I for one like wild Chukar hunting better than any other game bird, probably because that is what I grew up hunting when I was young just west of Reno, NV. That being said, you in no way over exaggerated the need for both man and dog to get in great shape for such an event. I would also add that the terrain Chukars live in can be EXTREMELY hard on the dogs pads so if at all possible, work your dog on rocks before the trip to toughen their feet up(or bring a few sets of dog boots). This subject comes at a good time for me as I am leaving tomorrow for a Chukar hunt with another member of this forum and the area we are going to kind of sums it up for wild Chukar hunting-it is named "Hells Canyon" located on the border of Oregon and Idaho. Oh God, I hope I am ready for this!!! Dave, great comments and advice for approaching wild Chukar hunting.
