Public Land - North Dakota - Brad Schumacher

This series highlights the highs and lows of hunting public land across different regions of America — the early mornings, the pressure, the competition, and the grind that comes with earning every bird.

In this episode, Jeff Stanfield and Andy Shaver are joined by Brad Schumacher from North Dakota.

Brad explains what makes North Dakota one of the premier destinations for waterfowl hunting and why thousands of duck and goose hunters make the pilgrimage there every fall. He discusses the state's abundant public access, diverse habitat, and incredible migration that combine to create some of the best hunting opportunities in North America.

The guys also talk about the vast amount of duck and goose hunting available throughout North Dakota, from prairie potholes and wetlands to agricultural fields that attract migrating birds throughout the season. 

He also recounts an unforgettable pheasant hunting trip where his group stumbled upon much more than a wild rooster, leading to a bizarre and unforgettable story that proves you never know what you'll encounter in the field.
