Dennis Stachewicz retired Army Tank Commander & owner of Aspen Thicket Grouse Dogs joins us Artwork

Cleave Outdoors

Hey, thanks for checking us out. This podcast channel is dedicated to all things upland & waterfowl. I once lived in the Big Bend of Florida, and fell in love with its double-edged sword scene of upland and waterfowl hunting. I was sandwiched between the Red Hills of Thomasville GA, known for its rich plantation history and bobwhite quail life, and the Gulf with its diverse waterfowl migration. Since then, my wife & I have moved near Statesboro GA and carried our passion and all we learned from "wing shooting" with us.

My wife & I enjoy spending time together in the outdoors with our dogs hunting and guiding, so we decided to change the podcast name to "Cleave Outdoors" based off of Gen. 2:24 where we are commanded to "cleave" to our spouse. Debbie and I adventure the hunting world together, so this podcast will not only bridge to gap of the upland & waterfowl life, but also share our time in it with you. We will talk birds, dogs, hunting style, history, etx. Click...listen.....share!
