Eric shoots the breeze with guest Katelyn Armstrong. Katelyn grew up gun hunting, but it wasn't until 2020 that she decided to take up bow hunting. Not only that but the same year, she decided to learn how to bow hunt from a saddle and also learn how to self-film her hunts! It wasn't without mistakes (a good reason for her to guest on the Okayest Hunter podcast), but she learned a lot the hard way.
