    was fortunate to attend this talk and the Aldo Leopold class that proceeded it. Steve seemed as genuine as he does on his show and podcast. I, a 6 foot 4, 250 pound guy came off as a starstruck teenage girl when I got a chance to meet him. so much for being a tough guy.

      He talks the talk and walks the walk. He teaches what he lives. Everything he says comes from years of experience, whether it's his own or one of his buddies is irrelevant. Thats also the reason why he is so easy to listen to. It's all genuinely serious and heartfelt unlike others where they are just going for money/fame/w.e.

      @bobcat65a Před 5 lety

      In one of your future videos, how about a program with specifics on what your camera staff carry into the field. Some of your viewers may fail to realize that those photo people are walking the walk with you and in many cases carrying some seriously, heavy equipment. It would be interesting to know what type of gear your prof people recommend to serious outdoor photo hunters and how they manage to keep the equipment functional. Certainly, you could extend the video program to include you shooting and cooking some game but how about a little more equal time? As sacrilegious and off-the-wall as it may sound, there may be a bunch of your viewers who might enjoy working the backcountry with video equipment--as much as packing out meat, hides, and heads.

      Man you should come to Victoria Australia, we have all the deer here, sambar being the most popular in the highcountry, they used to have a bag limit of one a day that was lifted a few years ago and there's now only a season for hunting with hounds. We can go almost anywhere all year and also chase sambar, fallow, chital, reds, rusa, pigs, goats. The only tags you need is for hog deer it's like 50 bucks over the counter that's one hind n one buck in March only. Because there global population is supported down here.
