We’ve published quite a few podcasts recently featuring Stewards of the Wild, TPWF’s young professionals organization. The idea for Stewards came from two Dallas outdoorsmen who knocked around an idea for a young professionals organization while sitting in a South Texas deer blind more then seven years ago. Those two young men were Josh McKee and Mac MacFarlan, and we checked in with them recently to find out more about the Stewards of the Wild origin story.
