Imagine taking down two deer with a single shot or trekking through the African wilderness under the cover of darkness. Join us for an enthralling conversation with the multi-faceted Baker Leavitt, a man whose hunting tales stretch from the fields of Georgia to the savannas of Africa. We delve into his diverse career at Black Rifle Coffee, Kill Cliff, and Outsider, and also uncover his insights as a political consultant and entrepreneur. Baker shares some eye-opening statistics about licensed hunters who skipped voting in recent elections, stressing the huge impact civic engagement can have on not just the hunting community, but society as a whole.

Our journey begins with Baker’s early hunting days, filled with adventure and camaraderie. Hear the heartwarming story of his first hunting trip at 15, where he bagged two deer with a single shot and sparked a lifelong passion. Baker’s fascination doesn’t stop at hunting; it extends to Native American culture and arrowhead hunting. Africa's vast wilderness and rich history have always captivated him, offering unparalleled experiences and tales of redemption, like the gripping nighttime hunt in the African bush and the inspiring story of Eli, a man who found redemption after a stint in prison.

Baker’s hunting escapades are not just about the thrill of the chase but also about the lessons learned along the way. From a solo elk hunt in Utah to the complexities of trophy hunting and managing hog overpopulation, each story is a blend of raw emotion, excitement, and achievement. Baker’s narrative emphasizes the importance of introducing new hunters to the field and mastering fundamental skills.
