The first drunken Shoot'n The Bull podcast, recorded in the wine cellar of the La Palmosa Ranch.       

The La Palmosa Ranch in Mexico is conservation success story. Ty sits down with Rene Hernandez who shares the history of the ranch along with how the desert bighorn sheep went from being extirpated to thriving in the area.

Check out our previous episode to hear how to hunt went.   

Heather Wise won the desert sheep hunt donated to the Wild Sheep Foundation by La Palmosa Ranch. WSF gave away the hunt at their life member breakfast in 2018. The kicker to this giveaway is you have to be present to win. Heather, being the trooper she is, made the breakfast still three sheets to the wind from the night before. When they drew her name she wasn't able to hide her condition and stumbled on stage to accept the prize. Listen how this hunt went!

Following our last podcast with Chris Parish on lead ammunition and the toll it is taking on our Peregrine Falcon, we wanted to learn more about non-lead ammunition and its performance.  We found Russell Kuhlman, a new hire at BHA.  Russell is currently the California and Nevada Chapter Coordinator.  He has quite an extensive background in firearms and ammunition and even has a degree in Wildlife Biology.  Prior to his newly acquired position with BHA, he was the California Non-lead Outreach Coordinator.  There he shot and tested the performance of various lead and non-lead ammunition into ballistic gel and jugs of water.  He shot everything from pistol, rifle, shotgun and even muzzleloader ammunition.  He was also a Skeet and Trap Coordinator at a local gun range.  In this episode Russell shares his research and spreads a wealth of knowledge on how different non-lead ammunition types perform.  It was shocking to find out just how well some of these no-lead ammo's perform at long ranges!  So if your curious on how this no-lead ammo performs and where you can get your hands on it, give this episode a listen!   Here is a website Russell created awhile back on how non-lead performs at long range (400 yards). http://huntingwithnonlead.org/bullets_long_range.html    Here is a Non-lead ammo company he refers to in the show https://cuttingedgebullets.com/ If people have any questions about topics discussed in this episode they can email Russell at: kuhlman.d.russell@gmail.com 

Chris Parish is a wildlife biologist and the Director of Global Conservation for The Peregrine Fund.  Chris is a mountain of a man, ex college football player and a redneck.  You could say he's our people!  In this episode we learn a lot about Chris.  From college football to currently earning his phd.  He comes to the podcast with a wealth of knowledge regarding Falconry, The Peregrine Fund and lead ammunition.  Chris isn't a pushy guy, nor is he trying to promote an agenda.  He simply brings facts and scientific information to the table for others to digest and form their own opinions.  We talk about the Peregrine Falcon and how our lead ammunition is taking a toll on them.  The research is astounding.  It was definitely an eye opener for us.  It makes us think a little deeper into the organic meat we harvest for ourselves and our families.  We ask that you listen to this episode with an open mind and form your own conclusions as we have.  As educational as this episode is, it definitely fits the Shoot'n The Bull mold.  Enjoy the scientific facts and raw entertainment!  Cheers!     If you'd like to contact Chris Parish regarding questions or further research you can reach him through The Peregrine Fund website via email.

At the 2018 BHA Rendezvous in Boise Idaho we met up with our First Lite crowd.  We leaped at the opportunity to grab a handful of beers and fire up the podcast equipment!  As Ty is busy working and putting on the event we figured what better co-host to fill in than Rex Wolferman!  In this episode Casey Hawkes of First Lite and Josh talked about their life changing injuries and the experiences they've endured throughout recovery.  Gregg Farrell, also a First Lite employee, talks about what its like working for First Lite and what the company is all about!  Listen and enjoy the entertainment as we sip a few brews and talk the good life!  Cheers!   First Lite Website

David Brinker is one busy guy.  He's the Marketing Leader for Sitka Gear and he's also a singer and a song writer.  Dave resides in Bozeman Montana and is a transplant from Oregon.  Since we're all from Oregon and cut or teeth hunting Roosevelt Elk and Blacktail Deer, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to talk about the hunting traditions we grew up on.  Dave is currently releasing his new country music album Made Out West on Friday April 20th 2018.  Listen in for how to get your hands on some of his music!  Dave's love for the outdoors and conservation is expressed through his music.  You can typically find him performing his music at conservation gatherings and celebrations!   Dave Brinker Itunes   

An elite group of men faced treacherous conditions deep in the Alaskan Wilderness that most would consider a situation of survival.  The Seacat Creative crew was on a film project with Backcountry Hunters and Anglers.  They were on a multi day float trip through a wilderness in Alaska when they received an alarming call that one of the crew members was having a baby in an emergency situation.  They needed to get him out of the wilderness as soon as possible so he could witness the birth of his first child.  As planes couldn't land to pick them up, their only option was to float their way out through the worst of weather conditions.  Listen how the guys at Seacat Creative tell their story of how they made it out just in time!
