Reid has been hunting since he could hold a gun, at a young age you would often find him and his single shot .410 walking around the farm taking care of pests. His love for bird hunting really took off when his dad introduced him and his lab to upland game, which they’d play hooky and hunt together. Reid met Riley through bird hunting and they’ve created many great memories and shot many limits together in the field.

Riley has grown up around bird hunting his entire life, his father and grandfather both hunted and trained Labrador Retrievers. He got his first bird dog (Duke) five years ago and it changed his outlook on hunting and fueled his passion stronger than ever. During the season Riley and Duke are inseparable. When the geese and ducks have fled south to warmer weather, you’ll find them down south chasing Pheasants and grouse.
