HRC's around Cenla/Lafy

I've trained several labs that were jam up duck dogs in the past but never had any desire to pursue field trials or hunt tests because I was a broke college kid. Now all I do is work, hunt, and whatever the wife has me lined up around the house.

I have a young pup that I feel is ready for the tests, Any of you guys in the area want to share some pointers/etiquette with the HRC tests (what the judges look at, what's taboo, what's expected, etc)

I'm probably going to just join one of the local chapters with hopes of working and learning the ins and outs of the HRC scene.

Thanks
