Pass the Torch: a Father’s Day remark
I’ve been fortunate in my life to share time with outstanding mentors and role models that have shaped & crafted my woodsmanship, wildlife conservation & hunting ethics.

Waffle House style Venison Texas Cheesesteak
Venison is sustainable, renewable red meat and this was obviously the right choice to christen my blackstone griddle. By no means is this an original recipe. It’s simply my favorite dish from the world renowned, Southern culinary institution that is the one and only Waffle House.

There’s no coincidence this tropical/ subtropical legume native to India doesn’t get much attention in the mainstream hunting industry as it only grows in the Deep South.
