In this episode, the Bovasin Crew recounts the ups and downs of a hunting season full of missed opportunities and unexpected challenges. Late-season antelope hunts found the team too late to harvest one with horns, as most had already shed. Long days spent tracking elk led to little more than old sign, and mule deer numbers were disappointingly low. Jared recounts missing a solid buck, with Holly providing plenty of lighthearted ribbing. The frustration hit its peak one morning as other hunters dashed ahead into a prime spot, leaving the crew trekking all day with little fresh sign. Just as hope began to fade, a mature bull finally appeared at sunset—on the last night of the weekend before they had to return to town for work. It’s a candid look at what makes hunting both maddening and rewarding.
