We sit down with Keith Warnke, R3 Coordinator for the Midwest Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies, to dive into the real issues shaping the future of hunting. From hunter recruitment and reactivation to funding shortfalls and the social image of hunters, Keith breaks it all down with clarity and conviction. We talk conservation, access, splash limits, and how the words and images we choose as hunters impact public perception. It’s not about trophies—it’s about staying relevant, having fun, and making sure the next generation wants to go along for the ride.

Also: NA beers, coffee snobbery, and why hunting on a Packer Sunday might be your best bet.
