New houndsman Aaron Kelly of Missoula, Montana joins Heath on this episode of The Journey. Aaron had the itch for a new adventure. As a life long hunter, he decided to research and work towards accomplishing the goal of being a houndsman. After building a pack of older dogs and training puppies, Aaron saw early success and was enjoying his journey, only to see his work and investment demolished by wolves. Aaron talks about the fateful day and the emotional impacts it had on him. He questioned whether to even continue. 
Heath and Aaron talk through it and listeners will see where Aaron is today. New houndsmen will be inspired by this story and seasoned veterans will be reminded of their own early struggles. This is a good reminder that we all start our journey with the first step. We all have trials that test our mettle. We all face forks in the road and have decisions to make. Aaron shares his story and Heath offers insight and mentorship.
