Just a Simple Hunter With Special Guest Nick Reed
Season 2 Episode 88
In this episode of The Dreaded Archer Podcast, I sit down with my brother Nick Reed, who’s stepping into his first official hunting season and taking on the challenge of managing land for whitetail deer.
Nick opens up about what it’s really like learning to balance habitat management, archery practice, and the emotional highs and lows that come with being a first-time hunter. We talk about the process of turning raw land into a space that attracts and sustains deer, the lessons he’s learned from the soil to the stand, and how this journey has deepened his appreciation for the outdoors.
We also dive into:
- The mindset behind land and habitat management for deer
- How archery teaches patience, discipline, and respect for the hunt
- The influence of social media on today’s hunting community
- The rituals and superstitions hunters carry into the woods
- And that unforgettable moment before you let an arrow fly — when everything is quiet yet so loud at the same time.
If you love archery, deer hunting, land management, or you’re just starting your own outdoor journey, this episode will hit home. Nick’s story reminds us that the hunt isn’t just about the harvest — it’s about the growth, the grind, and the gratitude that come with time spent in DemWoods.
