The Future of Duck Hunting
This week on the Duck Gun Podcast, I'm joined by Brad Heidel, Executive Director of the Wisconsin Waterfowl Association, to talk about the current state of duck hunting and conservation in Wisconsin. We dive into what the Wisconsin Waterfowl Association actually does for hunters, the habitat work happening across the state, some of the biggest challenges facing Wisconsin waterfowlers, and where Brad believes duck hunting is headed in the years ahead. We also get into some of the issues being debated by Wisconsin hunters, including hunting opportunities, access, conservation, and the role hunters need to play in protecting the future of the sport. Finally, we talk about the upcoming 2026 Waterfowl Hunters EXPO in Oshkosh. I'll be attending this year with the Duck Gun Wild Seasonings booth, and Brad gives us a look at what hunters can expect from the Expo and why it's become a gathering place for the waterfowl community. Whether you hunt Wisconsin every weekend or simply care about the future of waterfowl hunting, there's plenty in this conversation for you. Hunt Hard. Eat Well.
