EP 552: Braxton McCoy – Hunting, Horses, and Life’s Challenges

June 2, 2022 by Cody Rich

This week we catch back up with Braxton McCoy. Braxton was on way back in 2019 where we chatted about his injuries, and his book The Glass Factory. Braxton is a thoughtful guy and you can follow him on twitter at @braxton. Be sure to check out the first podcast with him that I did to get his backstory here.

This week we catch up on our crappy bear seasons, we talk about his guiding career, and about some of his horse projects. Braxton talks about his growth in the last few years and what things he feels like he is still bad at. We talk about balancing risk and moving forward. A great conversation with a solid human. Enjoy.

EP 384: Braxton McCoy; Breaking Colts, War, Life, and Hunting

September 12, 2019 by Cody Rich

I first was introduced to Braxton McCoy via the Blood Origins Crew. They had just shot a video with Braxton and were telling me all about this fascinating character. They were not wrong, in this episode of the podcast Braxton and I bob and weave through more than a few rabbit holes like any good conversation, but in the end, it was one of those podcasts that make me really love doing the podcast.

Braxton is a Horse Trainer by trade, though he would struggle to make that claim himself. An average small-town guy who rode bulls as kid and joined the fight right after 9/11. Braxton was eager to kick some ass but on his first deployment was blown up and got a whole lot of life lessons real fast. After years of recovery and pushing himself past where doctors said he would ever be, Braxton fell back in love with what he was truly meant to do. Breaking horses is probably the last thing Braxton should really be doing but its what makes him happy.

I truly enjoyed this conversation and Braxton is one hell of a guy. To get the full story, please do me a favor and go buy his book The Glass Factory on his website braxtonmccoy.com. A story about a war hero and how to overcome your own challenges. I like the line “What I learned getting blown up so you don’t have to”. You will have to listen to the podcast to get the story behind that title.
