October 01, 2025 546 | DIY Solo Elk — Highs & Lows (A Listener Story)
"I just got home from my second year in a row of successful backpack solo elk hunting with the bow — last year with a cow, and this year with my first bull. I know that several of my deliberate decisions during the hunt (which are things I learned from listening to your podcast) led to my success. So thank you!" —Ryan
We received that email from today's guest, Ryan. But that email is only part of the story. Ryan spent many years hunting elk before becoming successful over the past couple of hunts. In today's podcast with Ryan, we discuss the highs and lows of do-it-yourself solo elk hunting, what Ryan learned over the years, how he changed his hunt strategy, and how his persistence paid off.

September 24, 2025 545 | DIY Colorado Bighorn Ram (A Listener Story)
A listener of the show, Roman, discovered that he had drawn a Bighorn Ram tag in his home state of Colorado. As a relatively new hunter and someone who had not been putting in the sheep draws for long, Roman was beyond surprised to find out that he had drawn the tag, and he was excited to spend months planning, preparing, and scouting before opening day. We discuss how Roman spent those pre-season months, then dive into the story of the hunt itself. We conclude the conversation discussing gear takeaways, lessons learned from the hunt experience, and more.
