Have you ever shot Match grade ammunition? Have you ever hunted with it? I certainly have taken Hornady Match Ammunition hog hunting on numerous occasions, but what about big game hunting with these popular factory loads? On this week's episode we [...]
It's become an annual tradition to tape a safari recap episode with my friend and PH Carl Van Zyl of John X Safaris while in his South African hunting camp. On this week's show we revisit the most recent hunting adventure [...]
Corey Knowlton has spent more time hunting internationally than just about any hunter on the planet. When you talk about hunting Africa specifically, that list becomes even narrower. A professional hunter/booking agent with over 70 safaris under his belt, he's seen [...]
I honestly didn't know much about Alex Whitt leading up to our conversation. I knew he was a Navy Veteran of the Iraqi War and that he had a protein bar company, that was about it. However, one of the coolest [...]
Vinny Ranucci knew the buck was a one in a lifetime specimen for Northern Idaho's rugged back country. The lifelong hunter, trapper and outdoorsman spent 3 years waiting for the right opportunity to put his tag on this deer. So, after [...]
Phew! So much to get into this week during Part 2 of our discussion with New Mexico Wildlife Federation Executive Director Jesse Deubel. While we won't see eye to eye on some issues, (like his stance on predator hunting contests on [...]
Colorado voted to reintroduce wolves. That ship has sailed, it's happening. So now what? The obvious answer is to focus on Colorado's Wolf Management Plan going forward. On this episode of Campfire Conversations I'm joined by Howl For Wildlife's Charles Whitwam [...]
Braden Sherron lives to hunt big fish below the surface in the Gulf of Mexico and he recently made headlines when he speared this giant 137 lb cubera snapper. We discuss the ins and outs of what it takes to be [...]
40 certainly hurts more than 30. However, between the rigors of hunting, the gym and still playing competitive sports, I've finally found something that helps keep the unwanted pleasures of aging at bay. I discovered cryotherapy about 18 months ago and [...]
You guys know I am a huge fan of SCI. Not only are they the title sponsor of the show, but they're also the most important voice/organization that we have when it comes to fighting for our rights through the sustainable [...]
The backlash from deer hunters in Grayson, Collin, Dallas and Rockwall counties was fast and furious once they learned Texas Parks and Wildlife's plan to add rifle seasons to the archery only deer counties. Lifelong Sherman resident and Attorney Brock Benson [...]

Every bowhunter has their preferred broadhead. Taking that into account, don't switch if you're getting great results with your current set up. However, if you've been left scratching your head or are interested in longtime outdoor writer Will Brantley's 2 year [...]
These conversations are always hard. However, being a humanitarian doesn't mean a country can simply open it's borders. The word "country" itself implies a government ruling over a geographic area defined by it's borders. So keeping that in mind, we take [...]
I've read the classics from Capstick and Ruark as hunting cape buffalo has long been romanticized by early big game hunters turned authors. To finally experience what they so eloquently describe on paper was a dream come true. A bucketlist hunt [...]

Captain Len Girard joins me from Corpus Christi Bay for a special coastal fishing report. If you're interested in trout or redfish, how the hurricanes have impacted the fishing or how the guide industry has been impacted by the pandemic then [...]
It seems like every southern hunter has either killed or knows a buddy who has killed a 350 or 400 lb feral hog, but most of us can see through the embellishment or lack of authenticity by looking at a photo [...]
Zach Owens has spent a decade chasing wolves in Idaho's back country. This past week that persistence paid off as Zach took his 2nd wolf to date. He recounts the events of that day (he and his father in law were [...]
There's not alot of 2x Olympic Gold Medalists hitting the slopes in they're favorite hunting jacket so when I saw David Wise catching huge air in First Lite Cipher, I knew he was one of us. Having dominated the Men's Halfpipe [...]
COVID 19's impact on the hunting community has been drastic, some positive (more folks are getting outdoors due to social distancing and having more free time) but by in large from a guiding/outfitting standpoint the impact has been extremely detrimental. I [...]
A longtime listener recently reached out to me claiming his hunting partner had lost 3 dogs after a recent hog hunt. The dogs were fine after the hunt but soon after began showing rabies like symptoms of foaming at the mouth, [...]
