In today’s episode, we’re talking about backcountry safety and how to control bleeding in the field. Our guest shares a real-life story of accidentally stabbing himself in the leg while field dressing his archery elk. We break down what went wrong, what could have been done differently, and—most importantly—what every hunter should carry in their pack to be prepared for medical emergencies.

Whether you’re a seasoned hunter or just getting started, this episode covers essential first aid skills, bleeding control techniques, and the gear that could save your life when help is far away.
