2015 IB Parnell Trial
Sumter Co. Birdhunter�s Association held its IB Parnell Memorial Trial at Guard Rail Kennels in Pinewood, SC. These grounds are one of the favorites for local field trailers. We are especially grateful to Nick Mellon for allowing us to continue to hold trials here. The trial dates were February 10th � 11th. We ran 67 great dogs over two beautiful days. The judges were Allen Johnson, Randy Latty and Mark Barnett, all from South Carolina. These gentlemen did an outstanding job and their decisions were accepted very well.
The annual youth trial was held on Saturday as well. Cooper Parrott took top honors and Peyton Poston was awarded �Best Handler�. The kids had a really nice time and did a great job.
We would like to thank all the owners and handlers as well as the sponsors, Purina, Garmin and Gun Dog Supply.
