ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Welcome to Episode 4 of the Vulnerable Podcast, where we dive deep into real hunting stories, unfiltered passion, and generational grit.
This week, we sit down with Tracy Laws and his sons Trevor and Landon, a powerhouse hunting family from North Carolina, alongside Ohio outfitter Joel Snow and co-host Cory Arbogast. What starts as a turkey hunting recap quickly evolves into a story-packed ride through decades of friendship, outfitting, youth hunting, and chasing the elusive World Slam.
🔶 Highlights from this episode:
Tracy’s Origin Story: From dairy farming to real estate, to becoming a full-time outfitter and cameraman for hunting legends.
Trevor’s Journey: The youngest commercial trapper in North Carolina, who now runs a crawl space and HVAC business so he can chase turkeys nationwide. Hear how he’s hunted 27 states, lived in his truck, and knocked out a single-season Grand Slam AND World Slam before age 24.
Landon’s Quiet Grind: The younger of the two, Landon shares his methodical approach to hunting, how he graduated early, started his own detailing business, and followed his brother’s footsteps in turkey hunting with 60+ kills.
Cultural Chaos in Mexico: Trevor recounts his wild, raw, no-frills oscillated turkey hunt in the Yucatán jungle. Harley Davidsons, jungle blinds, cigarette runs, box springs, and language barriers—this is not your average outfitter experience.
Old-School vs. New-School Hunting Filmmaking: From the polished Hunt Masters shows to the raw, real YouTube generation, we talk what works, what doesn’t, and what the future looks like for hunting content.
Whether you're a seasoned hunter, a fan of public land grind, or just here for the wild-ass stories (lasers on turkeys?!), this episode is a reminder of what makes hunting culture so damn rich.
🎯 Real hunters. Real stories. Real vulnerable moments.
