Episode 58: Cackle Clothing Company

<p><strong>This week's guests are Brooks Maurer and Skyler Wenninger, two Minnesota educators, coaches, bird hunters, dog owners, and entrepreneurs who have turned a shared passion into a growing outdoor brand. Brooks grew up hunting behind retrievers across central Minnesota and now balances life as a PE teacher, coach, husband, father, and bird hunter in Luverne. Skyler, a former college baseball player and fellow educator, came into hunting from a different path but has become equally passionate about the upland lifestyle. As brothers-in-law married to sisters, the two teamed up to launch Cackle Clothing Company in 2024, blending their love of hunting, dogs, storytelling, and creative design into a unique brand. From raising pheasants and chukars for dog training to filming hunts and building a business together, they're creating a community centered around birds, dogs, and the outdoors.</p><p>Topics Covered:</p><ul><li>​Hunting pheasants with Golden Retrievers</li><li>​The inspiration behind Cackle Clothing Company</li><li>​The company's first Pheasant Fest experience </li><li>​Getting youth excited about the outdoors</li><li>​Raising gamebirds for summer training</li></ul><p></strong><a href="https://www.cackleco.com/"><strong>Shop Cackle Clothing Company</strong></a><strong></p><p><br></p><p>Proud Sponsors:</p><p></strong><a href="https://gundogcentral.com/"><strong>Gundog Central</strong></a><strong></p><p></strong><a href="https://www.balladofthebirddog.com/"><strong>Ballad of the Bird Dog</strong></a><strong></p><p><br></p>
