EP 113: Inside Modern Huntsman Sep 14, 2018

Show notes

On this show, Adam is joined by Brad Neathery, Tyler Sharp, and Charles Post, the men behind Modern Huntsman.

Through their publication and platform, they have taken it upon themselves to focus on both the non-hunting public and the dyed in the wool hunting community. This is no small task.

And by all accounts, they are doing a damned good job of bridging the gaps that are necessary for hunting to remain relevant in these emotionally charged times.

Adam, Brad, Tyler, and Charles dive into a host of subjects related to the establishment of their brand, the challenges our community must overcome, and how they plan to help the non-hunting public better understand who we are, what we do, and why that matters.

EP 112: Pre-Tajikistan Shooting Preparation Sep 08, 2018

Show notes

On this show, Adam is joined by John Warren of Leupold.

Adam and John recorded this conversation on location in Oregon after a full-day on the range at the Leupold Optics Academy (LOA).

Many hunters spend the bulk of their time practicing under ideal range conditions but, as we all know, you don't always get the perfect shot opportunity in the field. So, with his Tajikistan ibex hunt looming, Adam wanted to take his marksmanship to the next level.

John took Adam through a series of drills and instruction focused on field-applicable shooting positions and the mindset required to make the most of any shot opportunity that might present itself. This is what you'll hear about in this episode.

John is a wealth of knowledge and brings a unique perspective to the skills and mindset required to excel under any conditions and circumstances. Regardless of whether you carry a rifle or bow afield, there are key takeaways for all hunters in this episode.

EP 111: Age Defying Fitness with Craig Marker Aug 31, 2018

Show notes

On this show, Adam is joined by Craig Marker, Ph.D., of StrongFirst.

If you're a long-time listener, you'll likely recognize that organization's name as they are, in our opinion, the best source of strength and conditioning research, education, and programming in the world today. Especially as it relates to those training for real-world applications.

But this episode is about far more than preparing for the backcountry. The methods, tools and programming covered are applicable to anyone that struggles to find the balance between work, home, and staying fit for whatever goals one may choose to pursue.

In short, this episode is about training smarter, not harder. At any age.

EP 110: This Might Be the Episode of the Year Aug 24, 2018

Show notes

On this show, Adam is joined by Jared Frasier, the Executive Director of 2% For Conservation, an organization that is serving a critical role in today's conservation landscape.

This is our longest episode to date…for good reason! Jared is one of the most insightful and outspoken guests we've ever had on the show, and this one's an absolute MUST-LISTEN. Even if that means chopping it up into smaller chunks.

Adam and Jared dig into a WIDE range of topics, including (of course) why 2% For Conservation is so crucial to the future of hunting, but beyond that, there are too many subtopics to list.

You'll just have to trust that this one's worth every minute.

EP 109: Big Fish with an Even Bigger Impact Aug 22, 2018

Show notes

Big Fish with an Even Bigger Impact

On this episode, Adam sits down on the banks of the Fraser River with three guys from the Wild Sheep Society of BC on day two of the Jurassic Classic fishing tournament.

If you're a diehard listener, you should be familiar with what the Jurassic Classic is, and more importantly, how it benefits wild sheep conservation projects in BC. If you've missed the past episodes where this event was discussed, you'll want to tune in and hear how this unique event puts money on the ground where it matters most.

If nothing else, if you like fishing and are interested in someday participating in an event that's as fun as it is effective at putting money into conservation projects, you're going to want to listen to this one!

EP 108: The Evolution of a Hunter with Connor Gabbott Aug 11, 2018

Show notes

On this show, Adam is joined by his good friend and colleague, Connor Gabbott.

Connor is one of the men behind the curtain at the JOMH and one hell of a talented dude when it comes to running a camera and telling stories through visual mediums. A chef by trade, after 20 years in the restaurant business, he has finally made the leap into the film and photography field full-time.

On this episode, Adam and Connor discuss the evolution of a hunter and how the "why" of hunting changes over the course of one's hunting life, and even, over the course of a season.

Through their incredibly different hunting backgrounds, Adam and Connor share how they have arrived at the hunting philosophies that guide their decisions at this point in their lives.

Show notes

On this show, Adam is joined by Dr. Ed Ashby, the man responsible for bringing FOC into the modern bowhunting vocabulary, and Garrett Schlief, the President of Grizzly Stik.

If you're a bowhunter, you will not want to miss this episode. Dr. Ashby shares the history and results of his incomparable research into terminal arrow performance, and sets the record straight on what you need to focus on when considering a move to a high-FOC or ultra-FOC arrows for your bowhunting needs.

If you're NOT a bowhunter, you will still get lots from this episode, as Dr. Ashby has been travelling the world hunting, researching, and testing equipment for decades. His stories could fill an entire year of podcasts!

EP 106: The Future of Hunting Media with Randy Newberg Jul 27, 2018

Show notes

On this show, Adam is joined by the one and only Randy Newberg. Adam sat down with Randy at Mystery Ranch HQ on his recent trip to Bozeman.

A down to earth, dyed in the wool DIY western hunter, Randy has been at the vanguard of the hunting media business since he made the leap into producing and distributing his own content many years ago.

There have never been more questions surrounding the future of the media business and Adam and Randy spend most of the episode exploring precisely this topic.

If you're wondering what the future holds for hunting shows, films, podcasts, and written content, you will want to hear Randy's thoughts on the future of how hunting content will be produced, shared and consumed.

Show notes

On this show, Adam is joined by Steven Drake to recap his recent trip to the islands of Haida Gwaii to chase Sitka blacktails. This was not your average blacktail hunt!
