We're back on the floor of Pheasant Fest and we need a lot of room for the four members of the Carter family of Merrymeeting Kennels of Brunswick, Maine. Blaine, Patti, Jason and Missy are versatile dog trainers and breeders - you've seen most of them with us on quail hunts on Wingshooting USA TV - and have a wealth of wisdom and experience to share.

From when to start training a dog, to why to use "baby talk," best treats, to a dog's mindset and how to use it to your mutual benefit, these folks will share two generations' worth of experience in the Maine woods and across the country. They'll offer hunting tips, too.

"Road Trip" offers a practical, strategic tip that could save you time, money, and aggravation; listeners chime in on whether they'd "pay to play," purchasing access to good hunting ground and you'll be surprised at the response.
