On this episode of the Peter Panda Podcast, we’re gonna cut some lion tracks and dump the dogs with my good friend, mentor, and one of the most experienced houndsman alive today, Vern Smith. Mr. Smith has been one of the most influential men in my life. He’s the man who introduced me to lion hunting, hound dogs, and has single-handedly equipped me with most of my own backcountry knowledge and skills. Join us as we dive into a lifetime of lion hunting, outfitting, and raising a family in the mountains of Montana. Really we only scratched the surface on this one. Vern has more experiences and stories than we could possibly fit into one episode so I promise you’ll be hearing more from this legend down the road on this podcast.
