6 Ranch Podcast

Chris Wittman, one of the founders of Captains for Clean Waters joins the show this week to talk about how they are fighting for free speech in Florida to stop a bill that would make it so that someone who calls out agricultural pollution could be sued without the opportunity of recompense.  We talk about that, tarpon fishing, and the greater mission of Captains for Clean Waters. We need your help on this one, not just to listen, but for you to learn how a couple minutes of your efforts can benefit wildlife in Florida and around the world. Enjoy!

Brent Oliver was partially decapitated by a cable strung between two trees while riding his dirt bike. After someone passing by did CPR on him for two hours. He was without oxygen for over twenty minutes and died. And came back. His story of recovery from a quadriplegic to having a thriving career, a family, and becoming an elite off-road driver is among the most powerful narratives I’ve ever heard. He is an example of unrelenting courage and determination. You’ll never hear another story like this, because there are no other stories like this.

Rounded to a whole number the percentage of hunters who are successful with their cougar tags in Oregon is 0. Joe Lewis his cougar tags 9 out of the last ten years. He is in the elite minority of people who have cracked the code on cougar hunting without dogs, and this week’s episode we talk about how it’s been done in the past and how his tactics have evolved. You aren’t going to want to miss this one. If you are enjoying the show leave us a review. Check out more from Joe’s website where you can enroll in his class on the newest tactic.

Bill Ables is back talk about backcountry flying, chukar hunting and stories from his game warden days which he retired from 25 years ago.

The language of hunting matters. Policies that affect hunting, hunters and wildlife require the buy in of people who don’t hunt. This is a discussion between myself, Robbie Kroger from the Origins Foundation and Charles Whitwam from Howl For Wildlife. You will not find two people more dedicated to defending wildlife or hunting than these two men. Enjoy the conversation.
