264. Old Hemlock

Gun Dog It Yourself

You've at least heard George Bird Evans referenced at some point even if you've just barely dipped a toe in the upland hunting space. His words continue to inspire and motivate upland hunters even decades removed from his passing. Come and take a step back in time to catch a glimpse of what it was like for George, and his wife Kaye, living at the old 1815 cabin nestled amongst the inspiring forests in the small Northeastern corner of West Virginia. This property is best known as 'Old Hemlock.'
