I've heard stories of people working their dogs in ditches for this reason.

My buddy already did that his dog will run 200 + yards in a ditch there and back and never come out the ditch but when in a open field he wants to angle off big time

Just put one in the middle of the pile to give him something look at

And should you mark blinds with this also to build his confidence

No young dog just starting transition runs straight lines! That is the whole point of transition. It is when you move from the yard to pattern blinds that you begin to teach the dog to go straight, and it's usually very ugly early on. You need the pick a good system, and there are several, that take you and the pup from yard work through transition. There is no magic drill.

I like the poly stake. I used driveway reflectors with a small ribbon of survey tape in the past.
