Welcome to another episode of The Fair Chase Podcast! Today, Joe and I are diving deep into his upcoming grizzly hunt in Alaska, now less than two months away. As summer heats up, the excitement is building for this unique adventure.

Joe shares all the details about his return to a favorite Alaskan hunting ground, a place he considers his top spot with no close second. This is a dream hunt for Joe (and most other hunters!). We're talking about the pressure, the anticipation, and the unique challenges of hunting these incredible animals.

In this episode, we also cover:

- Essential gear and calibers

- The fascinating personalities of bears compared to other big game, and how their upbringing shapes their hunting behaviors.

- Why bear hunting has become Joe's favorite pursuit

- The importance of staying hunt-ready and avoiding that "winter fat" to tackle demanding backcountry hunts.
