Welcome to the Huntback Country Podcast today.

This is episode number 322 and our guest is a listener of the show, Matthew.

He had quite a unique experience between graduating college with his master's degree and starting

his new career.

He volunteered for a summer to help a guide and outfitter on Montana and use that time

he spent to then essentially earn his way into a free elk hunt.

So we tell that story and much more.

I appreciated this story and Matthew's drive but also it was fun to hear behind the scenes

look about a guide and outfitting operation.

This all took place in the Bob Marshall Wilderness which as I'm sure you know is just a truly

wild remote and awesome place.

So I hope you guys enjoy this story.

As always if you have any questions, guess suggestions or topic suggestions for us you can

Right now here's this conversation with Matthew.

So real quick I'll just introduce myself.

I'm Matthew.

I work in Nashville.

I'm an auditor.

And I just like a few years ago I kind of got the edge to start hunting and luckily

now my now wife we were just dating at the time and her dad asked invited me to come

and a dove hunt with them and that just like trickle down and now I'm here.
