Nick recounts his season in Michigan, complete with the tale of a hard-earned eight-point buck, some comical interruptions, and a few honest reflections about how our love for hunting can both test and teach us.Together, Mitch and Nick dig into the deeper side of deer season—how faith keeps us grounded, how friends keep us humble, and how even in the middle of chaos, a little laughter can go a long way. From managing family calendars to processing venison with the kids, this episode blends humor, heart, and a healthy dose of perspective. Whether you’re a serious trophy hunter or just love filling the freezer, this conversation reminds us what really matters when the woods go quiet.
