Bowhunting Paths of the “Grey Whiskers”

from The Stickboys Podcast · host Dalton Lewis & Alan Altizer

This week friends Alan Altizer and Rob Burnham sit down to reflect on the paths bowhunting has taken each of them on throughout their lives. With over a hundred years of bowhunting experiences between them, these two share their very early years as kids with bows and arrows, then all the way to where they are today. And it is very apparent that the love for traditional bowhunting is stronger today than ever. This is not only a fun bunch of stories, but an outline of what is truly important, and how a young hunter can set goals and reach their dreams. Additionally, each shares their personal approaches on making the shot count when the opportunity presents itself. Although each have taken numerous species and impressive trophies, that is not what they define as success. Success is found in their love of bowhunting and sharing this passion. They may be old and grey but carrying a trad bow allows them to still be kids at heart.
