Donnie's win photoScott's run started well with an outrun to the left. When Maid started to come in, Scott yelled, "HEY!" and that worked well enough for a good redirect. She lifted and had a decent line on her fetch but the sheep squirted by the fetch panels and then ran off to the left of the field. Scott knew she was way off and would never be able to turn back from that side of the field (a difficult turn back even when things were going right) so he had no choice but to turn the sheep around and take them back to near the turn back post when he got the sheep settled, Maid turned back like a good thing. No problem on that outrun and then made her fetch panels. They made all their drive panels and then moved into the shedding ring. They had a nice shed and got the BEST SHED TROPHY!

Congrats! Donnie's runs were great to watch. Wish I could have stayed for the double lift - Alas... had to return to work and "real life."
