The third series of Flight C has was a water triple with water blind up the center. The setting consisted of a small pond with the water's edge just eight yards from the line.
Beyond the pond is a field of pecan trees with tilled strips of soil for food plots between the trees. The left-hand bird is thrown first to the right from a small pole building covering a wood pile and landed just shy of a tilled strip 70 yards from the line. The area of the fall for the middle bird flyer shot to the right is either landing in the tilled strip of land or alternately the mowed green grass approximately 136 yards from the line. The right-hand go bird is thrown flat to the left landing 58 yards from the line on the far end of the pond. The direct line to the go bird includes a slight sliver of water up front and then a small piece of water just before picking up the bird.
The blind is directly up the middle of the test halfway between the left and middle bird. The bird is placed at the base of a very large bushy tree.
Originally the test was set with the right-hand mark being thrown right angle back. After the three test dogs had difficulty with that mark, the judges changed it to a flat throw left to provide more clarity to the picture.
