On today's. episode of The Landing I sat down with a pretty cool dude from PA who cuts timber out here in Oregon. We talk about everything from hunting, shooting long range, how elk don't actually exist and what Mike Ikes to eat after work. Get comfortable and buckle in for four hours of fun.

Today's. episode is a dude from Indiana named Willis Collier. Willis has been in the industry his entire life and specializes in contract cutting now. It took a while to get this one on the schedule because this guy works a ton, but I think it was worth the wait.

If you enjoyed this episode, leave a comment below or shoot me a message. I would love to start interviewing more folks from outside the PNW just to see how different the industry is all around the country, but if folks don't want to listen its not something I will pursue as hard.
