Great days. Great Dogs. Iowa Pheasant Hunt 11/23
Two separate late November days in Iowa hunting wild pheasants on public land. Skye and Roxy do all the heavy lifting, they are field bred golden retrievers. At time of filming Skye is almost 8 and Roxy a shade over 2 years old. Hunting with a dog will change your life in so many good ways. Enjoy.

Minnesota Pheasant Hunt. Late Season. Wild Roosters. December 2023.
zhlédnutí 1,8KPřed 7 měsíci
After Christmas I head to Southern Minnesota to hunt with Skye and Roxy the golden retrievers. With no snow and warm weather the late season hunting is difficult but we manage to find some birds. I'm mainly a public land hunter, but the second half of the video we are on private ground.

November 3rd 2023 hunting public land in Iowa. Me, Skye, and Roxy got our first ever three rooster limit in Iowa. I love hunting with these field bred golden retrievers. They have great noses and instincts for hunting, I highly recommend the breed for any upland hunter. Every time I take these girls afield they impress me with something new.

This is a hunting video made up of various clips from the early part of the 2023 MN Pheasant season. Filmed 100% fair chase public land wild birds. The dogs are the star of the show here. Skye and Roxy are both field bred golden retrievers. Zeus appears as well, he is a black lab and an excellent hunter.
Nice habitat 👍
Yup they've got some great prairies and wetlands in Iowa. I've been missing it ever since the season ended.
was the part that golden retrievers are not a good choice for the serious hunter because of being too soft and loving and an overgown lapdog a joke or were you for real? are they a good choice for the serious hunter?
They are excellent hunters. That was a little bit of sarcasm. :)
Great video
Thanks James, it was a great day for sure.
what choke bro
what choke?
I/C in the bottom barrel Mod in the top. 12ga 1 1/4 ounce shells.

Pocket dialing 911 seriously??. Phone OFF.
Just a quick note to thank you for sharing your hunts, they have been therapeutic in helping our young golden get over the loss of our older female. In a bit of coincidence, her name was Skye as well. We noticed our guy reacting to you calling your Skye on the videos. He sat and watched every moment, so now he knows where she is and that she is happy and chasing birds. Dogs are amazing and we love our goldens. Thank you!
I am so glad to hear how much you love your dogs, and that the videos have been a comfort to your younger golden retriever after the passing of your older female. The time we spend and the memories we make with our dogs are priceless.
do you have a instagram? would like to connect over a few questions
I've been late getting to your videos. Good work Marty! Give the pups a scratch for me.
Will do! And thanks for putting out more podcasts. They are great.
Thanks for the video! Always look forward to more of Skye and Roxy. So far the winter looks good for carryover, but we will need some moisture soon. You have a couple good pheasant hunters commenting!
That town reminds me of Mr. Deeds😂
🤣I was waiting for someone to make the connection!!! Thank you!
Really enjoyable video. Skye is nice to watch and definitely works with. you. I love the tall Big Blue stem fields that are thick. Lets hope the drought lets some of it come back to what it was a few years ago. Have a great off season and I look forward to watching Roxy and Skye do their thing next year.
Curious. When you show that pheasant hit the power line, how far did you zoom in Shotcut? I'm still editing with a nearly 10-yr-old laptop & proxy videos, I think at 540p. So sometimes, like if my video shows a bunch of pheasants way, way out there, I know they're there, but I really can't see them at all when editing. All kind of guess work, & I never know quite what I'll end up with until the video is done exporting & I can view it on a larger screen. Probably time for a fairly major laptop upgrade.
Hmmm, I can't remember the zoom % right now. I know exactly what you're talking about, and I did the same thing as you said, I just took a guess while working with the proxy and it turned out. It would be handy not to have to deal with proxys at times. My computer is 8 years old, so I'm in the same boat.
You're right, words can't express your love for your dogs, but your video & pictures sure did. Nice work!!! Very, VERY fun to watch. A few of those flushes were spectacular. And a deer here. An owl there. I love how proud Skye is of her roosters. The circles just out of reach! 😂 She just loves having them. Very nice. Thanks for sharing.
Nice video. Love your passion. Donning waders to cross the waters. I once stripped down and had to carry my brittany across because he hates water.
Great video! Love those beautiful Goldens and roosters! Thanks for sharing.
Hey Marty - I'm a setter guy but I train all makes and models of gun dogs at HutsonHeritage in Idaho. I have come to enjoy goldens immensely and was excited to find your videos. I have since shared them with my golden client/friends. Keep up the excellent work and continue to - Enjoy Your Dog(s)!
I'm really glad you've enjoyed the videos! I'm just a blue collar guy and not a master hunter nor dog handler. That being said I absolutely love upland hunting and watching these dogs work. I learn all I can about bird hunting and dog handling, enjoy the successes I have, and always learn when I make a mistake. My belief is that as long as you and the dogs are learning and enjoying your time afield, then you're on the right path. Both dogs are from hunting lines of golden retrievers. Thank you Jack.
Some gorgeous fish! Browns? My family has spent a lot of time in the Bighorn Mountains in Wyoming and we'd fly fish the streams. Mostly Brookies, but some Rainbows and Cutthroats in certain places. Great hunt. When that bird flushed at 8:40, you could HEAR it was a rooster. Big, strong flush. Very cool. It's hard not to beat ourselves up over the misses, but all we can do is keep hunting and keep shooting. Excellent master class on finding downed birds. Patience and trust the dogs. Great idea to have that orange ribbon to mark the initial fall site. Was that bird dead when Skye brought him back? Love the pics at the end. Fantastic stuff!!
Dogs running amok.....
Nice Video🤩🤩

