Sportsmen's Empire - Western Big Game Hunting

The excitement on the last day was a great send away. But it was intense until we were able to get the dog back on the ground. Climbing trees is not something we deal with on a regular basis, but it can happen to anyone. How do you deal with those situations? This episode talks about several over the last three decades of hunting.

In this episode Steve visits with Tom Hopkins of Marshall, Texas.Tom owned, trained and handled what was perhaps the most famous Treeing Walker Coonhound in the history of coon hunting, the immortal House’s Lipper.

Lipper distinguished himself in competition and in the breeding pen by winning major championships and by producing more that 5000 pups, not including those that were born through frozen semen breeding.   Lipper’s record in that regard is most likely never to be broken.

Lipper was making news before he was a year old and won the prestigious PCA National Championship, the prize package of which included a pickup truck, dog box and other related awards at less than two years of age.  He is the youngest Dual Grand Champion (Nite Hunt and Bench Show) on record.

Steve, in this episode, persuades Tom to share the Lipper story from the first coon he treed at about seven months old to discussions about several notable Lipper offspring including House’s Lawyer, Adios Lightning, House’s Clint and House’s Cash.  If you are coonhound history buff this is the episode for you.   “Dog talk at its finest, Walker-style.”

In today's episode, Jacob will dive into part 2 of the study that was recently shared by James Yates with Western Hunter Magazine. James partnered with Easton, Precision Cut and Black Ovis, to answer some of the lingering questions that he had as it relates to arrow flight and the many variables that can effect that flight (mechanical broadheads, fixed blade broadheads, 3 fletched arrows, 4 fletched arrows, etc.). As we all get ready for the fall hunting season, this data could prove to be helpful in determining some of your set up decisions. In addition to this topic, Jacob shares an update on his own season prep. Thanks for listening and enjoy!

In this episode, Adam Berkelmans and Justin Townsend join Nick on the show to discuss the intricacies of sausage making, focusing on the newly released book 'The Art of Venison Sausage Making.' They explore the science behind sausage making, essential tips for novices, and the social aspects of the craft. The conversation also delves into various types of sausages, the importance of casings, and the joy of creating unique flavors. The hosts emphasize that sausage making is not only a culinary skill but also a fun and engaging activity that can be enjoyed with friends and family.

Sausage making is both an art and a science, requiring attention to detail and a willingness to learn. One of the most important aspects is keeping all ingredients cold throughout the process to ensure a quality product. For beginners, using pre-made seasonings can simplify the experience and lead to more consistent results. Beyond the technical side, sausage making can also be a social and enjoyable event—perfect for gatherings or "sausage parties" where friends and family come together to learn and create. Experimenting with different flavors, ingredients, and techniques adds a personal touch, while understanding the role and types of casings is crucial for success. The process does demand time and patience, but it's rewarding. For those just getting started, the referenced book serves as an excellent introduction to the craft of sausage making.

Within the world of purebred coonhounds there exists seven recognized breeds, each with a national association that affiliates with the major coonhound registry, United Kennel Club.  These associations exist not only to steer the future of the individual breeds within the registry, but also as a fraternity, or sorority as the case may be, of individuals devoted to the breed.  None is more tightknit than the American Black and Tan Coonhound Association, 

Our guest in this episode, Matt Wachter of Gardendale, Ala., is a young man that chose the Black and Tan Breed early on in his coon hunting career and has benefited greatly from the mentors he has gained through his choice of breeds.   One such mentor and personal friend is the late Doug Moore of Mt. Olive, Alabama.Moore recently passed at the age of 82.The dog talk at its finest in this episode is full of stories of hunting with Moore and other stalwarts of the Black and Tan breed of Wachter’s experience. 

Although fanciers of Black and Tans will no doubt appreciate this episode most, the stories, accounts and benefits of a coon hunter’s life within the confines of a given breed should serve to influence others to choose a similar path.
