Some people meet in coffeeshops. Others meet in the blinds.

Hunting isn’t just a physical act. It more easily reduces to a social experience than to the act of potentially killing an animal. Jeff Prizl joins Joel, Danielle, and recurring guest Ellie Lawton-Smoller of First Hunt Foundation‘s Share the HERitage. Jeff is the deer program specialist at Wisconsin DNR. When you ask him to describe his job, he mentions the math involved in determining harvest number for the year. He’ll also talk about learning the biology of the animals that we hunt. But the most important element of his job is to learn and engage with the social aspect of hunting. Joel, Danielle, and Ellie wrapped up a very successful turkey hunt immediately before recording this episode of Raised in Wisco. However, it didn’t all go as planned… They did however secure plenty of turkey meat to make their TWO shared recipes of the week! You’re gonna gobble ’em up! Guests: Ellie Lawton-Smoller, Jeff Pritzl
