Gun Dog It Yourself

226. A Guide's Perspective w/ Stephen Faust

Listen Later
Experienced Ruffed Grouse and Woodcock guide for Pineridge Grouse Camp, Stephen Faust of Stoneybrook Gordon Setters, joins me for a tailgate lunch between hunts to talk about some of his takeaways after so many years in the woods guiding beginner and experienced hunters alike.
  • Why Gordon Setters?
  • Keeping genetics fresh with imported dogs
  • How did Stephen fall into guiding?
  • Old stands with the right understory and food sources
  • Switching from Grouse to Woodcock in the southeast
  • Using Woodcock to develop a Grouse dog?
  • Different bird scents
  • Being stewards of the Woodcock population while still hunting them
  • Should you shoot Woodcock if you don't plan on eating them?
  • Guiding 101 and considerations for new timers
  • More impactful: a person's first grouse or the dog's first grouse?
  • Pineridge Grouse Camp's daily announcements
