  Episode 63 - Protecting the Future of Hunting: Hunting’ Fool’s Austin Atkinson on Tag Draws, Hunting Access, and Tradition

  Oct 2, 202653 min

  Hunting is more than the harvest. It’s the experiences, traditions, and opportunities we fight to preserve. What does it take to plan a dream hunt, build a lifetime of outdoor experiences, and protect the future of hunting? Austin Atkinson of Hunting Fool joins Kenya Link to share how he turned a lifelong passion for the outdoors into a career helping hunters pursue their biggest goals. From growing up in Arizona navigating Western hunting draw systems to guiding Dall sheep, brown bear, grizzly bear, and mountain goat hunters in Alaska, Austin has spent decades immersed in the hunting industry. Today, he wears multiple hats at Hunting Fool, helping hunters navigate preference points, draw odds, tag applications, outfitter options, and the logistics that make big-game hunts possible. Austin breaks down how to build a strategic hunting plan without wasting years or money chasing the wrong tags. He also shares why introducing kids to hunting, wild game, and time outdoors matters more than trophy size, and what it means to measure success through shared experiences. The conversation takes a broader turn toward hunting access and conservation, exploring threats to hunting opportunities, the importance of constitutional protections for hunting and fishing, and why hunters, anglers, bowhunters, and rifle hunters must work together to protect their traditions. Whether you're planning your first Western elk hunt or pursuing a once-in-a-lifetime sheep tag, this conversation offers practical insight into making the most of every opportunity.

  Episode 62 - Colorado’s Right to Hunt and Fish Debate: Conservation, Economics, and Misinformation

  Sep 25, 202629 min

  A new Colorado study puts hunting, fishing, conservation, and economic impact under the microscope. The conversation between Kenya Link and Travis Thompson digs into Colorado’s ongoing debate over the constitutional right to hunt and fish, with a focus on conservation, outdoor recreation, and the economic role of hunters and anglers. They discuss a recent Common Sense Institute event examining the economic contributions of hunting and fishing, including the businesses, jobs, travel, and local spending connected to outdoor recreation. The discussion then turns to Colorado Initiative 302, which would establish a constitutional right to hunt, fish, and take fish and wildlife while identifying hunting and fishing as preferred methods for responsibly managing wildlife populations. The measure is headed to Colorado voters in November 2026 and requires 55% approval because it would amend the state constitution. Thompson and Link also walk through several arguments circulating around the proposal, including questions about “traditional methods,” the role of out-of-state organizations, and whether existing statutory protections already provide sufficient safeguards. They explain how supporters interpret those issues and point listeners toward the broader North American Model of Wildlife Conservation, wildlife management, and the relationship between hunting, fishing, habitat, and conservation funding. For hunters, anglers, conservationists, and anyone interested in Colorado’s outdoors, the conversation provides context for understanding the policy debate and the arguments surrounding it.

  Episode 61 - The Fight to Protect Hunting and Fishing in Colorado

  Sep 18, 202650 min

  Hunting’s future depends on informed hunters willing to stand up before opportunities disappear. Mia Anstine grew up hunting in rural Colorado, but her path into the outdoor industry has taken her far beyond the mountains. As a hunter, guide, writer, educator, podcaster, and conservation advocate, she has spent years helping people understand not only how to hunt and fish, but why those opportunities matter. Mia shares the experiences that shaped her passion, from helping her uncle harvest his first bull elk to taking her daughter into the woods as a young child. She also explains how mentorship can bring more women and families into hunting while building a deeper understanding of wildlife and conservation. The conversation turns toward one of the biggest issues facing Colorado hunters today: the effort to constitutionally protect the right to hunt and fish. Mia breaks down why science-based wildlife management matters, how misinformation can influence public opinion, and why hunters cannot afford to remain on the sidelines. Listeners will also hear practical advice for becoming better advocates, educating non-hunters, finding mentors, prioritizing safety, and explaining the role hunters play in conservation without turning every conversation into a political fight. Mia’s message is straightforward: hunting and fishing are worth protecting, but protecting them requires hunters to participate.

  Episode 60 - Protecting Hunting and Fishing Rights Through Colorado’s Western Heritage with Christine Koeppen

  Sep 11, 202644 min

  What happens when hunters stop reacting and start protecting their way of life before the next fight? Christine Keppen joins Hunt Fish Freedom for a wide-ranging conversation about hunting, hounds, horses, ranching, conservation, and the fight to protect Colorado’s Western way of life. A lifelong Colorado native, cowgirl, hunter, houndswoman, mother, and agricultural media professional, Keppen offers a firsthand perspective on what it means to live a lifestyle increasingly caught between growing development, political pressure, and changing public perceptions. The conversation digs into the fight surrounding Colorado’s Proposition 127 and what it taught hunters about the importance of defending every method of hunting, from mountain lion hunting with hounds to waterfowl hunting, bird dogs, and fishing. Keppen explains how the Colorado hunting community rallied together, educated the public, and built new connections between people who may have never considered themselves part of the same fight. The group also explores the push for a constitutional right to hunt and fish, drawing lessons from Florida and discussing how proactive protections could change the way sportsmen respond to future threats. Along the way, Keppen shares why science-based wildlife management matters, how hunters can have productive conversations with non-hunters, and why simply talking to people outside your normal circle may be one of the most effective forms of conservation advocacy. At its core, this is a conversation about family, food, stewardship, Western heritage, and making sure future generations still have the opportunity to hunt and fish.

  Episode 59 - Colorado’s Hunting Heritage Under Pressure with Adam Welbon

  Sep 4, 202645 min

  Colorado’s hunting future may depend on whether sportsmen stop taking their outdoor heritage for granted. Colorado has a deep hunting tradition, but keeping that tradition alive takes more than time in the field. Adam Welbon joins Kenia Link to talk about growing up in Colorado, learning to hunt through DIY public land adventures, and why sheep hunting has become his passion. Fresh off a successful Dall sheep hunt, Adam also shares what he has learned through his work with the Rocky Mountain Bighorn Society and why wildlife conservation requires far more than simply writing a check to a nonprofit. The conversation digs into the connection between hunting, fishing, wildlife management, habitat, and the funding generated by sportsmen. Adam explains how hunting and fishing dollars support conservation projects and why hunters should understand the responsibility that comes with being consumptive users of wildlife. The discussion also turns toward Colorado’s ongoing fight over constitutional protections for hunting and fishing. Adam explains why he believes hunters and anglers cannot assume those opportunities will always exist, why Colorado’s wildlife professionals need room to manage wildlife based on science, and why sportsmen outside Colorado have a stake in what happens there. From bighorn sheep and elk hunting to black bear and whitetail plans, this is a conversation about the future of Western hunting, the importance of mentorship, and what it means to pass an outdoor heritage on to the next generation.
