On today's episode is Grayson Highfield, who was part of the Women Hunt 2023 class. Grayson currently lives up in Wyoming and really enjoys spending time outdoors, especially with her horses riding in the backcountry, writing and currently working for the Wyoming Wildlife Federation as their outreach coordinator. We touched on a lot of different topics during this conversation about life growing up, writing, getting her first horse and the decision to apply to the Women Hunt program and how that has changed her outlook on a lot of different things for the better! Excited that Grayson was able to join us at this year's summit and to be able to share part of her story here with you all.

Hey everybody, welcome back to another great episode of the Impact Outdoors Podcast coming to you from the 2024 Hunt Fish Podcast Summit at the Warren Ranch. I am excited to have my good friend Mr. Josh Stratton from the Mule Deer Foundation on the show today. Josh is the Senior Director of Marketing and Communications for MDF along with being an avid outdoorsman and conservationist. We had a great conversation about some of the projects and initiatives going on with MDF across the country as well as talking about our love for our home state of Oklahoma and how much it has to offer in the hunting and fishing arena. With it's rise in popularity in the hunting world, there comes the need for more education and information about its resources and the Mule Deer Foundation is doing just that with some exciting new projects and collaborations about mule deer in Oklahoma. There may be a few rabbit holes we go down in this one too with quite a few laughs so be sure to stay tuned for a fun and engaging conversation and be sure to follow Josh and MDF on social media and get involved with them through one of your local chapters!

After traveling to Africa with her husband on a hunting safari, Sue Tidwell discovered a story of how the people of Africa rely on hunting not only as a means for conservation, but to provide for their families and to deter poaching. Sue made a promise to help convey the message of why hunting and conservation is so important over there and shares that message in her book, "Cries of the Savanna". Be sure to check out this episode and grab a copy of Sue's book in print or listen to the audio version.

For most of his life, Chef Joshua Schwencke has utilized food and the different ways of cooking it as a gateway to teaching people the value of doing it yourself. Whether it is through the harvest of wild game or shopping at your local meat market, Josh has been instrumental in teaching people not just how to cook, but to have fun with it, learn the history behind it and to not be afraid of trying something new. We had a great conversation at the 2024 Hunt Fish Podcast Summit and also were treated to one of his Gastronomy Live cooking events and the group enjoyed a wonderful meal together. Besides his Gastronomy Live events, Josh can also be found at events across the country serving as the Executive Chef for the Wild Sheep Foundation and the Women Hunt Program, along with also helping with the Field to Fork classes at the FTW Ranch in Texas. Be sure to follow him on his social media channels and attend one of his events!

Very excited to welcome Indiana First Lady Janet Holcomb onto the show for this episode for a great conversation about her growing up in the outdoors, navigating through her career in business and politics and then reengaging with the outdoors through her love of hunting and shooting sports. Janet has done a great job as First Lady by being a mentor to so many in getting into the outdoors. Janet and I talk about what it was like after being part of a home invasion and how that spurred her to take action in being better prepared and trained in handling a firearm. And we also got to talk about some of her recent hunting adventures and her passion for sheep hunting. Don't miss this one! Be sure to subscribe to the show and leave us a rating and review!!!
