Pennsylvania Woodsman - Cabin Fever Camp Talk: Dad Life and Deer Drives

In this episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman, Mitch welcomes friend and returning guest Andrew Muntz back out of “podcast retirement” for a wide-ranging, fireside-style conversation that feels right at home in the slow, snowy days of winter. The two kick things off with dad-life moments, youth wrestling wins, and the realization that our kids are always watching—often becoming the very motivation we didn’t know we were missing. From rekindling personal drive to reassessing priorities, the conversation sets the tone for an honest discussion about growth, balance, and learning to push forward for reasons bigger than ourselves.From there, the episode settles into classic deer-camp storytelling. Andrew shares his season across Ohio and Pennsylvania, including shifting expectations, letting go of pressure, and finding fulfillment in simply enjoying time in the woods. The guys dive into rifle-season drives, first Pennsylvania buck memories, suppressed rifles, missing scope parts, bear encounters in fresh snow, and the camaraderie that makes camp special. More than tactics or inches of antler, this episode is a reminder that hunting is about people, shared experiences, and appreciating the moments that happen between the shots—especially when the season slows down.
