Episode Details

In this episode, I sit down with Tim McDonald—who started hunting at 64 and killed his first bear at 65 on a backcountry hunt in Idaho’s Selway Wilderness. We talk about what triggered his late start into hunting, his year-long preparation process, the physical training and gear purchases, how he overcame “first shot” nerves, and why hunting has completely transformed his life.

If you’re an adult-onset hunter, especially over 40 or 50, this episode has real-world advice you can apply immediately.
