EP 139: Hunting Elk Like Daniel Boone

Join us this week Carter and our favorite co-host sit down with team member Josh Reed who just wrapped up his season hunting elk in the hills of appalachia, the same hills that famous hunters like Daniel Boone once hunted.

Elk were re-introduced to Kentucky in 1997 by the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation (RMEF) and has worked diligently to grow the herd so that hunters like Josh Reed can hunt the once native animals to the foothills of Kentucky.

Listen through this episode as the boys sit down and Josh talks all about his journey trying to pull the coveted tag and his success in killing a cow elk.
