First hunt with my Pup
Just wanted to share this here. I picked up the virtual course just around 3 months ago. And it has been amazing. I’ve never trained or had a hunting dog of any sorts before my gsp Cooper. The virtual course has been an absolute life saver. Its step by step guide is so simple to follow and only takes 30 or so minutes a day for most of the training, and it has a solid foundation behind it so if you ever get a hiccup in your training you have something to fall back on. My pups only about 7 1/2 months old and I took him on his first hunt at a preserve and he slammed on point on all 6 birds and held until I got there to flush some were 100 yards away and he still held while I worked my way to him. If I could have shot a little better we’d have 6 birds down lol. But what I’m getting at with this post is if you’re on the fence about getting the course. Get it!! It’s worth its weight in gold. I can’t wait till this fall we gonna get after some wild birds🤙

ID/Flat Collar
We’re looking for recommendations for a new solid and durable ID collar. The old one is from Carhartt and has broken down a little too far. Photo for attention 😎

Like @Jake Delger said, best gun dogs collars are amazing I just got my two about a month ago but the quality is amazing. If you are looking for more of a water friendly option I recommend the pointer traditions biothane collar they work great and come with the name plate as well
Biting down and locking jaw
My gsp puppy refuses to drop anything out of her mouth. Random pieces of trash, shoes rocks, sticks, exc for example. When I'm working that bird drive and giving her pigeons she will not let that thing go even when it's Christmas morning and I have another bird in my hand. She takes off and tries to hide. I try to eventually take it out if her mouth but we are talking about like 5 minutes later. I've raised alot of labs and im so use to the love of the retrieve. What do I do? Im sorry I probably sound like I have so many problems but GSP pups are another animal lol

In the virtual course I think Jared said something along the lines of push it back toward them and then pull out of there mouth. And I think maybe something about grabbing the back hawk as you take it from them. I’m not 100% on that tho.
Is the BGD course worth $500?
I get asked every week: 'Is the BGD course worth $500?' Here's my answer: if you hunt behind your dog and you want him reliable when it counts, yes. Classroom tab.

For someone like myself who’s never trained a dog like this. It is absolutely worth it. And I love the fact I can go back and watch each step over and over again as many times as needed until my pup can successfully complete it. If anyone is on the fence about. Go for it.
I've been building something.
We filmed it in July — five modules, a 30-day daily protocol with drill sheets, and an opening day simulation at the end. It's called 30 day Pre-season Protocol and it launches September 1. $149. Drop 'in' below if you want the link when it goes live.

Is this something for dogs at any level? Or is it more for the supper advanced level, that’s already out hunting wild birds?
