Turkey season's wrapped in Michigan, and Joe's off chasing bears, but The Fair Chase podcast is back with Mark Naida, editor of Michigan Enjoyer—a fresh outlet hyping the Mitten State's lifestyle and politics. Mark's a first-time hunter, and we took him on a wild turkey chase in Northern Michigan, trading his laptop for a shotgun. From the city to the woods, he got a crash course in calling, freezing in a teepee, and why turkeys are the smartest (and dumbest) critters we hunt.   We break down our hunt—near misses, deer blowing our cover, and morel hunters stealing spots—while Mark shares how a city guy fell for Michigan's wild side. If you're new to hunting or love a good campfire chat, this one's for you.   We also cover:  - Why turkey hunting feels like outsmarting a feathered computer  - The beauty of a Kifaru's floorless tipi - How Michigan's public land makes hunting accessible for newbies  - Mark's one big tip for April Mark: “Don't move!”   Check out Michigan Enjoyer: Website: michiganenjoyer.com Instagram: @michiganenjoyer    Follow us here: https://www.instagram.com/thefairchase/ https://www.facebook.com/fairchaseofficial/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/thefairchase/ https://x.com/TheFairChase1    SAVE 30% on TUO Gear!

Robby hosts today's Rokcast.  He covers high-level glassing for big mule deer, and touches on Travis Hobb's recent episode, "Your Angled Spotting Scope is Holding You Back." here Robby also covers a popular thread in the optics subforum, "Zeiss Victory SF Review," here recently renewed by Rokslide member B_Reynolds_AK on the superb performance of the Zeiss SF 32 mm binocular platform. He makes the case that the SF bumps up against the venerable Swarovski NL 32s.  Blasphemy to some, but go check that thread yourself.  You can also save some weight and save some money by jumping on that thread. Robby also gives a scouting update: two trips with zero deer sightings, but another trip with six bucks spotted and a shooter! Kind of expected in the years following winter die-off. He goes on to explain the concept of Scout Big Hunt Small here and why plan B doesn't always mean switching areas. Rokslide's Best Hunt Photo contests are now live for Mule Deer, Sheep, Elk, and Whitetail on our hunting forums here Sponsored by Kryptek, Stone Glacier, Kifaru, and First Lite, members stand to win thousands in some of the leading gear in the industry including three Kifaru ARK frames with bag of choice, $1,000 in the Kryptek Store, a Sky Solus 1P Tent, and the First Lite CORE Jacket and Bib.  Photos must be from a 2024 hunt and don't necessarily have to be grip 'n grin photo. Finally, Robby jumps into his extensive glassing chapter in his book, Hunting Big Mule Deer.  He covers glassing technique from archery range to five miles.  If you're glassing for big mule deer, this episode is for you.

Aaron Snyder of Kifaru, a seasoned adventurer with a heart forged in the great outdoors, joins us for a fireside chat brimming with wild escapades and profound wisdom. Celebrating our 99th episode—a testament to the journey we've all been on together—we traverse the emotional terrain of hunting, encountering the raw edge where nature meets human spirit. Aaron doesn't hold back as he shares his riveting experiences, from confronting the perils of a boulder field with a dislocated rib to the joys and pains of bow hunting that have shaped his incredible journey from a military man to a connoisseur of survival.Imagine drawing your bowstring back quietly, eyes locked on a mule deer, heart pounding in the stillness of the forest; Aaron brings these moments to life with vivid tales of hunts that test the limits of both traditional and compound bow equipment. The episode is also a sanctuary for candid discussions on controversial topics like predator hunting in British Columbia, where ethics and conservation intersect with the primal dance of hunter and prey. Each story peels back a layer of the hunter's psyche, exposing the inherent challenges and the ceaseless pursuit of personal growth through nature's unforgiving lessons.As we wrap up this episode with Aaron, it's not just about the hunts but the growth that comes from them. The tales of early overconfidence, the trials of extreme weather, and the unwavering determination in the face of missed opportunities are as much a reflection of life as they are of hunting. We're not just recounting stories; we're sharing a part of ourselves, inviting listeners to connect through the universal language of the wilderness. So, as you listen, remember that each journey into the wild is our own, and together, we're writing the stories that define us.Aron's LinktreeAron's InstagramHunting Stories InstagramSupport the Show.
