Dive Bomb Industries Bumper Bomber 4800

The Dive Bomb Industries Bumper Bomber 4800 allows you to consistently throw bumpers 50+ yards and teach your retriever to handle longer marks. It is also a great way to save yourself the tired arms and beat back with your over-eager duck dog who doesn’t understand quitting. The overhead release will keep your retriever focused on the sky and not at your side if you are slinging bumpers underhand. The high-strength, lightweight aluminum shaft weighs just under one pound, making it easy to carry in and out of the field, and it also has a durable black powder coat finish for all-weather work.

Dokken's DeadFowl Trainer Mallard

Dokken's Deadfowl trainers are truly fundamental for training any duck dog. Tom Dokken developed this device to teach dogs how to hold and carry game birds properly— the hard head and bottom, married with a soft, durable body, educate them quickly. When a youngster starts shaking the dummy, the head gives him a whop on the noggin' and the grab and shake problem is remedied soon. The soft body can also be injected with scent to boost realism.
