36: The Addiction That Keeps Him Coming Back to the Cold with Hunter Libra (Ontario)
Description
From throwing decoy bags bigger than him as a kid in Erie to running a waterfowl guide service in southern Ontario, Hunter Libra has packed a lifetime of hunting grit into just 27 years. The path hasn’t been easy, and it sure as hell hasn’t been boring.
In this episode, Hunter shares how a Tinder match turned into a cross-border move, a family, and a new life in Canada. He talks about chasing turkeys with his dad back in the day, dragging gear through the woods before he could even aim straight, and the time he lost a treestand after pulling an all-nighter and puking from the top of it.
They dig into the tough realities of hunting in Ontario. Getting permission took 38 cold calls. But it’s got its perks too—like chasing mature bucks in low-pressure archery zones and duck hunting a quarry with 14 islands and no burnout. Hunter also opens up about guiding full-time, raising a young son, dreaming of a Kodiak grizzly hunt with a bow, and the day he actually got peppered by another hunter’s shotgun.
This one’s honest, funny, and full of heart. A true story about grit, growth, and the kind of hunts that shape a man.
