Summary

Tonight, Bob and Kevin were lucky to speak with Fritz Heller, a Michigan man who knows a thing or two about hunting for grouse. Search "grouse commander" and you'll find out what I mean... Fritz has been hunting grouse for years and has a unique method you don't normally hear about; he uses labs, only. He has found that if you can train the dog properly, the grouse flush better by a dog than by a person, so you're able to position yourself better to increase chances of a clean shot. We learned how Fritz trains his labs for grouse hunting, the weather patterns and where to find them during various times of the season and I'd be a liar if I said I didn't take notes. I really had a good time talking with Fritz, he's the man. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
