    • Hunt Detail - Out Of State Hunt Masterclass Pt.3

      The benefit of creating a specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-bound hunt objective is a better overall hunt plan and hunt systems. In today's episode, Jacob will get specific about how your hunt plan should be mapped out on both your hunt map app of choice, but also on a corresponding spreadsheet with plan A, B, C, D, etc. Doing so will help ensure that despite in the field setbacks (crowded trailheads, lack of sign, bad weather, road closures, etc,), you will be able to remain engaged and excited as there will be multiples of "theories" to work in the field as you move from one plan to the next. As the quote by Alan Lakein goes, "Failing to plan is planning to fail". Let's get planning! Enjoy and thanks for listening.

        • Hound Dog Network - Gone to the Dogs: Lifetime of Memories

          In this episode Steve sits down with his best buddies Nubbin Moore to talk about, among several life-changing subjects, Nubbin’s recent election to honored lifetime membership status with the American Black and Tan Coonhound Association. The ABTCHA memberships votes one member into the exclusive group each year with the award presented the following year at Black and Tan Days. Nubbin questions his worthiness while Steve sets the record straight. Nubbin enjoys fishing as well as coon hunting and the two discuss Moore’s recent trips and successes. The conversation moves to the question, when does a coon hunter recognize it’s time to retire? Neither, by their own admission, has reached that point in the game but do discuss the possibility. Black and Tan fanciers will enjoy Nubbin’s reflections on two of his most famous Black and Tans, Hank and Zack. Each were successful on the biggest stages in coon hunting during their primes including Hank’s win overall at the 25th anniversary Autumn Oaks. When does a hunter realize he’s too old to start another pup is a question the pair wrestle with in this laid back, easy-listening podcast. The talk is as smooth as Tennessee whiskey. Have a virtual “sip” and enjoy.
