Today on the podcast I’m joined by my buddy Bill Thompson. Bill is a retired military vet where he spent his days in combat intelligence, AI...and generally speaking, helping the good guys locate the bad guys. He's taken his knowledge of intelligence gathering, and artificial Intelligence and combine them into the the Spartan Forge hunting app. I've used the app for a full season, and used the prototype prior to that. As killer as the predictive deer modeling is...Spartan Forge has some really cool updates coming throughout the spring and summer you'll want to check out. We talk about some of these updates and more. Hope you dig the episode - thanks for listening!

Today on the podcast I’m joined by my Joe Rentmeester. Many of you probably know Joe from the Hunting Beast or the Hunting Public's Public Land Challenge. Joe is one of those guys who seems to have a habit of finding, and killing mature deer...even in hard to hunt places. More than that, what I appreciate most is his insatiable need to continue learning...and questioning every piece of sign or intel he sees. I think his approach to assume his assumptions are incorrect until proven otherwise is why he's so successful. He's never closed off from new possibilities...or afraid to be wrong. This approach often end with a mature buck on the ground and a new mount on the wall for Joe. I really dug this conversation and hope you do too - thanks for listening!

Today on the podcast I’m joined by my Chris Derrick. Chris is the Whitetail Product Manager at Sitka gear. Today however, we are talking about the new turkey vest they recently launched along with their Equinox Guard gear. If avoiding ticks and mosquitos while you hunt is something that interests you...then these new Equinox Guard pieces are gong to be right up your alley. Personally I hunt a lot of swampy/buggy areas...and am good for a handful of tick bites a year even if I spray down. Ticks are my least favorite part of spring or early fall hunting...or summer scouting. I'm personally always a little nervous about getting a tick related illness. I really enjoyed the conversation, and think it's pretty rad that Sitka is making the effort to provide hunters some protection from ticks and related illnesses by building solutions into their gear.

Today on the podcast I’m joined by my buddy Greg Litzinger. Not to bury the lead...but we drop a great way to tell if you've found a buck's core range or his transition area...stay tuned. But this time of year I like to reflect on the past season and dissect the good, the bad and the ugly. The goal is to start with an honest assessment of what we need to focus on for the upcoming year to continue to grow as a bowhunters. Everything from executing critical moments of the hunt, strategies, to mindset...it's all fair game in an effort to be a better bowhunter this fall.

Today on the podcast I’m joined by my buddy Troy Pottenger. As a reminder, Troy is hunting some of the hardest to kill whitetails in the mountains of Idaho. He's not the only predator in the mountains, where deer are more often hunting by mountain lions, wolves and Grizzly. Few mistakes can be made, and Troy has to really be dialed in. What's more, he usually is hunting a specific buck. Hard enough to accomplish in the best of circumstances. For Troy, shed hunting isn't just something to do to pass the time during winter and spring. It's a key puzzle piece to determine when and where he may kill his next wall hanger.

Today on the podcast I'm joined by my good buddy Josh Ilderton from the Untamed. Aside from killing West Virginia public land mountain bucks from the ground, Josh is passionate about sharing hunting with anyone who’s interested in learning. This season, he had a front row seat as the bowhunting spark has officially ignited in his son. Sometimes our children (or those younger than us) teach us old dogs tricks we’ve forgotten…or remind us to not take experience for granted. Not to mention, Josh killed a great buck in late season - we talk about all of this. The conversation is always fun with Josh and hope you all enjoy it as much as I did - thanks for listening!

Today on the podcast I'm joined by Michael Perry of Alabama. I was talking with a buddy about guys people may not know, or know very little about that are just absolute killers.

Today on the podcast I'm joined by my buddy Corey McKinney. One of my favorite things about traveling is meeting other hunters, particularly the locals. I met Corey in an Iowa public land parking lot…and then again, appropriately, at Casey’s. We shared what intel we each had about the piece of public we were both hunting, swapped a few trail camera pictures, and have stayed in touch since. This year Corey killed a killer Iowa hammer in that same area. Super cool hunt, and super cool story. Thanks for listening!

Every year I go back and revisit episodes that I found to be extremely valuable…as a way to brush up on things I may have forgotten.

Today on the podcast I'm joined by my good buddy Johnny Stewart. Johnny is one of the best hunters I personally know. He’s also one of the few people I know who actually enjoys hunting late season.

Today on the podcast I'm joined by my good buddy John Mulligan. We’ve not had a chance to chop it up since this summer.
