EP 653: Nathan Endicott
This week, I’m joined by the incredible Nathan Endicott, a diehard blacktail hunter, filmmaker, and all-around great human. Nathan shares the story of his absolutely unreal 2024 hunting season—a year that showcased his resilience, patience, and determination.
Nathan’s journey hasn’t been easy. After battling a life-threatening autoimmune disease that sidelined his college running career, Nathan shifted his focus entirely to health and family. But even as he returned to hunting, his 2023 season was another gut punch, with luck seemingly against him at every turn—even during a tough trip to Arizona in early 2024.
Never one to give up, Nathan set an ambitious goal for 2024: to take a blacktail in every state they roam—Oregon, Alaska, California, and Washington. Armed with more patience and contentment than ever before, Nathan turned the tables and had the season of a lifetime, capturing most of it on film.
In this episode, we dive into:
- Nathan’s journey back from adversity,
- The mindset shift that transformed his hunting success,
- The epic hunts and incredible challenges he faced, and
- Lessons learned from one of the most ambitious seasons in blacktail hunting.
