Episode 13: Corey Jacobson Is Back And Gives The Elk Calling Blueprint

World Champion elk caller and seasoned hunter Corey Jacobson ( @Elk101  ) joins the World's Most Interesting to share a lifetime of wisdom from the wild. Corey and Brady discuss the unparalleled adrenaline rush of a close-range elk encounter, the critical importance of passing on a legacy of hunting to the next generation , and the unintended, often negative, consequences when wildlife management is influenced by those outside the hunting community.Forget gear hype. Corey and I ripped straight to the bones: how grit, mistakes, and family make a legacy that outlasts boot prints. He spilled on what really matters in the woods (spoiler: not your bank account), why sharing the hunt with his kids hits harder than any trophy, and how modern regs sometimes screw up what they’re meant to save. We laughed, we got real—like Texas hand-fishing real—and I lost track of how many times the hair on my neck stood up.If you want elk tales that'll punch you in the ribs—first kills, wild lawmaking stories, out-hunted by your own kid—this is your campfire. Wanna break through in western big game? Or maybe you just crave the truth behind those 5% success odds. Corey lays out every battle scar, gear myth, and why muscle memory rips open the door when adrenaline hits.Timestamps00:00 – Elk screaming, first kills, pure adrenaline00:51 – Lawmaking spills, Texas hand-fishing gone sideways04:20 – What burns in a champion?
