Another busy show this week on Outdoor Magazine….
First, Mike Bailey of the Michigan DNR joins me with a forecast of what to expect from this year’s firearm deer season. In a nutshell, southern lower Michigan hunters can expect another great season.
Then, Michelle Scheurmann of Sportsman Channel talks about the channel’s continued evolution into a top tier network. She also announced this year’s contest for viewers choice awards.
The hour wrapped up with Tom Campbell of the Woods-n-Waternews. Tom told us what to expect from the November issue of the magazine.
The second hour features noted outdoor writer and expert big game hunter Richard P. Smith. Richard talked about hunting for late season Michigan bears in agricultural areas. He also had some great deer hunting stories.
Smith commented as well on the plan to merge the Michigan DNR and DEQ. He’s concerned about the director of that new agency being a political appointee.
Deer hunters will enjoy the third hour of the show as we talk with Steve Francis of The Country Smokehouse in Almont, Michigan. Steve probably processes more deer than anyone in the state and he has some great tips of field care of your deer. Steve also gives some suggestions on what to do with your venison.
Dixie Dave Minar follows up on that theme as he joins me in the studio with a great venison recipe. He also brings us up to speed on his Wild Game Soups.
A very busy show this week. I hope you enjoy it…..
