Valley quail & chukars: industry insider talks shotgun business and his favorite quarry
Manage episode 419457708 series 2952084
This week's "Industry Insider" is Andy McCormick, president of sales & marketing for Legacy Sports International, whose Pointer shotgun brand is our first topic. We talk all things shotgun business: design and manufacturing, quality control, trends in the industry, and advice on what to look for when shopping for a new shotgun. We cover the relative advantages of small gauge guns, and why so many hunters are looking at side-by-sides.
Then, we venture into valley quail country, a place Andy knows well. From a base in Reno, Nevada, he roams the sagebrush flats, folds and cracks in the landscape for those elusive little devils. We get advice on strategy and tactics, equipment, and why dogs love the little buggers so much. Plus, advice on finding public access and why chukars are the perfect addition to a quail hunt.
This week on "Road Trip," I outline a favored New Mexico destination, and listeners chip in with essential items to put in your hunting vest.
