Stepping foot on new soil is always an adventure. This year did not disappoint what so ever. Every year @mloeffel3md start our training to go out west in early June, this year was a little different bc @green_ty_ was joining us, and my son started to take a big interest in joining me in my training. How was the hunt? About as close to successful as you can get without filling a tag. We were in it every day, multiple chances, the weather was rough at times but we kept at it. New friends and amazing memories made, almost 50 miles 10k ft of elevation gain in 5 days was worth it. I’ll let the pictures describe how beautiful it is out there. Some don’t understand how incredibly hard it is to fill a tag in 5 days, but that is part of the appeal! by @j_benrn

having recently returned from hunting out west ( which will Be a post all in itself) I wanted to give a quick review of some new gear I used this year. I met @colby_fontaine this past year and we quickly became friends. Being both avid hunters he introduced me to Born Primitive Outdoors hunting line of clothes. Having heard of them before via @elkshape social media I figured I would give them a try. I used their lighter line during turkey season and was impressed. But I had not idea how well they would perform out west! From 30 to 80 degrees and 70 mph wind, rain, ice, every piece performed flawlessly. I’m not a salesman, but have a lot of hunting friends on social media…… do not sleep on Born Primitive Outdoors! I have already started selling my other “high end camo”. by @j_benrn

Probably not a surprise to a few of my friends on here…… but I have pretty severe body dysmorphia, I rarely post pictures of my body, or my face, well here it is. Last week, a buddy of mine (and he didn’t mean any harm when saying this) told me that I should probably lose 20 to 30 pounds of fat if I wanted to have a six pack. And to be honest that put me in a bit of a spin being pretty body conscious, training every day, often multiple time a day, and I kind of became manic in my workouts. My wife is very aware of my body dysmorphia and can always tell when I’m spinning. And speaking with her and some friends made me realize that we are all in different stages of our life and physical fitness. We need to be more body positive and understand that each person‘s body is built differently, and that every person has different goals in which they feel are achievable. Every day we have the opportunity to make ourselves a better person than we were the day before whether that means physically emotionally mentally or socially we have this opportunity every single day and as long as you are trying to achieve that you are winning as far as I’m concerned. In my mind, I will never be perfect, I will always be a fat piece of shit. But I can be perfect for my kids and the ones that I love and that is all that matters. Love the skin that you are in….love the change that you are striving for. And loved one another and understand that we are all different, and that we are all in a different place. I have been training and working out for nearly 30 years and mentally it is my safe space, don’t be afraid to teach your kids the physical and mental benefits of exercise. It’ll do nothing but benefit them. Check in on your brothers #mensmentalhealthawarenessmonth2026

Well my turkey season ended a couple weeks ago! Stayed local this year and made some amazing memories with some old friends. Only hunted 8 days total, 10 birds came home with us. But my favorite was my son spent his first sunrise chasing the kings of spring with me this year! Great year with great people, looking forward to next spring! #wolfblood #nwtf #cantstoptheflop by @j_benrn

My first Murph on the water came with its own struggles, finished in 47:12 unvested. But it’s not about the time, it’s about the reason. Be grateful, live your life the way you want, because someone made the ultimate sacrifice so that you can. Thank you for all those that served and for those that never made it home. #wolfblood by @j_benrn
