What does it look like to learn how to hunt without someone showing you the ropes? In this episode, Nate sits down with an old college friend, Austin Elam, to talk about his journey as a self-taught hunter and everything that comes with figuring it out on your own.

From learning the ins and outs of hunting to gaining experience in the field, Austin shares his perspective on what it takes to become a better hunter through trial and error, time spent outdoors, and a willingness to learn. Nate and Austin reminisce about their college days while diving into hunting stories, lessons learned, and the experiences that have shaped Austin into the hunter he is today.

Whether you're a seasoned whitetail hunter or just getting started, this conversation is a reminder that there's more than one way to learn how to hunt. Sometimes, the best lessons come from getting out there, making mistakes, and figuring things out for yourself.
