EP 231: Custom Antler Designs w. Nick Jefferies
Welcome back to another episode of the Hunt Lift Eat podcast where Carter is looking handsome as ever and Kerri is no longer homeless. We are stoked to have Nick Jefferies with Custom Antler Design out of Washington State. Nick is a seasoned hunter, having hunted since he was a young lad, served in the United States Marine Corps with multiple deployments to Fallujah, and found a calling for antler interior design that has grown into a full fledged business.

Cole Ried
Cole grew up around the United States as an Army brat but spent most of his time in the DC metro area. Having grown up in the outdoors with camping and fishing from a young age, hunting didn’t come until recently in 2019. He has now hunted whitetail deer, mule deer, antelope, and elk in various states such as Georgia, Colorado, Virginia, Wyoming, & Montana. Being a young hunter, Cole has spent time learning new ways to introduce game meat into his life and share it with others. Cole also has a passion of educating people on hunting and conservationism overall. Cole is currently pursuing his master’s degree in international affairs and political science while working for a private defense contracting firm based out of the DC Metro area. Cole, outside of hunting and fishing, enjoys training for half-marathons and spending time in his garden growing enough vegetables to share with his friends and family. Cole lives in South Carolina with his girlfriend and German Shorthaired Pointer.
