School of September with Dirk "The Bugler" Durham

Wednesday, September 4, 2024 • Duration 02:07:57

Well here we are! The final School of September episode of 2024!

One of my favorite people, also a listener favorite, we close out this SOS season with none other than Dirk Durham. A man who needs little introduction, a dude that every hunter can learn from, and a guy I'm proud to call a friend.

In this episode, Dirk and I dive into some "out-of-the-box" type calling techniques that can make a big difference on uncooperative bulls and bulls that get hung up out of range. Don't miss this episode! May your arrows hit their mark, good luck this September friends!

117. Defining Trophy Hunting with Ike Eastman

Tuesday, July 19, 2022 • Duration 01:04:26

A trip to Wyoming is always worth it, but it was even more so this time because I got to meet the entire Eastman's Hunting Journals team to include Ike Eastman, President of the company!

Ike and I sit down to chat about perceptions surrounding trophy hunting. We discuss how the term is portrayed negatively by the anti-hunting folks, how some hunters may perceive it, and what truly defines a trophy hunter. We discuss the benefits of taking mature animals and the importance of not disparaging those who choose not to. Ike is extremely insightful and a fantastic resource on this topic. The epitome of true sportsmen can be found in all corners of Eastman's, and I'm proud to call them all friends!

116. In Defense of The Pittman-Robertson Act with Brian Brooks

Tuesday, July 12, 2022 • Duration 01:36:13

One of the most profoundly successful Federal funding programs in our history is The Pittman-Robertson Act of 1937. For 85 years, this legislation has funded wildlife conservation efforts to the tune of over eleven billion dollars. It has fueled projects such as habitat restoration, wildlife science projects, public access, species rehabilitation, hunter education, gun ranges, and much more. It has also been a strong badge of honor to sportsmen and women, a weighted fist in the fight against the anti-hunting movement, and an effective tool to improve the overall management of our wildlife and the wild places they thrive in.

Now, in a surprising twist, it is under attack by Republican legislatures under a false premise that it is an infringement to gun owners. As a right of center hunter, I'm embarrassed by this legislation. As a 2A advocate, I'm ashamed of the misuse of what I consider our most critical Constitutional Amendment. And as an American, I'm confused as to why our elected officials would meddle in such a wonderful conservation tool given the current issues Americans face that should be prioritized.

In this episode, Brian Brooks, Executive Director of the Idaho Wildlife Federation, joins me to break down the details of this proposed legislation, explain why it's misplaced, and offer some action items us sportsmen and women can do to combat it. The time is now, we cannot allow the people we have trusted in government office, deprive us and our wildlife of the most responsible use of tax dollars any collective group has ever contributed. Stop this bill!!
