The Wannabe Hunting Podcast

I’m Amos, and I’m a new hunter. Welcome to the family friendly hunting podcast. My goal is to interview experienced hunters to both glean and share their wisdom and tactics in the woods, to support and promote conservation of both wildlife and our hunting opportunities, and to strive to honor the Lord with all that we do. One thing I have learned already is that, whether you have been hunting for days or decades, we all wannabe hunting!
