#97 | Mark Drury: Building a Hunting Legacy, DEERCAST & the Future of Hunting

Ike Eastman sits down with Mark Drury for a deep dive into a lifetime in the hunting industry—where it started, how it evolved, and what still drives the fire today. From growing up in the timber along the Mississippi River to building one of the most recognized brands in hunting media, Mark shares the real story behind the success, the struggles, and the relentless pursuit of getting better. This episode goes beyond tactics. It's about family, mentorship, and the responsibility of passing hunting on to the next generation. Mark breaks down the mindset behind DEERCAST, how they built it, and why understanding "why animals move" matters more than ever. They also get into turkey season grind, evolving with media, and what it means to live a life in the outdoors. If you care about hunting, legacy, and doing it the right way—this one hits.
