Avery HexaBumper Hunting Dog Training Dummies

Avery HexaBumper Hunting Dog Training Dummies are the first in training bumper innovation in years! The HexaBumper's 6-sided design eliminates many of the disadvantages of traditional round bumpers and holds up to the daily routines of pro trainers. The raised V-grips let your dog get a solid grip, while the firm texture reduces your dog's tendency to chomp. A flasher provides a high-visibility strobe effect, and the included throw rope makes it easy to throw for distance. Valve-free to ensure it doesn't get water logged. Features: 6 flat sides with raised V-grips for an easier hold Firm bumper reduces chomping tendency Flasher produces a highly visible strobe effect Valveless design won't take on water Throw rope included Sizes: 2" HexaBumpers: Fine for normal training of large dogs. Easier for young or small dogs to retrieve. Great when training with a lot of bumpers. 3" HexaBumpers: Great for long marks as used in field trials and hunt tests. Perfect size and weight to condition dogs for real ducks. Easier for dogs to see at much further distances. Pro Tips: Round up your bumpers and store them in a bag or bucket as the end of each training session. A bumper that is lying around becomes an invitation to a young dog to chew on. Not only is this negative reinforcement to your dog's mark training but it is almost sure to get you an expensive and unnecessary trip to your vet's office. Training saturations change often and can vary from 1 mark to the next, even in the same set up, so make sure you have several of each color bumper when you head out for training. This simple rule of thumb will help you maximize your training time and efficiency.
