Jake’s barking and some crawling got me into the brush where Jake had tree’d his quarry.

Hunting has been a favorite past time for me for 55 years but the last twenty five years I have been consumed by chukar hunting and more specifically chukar hunting with fantastic dogs. In this blog I hope to pass on any information I can about chukar hunting but more than anything I want to showcase what will probably be my last two chukar dogs, Jake and Grady. I am 70 years old, Jake is 8 and Grady is 3 and I'm hoping to stay on the chukar mountain until I am 80 when Grady will be fetching my final chukars. View more posts

one of the prettiest upland birds there is.

Yes. This was yesterday, but during the season, one of the hardest birds for us to get. Unless you shoot them in the tree, they never offer a shot. The boys still like to tree them.

My first bird dog, a Brittany named Ruff, used to bark at grouse that flew up into a tree or vines. If I could hear him growling then I knew he was looking at the bird.

Ditto. My dogs seem to have passed the ruff barking on to each generation.
