Another week, another installment of the School of September! With season only weeks away, this is not one you're going to want to miss.

Brian Barney and Dan Pickar, both of Eastmans Hunting Journals and both return guests to the show, join me to have a panel-like discussion and Q&A on September elk season. As two of the best bowhunters on the planet, these guys brought their A-game to the show. We discuss calling, spot and stalk, elk in different types of country, and answer a series of listener questions. Dan and Brian deliver a full blown throat punch of elk knowledge guaranteed to improve your chances of success this Fall! Enjoy!
