Aptitude Outdoors Podcast

Talking to an echo chamber is never helpful. That is why I decided to do this episode with Christy Frank, wildlife filmmaker (Ploverville), journalist and environmentalist. Christy is a non-hunter, vegetarian nd cares deeply about the plight of wildlife. She is not altogether opposed to hunting but also is not a hunter and is on the fence about the topic as are many people currently. I always say it is our job as hunters to not do a disservice to hunting by making it look bad. We need to do our best to shed a good light on hunting and let people realize we are not all bloodthirsty savages.

When hunting, conditions change, water levels change, winds change and that's the one thing you can always count on. That's why even if you cant scout ahead, as many of us cant with busy lives, just going for it is a good opportunity to learn for your next hunt.
