The mainstay of Wild Wing is our upland bird hunting. If you remember the days when seeing 20 to 30 coveys of quail in a day was not uncommon, you deserve to enjoy a Wild Wing hunt.
If you’ve ever been disappointed by your hunt at a “released” quail operation, we can assure you that won’t be the case here. Our native warm-season grasses and “Covey Base Camp” method of creating habitat means our birds are healthy and well-fed, and they’ve adapted to the kind of habitat quail are supposed to live in. When you step past one of our well-trained pointing dogs and a covey of 20-plus birds rockets up in every direction, you’ll understand what we mean by “The Wild Wing Difference”
Speaking of dogs, our professionally trained English pointers and English setters are bred from some of the finest lines available. All of our dogs are steady to wing and shot. This makes them a pleasure to hunt over. Furthermore, because they are under the absolute control of our dog handlers, you will get more chances for follow-up shots on late-rising birds. Of course, your dogs are welcome at Wild Wing as well.
Combine all of this with our “no-limit” format, and you”ll understand why our reputation as the nation’s premier upland lodge continues to grow.
Located in Kentucky, we offer the following Upland Bird Hunts:
- Quail
- Pheasant
- Chukar
- Hungarian Partridge
All hunts are based on a 2-gun minimum.
Our Philosophy of developing a gun dog in the proper manner is to expose the young dog to all of the elements that mother nature has to offer and some that she does not, including numerous bird contacts. We believe that this must be done on a daily training basis. We have found that by doing this we build on their natural pointing ability and desire, and when done in the proper manner and time this will produce a bird dog that has a lot of style and intensity around their game. We do not believe in or participate in the idea that all can be accomplished in 90 days, and leave the dog with the intensity that the owner desires around game. We believe in using a gentle hand to achieve the desired goals, one that will leave the dog with a great desire to hunt and produce game for the owner. Through our habitat and quail management programs and with the diversity of our habitat we are able to expose a dog to a wide range of hunting patterns with numerous bird contacts daily. We are able to expose the dog to more contacts during our training then most dogs will encounter in a lifetime.
After traveling throughout North America in search of Bobwhite Quail it is my opinion that Wild Wing Lodge provides the finest quail hunting in America today. ~Todd Kalter (Rutland, Vermont)
Our training is done by professional handlers and trainers. Wild Wing Kennel’s bird dog trainers reputation, as very good and professional trainers and handlers, able to produce the type of dog that is pleasing to the eye to watch, and very functional for the walking bird hunter, has been honed with over 25 years experience in the field of training upland bird dogs and over 10 years in the upland hunting business. A testimonial to our ability to produce a quality gun dog is the fact that many past clients have become lifelong friends and continue to request our services.
