10 rules for hunting with dogs
An invitation to hunt over other hunting dogs is a privilege, but a little etiquette is required. Here’s a rundown of the dos and don’ts.
Finding downed birds
Watching birds fall will tell you how badly they were hit, determining how you go about your retrieve. Be quiet and have your gun handy.
Breaking up birds
In fall turkey hunting, an effective tactic is to rush a flock of birds in order to deliberately scatter them. Try this also on waterfowl.
Hunting the end of cover

Experiencing late-season waterfowl
For many hunters, the season's end is a grand finale in which waterfowl can put on a display not seen at any other time.
