Discussions around Matt's love of waterfowl hunting, photography and Jesus.

Discussions about Christian persecution in Pakistan, shooting ducks in the timber and what it really means to let go of religion and follow Jesus.

Cole and I discuss our affliction of catching redfish on the fly, how God’s mercy has impacted his life and role of provider for his wife and how his content creation company, Going Native was formed as well as some of the future projects.

Mitch McLaughlin is an educator in Altus, OK. He contacted me 2 years ago about using our men's 8 week bible study for his men's group BUC or Brothers Under Christ. Needless to say I was floored since no one had really paid much attention to our efforts to create a video study plan that made it easy for someone to lead a men's small group. I stayed in touch with Mitch and we became good friends very fast. We made a trip to Oklahoma to hunt with Mitch and his family and friends and then had Mitch down to Mississippi to show him how we do it in the timber. While in Oklahoma we filmed Mitch's episode of Project Identity which will be dropping within the next few days. In this episode of the podcast we talk about both hunts and his episode as well as a couple of other things. Thanks for listening!

I have been trying to grab some time to have todays guest on the podcast for several months now. His company makes one of the most important pieces of gear that any hunter uses… your choke tubes. You guys know we have been shooting JEBS chokes for some time now, we love their consistency and the peace of mind that we have knowing that, when the moment of truth comes and its time to pull the trigger, we absolutely know where our shot string is going… we may still miss, but we know that our gear is functioning exactly as it’s supposed to and we know what our patterns are doing at different ranges and weather conditions. Trey Sears of JEBS chokes is of course who I am talking about. We had a great conversation about how JEBS got started, what makes a good choke “good”, the importance of patterning your shotgun and knowing where your shot string is going and we even tell some hunting stories as well. As much as we love their chokes, we love the people at JEBS even more

You know, we talk a lot about Tanglefree’s products, their durability and

functionality and quality and we should… they make the best waterfowl

products on the market today, hands down. But look, we want to do business

with people we know and like and trust and I can tell you that the folks at

Tanglefree are some of the finest people we have had the chance to meet and

work with and that company culture starts with our guest today, Cory

Foskett. I am so excited to finally have Cory on to talk with you guys and

he is also super stoked to talk to all of you. We talk about Cory’s

background growing up in CA on his grandparent’s cattle ranch,

surprisingly, Cory was not a duck hunter, and we discuss when he finally

came to his senses and started feathers instead of antlers. We discuss TF’s

unique approach to relationship-intentional business and company culture,

we talk about how they approach new products and the incredible amount of

time they spend in research and development to ensure that if a product

fails, it will fail in their hands and not yours. We talk about their

unwavering commitment to customer service and customer satisfaction. One

thing that was very clear in my discussions with Cory is that they will

move heaven and earth to make you a customer for life. We also talked a lot

about their approach to authentic content and product representation

because they know that waterfowlers have their bs detectors on 24/7 and

they owe you the most honest experience possible when shopping through

their product selection. I had a great discussion with Cory, it was

certainly worth the wait and we are just so thankful and blessed to have

the relationship with have with the entire TF crew

Spence Halford is the founder and owner of Rolling Thunder Game Calls. We

have a very interesting conversation about his faith, his company, his

calls and finally his view on where the sport is heading. Spence is one of

those guys that you feel like, after just meeting him, you’ve known him all

your life. We go into details about the “re-emergence” of the cut down call

and the subtle difference between the several different models Spence

produces.

My guest today has been on the podcast before and I just love our

conversations because of the heart he has for the heritage and history of

our sport. Dustin Roddy of Cache River Farms and I talk about the progress

he has made over the summer on several of his farms, we talk about moist

soil management and we talk about how to identify and control one of the

most invasive pests known to farmers and duck club managers….
