Hello ZimmComm Fans:
Our latest ZimmPoll asked the question, Which vehicle do you prefer for hunting?"
Our poll results:
� None - 37%
� UTV - Utility Terrain Vehicle - 26%
� Other - 21%
� ATV - All Terrain Vehicle - 16%
Although off-road vehicles have become popular on farm and ranch settings there is nothing like putting some miles on your hunting boots. Our new ZimmPoll is now live and asks the question, "How do you show food thanks?" Do you extend your thanks to farmers or donate to the local food bank to show appreciation? Let us know.
Here are some interviews and audio from this week you might have missed:
