On this episode, Matthew sits down with his friend Greg Krause. The two first connected through social media over their shared passions for building self bows, chasing whitetails and bears, and raising wholesome families. After years of being pen pals, they finally had the chance to shoot together at this year’s ETAR, where they enjoyed good fellowship and plenty of laughs. In this conversation, Greg shares his origin story, the values that shape his journey, and a reminder for all of us to never forget the joy of having fun.
