Podcasts about Upland hunting

I finally had Andrew on the podcast. He's one of the regulars that travel around Michigan shooting the SxS events. We mostly stayed on task. Thank you to our sponsorsAspen Thicket Grouse Dogs aspenthicketgrousedogs.comPine Hill Gun Dogs phkscllc@gmail.comSecond Chance Bird dogs Field Armor fieldarmorusa.comWild Card Outfitters and Guide Service wildcardoutdoors.com

On this episode we continue our species specific series. Mountian Grouse in Montana is this weeks focus.  Primarily we talk about Blue Grouse but we do talk about both Spruce and Ruffed grouse also. George hasnt hunted them before but is very interested in them, so he asked Wess and Myself the questions that he was curious about and Wess and I did our best to answer.

In this episode in my series of Tales of Accidental Bird Dogs, I chat with Vanessa Carmean about the unexpected journey that started with her first German Shorthaired Pointer, Camo. After years with Labradors and a family health scare, Vanessa and her husband chose a pointing breed—though she had no idea what she was getting into. What began as a plan to do a little dove hunting turned into something much bigger. Vanessa shares how Camo's first Junior Hunter test revealed his natural talent, sparking her curiosity and passion for pointing dog training. Armed with YouTube and determination, she began training for Senior Hunter. There were lots of ups and downs along the way, and she eventually added more GSPs to the mix and became a breeder, hunt test judge, and field trial judge. We talk about her learning curve, her love for the sport, and the value of mentorship. Vanessa's story is a great reminder that kind words and encouragement can truly shape someone's path in the bird dog world.

In this episode we switch it up a bit, still talking bird dogs and bird dog training/development but from a tools provider perspective. Mike Neiduski owns Ugly Dog Hunting, and as an avid uplander builds his business based on training tools, devices, and apparel that make sense and work for him and his customers. His product lines aim at longevity, usefulness, and not overselling the unneccessary stuff we all seem to get early on in our training lives!!  You can find all things Ugly Dog Hunting at www.uglydoghunting.com or on Facebook or Instagram @uglydoghunting. 

In this week's episode, I interviewed Amanda Gruhn about her incredible win at the German Shorthaired Pointer Club of America's National Amateur Gun Dog Championship this year. Amanda shares the inspiring journey of how she and her dog Penny prepared for this prestigious field trial—from early training techniques to the challenges they overcame along the way. We dive into the strategies that helped make Penny rock-solid in the field, the importance of handling, and how Amanda dealt with her nerves while at the event. Whether you're a seasoned field trialer or just like a good success story, you'll certainly enjoy this episode. You can follow Amanda on Instagram @drakeandpenny.

In the second installment of Tales of Accidental Bird Dogs, we sit down with Cristina Ralph, a passionate dog owner and trainer who's fully embraced the world of bird dogs. Cristina is the proud owner of three dogs: two German Shorthaired Pointers, Greta and Blaise, and a Deutsch Kurzhaar named Wednesday. Before diving into bird dog training, Cristina spent years working with Siberian Huskies in pulling sports. When she sought a versatile running partner, she found exactly what she was looking for – and then some – with Greta, her first GSP. Cristina shares her journey from the early days of training Greta for Field Dog Junior tests, where she made plenty of hilarious mistakes, to now, when she's fully immersed in the world of bird dog training. With the addition of Blaise and Wednesday, Cristina's dedication to her bird dogs has only deepened, and she's now gearing up for a new adventure—breeding Wednesday. You can follow Cristina on Instagram at @gretablaiseandwednesday. Her kennel website is www.vomzamora.ca .

In this episode, we dive into the world of AKC hunting tests for retrievers, with a focus on the Junior level. Originally designed for retriever breeds like Labradors and Goldens, these tests are open to pointing breeds as well. If your dog has a solid retrieve and a strong obedience foundation, they could be a great fit for these tests. I sit down with Jerry DeRose, an experienced AKC hunting test judge from Minnesota, to break down the different components of the test and share tips on how to set your dog up for success. To get in touch with Jerry, find him on Facebook or visit his kennel page. The Accidental Bird Dog Podcast is sponsored by OnX Hunt and Boss Shotshells. We are part of the HerUpland Podcast Network.

This episode kicks off a new series for the podcast! Every few episodes, I will be featuring interviews with other people who got bird dogs as pets and then got into hunting later because of their dogs. The first tale of a fellow accidental bird dog owner is Sara Kline. Sara lives in Alaska with her three dogs: a vizsla named Jack, and two Deutsch Drahthaars named Dicky and Rufus. Sara originally got Jack as a running buddy when she lived in England, but it wasn't long before Jack decided he liked pointing pheasants along their runs, too. Sara has grown a lot in her journey training her dogs and is very forthcoming about the mistakes she's made along the way and how she's trying to use the lessons she's learned with her new puppy. Sara's story is very relatable and I know you will enjoy it!  You can follow Sara on Instagram at @journeyswithgundogs. The Accidental Bird Dog Podcast is sponsored by OnX Hunt and Boss Shotshells.

