+Jonathan Long Grouse woods are thick habitat, and most dogs roam out of sight a lot of the time. The beeper collar makes a sound when the dog is stopped, and that usually means on point near a bird. The beep alerts the handlers and other hunters that there is a point and where they should head to get ready for the flush. Bell's are traditional, and work opposite where no more tinging bell means a pointing dog.
Great upload! I like this guys attitude on hunting. Beautiful piece of heaven there :)
Why do you guys pass up most of the woodcock? Were they out of season? It looks like somebody shot one at the 8:08 mark.
Just curious, but what is that beeping sound that can be heard when approaching the dog on point?
