The pointer group is established for the purpose of training personal gun dogs of the pointing variety. We welcome all dogs, regardless of breeding, if registered or not. Our members have a wealth of experience training in many different ways and many are eager to help the less experienced bring their dog to a satisfying performance level. We have a very diverse mix of pointing dogs in the group, from young pups to old seasoned, mature dogs. You name the breed and we probably have it or have had it. Members enjoy our monthly fun trials which are a friendly, inexpensive, low level competition, which simulates actual hunting. Some of our members are interested in a more competitive event, and for them we sponsor a National Shoot To Retrieve Association trial in early spring each year. We support our members participation in other hunting performance oriented activities beyond our scope, including hunting ability tests and field trials put on by other organizations such as NSTRA, NAVDA, AKC, American Field and various breed clubs.

The pointer group meets each Thursday evening at the training grounds on Carpenter Road at Missouri Headwaters State Park, between Three Forks and Logan. Sessions run from 5:30 p.m. till dark, the first Thursday after daylight savings time starts in April, and end when the bird hunting season opens in September. Training birds are usually available at a nominal cost and training equipment, such as launchers etc. is available for use during the sessions. Other events may include AKC hunt tests, a snake breaking put on by a professional trainer and a club Upland Challenge open to all breeds, flushing and pointing. Special training instruction is provided on selected Thursday evenings remaining include on April 24  "training the first year"; May 22 "animal traps that may be encountered in the field and your dog's safety".

Fun Trials which are very informal field trials within the Club membership to be held Saturdays starting about 7:00 A.M.:  May 17, June 21, July 19, and August 16.

Hunters have varying ideas of what is the best bird dog for them, and how the dog should be trained to perform. We respect that and don’t try to promote any one breed or training program over any other. We have some very experienced, knowledgeable members who are very willing to help the newcomer, should she or he ask for help.

We are a family oriented group and some of our women trainers bring their husbands and children out. Some don’t. The same goes for the men.
