Between Flushes: Chris P.

from A Break in the Action · host Ryan Doughty

We can probably all agree that most of what we love about wingshooting doesn’t actually happen when the birds are in the air… it comes in the preparation, in the walking, and in the listening pauses.  In the quiet moments between flushes—when the gun is open, the dog is working, and there’s time to notice where you are and who you’re with.  It happens when the day is finished and, with a tired dog by your side, you reflect.I'm titling this series, Between Flushes, and I plan to add a few episodes to it each year.  The format will be a bit different…  less edited and more raw.  That is intentional; there’s no rush and nothing to brag about - no scorecard. Rather, just stories, perspective, and a chance to listen in on a conversation between two hunters.In this episode:Follow Chris on Instagram @montanasharpie17Our Sponsors:The Beretta GalleriesB&P ShotshellsDelaney & SonsNegrini CasesGuyette and DeeterCole Fine Guns and GunsmithingHave a comment or suggestion?
