Summary

In this Episode of the "Reaching Your Peak" mini-series, (Episode #7), we have another story/lesson from Corey Jacobsen. This week, Corey shares the story of an elk encounter – a most-unexpected elk encounter – while archery hunting for elk in Idaho in 2008. His hunting partner, Donnie, had forgotten a key piece of elk hunting equipment back at the truck on that particular morning, so Corey offered his gear to Donnie, leaving him quite unprepared for what happens next. But that’s not the lesson shared in this story. While remembering critical gear is always an important part of any hunt, the lesson learned on this hunt goes much deeper. And Corey tackles the topic, head-on. “Reaching Your Peak” will be published every other week, to fill in the gap between regular ElkTalk Podcast episodes, from now until the first part of October. In this new mini-series, Corey will be sharing stories from his past elk hunts, and then detailing a strategy or tactic that was instrumental in the success of that hunt.

0:00.0	Welcome to Reaching Your Peak, an educational storytelling mini-series of the Elk Talk podcast.
0:19.6	This is Corey Jacobson, and today I'm going to be sharing a story from one of my previous
0:23.6	do-it-yourself public land Elk Kuntz, and then breaking down a strategy or a tactic that was
0:28.8	instrumental in the success of that hunt.

0:46.2	If you're looking for delicious freeze-dried meals that are made with 100% real ingredients,
0:51.5	including premium USDA meats, you've probably already heard of Peek Refuel. Their meals have
0:57.5	nearly twice as much protein as the competition, which is important for fueling your body in the
1:02.4	backcountry. There's no fillers, no empty calories, just premium nutrition that truly meets the
1:08.5	needs of Elk Kuntz, and the taste is second to none. My personal favorites are their home-style
1:14.8	chicken and rice and the beef stroganoff, but they have a huge selection of other incredible meals
1:20.5	like chicken alfredo, biscuits and gravy, chicken coconut curry, sweet pork and rice, mountain
