Live from deer camp in Kansas, HuntStand Podcast Host Will Cooper sits down with longtime friend Cody Butler to tell the story of one of the most unreal bow seasons ever experienced.
Two bucks. Both over 180 inches. One season. And 360-plus inches of whitetail in one season with a bow.
Between late-season sits and cold Kansas nights, Cody walks through the moments that led to tagging two absolute giants, the highs and lows in between, and the quiet moments where you realize how little of this is actually in your control.
Some seasons you grind. Some seasons you wait. And every once in a while, you’re simply blessed.
This is a raw, camp-side conversation about gratitude, patience, and a season that felt bigger than the inches on a tape. The kind of year that humbles you and reminds you why we step into the woods in the first place.
No filters. No hype. Just the story behind 360-plus inches of whitetail and how it all came together.
