And, legacy is something my guest, his father, and his father's father know how to create.Today, I'm joined by the President and CEO of Weatherby (American Firearms Manufacturer), Adam Weatherby.

ADAM WEATHERBY

Today, I'm joined by my friend and the President of Weatherby, Adam Weatherby. I met Adam a couple of years ago through mutual friends at MTNOPS and, in getting to know him, and hearing more about the history of Weatherby and his vision for, I knew we needed to sit down for a conversation.Adam started working at Weatherby more than 20 years ago in tech. support, warranty service, and sales and marketing before leaving after four years to pursue his ambitions to become a pastor.
