EP. 441: Professional Mindset To Kill Mature Bucks
Manage episode 483945699 series 1084973
Hey everyone, welcome to the Truth From The Stand podcast. In this episode, I’m catching up with Tom Murphy—a guy who knows his way around a ball field, and the big woods!
We cover some ground in this one. We dig into how growing up with rock and metal shaped us, how pro sports and bowhunting both demand a gritty mindset, and how the traditions we’re raised with show up in the woods whether we realize it or not. Tom opens up about a specific buck that taught him hard lessons—the kind that don’t show up on a trail cam. We talk about swampy, unforgiving terrain, and why sometimes, in both hunting and life, your best bet is to stop chasing perfection and just trust your gut.
This one’s about the crossover—where baseball meets bowhunting, where mindset trumps data, and where growing up with a little chip on your shoulder turns out to be your greatest asset.
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM PODCAST 441
- Lifting weights, chasing deer, and traveling for pro sports all come with discomfort—but they build resilience.
- Hunting swamps in New York requires the same gut instincts and patience that make good ballplayers and better hunters.
- Understanding a buck’s personality can be just as important as reading sign or camera data.
- Balancing aggression with patience—and why sometimes you’ve got to push the pace to grow.
- The “weed mentality” comes up—thriving without support, adapting on the fly, and finding a way to win in tough terrain.
- Whether you’re behind a bat or behind a bow, success often comes down to one thing: trusting your gut and pulling the trigger.
