Muttering Pines

About Muttering Pines

Join me on a (manly?) journey of passion and folly as I dig deeper into the world of hands on and the outdoors—chatting,,”experimenting, fumbling, and slowly (very slowly) getting better along the way. From hunting, ATVS, bushcraft basics and backyard brews, every episode is a blend of laughs, lessons, and a bit of buffoonery. Welcome to the forest of know-how, where every misstep makes for a good story. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy (https://acast.com/privacy) for more information.
