In this episode of the Soul Summit Podcast, co-host Heidi Stout sits down with Hunter McWaters from The Hunters Quest. Hunter, the host and producer of The Hunters Quest podcast, YouTube channel, and show on the Sportsman Channel, shares his journey from television production and Christian news to full-time ministry. Inspired by a hunting trip to Alaska, he launched his podcast to explore the spiritual aspects of hunting, which has since evolved into a successful YouTube channel and TV show.

Originally from the East Coast, Hunter talks about his first western hunt in Alaska and how it ignited his passion for western hunting. He shares numerous field experiences and lessons learned, emphasizing self-reflection and the significance of e-scouting for out-of-state hunts.

Heidi and Hunter discuss the importance of physical training, testing gear in real-life situations, going off the beaten path, and the need for patience and seizing opportunities in both hunting and life.
