If you want to get into hunting or are an existing hunter who wants to learn about other types of hunting then this is the podcast for you. George does an excellent job of explaining how to get started into hunting in a way that makes it approachable and fun. There are so much information to glean from each episode. I found his podcast after watching some of his videos comparing different waterfowl ammo and decided to give the podcast a listen. Now I am hooked! Give the podcast a listen, you will not be disappointed.

Love your style and your down to earth podcasts. This podcast is excellent information on jump shooting, it’s probably the best way for me to harvest ducks as well, we don’t get very many chances at em and a first shot TSS load is what I run. The few TSS shells in the upper front pocket is the way I keep them handy too. By the way, George as of 2-10-25 Freedom munitions (google it) has #7 shot TSS qty 5 for $23 a box right now.

I’ve never hunted before but at 47 years old want to learn. George answers the questions a new hunter has that a person who grew up hunting may not have considered. He also does it with charisma and like that college professor whose lectures you enjoy.

. I’ve been hunting for forty years and tuned in because I’m new to turkey hunting. Not only have I learned a ton of great techniques for chasing turkeys, but found the deer hunting episodes helpful as well, even though I’ve been chasing whitetails since the early 80’s.

I love this show, both the podcasts and YouTube channel. George picks relevant, interesting topics and does an in depth but efficient review of the subject. I particularly liked his shows on hearing protection. I also liked his small game 101 series. After decades of deer hunting, I’m now growing more interested is a casual walk through the woods with my shotgun or .22 to kick up a rabbit or squirrel. Thanks George!

George does a fantastic job of presenting things in a way that they are approachable and interesting for everyone. His organization and delivery are great. Don’t neglect to check out his website, which has organized categories and notes that help you navigate all the information in a linear fashion.

I think his content is the best there is for hunters trying to find the best gear and methods of hunting

George does a thorough job of walking listeners through a variety of hunting topics.

As a new hunter I am very grateful for this podcast. He does an amazing job of explaining things and getting someone with little to no experience feeling confident to go out hunting. God bless and keep on putting out good information.

Best hunting show for beginners. All educational and no rants and miss leading info. Don’t waste your time with other shows listen to this and then try the others.

I’ve never heard a better hunting podcast in my life….and I’m listening to lots of them.

Very informative show for broad spectrum of hunting. Came across months back as I took on DIY duck hunting. Enjoyed listening to several episodes with the basics to hunt ducks. Just finished my third trip out and got my first duck. Thanks George!

This guy has a really awesome show! He does a really good job with explaining things in detail in a way that sense even to new hunters. I would highly recommend this show to anyone who is seeking advice on how to get started with hunting. Even if you’re an experienced hunter it’s always interesting to hear other folks ideas.

Great shows that break it down and help us navigate all of the things like what kind of gear I need for waterfowl hunting and what I can pass on. I’m an adult onset hunter entering my second season of ducks, geese, and pigs. What I really appreciate about the show is that it doesn’t talk down to the new guys, doesn’t have the feel of a corporate podcast pushing their products. Refreshing and helpful.

I have listened to all of these episodes and some multiple times. I have many friends who mainly hunt white tail deer down south. George has been spot on with all his knowledge. He has helped me tremendously getting started into hunting. I highly recommend this podcast. Keep up the great work!

I'm a middle-aged new hunter. Never hunted turkey before this season. This podcast helped me tag my first turkey on my first season out - did not expect that to happen.

I’ve been deer hunting for about 20 years. Seriously bow hunting for about the last 10. Before this year, I turkey hunted a handful of times and I had killed 3 turkeys. So I’m not exactly a new hunter, but I still love this podcast and find it so helpful. I tagged out with 2 toms the first two mornings of spring turkey this year, and then a couple days later took a friend out and he tagged out on the first sit. I credit those three birds 100% from knowledge gained from podcasts, and this podcast was one of the best. Love all the approaches you take into tactics/strategies/equipment and explaining the pros and cons of each. It’s also refreshing to hear somebody who talks about getting it done by just going back to the basics. With how complex the world of hunting has been getting, I myself need to be reminded that you can get it done with the bare minimum and have a ton of success. Kinda makes it fun again too. I think it’s good for even experienced hunters to be reminded of the foundational basics that can sometimes be complacently blown over while overthinking everything. Just get what you NEED and get in the woods. -Matt, Southern Ohio

Just what I was looking for, truly speaks to the beginner in a helpful and welcoming way. Thanks!

Great podcast. George breaks it all down in a fun and easy way. I can’t recommend it enough.

I was new to hunting and this podcast told me everything I needed to know. It was very helpful and I loved it. Thank you so much George! “Go get ‘em in the woods!”

