A landmark court ruling could reshape fisheries management and strengthen sportsmen's rights nationwide. The Sportsmen's Voice Roundup looks at a major North Carolina fisheries ruling with implications well beyond the coast. After a six-year lawsuit brought by the Coastal Conservation Association of North Carolina and 86 citizen plaintiffs, a state Superior Court upheld findings that North Carolina failed to meet its obligations under the Public Trust Doctrine. The ruling is significant for anglers because it directly connects fisheries management to North Carolina's constitutional right to hunt and fish. Connor Barker explains what the 190-page court order found, why the evidence surrounding declining fish stocks was so compelling, and what happens next as the case moves toward remediation. The conversation also examines industrial shrimp trawling in sounds and estuaries, the effects of destructive fishing practices on fish nurseries and bycatch, and the broader implications for fisheries conservation. Beyond North Carolina, the discussion explores how constitutional right to hunt and fish amendments have been tested in other states, including Nebraska, and why carefully crafted constitutional language can matter when wildlife and fisheries management decisions reach the courts. The episode also covers National Shooting Sports Month, early small-game and bear seasons in the Northeast, chronic wasting disease resources for deer hunters, and proposed 2027–2029 hunting regulations in Washington.

Hunting access, conservation funding, and the right to hunt and fish are all facing major battles nationwide. The sportsmen's policy landscape is moving fast, with more than 100 state-level policy wins already secured this year and hundreds more issues still in play. Brent Miller, Vice President of Policy at the Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation, breaks down the biggest victories, ongoing fights, and emerging threats facing hunters and anglers across the United States. The conversation covers major progress on Sunday hunting in the Northeast, including expanded opportunities in Delaware, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Connecticut. Miller also explains how no-net-loss laws are protecting hunting and fishing access, including 300,000 acres secured in South Carolina, and why conservation funding remains critical to state wildlife agencies and federal Pittman-Robertson and Dingell-Johnson funding. The discussion also tackles hunter education in schools, efforts to strengthen the right to hunt and fish, and the defeat of Oregon IP 28, a ballot initiative that would have banned hunting, fishing, and trapping statewide. Colorado's proposed constitutional right to hunt and fish is another major focus, along with the broader fight over ballot-box biology. Looking ahead, Miller previews the National Assembly of Sportsmen's Caucuses Summit, including controversial issues such as open fields, genetic modification of wildlife, and a new conservation literacy initiative designed to introduce young people to hunting, fishing, and the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation.

