With Ryan off camping, the inmates are officially running the asylum. Bobtastic and Captain JG take over Episode 233 for a leaderless edition of The Terrible Outdoorsman—and somehow they actually manage to talk about the outdoors.
With hunting season creeping closer, the guys talk Halloween hunts, Michigan bowhunting, tree stands vs. saddles, hunting the U.P., and whether hunters have completely overcomplicated something humans have been doing for thousands of years. Do we really need another app, another piece of gear, perfect scent control and a $1,000 outfit just to go sit in the woods?
That leads into trophy culture, social-media deer judges, trail cameras, expensive gear and why the first question after someone shoots a buck shouldn't always be, "How big is it?" Somewhere along the way, hunters also get compared to highly organized deer assassins.
Dan even drops in from the hospital for a few minutes with an update on his family—and, naturally, a massive burrito—before Bob and JG get back to solving all of hunting's problems.
But underneath all the terrible advice is a pretty simple message heading into hunting season: slow down and enjoy it. Hunt the deer you want to hunt. Fish when you want to fish. Sleep in at camp once in a while. Sit around the fire. Make memories. Stop worrying about whether you're doing everything "right."
Sometimes just being there is the win.
Get outdoors, keep it simple, and don't be terrible.
