Fireside Outdoors

Have you pushed yourself lately to become better?  Your potential for growth only comes after continually pushing yourself to the limit on a regular basis.  I attended a 3 gun firearms instructor course that did just that.  50yard shots with a 4" pistol are not an issue for me!  You never know what you can do if you don't try it.

Pittman Robertson funds for 2020 were up!  More federal aid for the advancement of recreation shooting and wildlife use in our 50 states is available!  encourage your agency to take advantage of those funds.

Social media censorship is a thing.  Daily, long time firearm, shooting sports, hunting personalities are being censored or "fact checked" for their beliefs in the industry.  Don't be discouraged.  Other options are out there.  Check out MEWE.

Whats your favorite knife?  I'm a knife lover and have had many favorites.  Today we will discuss the Field & Stream article "The Best 25 Knives ever made".  

What is the Pittman Robertson Act?  Started in 1939, it created funding for wildlife management and restoration.  A dedicated fund to deliver on conservation promises by our local governments.

What else is happening in the legislative world?  We will discuss some local Missouri House Bills going through committee right now.  We also will discuss the HR 1957 passed by our US Congress to give dedicated funding to the land management agencies in the US for property restoration and recreational management.  A much needed boost to the agencies for sure.

Did you know I could play guitar?  Listen to a song I recorded, "Almost Home", no editing, just me and my Alvarez.  Mercy me is owner and I just simply sang, my own way to my own chords.

What are the top 10 cartridges on the market today?

Missouri takes a bold stand to protect the 2A rights of our citizens.  Thank you Missouri Congress!

Come visit Winter Park Resort with me as we ski down hill and take some time away from Missouri to enjoy another piece of God's creation.

What is going on with hunter's today?  A double murder on Reelfoot lake brings outdoor enthusiasts to question the resolve of our hunters and anglers across the nation.

Missouri's Natural Wonders Guidebook - where to go in Missouri to find nature, family, and our creator.

Did you know the opportunity to hunt the elusive 'Big Foot' could be just around the corner?  An Oklahoma Representative has filed a bill in order to request a season on Big Foot.  Hunters would only be able to trap the beast, and a $25000.00 reward for the bounty of its capture is possible.  Its hard to understand why a congress person would think this was needed, but who am I to judge?

Peregrine Falcon's are taken off the endangered list for the Missouri Department of Conservation.  The birds have made a remarkable comeback and breeding success is documented at an expedited rate.  DDT was the demise of the species over the past 60 years, but conservation partners across the nation have enabled the birds to recover beyond expectation.  

XL Pipeline?  What is it and what's the big deal?  I wasn't sure either, so we dive a little into the Tar Sands Oil industry and what it means for our environment.  Updates will be coming along the way through more episodes because I have a lot to learn too!

Thanks for listening.  Remember, Adventure Begins Here!
