Bird dog legend, trainer George Hickox on new ways to achieve steadiness ... and more

from Upland Nation · host Scott Linden

Start the year right - get your training act together! Legendary trainer, champion trialer and bird hunter George Hickox shares his wisdom on all things bird dogs. He'll re-define what motivates your hunting dog and how to take him to the next level. He'll change your thinking on a number of topics, and walk us through a better way to get a dog to be steady on pointed birds. We'll cover the benefits and how-to's of roading a dog, too. We'll go to bird dog summer camp, talk sharptail and Hun behavior, and learn, learn, learn. "Fix It" might help your dog's pads late in the season, and listeners share their thoughts on the benefits of hunting solo ... or with someone. And it's all brought to you by: HiVizSights.com, RuffLand Kennels, Mid Valley Clays and Shooting School, CableGangz, TrulockChokes, HiViz shooting systems, Pointer shotguns, Purina Pro Plan Sport and FindBirdHuntingSpots.com.
