Starting off  the fall 2013 season in the same style he ended the spring campaign, Full Blast won the DuBois Open Shooting Dog stake on August 24 with Dave Hughes at the helm.  “Jeb” came off his 1st in the Lost Pond OSD (34 entrants) in May to continue showing himself to be a dog that discriminating owners will want to consider in the upcoming breeding season.   The DuBois club runs their trial in a mix of woods, brush and open fields.  “Jeb” applied himself to the varied cover running a strong  forward hunting effort and notching one find.  “Jeb” was high and tight through the flush and shot on this encounter.  He finished going away in the near 80-degree weather having drawn a middle of the afternoon brace.  Particularly impressive was “Jeb’s” smooth, effortless looking, get-over-the-ground coverage with the snappy, cracky style his sire, Pennstar, was known for.
