With emotional urgency, they emphasize the necessity for sportsmen to become politically active to protect their cherished hunting pursuits. They underscore the implications of sidelining our impact on responsible wildlife management and the potential fallout of extremist groups disrupting proven methods.
Raising the call to arms, they offer solutions such as dedicating a minimum of eight hours a year to combatting the threats and advocating for North American wildlife. They express the dire consequences of failing to do so—the potential loss of the lifestyle and experiences dear to hunters.
This candid conversation challenges sportsmen supportive of the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation, reminding them to pledge their time and efforts to the cause influencing their outdoor recreation.

Insisting on the necessity for a united front against this extremism, our hosts stress the importance of upholding wildlife conservation methods and warning against the dangers of unscientific, ballot-driven initiatives.
In rallying their listeners, they make a heartfelt plea to stand up for what's right and ensure that animal rights need not become victims of misguided beliefs.

Saunter through the life stages of Andraya Grangroth as she shares the healing powers of Mother Nature.
This book is an inspirational memoir of an insecure girl healing into an independent woman, leaping past the multiple forms of childhood trauma to become an accomplished writer, author, small business owner, and western-hunting guide.
Growing up in a sheltered and strict household, this trauma was never addressed or brought to light. Her appreciation for the natural environment has held strong throughout her life, starting with the safe feeling of ferns in the dense Washington forest. This deep appreciation as a young child led to the realization of the healing powers of wild places, along with the growth that comes with these wild places.
Hunting rugged and remote terrain will test each person's mental and physical fortitude, distorting the prior image of themselves. What's Her Wild: An Untold Story depicts the mental and physical challenges of western hunting. Grangroth eloquently writes the stories of overcoming these challenges, leading to the growth of confidence as well as the successful and wholesome life she now lives. She tells her story so she can make a difference in the lives of others with similar trauma.
If you struggle with past trauma or lack the confidence to get into wild places, this book will change your thoughts and, most importantly, will change your attitude
