    In this episode of the DUX Series, hosts Jimbo Robinson and David Schuessler sit down with Art Diaz, Community Manager for Banded Hunting Gear, to explore the evolution of one of the most recognizable brands in waterfowl — from its roots in Avery Outdoors and Greenhead Gear to its modern identity under the Banded name.

    Duck Science at Scale: AI, Satellites & the Future of Conservation (Ep 776)

    26/05/2026 | 44 min
    Waterfowl science is entering a new era — and Ducks Unlimited is right in the middle of it.
    In this episode, host Dr. Mike Brasher is joined by co‑host Dr. Jerad Henson and guest Dr. Patrick Donnelly, Research Scientist with Ducks Unlimited’s Western Region, for a deep dive into how emerging technologies are transforming the way we understand ducks, wetlands, and flyways.
    Patrick brings decades of experience from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, joint ventures, and academia, and now applies cutting‑edge tools like AI, cloud computing, GPS telemetry, remote sensing, and environmental DNA to answer some of the most important conservation questions at continental scales.
    In this episode, listeners will hear about:
    Patrick Donnelly’s journey from the Fish & Wildlife Service to Ducks Unlimited
    Movement ecology and why scale matters for migratory birds
    How GPS transmitters revolutionized waterfowl research
    Using satellite imagery to map wetlands across 40+ years
    “Functional wetland loss” and why water matters as much as land protection
    The role of snowpack, hydrology, and climate in western wetlands
    Disease risk, botulism, and crowding during molting periods
    Linking bird movements, habitat conditions, and time
    The Western Mallard Project and tracking 800 birds across the Pacific Flyway
    Sentinel and Landsat satellites explained in plain language
    Cloud computing and why conservation can now run at scale
    Using citizen‑science data (eBird) alongside satellite data
    New applications of environmental DNA (yes — duck poop)
    How AI helps identify patterns humans can’t see
    Training the next generation of conservation scientists
    Why this moment feels like a “second revolution” in waterfowl science
    This episode pulls back the curtain on how Ducks Unlimited is using modern science to maximize conservation return on investment, ensuring that every dollar delivers the greatest benefit for waterfowl now and into the future.

    ASCEND: The Truth About Hunting : Host Round Table, Real Stories & Lessons (Ep 775)

    21/05/2026 | 58 min
    What really happens behind the highlight reels of hunting and outdoor life?
    In this candid roundtable episode, Bethany, Adrienne, Erin, and Julia sit down to reflect on a full season of conversations, hunts, and hard-earned lessons. Instead of a single guest, this episode brings together the voices behind the podcast to unpack what stood out most from unforgettable guests and powerful community moments to the realities that don’t always make it onto social media. The group shares personal hunting stories, including first harvests, missed shots, and the emotional highs and lows that come with time in the field. From elk hunts in the mountains to first-time duck hunters finding their confidence, this episode highlights how growth often comes through failure, persistence, and shared experiences. They also dive into deeper themes: the rise of women in hunting, the importance of mentorship and communication, and how intentional time outdoors can restore balance in an otherwise fast-paced life. Whether it’s teaching beginners, navigating fear around firearms, or simply making time to get outside, the conversation emphasizes progress over perfection. Above all, this episode is a reminder that no one starts as an expert—and that the most meaningful moments often come from the messy, imperfect, real parts of the journey.
    In this episode, you’ll learn:
     Why storytelling and community have been the most impactful part of this season
     How women are building confidence and connection through hunting and outdoor skills
     The importance of communication when mentoring new hunters
     Real hunting experiences from missed shots to first harvests
     How social media can create unrealistic expectations (and why showing failure matters)
     Why beginners often struggle with fear, perfectionism, and information overload
     How small wins in the outdoors can be just as meaningful as a harvest
     The role of conservation and why new hunters (especially women) are essential to its future
     Practical tips for introducing someone new to hunting or shooting
     Why intentional time outdoors can improve mental clarity and overall well-being
    Follow along for more real conversations, outdoor stories, and insights from women shaping the future of hunting and conservation.
