Send us a textSpent 8 days chasing chukar, huns and valley quail in Oregon and Nevada. Lots of birds but not so great dog work. Still had a good time and can't wait to return next year. The quail saved the trip. Lots and lots of quail. No dual limits in this episode, but still a lot of fun. 

Need a chukar fix? How about a few valley quail too? I'll debrief a recent hunt of mine ... sort of a bookend thing, with stunning dog work at both ends. We pull a few thousand feet of elevation, miss a few birds and connect on others. I'll talk terrain, habitat, strategy and tactics plus some pure dumb luck too. A fascinating find or two, as well.

Join my friends Dave and Tom on our somewhat-annual gathering in the desert of southeast Oregon for the chukar and valley quail season opener. In what's become an informal reunion of new and old friends we reminisce on old dogs, an epic opening weekend, some foibles and incredible hunting. Trigger warning: there's a lot of philosophizing, too. But somewhere among the joking and joshing are lessons on why we hunt, what dogs do to us - and for us - and even a tip or two.

My former neighbor and current friend Tim Curry of Central Oregon Sporting Dog brings me up to speed on neighborhood news and a lot of practical advice on dog training and chukar hunting.

Perhaps no upland game bird embodies the ruggedness of western hunting better than the chukar. They inhabit the wild, mountainous terrain that defines the vast wilderness of the Great Basin, the high desert, and the inland northwest—places where water is scarce and survival depends on adaptation to the harsh environment. Because of the physical challenges associated with reaching chukar habitat, a certain element of machismo and bro-culture has come to define the subculture of chukar hunting. It's basically the CrossFit of the upland world. Chukar hunting isn't an easy stroll through a cut wheat field, but neither is it some sort of death-defying ascent limited to the youngest and fittest among us. A little bit of off-season hill training, a willingness to sweat a bit to reach the top of the next ridge, and plenty of water-carrying capacity are all you need to pursue these wild birds in their wild habitat. The extra effort required to reach them is rewarded with incredible views and a true sense of accomplishment when you do find them, even without a whack-n-stack tailgate photo.

Down to brass tacks we go with writer, editor, publisher Jim Matthews. He's been helping desert hunters find publicly-accessible game birds since the nineties, and he'll dial us in to finding some of the spots, strategies and tactics we need for valley and Gambel's quail, chukars, and the occasional mountain quail. Jim will take us from habits to habitat, what to look for when scouting (we could all do more of this, he says), and where to look when a place is "shot out." Jim also keys us to his four-step bird-finding formula, how rain, snow, wind, cold and heat affect bird hunting, and suggests a couple pieces of gear most of us don't carry but should. "Handle It" helps Jon Schwedler slow down his setter and use her nose better; and listeners share the length of their hunting trips - see where you stand!

He's a trainer, clinician, test judge, bird hunter and all-around good guy willing to help just about anyone with a bird dog. Among other things, we talk developing a steady dog, motivating dogs, introduction to birds, how much praise is enough, how to pass a hunting test, why two whistles are better than one. Phil's decades of practical experience has benefited generations of hunters and will pay off for you too.

A black slash slices over red-lined eyes, streaks down the breast, and connects at the keel as it cuts across the body of a flashy chukar partridge. Gray-blue feathers blend seamlessly into shades of dust-brown across its breast and back, but not its sides, where chukar apparently took some inspiration from zebras. Besides pheasants, chukars are arguably the most exotic-looking game birds in the United States. These birds have something in common: they didn't evolve here. Chukar are not native to North America. This bird's home range spans the Middle East and Asia, including Turkey, Jordan, Tehran, Iran, Kyrgyzstan, Nepal, and Mongolia. In their native range, these birds have a penchant for steep, rocky outcroppings in arid landscapes. Their preference for rugged places translates to their North American range as well. Since its introduction to the United States decades ago, chukar have become an iconic North American upland game bird, and those who hunt them are lovingly referred to as “not right in the head.” Let's take a gander at this species' life history, habitat preferences, and robust hunting culture.

