In this episode, we’re joined by Nathan and Steven, the brains (and hunters) behind the HuntProof App — a tool built by hunters, for hunters. These two outdoorsmen turned tech innovators give us a behind-the-scenes look at what inspired them to create the app, how it's evolved, and what’s coming down the pipeline.

The current features and real-world use from hunters in the field

What's next: new ideas, upcoming features, and community feedback

Nathan and Steven’s favorite hunts and hunting styles
