About this episode

The education team discusses how entry points into hunting and fishing have evolved and the importance of supporting new hunters of all ages.

The education team hosts share how they were introduced to hunting and fishing and then discuss how entry points have changed throughout the year. We all are living different lives and knowing where folks are at in their hunting and fishing journey can help foster those skills of new hunters. A new hunter now a days is not always a kid. Young and older adults are picking up fishing rods and bows for the first time later on in life. Supporting those folks is key to maintaining our hunting and fishing heritage.
