Chukars to Mearn's quail, we've got you covered as the season debriefs roll on. I'm joined by two avid bird hunting friends on this edition: Lance Larson of Arizona, and Omar Alyahya of Oregon. Weather, dog work, challenges from puppies to cactus all are part of the discussion. Omar also shares his hunting upbringing in Kuwait. We'll learn about chukar and desert quail habitat, how chukars defied conventional wisdom later in the season, pick up a couple hunting strategies, and find out how bird populations fared. Omar has first-hand experience and recommends a very important piece of gear. "Fix It" is my take on feeding your dog during the off season, and listeners relate their dogs' injury situation after a long season - words to the wise!

Why this website? Find bird hunting spots ... sounds easy, but it's more complicated than the statement above, with a lot of moving parts. But it's also absolutely true. Lack of accessible land is the biggest reason many of us quit hunting or never start in the first place. My hope is this website will help - because without hunters, there is virtually no conservation.
But that's not all ... there's the country's most widely-distributed upland hunting TV show, a podcast, educational video library, and weekly newsletter full of fun and information (sign up below).
