Most hunters believe the first line of responsibility in providing good dogs to hunt rests with the breeder. Others may point to the dog’s owner, commonly called the trainer, as the one chiefly responsible for the dog’s success or failure. And that’s just talking about performance. How about breed type in the show ring? Who decides what’s correct or faulty? 

The boys engage in the usual “dog talk at its finest” in the opening minutes of the episode before cracking the lid on a can of mayhem and confusion centered on the age old “just who gives you the right” challenge. Triggered somewhat by comments on recent social media, Corey opens a discussion about who gets to decide what quality is in a given breed of hounds? And, beyond that, who has the authority to call the shots when it comes to breeding quality dogs?  Does simply owning a great dog make the owner the be-all, end-all authority on the breed?  Opinions in this episode are flying like starlings in the wind, the opinions no more authoritative than the flapping of wings yet no less passionate.  

This is a lively discussion that’s bound to stir a reaction or two within every houndsman, color and conformation preferences aside.

In this week's episode, Pierce talks with Aaron Warbritton from The Hunting Public to learn all about the importance of summer scouting, how to do it right, predicting shifts in deer movement, and setting yourself up for success all season long.

If you haven't heard of Aaron Warbritton, we might have some bigger questions to be asking you. If you have heard of him, you know darn well that he's a wealth of knowledge in the woods whether he's chasing after whitetails or turkeys. This week, the guys unpack the different types of bedding, and why finding those areas now will lead you to success later this fall. Aaron breaks down primary and secondary bedding areas, how to identify them, and how you can build a strategy to set up an ambush on a big buck on his way back to bed. 

We talk through the "Bump & Dump" style of deer hunting, how you should expect bucks to use terrain features depending on the time of year. It's full of gold nuggets so be prepared to listen to this one more than once!
