EatWild 102 - Campfire Q&A - On a Mule Deer hunt with Dave GU

About this episode

The episode features a conversation about mule deer hunting techniques and personal stories with guest Dave Gu.

Join us as I head out on a mule deer hunt with new hunter, Dave Gu.Dave comes from a background in kinesiology and works as a Wim Hof instructor and personal trainer. He’s also a talented storyteller, sharing his powerful journey of thriving in life while managing Ankylosing Spondylitis — a challenging autoimmune disease. Dave found me on his journey to become a hunter, and we’ve since become great friends. Last weekend, I was looking for a hunting partner to explore some new zones, and Dave was keen to join. As we headed out, Dave fired question after question about how I research and find deer habitat — so I decided to turn on the podcast mic.
