Mike and Ryan are back with another Just the Tip Tuesday, breaking down what they actually mean by hunting intentions—not resolutions, not fantasies, but realistic plans built around life, work, and time in the mountains.

From horse-packed deer hunts and first-year bear bait plans to slowing down in new elk units and embracing October rifle seasons, this episode is about playing the long game. Toss in a little truck ranting, marketplace ethics, and an emergency elk-neck Instapot recipe, and you’ve got a classic Just the Tip episode.

Short, honest, and straight from the field—this is hunting talk for people who still care more about meat than horns.
