What's it like hunting grouse in places like Montana and New York? This week Todd is catching up with Orvis Sandanona bird hunting guide Bill Swiac to talk about eastern and western bird hunting. Bill lives in the New York Catskills and divides his time outdoors between the Northeast and Montana. Todd caught up with Bill back in December as he was driving across South Dakota.

Bill shares stories about how he was inspired to start hunting by a piece of art. He talks about his grandmother's influence around his outdoor experiences. He also talks about growing up on Long Island in a non-hunting family. We cover advice on hunting with and without dogs and talks about various considerations around ethical bird hunting shots.  Listen in as Bill calls in to discuss bird hunting.

We're talking about eastern and western bird hunting this week on the Outdoor Feast Podcast. Catskill-based hunting and fishing guide Bill Swiac joins us. Thanks for listening!Click To Tweet
