EP 528: Dream Hunts Might Just Change Your Life with Tyson Olson

by

This week Tyson Olson is back on the show. Tyson is one of the people I surround myself to push me to be better. Tyson has been on the show a few times and is just one of those people who achieves at an extremely high level. In the last episode Tyson and I touched on his processes for dream boarding, a system that he uses to dangle they proverbial carrot in front of himself. Tyson does this at such a high level and then has been able to complete that quest 3 times. This is so powerful! I think this is so important and today we dive into the dream board both for life but also for hunting. For me the dream hunts have been as much or more of a driver to push me toward success than any material things. Tyson is so clear and concise with his plans and does a phenomenal job of accomplishing goals.

We also dive into his learning disabilities and how he changed that negative in his life to a positive. Tyson talks about how he never really let it get to him but when he found a way to flip the script it was a huge piece of his success story.

EP 527: The Zemlicka’s Family Hunt is on another Level

by

Lucas and Alishia are probably the most hardcore hunting couple I have ever met. They both get after it and there is rarely a day off work that they aren’t both in the mountains. When they go pregnant last year my wife and I joked that the baby better hit the ground running or it was going to get left behind.

I was curious how their lifestyle would change if at all with the introduction of their daughter. I can’t say that I am surprised that they both killed 6 point bulls this year and Lucas killed yet another giant. This podcast should give hope to you who are avid hunters and hope to have a Family. The Zemlicka’s should be a goal to live up toward.

by

What’s up beautiful podcast listeners. Today I am joined by Brad Luttrell of GoWild. Brad and I have been friends a long time, we work together on a non profit and we generally stay in touch about entrepreneurship and whats working and whats not. This week Brad and I dive into Gear and GoWilds pivot to offer gear on their platform. We talk about trends both out east and in the west. We talk about some of their growth through the pandemic and we talk about the censorship we are seeing across all social media toward the hunting industry.

We talk about possible outcomes and how creators can combat this moving forward. A super interesting podcast that bounces all over the spectrum. Really hope you enjoy!

EP 525: Season Update with Ben Guttormson

by

What’s up podcast listeners, this week Ben and I have our semi annual whiskey and catch up session to chat about how season has been going to include lessons learned. Ben and I actually linked up in the woods for 2-3 days and I actually go to watch ben put a stalk on a great bull that unfortunately did end with a dead elk.

For me season has been good, other than I hate hunting when it’s as hot as it has been all year. I intentionally set my Montana dates back this year to try and hit what seems to be a later rut with high temps. I still have had my best luck in Montana in the month of October. I took a few days off to catch up on work and hang out with the family but headed back out to the woods today to try to get lucky with this storm coming in.
