In this episode, Kristof and T.C. review the 2017 hunting season and reflect on lessons learned. They also bask in a little bit of past success but have to admit to some generous amounts of failure. Burning Question: Have you ever thought of “Why” you hunt - like really, really thought about it? The guys did, and it was a great exercise in introspection for them. Turns out they don’t hunt for the same reasons... Bowhunting’s hard reality? How big a deal is it to shoot, wound, but not recover a deer? Some thoughts and ideas get kicked around. You’ll have to see if you agree with them. Cheer or don’t cheer? Kristof shot his 1st Archery and 1st Traditional bow deer last year and he didn’t really celebrate it. Is that weird?!
