"His dedication to sharing knowledge and promoting safety has earned him a strong following within the hunting community."
Kurtenbach and hunting buddy Joe Delabarrera run a YouTube channel with step-by-step tutorials on rope climbing methods, gear reviews, and safety practices. They also maintain a Facebook forum for hunters asking questions and sharing techniques.
