Today we're talking hunting and financial fitness.  We sit down and record with Jeff Bynum on best financial practices for hunters who want to hunt without being broke.  We go over the pitfalls of being house poor, credit cards, school loans, retirement planning and discipline.  This topic is extremely important and cannot be overlooked.  Money is just a tool, so you have to treat it just like your health and doing things that require daily discipline to achieve your longterm goals.  Here's some background info on Jeff: In the fall of 2008 I was introduced to an uncommon approach to...

We...

For our 50th episode we brought on a living legend!  I'm honored to have none other than Larry D. 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...
