Videos and podcasts

One of the most popular episodes of Wingshooting USA! Scott Carlson of Carlson’s Chokes takes us on a tour of his organic wheat fields in Western Kansas … carrying shotguns, of course. The benefits of “dirty farming” are evident in the number of birds harbored by weedy edges, shelterbelts, and thick swales. A Vizsla and shorthair share the bird-finding chores to everyone’s delight.

He probably doesn't need an introduction. Steven Rinella is the host of the long-running television show MeatEater and top-ranked MeatEater podcast. And he's the cover story in a recent magazine article I wrote. In listening to my interviews, I thought you might enjoy learning what I learned about the man, the brand, the evolution of all things MeatEater, and where his inspirations come from (hint: not where you think). You won't find this frank, wide-ranging discussion anywhere else, even in the magazine article I wrote. It was never meant to be a podcast, so there's a lot more me-talk than you'd get in a regular episode. Enjoy. You can listen to all the podcasts here.

Welcome. more access = more hunters = more conservation.

Why this website? Find bird hunting spots ... sounds easy, but it's more complicated than the statement above, with a lot of moving parts. But it's also absolutely true. Lack of accessible land is the biggest reason many of us quit hunting or never start in the first place. My hope is this website will help - because without hunters, there is virtually no conservation.

But that's not all ... there's the country's most widely-distributed upland hunting TV show, a podcast, educational video library, and weekly newsletter full of fun and information (sign up below).
