SCI: First For Hunters Podcast
Safari Club International’s “First For Hunters” Podcast
This is the front line when it comes to hunting advocacy and conservation.
Hosted by Craig Kauffman, the official podcast of Safari Club International cuts through the noise and goes straight to the issues that impact hunters, outfitters, and conservationists around the world. SCI was built to defend the freedom to hunt and safeguard wildlife for future generations — and this show carries that mission into every conversation.
No fluff. No recycled headlines.
Each week, we break down the legislation, policies, and global decisions shaping the future of hunting. From international regulations and conservation battles to industry news, boots-on-the-ground perspectives, and insider updates from SCI — this is where hunters stay informed and ready.
If it affects your rights, your opportunities, or the future of wildlife, it’s talked about here.
This is more than a podcast.
It’s a pulse check on the state of hunting worldwide, and WE ARE First For Hunters.
