    A Father's Passion Turns into a Lifetime Adventure

    Today I welcome Gene Schoen to the podcast. I met Gene when I lived in Michigan for work. I met him due to me and a buddy leasing some land to hunt on that bordered his. He invited us over for breakfast at his "off-grid" cabin and it was there that I learned there was a lot more to Gene than just hunting. Gene is a great hunter and fisherman but also an accomplished taxidermist. Did I mention a retired shop teacher? I enjoyed getting to know Gene over my time in Michigan and we had some great times hanging out in his taxidermy shop drinking some beers.

    Andrew Brown is my guest for this episode. I met Andy last year traveling with Ford. We are both long-time Ford employees but had never crossed paths until last year. Andy's story telling and experiences are second to none. As soon as I found out he was a hunter I knew I had to get him on. Andy is from Nebraska and had some great life experiences to talk about along with his hunting stories!

    Presley Lannon joined me on this episode and I believe you will truly love hearing from Presley. He is only 16 years of age but already an accomplished fisherman. Presley was everything I expected with his overall attitude and demeanor towards the outdoors. Anyone who wants to begin their bass fishing journey, you will find this conversation interesting. I believe we will be hearing about Presley in the world of professional bass fishing in the future!

    I encourage you to follow Presley on his following social media channels at:

    My guest for this episode is David Spaulding owner and operator of Harpeth River Kennels.  I have gotten to know Dave over the years through mutual friends at the Tennessee River/Kentucky Lake.  After listening you will probably do anything you can to find a farm to visit and go duck hunting with family, friends and dogs!  His passion is contagious when he speaks about his farm and dogs. Please give Harpeth River Kennels a follow on Instagram and Facebook. More information can be found here: https://www.harpethriverkennels.com/
