A little slower paced show this week on Outdoor Magazine radio and that means we have more time to explore some interesting outdoor issues.

First, I give my take on Quality Deer Management (QDM). In a nutshell, I think it’s great if hunters want to pass up smaller deer to let them grow, but I don’t believe they have the right to tell other hunters what to harvest.

Next, Tom Campbell of Woods N Waternews joins me with a preview of their next issue.

Richard P. Smith is featured in the second hour. Richard and I talk about bear hunting and I get his take on mandatory antler restrictions.

Tony Hansen of the Michigan United Conservation Clubs wraps up the hour with a look at outdoor news from Lansing.

In the final hour of this week’s show I talk with Michigan’s Mr. Walleye, Mark Martin. At the time of that conversation Mark was pre fishing for the AIM national championship. Mark talks about the techniques he used for that tournament, and has some great advice on fall fishing for walleye in Michigan.

This show is packed with lots of great information. I hope you like it.
