Contrasting Marks
In this podcast, we look at why contrasting marks can be difficult to untrained retrievers.
A contrasting mark is conceptually very different than a previous mark. Contrasting marks could be back to back singles in a Junior hunt test, or a memory mark in Senior or Master hunt tests.
Sometimes a hunt test setup looks like it will be easy. Yet it turns out to be difficult to inexperienced retrievers due to contrasting marks.
