    probably the best pheasant video i've seen, why? 1. don't have corporate sponsorship all over the video. 2. Looked like public lands by the river. 3.Don't have tons of people in a group bragging about a shot and their gear, just a hunter and his dogs. We(dad and I) have pointer labs and we don't like hunting in more than 5 in a group, we prefer to watch our dogs work. In fact my dog AJ just got off the DL of 2 weeks(cut on his leg) and is back in action and yesterday he proved why he is my best friend in the field and in life, he didn't miss a beat.

    • @ericforrester1
      @ericforrester1  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      As with most all birds, it basically comes down to food and cover. Crops with CRP, tree, or shrub cover nearby is a great place to start. You can narrow it down with satellite imagery and confirm with scouting in person.

      @@ericforrester1 ....Every dog in the video was breaking....not that it matters in hunting.....and when did they start with dogs having to be steady in NSTRA?.....Hunting is one thing, testing/trialing is another......Decent dogs figure out what they are doing on a particular day by what is going on around them in my experience, whether it's a test/trial day, or hunting wild birds day......just my experience.

      @@outdoorrn2980 I let my dogs break at the flush, same for NSTRA. As far as I know, NSTRA has always been that way.
