Mike and Greg 0814

This week, cohosts Mike and Greg open up about what hunting was like for them before and after disability — and how the passion for the outdoors never left, even when life changed.

We roll into three big topics:

Adaptive Gear That Changes the Game

Track chairs, gun mounts, modified bows… people might see them as “gadgets,” but for us, they’re the bridge between watching a hunt and actually pulling the trigger. That first moment you realize you can still do it is huge — it’s like getting a piece of yourself back.

Mental Resilience in the Field

Hunting with a disability is about so much more than filling a tag. It’s adapting, problem-solving, and pushing past limits you thought were set in stone. Every challenge you beat in the field builds confidence that carries over into everyday life. And the community? It’s everything. Around a campfire or in a blind with someone who gets it — you’re reminded you’re not alone.

Breaking Misconceptions

One of the biggest myths is that disability means you can’t be an active, successful hunter. Or that adaptive hunts are “easier.” Truth is, it often takes more preparation, creativity, and grit. Adaptive gear doesn’t hunt for you — it just levels the playing field so skill and knowledge can shine. Changing these ideas starts with visibility. Share your hunts. Invite others to see how the gear works. The more people witness it firsthand, the faster those old stereotypes fade.

Tune in and hear the full conversation — your perspective on what’s possible in the outdoors might just change.
