On this episode of the Hunt West Podcast, Jaden sits down with longtime buddy and seasoned sufferer Hayden Richins to talk about all the times things didn’t go according to plan in the field. From frozen rifles and “yard sale” fire-starting to saltwater-induced butt bombs and three-arrow tree slaps, this one’s a backcountry blooper reel with some hard-earned lessons baked in.

If you've ever missed a shot, lost your cool, or packed out meat with a broken spirit (and a broken water filter), this episode will hit home and probably make you laugh out loud.
