Is it a walk in the woods, or are we hiking? There is a difference, and today we are joined by John Felton from the Instagram and YouTube channel "As the Crow Flies Hiking" John is a passionate backpacker and hiker from Birmingham, Alabama. He hikes primarily in the southeast, but travels west annually to hike some of the beautiful areas in the western parts of the USA. 

Today we discuss how to get started, gear he uses and recommends, and why he is drawn to the woods. We also discuss his faith and why it is important to him and how it merges it into his message and his activities.

As an outdoor writer there are few who carry the mantle better or with more integrity than today's guest. Larry Weishuhn has written more, been on TV more, hunted every contintent and taken more game than just about anyone alive. But it is his humility, his integrity and his passion for Christ that is infectious. Larry is the real deal, as a member of the Legends of the Outdoors Hall of Fame, and more accolades than I can name, he is a joy to speak with and to know. I am honored to have on the show today Mr. Whitetail. 

We will discuss "why deer?" and get his indight into his passion for deer and deer hunting and we will also discuss his love of handgun hunting. Larry is the reason I began hunting with a handgun and having the opportunity to discuss handgun hunting with him was a dream come true.

What is America's next great firearms company? Watchtower is on the verge of assuming that title. Built from strictly American made parts, designed by Americans, and assembled in Texas. Watchtower Firearms is staking its claim as the next great American firearms company. Founded by Jason Colosky, a veteran who served our country for many years, his dedication to quality, and America are second to none.
