Welcome to the Outdoor Podcast, brought to you by Bow Hunter Planet—where our mission is simple: get more people outside and connected to the great outdoors.

This episode is powered by our amazing partners:

XOP Outdoors, Spartan Camera, Carbon Express, Block Targets, Element Outdoors, and Gas Bowstrings. We appreciate their commitment to preserving and growing our outdoor heritage.

In this Spring 2026 kickoff episode, Tim and Dave are back in the studio with a fresh setup and a real conversation about the future of hunting. We cover:

The baiting debate—should it be allowed?

Making hunting more accessible for everyone

Growing the outdoor community

Spring hunt camp prep and traditions

Tick season, camp cooking, and gear talk

Why opportunity matters more than difficulty

We keep it real, we keep it fun, and we keep it focused on what matters—getting outside.
