In this episode, I sit down with Jace Nichols from Living Legends Outdoors to deconstruct one of the most incredible—and talked about—feats of the past season: harvesting a 200-inch Iowa mega-buck.Jace shares the raw, play-by-play recap of the hunt, but we go far beyond the antler score. We dive into the viral reaction that followed the shot—a moment of pure emotion that drew massive praise from the hunting community, but also sparked a wave of "internet hate" and criticism. Jace gets real about the highs and lows of being in the public eye, what it takes to hold mature deer on your property, and the unique chemistry of running a podcast with your best friends.

I recently sat down with legendary outdoorsman Spook Spann for a wide‑ranging and energizing interview. Spook’s accomplishments in the whitetail world are almost unmatched—he’s taken 13 bucks over 200 inches and more than 50 bucks scoring 170 inches or better, a testament to a lifetime of skill, patience, and relentless dedication.Throughout our conversation, we explored the drive and determination required to consistently pursue mature whitetails. Spook opened up about how mental toughness, preparation, and a refusal to quit have shaped his success in the woods. We also talked about fitness, and he shared how staying in great physical shape directly impacts his hunting effectiveness.The interview even shifted into the world of basketball, where Spook told one of his favorite personal stories—how he beat an NBA player one‑on‑one during an event. It was a fun reminder that his competitive fire extends far beyond the deer woods.Overall, the conversation highlighted Spook Spann’s unique blend of discipline, competitiveness, and passion—qualities that have made him a standout figure both in hunting and in life.
