We took a deep dive into the HAT Group, their mission and recommendations, looking at the facts and the science of what was proposed.

    Atmospheric River Hunt

    This episode is part one, in a two part series. I was on location, in West Central Idaho, on a late muzzleloader elk hunt with my oldest hunting partner, Sean Moore. Sean was on Season 1, Episode 9, 'Sleep Deprived'. We sat down in my pickup, out of the rain, and discussed this hunt up to this point, in the midst of a historic storm that seriously impacted the Pacific Northwest. With that in mind, I wanted to take a moment to pray for the victims of the 100 year floods currently inundating Washington State as this episode drops. We have friends, family and other hunters that have been flooded out of their homes and businesses; the totality of the destruction not yet known. If you can, send a donation or hit the Red Cross and give some blood, these folks are going to need it. Lastly, I hope you enjoy the podcast!

    A Holler in Appalachia

    This episode was recorded on the mountain in Virginia following our last evening hunt of the last full day of hunting for me. I sat down at a campfire with Jacob Porter and Andrew Fisher, aka "Squatch", to recap the week of hunting. We shared a bottle of Horse Soldier while the stories were told. This was a unique experience for a Western hunter to fly to the east coast to hunt in their mountains. This was a fun, episode to record...however, be advised we shared a microphone due to some equipment constraints, so there will be some minor audio quality issues as a result.

    Welcome Back!!

    This episode signifies the start of Season Two. Life took some interesting turns this past spring and summer, so the hiatus between Season One and Two was, unfortunately, extended. For this show, I gave a brief monolog on our past few months, and then I dive into a season recap with my son-in-law, who brought his six-year-old son hunting for the first time.

    Part One: Financial Planning for the Hunt

    Part one of a two part series: I sat down, in studio, with Larry Ashton, of Great Rates Brokerage, here in Idaho. As a broker and financial advisor, Larry and I discussed how to invest and save for the expense of hunting. With a split focus on younger hunters and how to invest for the expense of adventure hunts later in life, to how older hunters can save for application and license fees on an annual basis. Part two will feature a special guest with extensive knowledge of application strategies, point systems and how older hunters can obtain a tag every year. email: grtr8s2aol.com & larryashtonii@remax.net I hope you enjoy the podcast!
