You are only allowed to "work" the number of birds in the quota for your division.  If a bird is missed or not shot at but produced by the handler or the dog it will count towards your quota. Example if you are running in singles and your dog flushes/points or bumps a bird and you miss the bird you will only be allowed to hunt for 2 more birds.

Electronic collars are allowed in all divisions

No score will be given for remaining shells or bagged birds

For safety reasons no hunter shall have more than two shells in his gun at any time

No dog is allowed to leave the field boundries - This means that if a bird is shot and falls out of bounds no points will be given for the retrieve.

A complete set of rules can be ordered through BDC on their website at:
