Episode #231 Hand-Carved Faith: Mike Marino’s Decoy Art and Testimony
Mike Marino of Marino Decoys joins Elliott to share how a kids pastor fell in love with carving and turned high density cork and tupelo heads into functional art that hunts. Mike walks through his full process from pattern and bandsaw to glass eyes and paint, why cork still floats after a stray pellet, and how he creates working urn decoys that hold a dog’s ashes and even shells. He talks species he carves and hunts, goldeneye addiction on frozen reservoirs, first place ribbons at the Colorado State Fair, and the “Just One More” mission behind his brand. Elliott and Mike also swap notes on cooking divers, raising kids in the blind, and why faith brings real freedom.
