164. CHAMOIS, ROEBUCK & SPAIN PRE-PRODUCTION w/ PEDRO AMPUERO
I am super stoked tp be headed to Spain in June to hunt Chamois and Roebuck with Pedro Ampuero. Several months ago Pedro invited me and when you get an opportunity like that, you say yes! I am looking forward to hunting both of these iconic European species, but until now I knew almost nothing about them. In this episode Pedro and I go over some of the basics of hunting these species, their habitats and characteristics. Towards the end of the episode we talk a little about logistics and pre-production. I hope you find this episode interesting. If you want to Hunt Spain, pleas let me know and I will help you get in touch with the right people.
