In a memorable hunting adventure this spring Brian Mehmen had the opportunity to travel to scenic British Columbia and hunt prime territory for black bear with a few of his best Muscatine, Iowa, buddies: Brian Wolfe, Troy Fridley and Steve Harding - a.k.a. "The River Boys." Each hunter had two tags on this six-day adventure that was filled with ups and downs, as you'll hear. Thank you as always for listening and please share the podcast with family or friends to help get the word out.

We are pleased to announce that RBO member Chris Thomas of Oklahoma is the winner of a free hunt through our annual membership draw. Chris will be headed to New Zealand for a little red stag action and a chance for a few additional species in this package hunt. All hunting expenses paid! Not bad for someone who's never even won so much as a can cozi before (according to Chris)! What we didn’t know is that it has always been Chris’ dream hunt to head to New Zealand to hunt red stag! Chris joins Brian and Brad today to talk about the upcoming experience.

In the mid-1990's Johnny Cash made a hit of Geoff Mack's song "I've Been Everywhere." Well in terms of hunting RBO Advisor Pat Stuart can just about say I've hunted everywhere!

Learn what's really most important if you have plans to expand your hunting horizons. And if you do, folks like Pat and our talented advisors throughout the country, are ready to help you put a plan together. We want to thank you for listening and please share the podcast with family and friends if you haven't already.

Many of us have an international hunting adventure on our bucket list. RBO member David McBride did. In fact not only was he planning on going overseas, he decided to take the family with him. So David and his two sons, Lincoln and Calvin, made the trip of lifetime as they went in search of Ibex and Marco Polo sheep in Asia. Find out how they were able to plan the trip and learn what the outcome was on this week's podcast with Brian Mehmen and Brad Dana. There's only one thing better than going on an international hunt and that's sharing the experience with your family. The McBride's did it - and you can too! As always thank you for listening and please spread the word about our podcast to family and friends.
