The cock pheasant is the most visually striking bird in the British shooting field — vivid plumage, long sweeping tail, and a profile that's instantly recognisable. The Dog & Field Original Clone® Cock Pheasant Bird Launcher Dummy captures that profile in award-winning HD photographic feather print canvas, giving your dog the most realistic cock pheasant training experience available from a launcher. The long tail creates a genuinely different retrieve challenge to the hen — a dog that can carry a cock pheasant cleanly, without dragging the tail, is a dog that's ready for the driven line. Fits all dummy launchers with reduced recoil whilst maintaining distance.

The most realistic cock pheasant launcher dummy available — ideal for driven game preparation and training dogs to carry the long-tailed cock cleanly.
Why We Recommend It
The cock pheasant's long tail is one of the most underappreciated training challenges in driven game work. A dog that grips too far back will drag the tail; a dog that grips too far forward will struggle with the weight distribution. The Original Clone® Cock Pheasant dummy replicates this challenge in training, giving your dog repeated exposure to the correct grip and carry technique before they encounter the real thing on a driven day. The HD photographic feather print engages the dog's visual recognition instincts, and the launcher compatibility means you can train at realistic distances. At £21.99 and rated 5 stars by handlers who've used it, this is the driven game launcher dummy that serious handlers choose.

Bailey Says 🐾
The cock pheasant. The king of the driven day. That tail. That plumage. That absolute confidence as it comes over the guns at full speed. And then it's your job to retrieve it cleanly, without dragging the tail, without gripping too hard, and delivered perfectly to hand. This dummy trains exactly that. The HD print is so accurate that I genuinely had to remind myself it wasn't real. The long tail is the key — it teaches you where to hold, how to balance the bird, and how to carry it with the dignity the cock pheasant deserves. My friends, if your dog is going to work driven days, this is non-negotiable. 🐾

How To Use
Load the Cock Pheasant dummy into your compatible dummy launcher following the launcher's instructions. For driven game preparation, fire at distances that replicate the falls your dog will encounter on a driven day — building from shorter marked retrieves to longer blind retrieves as confidence develops. Pay particular attention to how your dog carries the dummy — the long tail profile will naturally encourage the dog to find the correct grip point. A dog that carries this dummy cleanly, with the tail clear of the ground and delivered to hand without dropping, is a dog that's ready for the driven line. Introduce progressively alongside the Hen Pheasant dummy to prepare your dog for both birds they'll encounter on a driven day.
Care Guide
- Brush off mud and debris after use and allow to air dry
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the HD print
- Inspect the launcher attachment point after repeated use
- Do not allow unsupervised chewing — this is a precision training tool, not a toy
- Replace if the canvas becomes significantly damaged or the launcher attachment shows wear
Professional Insight
Training Academy Tip 💡
Watch where your dog grips the cock pheasant dummy on the retrieve — this tells you everything about how they'll handle the real bird. The ideal grip is just forward of centre, allowing the dog to carry the dummy with the tail clear of the ground and the weight balanced. If your dog consistently grips too far back, use short hand-thrown retrieves to encourage them to adjust their grip before progressing to launcher distances. A dog that delivers the cock pheasant dummy cleanly to hand, tail up and grip correct, is a dog that will impress on the driven line.

FAQs
What's the difference between the Cock and Hen Pheasant launcher dummies?
The Cock Pheasant (370g) has the distinctive long tail and vivid plumage of the male bird, creating a different retrieve challenge — particularly around grip position and carrying the tail clear of the ground. The Hen Pheasant (380g) is slightly heavier, smaller, and more compact. On a driven day your dog will encounter both — many handlers train with both dummies to prepare for the full range of retrieves.
Which launchers is this compatible with?
The Cock Pheasant Bird Launcher Dummy fits all standard dummy launchers, including the Bisley Dummy Launcher and the Sporting Saint Handheld Dummy Launcher. Always follow your launcher manufacturer's instructions for safe loading and use.
Does this have a swinging head like the Hen Pheasant and Partridge dummies?
The Cock Pheasant dummy features the Original Clone® HD photographic feather print canvas design. For the articulated swinging head, wings, and feet feature, see the Hen Pheasant and Partridge Bird Launcher Dummies in the same range.
Why train with both cock and hen pheasant dummies?
On a driven day, your dog will retrieve both cocks and hens — and they present genuinely different challenges. The cock's long tail requires a specific grip and carry technique; the hen's more compact body requires a softer hold. Training with both ensures your dog is prepared for every retrieve they'll encounter on the driven line.
