On this episode, Mitchell Fox welcomes his first live guest—Mitchell Kearns, a longtime friend and Technology Director with the Iowa Small Business Development Center. The two discuss how they met through LogIQ Hunt, Mitchell Fox’s startup focused on helping hunters. They dive into what it takes to launch a business, the challenges of balancing work, family, and hunting, and how the outdoors has shaped their lives.

From deer hunting stories and business mentorship to late nights in the tree stand and the evolution of hunting culture, this conversation blends entrepreneurship, hunting passion, and some good laughs. Plus, hear about some of their most frustrating and embarrassing moments in the woods.

Whether you’re a hunter, entrepreneur, or just someone who loves a real conversation—this one’s for you.

In the debut episode of A Hunter’s Legacy, host Mitchell Fox introduces himself and explains the vision behind the podcast. He shares his background growing up in the flat river bottoms of North Central Iowa, where hunting was more about party pushes than bow stands. Mitchell talks through his journey from shotgun seasons to becoming a bowhunter, all while juggling a full-time job and launching his hunting app, LogIQ Hunt.

This episode is packed with personal stories—some humbling, some hilarious—including a lost set of arrows, an arrow lodged in the top of a grainery, and the hunt that made him fall in love with bowhunting. Mitchell also explains why this show is focused on everyday hunters, not industry pros, and how your stories will help shape both the podcast and the hunting app he’s building.

It’s the only solo episode of the series and sets the tone for what’s to come: real hunters, real stories, and a platform built for the average Joe.