Scott shares his journey from upland hunting with his son to creating the Duck Camp—a welcoming space where families and hunters can connect, learn, and enjoy the outdoors. Scott discusses the challenges beginners face, from learning how to scout and set up decoys to managing expectations in the field. He highlights the importance of mentorship and education in building a supportive hunting community and shares valuable insights gained from his experience. The episode also delves into Scott's dedication to conservation, including his work with organizations like Ducks Unlimited to support wetland preservation. His hands-on approach and passion for creating a positive, inclusive environment make this conversation both informative and inspiring for anyone curious about duck hunting or the intersection of hunting and conservation. The episode concludes with an exciting announcement about two upcoming Her Outdoor Journey retreats at the Duck Camp. These retreats are designed to introduce women to waterfowl and snow goose hunting in a supportive, fun, and educational setting. The Intro to Waterfowl Retreat (January 24-26, 2025) focuses on the basics of waterfowl hunting, including blind techniques, decoy placement, and scouting. The Intro to Snow Goose Hunting Retreat (February 7-9, 2025) offers a similar foundation while exploring the unique challenges and rewards of snow goose hunting. Both retreats provide an incredible opportunity to build new skills, connect with like-minded women, and enjoy the camaraderie of the outdoors. With expert guidance and plenty of laughter, these events promise to be unforgettable experiences. To reserve your spot, click the link here. Spaces are limited, so don't wait!

This is the last episode of 2024! Thanks to everyone who has listened this year. In this episode, I answer questions about Zara and Lanka, the priority I place on wild bird hunting, and what I'm looking forward to in 2025.

In this episode, I interviewed Carl Correra, who is an AKC field trial judge and competitor. Last year, I had the honor of watching Carl and his 12 year old GSP, Fancy, participate in the inaugural AKC Master Hunter Excellent test. Fancy tore up the course, was steady as a rock, and had all the participants cheering for her. As someone who has unintentionally been competing with an older dog due to our late start, I've found myself being worried about her age. I think there's a lot of misconception out there about what is possible for a dog who is 10+. Carl and I discuss considerations to keep your older bird dog going strong even as they age.  You can email find Carl on Facebook or send him an email: cvcorrera@yahoo.com.  The Accidental Bird Dog Podcast is sponsored by OnX Hunt and Boss Shotshells.

In this episode, I discuss my training journey with Zara, sharing the real, sometimes unfortunate mistakes I made along the way—and the valuable lessons I learned from them. From challenges with steadiness and retrieving to issues with honoring, duck searches, and the blind retrieve, I dive into the struggles that come with training your first dog. The good news is, I learned a lot and managed to recover from most of these setbacks—though it certainly took time! Now, as I start training my new puppy, Lanka, I'm applying these lessons to make sure I do things differently this time around. Tune in to hear my honest reflections and get insights you can use to avoid common training pitfalls with your own bird dog.

This is the companion to the previous episode, Dealing with Failure. It might seem weird to talk about "dealing" with success, because, after all, isn't success a good thing in the context of dog sports? But success is not always as straightforward as you might think.    The Accidental Bird Dog Podcast is sponsored by OnX Hunt and Boss Shotshells. We are part of the HerUpland Podcast Network.

Man alive! What a trip! On our last night of the Grouse tour all of us sat down to recap the highs and lows of our trip.  Central Montana was lousy with birds this year and boy did we need it after chasing mountain birds. There were plentiful numbers of Sage Grouse. The best numbers of Huns and Sharptails that I have ever seen in the country. And we even found a rattlesnake and lived to tell the tale!

Well boys and girls it aint easy out west! This hunt has been a good reminder that not every day is easy. In fact day 1 of this hunt was brutal. But we kept after it and found some birds.

If you're participate in hunting events long enough with your bird dog, "failure" is inevitable – meaning, not passing a test, earning a placement, or failing to meet your expectations. In this episode, I talk about some failures I've experienced and how I dealt with them. Realizing how to learn from failure and using it to make you and your dog better is important. Hopefully this episode will provide some useful tips for the next time you're dealing with some disappointment after competing with your dog.

This episode is part 2 going into detail about the Versatile Hunting Dog Federation (VHDF). Kyle Hough chats with me about the three levels of testing and what is required at each level. While the tests have similarities to the NAVHDA and JGHV systems, there are distinct differences.   You can contact Kyle through the Northeast chapter of the VHDF.

How much money do you make?  How much do you weigh? What did you pay for your car? Do you tithe?  Many of us find these questions offensive and in some ways they are. Except for the last one...the rest are non of my business, and are on some level offensive. But God doesnt ask any of te others, but he does as for our Tithe. 10% of your gross income.  Why are we so quick to give out 20% of the cost of a meal to a server but reluctant to give God 10% of our income? This and other things we discuss today as we loo into what God expects of us.  Remember God can do more with 90% than you can with 100%....    

Casey and I talk about the DECKED drawer sysetm as well as the cargo glid. Pros and Cons of each. We also talk about insallation of both. Then we switch gears and talk about a subject that is near and dear to both of our hearts....Sub Gauges!

Why is it so difficult to forgive others when they have wronged us? Why do we carry grudges? What makes it so hard? And yet Jesus tells us to forgive 77 times those who wrong us. Why is it hard to forgive ourselves? Personally I find it harder for me to forgive myself than it is to forgive others.  Today we talk about why forgiveness is so important and how it can free you of your pain and heartache. 

Jeff Funke joins me to discuss the VHDF, an organization that was founded in 2007 with the intention to take the best parts of existing testing systems and make a series of tests that really reflected the versatile hunting dog in North America. The VHDF's scoring system allows for a lot of nuance and is able to highlight exceptional dogs, which is a plus for breeders who are trying to breed better hunting dogs.   You can contact Jeff via email jfunke3dk@gmail.com.
