EP 629: James Yates
This week, prepare to be enthralled as we sit down with James Yates, a true Renaissance man whose passions span the realms of mule deer hunting and engineering consultancy. James’s narrative is one of intrigue, having ventured deep into the world of rock climbing before fate beckoned him back to the untamed wilderness of hunting after a setback.
Join us as we unravel James’s journey, from the dizzying heights of rock climbing obsession to the rugged terrain of mule deer hunting. Delve into the depths of his evolution from a staunch advocate of bow-only hunting to a versatile and adept wielder of multiple weapons. With each twist and turn, James’s story embodies resilience, adaptability, and an insatiable thirst for adventure.
