Jonathan Henshaw of Edinburgh, Scotland is a UK outdoorsman who until recently never really had the opportunity to hunt due to the tremendous obstacles, from land access to firearm access, facing UK conservationists who want to go afield. He then went for his first hunt, with former guest Arthur Petherbridge of the Wild Order no less, and talks with Robbie about his transition from non hunter to hunter, and all the emotion that goes along with it.
