## Resource

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. Topics Covered: ​Hunting pheasants with Golden Retrievers ​The inspiration behind Cackle Clothing Company ​The company's first Pheasant Fest experience ​Getting youth excited about the outdoors ​Raising gamebirds for summer training Shop Cackle Clothing Company Proud Sponsors: Gundog Central Ballad of the Bird Dog
