In this episode of the TFB Behind the Gun podcast, Scott Ergas of Petersen's Hunting joins the conversation to relive their recent weekend at the NRL Hunter Leupold Relentless Rifleman match. Today, Scott and I speak to the practical realities of North American hunting in the modern age, from a lifetime of field skills and heavily tested gear to the mindset that defines success at a match or on a hunt. Scott shares his thoughts on how precision rifle competitions like NRL Hunter sharpen hunters while building a bridge to the next generation and also shares some personal stories of hunting with his daughter and fond memories from his own childhood. Please give Scott a warm welcome to the show!
