Go ahead and laugh at my silly questions <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
In the video, it shows the handler raising the prey object overhead while telling the dog to sit, then dropping it before the dog loses interest and continuing...
Now, when I raise the tug, Kelly has learned to sit and focus on it for a couple seconds (at a time). However, when I drop the tug, rather than grab it out of the air, she looks at it, then at me like "ok, you dropped it, now make it move!"

You need to allow the dog to catch the tug more often while you are making drive. The dog should understand that if it work a little harder it can catch the prey.
By not allowing the do to catch the tug while you make drive you are actually reduycing drive.
