Hunt Quietly

The future of hunting is imperiled. More and more hunters are competing for limited numbers of licenses. Public land hunting is overcrowded, and private land hunting is increasingly unavailable to those unable or unwilling to pay for it. These are the dominant problems facing hunters today, and nobody in the hunting industry and hunting entertainment is talking about them. That is because they cause and even benefit from these problems, as do some hunting nonprofits. Join Matt Rinella and his guests as they rethink the future of hunting and implement steps to save our cherished pastime. Visit huntquietly.org to learn more.

The Hunt Quietly team conducted in-depth research into NWTF over the last several months.  This research uncovered widespread problems with their reporting.  NWTF grossly overreports the acres they conserve and the dollars they devote to their mission.   Evan Curtin, Nick Buckley, and Matt Rinella explain all of this and try to determine if these problems stem from corruption, incompetence, or both.  Hunt Quietly recommends against donating to organizations that do hunter recruitment, and NWTF does lots of that.  And in the case of NWTF, there are many additional reasons for Americans to spend their precious conservation dollars elsewhere.  A sincere thanks to David Fontenot, Chris Brewer, and Thomas Doyle for assisting  with research for this episode.
