Monday May 17, 2021
Corey and I jump back on the podcast to discuss some epic tag draw results. I thought I had drawn a Utah LE deer tag and his brother-in-law drew a once-in-a-lifetime Utah bison tag! Corey considers turning his LE Utah archery elk tag in. We sneak in a few minutes of new gear for 2021 before our SD card runs out of space! Let us know what you think of the episode!

This episode we talk about progress with my new versatile hunting dog, Chief, a Deutsch-Drahthaar. We also dive into new backpacking gear, including new boots from Crispi! I have found what I consider the best lightweight backpacking tripod. Jason got a pair of the new Crispi Attiva Mid and I got a new pair of Crispi Valdres. These are two of the best early season boots we've found. We also discuss optics and mounting binoculars to tripods. Enjoy!

Jaden Bales with Wyoming Wildlife Federation jumps on a call to discuss HB122: Reliable Funding for Hunting & Fishing Access. As a Wyoming resident, I take a special interest in this topic, however, I feel it can be applied to all western states struggling to gain public access due to private land or land-locked parcels of good hunting & fishing ground. Enjoy!

I sit down for a solo episode to lay out my 2021 application strategy, break down each western state, and give pro tips about fancy tags. This episode should help anyone get a general idea of what states will help with their goals for this year. Utah is the next major application deadline, coming up March 4. Good luck in the draws!
