Your bird hunting questions and my answers - you decide if they’re any good.

From steadiness to the difference between "fetch" and "dead bird," we'll cover a host of topics you've asked about. I'll cobble together some answers that might be helpful! Dog boots, how to gather information, finding a lost bird dog and why chukars are always uphill from us, we'll explore the wide world of birds, dogs, and shooting too.

The Road Trip goes to nowhere ... but offers a suggestion on getting your dog back if he's lost on a hunting trip. And we take a look at your favorite bird - and others' as well - as defined by our Upland Nation Index survey.