Learn the latest as Oregon voters reject an anti-hunting initiative, a $10,000 Wyoming wolf hunter bounty sparks controversy, and Ohio YouTubers are convicted in a long-running deer poaching case. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! The latest on Oregon's anti-hunting ballot measure, the $10,000 Wyoming wolf hunter bounty backlash, and the Ohio YouTubers' deer poaching convictions. These three news hunting and agriculture topics are hot! Learn why it is important to advocate for our Outdoors and Western Way of Life from ranching to farming and rodeo too. Oregon Hunting, Fishing & Agriculture Protected as Anti-Hunting Ballot Initiative Falls Short  Oregon's controversial Initiative Petition 28 (IP28), also known as the PEACE Act, has failed to qualify for the November ballot after falling roughly 13,000 valid signatures short of the required threshold. The proposed measure would have removed long-standing exemptions to Oregon's animal cruelty laws, potentially criminalizing legal hunting, fishing, ranching, farming, wildlife management, and other animal-related activities. Conservation groups, agricultural organizations, sportsmen, and bipartisan state leaders strongly opposed the proposal, warning it would have far-reaching impacts on Oregon's rural communities, food production, wildlife management, and outdoor heritage. Supporters of hunting and conservation welcomed the outcome, viewing it as a victory for science-based wildlife management and responsible stewardship. Organizations including the Sportsmen's Alliance and the Oregon Hunters Association argued the measure threatened sustainable conservation programs funded by hunters and anglers, while jeopardizing livelihoods tied to agriculture and ranching. Notably, opposition to the initiative crossed political lines, with Oregon Governor Tina Kotek, Democratic legislative leaders, and Republican lawmakers all publicly rejecting the proposal.  Although the initiative failed to reach the ballot, its chief petitioner acknowledged the campaign was intended to build long-term momentum for similar measures in Oregon and other states, signaling that sportsmen, agricultural producers, and conservation advocates will likely remain engaged in defending regulated hunting, fishing, and farming practices in future election cycles. Reference: https://www.outdoorlife.com/conservation/oregon-hunting-ban-fails/ What Is IP28? The proposal, known as the PEACE Act (Initiative Petition 28), would remove many of the legal exemptions that currently allow activities involving animals, including: Hunting, trapping, and fishing (including catch-and-release fishing) Livestock and ranching operations Some forms of pest control Certain wildlife and animal research practices The measure would also create programs intended to help Oregon transition toward what supporters describe as a "no-kill or harm" sanctuary state. Why Is It Gaining Attention? Previous versions of the proposal failed to reach the ballot in 2020 and 2022. Opponents believe this year's effort has a stronger chance because organizers have more funding and have used paid signature gatherers, which Oregon law allows. $10,000 Bounty on Wyoming Wolf Hunters Sparks Outrage A Texas social media influencer is offering a $10,000 reward for information identifying anyone who legally harvests a gray wolf from a Yellowstone pack after it leaves the national park, prompting sharp criticism from Wyoming wildlife officials and hunting advocates. Jonas Black announced the bounty on Facebook, saying he wants to identify hunters who harvest wolf 1090F or members of her pack during Wyoming's upcoming wolf season. Black also threatened to publicly expose anyone who legally tags one of the animals. The Wyoming Game and Fish Department called the offer "outrageous," saying it encourages harassment of hunters who are following state law. Wyoming protects the identities of lawful wolf hunters from public disclosure because of past threats and intimidation directed at sportsmen. Wildlife officials emphasize that while wolves are protected inside Yellowstone National Park, they can legally be hunted once they leave park boundaries in designated management areas. Biologists also note that the famous Yellowstone pack is managed like any other wolf pack under the state's science-based wildlife management plan. To protect local wolf populations, Wyoming reduced the number of wolf tags available in the affected hunting unit from eight to four this season. The season opens September 15, and successful wolf hunts remain rare, with statewide hunter success rates averaging only about 3 percent. Hunter advocates warn that publicly targeting law-abiding hunters could discourage participation in regulated wildlife management programs and put private citizens at risk of harassment or threats.  Our thoughts, private hunters should not face intimidation for participating in a legal, state-managed hunting season. https://www.outdoorlife.com/conservation/bounty-wolf-hunter-identities/ Ohio YouTubers Convicted After Years-Long Deer Poaching Scheme Two Ohio YouTubers who ran the now-removed Creek Kings Outdoors channel have been sentenced after investigators uncovered a years-long deer poaching operation tied to online content and sponsorship money. William Bethel, 28, and Justin Booth, 23, admitted to 20 wildlife-related offenses each, including illegally hunting deer, trespassing, and failing to properly tag harvested animals. Investigators say the pair illegally hunted deer in Columbus-area parks where hunting is prohibited and falsely claimed some of the animals were harvested in Kentucky. According to Outdoor Life, Franklin County Wildlife Officer Mark Williams says the men were motivated by YouTube views and sponsorship deals, calling the case "wildlife commercialization with a modern twist." He says every deer featured on their channel was illegally killed or possessed in some way. The investigation began after park staff discovered bait, tree stands, and trail cameras inside Three Creeks Metro Park. Even after officials removed the equipment, the men returned, allowing investigators to identify and document their activities over the following hunting season. Williams says the case also highlights clues that can help expose illegal hunting, such as transporting an ungutted deer over long distances to conceal where it was actually killed. The two cousins were ordered to pay more than $37,000 in combined fines, fees, and court costs. They will each serve nine days in jail, lose their hunting, fishing, and trapping privileges for five years, and are banned from Columbus and Franklin County Metro Parks during that time.

In this episode, I sit down with Chris Sutton for a real, unfiltered conversation that covers a little bit of everything. We dive into the excitement surrounding the upcoming deer season—what we're seeing, what we're expecting, and how we're preparing. But it's not all tactics and trail cams. We also get into some of the ongoing drama in the hunting industry, sharing honest thoughts on where things are headed and what it means for hunters today. To wrap it up, we take a step back and talk about life—where we're at, where we're going, and how things are evolving both in and out of the woods. It's a laid-back, genuine conversation that blends hunting, perspective, and a bit of real-life reflection. If you're gearing up for deer season or just enjoy hearing authentic conversations from people living the lifestyle, this one's for you.

