Discover how a visionary young man
decided from an early age
that his career would not be restricted
by the established expectations of a society.
Know how this decision
led to the creation of The Sporting Life Notebook;
the Georgia-based organization continuously engaging in
a rich collection of sporting initiatives;
all with the hopes of creating curiosity
amongst unexplored, nontraditional markets
and welcoming them to the outdoors.
Understand how today,
these newly arrived enthusiasts
believe had it not been for The Sporting Life Notebooks’ commitment
to expose them to the invaluable experiences
found in a sporting life,
they may have never lived the outdoor activities
they are devotedly engaging in today.
By doing so, The Sporting Life Notebook
is bringing new generations & participants to the industry.
In turn, this new blood is enjoying activities
they never knew possible,
while bringing in fresh perspectives;
perspectives ensuring our sporting traditions,
wildlife, & habitat will be here tomorrow.
And in the end,
The Sporting Life Notebook’s belief
of never allowing deeply rooted stereotypes
to dictate what one will become or enjoy,
is inspiring thousands to learn more about & be part of,
our outdoor community;
a community whose richness will always be directly linked
to the diversity found in its members,
ideas, & opinions.

TSLNREAD EP194 | "Lightning in a Bottle" with Paul Cook of Alder Fork English Setters
“…the “art” of breeding better bird dogs… it’s like lightning in a bottle - complex and quick in your hands yet you’ll never see the beginning or the end… because it’s never quite finished. And it comes complete with every setback that accompanies life… as well as moments of pure joy and promise such as the one captured in the photo…” -Paul Cook of @alderforkenglishsetters

Customer Reviews
Has definitely improved
I have always liked the format of the podcast. The on site interviews are entertaining and informative. As mentioned in many other reviews, the early audio needed help. I usually listen to podcasts while I work. For the longest time I couldn’t hear the episodes. Over the last few months, the audio has definitely gotten better. I can hear the episodes enough to enjoy them.
Episode 170
Thank you for the thoughtful and eloquent thoughts on episode 170. Love the deep dive into purpose and why we pursue the passions we pursue, and maintain the relationships we have with people and dogs alike.
Great podcast
Durrell is just a real guy living with and learning from his dogs. For a guy like me who is training his first dog with aspirations of building his own kennel of retrievers (not even pointers) I learn something from EVERY podcast. His is must listening for me.
