Hunt the West

#050 - Solo hunting has unique battles. Mentally and physically it can be a challenge. In this episode we talk about the time I got in trouble while I was alone and had to self-rescue using a satellite messenger, as well as some of the reasons why I think solo hunting is awesome.

This is a rerun from episode 10, but I'm running another giveaway similar to the one mentioned in this episode.

22 scope that I use:  https://amzn.to/2LAQHsl

This scope is actually surprisingly good for the price and application. I've been using it for years and it's held up great, and for only $50 including scope rings...I say it's a steal.
