Deeply moved by The Sacred Art of Hunting by James A. Swan, your host - Philippe - shares why this book inspired the podcast. We read the personal account of a waterfowl biologist's religious experience hunting snow geese, followed by a stirring tale of trauma healed on a moose hunt. While future episodes will focus on our guests, in this first episode, Philippe shares his story of escaping New York City to become a man & a hunter in the Blue Ridge Mountains. His story culminates with his first winter attempting to fur trap & the harrowing first encounter with a trapped raccoon that left him rattled for weeks. [Not a kid-friendly episode.
