Pro bird hunting guide on wild birds, essential habitat, strategies & tactics and why we go

Orvis-endorsed bird hunting guide Ryan Aune of Wyoming Wings & Waters knows wild birds, and he really knows Wyoming wingshooting. He guides clients on a mixed bag of prairie and forest grouse, Huns, and pheasants in the Cowboy State and knows how to find public-access bird hunting spots. Twice a finalist for Orvis Wingshooting Guide of the Year, this guy scouts deep in the boondocks to find unmolested birds, and we can all learn from his experience when we seek new birds on new ground. We'll cover everything from food sources to habitat requirements, handling dogs on hinky birds and early steadiness training. We cover finding birdy spots, essential habitat components, and even wax philosophically about why we hunt. We delve deep into bird behavior and what makes good cover for all the bird species he hunts. We'll touch on essential gear, best practices when approaching a pointed dog, and handling running birds. "Fix It" has a suggestion for coping with public access spots that have been hammered, and listeners share their pup's first bird stories.
