NBHA of Kentucky Open Derby Classic
On February 18, 2013, the Fishing Creek Bird Dog Club held the NBHA of Kentucky Open Derby Classic at the Mike Branscum Farm in Nancy, Kentucky. Two accompanying stakes were also held – Open Shooting Dog and Open Puppy. There are many good people to thank, Mike and Linda Branscum for their hospitality. Joe Cammisa and Ken Taft for Judging, Red and his son Levi for helping in any way they could. We could not forget Jim Humphrey and his efforts to make this possible. We had a very successful trial with 59 entries from 8 states. The many owners and handlers cannot be forgotten because without them you can’t have a trial.
