Been looking forward to this video and it was really good. Love your dogs they really enjoy the hunt. Looking forward to your 2022 ruff grouse hunts in Michigan. There’s just nothing like hunting with a bird dog.
I'm not sure if you'll see this on this older video but I've always wondered what do you do to keep your dogs cool when they're sitting in the truck while you're out hunting
Great job with the video and look forward to the rest. I am headed to MT in 3 weeks so maybe I can get a decent video from the trip. I hurt for you when you switched to the auto and it failed to cycle on the first covey rise. I noticed something that i noticed the other day in one of my dove videos when the gun failed to shoot. I jerked more than I would like to think I would when I pulled the trigger.
Good luck hunting and safe travels out there! I had just cleaned the gun and that was the first shot through it 🤦♂️ Shotguns have pretty heavy trigger pulls, 8-10lbs. I believe that's where the jerk comes from. Good luck the rest of the season!
Hi there, great hunting video👍🏻.. I’m new to your channel and this is the first that I saw among your videos.. love it, great job sir.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 - all the way from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Awesome video! Loved seeing the dogs work. Sidenote: you stepped right over a celt stone at 18:30. You can see it right above the bird. It's the stone that looks like a hatchet and has grooves in it.
Great video. Looks pretty leisurely compared to the chukar hunting we do here in NV, not that that's a bad thing especially as I'm recovering from a knee replacement.
@@UplanderLifestyle Thank you. The breeder of my English Setter lives in MT and has terrain like that out the back door. After watching your video I'm tempted to head up there in Sep for a pre chukar season hunt.
I grew up hunting pheasant and chukar behind German Short-haired pointers on a private preserve near my home but would love hunt Montana or Nebraska for grouse. Any advice on how to get started. I have two dogs and the ability to take up to a week off work.
I'm planning my first wild bird hunt to Montana for sharptails next fall and I honestly feel like I have no idea what I'm doing. Lol. Are the birds plentiful enough that they're relatively east to find? I plan to hunt public land in Eastern Montana.
How many boxes of shells do you generally carry with you? When I first started bird hunting I carried two boxes of 20 gauge and even though it was evenly distributed it felt so heavy in my bird coat.
Awesome videos! You probably talk about this in another video, but I'm curious how are you choosing the spots where you are hunting? Are they public or private?
Great videos. Curious what collars you are using? Looking to try something different but need track and train. Currently running garmin pro 550 plus but been having to replace collars quite often. Thanks
I try and eat a fair amount of them as we go, starting with the oldest. I keep them in a yeti cooler with ice, and they will last several weeks if stored properly. If a bird was gut shot it gets ate sooner than later, this way I’m only keeping the birds that did not have their meat contact gut matter stored for an extended period of time. I don’t rinse the birds after cleaning, water breeds bacteria growth. And I double bag them in freezer bags so they don’t puncture and absorb water from the cooler and don’t leak out blood into the cooler. I’ve stored birds close to 4 weeks doing this.
Complimenti bella caccia a quel selvatico con i cani da ferma complimenti 👍 volevo sapere che razza sono i tuoi cani sono molto simili al mio Epagneul Breton e in fine perché a volte non spari ai selvatici pur essendo a distanza giusta ? Ciao ti seguo con piacere su RUclips
Thank you! All 3 of my dogs are Brittanys, as well. American Brittanys. I don't always shoot because I want the dog to point the bird, and with a couple of my younger dogs it would be easy for them to come unglued and stop pointing if I just started shooting at whatever birds were flying. Thanks for following along, happy hunting to you!
@@UplanderLifestyle ottimo lavoro quello che hai descritto bravo 👍 anche io ho fatto così per ottenere la migliore ferma del mio cane. Ho rinunciato spesso al tiro ma poi ho ottenuto un ottimo cane da ferma molto bravo con selvatici molto sospettosi come qui da noi in Italia sono Beccacce e Beccaccini buona fortuna 👍
Are all your dogs pure bred Brittany's? That pup is really cute and he looks like he's kinda getting the hang of it. It's so important to get them out as early as possible so they can get the knack of what's going on.
Been looking forward to this video and it was really good. Love your dogs they really enjoy the hunt. Looking forward to your 2022 ruff grouse hunts in Michigan. There’s just nothing like hunting with a bird dog.
Thanks so much Gary - Glad you enjoyed the video. I've been out here in Michigan for the last week. More to come soon, good luck this season!
I watch your channel because you use a side x side, classic hunter giving the birds a chance to escape.
Thanks for following along!
That was awesome! Thank you for sharing. Me n my buddies are hunting with GSP in Iowa.
Thanks man!
Man, I've been looking forward to your videos of the 2022 season for a long time. Glad it's finally here!
Appreciate it man! Good luck this season!
nothing better to see good dog work
I can’t argue that! Thanks for watching Jeffrey!
I'm not sure if you'll see this on this older video but I've always wondered what do you do to keep your dogs cool when they're sitting in the truck while you're out hunting
That was some amazing footage and scenery! Great work to everyone!
Thanks Bobby! Glad you enjoyed it👍🏻
Good dog work!
Thanks for following along!
Thx for sharing. As an eastern guy, I’ve always dreamed about someday hunting sharp tails and Huns in Montana.
Thanks David. Best of luck this season.
Great video….love the dogs!
New to your channel, really enjoyed this video. Well trained dogs, do you train them yourself? Thanks!
Looks like a blast….can’t wait for the next parts….
Thanks Allen! Always a good time out there 👍🏻
Nicely done. My plan was to stay up there for a couple weeks, but trip was cut short. They are fun,
Yes, almost too much fun! Hope you had a good trip before it was cut. Best of luck the rest of this season! Heading back to MI at all?
@@UplanderLifestyle Just got to MI today. Stopped in MN had fun with a few Grouse/Woodcock there.
love the dog work on the wounded grouse around 11 minutes!
Heading up north in a week for a upland hunt and fishing trip love your videos
Good luck this season man!

