EP. 325: Sharptails, Prairie Chickens, Sage Grouse, and Starting the Upland Season

Host Bob St.Pierre is joined by The Flush’s Travis Frank, Western Wingshooter Podcast’s Tyler Webster, and Pheasants Forever Journal Editor Tom “Carp” Carpenter for a discussion focused on prairie grouse. The conversation covers late summer dog training during the “catch & release” season, habitat, dog work, hunting, and cooking approaches to sharp-tailed grouse, greater prairie chickens, and sage grouse. Episode Highlights: • Webster talks about his love for September grouse hunting and teases our brand new two-part Montana Grouse film released in collaboration with onX Hunt. • Carpenter, the most veteran of the prairie grouse hunters, tells listeners exactly how he finds sharp-tailed grouse in a sea of grass. He also previews PF & QF’s upcoming Prairie Grouse Primer presented by Sportsman’s Guide, which will be released on August 19, 2025. On the Wing Podcast is proudly fueled by Purina Pro Plan.
