Depends on the wind that's bringing the scent to the dog(s). 50-60 yards easy....I've seen some points that were 100+ yards

Yep, Tekoa Mountain Sunrise. This particular pup (Jack) is down in Casper, WY and is doing quite well for his owner

@@WyomingUpland Hell yeah. Those dogs are IT.

always good to recover those downed birds!

Improved Cylinder (IC). This seems to work best for my Benelli with 7/8 oz, 7.5 shot shells

20 ga., #7.5 shot @7/8 oz. I actually use the cheap Federal Top Gun shells

@WyomingUpland I'm from Utah, I have a piece of property 2 miles from flaming gorge. Love Wyoming. Your videos have me fired up to do some upland game hunting. Liked and subscribed.

yep, didn't see it occur in the field, but a friend pointed it out after watching the video. I think that was the 4th time this season I've dropped 2 with 1 shot. I knew it occurred the first 3 times and recovered the birds.

Illinois would be better :)

R.snake vac is controversial...some vets say it works...some don't. The rattlers we have are the prairie rattler variety and the vac is derived from the western diamondback. I don't vac the dogs but they're all snake broke but that doesnt' mean that they don't accidently run over or step on one and get bit

Nope, don't do the bunnies though on a blue moon, one of the Setters can't seem to resist...

A skunked day is still better than a day of yard work. 😂💪🏽

basically a mini wind gauge. We get a lot of very subtle rotating air currents and the string (dental floss) can help determine which way those mini currents flow and help pinpoint the birds

@@WyomingUpland You are really serious.

Thanks, Ron! I was watching "Jaws" last night so had Spielberg on my mind! Wife is out of town so I'm hunting just about 24/7 but it's hot and dry and tough to keep the dogs hydrated

THNX for watching!

Blues (Dusky's and Sooty's) are often found in higher elevation sage brush "parks" surrounded by forested areas in late summer into the fall. They're out looking for grasshoppers and forbs. Blues do a reverse migration, going higher up in elevation towards winter, where they do get into thicker forest and feed on spruce needles. The spot on the video was around 8,000' elevation and I wouldn't of been surprised to have found some Sage Grouse too. We've even had the dogs point Blues at around 6,000' out in the desert far away from any forest. I remember an early october hunt several years ago where we pointed huns, chukar, sage grouse and blues within the same square mile

I learned something today, thanks. 👍

@@montemichaelson1471 yea, Blues are kinda' like the love child of Ruffs (deeper forests) and Sage Grouse (wide open, sage brush areas) :)

I've done some snake breaking and the Setters sure don't like'em. But that won't stop a dog from getting bit if he's running full bore and steps on one

I haven't been out enough to really know, but there does seem to be a few around

Best wishes for a good season. I enjoy watching your videos. Thx

snakes are always a concern. I practically stepped on one in this general area a couple of weeks ago

That's Buck, he was 6+ months old in that video...he's now 6+ years old :)

Been laying low, running the dogs close to home to give the nesting birds some space but now the chicks are flying well we'll give the Setters more leeway

Glad you enjoy the videos and thanks for watching!!!

Thanks, Todd! Just saw this as I've temporarily traded sage brush for palm trees and sandy beaches. We'll be talkin' soon!

Have fun@@WyomingUpland
