218 BEN RISING - Barometers, Cold Fronts, October 23rd, and Rule #1
About this episode
Ben's reputation in the whitetail world is no secret. With the many Boone and Crockett bucks to his credit, it's easy to see why hunters want to know more. Ben's dad started trapping and hunting with Ben when he was just a toddler. He credits his woodsmanship, deer and habitat knowledge to his father and the older generations of people who spent time with him outdoors. Ben has been in the forest industry since the age of sixteen and started his own logging business at the age of twenty. Ben now works as a forester/timber buyer for a local sawmill and as an outfitter for Wicked Ridge Outfitters.
