Best
There’s two bird/dog podcasts in my opinion. Birdshot & Project Upland. Nick your excellent at what you do.
Quality
Podcast is great and have been listening to it from the early on. Very informative to beginners and seasoned hunters! Thanks for your hard work.
Love the podcast
This podcast is great and all hunters should listen to the helpful information that is offered. Whether you are a big game hunter or just a small game enthusiast this podcast will grab you interest and leave you wanting more. I have hunted ruffies for the past 5 years and recently moved to Saskatchewan and got into the sharp-tails this year with my kids. It was been so much fun Qing shooting on the open prairie.
