| Episode 271 with Ed Morris and Mark Nethery ; The Template | 01 Feb 2022 | 01:37:43 | |
I sat down with Ed Morris and Mark Nethery, two gentlemen who have held office with The League of Kentucky Sportsmen. The League has been around since 1935 and advocating for the sportsmen and women in the fine state of Kentucky. Walking the halls of the state legislature with one goal, regardless of the subset in the outdoors to fight, weigh in, show our power as a voting block and insure that decisions are based in sound management. With the amount of years and lessons learned the value in experience is worth its weight in gold, especially with the current state of affairs and opposition we face. Enjoy the episode!

| Episode 266 Divide and Conquer part 2 with Jim Huntsman and Joe Giglia | 10 Jan 2022 | 01:51:45 | |
This episode is a follow up to episode 264 Divide and Conquer, with Jim Huntsman and Joe Giglia. We recieved an email from listener Ed Morris out of Kentucky. The email had some great talking points and what I would consider a template of action more of us need to follow, organize and promote, a group called the League of Ky Sportsmen, founded in 1935 by concerned sportsmen (www.kentuckysportsmen.com . When the three of us get to talking there is plenty of rabbit holes, nonetheless we felt addressing this on air was the best way to serve the efforts in Kentucky and our passion. Enjoy the episode!

We also talk breifly about elk and what is available on Chris's WWW. Enjoy the episode. To subscribe to Roe Hunting Resources: https://www.roehuntingresources.com/Sign-up
