Sportsmen's Empire - Whitetail Hunting

In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Chris Hamm, Co-Owner of HHA Sports. Chris takes us on a journey through his recent hunting season, sharing valuable lessons learned and experiences in the great outdoors.

We kick things off by delving into the importance of seizing opportunities and taking decisive action. Chris emphasizes that in the realm of hunting and life, there's no room for neutral action. Reflecting on these experiences, he highlights the significance of reflection as a tool for personal growth and moving forward.

Our conversation shifts to the meaningful initiatives by HHA USA, providing a safe haven for veterans and first responders to connect and find support. Chris passionately discusses how archery has the transformative power to change lives and unite communities. He paints a promising picture of the future of archery, citing innovative projects and a growing interest in the sport.

We take a moment to savor the flavors of the outdoors as Chris shares a mouth-watering recipe for carne asada venison tacos, made from backstraps. From culinary delights, we transition to the technological advancements in archery, with Chris praising the game-changing HHA RYZ sight. This piece of equipment instills confidence and accuracy in various shooting scenarios.

Missed shots are reframed as valuable learning experiences and opportunities for growth in our conversation. Chris encourages archers to practice all different shot situations to foster familiarity with equipment and honing shooting skills. 

Wrapping up, Chris concludes with a call to stay safe, embrace the joys of the outdoors, and anticipate exciting developments in the world of archery.

On today’s show with GunBroker.com, we’re at SHOT Show joined by Donald Trump Jr. and Mike Schoby of Field Ethos and Brett Vorhees from Taurus. We open up with Brett Vorhees talking about getting bit by the African Safari hunting bug. Logan asks the group what’s the best advice for someone's first time safari hunt. The group consensus was to not take a checklist with you for what game you want to chase. The reasoning behind this is because when you get there you may be surprised at some of the game you would like to go after! Make sure to listen in to this episode Presented by GunBroker.com to hear all about African Safari hunting! Next up, Logan asks Brett what exciting items Taurus has coming to the hunting world. Brett’s first thought was the Taurus Expedition rifle, which is a new Taurus bolt action hunting rifle. He also talks about their Raging Hunter revolver which goes all the way up to a .500 Magnum! Mike Schoby brags about the quality production at Taurus and how their state of the art facility was a surprise for him when he first visited! Trump Jr. tells all about how Brett Vorhees is an actual gun guy. There’s a ton of firearm company CEO’s who aren’t gun enthusiasts, or hunting enthusiasts, so it was a breath of fresh air when Brett gave Field Ethos the green light to give a no holds barred review of Taurus. Logan asks about Field Ethos Magazine and how it got started. Donald Trump Jr. said that Field Ethos was born out of a need to break the mold of outdoor media. With a lack of real conversations being had about hunting, they saw a void that needed to be filled. Mike Schoby says that one of the best things about Field Ethos is their honesty, even some companies that are paying Field Ethos as part of their partnership. Mike believes that it’s one of the most important parts of what makes Field Ethos stand out in today’s world of outdoor media. Closing out, Logan asks a tough question – if you could own one gun, what gun would it be? With an almost impossible question to answer for the crew, he then delves into what firearms everyone learned to shoot. The crew talks about their favorite guns, grail guns, and guns that they would love to get their hands on if they could. Tune in to the full episode to hear all about it!

It's no secret that Wisconsin has a rich history of deer hunting. Images of flannel and orange clad hunters standing around a buck pole with thick northern forest in the background still come to mind when anyone says they're headed to deer camp. Unfortunately, that image is becoming less and less of a reality in recent years as the North woods of Wisconsin simply aren't what they once were for deer hunting. So much, in fact, that the state legislation has recently proposed to prohibit the harvest of does in the Northern Forest Region. 

This probably isn't the first time you've heard about this since the bill was proposed, but you probably don't have all the information about it either. If that's the case, you're in the right place as this week, Pierce sits down with outdoor writer and author, Paul Annear to discuss the complexities of deer management in Wisconsin and the context surrounding this recently proposed bill. Paul has been writing for publications like Legendary Whitetails, Midwest Whitetail, Deer & Deer Hunting, and countless others since 2014, and is one of the most well-rounded and knowledgeable voices in the Whitetail space. The guys cover what things led to so much decline in the northern deer herd, the constraints the DNR must operate within due to the state's political landscape, opposite struggles in the Southern half of the state, and much more. 

If one thing is certain, it's that Wisconsin is an unbelievably unique and difficult state to manage deer in, and the betterment of deer management rests on the shoulders of outdoorsmen and women making their voices heard to provide input on best practices. Go follow along with Paul's awesome writing @pannear on Instagram or by searching "Paul Annear" to find more of his articles!

We hit something a little different this week on the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast, sandhill crane hunting! John's good buddy Charles just returned from a bucket list hunt and one that John was quite jealous of. Sandhill cranes are present in large numbers in western Oklahoma and Texas, and as Charles will discuss in this episode, make for a fun and engaging hunt. The "ribeye of the sky" are not as easy as you might think to hunt, and possess a keen eye for anything out of the ordinary.

Charles and his buddies were able to hunt cranes and geese on this trip, which makes for a great comparison of the two species and helps people relate to something they may be a little more familiar with. Charles talks about the strategy they used, the decoy set ups, the size shells, and the hides the group used to put a 14 man limit on the ground one day, and a stack of geese the next. If a crane hunt isn't already on your list, it definitely will be after this episode!
