EP 527. Legendary Coca-Cola Woods and Beyond Nov 18, 2024

Show notes

Born-and-raised Arkansas native Rusty Creasey was manager and head guide at legendary Coca-Cola Woods Duck Club for 20 years, continuing the legacy of his uncle Harvey, who managed the property for the 40 years prior. Recognized for his learned-from-a-lifetime-doing-it expertise, Rusty shares his thoughts on Arkansas flooded timber hunting, thoughtfully covering the topics of growing up in rural Arkansas, life lessons and important influences, a lifetime spent in Coca Cola woods, habitat conditions and management, hunting "local" versus "migrator" mallards, the do-and-don't rules hunting flooded timber effectively, archery hunting green heads, and why for the first time since 1958 there won't be a Creasey family member in the iconic Coca Cola woods this season. Like watching mallards magically spilling over the tree tops and splashing at your feet, it's a memorable conversation.

EP 525. There's Something About Sandhill Cranes Nov 11, 2024

Show notes

One of North America's most unique webless gamebirds, sandhill cranes are oftentimes referred to as "ribeyes of the sky" and included among popular waterfowl slam listings. Alabama biologist Courtnay Conring has studied them extensively and hunted them seriously. We do a deep dive into sandhill cranes to include migrating and non-migrating populations, which populations are hunted and protected, differences between greater and lesser sandhill cranes, habitat, diet, habitat conservation, new hunting opportunities, cooking and how-to sandhill crane hunting techniques. Whether collecting groceries, trophies or experiences, most North American waterfowl hunters may likely find themselves chasing sandhill cranes and will appreciate this informative discussion.

EP 524. On Delivering First-class Hunting Lodge Hospitality Nov 07, 2024

Show notes

You've traveled far away from home for a dream hunt and--all things equal, some days better than others--waterfowl are a constant. It's the everything else that really makes a huge difference. Which is why on the heels of another epic 3-day waterfowl hunt at Prairie Limits Outfitters, I met with Brian Cramer to gain insight on "controlling the controllables" and delivering superior, made-to-feel-at-home hospitality. Because too few do it as well.
