The Senator was kind enough to come on the show and spend a few minutes with us to go over his bill. 

Ive been following this gentleman on social media for 4 or 5 years now and if your a bird hunter you should be too! Bret is a life long hunter, a champion duck caller, and Tic's (his Setter) best friend.

This one was a blast to record....Ill be recording another podcast in a day or so with a little update on the trespass bill. Al Webster and Matt Burtch  and myself met at a little bar and grill in central North Dakota on a bitter cold night to chat about hunting, family stories, and have a few drinks.

Alright folks this episode is a little less "eat your veggies" but still has a lot of info in there about calling state Legislators about these bad for hunters bills. Rich was nice enough to join me and chat about North Dakota bird hunting as well as his cockers and GSPs and some ruff grouse chat too.

I want you all to give me somewhat of a break for this episode....first of all I wasn't particularly well spoken during it mostly because it frustrates me that we are evn talking about it and partly because I have about 10 lines of that going on about it at once. This podcast is usually the desert and the after dinner drink....this episode it kinda making you finish your veggies.

Time to take out that bucket list and add another state to it....time to head west....All the way west. If you are like me and don't really think about California as a bird hunting destination, your wrong. I have to add it to my list to finish my quail slam but also after chatting with Robert and seeing his social media pictures I just need to see it. Thanks for listening!

The second part of the Arizona Adventure. Sat down with some new friends Jared Harbort and Mike Richards from Minnesota, as well as some podcast favorites, Nate Burbach and Wess Larabee. We talked about some of the trends that we have been noticing while chasing these amazing little desert and mountain birds. We also chat about Mikes English Pointers and Jared's Vizsla's.

We were lucky enough to have Johnathan O'Dell join us for a few days and he was kind enough to drop some serious knowledge on us which has already led to more birds in the bag. I cant think of any place I'd rather be during the middle of January. 

Today  have a end of the year treat for you! One of the most hardcore hunters, dog people, and all around cool lady ive ever met! Judy Balog fits all these criteria. 

Man have I been looking forward to this one! We have been planning this podcast since this summer. Some great folks here in North Dakota have been working hard to try to pass a bill to make it legal to track wounded big game animals with dogs for two and a half years (I cant believe it hasn't been legal all along) and its finally written and will be voted on next month. Also we talk about some frequently asked questions that hunting dog owners have for a vet and dispel some myths.
