Some hunts are about the woods. Others are about the journey a man takes to get there. Samuel, a 33-year-old military veteran from West Virginia, has worn a lot of hats—soldier, coal broker, business consultant, TV show founder, and now co-host of Hunt Life with his wife. But at his core, he’s still the kid who picked up a BB gun at four years old and never put it down.

In this episode, he talks with Mitchell about what it means to chase the North American Super Slam—29 big game species across the continent—and the price, both financial and physical, that comes with it. From bow malfunctions in Illinois to running ridge lines in New Zealand, Samuel shares hunts gone wrong, lessons from his grandfather, and the grit it takes to keep pushing forward.

The two dive into heated debates on cell cameras, drones, and hunting ethics, trade stories on Matthews bows and gimmicky gear, and laugh over those embarrassing “what just happened” moments every hunter has. But through it all, Samuel’s message is simple: surround yourself with people who get it, keep your priorities straight, and never forget why you started.

This isn’t a conversation about fame or trophies. It’s about legacy, hard-earned wisdom, and the hunt that never really ends.
