8: Drew Blake – Outdoor Guide for The Blind or Disabled

Drew Blake is the president of Guiding Eyes Outdoors, a foundation dedicated to giving the blind, disabled, military veterans, first responders, and children who have lost parents in service to our country and their communities the opportunity to explore the outdoors. With a long family history of hunting and fishing, Drew knows where to take anglers and hunters to places where they will have the fullest experience possible. Even his full-time job as an environmental officer keeps Drew immersed in the great outdoors where he hopes to bring his boys up with the same passion he has.   More ways to watch & listen at: https://www.greatoutdoorspodcast.com//post/7-dan-moore-hunting-isnt-a-hobby-its-a-lifestyle __ Topics 1:19 – Learning to Hunt from Dad 2:42 – Growing Up Pond Fishing to Large Boats Catching Striper and Catfish 3:41 – Camping On the Lake 4:58 – Missing The Perfect Turkey 8:29 – Taking Multiple Deer in a Day 10:12 – Reflecting on What Was Once Perfect Land 12:01 – Introducing Kids Slowly 13:12 – Short Attention Spans for Fishing 13:44 - Cooking Up Fish and Game 17:53 – Patients with Fishing for Kids from Fly Fishing to Trolling 21:04 – Hunting National Parks 22:20 – Hunting Invasive Animals 25:39 – Shooting a Predator That Can Come After You 28:16 – A Focus on Getting the Kids Outside 30:29 – Golfing 31:57 – Looking for Fish 32:36 – Seeing God in The Outdoors 35:00 - Guiding Eyes Outdoors 42:00 – Involving More Gold Star and Blue Star Kids 43:30 – Content with A Hunting and Fishing Life 44:08 - Conclusion   Shop: https://www.greatoutdoorspodcast.com/category/all-products   Drew Blake’s Socials: Guiding Eyes Outdoors: https://guidingeyesoutdoors.org/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/guidingeyesoutdoors Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guidingeyesoutdoors/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@guidingeyesoutdoors?lang=en
