Got questions? Send us a text!
In this episode of the Mountain Dude Podcast, we sit down with Tim Tucker — a young hunter, creative, and man of faith — to talk about perseverance, target panic, and finding redemption through archery and family.
From missed opportunities in the elk woods to finally sealing his first bow kill on an Idaho antelope with his dad by his side, Tim’s story is one of grit, grace, and growth. We dive into how he rebuilt his confidence, the mental side of archery, and how God uses even the smallest moments in hunting to teach bigger life lessons.
Whether you’ve faced target panic, struggled through setbacks, or just needed a reminder to keep showing up, this one’s for you.
The Mountain Dude Podcast is brought to you by Initial Ascent, where we share stories of grit, determination, and the relentless pursuit of growth both in the mountains and in life.
