If anyone caught his show tonight He was hunting Mules and Elk in Colorado
His parting shot on the side of a mountian And looked into the camera and right into my eyes
He talked about what hunting means at this stage in his life and how many years he could still do it and the quality of his hunts And why it was important
I was moved to say the least thinking about my buddy's who are gone and missed hunts at this time they missed especially my Bud Scott known as SSB here on the Fire, fishing Buds Timmy and CW guys who went too early and I miss talking about the hunt or fishing trip and sharing a Busch Light and some fresh Saginaw Bay Walleye
It's a short run boys and Girls let's enjoy the heck out of it
Kyle really nailed it. I was moved to say the least

Didn’t find it online but the local PBS affiliate is replaying it a couple times over the next week. Quick search of their site and the DVR was set.

I left MI 15+ years ago. I'd forgotten about Kyle Randall and his Wilderness Journal show. From what I remember he had one of the better shows. I vaguely remember some of the last Mort Neff shows, but mostly Fred Trost. Also recall couple WI based shows that would play locally in SW MI. They were less polished than current day "hunting" shows. But also a lot more authentic.

I bet you could find this show on YOUTUBE Thats how my kids usually watch MI Outdoors they usually seem to be somewhere else when its broadcast
Ironically Kyle looks a bit relaxed (not sure how else to say it) but he is a pretty decorated special forces guy. Of course I dont know his full story but I understand its quite impressive.
I had seen him in one of my boat dealers recently and I commented on his muley rifle shot at the end of his show (its impressive to say the least) He said to me with a smile" the US Gov taught me how to do that" we both laughed I knew exactly what he was saying
Ironically SSB was fishing the West side of the state, Lake Michigan late summer years ago and a guy was walking down the dock asked if he had room and jumped on the old Amberjack (Scott fished the heck out of that boat) they went fishing and Scott said they had a ball, they never met before that

Used to be that if you donated a certain amount of $ to pbs for his show, he’d send you a WJ ball cap with your name on it. Wife, kids and I still have ours. I’ve spoken to him at events. He’s the real thing. Good people, too.

Very moving but it's a shame he wasn't crying about the governor the people of Michigan elected. Or the guy in the white house the people of Michigan helped get elected.

I remember Mort neff I go back as far as Fred Trost. I looked forward to that show as a kid in the 80’s and watching his hunting and fish reports from around the state pre internet. I’ll be out this afternoon chasing pheasants with the dog.

I hear you, Hank. I've looked at the map, if the entirety of those areas went all blue, it wouldn't matter, assuming the other areas went all red. My point is, that there is a lot of pink in Michigan.
