Guy Duplantier, Efren Gonzalez, and Jeff DeVaul join me this week to discuss the Western Hunt Fest. This festival is a two huntfest that involves a 3D archery course, elk calling seminars and contests, a pack-out challenge, and tons of other family-friendly events for everyone to enjoy! IN this episode, we talk about the events and locations of each Western Hunt Fest in 2024, then we dive into some hunting etiquette discussions, using excuses after season, hunting crowded trailheads, and lots more!
