How to Fight for Hunting
Show Notes:
As someone with 40 years of hunting experience, I’ve seen the ebbs and flows of the anti-hunt movement. Today, it’s growing year after year. So, I sat down this week to talk a little about land management, hunting strategy, but most importantly: Howl for Wildlife. Howl for Wildlife is a new organization dedicated to hunting activism. Activism can be a dirty word for many hunters, but it’s time for us to stand up for our right to hunt.
I talked a bit about my background in hunting, and how I became a hunting guide. I went on to discuss my hunting and scouting strategy. My strategy depends on the animal I’m hunting, of course, so I started with mule deer. We talked a bit about what kind of habitat keeps does around and what we should be looking for as hunters. We also swapped some stories about our experiences hunting, guiding, and more.
After that, we got into the meat of the episode: hunting activism. “Activism” isn’t a word usually associated with our side, but it’s about time that hunters start being active. The anti-hunt movement is only growing, and it’s up to us to fight that. We talked a bit about the anti-hunt movement, and how that type of disinformation can impact policy change.
That led me into my organization, Howl for Wildlife. The organization was founded to work for hunters, and we’ve already had some success. I talked a bit about the story of Howl for Wildlife, and what we are doing for hunters today. We had a great conversation about conservation, activism, and uniting as hunters.
What's’ Inside:
- Tips and tricks for reading the land.
- How anti-hunting legislation spreads across the nation.
- The importance of unity as hunters.
- How the mainstream media paints hunters as the bad guys.
- How you can help fight for hunting rights.

Short Description:
This week on the podcast, we talked about hunting rights and the importance of hunting activism. That’s typically not a word associated with our side of things, but it’s critical that we come together as hunters and stand up for what’s right. Aside from that, we had a great conversation about hunting strategy and reading land.
