This episode I chat with Scott Facer. We met years ago at Scheels when I helped him setup his first compound bow. Fast forward and he's out killing monster bucks with a bow. Scott and I chat about what it's like being a dad, how to motivate your kids and keeping them interested in hobbies. Scott tells the story of smashing a trophy buck on a limited entry draw tag this season. Enjoy!

Jason and I do our best to answer your questions from Instagram. During the podcast, I have all my horses tied to a highline for the first time. It goes about how you would imagine. We still do our best to drop some mule deer knowledge. Enjoy!

This is a solo episode I ripped off on the way to my first scouting trip of the 2024 hunting season, specifically focusing on scouting season. Killing a big buck and killing a big buck on purpose are two different things, I'm finding. It's my main focus lately and one big accomplishment I haven't done many times. Good luck this summer!
