Fun Iowa Pheasant hunt 2023

November 3rd 2023 hunting public land in Iowa. Me, Skye, and Roxy got our first ever three rooster limit in Iowa. I love hunting with these field bred golden retrievers. They have great noses and instincts for hunting, I highly recommend the breed for any upland hunter. Every time I take these girls afield they impress me with something new.

Thanks James, it was a great day for sure.

You're like most of us, pretty decent dogs, on a good day shoot well and on a bad day really not well. Enjoying your videos. I have another 5 months till our season starts.

Just came across your channel and subscribed
The first bird dog I hunted with was a Golden Retriever.
Best dog I’ve ever hunted over.
Absolutely love them.
Only reason I don’t have one is because of the junk that gets in there hair from hunting.
So I have Labs. But man they are great upland dogs hands down.
Look forward to seeing more vids.
Thx.

Nothing like a day afield with good dogs.

Great video, I love your golden retrievers. Were they hard to train to stay in close? What exactly does "field bred" mean?

[@GoldenSkye]

Most popular hunting dogs have two varieties. There's dogs bred for the show ring, and dogs bred for field use, which is hunting. These dogs are from lines of hunting golden retrievers. They tend to have a little shorter fur than a show dog, and often a little darker color, often with a red hue. The training is pretty easy. They already have the natural instinct to hunt, so learn through exposure to game birds. As far as staying close, it's just something you work on during training and hunting. I am not a dog trainer, so just do the best I can. I'm sure most any golden retriever can hunt, it just takes a little time.
