“I came across this podcast earlier this week and blasted through all of the episodes in a few days. It was great and left me wanting more! I’m a 36 year old from the Vancouver that has recently signed up to get my gun license and do the CORE training. I would highly recommend this podcast to any hunter, young or old. It’s jam packed with lots of tips and tricks. Mike and Kelly seem like good, down to earth dudes who explain all of their experiences (good or bad) Thanks guys! Keep up the good work.” — Aaron Pilgrim Canada
