The Hunt Series 6: Bow Setup
Thursday Sep 02, 2021
Thursday Sep 02, 2021
Last minute archery setup! I discuss my bow setting up experience as I drive to my hunt. I would never recommend anyone put a bow together from scratch two weeks before a hunt, but for me it worked out. Ended up with an absolute killing machine as I head to the mountains in NV looking for a big ol' mule deer! Enjoy!

This episode of the Hunt Series I give a race recap and my diet motivation. I also dive into upcoming scouting trips and a look into how I E-scout for upcoming hunts this fall. Last, I ask for prayers as my wife and I embark on a 15 hour total road trip with two kids under 5. Heaven help us!

Bear hunt recap and my final thoughts going into my trail race. I sit down on my front porch (so I didn't wake the kids up) and give a last recap on how the bear hunt ended. Spoiler alert, I didn't get one and got owned. I also go through some of the gear I've been using and reviewing including the RRS Cinch, the Swarovski NL Pure 12x42 binos, and my Crispi Valdres. Enjoy!

Weekend shenanigans from the mountain chasing bears. I find a couple good bears that I just can't catch up to. This is an in-hunt update while driving to and from the mountain. I get a free lesson in how hard bears are to relocate and find. Enjoy!

Introducing: The Hunt Series 1
Thursday Jun 10, 2021
Thursday Jun 10, 2021
All new format that will allow access to how I approach a hunting season. Rather than big picture, macro strategy content, I will try and offer up my point of view each week leading up to and into a hunting season. Each episode will dive into the micro thoughts and preparation for the fall. In this kick off episode I discuss my personal and family life, my gear preparation, tag applications on my mind, and my physical preparation.
Come along on my journey this fall as I share my process for preparing for the hunt each week. Hope you enjoy and I'm really looking forward to your feedback!

Monday May 17, 2021
Corey and I jump back on the podcast to discuss some epic tag draw results. I thought I had drawn a Utah LE deer tag and his brother-in-law drew a once-in-a-lifetime Utah bison tag! Corey considers turning his LE Utah archery elk tag in. We sneak in a few minutes of new gear for 2021 before our SD card runs out of space! Let us know what you think of the episode!

Drahthaars & New Boot Goofin' with Jason Wittwer
Wednesday Apr 28, 2021
Wednesday Apr 28, 2021
This episode we talk about progress with my new versatile hunting dog, Chief, a Deutsch-Drahthaar. We also dive into new backpacking gear, including new boots from Crispi! I have found what I consider the best lightweight backpacking tripod. Jason got a pair of the new Crispi Attiva Mid and I got a new pair of Crispi Valdres. These are two of the best early season boots we've found. We also discuss optics and mounting binoculars to tripods. Enjoy!
