On this episode of the Hunting Connection Podcast, I’m joined by Michael from Voice of the Hunter.

We dive into Michael’s hunting journey — from his very first hunt, to a long break away from hunting, and eventually finding his way back and getting stuck into it full boar!

We chat about his Voice of the Hunter YouTube channel, website and books, as well as his experiences with thermal hunting and some of the memorable hunts he’s been on.

A great chat covering hunting, getting back into the bush, sharing the experience with others and everything that comes with being a hunter.

After a couple of guest cancellations thanks to me being crook, there was only one bloke I could call to save the day—my good mate, Haydog!

It’s been over a year since he was last on the podcast, and this also marks our very first in-person episode recorded in the brand-new Hunting Connection studio shed.

As always, there’s no shortage of laughs as we catch up on everything Haydog’s been up to, the hunts he’s been on, a few of his classic misadventures, and we chat about our upcoming sambar hunting trip. Like every episode with Haydog, the conversation goes in every direction and the stories just keep coming.

If you’re after plenty of laughs, hunting yarns, and two mates talking absolute rubbish, this one’s for you.

Enjoy the return of the one and only—Haydog!

Ben is a passionate hunter, knife maker, and outdoorsman whose hunting adventures have taken him across Australia, Africa, North America, and South America in pursuit of an incredible range of game. We dive into some of his favourite hunts, unforgettable moments, the trophies he’s collected along the way, and the lessons he’s learned from hunting around the world.

Ben also shares how he continues to chase his passion for hunting while living with a neurological condition. Using a purpose-built three-wheeled hunting bike, he’s adapted to the challenges without letting them define what he can achieve. His determination and love for the outdoors are a testament to the fact that passion, resilience, and a positive mindset can overcome just about anything.

This is a great conversation packed with hunting stories, travel, adventure, and plenty of laughs that you won’t want to miss.
