Jeff Barlow... better known online as Nimrod Outdoors joins Ryan to talk family, faith, and the kind of hunts that turn into lifelong stories. Jeff shares how a joking nudge from his wife and a verse about the “mighty hunter” Nimrod sparked a 15-year digital journal with his seven kids, documenting everything from first tags to pack-outs. He tells the incredible Depression-era tale of his grandfather’s 34-inch cactus buck that fed the family and, decades later, found its way back home. We go deep on elk and mule deer strategy, why bugles in bow range raise the neck hairs, and Jeff’s wild Wasatch opener where a missed arrow turned into an eight-foot shot on a six-point bull. He also walks through his once-in-a-lifetime Utah moose hunt snow tracks, near misses, and the final pack-out with friends.Jeff breaks down Sneek Tec: wind checkers, cover-scent sprays (sage, cedar, juniper), and “sneek boots” that quiet your steps plus how these tools buy you the 20–30 seconds that matter. We finish with advice for new hunters: enjoy the ride, put meat in the freezer, and don’t chase someone else’s score chase experiences with the people you love.If you enjoyed this episode: follow, share it with a buddy, and leave a rating.
