GOOD Dog Work, POOR Shooting! Deep Dive Into Different Ruffed Grouse Covers 

Beautiful video thank you for sharing ❤

I recently lost my fifth Brit and found your content. It’s helping me heal until I can find the time for another pup. Your love of your dogs is so apparent and the quality of the videos is exemplary.

I like these vids because really helps me understand the type of habitat I should look for, so thanks

Great 👍🏻 Videos ….. Thank You for all of that editing ! Fun to see the dogs work …… the discussion regarding the cover variations was helpful !!! Looking forward to September ‘22 !! Merry Christmas 🎄 to You ✨🙏🏻💫

I like this format. good stuff

Your grouse hunting videos are the best on the net. You hit some tough shots. I've been there and hit some hail Mary's and miss trail birds too.

I really enjoy your bird hunting videos. Would like to hear a little history on you and your dogs and guns you use. Your pretty successful when you hunt would like to know what got you there. Small video on you and your partners before a hunt would be nice. Keep up the videos their really great full of info. Thanks again.

Thanks for the video. Great info. Still hoping it will be good down here in Georgia. Love the dogs. Take care of them and yourself

Fantastic man! They just keep getting better and more refined. I love this one for so many reasons: the cover tutorial, continued awesome dog work and general demeanor you have in the woods on the hunt. We’d get along really well in the woods I’m sure. I do the same thing for dog less hunters, describing the entire experience. You have taken it to a new level with the video quality, editing quality, voice over narration. It’s obvious you are passionate about upland hunting in it’s entirety. The plus on the misses is you are giving great video footage of flushing birds which many don’t see for more than 2-3 seconds so there’s that! As you know, we all miss! I would so much like to get into more birds as my covers have all the ingredients but habitat encroachment is pressuring the populations. I have those same head scratch moments where you say “the only thing missing is the bird!” As Paul a Fuller “Bird Dogs Afield” likes to quote “Birds are where you find them”. Keep up the great work. Love seeing such a dedicated young ambassador for upland hunting. 👍🏻👏🏻. When you hunt those big Aspen stands with the trails do you generally do an out n back, retracing your “out”. It’s such big cover. Not used to that in southern NH, ME. Need to get up to northern parts of the states. Thanks, Daren

Very nice video. I love the narration about habitat, I'll take that information on our annual trip to the U.P. That trail bird miss at 28:15 hurts, I know, I've been there. BTW, nice hold and retrieve to heel by both your dogs, good training pays off.

Absolutely love the content! Gonna try and hit the grouse woods one more time tomorrow here in northern mn

It's a great video👍

An outstanding hunting video on it own. But adding the analysis plus self criticism and dad disappointment makes this just over the top. Great job. I don't hunt with a dog but intend to as i age so the thought process here is very helpful. It also shows newer hunters how we are always thinking in the woods; if youre not thinking then you will get caught unprepared. By You I clearly mean Me. Looks like you have the auto for Woodcock and Double for Grouse? Lastly, if you can, throw in some crop digestion in a video; i like to see what they have been eating.

Nice film, cover looks like where I hunt in Northcentral WI. Are you using a GoPro with head mount to film?

Love your videos, I’m a new subscriber.. can you tell what kennel you use for your Brits? I miss mine ALOT and am considering getting another

Make many many hunt videos with your SxS. ❤

You guys hunt northern lower or the u.p. for grouse. Don't worry about the misses we all have those days the dogs give us dirty looks

I'm curious: Why do you decide to switch between guns in the middle of a hunt? It would take a lot for me to move away from a SxS.

Whats sxs 20GA you're using ?

What bell do you use?

Are these brittaneys or springers?

What state do you hunt?

What kind of dogs are these?!

Sucked in there...always follow the dog....you missed.
