Oh ya absolutely, I've been hunting grouse since I was a young boy.
In the past few years I've also seen a big influx of wild turkeys. The nasty ice storm we had years back wiped most of them out but I'm glad to see they're coming back in high numbers!
This is my girl on the left (the Akita)
She's amazing, really friendly and has a high prey drive.
Akitas are bred to hunt but the breed is notoriously stubborn though, she won't listen if she's on the trail.
My last option is maybe trying an e-collar :rolleyes:
Hey everyone glad to be a member of this fine hunting community. I've been lurking around for a while and figured it was time to make an account and get the most out of this site.
Look forward to sharing some fun hunting stories and pictures!
