    These two stalked this running covey for about 200 yards until they finally got the birds stopped so I can get a shot. Nice team work.

    Hunted couple of different areas that I haven’t hunted for a couple of years, nice too see the late season numbers are still healthy.

    I like when I see my dogs running around a 100 mph,(Disclaimer -100 mph is an exaggeration) then all of a sudden gets scent of a bird, stops on a dime, then freezes in whatever position they are in.

    I love when I get too see the chess game between predator vs prey

    Reagan Olivares posted an update in the group HGD Community 2 years, 5 months ago

    If you follow the Higgins Method you have heard, or in his writings Brad mention the Circle of Death strategy. If you never heard or seen it happen then here is a video of Kepa and Ekahi demonstrating this strategy on Valley Quail.

    The pack doing the circle of death, this is the same strategy (surrounding the prey)…[Read more]

    Reagan Olivares posted an update in the group HGD Community 2 years, 5 months ago

    This video shows the pack on point, as I approach part of the covey flushed before the set up and both dogs remain steady to the flush. As I start my approach again Kepa remains on point which tells me that there are more birds holding, as you will see Ekahi loosens up a bit but does not leave and looks like she is…[Read more]

    Kepa and Ekahi managing a covey of Valley Quail.
    For me I use the Higgins Method because it allows the dog too manage the bird instead of stopping at first scent, it also allows the dogs working in a brace the freewill too figure out how too work as a team, and trust each others strategy in order to achieve success…[Read more]

    (HGD)Kepa and Ekahi, working a brace on Valley Quail using the Higgins Method.
    You will see 2 clips. The first clip shows Kepa on point, as I approach you will see Ekahi come out from the thickets she turns the corner sees Kepa and stops. We were unable to get a shot on the bird but the dog work was great. I put this…[Read more]

    This video shows Ekahi managing a covey of Valley Quail

    For me, I use the Higgins Method which allows the dog freedom to manage running birds, not stop at first scent, but decelerate and be stealthy so you don’t flush the birds before the set up. The Higgins Method calls this the…[Read more]

    (HGD) Ekahi, Valley Quail, 10-27-19
    This video shows Ekahi doing a beautiful stop too flush on a wild flush, then waits for the hunt dead release, and is rewarded with a bird in the mouth for not chasing.
