#009 - Long range hunting is something that tends to divide people. I don't think it needs to. I think we all have different definitions of what fair chase is, but hopefully this episode will help bring people together.

#007 - I almost got thrown in jail on my first out of state hunt. In this episode, I share what happened, and how you can avoid making the same major mistakes I did on my first out of state hunt in Wyoming. Having only hunted in my home state of Utah my whole life, I didn't understand all the laws and almost got in real trouble.
If you want to see the picture of the mule deer doe (missing nearly all her teeth) that I harvested last year go to the show notes.

#004 - How can killing an animal have anything to do with conservation? Well, more than you might think. We will discuss an important Supreme Court case from the 1840s that was a pivotal moment for how public lands and wildlife are managed in the U.S. We discuss how funds are raised for conservation, how hunting gets people involved, and all the principles of public trust doctrine.