Conservation victories prove organized sportsmen can still shape wildlife policy before lasting damage is done. For hunters, trappers, and conservation advocates, policy battles don't stop when the hunting season ends. This week,The Sportsmen's Voice Roundup breaks down two major victories that could have lasting impacts on wildlife management across the West. First, Oregon's controversial IP28, a ballot initiative that sought to ban hunting, trapping, fishing, and livestock management, officially failed to qualify for the November ballot after falling short on valid signatures. While it's a significant win for the sporting community, the conversation explains why similar efforts are almost certain to return and why coalition building between hunters, ranchers, farmers, and conservation organizations will be critical moving forward. The discussion then shifts to Colorado, where the state wildlife commission rejected a proposed retail fur ban after hours of public testimony. While that proposal failed, new trapping restrictions and reduced daily harvest limits raise important questions about science-based wildlife management, predator control, furbearer conservation, and the future of trapping as a conservation tool. The conversation also covers national headlines, including Massachusetts' effort to repeal sweeping gun control legislation, updates on polar bear import legislation, prescribed fire and wildfire policy, invasive wild pig management, shark depredation concerns along the Northeast coast, and conservation funding challenges facing Michigan.

Tonight, the show featured current League of KY Sportsmen President, Doug Ramey and past League Presidents Mark Neghery and Ed Morris to inform sportsmen about the history, legacy and funding problems of the LKS.

A landmark court victory could reshape firearm policy across the country. For hunters, anglers, and recreational shooters, constitutional rights don't end at the trailhead or the parking lot. A major U.S. Supreme Court decision striking down Hawaii's so-called "vampire rule" could have lasting implications for sportsmen nationwide. Kaylee Mortensen joins the conversation to explain how Hawaii's law restricted lawful firearm carry on private property open to the public and why the Court found those restrictions unconstitutional. More importantly, you'll hear what this ruling could mean for hunters traveling to and from the field, concealed carry permit holders, and similar firearm laws in states like Massachusetts, California, New York, and New Jersey. The conversation also looks beyond the courtroom, covering positive conservation developments from around the country. Hear updates on proposed changes to Nebraska deer hunting regulations and mountain lion management, recruitment efforts aimed at growing the next generation of hunters, and practical summer trapping preparation tips before fall and winter seasons arrive. The roundup also previews an upcoming conversation with Congressman Ryan Zinke on wildlife corridors and public policy affecting America's outdoor heritage. Whether you're following hunting legislation, conservation policy, or simply preparing for another season outdoors, these are the stories shaping the future of hunting and fishing across America.

In this episode, we sit down with Cody Idol to dive into his new documentary Antler Craze, a film centered around one of the most legendary whitetails ever known — “The General,” the largest typical shed buck ever found. Cody shares the story behind the film, what drew him to this once-in-a-lifetime deer, and the deeper meaning behind the obsession with antlers that continues to shape hunting culture today. We explore the history and mystique surrounding The General, as well as the impact stories like this have on hunters across generations. Beyond the documentary, the conversation shifts into the future of deer storytelling — where it's headed, how it's evolving, and why these stories matter more than ever. From tradition to modern media, we break down how chasing deer and sharing those experiences has influenced who we are and continues to shape the hunting community. This is a must-listen for anyone passionate about whitetails, storytelling, and the legacy behind the chase.   Podcast brought to you by: Sportsmen's empire  LWCG https://www.lonewolfcustomgear.com Asio : SEBH for 15% off https://asiogear.com/ Bowtique: SEBHP https://thebowtiquellc.com/ G5 Outdoors https://www.g5outdoors.com/ Prime Archery https://www.g5prime.com/ Dialed Archery https://dialedarchery.com/ Moultrie https://www.moultrie.com/ BHL https://bowhuntingleague.com Whitetail Champion Whitetail Champion | Join the Bowhunting Challenge Today Scrape doctor SEBH15 for 15%  https://scrapedoctor.com/ Victory Archery  https://www.victoryarchery.com/ Catalyst archery https://catalystarchery.com SEBH10 Unbound Archery SEBH10 for 10% off https://www.unboundarchery.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode, we sit down with TJ Givens from ToKnowHim Outdoors for a conversation that goes far beyond the hunt. TJ shares the story behind his late-season doe and buck harvests—the strategy, patience, and lessons learned when it all finally came together in the field. But this episode isn't just about hunting. We dive deep into faith, talking openly about our relationship with Jesus Christ and how it shapes the way we live, hunt, and connect with others. It's a real, unfiltered discussion about purpose, perseverance, and trusting God through every season of life. And just when you think you know where the conversation is going… we take a turn into the unknown, exploring thoughts on aliens, the unexplained, and how it all fits into our worldview. From deer camp stories to deeper spiritual conversations and a few unexpected rabbit trails, this episode has a little bit of everything.   Podcast brought to you by: Sportsmen's empire  LWCG https://www.lonewolfcustomgear.com Asio : SEBH for 15% off https://asiogear.com/ Bowtique: SEBHP https://thebowtiquellc.com/ G5 Outdoors https://www.g5outdoors.com/ Prime Archery https://www.g5prime.com/ Dialed Archery https://dialedarchery.com/ Moultrie https://www.moultrie.com/ BHL https://bowhuntingleague.com Whitetail Champion Whitetail Champion | Join the Bowhunting Challenge Today Scrape doctor SEBH15 for 15%  https://scrapedoctor.com/ Victory Archery  https://www.victoryarchery.com/ Catalyst archery https://catalystarchery.com SEBH10 Unbound Archery SEBH10 for 10% off https://www.unboundarchery.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

