What a week. Encounters with a nice buck, a bear who seems to hate me, and some early-season beginner bow hunting mistakes you just can't make up. I mean, have you ever said: Why did I do that? Well, I did this week, and ironically, Dan did too. This week, bow hunting early season mayhem hit us right in the mouth. I think you're gonna like it.
On a more somber note, I would like to dedicate this episode to a dear friend of mine who served with me on ODA 535, Charlie Company, 1st Battalion, 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne). His name is Josh Rowson and he dedicated his life to this country, serving 27 years in the US Army, in both the 1st, 5th, and 19th Special Forces Groups. He had more combat tours than you can count. He was a warrior, a dear friend, husband, and father. Love you man. See you on the other side.
Then in the podcast, Dan and I answered a few listener questions about what bow or crossbow to get started with for turkey hunting. Which then made us go down the rabbit hole of to crossbow or not to crossbow? It is a debate that both Dan and I agree on. We are for hunters. We need more deer hunters as the overall hunting population is literally dropping year after year in the US and with all the anti-hunting groups out there, we all need to stick together. Enough on that.
I talk about my encounter with a buck last Friday morning and what I totally screwed up. This is a great lesson to learn, so you'll want to listen to this. Then I talk about my active scouting journey and how I managed the evening thermals to optimize the wind direction for my evening hunt.
The Dan digs into a pretty funny series of events that you just can't make up with some bad batteries, a few does and fawns, and his truck. You got to hear this one.
We've got all this and a lot more that will help any bow hunting beginner get better. You can definitely learn from our mistakes in this episode.
