On this week's episode, Jim talks to his old buddy Larry Bartlett.  Larry is an outdoor writer and entrepreneur and has recently developed his own lightweight backcountry supplement, Minimus Nutrition.

Episode 63. Day Six Gear

The future of hunting is imperiled.  More and more hunters are competing for limited numbers of licenses.  Public land hunting is overcrowded, and private land hunting is increasingly unavailable to those unable or unwilling to pay for it.  These are the dominant problems facing hunters today, and nobody in the hunting industry and hunting entertainment is talking about them.  That is because they cause and even benefit from these problems, as do some hunting nonprofits.  Join Matt Rinella and his guests as they rethink the future of hunting and implement steps to save our cherished pastime.  Visit huntquietly.org to learn more.
