On this episode of the East Meets West Hunt podcast, Beau Martonik is joined by Trail Kreitzer of GoHunt. Trail is an accomplished western hunter and talks with me about the basics of hunting elk, mule deer and other big game. We talk about the most important gear items, dealing with altitude, putting together a plan for an OTC elk hunt, executing the plan when the plan fails, getting over target panic and Trail’s first experience hunting whitetails. This is a great episode for hunters wanting to head west for the first time and some information for experienced hunters, as well.
