The idea of hunting different turkey species not only in different states...but different habitats...appeals to me GREATLY.

I always wanted to hunt elk as lifelong goal/bucket list hunt. One of my best friends from kindergarten moved out in Idaho and kept telling me I should try to come elk hunting. We had talked about it for years...but back in 2022, I had decided to save up and plan for a hunt in 2024. Add to that...I knew I needed to be fit. So, I started pushing hard in the gym...getting my weight down and building back my cardio/endurance.

I’d accumulated years of armchair knowledge just from being around Steve, reading viewer comments, and fielding questions for him. Eventually I got the chance to get out in the field and hunt myself.
