Follow along as Roxy the 2 year old Golden heads west to bird-hunting candy land. Warm and dry conditions make for tough scenting, but no worries, Roxy's nose knows. Here we hunt grassy draws, old crop field edges, and sage brush swales. We had 4 days of hunting but only recorded two as I was busy the entire time. We also hunted vast sections of hilly prairies and grasslands with plum thickets,...

Two separate late November days in Iowa hunting wild pheasants on public land. Skye and Roxy do all the heavy lifting, they are field bred golden retrievers. At time of filming Skye is almost 8 and Roxy a shade over 2 years old. Hunting with a dog will change your life in so many good ways. Enjoy.

November 3rd 2023 hunting public land in Iowa. Me, Skye, and Roxy got our first ever three rooster limit in Iowa. I love hunting with these field bred golden retrievers. They have great noses and instincts for hunting, I highly recommend the breed for any upland hunter. Every time I take these girls afield they impress me with something new.

      Haha. We saw a really nice corner of public land sticking out in the corn field. Then up the road we saw a lady out in the yard, and she gave us permission to cross the field. We didn't want to do it w/o talking to the landowner, that would be low bagger 😂. Skye and Roxy are doing good. We usually get a lot of hunting in around Christmas and New Years.

      That was a no maintenance road, so hunting is allowed. Property lines you can hunt if there is a section line road. These will be marked "minimum maintenance" or "no maintenance. There is a section on hunting road rights of way in the SD hunting regs booklet.

    Just a quick note to thank you for sharing your hunts, they have been therapeutic in helping our young golden get over the loss of our older female. In a bit of coincidence, her name was Skye as well. We noticed our guy reacting to you calling your Skye on the videos.

  • @lilbrowhydaw
    @lilbrowhydaw 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Curious. When you show that pheasant hit the power line, how far did you zoom in Shotcut? I'm still editing with a nearly 10-yr-old laptop & proxy videos, I think at 540p. So sometimes, like if my video shows a bunch of pheasants way, way out there, I know they're there, but I really can't see them at all when editing. All kind of guess work, & I never know quite what I'll end up with until the video is done exporting & I can view it on a larger screen. Probably time for a fairly major laptop upgrade.

    • @GoldenSkye
      @GoldenSkye 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hmmm, I can't remember the zoom % right now. I know exactly what you're talking about, and I did the same thing as you said, I just took a guess while working with the proxy and it turned out. It would be handy not to have to deal with proxys at times. My computer is 8 years old, so I'm in the same boat.

I learn all I can about bird hunting and dog handling, enjoy the successes I have, and always learn when I make a mistake. My belief is that as long as you and the dogs are learning and enjoying your time afield, then you're on the right path. Both dogs are from hunting lines of golden retrievers. Thank you Jack.

    Some gorgeous fish! Browns? My family has spent a lot of time in the Bighorn Mountains in Wyoming and we'd fly fish the streams. Mostly Brookies, but some Rainbows and Cutthroats in certain places. Great hunt. When that bird flushed at 8:40, you could HEAR it was a rooster. Big, strong flush. Very cool. It's hard not to beat ourselves up over the misses, but all we can do is keep hunting and keep shooting. Excellent master class on finding downed birds. Patience and trust the dogs. Great idea to have that orange ribbon to mark the initial fall site. Was that bird dead when Skye brought him back? Love the pics at the end. Fantastic stuff!!

    • @GoldenSkye
      @GoldenSkye ปีที่แล้ว

      Yup, those are both browns from streams in the MN driftless region. It is some pretty good fishing down there. Lots of browns, some stocked rainbows, and a few brookies. Yeah that last bird was still blinking when Skye brought him back. I would love to know if he was running or hiding, but those cattails are a lot thicker than they look on camera! I couldn't see the dogs much, just heard them rustling around as they searched. That bird made the whole trip :)

    Great video, I love your golden retrievers. Were they hard to train to stay in close? What exactly does "field bred" mean?

    • @GoldenSkye
      @GoldenSkye ปีที่แล้ว

      Most popular hunting dogs have two varieties. There's dogs bred for the show ring, and dogs bred for field use, which is hunting. These dogs are from lines of hunting golden retrievers. They tend to have a little shorter fur than a show dog, and often a little darker color, often with a red hue. The training is pretty easy. They already have the natural instinct to hunt, so learn through exposure to game birds. As far as staying close, it's just something you work on during training and hunting. I am not a dog trainer, so just do the best I can. I'm sure most any golden retriever can hunt, it just takes a little time.
