Beards Creek Adventures

This week's episode is a little different than some of our others. Typically we focus in on Faith, Family or Stewardship but this week we touch all bases and then some. We are really excited to introduce you to this family. Davey is a logger and runs a growing YouTube Chanel and his wife Mindy a recent cancer survivor is homeschooling four children and running a YouTube Channel of her own. Throughout the podcast we are joined by a couple of their beautiful children. It was such a joy to see faith, family, and stewardship come together in a single family. Check this episode out and get a glimpse into how difficult and yet rewarding life can be while following the Lord.

Ever dream of hunting Africa but think it is too expensive or too complicated logistically? We did too, but today's conversation with Boris Basso, owner of Basso Safaris in South Africa and his US rep Chad Heflin has us thinking that it is very doable and provides more bang for the buck. Boris shares his story about how he got into hunting, how he began as a PH and now as the owner of an outfitter. Chad and Boris give a great picture of what is involved logistically from start to finish. Malaria, archery versus rifle, the role hunting plays in conservation, lodge life, and taxidermy are just a few of the topics touched on. It was such an honor to be able to hear from Boris and to reconnect with Chad. If you are interested in possibly booking a safari with them check them out at the links below and get in touch with Chad Heflin.

On this episode we reconnect with good friends Nate St James and Aaron Curtis for an old fashion deer camp bull session. The conversation ebb and wanes from topics like the state of hunting and a serious fall from a saddle to the difficulties of remembering your HuntFishNY password and the hiccups. This episode has laughs and great insights.
