  • What an enjoyable 1+ hours it was chatting to Mark

    I recently recorded a podcast with Mark (coming out very soon). We hit it off immediately and Mark's direct, yet educated questions about me and my book really challenged me to consider layers within my writing/hunting journey that I didn't fully consider. He is a great host and this podcast is exactly what it claims, like sitting around the campfire sharing stories and speaking truths about hunting and life.

  • Well worth a listen.

    This podcast may be aimed to help less experienced hunters, but even as someone who has been hunting since I was old enough to throw a stone - I have picked up lots of handy tips and tricks. Invaluable resource here for all hunters - get into it!
