About this listen

Today’s episode is one of those conversations that feels more like sitting around a tailgate after a long hunt than recording a podcast. Tony and I get into all the stuff most folks don’t ever say out loud—the weird mix of privilege and pressure in modern hunting, what ‘authenticity’ even means anymore when everything online looks perfect, and how easy it is to forget what actually matters in this whole deal. We swap some stories about blown opportunities, the headaches of losing access and trying to scratch out a hunt on public, and the kind of hunts that shape you—especially the ones where nothing comes easy. We get into family hunts, the pull of different landscapes, and what it looks like to reevaluate your goals after a few seasons that didn’t go the way you planned. It’s raw, honest, and exactly the kind of conversation I think hunting needs more of. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM PODCAST 469 Authenticity matters more than ever in a digital world full of curated hunting content. Access—both private and public—shapes nearly every part of a hunter’s experience and opportunity. Missed chances and lost hunting ground take an emotional toll, but they’re also part of what makes the journey meaningful. Financial privilege and trophy-driven expectations can distort what real hunting success looks like. Family hunts and genuine time outdoors provide the fulfillment that social media can’t replicate.
