Setting and Running a Bird Course for Hunt Tests and Field Trials

Willow Creek's Northwater Grouser is being developed to run cover dog trials and he is almost finished with his AKC Master Hunter title. In this video, Chad Hines sets the training course with birds and then runs Grouser.
*Update, May 21, 2022 - Grouser finished his MH title!

Really looking forward to getting my willow creek pup this summer. I've done AKC hunt tests (Jr and Sr) but what's the difference between that and a cover dog?
Thanks

Cover dog is American Field trials and it is on wild birds, grouse and woodcock in heavy cover. Hunt tests are planted birds, dogs don't have to run as big, junior and senior dogs don't have to be as steady as they do for master or field trials. AKC Hunt Tests are individual, judged against a standard. Trials are competitive and judged against other dogs (but also need to meet certain standards).
