Very few people in the world are popular enough to be known by one name: Madonna, Cher, and Bono to name a few. In the hunting world there are even fewer. The exception: T-Bone! Travis “T-Bone” Turner is as good of a guy as you will ever meet. His time as a personality with Bone Collector and Realtree helped introduce the world to the archery guru who is full of knowledge and laughs.  Take a step back in time with Lance and Noel as they dive into what made T-Bone fall in love with the outdoors. They’ll talk favorite squirrel recipes, how we can inspire others to keep the hunting heritage alive, archery dreams and so much more.  Follow T-Bone- Facebook: www.facebook.com/tboneoutdoors/ Instagram: www.instagram.com/tboneoutdoors/ Website: www.tboneoutdoors.com   Be sure to keep tabs with the gang on social media: The Hunting Heritage- Facebook: www.facebook.com/thehuntingheritagepodcast Instagram: @thehuntingheritagepodcast   Noel- Facebook: www.facebook.com/gandyoutdoors Instagram: @noelgandy   Lance- Facebook: www.facebook.com/lance.cornelius.3 Instagram: @no_insta_lance   The First Gen Hunter Facebook: www.facebook.com/first.gen.hunter Instagram: @first.gen.hunter

In December 2008, 21-year-old Kyle Kamp weighed 270 pounds and experienced chest pains while opening Christmas presents. That moment sparked a major life change. Over the next year, he lost more than 140 pounds and became deeply invested in understanding nutrition and exercise. Frustrated by conflicting information online, Kyle pursued a degree in Dietetics, completed his residency, and became a Registered Dietitian in Idaho. There, he discovered how proper nutrition fuels outdoor performance, especially in the mountains he grew to love. Kyle founded V2P to cut through nutrition fads and misinformation. His goal is to deliver science-based guidance that helps people reach their physical and performance goals—especially in demanding outdoor pursuits.   Topics covered include: Kyle's transformative weight loss that led to a passion for outdoor pursuits Well-rounded nutritional science How extreme, overly exhausting training isn't as helpful as we think Proper fuel during demanding hunts Training that prepares us for the rigors of hunting   Connect with Kyle: ⁠https://www.v2pnutrition.com/⁠ ⁠https://www.instagram.com/v2pnutrition/?hl=en   Check out the First Gen Hunter Website Follow First Gen Hunter Instagram: @first.gen.hunter Facebook: @first.gen.hunter Follow Alex: @east2westhunts_alex  Follow East2West Hunts: @east2westhunts Follow Caleb: @calebleedrake  Follow Noel: @noelgandy Follow Ryan: @theuplandsocial   Support First Gen Hunter by shopping at the following partners:   East2West Hunts Use promo code: firstgen10 = 10% off any purchase Old Barn Taxidermy Tell Them The First Gen Hunter Podcast Sent You!
