59: Six Hunters On The Same Tom And A First Timer Caught In The Middle With Michael Bennett II (Missouri)

Michael grew up in central Missouri watching his grandfather pull into the driveway with one-fifty and one-sixty inch bucks draped across the hood, wishing he could be part of it. His dad never hunted, but his grandpa taught himself in his thirties and passed everything down to Michael the moment he was old enough to sit still. By fifteen he was hunting solo with a bow, tagged his first deer on opening day, and spent the rest of that season stacking meat in the freezer. Then his grandpa took him turkey hunting, and something clicked that never let go. Michael is a turkey hunter first and everything else second. He has chased birds across Missouri, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Florida, and Montana, and he has built his permission network the old fashioned way, knocking on doors, buying the farmer's wife a bottle of wine, and earning every acre he sets foot on. He talks about losing his grandpa's property after his grandfather passed, what it felt like to shoot his first out of state bird the same day he got that phone call, and why that hunt changed the way he thinks about the turkey woods forever. He also walks through one of the most chaotic public land turkey hunts you will hear on this show, six hunters converging on the same gobbling bird from six different directions on a Missouri lake, with a first-timer sitting right in the middle of it all. This is a turkey hunting story rooted in Missouri ridge systems, river bottoms, and the kind of public land pressure that will either break you or make you better. A Hunter's Legacy is where stories like Michael's belong, from first-generation turkey hunters learning the hard way to guys who will walk twelve miles just to find where the birds went.

58: Twenty Four Miles Of Snow Tracking A Mountain Lion On The Slopes With Kendall Anthony (Colorado)

Kendall grew up in St. Petersburg, Florida fishing canals behind his house with a thirteen foot alligator living just downstream. When he was ten his family moved to Colorado and everything changed. He had no hunting family to learn from. His grandparents were from England, guns were foreign to them, and hunting was not part of anyone's plan. Then a Tom Miranda bowhunting show came on after his shark fishing program ended, and that was it. He spent the next fifteen years building one of the most diverse hunting resumes you will find on any average joe in the country. By sixteen he was chasing mountain lions through two feet of snow on Colorado's Western Slope, tracking a tom for twenty four miles over two days before putting two shots through him with a borrowed nine millimeter at fifteen yards. By his early twenties he had a cow moose on the ground, a pronghorn at three hundred yards, and a bear charge stopped at five yards by his buddy's snub nose revolver after his rifle jammed at the worst possible moment. He drew a Colorado moose tag his first year eligible, sent his girlfriend sprinting back for his magazine mid stalk, and nearly got pinned under eight hundred pounds of dead moose on a steep drainage. And then there was Africa, where a sixteen year dream of killing an eland finally came together on a mountainside with his mom watching from base camp. This episode covers mule deer and elk hunting on Colorado public land, spot and stalk pronghorn, mountain lion hunting with hounds, and what it looks like when a first generation hunter refuses to stop chasing the next one. A Hunter's Legacy is built for stories like Kendall's, from Colorado mountain hunting to dangerous game in South Africa and everything in between. Want to be a guest?

57: First Generation Hunter Who Did It The Hardest Way Possible With Robert Arrieta (Arkansas)

Robert did not grow up in a hunting family. His dad was a hotel guy, not a hunting guy. But a neighbor across the street in suburban Colorado named Mr. Rodriguez changed everything. Robert watched him hang elk and deer in the garage, cut his own jerky, and live a life that Robert could not stop thinking about. That was the seed. It took years before he had the land, the time, and the tools to act on it. When he finally did, he skipped the compound, skipped the rifle, and went straight for something most hunters never touch. Robert hunts the Ozark mountains of Arkansas with selfbows he carves by hand from Osage orange. He makes his own arrows, tracks deer on foot through timber and elevation changes, and measures a great hunt by how close he gets rather than whether he kills. He has spent full days following a single buck through the mountains, eating a slim jim for lunch while the deer fed and rested, never getting a shot, and called it one of the best days he has ever spent outdoors. It took him five years of hunting with traditional archery gear before he killed his first deer. He does not regret a single day of it. This episode goes deep into selfbow building, the philosophy of traditional hunting, what it means to be connected to the woods, and why Robert thinks the hunting world is drifting the wrong direction. A Hunter's Legacy is built for stories like this one, from Ozark mountain deer hunting to guys who carve their own bows and chase whitetails the hard way. Want to be a guest?
