It’s about THE HUNT! There’s no substitute for experience, so listen up as we share what we and our guests have accumulated through lives filled with adventures and sometimes misadventures! We want to share our passion and experience in the backcountry to motivate and educate our listeners to become confident, skilled and ethical outdoors people. We cover the full range of the hunting experience including: backcountry skills, hunting methods, gear, wildlife biology, conservation, fair chase, hunting ethics, and current issues. Through discussions, Q&A, stories, and interviews with experts in a range of backcountry pursuits our goal is to entertain the listener while providing valuable information gained by years of experience to help you become a more confident and successful outdoors person.

Its been a while and for good reason. I've been dealing with more heart issues that finally culminated in a quadruple bypass surgery in early October. Seven weeks later, with the help of my future son-in-law, Aaron I tes
I managed to get down to the border for a couple days of archery hunting opening weekend. Lance showed up for an evening even though he isn't archery hunting this year. We finally got around to the wrap up for last year'
In the last few years I've climbed out from under my rock and tried to engage more with the traditional bowhunting community. In this episode I describe my experiences with the Colorado Traditional Archers Society High C
I should have done this one a couple weeks ago, but better late than never. In this episode I describe how the Arizona big game draw process works, and how to access and use previous draw data to improve your odds in the
This episode was supposed to be about my recent trip to Colorado for the Compton Traditional Bowhunters Big Game Classic, but thanks to listener PJ Selinski (and I do mean thanks PJ) it was confirmed that the numbers I u
In this episode I breakdown some numbers and stats of the archery deer quota from 2024. What units closed when, how many deer were killed by archers in 2024, how that compares to 2023, and what do these numbers tell us?
This is a long one, but a good one! I've been wanting to get Zach Larsen on this podcast since before I even recorded the first episode. Zach hunts with primitive bows, arrows, and even points he makes himself. He's not
My once in a lifetime desert bighorn sheep hunt is over! I got the ram I wanted and could not be happier or more fulfilled. This hunt built into a dream I didn't even have when it started, and the conclusion hit me like
This episode is a recap of the second week or so of my desert bighorn sheep hunt. This time I had some great company and experienced the full range of sheep hunting experiences. From chasing a ghost ram to missing a drea
Part 2 of my desert bighorn sheep hunt covers the last couple days of scouting and the first few days of the hunt. Lots of sheep were seen and a gnarly one was killed. (Not by me.) I'm learning a lot about sheep hunting
I attempted to upload this episode a week ago, but the upload failed and I didn't know until I was already out in the desert again. Sorry that it is a week out of date. A lot has transpired since this was recorded, but y
This episode was recorded in Arizona archery deer camp with Lance Altherr. I waited a long time to publish it because I wanted to get him on again for the season wrap up, but we couldn't get together, so that will have t
I finally got my old friend Lance Altherr to stop by to record a podcast. I've known Lance for over 25 years and he has some great stories to tell. He is the guy I've been archery coues deer hunting with down by the bord
It's been a long time again. So long I forgot what episode I was on. I said 15 in the podcast, but it is 16. This one kind of rambles a bit because I just had to get one done so I sat down without notes or a plan and hit
I finally got back on the board with a nice velvet coues deer! In this episode I explain a little about my history chasing velvet coues deer with a bow to explain why this was such an important success for me. This hunt
Once again I've been too long in getting an episode out. It's time to catch up and talk about Arizona archery deer season. In this episode I talk about my daughter's bison hunt, other cool stuff I've been up to and go in
It's been quite a while since my last episode, but I'm back! Since Christmas Janice and I have been pretending to be retired, not just from our regular jobs, but also our pack llama business. No social media, podcasts, o
Josh has a wealth of knowledge, and more importantly, experience with backcountry search and rescue, whitewater and technical rescue, wilderness first aid, exercise physiology, and lots of other interesting and useful st
For this episode I took my recorder into the field to document my 2022 rifle coues deer hunt. I packed into the Arizona desert wilderness solo, but with a couple of my llamas carrying all my food and gear. It was a great
