Summary

The difference between notching your tag or going home empty-handed from a hunt is usually determined by a few decisions or important moments. It is often only with hindsight that the outcome of the hunt can be understood by analyzing the decisive moments that led to the outcome — for good, or for bad. Every episode in this Reverse-Engineering Hunting Success podcast series will feature a conversation with an experienced hunter and dissect a successful hunt, looking back to understand or "reverse engineer" the key decisions or other decisive moments that led to their success. On this episode of our Reverse-Engineering Success series we speak with Brian ("BMack") McElrea about a Wyoming archery elk hunt. As you will hear, this story is filled with ups, downs, and unexpected turns.

moments, the key decisions, maybe the mistakes that they overcame to ultimately achieve

that success.
