"Born into every generation are restless men with feet that will not stand still, eyes that search for distant mountains, hearts that long to go where the scene is new and the promise of adventure is alive."                                                                                                                                                                                             - George Laycock

There's no better way to describe Ed Vance, our guest on this week's re-release podcast.  

Clay visited Ed at his home in the Greenhorn Mountains of Southern California to discuss his inability to stand still as the mountains called him with the promise of bear and lion. Ed has spent a lifetime following hounds and learning about life. They also talk about Ed's book, "Trained by a Hound Dog."  

This goes down as one of our favorite podcasts of all time.

This week at the Bear Hunting Magazine Global Headquarters Clay talks with Matt and Weston Taylor and Bear Newcomb about their bear, deer, turkey and hog hunting in 2020. However, the meat of the conversation comes at the end of the podcast when they talk about processing bear meat and fat and how to use it. Matt killed a bear this year and he goes into detail about how he's used the bear, including the bear grease. Matt and his family prefer bear meat over deer meat. You'll enjoy the stories and you'll learn something as well.
