How to Get A Tag Every Year with Brian Lueddeke of the Twilight Hunters' Podcast

In this special crossover episode, Jaden Bales joins Brian Lueddeke on the Twilight Hunter's Podcast for a deep-dive into Western tag systems, drawing strategies, and how to secure hunting opportunities every year—especially if you're getting started later in life. From preference points and random draws to budgeting for multi-state hunts, Jaden and Brian break down practical tips for hunters who don't want to sit on the sidelines. They also swap stories from their own hunting journeys—including the time Jaden and his brother doubled on bucks in Wyoming—and talk through the value of going on meaningful hunts with family. We hope you enjoy the show and that it helps create some organization in all the western hunting tag game chaos.  _____ You can now get help on your hunts without booking a call!
