MVR Macfarlane Earl's Black Diamond

Lucky is his call name, but really I'm the lucky one. Lynne Barnett (bottom left) raised him from a puppy and in 2016 Lucky was the Gordon Setter Club of America (GSCA) Derby Dog of the year. She transferred ownership to me early in 2018 and Trena Cardwell (upper left and right center) took over his field trial training.

Eureka, KS, Nov. 2018: Lucky won the Open Walking Gun Dog Championship at the GSCA National Field Trials.

Bandera, TX, Feb. 2019: Lucky is off to a great start winning 2nd in Open Gun Dog at the GSCA 'Setter Only' Field Trial. Cindy Findley, one of the judges, shared her notes with me - "stunning point."  Hankinson, N.D., May 2019: Lucky took second in a 20 dog entry at the North Dakota Pointing Dog Club Field Trial.  Lucky took a third in OLGD in Texas March 2020 before the trialing season shut down due to Covid-19 concerns.
