Hi,
Sounds to me like you need to go back to basics with her. Do you have access to any enclosed area, garden etc? If so I would practice in here with her. It sounds like at the moment she is hunting for herself and not for or with you. She has realised that obviously when you let her off, she can get away from you and do basically what she likes, hunt the woods up for herself and potentially flush or find something that interest's her. What's your bond like with her? Does she have good eye contact with you or does she not give you eye contact?If she does not have a bond with you or respect you, in my experience you will never get a dog doing something 100% for you.
Sorry, I am going on. Like i said I would practice in the garden, get a good bond with her, practice you recall to her name, clapping of hands, use a high pitch happy tone of voice and the whistle. Get down on your knee's and open you arms so you look inviting to her. Sounds silly but never tell a dog off for coming back to you, know matter what it has done. Just that one time can put the dog off for life. When she does come back, make a big fuss of her. You can even put her on lead or long line sit her up in front of you and call her to you, encouraging with lead. I however, if I could would reframe from this method, as i think it teaches the dog to break the sit and stay command. As they say practice makes perfect, keep repeating exercise until you call her or peep you whistle and she is straight to your feet. For the moment i would just walk her on the lead, until you recall is mastered. I was once told, if the foundations are right, the rest of the house will be. Just something to think about.
Good luck
