Hunting Arete Podcast

Barry Howlett, Executive Office of Australian Deer Association talks about what happens behind the scenes to protect, promote and propagate Hunters' rights. Any representative organisation is only as strong as its members participation and feedback. The more we assist then the greater the impact we can have on the positive perspectives of hunting. This involvement makes it so much easier for people like Barry to to fight and promote our interest. And this goes for any hunter or fishing organisation and it members anywhere in the world.

I am joined by Nathan Foster from Terminal Ballistics Research to discuss a broad range of rifle and shooting related topics. Nathan has recently published a five book bundle on all facets of maintenance, accurizing, reloading and long range shooting technique for hunters.  

Robbie Kroger from Blood Origins joins me on this episode. We discuss his life, a unique connection to hunting, his work professionally and his Passion, Blood Origins. How do hunters and huntresses show the world that there is more to us than the just the kill? Blood Origins is, I think, part of the solution. Thanks for listening.

Bolt Action Productions is the creation of Steve and Leigh, best mates since childhood. Their YouTube channel, of the same name, started as a place to keep and share their memories of all things to do with their true passions of hunting and fishing. More than one of their mates said it was too good to keep hidden – so Steve went public. Everyday Bolt Action Productions receives more followers. On a visit down south Hunting Arete caught up with the boys and discussed motivations and passion that drive their hunting and fishing, the future of hunting and why we should all care about how we portray ourselves as hunters.
