Listen Later

This week on the Just Hunt Podcast, we're joined by Erik Barber — writer, outdoorsman, and Content Manager at Vortex Optics. A die-hard public land hunter from Wisconsin, Erik shares his journey from chasing whitetails in the big woods of Northern Wisconsin to working with legends like Bill Winke at Midwest Whitetail, and eventually landing his dream role in the outdoor industry.


In this episode, we dive into:


🦌 Midwest Whitetail tales – pot pies, being broke, and getting stuck (and unstuck)


🏹 How struggle builds character in the outdoors and beyond


🌲 Saddle hunting vs. ultralight hang-ons – what Erik prefers and why


🐻 Missing a Boone & Crockett bear and what he learned from it


🏔️ Alaska adventures – the best way to experience the Last Frontier


🦃 Wisconsin turkey hunting – enjoying the golden days while they last


Whether you’re a seasoned public land hunter or just getting started, this episode is packed with laughs, lessons, and inspiration from one of the most down to earth people in the hunting industry, "Slingin Rick".
