"Be of Good Cheer" with Matthew Jefko

On this episode of The Wisconsin Sportsman, Pierce is joined by Matt Jefko to dive into the mental hurdles we must clear as hunters and humans in the outdoors. Matt is an avid outdoorsman, professional photographer, and high school Social Studies teacher in the Madison area. In this conversation, the guys recap their antlerless holiday hunts, discuss the mental hurdles that come along with shooting, finding joy in hunting without technology, student perspectives on hunting, the ethics of hunting and food acquisition, and a harrowing tale of a dead buck and a knife to the knee! All that and more in this week's episode!Huge thanks to Matt for coming on the show!
