Description
The DT Systems BL509 Quail/Pigeon Launcher is a complete system with launcher, transmitter and receiver, so you can start remote bird training right out of the box. To load, lower the spring arms and net into the basket, open the side trap door and slide the bird into the net. The trap door also lets you take out and keep birds you didn’t launch.
DT Systems BL509: why the BL509
Training birds aren’t cheap, and loading through the trap door means fewer escapes. A safety latch lets you load at home and carry it to the field without it going off, and the quiet launch won’t spook your dog. The transmitter is easy to use and controls up to 16 launchers at up to 700 yards. The receiver has a push-button on/off and a beeper so you can find your launchers after the session.
Training with it
Load the bird through the trap door, put the safety on to carry it and take it off once the launcher is in place. Work your dog into the wind and only release when it does what you want. Use the beeper to find the launcher afterward, and change where you put it each time so your dog hunts instead of memorizing. Hand-thrown or planted birds are unpredictable, and young dogs often learn to creep or chase. With a remote launcher the bird only flies when your dog gets it right, so steadiness comes faster and you can train alone.
It suits pointing and flushing dog owners who want a complete, easy remote launcher, and trainers who like trap-door loading that saves birds. Add more launchers to the same transmitter with the DT Systems BL505 add-on launcher. Training on bigger birds? See the DT Systems BL709 Pheasant Launcher.
