Western hunting is as diverse as it gets from pursuing coastal Blacktails or pigs in central California, Antelope on the open plains of Wyoming, Roosevelts in the western units of Oregon or chasing bugles in a drainage somewhere in Colorado. The opportunities, game and landscapes offer a multitude of possibilities to all bold enough to challenge themselves to adventure past their comfort zone. Whether it is to carry on a tradition passed down through generations, or those looking to answer a curiosity or a primal calling, adventure seekers, field to plate providers or the skilled woodsman or woman.

When I talk about people that I respect or "fan boy" over its no BS, over the last year the time I have shared with the Retteraths on the podcast, over the phone or over a meal is time well spent. Sharing in their experiences afield with family, the values they bring to the table and the laughs is IMO second to none. Salt of the earth period! Enjoy the episode.
