CRH Ep. 17 Lance Altherr - Archery Coues Deer, Bears, Border Stuff, and More.

06/24/24 • 130 min

I finally got my old friend Lance Altherr to stop by to record a podcast. I've known Lance for over 25 years and he has some great stories to tell. He is the guy I've been archery coues deer hunting with down by the border for the last couple years. He's killed a bunch of big bucks and bears in the Borderlands and shares some of his secrets for both. Lance is a former Border Patrol officer and is currently a BLM Special Investigator. (Bureau of Land Management not the other BLM!) So, he has some first hand stories to tell about what goes on at our southern border too.
This one is a little over two hours long, but there is some great info and some great stories, like when he treed a bear by barking like a dog while wearing nothing but his underwear! I hope you enjoy it and get some valuable info to help on your hunts. Bonus fishing stories at the end too.

Previous Episode

CRH Ep. 16 A Broken Heart and Guiding Backcountry Coues Deer Hunt.

It's been a long time again. So long I forgot what episode I was on. I said 15 in the podcast, but it is 16. This one kind of rambles a bit because I just had to get one done so I sat down without notes or a plan and hit record. There's been a lot going on around here with the biggest thing being that I had a "cardiac event". That story is intertwined with the recap of a rifle coues deer hunt I guided in November and a brief bit about my archery javelina hunting so far this month. There's a good tip hidden in the coues deer story so listen up.
I'm still amazed that I'm getting downloads every week even though I haven't made a podcast in four months. I'm going to try to be more reliable and regular. Hopefully about once a month. Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoy it.

Next Episode

CRH Ep. 18 Archery Deer and Much Much More with Lance Altherr.

This episode was recorded in Arizona archery deer camp with Lance Altherr. I waited a long time to publish it because I wanted to get him on again for the season wrap up, but we couldn't get together, so that will have to come in a separate episode. It will be worth listening to for sure! This episode covers a lot of ground! We caught up on how deer and bear season had been so far, archery deer quotas, our plans for more hunting this season, bear hunting, hunting in New Zealand, more border talk, some fishing talk, and I probably talked too much about my recent trip to Australia. As always there's some good info in here if you pay attention and listen closely. See if you can catch where I edited out a top secret slip. Thanks for listening!
