Michigan Whitetails, Wolves, and the 40% Rule With Tom Spisz (Michigan)
Manage episode 516065417 series 3657556
Some stories remind hunters why the woods always have the final say. This week, Michigan bowhunter and entrepreneur Tom Spisz sits down with Mitchell Fox to talk about lessons learned from business, black bears, and getting turned around in the dark timber.
Raised outside Ann Arbor, Tom grew up running behind his dad and uncles—“the OG Michigan hunters,” as he calls ’em—cutting his teeth on bait piles, red-tipped youth bows, and long, cold sits. Over the years he traded that pile of corn for hanging stands, reading the wind, and chasing mature whitetails the hard way.
The two dive deep into the changing face of hunting in Michigan—cell cams, public-land pressure, and that sacred November 15th rifle opener that feels more like a holiday than a hunt. Tom also shares what it’s like to chase black bears in New Brunswick with nothing but a bow, a headlamp, and no cell service, plus his dream of drawing a Montana elk tag and doing it the old-fashioned way—with a stick and string.
It’s a conversation about grit, patience, and learning to slow down—whether in the woods or in business.
