    Episode #7 | Legacy, Elk, and Raising 7 Kids – A Conversation with Kevin Donaldson

    What happens when you blend grit, wisdom, and the outdoors? You get Kevin Donaldson. In this episode, we sit down with Duskin’s dad—a 63-year-old father of 7, lifelong hunter, and drywall business owner—to talk about the legacy of hunting, raising kids in the outdoors, and staying strong as you age. Kevin reflects on how hunting has changed, why the outdoors bring him closer to God, and retells an incredible near-death elk hunt where he and Duskin chased a giant bull through rugged terrain. This one’s packed with gold—tune in.
