Episode Description from the Publisher

If you’re thinking about using training scent to start a young dog… this episode is for you.Training scent can be a useful tool—but it’s also one of the most misunderstood parts of starting a hunting dog. A lot of beginners are told to use it, but very few are told how, when, or how long.In this episode, I break down what training scent actually is, why people use it, where it can help, and where it can start holding your dog back. I also walk through how I’ve used it myself, what I’ve seen in young dogs, and how to transition from setup training to real game.The goal isn’t to tell you not to use it—the goal is to help you understand it, so you can make better decisions and give your dog the best chance to succeed.If you’re just getting started, or even if you’ve been doing this a while and want a different perspective, this one should help you think a little deeper about how you’re starting your dogs. If this episode helped you, share it with someone getting started! 🔗 RESOURCES & LINKS📘 Rabbit Dog Starter Bundle (Book + 3 Bonus Audios):https://bawlinoutkennels.com/products/rabbit-dog-starter-bundle-book-3-bonus-audiosDog Man Insider Community (Facebook Group):https://www.facebook.com/groups/1562828264897293💳 Join Dog Man Insider (Stripe):https://buy.stripe.com/7sYcMYdym52b4Sq8Aj7bW02
