I have been wanting to have a conversation about life, history and hunting with a leader of the Indigenous American community for a long time. Finally that day came and it was awesome to connect with a leader like Thosh. We had a great conversation which I think you will enjoy. Keep an eye out for some future collaboration that I am excited about!

This week I released my first elk hunt film on YouTube and I am very proud of it. I am using every available channel to get the word out so this week is just about that. I have also teamed up with CVA to give away a brand new Accura rifle of your choice. Just subscribe to my channel and CVA's, like and comment on the video to get entered.

A few other announcements in there as well, but if you're looking for an actual podcast, I suggest going back to last week's episode with Jim Shockey OR digging through the library for something else. As always THANK YOU for your support!

This week I had a chance to speak with one of my heroes, the legendary Jim Shockey. Jim is the real deal, he is a hunter, but he is so much more than that; a naturalist, conservationist, explorer, collector, author, and father, to name a few. Jim has lived life well, to the fullest, with something he teaches me called, Joie de Vie or "The Joy of Life," not wasting a day in pursuit of your passions and dreams. I hope to one day look back at my life and have it bear resemblance to the one that Jim has lived. He reminds us of what we can be at our best, not the evil backwoods rednecks we are often portrayed as in the mainstream media. I hope you enjoy this conversation!

ALSO be on the lookout for my New Mexico Muzzleloader Elk film release on MAY 31 2024 on YouTube! I will be teaming up with CVA to give away an Accura rifle of your choice, Just subscribe to my channel, subscribe to the CVA channel, and leave me a comment on the film and you will be in the hunt for an excellent new muzzleloader.

This week I am catching up with an old friend and getting acquainted with a new one. Koby Owens and Tyler Grethen are some of the hands, eyes, and minds behind the marketing magic over at Weatherby Inc.

Weatherby has been crushing it lately, releasing many new products including the new 307 line of rifles which I have had the pleasure of shooting recently. My new Range XP has been a shooter for me and I am super excited to announce a new partnership with Weatherby. In this one we catch up, talk new products and why I decided to make the switch to Weatherby!

Weatherby is a great American brand that I have loved for a long time and I am super excited to be working with them!

I had a chance to investigate the research of Dr. Hugh Ross and interview him years ago as a young producer at the Christian Broadcasting Network. That interview, unfortunately, never saw the light of day, but I was blessed to be able to talk with Dr. Ross again and it was a fascinating conversation. We talk about an alternative creation view that helped me tremendously in my faith journey as well as the fact that science and God are NOT at odds but that in fact, science proves the existence of God.
