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.

It was so good to be back at the Western Hunting and Conservation Expo in Salt Lake, recording live eps. from the Initial Ascent booth! This series has so so much to offer in insight and perspectives. I sat down with "The Bugler" Dirk Durham. The moniker says it all in terms of his calling ability and prowess in the elk woods but the amount of education and mentorship he provides to so so many elk hunters new and old is next level, it is well worth a conversation.

Episode 272 with Armando Martinez of The BowHitch

Monday Feb 07, 2022
I sat down with Armando Martinez of The Bow Hitch and talk about the random acts giveaway they're running. Given the things we see on a day to day all the conflicts, all the discord and just doing something random and kind seems to be a stretch. Things like this just deserve a highlight.

Episode 271 with Ed Morris and Mark Nethery ; The Template
Monday Jan 31, 2022
Monday Jan 31, 2022
I sat down with Ed Morris and Mark Nethery, two gentlemen who have held office with The League of Kentucky Sportsmen. The League has been around since 1935 and advocating for the sportsmen and women in the fine state of Kentucky. Walking the halls of the state legislature with one goal, regardless of the subset in the outdoors to fight, weigh in, show our power as a voting block and insure that decisions are based in sound management. With the amount of years and lessons learned the value in experience is worth its weight in gold, especially with the current state of affairs and opposition we face. Enjoy the episode!
