Hal Herring is a lifelong outdoorsman, writer, and host of the Backcountry Hunters & Anglers Podcast and Blast. Hal has been an advocate for public land for many decades, and is perhaps one of the most prolific writers on the subject. 

 

Hal joins me this week to talk about his motivations behind his public land projects. We talk a little history, and what hunters need to be aware of today as we strive to protect them. We also touch on the politics of the public land debate. Hal is very well versed in this important topic, check out his website here! https://www.halherring.com/
