Ep. 41 | Unpunched Tags: Lessons from Hunts That Didn’t Go as Planned
Episode 41
Thursday, 13 November, 2025

In this solo episode, Trail reflects on the unsuccessful hunts — the hunts that didn’t end with a filled freezer or a grip-and-grin photo. He digs into what those experiences taught him about preparation, decision-making, patience, and what really matters in the field. From missed opportunities to hard-learned lessons, this is a real conversation about learning through failure and why sometimes the best takeaways come from the tags that stay uncut.
