This episode drops on the Monday before Thanksgiving. Steve extolls the joys of one of his favorite times of year as the episode opens. Thanksgiving could well be called the hunter’s holiday since so much hunting activity routinely takes place on and around the traditional holiday.

Fellow podcast content creator Clayton Stark’s post on social media forms the basis for reflections by many members of the hound hunting community as they recall special memories. Moreso than any other, Thanksgiving is a holiday for families; sumptuous meals, football games, recounts of family adventures combine to make the most, for some, enjoyable holiday of the year.

A phone call with Steve’s hunting buddy and frequent traveling companion Arnold “Nubbin” Moore rounds out the conversation as they discuss the upcoming annual trip to Arkansas and the White River National Wildlife Refuge. 

With this episode, Steve and Ella, as well as the crews at Double U Hunting Supply, Alpha Dog Nutrition and Zepp Predator Calls, send a collective “Happy Thanksgiving to one and all!”

Opening day of Michigan's rifle season is something that Nate and his son Henry have been enjoying for many years. Especially now that Henry has his own tag in his pocket and has been finding his own success the last 2 falls. This year Henry had a doe tag in his pocket and was able to fill that tag on a beautiful doe. Once again making memories to last a lifetime.
