PODCAST

Australian Hunting Backcountry

As the name suggests, the podcast is focusing on backcountry hunting, not only in Australia and New Zealand, but anywhere else overseas where great adventures exist. I want to bring a podcast that explores gear, places and hunting opportunities, lived experiences, different perspectives and share the passion that people have for hard earned hunts. I will also bring Australian and small businesses to the front, so listeners are exposed to some of the smaller or niche providers out there that support

Australian Hunting Backcountry ·

2026/10/04

I am joined by my friend Henk from Crispi Aus-NZ to talk about the changes to the Crispi lineup for 2026. Henk very kindly provided me with a pair of the Futura PWR to use in NZ earlier this year and after spending a month in them on 3 seperate hunts I am keeping them. There may be some new products coming out and I'm advocating for a line of boots for female hunters but if you do have smaller feet, definitely look at the Future CX.As you all know, I've become a big fan of the many uses the

Australian Hunting Backcountry ·

2026/06/06

4 of us ventured into the NZ west coast wilderness to hunt a tahr ballot block. This was my first time hunting with Jesse and Brando and I don't think I've ever laughed as much.

Despite some really challenging times, we all came out the other side of it and were planning our trip back before we'd even finished the chopper ride.I really want to thank everyone that has reached out to me so far with questions and comments.

A passionate and, self-described, late onset hunter, Rob and I go down a few rabbit holes but eventually get around to chatting about the book.Having read it myself, this is something I wish I'd had when my kids were little.The book (and future
