On this episode of The Western Rookie Dan talks with Jeremy Koerber from Fit To Hunt about becoming a better hunter, father, spouse and person through mental, physical, financial and spiritual fitness.

Fit to Hunt’s mission is to provide outdoorsmen and women with the proper training and fitness programs to take on ANY adventure. Fit To Hunt programs were forged by human instinct and the desire to press on, built by personal trainers that are there to help you achieve success. Jeremy’s desire is to prepare people for the hunt of a lifetime and to hunt for a lifetime. Jeremy has been in the fitness industry since 1997 but hunting has been a lifetime affair for him. Jeremy grew up watching his grandfather and uncle pack the camper shell of a pick-up with sleeping bags & gear to head for an outdoor quest (and being a little ticked off when told he was too young to go). Jeremy’s wife can thank his grandpa for making her a hunting widow every Fall. “Grandpa never forced hunting on me. He asked if I wanted to go with him and most importantly, gave me his full attention; I have mirrored Grandpa’s passion and habits as I introduce my kids to the outdoors.” Jeremy believes hunting can be a lifetime activity if you make it a priority to take care of your body.

On this episode of Huntavore, Nick is joined by Colorado resident, Rikki Folger. Rikki is an accomplished chef who desires to bring wild game and foraged food to the forefront. Armed with a culinary background, she launched the handle @wild_and_foraged, sharing recipes and her adventures. They talk about a shared pastime of disc golf, attempting bottom round burnt ends, and making a seasonal berry sauce that will elevate any steak dinner. Be ready to up your summer game with this episode of Huntavore.

Rikki Folger is an accomplished chef who has worked in Napa, California and now in Colorado. While also being a Somalia, someone who is trained in wine tasting, she also creates whole dishes in the kitchen. Nick, however, skips over all that and dives into a shared recreational game between them, disc golf. Lots of parallels between disc and ball golf, but one area that disc has focused on, is playing among the established habitat. For Nick, his foraging game has greatly improved, because of bad throws into the woods. Rikki turns her attention to improving Nick’s attempt on venison burnt ends. Immediate issue was the marbling and fat contact of the bottom round. The smoking and keeping the moisture in was achieved, but the crust and char was not up to par. Rikki offered to increase the surface area when broiling. Now one of the best parts of summer are the seasonal fruits that ripe for the picking. Rikki takes an already beautiful piece of grilled venison steak and adds a berry sauce. She chose blueberry as a sweet and tart sauce that would elevate a simple steak into fine dining.

This week on the Pennsylvania Woodsman we pick back up where we left off in last week's conversation with Cory Gulvas. Cory discusses a little more whitetail hunting strategy which then leads us into what he is truly most passionate about: traditional archery. Mature mountain bucks in the northeast can be an extremely difficult quarry to encounter in the first place. But connecting on one with a stick bow inside 20 yards is a whole new level of difficulty!  

Regardless of the type of vertical bow in hand, archery is a mental game. It's easy to develop bad habits that require practice schemes to break them. Cory shares with us that he has experienced target panic to such a degree, that during one particular season he hoped he would not see a shooter within range due to his lack of confidence behind the bow. Cory describes his journey of breaking this habit and striving to be the best shooter possible, whether that is in 3D competition or in the woods!
