About Great Days Outdoors

Great Days Outdoors has been the premier destination for hunters and anglers looking for a comprehensive look into the outdoor lifestyle since 1997. Our stories are crafted by dedicated journalists who live, eat, and breathe hunting, fishing, conservation, and land ownership. We prioritize firsthand experience in the field, on the water, and on the hunt above all else. Our mission is to provide engaging narratives of triumph in the wild and on the water, showcase the latest gear innovations, and inspire unforgettable adventures in locales both distant and familiar.

Since 1997, we have produced, and continue to produce a high quality monthly publication that we take great pride in. In 2018, we transitioned into a digital-first platform, expanding our reach and diversifying our coverage to encompass the broader spectrum of outdoor pursuits. The Great Days Outdoors Podcast network offers an ever-growing community of anglers a weekly resource for the local knowledge so important to finding success on the waters they frequent.

The real stars of Great Days Outdoors are the behind-the-scenes team of digital marketing experts, editors, and graphic designers led by our editor-in-chief, Joe Baya, alongside our executive editor, Butch Thierry. Our editorial team comprises seasoned experts residing across the nation, each specializing in various outdoor disciplines.

At Great Days Outdoors, we’re not just storytellers – we’re advocates for the outdoor lifestyle. We empower hunters and anglers to pursue their passions fervently and champion the conservation of the wild places and species they hold dear. Join us as we celebrate the thrill of the hunt, the excitement of the catch, and the enduring spirit of outdoor adventure.
