Was hoping you would post your hunts. You and your dogs are just the best to watch, Tubs is got to be the best retriever I have ever watched. Terrain looks really green for September and the bird numbers are really up in Montana and in North Dakota where we go. Keep the videos coming, Thanks again Eric.

Funny coincidence, I had your video show up on my RUclips feed and then after watching it I flip over to Facebook and the second post I see is a NSTRA high point standing update with you and your dogs in the standings. Great footage by the way!

Çok başarılı bir video olmuş avlak müthiş türkideyeden selamlar
First huns both on the second shot? By far the best videos out there!
Very good shooting
Welcome back to MT , you should come back for pheasants, anyway I hope to see you out there , my son and I always enjoy your content
I would love to see MT in October, should be a great year!
outstanding dogs
I would love to see a video of your truck set up especially if you set up a camp when out and about.
I have several videos on my truck set up, gear, trip planning, etc on my Patreon page if you are interested. www.patreon.com/ericforrester
Awesome videos! Keep it up 👍🏻
I give you props for driving American. For nostalgia purposes I’d love to see you shooting a double gun, preferably a side by side. Good hunting my friend.
For me, the gun is just a tool for putting birds on the ground for my dogs. That said, I’d still like to have a 28 ga O/U someday. Maybe I’ll get a gun sponsor 😁
Nice shootin’ Eric, best of luck and safe travels rest of season 👍🏻
Thanks man, you too! Great job on your prairie series! 👊
That Tubbs is one fine dog...
Thank you.
Love your videos man! Going to Montana with my Dad in 2 weeks! Hoping to see half as many birds as you! Is there any way you could show how you finish birds that are still alive? Everyone says wring the neck I just don't really know how. Thanks
Wait for your videos like i wait for a new pheasant season, just pacing
nice shoots,nice dogs..good luck bro...
Thanks 👊
Mr. Eric, you're the best. I really admire you. I just bought a GoPro 11. The birds appear so far away on my video clips, actually they're not that far. Could you please check my settings and correct me? Thanks in advance.

@@ericforrester1 That's ok I still love the videos
Beauty as always sir!!
Thanks bro! When will we get to see the next AZQA video?!? 😉
@@ericforrester1 Ah Man...I hope soon. Had some technical difficulties up in MT so trying to see if I can piece something together worth watching :) ID should be good though. So much in such a short time. Was Great to see you again up there man!
I’ve been there 🤬…until next time! 🍻
Bravooo cok güzel av olmuş tebrikler kazasız belasız bir sezon olsun inşallah bursadan selam ve sevgiler
Teşekkürler!
Tubinator, I like that.
I second the disposal of bird carcasses at the parking spots. Up in hells Canyon this year by the creek heads people leaving the chukar carcasses guts, laying all over. My young dog picking them up to eat them, not a fan of it. Also, young guys are driving utvs & walking down the reservior road with labs shooting coveys headed to water. I'm 42 getting my packs on to hike up so i pack it up amd drive to the end of the road to hunt up. Ethics are need more than ever with the amount of upland hunters now. Good 250 yard retrieve for tubs thats the best assest for chukar country here.
I totally agree, thanks!
Eric do you believe all dogs have the same caliber of nose?I have seen in my experince they all have the same scenting ability.The dogs with the brains learn how to use their noses more efficently.I really enjoy your videos.
Yes I agree. Most dogs have a similar ability to smell. It’s how they use, interpret, and react to that scent that separates them. Kudos to you for recognizing it. 👍
Love your videos with your great dogs! Approx where in Montana were you hunting?
Curious what your preferred load and choke is for the sharpies. I've never got to hunt them, but they are on the bucket list.
Sharpies are the easiest birds to bring down so it doesn’t take much. I use open chokes and target loads.
Awesome video. Is there a video out there where you go through your truck setup and kennel in detail?
Yes there is. On my Patreon page. www.patreon.com/ericforrester
Yep Found it thanks. Going to be taking 6 dogs on a trip coming up. I like way you split the kennel into 3 sections. @@ericforrester1
Great Eric. Looks like better ammo this year compared to last !!. Is CeCe semi retired now ?. Looks like bird numbers out there are crazy. Huns and Sharps in SD the last couple of years have exploded. Will find out 1st wk of Nov.
Cici hunts less but she can still bring it. She can’t run like she used to but she’s still smart as a whip!
Wow what an awesome opening hunt
Great work done by tubs and young dogs
Hows seesee doing ?
Hope she is fine
She is getting older but she can still get it done. You’ll see her in a future episode. 👍
@@ericforrester1
Good luck 👍
@@ericforrester1
Is she older than tubby ?
Yes. She is 11. Tubbs is 6.
Tubby is a retrieving machine.
Great video! You’re getting me pumped up. My season starts in the UP in late October. 3 weeks and counting!!!!
Side question. I know you breed wire hairs but is Tubby a GSP?
He is a slick coat wirehair. Good luck up north!
He's beautiful and a top notch hunting dog. Great work on your videos sir, I look forward to every video.
Thanks you!
Didnt you get three that first flush?
Just 2.
What shells do you like to run on these hunts?
Nothing special. Just target loads.
One dogs slowly
Awesome video!!!! All public land?
Yep 👍
I'm in MT right now for the first time, 2nd year upland hunting with my small munsterlander. Any tips on areas you like to hunt?
The Montana website has some great maps to help you get in the better areas.
What size shot do you use? I'm goint to MT in Septber for the opener!I have a place in Lambert to stay.
7.5
From someone that has never hunted Montana, how do you pick the property to hunt? Can you share what part of the state? Thank you.
I never discuss areas I hunt to avoid hot spotting because it can happen.
First learn the necessary habitat, e-scout, live scout, then release the hounds! 🐕👍
As a Montana resident, thank you for this! @@ericforrester1
😁👍
@@BeejmilesI also thank you for this.
What brand of kennels do use in back of your truck ?
I made them.
love the videos, do you hunt public or private land?
All publicly accessible.
what kind of dogs would you recommend for someone who wants to get back into bird hunting with an older hunter our last dog was an English pointer
I breed wirehairs and they can do it all…but I would start with what you would like to hunt and start narrowing it down from there. Some breeds are more specialized than others. If you want to know more about our dogs ➡️ ghostpointwirehairs.com
What about snakes there? Do you meet them often?
They are definitely around.
You wound a lot of birds.
Are you hunting public land?
Yes
You went through Nodak to hunt Sharptail? Looks like you do well in MT but Nodak is the king for Sharpies.
I’ve been there also
جميل انت محترف
excellent vid as always but to kill a bird with a semiautomatic is a disgrace get a side by side or over under my friend
I think you made some awesome RUclips videos but I really don’t see what the purpose was of filming those carcasses where they were at. Anti-hunters take that kind of footage and turn around and use it against us so giving them ammunition to use against us doesn’t seem super responsible respectfully
Finally, the wait is over br 🦧🐶🐶&🐶
😁👊
