The Hunting Dog Podcast
Ron Boehme — Hunting Dog Expert & Host
Ron Boehme has had a passion for bird hunting since 1973, when he bought his first license to chase pheasants in his home state of Illinois. Since that time, he has hunted in 22 states and 3 provinces, mostly with a bird dog by his side. Moving to Michigan allowed him to build his kennel, Dancing Duke Kennels, and begin a lifetime membership with the North American Versatile Hunting Dog Association, where he is currently a Senior Judge. Ron is currently ranked 39th among the top 10 wing shooters in the country.
About the Podcast
We are all about the hunting dog because dog people are our people. We love the conversations before, during, and especially after a hunt. Learning about new places, terrain, or local hunting styles has meant as much to us as the hunt itself. This podcast is an ever-growing diary of our life experiences with dogs and friends — some old, some who have passed on, and those we have yet to meet.
Episode 413: Boots Equal Birds
Phil Francone, Owner/CEO of Meindl USA, set Ron up with a pair of boots last summer.
"My start in bird dogs and upland hunting spans over four decades. When it comes to success, Miles Equals Birds. There are two rules to successful bird hunting: your gun needs to fit you, and your boots need to fit even better. I am not saying that Meindl’s will make you a better shot, but they will carry you through the season in comfort. So if Miles Equals Birds, then Meindl’s Equals Miles." — Ron Boehme
