If you love bowhunting but haven't had a chance to chase pigs with the stick, we recommend you make it a priority to change that! After having mark on to talk turkeys this past spring, we knew we had to have him back on to discuss his favorite pastime. We hope you enjoy this one as much as Matt T enjoyed recording it with Mark!
