Episode 103: The Faithful Sportsman | 40 Years of Hunting, Faith, and Legacy in the Woods

In Episode 103 of the Wild Faith Podcast, we sit down with Al Quackenbush of The Faithful Sportsman to talk about a lifetime in the outdoors and the journey that led him to a faith-centered mission.

Al shares his story growing up in the Finger Lakes region of New York, learning to shoot a bow at nine years old, and harvesting his first whitetail at fourteen. From DIY hunting roots to building The SoCal Bowhunter, and eventually rebranding to The Faithful Sportsman after moving to Tennessee, this episode dives deep into the role faith, discipline, and family play in a hunter’s life.

We talk turkey hunting, DIY hunting mentality, mentorship, fatherhood, and what it truly means to be a faithful sportsman in today's world. Al also shares powerful stories from the woods along with his work serving others through the outdoors.

This was an incredible conversation and we’re already looking forward to having Al back on again.
