I think the main argument in this is Raymond is not calling your dog bad. I'm sure you have a great hunting dog. You keep challenging him to a blind. What you are really challenging him to is a 400yd wild goose chase. By definition a blind is where send a dog on a controlled run a dog to a spot where a bird or bumper is placed and you do it in as few cast as possible. The main purpose is for you and your dog to work together as a team and he listen to you even though sometimes he wants to do different (ie poison bird) and you handle him where you know the bird is.
With all that being said again since I see you are very sensitive when it comes to your dog, I'm not downplaying your dog and I see you have AMEN's from the choir that your dog can hunt your marsh very well. All I'm saying is if you challenge somebody to a 10K blind make sure you fully understand what a blind is.
