In today’s episode, we’re proud to have not only a representative of Savage Arms but also a representative of a rapidly growing market within the firearms industry – women who hunt! Beth Shimanski is an extremely accomplished hunter who has a load of experience within the hunting sphere of the firearms industry and today she shares with Pete some of her passions, what she likes about a hunting rifle and some of the things coming down the pipeline from Savage Arms in 2024. In addition to that, Beth and Pete also talk about the rapidly growing demographic of women who are now participating in hunting and shooting sports, and how she aspires to be a great ambassador for that and the Savage brand.
