Summary

This week on the Truth From The Stand podcast, I sit down with my buddy Justin Tabor to talk about the grind of deer hunting, balancing family life, and why discipline matters just as much in the gym as it does in the woods. Justin and I dive into the emotional side of chasing deer—the highs of connecting on a good buck, the frustration of tough seasons, and the lessons that come from spending time in the hills. We get into how travel hunting sharpens your skills, the importance of paying attention to details and deer behavior, and why building relationships with landowners through door knocking can open new opportunities. This one is about more than just filling a tag—it’s about savoring the wins, learning from the misses, and chasing that next challenge. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM PODCAST 461 Discipline in Fitness & Hunting – Justin shares how staying disciplined in the gym builds the same mental toughness needed in the woods. Travel Hunting Lessons – Hunting new states forces adaptation, sharpens strategies, and makes you a better hunter. Attention to Detail – Understanding deer behavior, reading terrain, and focusing on genetics can tip the odds in your favor. Balancing Family & Hunting – Supportive partners and good planning make it possible to chase deer without sacrificing family life. Celebrate, Then Reset – Savor the win when you tag out but quickly shift focus to the next challenge. Relationships & Access – Door knocking and building trust with landowners can unlock new hunting opportunities. The Emotional Side of Hunting – The thrill of the chase, lessons from failure, and shared experiences are what keep hunters coming back.
