There’s something about the first time a Minnesotan hits the Montana ridges—it humbles a man quick. For Peter Herzog, that move west wasn’t just about chasing bigger bulls—it was about building a life from the ground up.Originally from small-town Minnesota, Peter’s story is full of grit, risk, and elk bugles echoing through the timber. He shares what it’s really like to go from managing a 30-man spray foam business to chasing elk across state lines, hunting 7 to 11 states a year, and raising five kids out near Bozeman.This episode digs into the tangled mess of land access in the West—why apps like LandTrust have locals up in arms, how Montana’s outfitting laws create a gray area, and why private land’s not always as simple as a “yes” or “no.” Peter doesn’t sugarcoat it, either—he lays out the cultural clash between Midwest whitetail hunters and the Western mindset, and why chasing elk isn’t just different terrain—it’s a whole different code.From building businesses to bowhunting bulls to parenting in wild country, Peter brings a perspective that’s raw, honest, and damn sure earned.Give it a listen, and pass it on to the hunters who dream of heading west.
