    Friday Fave: Bird hunting road trip! Nevada and California wild birds

    Enjoy this trip into the field - maybe you need a hunting fix about now. Buckle up for a first-hand report on a recent wingshooting road trip in search of quail and chukars ... and better weather. We'll be hunting Nevada and California and learning a lot. Some astounding dog work and fascinating observations on bird behavior and habitat, especially in the Golden State. Strategies need adjusting in the high desert of California, where cactus is king and rattlesnakes roam all year ... even finding birdy places requires a different point of view. "Fix It" covers some practical pre-hunt tips and listeners share some fascinating dog and bird hunting trivia. You get a chance to enter to win a pair of Pyke Gear Dakota pants (value $230) in our furfeathersfriends.com sweepstakes, too, but only if you listen and know the Word of the Week.

    Bird hunting debrief: pheasants from A to Z ... a very deep and rambling dive

    Thanks to those avid wingshooting fanatics who requested this one at Pheasant Fest. I've done some homework (maybe too much), dug deep to give you a picture of America's favorite game bird. From habits to habitat, life history to some of the threats, a bit of politics, and a lot of fun facts and trivia. Hopefully, something in here is of value to you.  And it's all brought to you by: Mid Valley Clays and Shooting School, CableGangz, TrulockChokes, Pointer shotguns, USA Clay Target League, Purina Pro Plan Sport and FindBirdHuntingSpots.com.

    Insider: consumer's guide to bird hunting preserves and lodges

    In my survey, you tell me most of you have, or will, pay to hunt. So why not get your money's worth, whether it's a day trip to a local farm, or that trip-of-a-lifetime to a fancy resort? I've been to a hundred hunting and fishing lodges to make TV shows, and have seen it all. I'll share my experiences, and help you navigate the dangerous waters of booking, pricing, expectations, habitat and lodging options. You'll have a better idea of what you can do, what you'll pay, how to tip your guide, and why pen-raised birds can be great, okay and dismal. Just like buying a new truck, much of your experience is dependent on you - from inquiring about a place, to negotiating price, to what your guide should (and shouldn't) do. Listen carefully and somewhere in here is a tip or two you'll be glad you heard. Insider editions are brought to you by CableGangz tie-out systems.

    Friday Fave: Chukar hunter’s handbook: bird hunting experts’ advice plus my 34 years of questionable success

    Here's your chance to get caught up on chukar hunting basics, reprised from September, 2023: I've fielded so many questions over the years, I decided it was time to offer up a primer on hunting these fascinating, mystifying game birds. I've asked the dumb questions to smart hunters, learned a few things the hard way, and spent more than a few nights puzzling over their habits and habitat. If you've ever wondered where to find them, how to prepare, get your dog trained up, successful strategies and tactics from shot size to e-collar tricks, here's your starting point. Then, start walking. Uphill. Listeners tell us where they're going on opening day, and "Road Trip" offers some alternative information sources to get you on public-access land.

    Pro bird dog trainers Ronnie & Susanna Smith on composure, puppy development and getting the most from your dog

    The Smith family name is legendary in dog-training circles and among bird hunters for good reason. From Delmar and Ronnie Sr. to the next generation, Rick and Ronnie, and now Ronnie's wife Susanna, most modern training methods started in their yards and fields. We'll cover "training to the mind" of the pup, and why setting a mental agenda in a dog are primary goals in their training. How to observe a dog, think before you act, and keeping in mind what's important to a dog ... how to balance training with a dog's ability to focus ... and channeling prey drive to benefit you both, are some of the topics we cover.  Special thanks to Pyke Gear for hosting the Upland Nation podcast in their booth!

    Fave Fridays: Pro chukar guide on wild birds, dogs, strategies & tactics

    Here's a take on chukar hunting worth re-visiting from January, 2024 ... Wild chukars, Huns, sharptails and sage grouse are Ryan Aune's domain, roaming the uplands of Wyoming as an Orvis-endorsed wingshooting guide. He and his string of 10 dogs (setters, shorthairs and a springer) take clients into some of the roughest, most challenging terrain in the West, and he's got a few lessons for us. We cover the relative merits of setters versus shorthairs, learn about bird behavior, habitat, and he'll share his strategies and tactics for getting closer to birds. We'll talk conditioning dogs, training and pad care too. "Handle It" offers a new in-field energy supplement for dogs, and listeners share their own training goals for 2024.

    Chukar-crazed Eric Forrester talks wingshooting, video, public access and how to hunt 'em

    If you haven't watched his YouTube videos from chukar country (and more), you're missing out. This guy takes DIY bird hunting - and video - to a whole 'nother level. You'll learn from Eric Forrester this week as he joins me after a rollicking season of new species, new states and fascinating challenges. From new dogs, to tough conditions, low bird numbers to spectacular vistas, Eric takes us on a fulfilling and challenging journey around the West in search of chukars, Huns, sharptails, and scaled quail. We learn how to find new places to hunt, strategies and tactics, habitat types, even get some shooting suggestions. Eric bursn the boot leather and puts in the miles so you don't have to. And should you decide to climb the hills for devil birds or any other species, his advice is priceless. "Fix It" is a heads-up for those planning to visit another state next season - caution! And listeners show their comedy-writing chops with a caption for one of my photos. You decide if they're worth a laugh or two.
