EP. 426: Scrapes, Stealth, and Strategy | Hunting Smarter, Not Harder | Dieter Kochan

In this episode, I sit down with Dieter Kochan to talk hunting, pro hockey, and the discipline it takes to succeed in both. We dig into the unique challenges of hunting Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, how intentional practice shapes success, and the role of real-time intel in the whitetail woods. 

Dieter also breaks down the growing role of e-bikes in hunting—what works, what doesn’t, and how to build a machine that can handle tough terrain. Whether you're looking to refine your hunting strategy, explore new gear, or just hear some wild stories, this one's got something for you.
