From tales of bow hunting in New Zealand's captivating wilderness and smashing goals in state forests to the meticulous packing of a backpack for the next adventure, we aim to capture the heart of nature with every step, every shot, and every story shared. So, lace up your boots and tune in for an episode filled with raw emotion, laughter, and a shared love for the great outdoors with Dave Burgess from DTB Adventures. He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table, sparking a conversation that's as much about family as it is about the thrill of the hunt.

In the depths of the forest, we find ourselves at the intersection of wildlife conservation and the hunter's ethos, discussing the balance struck by systems like lotteries for tag distribution and the role of the Department of Primary Industries during the pandemic. From the Australian landscape's unique challenges to the novel idea of an app to distinguish deer species, our exchange is a mosaic of stories, strategies, and tips for both seasoned hunters and those new to the art.

We wrap up with a journey through the ethics of harvesting and butchering, where I share my personal evolution towards a profound respect for the meat and the animal it comes from.
