That’s a wrap on our 2025 trips to MI. We went out for a quick weekend trip in September and were treated to hot and dry weather and bluebird skies. The conditions weren’t easy to say the least but all the dogs managed to have multiple bird contacts.
It was a long week for our October trip with hot and dry conditions to kick off the trip and similar to last year we hunted 7 days straight. Even with the warmer temperatures we managed to move woodcock and grouse everyday with a total of 62 birds by the end of the trip and 49 flushed over point. We capped off the trip with all dogs having birds shot for them including all the baby beans having their first wild birds shot for them!
