We don’t typically get on our soap box but this week it seems something needs to be said for the way hunters treat one another. We have a serious issue in the hunting community that stems from jealousy and ignorance when it comes to our support of other hunters and it’s time we make a change. There aren’t enough of us left to be spending our time tearing each other down. We need to come together and protect our rights and privileges. Let’s do better together.

That question is: how do they decide what the hunting limits will be per species for your state? We talk about how they come up with the limits and who has a say. We also talk about how things could be done differently. Thanks so much for listening and be sure to subscribe and review!

This week we wanted to touch on something that’s been extremely hard to navigate for a lot of waterfowl hunters across the country: bird transporting. When you go hunting, whether in your own state or while on a trip to a different state or even Canada, there are specific laws about how to transport your birds legally. We discuss whether or not the current laws are actually promoting wanton waste. We also test Carter and Cal’s basic knowledge and talk about some other relevant hunting situations.

This week we’re discussing the current state of the NFL which seems to be as competitive as ever. We talk about the runway a young quarterback actually needs to get themselves acclimated to the pace of play and style of the NFL and if we’re cutting these guys off too early? With examples like Darnold and Baker it’s hard to think we don’t overreact to a players development. We also talk Caleb Williams, Jaden Daniels and some other young g guys that have impressed.