Episode 118: Josh Meacham Presented by: Final Rise From Montana to Arizona, to pretty much everywhere inbetween, that is where you will find Josh Meachum. Trailing after is seven (soon to be eight) bird dogs, Josh is what you could describe as obsessed with bird hunting. With a weatlh and depth of knowledge on many aspects of bird hunting, Josh shares with us some great information on: Managing seven high energy bird dogs, His requirments for their behavior indoors,  Dominant bird finders, Snake avoidance, Pet insurance, getting a Brittany Spaniel, a comprehensive truck set up, some tasty nuggets on chukar hunting, memorable hunts and much much more.  

Yep, Chukar hunting is hard after all. Big surprise I know. After the first stop on our B3 cross country road trip we sat down to tell the tale. Bruce Potter, Nate Burbach, Nick Schade and myself recount the lessons learned and calories burned in pursuit of one of the most extreme upland bird hunts that there is.

I'm not sure if it was the trendiness of chukar hunting on social media or the fact that 2020 had everyone stuck at home and thinking of new things to try, but it sure seemed like chukar hunter numbers were at an all-time high this season in my neck of the woods. That even includes me, since this was my first season of seriously targeting chukar instead of just going a few times as a change of pace from quail or ducks. If we are truly serious about hunter recruitment and increasing hunter numbers, this growth in interest is great news! Even so, there's always a sharp pang of disappointment when you arrive at your favorite spot to find another hunter already there…even for the most enthusiastic supporters of R3 efforts. With the influx of upland bird hunters ought to come an influx of discussions about hunter etiquette while in the field. I make no claims of being an expert, neither in bird hunting nor in consistently good etiquette. I am sure that I have unintentionally done things that have annoyed another hunter or affected their day afield. But along with how-to articles and photos of our time in the mountains, I believe it's our responsibility to share perspectives on good etiquette to help new (and returning) hunters navigate some of these gray areas.

Wes Pierson is a captain and part owner of Bight Sportfishing. He has spent years and years searching for some of the biggest pelagic fish from tuna, swordfish and white seabass. He enjoys the dedication and knowledge it takes to seek out the elusive fish of white seabass. But Wes isn't just about fishing, on his day off, we decided to hike around in the high desert looking for Chukar and Quail. I liked his approach to being outside. His interest in adventure, animals, clean food and simply being outside more brought about a peace and wisdom that was refreshing to be around. If you have any desire to catch a White Seabass, I highly encourage you to seek out Bight Sportfishing and look up Wes on his instagram @onedowner

Episode 116: Mark Rusin Mark is a big wall climber, lobster diver and all-around outdoor focused individual. Living in Ojai, CA you wouldn't think "Chukar Hunter", but he is just that.  Mark was on a roadtrip, northbound along the Eastern Sierras and we were able to connect for a couple of days chasing Chukar in some of my favorite places. Having never experienced hunting over pointing dogs, it was a exciting opportunity to show it what all the rage is about. Join me this week as Mark and I discuss:  Similarities between Chukar Hunting and Lobster Diving, Climbing the nose of El Cap in Yosemite, Learning to Chukar hunt, getting his car burglarized while Chukar hunting, hunting with kids and much much more. Presented by: Final Rise

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. And it's all brought to you by: Sage & Braker Mercantile, Pointer shotguns, LandTrust.com, @midwayusa, #midwayusa, Midway USA, Mid Valley Clays and Shooting School, TrulockChokes, HiViz shooting systems, Purina Pro Plan Sport and FindBirdHuntingSpots.com.

030Episode 112: Jared Oakleaf Presented by Final Rise Wyoming may not register as a hot spot for Chukar hunting. I'd say, the locals prefer it that way.  Generally, when Chukar hunting gets good (Dec, Jan, Feb) most people shift their thoughts to milder temperatures. Wyoming is a wild place, and the residents have to be a little wild as well. Jared grew up in Lander, Wyoming. He now works for the Bureau of Land Management and now helps manage the public resources he grew up exploring. From Chukar, Huns, Sage Grouse and mountains Grouse, Jared and his Setter, Rhiza , are never without an adventure to pursue. Join me this week as Jared and I discuss: Chukar's distinct love for Marijuana , 1st Chukar hunts 19th Century Exploration Novels, public land, and much, much more ____________________________________________ If you enjoy the podcast please go and leave a rating on Apple Podcasts ____________________________________ Connect with me: Email: Upchukarpodcast@gmail.com Instagram: @upchukar  Website: Upchukar.com
