Ep. 62 The Douglas County Legend: An Interview With Zach Polaske

When the term “legend” gets thrown into a conversation your brain may rabbit trail to thoughts of Michael Jordan, Mickey Mantle, or Abraham Lincoln- some pretty incredible folks from a public knowledge standpoint. But what about those every day legends who walk among us in the work place, church, school, or even deer camp. Who are those legends to you? Well, to the close friends of Zach Polaske, Zach is just that. What started as a nickname given to him for his incredible ability to locate deer, elk, and walleyes has evolved to include his legendary toughness to fight an extremely rare and aggressive form of bone cancer all while continuing to pursue his outdoor passion with his family and friends. Zach tells some of his favorite hunting stories, and shares some excellent early season archery deer tips. I was honored to have the opportunity to share Zach’s story, and we all are fortunate to be able to hear it.
