On this episode of The Wisconsin Sportsman, Pierce is joined by outdoor writer, Matt Geiger to dive into why we hunt! Matt is a New England native who now lives and hunts in Southwest Wisconsin. The guys dive into Matt's hunting season so far, the ag tag program, stories from the Cazenovia Doe Derby, the importance of hunting rituals, a knife in the knee, the importance of venison as a food source, using venison to as a bridge between hunters and non-hunters, CWD's impact on deer herd dynamics, teaching children through conservation, and the importance of Sharing the Land. All that and more in this week's episode!
