Glen and Jon talk about what projects are going on and what RGS involvement in Michigan will look like. 

Scoot returns for another episode continuing the topic of grouse dogs.  This time its early bird exposure and development.

Pardon a few audio bumps in this episode but I think they're finally solved after these recordings.

Rob Holsclaw is a brand new bird hunter with one season behind him and he reflects on what he's experienced. 

Mark Kazmerski joins us in camp every October. We just chat a bit about some of his dogs and what camp means.

Fritz and his brother Rick know how to put ruffed grouse in the bag.  Attention to habitat details that constantly change throughout the season and dedication to improving their shooting skills keeps them an effective hunting duo.

Scott is a good friend and until recently operated Pine Hill Sportsman's Club.  We've had conversations like this in the past after hours and I wanted to finally get it out into the public.  

Feedback is always appreciated, [email protected] or on FaceBook at BirdCamp

As far as real conversations go this was one of those.  Almost two hours that wanders in and out of every sort of topic that comes up.  Birds, dogs, NAVHDA tests, and when to order the special at a local diner.

Dave owns Sport Dog Photography and hunts multiple states each year with both gun and camera. 

Bob has been running field trials for more than 16 years. We talk about the dogs, judging, and dog handling of a field trial. 

The Amesian Standard is the reference for the judging of a trial dog and I've included the link here. https://www.amesplantation.org/the-amesian-standard

I will always welcome feedback from listeners and the best way to contact me is [email protected]

My friend Rob takes a few weeks each year to hunt the spring conservation season for snow geese.  Huge decoy spreads and lots of attention to detail make this season a big thrill for Rob and many of the others that hunt with him at camp.

Feedback about this episode and any others is always welcome.  Contact the show with your bird hunting dilemma, unsung hunting hero, unpopular hunting opinion, or topic suggestion and it will probably get some air time on the show.  Email at [email protected] or message the podcast through Facebook at BirdCamp.  

Dennis Stachewicz, who is also to some known as Uncle Grouse owns and operates Aspen Thicket Grouse Dogs in the central U.P.  We kept it fun and mostly on topic about how to become a better grouse hunter.  As always any feedback is appreciated at [email protected]
