The newest product in the Bird's-Up! line from Retriever Specialists, is the new Bird's-Up “Slinger”. Outstanding performance in a low profile package. This launcher is capable of launching 2 inch bumpers, 3 inch bumpers, Dokken Mallards or Mallard ducks. The useable distance to the launcher for marks is limited only by the range of the remote release system you use to activate the launcher.
The Birds-Up Slinger consistently launches, time after time by either the manual push button (optional) or a wireless remote control. Put the object in flight when YOU want with your Dogtra, Tri-Tronics or other remote release system that will operate the standard box launchers. All of us at Retriever Specialists, Inc care about the safety of the dogs and their owners. The new Bird's-Up! “Slinger” launcher is very easy to carry afield and hide in natural cover. There is a full forty five degrees of adjustability on the angle for the flight of the bird or bumper. With the twelve-volt fully sealed rechargeable battery (sold separately) you can operate all day without recharging.
The Birds-Up "Slinger" model was used in the SRS tests in Hutto, Texas March 8 - 11, Stuttgart, AR March 22 - 25, and Shelbyville, KY April 5 - 8. The field of retrievers started out with 100 dogs. The "Slingers" were used in all three series. The slingers have now launched over 1,400 marks and did so without a malfunction or NO-Birds.
