Listen Later

Ryan sits down with Wyoming-based hunter and HuntQuarters co-founder Matt Tillotson for a raw, wide-ranging conversation on high-country discipline, mental toughness, and the real grind behind consistent success in the field.

Matt shares the backstory behind launching HuntQuarters, a consulting platform for Western hunters that offers local, boots-on-the-ground insights across states like Wyoming, Idaho, and Utah. From working through target panic to harvesting two exceptional bucks in a single season, Matt opens up about the relentless preparation required physically, mentally, and emotionally to perform when it matters.

Together, Ryan and Matt dive deep into the psychology of the hunt, the value of discomfort, and how self-discipline forged in the mountains spills over into every part of life. This one isn’t just about filling tags it’s about becoming harder to kill, harder to stop, and more equipped for anything life throws your way.

🏹 5 Key Takeaways:

The Mind Will Break Before the Body -Matt and Ryan dive into how your brain sets artificial limits and how learning to push past that “regulator” is key in both hunting and life.

Success Starts with Self-Awareness - At HuntQuarters, Matt customizes advice based on personality types. Whether you’re a marathoner or new to discomfort, success starts by knowing your own limits and strengths.

Two Bucks, One Breakthrough - Matt harvested two great bucks in 2023 but the real win was overcoming years of target panic. His Wyoming shot at 60 yards in wind was a personal turning point.

Training Transforms Lives - From back spasms to IT band pain, both Matt and Ryan share how putting on a heavy pack and embracing the suck has transformed their bodies and their confidence.

Hunting is a Life Upgrade - For both men, the pursuit of hunting has reshaped their discipline, fitness, family life, and mindset. The side effects? Lower cholesterol, tighter pants, and a sharper edge in every area of life.