A decades-long hunting battle nears victory as conservation wins stack nationwide. Momentum is building for hunters, anglers, and conservation advocates across the country. This week's Sportsmen's Voice Roundup covers a major development in Massachusetts, where Sunday hunting legislation is closer to becoming law than ever before. After key provisions were stripped from the Governor's budget proposal earlier this year, lawmakers revived and unanimously advanced measures that would expand hunting opportunities, increase access for working hunters, allow broader crossbow use during archery season, and modernize outdated setback requirements. Listeners will hear why this legislation matters not only for deer management and public health concerns like Lyme disease and Alpha-gal syndrome, but also for the future of hunting access in one of America's most restrictive states. The conversation also dives into encouraging wild turkey harvest numbers across the Southeast. Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Louisiana all reported exceptional spring turkey seasons, highlighting the ongoing success of wild turkey conservation and restoration efforts. Additional updates include the latest on South Atlantic red snapper management, California legislation supporting hunter safety during archery seasons, and how free fishing days across the Great Lakes region continue introducing new anglers to the water. If you care about hunting access, wildlife management, turkey hunting, recreational fishing, and the policies shaping the future of the outdoors, this is a roundup you won't want to miss.

Conservation policy battles are heating up across the country, but one proposal in Oregon continues to demand national attention. This week's Sportsmen's Voice Roundup examines the latest developments surrounding Oregon's IP 28 ballot initiative, a measure that could dramatically impact hunting, fishing, wildlife management, and the future of sportsmen-led conservation. CSF's Marie Neumiller joins the show to break down where the petition process currently stands, why signature verification remains a critical hurdle, and what hunters and anglers across the country should understand about the growing effort to restrict traditional outdoor pursuits through ballot initiatives. While IP 28 has not officially qualified for the 2026 ballot, the conversation around it is already influencing public perceptions of hunting and wildlife conservation. Fred also covers discussions in Kansas about restoring a fall turkey hunting season, major wins for recreational anglers in Louisiana's menhaden fishery, legislative victories in New York that prevented harmful restrictions on hunters, and ongoing efforts to expand Sunday hunting opportunities in Massachusetts. Whether you care about turkey hunting, recreational fishing, wildlife habitat management, public policy, or the future of conservation, this conversation provides valuable insight into the challenges and opportunities shaping America's outdoor traditions.

New technology could reshape whale conservation while opening opportunities for anglers nationwide.

New firearm restrictions and hunting access proposals could reshape California's outdoor future for sportsmen. California takes center stage this week as lawmakers debate firearm restrictions, hunting access, and new opportunities for young outdoorsmen facing life-threatening illnesses. The conversation digs into Senate Bill 948, a controversial proposal requiring extensive firearm training for purchases and transfers while potentially creating major hurdles for hunters and gun owners relocating to the state. The discussion also explores concerns over implementation costs, instructor shortages, and how the legislation could affect lawful firearm ownership in California. On the positive side, listeners get a detailed breakdown of Assembly Bill 1912, legislation that would finally allow archery hunters to carry a concealed firearm for self-defense during deer season. The episode explains why this issue matters for western hunters dealing with mountain lions, bears, and remote backcountry conditions, while highlighting how similar laws have evolved in other states. The conversation also covers Senate Bill 1021, a proposal designed to expand hunting and fishing opportunities for youth with life-threatening illnesses through partnerships with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. Alongside the California updates, the show touches on pro-sportsmen legislative victories in Tennessee, Sunday hunting discussions in Massachusetts, and conservation funding priorities in Michigan. If you care about hunting rights, firearm legislation, conservation policy, and the future of outdoor access, this is a timely look at the policies shaping America's sporting landscape.
