An Arkansas Mom’s Journey to Her First Buck with a Bow With Kayla Harrod (Arkansas)
Manage episode 519214633 series 3657556
Kayla Harrod isn’t out to impress anyone. She’s a part-time nurse practitioner, full-time mom of three, and a bowhunter with a Mathews bow and a dream. Based in Central Arkansas, Kayla grew up in the woods—literally in a backpack on her dad’s back during early hunts and never left. Now, she’s passing it down to her kids, hunting solo, and chasing her first archery buck with raw determination and zero shortcuts.
In this episode, she opens up about growing up in a hunting family, the grit it takes to bowhunt with toddlers at home, and how she’s found peace, purpose, and a second wind in the deer woods. She shares how a surprise gift from a follower changed her season, why she refuses to fake anything for content, and what legacy really means when it comes to raising future hunters.
Also: a bear encounter she’ll never forget, what it’s like being a woman in a male-dominated space, and the truth about hunting culture shifting in the social media era.
Whether you’re a veteran hunter or just picking up a bow, this one’s a reminder that the best stories come from the backwoods, not the spotlight.
