Publisher's summary

Lazy days spent in the uplands inevitably bring a closer connection with nature. Especially when your sport is seeking that game little bird, the woodcock. For the woodcock reassures us that the brooks are still dancing merrily through the woods and are on their way to sweet-scented meadows. So it is, the woodcock brings joy to the lovers of forest, cover, and stream.

Woodcock Shooting was first published in 1908 and in an effort to continue to bring classic upland hunting books to a wider audience than could possibly be reached by access only to those remaining copies of originally published works, Project Upland is proud to make it available in audiobook.

Great Find!

Great Find and Reintroduction by Project Upland of a book in a time not so far distant and yet very much so from our current day. The poetry alone is worth the read. However for first-time Birddog owner/handler, and soon to be first-time Woodcock Hunter; for me, this short book is a treasure trove of information of how to go about it.

Great historical woodcock literature

A must for any woodcock hunter. Edmond Davis spins a fascinating journey of the many facets that make woodcock hunting so special.

A Great Glimpse into the Past

I probably wouldn't have read this book if it weren't available on audiobook. The narrator does a great job, his voice is easy to listen to and understand. Davis' words are poetic and really transport you to that time 100 years ago. Such a great resource and experience for any wingshooter who wants to know more of his/her history, I only wish it was 10x longer!

Classics in a Modern Age

The idea of being able to listen to upland classics through audio format is incredible. With lifestyle and schedules these days picking up a physical book becomes more and more of a luxury. But this allows me to fit in topics I really want into my life. Looking forward to more! Project Upland is doing so many creative things. It has inspired me into an upland obsession. Thank you!

Great book for any woodcock hunter!

Even though this book was written more then 100 years ago, I could still relate to what we do in woodcock covers today. Well narrated and Entertaining!

The gold standard in upland birds, dogs and memori

I have listened to this book several times. It's like an old upland hunter sharing his tales and experienced opinions. If you ate thinking of giving this book a listen... do it. You'll enjoy this narrator and the author's love of the Timbledoodle.
