The Ozark Podcast

James Brandenburg is the President of the Arkansas Chapter of Backcountry Hunters & Anglers. BHA serves as the voice for our wild public lands, waters, and wildlife. In this episode we talk about what’s going on in the state of Arkansas as it relates to BHA focused efforts and specifically talk about how many thousands of public acres are actually inaccessible or landlocked in Arkansas due to the bordering private properties and what BHA is doing about it.

We also talk about Black Bear Bonanza coming up on March 4th at the Benton County Quail Barn. The event is sponsored by onX as well as Umarex, Vortex, and many other vendors. Clay Newcomb will be there recording a live episode for Bear Grease podcast, bear biologist and our friend Myron Means (ep. 43) will be there, Dr. Devin Pettigrew will be there to discuss atlatls and ancient hunting techniques and more special guests all to celebrate the success of black bear in our state and the natural resources we all enjoy. Also if you want to meet and chat with us, we’re planning to be there too! Open to the public, get your tickets in advance here -> https://www.backcountryhunters.org/black_bear_bonanza_2023 .

The Ozark podcast sits down with men and women from the Ozarks who have a passion for the outdoors. Our aim is to listen, learn, and pass along their knowledge and experiences to help you become a better outdoorsman.
