    Why are you so silent on the position of public land sales? Do you agree with the selling of the public property? This would be a good time to let us know where you stand.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Texas Coast Wetlands: Habitat, Migration & Conservation in Action (Ep 787)
Q: Where does the funding for the Texas Coastal Wetlands Project come from, and how does it work with private landowners?
Funding comes from a combination of sources including the Dr. Edward Sally Futch Charitable Foundation and the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, along with other partners such as NAWCA and private landowner contributions. This mix enables rapid project startup and the ability to implement management practices on multiple private properties, with payments of about $20 per acre to help offset costs and encourage participation.
Benelli & the Modern Waterfowl Gun: Innovation, Performance & DU Partnership
Q: What distinguishes each Benelli line (Montefeltro, Ethos, Super Black Eagle III) for a DU audience member considering an upgrade?
Choose based on your hunting and style: Montefeltro for a versatile wood-look option, Ethos for high-end upland styling, and Super Black Eagle III for a do-anything waterfowl gun, with the shim kit allowing precise customization for optimal fit.
Benelli & the Modern Waterfowl Gun: Innovation, Performance & DU Partnership
Q: What is one piece of advice you'd give somebody looking to upgrade their shotgun going into the new season?
Get to a Try Me shoot, try all the brands, understand how the shim kit works, and pattern your shotgun to match your eye and shoulder alignment, so you can choose the gun that truly fits you.
RELOADED EP230 - Waterfowl Harvest Management Series, Part 13: Remembering The Point System
Q: What were the primary objectives behind the Point system?
The two main goals were to direct harvest pressure toward birds that could withstand it (and protect those that couldn't) and to reduce bag limit violations by removing the need to identify ducks in flight, letting hunters identify birds after retrieval.
Meet Wade Shoemaker: A New Voice on the DU Podcast (Ep 785)
Q: Who are you and where do you come from?
Wade shares that he lives in North Louisiana, grew up hunting with his dad near Ruston, and built a lifelong passion for waterfowl, family traditions, and a broad perspective from traveling and hunting across the continent.
