403 Successful Out of State Hunting with Blake Hamby
I met today's guest back in September when we were both speaking at an event in Cartersville, Georgia. After hearing him speak, I knew I wanted him on the show. His name is Blake Hamby. Blake says, he has always had a passion for hunting. He attended Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College for a year in 2008 as a Wildlife Management major. After that, he worked as a Wrangler, guiding people on horseback at the 320 Guest Ranch in Big Sky, Montana for a couple of years. He then returned home and began guiding deer and hog hunts in Southern Illinois and South Alabama for a while, before deciding it was time to settle down and pursue a job that provided a living wage.
After marrying his wife, they launched a small apparel line called Southern Longbeards. Together, they started and ran their local NWTF Chapter for six years. Currently, he works in Sales at Three Way Campers in Marietta, Georgia, a position he has held for nearly ten years. He and his family are also deeply involved in their small church in downtown Adairsville, Georgia. Additionally, he helps coach his sons in baseball and football.
Blake is also a successful Out of State hunter. Traveling to several states to hunt and he shares with us some of his keys to success in doing so. As we discussed, hunting out of state on your own is not difficult with some key scouting, planning and the desire to make it happen.
