Jermaine Hodge is the RMEF 2019 World Elk Calling Championships Men’s Division winner - we interview him on all things public land elk calling.

What started as an idea, quickly escalated to a reality this weekend.  20 humble, hungry and positive elk hunters made their way to Spokane Valley, WA for 3 days for the inaugural ElkShape Camp.  I was joined by some of the most amazing humans as subject matter experts to help this camp knock the socks off of the attendees.  Thank you doesn't quite cut the mustard. This camp was supposed to impact and elevate everyone's game, but ultimately it made me understand the importance of encouragement, humility, and positivity.  So thank you all for making me a better version of...

Episdoe 53 is all about testing yourself and seeking out new challenges.  We bring on the perfect guest once again, a guy who is truly blue collar, family man, and gets after it when it comes to public land elk hunting.  Ryan is not a famous hunter, but he's a guy that has a strong work ethic and chases bugles each fall as hunting elk is his number one passion.

We talk about his awesome season, the tactics he uses when hunting a completely new area, working around massive hunting pressure and getting it done on public ground.  We cover topics...

Jones on today's show.  Larry is a member of the bowhunting hall of fame, a pioneer when it comes to elk calling and hunting.  He's probably forgot more than I will ever know about hunting elk, so you're in for a great episode. I met Larry in 2008, we hunted two seasons in a row and he taught me a lot.  We get a chance to go over how he got started into the elk call business, the early days of...
