About this episode

Elliott Snider and guest Jake Maxwell discuss turkey hunting experiences and the complexities of non-resident hunting regulations.

In this episode, I’m joined by Jake from Chasing Green, one of the most driven and knowledgeable voices in waterfowl hunting today. We kick things off with a full breakdown of an unforgettable turkey hunt together, from tough conditions to an incredible finish and why those shared moments in the woods mean so much. Then we shift into a deeper conversation around non resident hunting regulations, pressure, and the future of waterfowl hunting. Jake shares his perspective on providing value to the hunting community, the importance of mentorship, and how hunters can shorten the learning curve and find success on public land. If you’ve followed Chasing Green or you’re trying to improve as a hunter, this is a conversation you’ll want to hear.
