In September, Justin Hollandworth (@masonsdad1975) thought his season was over. EHD had hit hard, his farm was wiped out, and the plan he’d built all year was gone overnight.

What followed was one of the most frustrating—and ultimately rewarding—bowhunting seasons you’ll hear about.

Justin breaks down how he pivoted mid-season to find new ground, locate a mature buck, and stay in the game when most hunters would’ve checked out. He had this deer inside 25 yards SIX different times, made a bad hit in October, and even got busted at 5 yards on a late-season move that almost ended it all.

This episode isn’t just about killing a big buck—it’s about adapting when everything goes wrong.

What’s inside:

• The EHD Pivot: How to find new places to hunt when your main farm goes quiet.
• The 6-Encounter Grind: Having a giant inside 25 yards six separate times.
• The Low Shot: Dealing with a bad hit on October 26th and how he confirmed the buck was still alive.
• The 5-Yard Disaster: Getting pegged at point-blank range and why he stayed disciplined at full draw.
• The Survival Guide: Tactical advice for anyone dealing with EHD or a 'blown-up' season.
• Philosophy: The difference between a rough season that ends well and one that just ends.

• 
  

  If you’ve ever had a season feel like it's falling apart, this one will hit home.

Pornography is destroying marriages before they even start, and honestly, the church has been way too quiet about it.

In this episode, I'm sitting down with Pastor Tad Grandstaff from Hope Church in North Carolina, and we're having the conversation that everybody needs to hear but nobody wants to talk about.

We discusshow pornography becomes an addiction. We talk about why it sets these completely unrealistic expectations that silently poison your marriage. And here's the thing that most people don't realize — there's a direct connection between pornography consumption and sex trafficking. It's not some abstract idea. It's real.

We also talk about how unchecked lust leads to adultery, broken families, and destroyed lives. But here's the good news — we don't just talk about the problem. We talk about what God actually designed sex to be. And I'm telling you, it's so much better than the counterfeit the world is selling.

There is a real evil; and deception & addiction are some of the primary tools it uses to destroy your life.

This episode is the most important one I have put out. Listen now. Share it. And let's stop avoiding the conversations that matter.

I’m coming off Winterstrong at Sorinex Outdoors and I am extremely grateful to have Danny Bolton join me. Danny is one of those rare guys who does epic things all the time. When you sit with him, though, the thing that hits you first is not all of his accomplishments but Danny's humility. It is a rare quality in today's society and it really drew me toward having this conversation with him.

Our shared experience at Winterstrong immediately pulled Danny Bolton and me into a deeper topic: what it looks like to live by your non‑negotiables when real opportunities show up—especially the brand/work decisions that can either align with your values or quietly sell them off.

From there, we talk about the bowhunting life, integrity, and why your choices matter even more when you realize your kids are watching—learning what you truly believe by what you’re willing (or not willing) to compromise.

In this episode, we cover:

--How Danny evaluates brands and work opportunities without cutting corners

Defining your values and sticking to them when it costs you something

-The link between bowhunting, discipline, and character

-The legacy Danny wants to build—and what he hopes his kids learn by watching his decisionsLeadership as a byproduct of consistency, not talk

Rare is the man with this many notches on his bow who deflects attention to the greatness of others. Danny is one of those men.
