How to Interpret Hunting Regulations – Chad RykerThis week I talk about hunting regulations, how to use them, and why are they important.  Every state has a different regulation, and each state has wildly different rules.  Understanding what you should look at and what you need to be aware of in a regulation can increase your odds of success in a state.  It can increase your aware of new rules that can impact your application or hunt.  Regulations offer so much information to help you with tour hunt.  Keep in mind, all of the information in a regulation is valuable and important I cover what I look for up front to help me with application to draw a tag or a hunt after I draw a tag.  OUT OF STATE HUNTERInstagram - @outofstatehunterALLTERRA ARMSWebsite - https://allterraarms.comInstagram - @allterraarmsMARSUPIAL GEARWebsite - https://www.marsupialgear.com/Instagram - @marsupialgearKODIAK CANVASWebsite - https://www.kodiakcanvas.comInstagram - @kodiakcanvas

What The Heck Happened With The Idaho OTC System.  This is my experience with the Idaho OTC system and it wasn't great.  I spent over 8 hours waiting on the website so I could try to get a tag.  On this podcast I share my thoughts on the current system and what could be done to change it.  

This week I talk with Brady Miller about the Idaho over the counter (OTC) tag system.  Brady is well versed in the process, and he answers my questions as well as some questions from Instagramers.  He breaks it down and makes it easy to understand.  I think we hit most of the questions out there.   Enjoy the show!
