Podcast 157 - Hunting Rights and DNR issues w/ State Rep Tom Kunse - The Green Way Outdoors Podcast
Episode 159
Friday, 31 October, 2025
Join us as we talk to State Representative Tom Kunse from Michigan's 100th district to discuss current legislation that will impact outdoorsmen and women in the state. We cover: * Tom's background including his time in the Michigan House of Representatives * Ted Nugent's recent trip to Lansing with a concealed firearm and the security debacle that ensued (more people carry in the state house than you'd think) * Tom presents 2 bills currently being discussed that will impact how both the DNR and EGLE interact with private property. * The state of Michigan's DNR and whether additional funding will solve their problems * Why Michigan doesn't allow Sand Hill Crane hunting, except in certain circumstances and the moral issues this presents * Rules that only seem to negatively impact hunters without positively impacting wildlife (killing and wasting nuisance geese, antler point restrictions, banning the use of bait) * The difference between a wildlife department run by biologists vs. a department run as a police force * The waste of taxpayer dollars on frivolous lawsuits * Should the government shutdown impact the publics ability to purchase a hunting license * Recent increases in hunting pressure despite a decrease in hunter numbers * Many bills brought forth are made by people who don't understand hunting tradition and it's impact on the state which it is why it is so important that hunters get out and vote! * How to get involved in the decisions that are being made everyday that impact your way of life Thanks to State Rep Tom Kunse for joining us to discuss these important topics.
