Text the show!Bruce McGlenn is the founder and lead instructor for Human Nature Hunting, a hunting school designed to teach newcomers, instill a connection to our past heritage, and create stewardship in the community by being an active participant in our ecosystem. For those who never grew up in a hunting family, getting into hunting can be a massive hurdle to overcome. Between navigating regulations, gear, and acquiring the skills to not only pursue wild game but then care for it the right way, hunting can no doubt be overwhelming early on. Traditionally, if you want to learn how to hunt, you’d either have to find someone who would teach you or go it alone and figure it out on your own, but Bruce has created a third option. For those on the fence about hunting, curious about the activity, but have nowhere to start, I think this interview with Bruce will be helpful. His approach is sincere and genuine and I think there are a lot of people who could benefit from a mentor like Bruce. His insight and ability to self-reflect are top-notch and it was a pleasure getting to know him on this episode.Show Notes and LinksIntroductionsBruce’s backstoryHow a hunting school idea took rootsHow an in-person hunting school worksWhat’s in the course and what days look likeCommon barriers to entry to huntingHow processing an animal connects you Thoughts on the modern representation of huntingBruce’s hunting journals and how they’ve changed over the yearsOn Bruce’s Dads approach to bringing him outdoorsSolo vs. group hunting dynamicsHow to bridge the gap between hunters and non-hunters How to followup with Glenn and Human Nature Huntinghttps://www.humannaturehunting.com/https://www.instagram.com/humannaturehunting/https://www.facebook.com/huntingschool/https://humannaturehunting.substack.com/Support the showThanks for listening!
