Ep72. The Buck That Changed Everything With Special Guest Zack Johns
In this episode of the Dreaded Archer Podcast, I’m joined by avid bowhunter and content creator Zack Johns, the man behind Lone Bowhunter Chronicles. Zack takes us on a wild ride through his bowhunting journey, including the unforgettable story of the monster Ohio buck he harvested in 2022—a moment that changed his life forever.
We dive into how Zack got started in the outdoors, what led him to pick up a bow, and the challenges and rewards of filming hunts solo. We also talk about the growth of his digital platform, balancing content creation with real life, and what he’s looking forward to this upcoming season. Plus, we geek out on new gear, archery setups, and the mindset it takes to consistently get it done in the whitetail woods.
Whether you're a seasoned hunter or just getting started, this is an episode packed with insight, inspiration, and straight-up bowhunting passion.
