EP 266: Wapiti Wednesday with Chris Heilman




The Rich Outdoors show

Summary: <br> Welcome to Wapiti Wednesday! Today I am joined by Chris Heilman of Arizona and we chat about Arizona bulls and bugling elk. Chris has a lifetime of chasing bulls in Arizona and it was fun to compare chasing bulls down there to some of the more northern states. We also talk about getting your kids into chasing elk and inspiring the next generation of little elk hunters.<br> <a href="https://backcountryfuelbox.com/"></a><br> This year I launched <a href="https://backcountryfuelbox.com/">Backcountry Fuel Box</a>, a monthly subscription box for backcountry meals, bars, snacks, gues, and all kinds of great new products you have probably never heard of.

Phelps game calls are the best diaphragms out there. Even if you have tried to use diaphragm calls in the past but couldn’t, give Phelps AMP frame calls a try they are hands down the easiest calls to learn on.
