In this episode of HUNTR Podcast, we bring on guests Chris Dunkin and Skip Sligh to discuss some of the current issues with bowhunting today and what we can do as hunters to improve our experience moving forward. While the idea of hunter opportunity is great, it's been taken too far resulting in more bad than good for the archery hunting community. We talk about these issues all the time and it's up to us to make a difference. Whether that be separate crossbow seasons, eliminating baiting, or having some sort of regulation from state-to-state, it's important that we find a way to create more access for hunters. We also touch base on the recent EHD outbreak in the midwest and how it may change things for a lot of hunters this season. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show as the guys get deep into the politics of deer hunting and what we can do as a community to make a difference.
