107. Gearing Up for Hunting Season Sep 14, 2021

Show notes

Charles Coulter of Honor Point Kennels joins us to talk relatable gear. This isnt your typical "buy this brand of XX" episode. We discuss practical gear and what you actually need as well as want to go hunting this season. Lets face it, there's an endless amount of stuff on the market you can go buy but, at the end of the day, do you really NEED anything else besides a pair of boots, a shotgun, and your dog? Clothes would be pretty nice too though....

106. Is Your Dog Ever Really "Finished?" Aug 31, 2021

What is a "finished" dog? Is it achievable? What does it mean in terms of hunting and is it different than a dog that primarily tests? Is one necessarily better than the other? Scott Caldwell joins us again to discuss this fun topic. Anyone who's ever raised or trained dogs has had this discussion at least once with their buddies!

Why is timing so important when it comes to dog training? When the importance of timing is brought up in what way is it talked about?

Training with the lowest level of reward? Recognizing your dog's individual drive? Train hard and test easy? The importance of ritualized consistency? All this and more is discussed in this episode with Jay Crafter and Grayson Guyer as we try and break down the foundations and process of training your dog to track. Whether its human poachers in Africa or white tail deer here in the states. Tracking is tracking and your dog can do it! If you can take the principles of this process then your dog can learn to do anything in addition to tracking!
