Pure Michigan Hunt Winner - FULL INTERVIEW
Subscribe:
Bob Beaudry, one of three Pure Michigan Hunt winners for 2023, was the first Yooper ever drawn for the PMH in the 13 years the program has been going. Pure Michigan Hunt winners receive tags for everything you can hunt in Michigan - elk, bear, spring and fall turkey, antlerless deer, and the first pick at a managed waterfowl hunt area. Bob filled ALL of his tags last year. You couldn’t ask for a better recipient of the PMH. Bob’s gratitude for winning, his motivation to fill every single tag, his generosity, and he's a veteran.
