In this episode, I talk to Elias Benson about his first archery mule deer buck in Northern California. Elias grew up hunting but recently caught the bowhunting itch. He went through two seasons of grinding it out in the backcountry, and in an amazing story of missed shots and follow-ups, finally made a perfect shot on a really nice muley buck. To keep up with Elias, go give him a follow on Instagram @bent_on_hunting. If you’re a newer hunter (or an experienced one just looking to make sure there aren’t any gaps in your hunting game), check out my book How to Hunt: A Total Beginner’s Guide to Hunting Big Game.
