Steven Rinella talks with the one and only Will Primos, Janis Putelis, Seth Morris, Randall Williams, Cory Calkins, Phil Taylor, and Corinne Schneider.
The importance of the attitude; zero negativity; crooked pinkys; prophylactics; the size of the pallet; the time when our very own Cory Calkins guided Will; Steve’s belief in being able to train up wildlife cinematographers on hunt acumen; patience is a good hunter; if you know you oughta do something, don’t; Will’s new book, “Straight Shooting for Hunters”; the nuances of shooting things flying through the air; the eye trick; when the hammer falls, the dragon breathes fire; don’t keep an eye on the bead; gun fit; shooting too hot; a shared love of "Jeremiah Johnson"; and more.
Outro song "My Dogs" written by Ron Boehme, host of The Hunting Dog Podcast, and sung by Michael Daggett.