You all make a great team. Fantastic shooting. Wish i was there. You don't see this in South Florida.
Hi there, great hunting video👍🏻.. I’m new to your channel and this is the first that I saw among your videos.. love it, great job sir.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 - all the way from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Marvin! Great to hear from you, thanks for the comment and following along! Cheers to a Happy New Year with our new friend in the Philippines!
Love your videos man keep it up!!!!!!
Thanks Evan - glad you enjoy the videos! Good luck this season.

Thanks Dave! Would have never known. Will have to keep my eye open next year!
Great video. Looks pretty leisurely compared to the chukar hunting we do here in NV, not that that's a bad thing especially as I'm recovering from a knee replacement.
It's a fun, relaxed hunt! Thanks for watching. Hope you knee heals up fast so you can get back out there.
@@UplanderLifestyle Thank you. The breeder of my English Setter lives in MT and has terrain like that out the back door. After watching your video I'm tempted to head up there in Sep for a pre chukar season hunt.
Nice job, enjoy your videos.
Thank you! Looks like you're off to a great season yourself. Best of luck over the next few months!
yes, I'll be heading to Kansas soon. I expect Kansas to be bad this year but I'll go anyway.
Nice job with super cool dog work.
Thanks Dennis. How'd your trip go?
@@UplanderLifestyle had a hiccup with my morphine pump. Was not able to go. Next year for sure. Thanks for asking
The moment I heard the music I decided I must watch this video. I commented right on, hope it's worth it.
Thanks for following along Pierre!

What part of Eastern MT were you hunting in?
Good video!
Thanks for following along!

I see you have 3 Roughlands running back to back. Curious about that setup. Do you have it in a sliding tray to make opening the kennels easier?
What camera are you using ? Like your S/S 12 ga ? Have my grandmothers 16 Fox 🦊!
How many boxes of shells do you generally carry with you? When I first started bird hunting I carried two boxes of 20 gauge and even though it was evenly distributed it felt so heavy in my bird coat.
I usually carry one full box divided into each side pocket.
Hi! Great videos! Where do your Brittanys come from? Who's the breeder and what lines?
Damned good vid. Thanks
Thanks for following along!
Awesome videos! You probably talk about this in another video, but I'm curious how are you choosing the spots where you are hunting? Are they public or private?
Thanks man! I use a variety of digital mapping apps to decide where I'm going to hunt. All public land.
Great video. Got my sub.
Welcome Tim! Thanks for following along and good luck the rest of season!
Great videos. Curious what collars you are using? Looking to try something different but need track and train. Currently running garmin pro 550 plus but been having to replace collars quite often. Thanks
Thanks. I run the Garmin Pro 550 for eCollar and the Garmin T5 Mini with the Astro 430 for GPS tracking.
Avid bird hunter from the linden Fenton area in Michigan, always wanted to hunt the Hi line area N/E Montana! Any suggestions?
Just curious ....how do you preserve your harvested birds on an extended hunt?
I try and eat a fair amount of them as we go, starting with the oldest. I keep them in a yeti cooler with ice, and they will last several weeks if stored properly. If a bird was gut shot it gets ate sooner than later, this way I’m only keeping the birds that did not have their meat contact gut matter stored for an extended period of time. I don’t rinse the birds after cleaning, water breeds bacteria growth. And I double bag them in freezer bags so they don’t puncture and absorb water from the cooler and don’t leak out blood into the cooler. I’ve stored birds close to 4 weeks doing this.
Good idea
What size ruffland kennel do you use?? Debating between intermediate and large. Have two dogs that are 50 pounds roughly same size.
I run the intermediate. My biggest dog is 35 LB. a 50 LB dog is probably right on the line between an intermediate and large.
I like those orange stakes you are using to tie out your dogs. What is your source for those? TIA.
I got them from Lion Country Supply.
@@UplanderLifestyle thank you for that. I'll check with them. BTW, I really enjoy your videos. 👍
Who’s the manufacturer of you SxS? Great video.
Thanks Edward! It's a Stoeger.
What gauge is that and what chokes do you have in that gun
20 Gauge, IC and MOD!
What breed are your dogs?
Brittanys

1st time castching your videos. ❤❤ fantastic that you have trained your spaniels to poin. it is not their trait
Thanks James. They are Brittanys, not spaniels, so they point naturally.
Are all your dogs pure bred Brittany's? That pup is really cute and he looks like he's kinda getting the hang of it. It's so important to get them out as early as possible so they can get the knack of what's going on.
What brand of tie downs do you use?
For the kennels?
Watch out for that bird flu 👍🏻
I’ve got it bad! It’s keeping me out of work
