In this episode I sit down with return guest and friend Chad Sharp and talk about how he has turned his passion for whitetail hunting into a long term investment for his retirement.  We dive deep into how he turned a small investment in property into a long term viable retirement for his future along with getting great enjoyment out of learning the process of upgrading his properties to reach their full potential for great whitetail hunting.  Enjoy!

In this episode I get the opportunity to sit down with my oldest son Thad Tanner and talk about the amazing year he has had as a field producer for Mark Peterson and World Wide Trophy Adventures.  Thad tells stories from several hunts including countries like Tanzania, Croatia, Mexico, Argentina and British Columbia just to name a few.  To say I am a proud father and honestly quite jealous of the opportunities he has had at a young age would be an understatement.  As a boy Thad had a dream of getting into the Outdoor Industry. He took on chance on himself and worked hard to fulfill that dream. Now he gets to travel the world and gets paid to do it.  Thanks for listening.

I pulled my first bear tag and of course had to go with good friend and returning guest Marcus Garner.  Marcus has been on the podcast a couple times already and each time the conversation has been great! I sat down with Marcus, also his friend Brandon from OLE's Deer processing and Sawyer from 989 Outdoors for some great conversation talking about my bear hunt as well as all things hound hunting.  Thanks for listening in!

In this episode I sit down with Jeff Poet, Chad Stearns and Sam Humphrey from Jay's Sporting Goods and talk about the newly opened Jays Webber Wildlife Center.  We talk a brief history of Jays sporting goods and also how the center was created through a conversation with Mr. Webber and his vision to bring his world class display of trophy animals to the public.  The taxidermy and art work are truly incredible.  Enjoy the conversation.

In this episode I sit down with good friend Mike Krzyzanowski whom I refer to as the "woods and water whisperer".  Mike is a very accomplished fisherman and hunter.  You will always find him in the woods or on the water in every season of the year chasing giant whitetails,  elusive long beard turkeys,  trolling the great lakes for salmon, running the rivers for steelhead or jigging up giant walleye in the detroit river.  He does it all!  I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.
