  • Counting down the days to the opening hunt Podcast!

    Great podcast! Talks about all things upland hunting! The anticipation is building up can’t wait for the podcast review of the first hunt of the season.

Now in idaho and we’re gonna hit the ground running shooting for all 9 native species of Idaho this season plus with some bonus California quail. Surprisingly the area withholds a great p... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Reaching the Bird Dog Pinnacle
Q: What does it take to reach the pinnacle of field trials and hunting dogs?
A combination of genetics, patient foundational training, consistent work with trusted trainers, and a long-term commitment to the sport; success relies on endurance, drive, and the right conditions, not just raw talent.
Second Chance Bird Dogs
Q: How did Second Chance Bird Dogs come to be and what was the turning point?
A fellow hunter challenged him to expand beyond a single dog, and after a hunt where a friend urged him to make it bigger, he founded the Facebook group the next day and never looked back.
Second Chance Bird Dogs
Q: Why did you choose a rescue dog for your first dog, Nitro, instead of a puppy from a breeder?
Growing up with GSPs, the founder found value in starting with a rescue because it allowed him to mold and train a dog to fit their life, and he discovered you don't need a puppy to build a capable hunting partner.
Habitat University
Q: What is Habitat University and who is it for?
Habitat University is a free, online, bite-sized training platform designed for students, biologists, landowners, chapters, contractors, land managers, and DIY habitat enthusiasts to learn about habitat and conservation, with courses organized by levels and state specifics.
Firearm Safety Training
Q: What does a class look like in Doug's program?
Doug describes a multi-night course with hands-on gun handling, field trips, a range of classroom activities, and live demonstrations to reinforce safe handling, culminating in a certification.