Without this podcast, I may not have started hunting. George breaks down hunting for people with little to no experience in a way that I haven't found with other podcasts, articles, videos, etc. I really appreciate how thorough he is with each topic he covers, yet when he goes into detail he's not talking to the listener as if they have years of experience. This truly is the New Hunters Guide, and I'd suggest anybody new to hunting start with this podcast.

I first listened when I was searching for some turkey hunting content and listened to episode 39 and 40. And more recently I’ve gotten through about 6 of the newer waterfowl ones - they're fun to listen to while I'm out driving around and scouting spots right now. I think the format of these episodes are spot on for new hunters or even experienced hunters who are going after different game because it gives you small nuggets of info and you can research further to learn more. I’d recommend this to anyone looking to get started!

I had gotten interested and passionate learning about hunting and it was a skill I wanted to learn but without a mentor it’s been a frustrating road at times. This podcast has validated much of the info I had to dig for myself and taught me so much that it’s made me excited for the next deer season because I feel like I’ve got a helper now.

This is the podcast YOU and I have been looking for. I am a first generation hunter, my dad didn’t hunt. George has been a mentor to me through this podcast, he’s given me direction and confidence. George goes into just the right amount information to be helpful but not overwhelming. He has answered questions I never even thought to ask, which have been super helpful… I didn’t even know enough to ask them. George - Keep up the good work, brother!

Started deer hunting in 2020 as well as attempt predator hunting and found this podcast in 2021 when I wanted to turkey hunt in the spring for the first time. George does a great job at keeping it simple and making hunting accessible. It doesn’t need to be fancy and complicated! Love his attitude about using gear you already have, what to look for when shopping for new gear, and getting into the woods. The tactics and strategies he talks about are great. Once again I feel like I’ve been successful so far tagging out last year and this spring by keeping it simple and listening. I’ve been recommending this podcast to friends thinking about hunting (any type!) and I love how George just wants to grow the sport. Lots of great little nuggets on new types of hunting and little things I’m excited to try this year for deer hunting and turkey hunting going forward. Love the podcast! PS- Up here in New Hampshire we have a long black bear season. I’d love if some episodes can be done for that. Definitely a bit of a niche hunt and not typically beginner friendly but would be interesting!

I’m new to hunting and your podcast have helped me immensely!!!!

I’m a new hunter and the only one in my family & extended family. With no one teach or guide me, this podcast was essentially my education to whitetail hunting. My first season I was able to set up a tree stand on a spot where I saw doe almost every sit, no doe tag. My second season I took a young buck with a bow in Massachusetts. The education in the basics from this podcast was what a needed for success. I still listen to the podcasts on whitetail over again.

Thanks so much!

This podcast is a awesome resource for anyone interested to start hunting or exploring the idea of starting to hunt.

I am a new hunter as of the past 2 seasons. I discovered this podcast in late 2020 and immediately wished I had found a year before. No matter, I have listened to nearly all the past episodes on hunting in general and really all the deer hunting episodes. Very practical, technical but not overly so for us new guys. Many explanations and definitions given so I could learn the language and jargon of hunting. No fluff. Budget conscious. Etc, etc. love it. If you are new to hunting or wanting to learn something new and perhaps change up some of your old patterns, you have to give this podcast a serious try. I don’t believe you will regret it.

I’ve heard a lot of podcasts about hunting and they are typically all the same. Except this one, he is HONEST and he does his homework on each subject that he speaks on. Not to mention that he also includes the word of God as well. You have a terrific podcast sir and don’t change anything. Thanks for what you are doing!

I am a brand new deer hunter and I’ve had all kinds of questions about deer hunting and I’ve been searching for a podcast and it has helped me in a lot of way more than I can explain so keep up the good work

I just started listening to the podcast and have found it very informative. I’m new to hunting and have found it difficult to get the right information. I’ve read multiple books, but have found they are too advanced or too basic. George’s podcast really gets to the point and helps a new hunter understand what is and is not needed.

I thoroughly enjoy each of George’s podcasts, even when I don’t plan on hunting the species that he’s talking about. As an amateur hunter, I’ve enjoyed the way he cuts through the marketing and “things you should have” and tells you what you need and what you don’t (or maybe don’t need until you get more experience). Seems to me to be a man of strong faith and character, and I believe that you’ll enjoy the podcast as well!

This podcast taught me a lot. I am a new hunter and really leaned a lot of useful info from this series. A lot of hunting info is designed to sell products or is designed to appeal to trophy hunters. Neither approach appeals to me. This show really helps you learn about hunting.

I am relatively new to hunting and always want to learn real information and tips. Very down to earth and great information! Thank you!

Just getting into hunting and I have Learned a ton so far. Thank you!!!

This is a great podcast, very informative and well thought out filled with helpful information.

Great resource of information to get going! Enjoyed every minute.

The perfect resource for beginners and experienced alike! Can't wait to hear more, thank you!

Nice bite sized chunks of information to help people get started.