We had a Brittany that caught a live healthy rooster and pinned it in the water on the edge of a drainage ditch...
Love seeing how happy dogs are when they are working for birds. Glad you were able to recover the second bird. Great video. Thanks.
muzzle on that pooch says veteran
A pheasant hunt back in time! Haha, just had to give you a hard time. Such a cool snag on that second bird. You've got some great pups!!
😆edited to the correct year of 2023🎉.
Nice short hunt - so cool that Skye caught the second rooster! Another great video, thanks!
Nothing like a day afield with good dogs.
Good work Marty! Love watching Skye and Roxy, Keep after 'em!
Great video, I love your golden retrievers. Were they hard to train to stay in close? What exactly does "field bred" mean?
You're like most of us, pretty decent dogs, on a good day shoot well and on a bad day really not well. Enjoying your videos. I have another 5 months till our season starts.
Are those quarter moon goldens
No, they are from kennels in MN and WI.
@@GoldenSkye cool
Great video and beautiful dogs! I hunt with a Golden, and love how everything changes when he gets "birdie." The pace quickens, the tail wags faster and faster, then in circles; it's almost like he's drunk on bird scent! Your video captures this very well - thank you for sharing!!
Thanks for the comment, that's what I try to show on the videos. There's nothing like watching a good bird dog work in the field.
Just came across your channel and subscribed The first bird dog I hunted with was a Golden Retriever. Best dog I’ve ever hunted over. Absolutely love them. Only reason I don’t have one is because of the junk that gets in there hair from hunting. So I have Labs. But man they are great upland dogs hands down. Look forward to seeing more vids. Thx.
Hi great video where do to hunt in iowa I am from nw iowa and have lots of great bird land
Beautiful dogs! I also hunt with a Golden - my favorite bird dog by far! Thanks for sharing.
Early season conditions make it so easy for cripples to disappear. Incredible find by Skye. The world is right again when your dog recovers a bird that could just as easily have been lost. Looks like the season is going well!! Great video, take care.
Way to get after 'em! Great dogs and lots of fun. Makes me wish I spent more time last season chasing roosters. Give Roxy and Skye an ear scratch for me. Randy S
Those are not your run of the mill GRD's. You can tell they have American Field in her blood lines. They blend so well in that environment!
Very cool. My wife wants a goldie and I need a hunting buddy for water and upland. How are they in a kayak or canoe?
Hope this can help but I’ve taken mine out in a hunting boat at 5 in the morning heading in then later out of a swamp. They love the water so like most bird dogs there going to want to take a dip before they get in the boat, but then my golden retriever will hop in the boat with us on command, and since he’s such a good cuddler he’ll just sit right infront of me letting me hug/ hold him Last year we were heading out to the swamp and didn’t know our friends dog was already out there, he freaked out my dog but my golden just gave him a little growl tho stayed in the boat. There good friends he just wasn’t expecting to see another dog out in the swamp. So yeah golden retrievers can be great with boats/kayaks as long as you work with them
This is Midwest pheasant hunting. This is not pheasant shooting at a club with planted birds, dog handlers, people to pick up your shells and train your dogs for you. There is a big difference! Not that I don't like a nice social setting... but this is what we do that no one sees. Thank you for sharing!
I need to book a trip with a guide!
Awesome work, Skye & Roxy! Looks like you guys had a pretty great season! --Ace
