From the floor of National Pheasant Fest and Quail Classic: Put down your coffee cup - you won't need any more caffeine once you feed off Kali Parmley's energy. She's editor of Gun Dog magazine, a hard core upland hunter, hosts the Wild Upland TV series, and hunts hard all season. You'll find her in the stratosphere chasing ptarmigan, and among the lava rock where chukars dwell. We'll talk about how she decides what gets into a magazine and why ... starting a new pup ... hunting two dogs as a brace and separately ... adventures of a TV host ... and re-live her hunting season together. Tips and strategies for wild birds are also part of our discussion. "Fix It" puts you into new public-access land in a neglected location and I'll announce the latest winner in our Fur Feathers Friends-Pointer Shotguns giveaway. You get a chance to enter to win a free day of private land hunting from LandTrust.com, value $150 in our furfeathersfriends.com sweepstakes, but only if you listen and know the Word of the Week. And it's all brought to you by: HiVizSights.com, @midwayusa, #midwayusa, MidwayUSA, Mid Valley Clays and Shooting School, TrulockChokes, HiViz shooting systems, Purina Pro Plan Sport and FindBirdHuntingSpots.com. You can listen to all the podcasts here.
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).
