On this episode of the Adaptive Outdoorsman Podcast, presented by Trackchair, we welcome Terry Colley, creator of The Outdoor Amputee YouTube channel. Terry shares his journey as an amputee who has refused to let adversity keep him out of the outdoors. From fishing and kayaking to hunting and content creation, Terry has turned his passion into a resource that helps adaptive outdoorsmen discover new gear, techniques, and confidence in the field.
In today's episode, we discuss Terry's lifelong love for the outdoors, how The Outdoor Amputee YouTube channel evolved from documenting personal adventures into a platform dedicated to helping the adaptive community, and the rapid growth of adaptive outdoor technology. Terry shares his thoughts on prosthetics, stable fishing kayaks, 3D-printed adaptive equipment, and the importance of working with manufacturers to create products that are truly accessible. We also dive into memorable hunting stories, squirrel hunting, the role of e-bikes and drones in modern outdoor recreation, and Terry's vision for building a trusted resource where adaptive outdoorsmen can find information, inspiration, and support.
