Duck and Coot Showdown and Elk Season Wrap Up

It’s late November and we’re back in the blind for another Road Hunter Podcast hunt. The ducks were slow, but the coots kept things interesting—we ended the morning with 3 coot, 2 ducks, and plenty of laughs. While we wait on birds, we break down the final days of elk season: what went right, what went sideways, and what we learned as we close the book on another year in the mountains. If you like duck hunting, real talk, and end-of-season storytelling, you’re in the right place.

Ryan’s Trophy Elk Bow Hunt Gone Wrong | Road Hunter Podcast

In this episode of the Road Hunter Podcast, Ryan shares a deeply personal and emotional story from this past bow season — a once-in-a-lifetime shot on a massive trophy elk… that didn’t go as planned. He walks us through the moment of the shot, the confidence he had in the placement, and the gut-wrenching days that followed searching for an animal that never turned up. It’s the side of hunting we don’t talk about enough — the reality, the responsibility, and the respect we owe the animals we pursue. This isn’t a story of success, but it’s one every hunter needs to hear.
