In this episode, experienced saddle hunter Josh Hilliard of Tethrd joins Nick and the Doctor, who are also saddle hunters, to talk about everything from equipment to the pros and cons of this approach. They share some of their experiences and discuss resources available to prospective saddle hunters to help you get started.

    Even a Grizzly Couldn't Stop Amber Kornak's Love for Wildlife Conservation

    Finding yourself in a tussle with a grizzly bear isn’t something anyone imagines for themselves and even with top training on how to deal with that situation, the outcome is typically not good. That’s exactly the position Amber Kornak found herself in just as her career with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service was getting started, but her quick thinking and determination helped her survive the incident, which she says made her resolve to continue her career in wildlife conservation even stronger. She shares her story with Nick in The Doctor in this episode, and explains why she volunteers for NDA despite her already busy work schedule. She tells the story of how her childhood growing up in Michigan hunting with her dad eventually led to her love of conservation and wanting to make it her career. She also explains why despite her own encounter, she doesn’t think anyone should be afraid to hunt in grizzly country.   See NDA’s List of Sponsor and Partner Companies   Important Links Follow Nick Pinizzotto on Instagram Follow Mike Groman on Instagram Music by Bensound   Subscribe to the Podcast on: Apple Podcasts Google Podcasts Spotify iHeartRadio Stitcher   About the National Deer Association The National Deer Association (NDA) is a non-profit deer conservation group that works to ensure the future of wild deer, wildlife habitat and hunting.

    From Vegetarian to Hunting Mentor With NDA's Elizabeth Kligge

    Research shows that if you don’t grow up in a family of hunters or you’re not close to someone who does, chances are you won't become a hunter yourself. It can be an even bigger barrier if many around you are opposed to hunting and living a vegetarian lifestyle. NDA’s Pennsylvania Field to Fork Coordinator, Elizabeth Kligge, not only overcame those obstacles, she developed a love for hunting and with it a strong desire to teach others who’ve always wanted to try it but never had the chance. In this episode, Elizabeth shares her story with Nick and The Doctor, including how partaking in roadkill reinvigorated her willingness to eat meat! In addition to the interview, Elizabeth also wrote this recent article for NDA detailing her journey:  How I Went from Vegetarian to Deer Hunter.    Episode Sponsor: First Lite   Important Links Follow Elizabeth Kligge on Instagram Follow Nick Pinizzotto on Instagram Follow Mike Groman on Instagram Music by Bensound   Subscribe to the Podcast on: Apple Podcasts Google Podcasts Spotify iHeartRadio Stitcher   About the National Deer Association The National Deer Association (NDA) is a non-profit deer conservation group that works to ensure the future of wild deer, wildlife habitat and hunting.

    Antler Research with Brian Peterson of the University of Nebraska-Kearny

    Just about everyone is fascinated with antlers, even those who don’t hunt deer. Not only are they cool to look at and get excited about as a hunter, but a ton can be learned from them even when they’ve been dropped to the ground by shedding bucks. In this episode, Nick and The Doctor are joined by Brian Peterson, Coordinator of the Master of Science Biology Online Program at the University of Nebraska-Kearney who talks about a number of antler-focused research projects he’s been involved with. The research seeks to answer questions about everything from hunter selection to how drought or other environmental factors impact antler growth. Brian is also a regular listener of the podcast and he offers his own B-Team story that’s sure to get a laugh.   Episode Sponsor: Mathews Archery   Important Links University of Nebraska-Kearney Biology Master’s Program Follow Nick Pinizzotto on Instagram Follow Mike Groman on Instagram Music by Bensound   Subscribe to the Podcast on: Apple Podcasts Google Podcasts Spotify iHeartRadio Stitcher   About the National Deer Association The National Deer Association (NDA) is a non-profit deer conservation group that works to ensure the future of wild deer, wildlife habitat and hunting.
