Great show! Taking a first time hunter is a treat, with it being your wife it had to be special. Really enjoy The Flush, looking forward to Season 11.
That's so incredible that she was able to get her first bird! What a unique trip, and birds as a bonus!
Underrated channel! I’m subscribing
My sara is also completely new to hunting, and man i tell ya she eats it up. Firearm deer, archery deer, and now upland, plus shes an animal in the boat. So much fun having your other half be your favorite huntimg partner!
Great show and great to see Sarah!
Great episode! Wish the hunting was better here in SW Michigan!
Such a good episode. Well done.
Awesome experience!
Very Cool !
It is very special to share your passion with your woman. Hopefully if all goes well you have a new hunting partner when the first hunt is through.
looking forward!
Aussie saddles, cool.
*Hunter safety course is important for all new hunters
Who saw the bird poop at 10:57
Are the saddles some kind of trail saddle for a gaited horse?
Grouse hunting is hard but very worth it!
muito bom
Very awesome video I want hunting with you all
Are ye covering over 20 miles
Lol
She was taking her gun down at high birds at 25 yards. The range goes to 45, why was she not taking perfect shots?
Dan, she needs some constructive tutoring re shot-gunning. Her form/stance right from the get-go is VERY poor. It contributes to heightened recoil, causes flinching and....misses. Travis didn't do that much better actually but at least he looked good missing. Then again...we all have good days and bad. I'd like to recommend his charming bride get some professional shooting lessons.
@@shug2795 Probably a good idea!
@@danmacie8179 Yup...you see that a lot with ladies that start shot-gunning. They lock back on their hips - pelvis out - throwing their balance too far back. When they fire, the recoil shifts their weight even further back. It's all they can do to stay standing. If nothing else it amplifies recoil while severely restricting their ability to turn/pivot in the direction of the target. Repeat misses and flinching ensue. That can't be fun for anyone regardless of what they pretend. A quick fix is to have the lady stand in front of you with her feet parallel then lean forward until she prevents herself from falling by putting out her left foot (right-handed shooter). Now, place that shotgun in her hands. ....voila! The next observation - which is common among ALL bird hunters is that they mount their shotgun as if it were a rifle. WRONG! You need to square up more with a shotgun. This allows you to rotate more freely towards a target that is unpredictable in it's escape path. I see too many (right-handed) scatter-gunners with their left shoulder far ahead of their right. Great for left-to-right birds but they shoot behind most of their right-to-left birds because they end up fighting their own body's torsion when tracking that right-to-left bird. Since there is no way of knowing which way a bird(s) will flush, increase your odds. Square up somewhat. By-the-way, this also alters your L.O.P. so....you might have to get your favorite shotgun stock re-fitted. ;)
I applaud her discipline for her first time. She would have shot the dogs for a couple of flushes. What ever happened to steady to flush.
@@bellegladesportsman5739 Octavio, please direct me towards a UA-cam video where the bird dogs are actually steady through the flush and shot - I'm not talking field trials? I ask about wild bird hunting of any species.
Thumbs down for the missing context on the so-called historical context. My encyclopedia says that, for a while, grouse were considered extinct. The article attributes its survival to eating plants, seeds and bugs. If grouse were propagated the way ring necked pheasant were, there would be many of them. But there are those against hunting who want to use the endangered species act sociopathically, ie, in a way to harm humans instead of helping us.
