EP 525: Dealing with Low Back Pain As You Ramp Up Your Training (Repost) Mar 17, 2024

Well, it seems like spring has finally arrived and that means it’s time to start getting serious about this season’s hunt prep. Meaning, you should be dialling back the strength focused workouts and introducing more rucking or running. With this, low back pain can be a common complaint. The lower abdominals are key to a pain free low back so, in this (reposted) episode, Wardo explains how to train and assess them, and get that low back ready for the backcountry.

On this show, Adam is joined by Josh McKenzie, who lives in Ontario, Canada and runs Caribou Media Outdoors.

Although Josh has had a longstanding passion for archery, he didn’t start hunting until a few years ago. But like many that find hunting later in life, Josh has fully committed himself to this lifestyle.

Josh shares a number of hunting stories, including his first elk hunt out west in BC, as well as his perspective on where the community is at, what it’s like getting started, the challenges of finding trustworthy mentors and advice, and how he thinks about interacting with non-hunters.

EP 522: Prepared for the Worst with CTOMS Inc. Feb 23, 2024

On this show, Adam is joined by Adam C. from CTOMS Inc., a Canadian veteran owned company focused on providing the highest level of training and education for dealing with emergency medical/trauma situations, whether that be in the tactical space, the backcountry, or day to day life.

Mountain and backcountry hunters face unique risks when heading afield. Standard first aid training only gets us so far, and more advanced wilderness first aid or first responder courses are excellent, but don’t address some of the potentially serious, and even fatal, injuries that backcountry hunters may have to deal with.

Enter CTOMS and their phenomenal online training platform. This is an area we can ALL pay more attention to.

EP 518: Getting Clear On Your Goals with Jay Nichol Jan 19, 2024

It’s the time of year when goals and goal setting are at the top of many people’s minds. But, do we approach our hunting goals in a way that actually increases our chances of success? What’s the difference between day dreaming and actual, realistic goal setting? Are the goals we’re setting for ourselves achievable?

To dig into this topic, Adam is joined by Jay Nichol, whose experience working as a management consultant to many large companies and organizations is especially applicable to this topic.

Have big goals this year? Tune in to get super clear on how to achieve them.

EP 517: Understanding How Your Feet, Boots & Insoles Interact Jan 12, 2024

A little over a year ago, we released this episode and NOW is the time to be thinking about new boots, and more importantly, how foot function (or lack thereof) impacts boot selection and the other tools you can use to get your feet mountain ready.

So, we’re reposting this episode to help you navigate how to get everything with your feet and boots dialed for this upcoming season. Adam digs into how we optimize foot, ankle, and lower leg function for both day-to-day life and the backcountry, how this can impact boot selection, and how and when to go about looking into insoles and orthotics...and when not to bother.

This is our deepest dive ever on this topic and, it’s easy to spend hundreds of dollars and not really get what you need.

EP515: Late-Season Layering Principles with John Barklow (Repost) Dec 22, 2023

On this episode, Adam welcomes John Barklow back to the show to talk about the principles of staying warm, dry, and focused while enduring long sits in cold weather.

Although this episode focuses heavily on whitetail hunting, the principles covered apply to any form of hunting where cold temperatures and long periods of inactivity -- be that in the stand or glassing – are the norm.

For more of John’s phenomenal and unbiased thoughts on gear, training, nutrition, and backcountry safety, check out Knowledge From Storms.

EP510: The Grind Behind Successful Seasons with Joe Eppele Nov 01, 2023

On this episode, Adam visits with “Big Joe” Eppele to hear about the busy, challenging, yet very successful season Joe’s had so far this year.

As of the date this podcast was recorded, Joe had cut a Mountain Caribou tag, a Stone’s sheep tag, an elk tag, and knocked down three wolves, all before the end of October. Ya, that kind of season.

It’s easy to look at someone that’s had this level of success and think, well they just got lucky, but Joe unpacks just how much time, effort, mental toughness and grit went into making good on the opportunities he was presented with on his 2023 hunts.

For most of you, the 2023 hunting season is well underway. Plenty of long days with a heavy pack on your back, countless miles covered, and hopefully, yet more hunts to come.

But, if you want to really maximize those final days and weeks of the hunting season, there are some simple things you can do to stay physically ready and capable of handling yet more days in the mountains and backcountry.

In this “best of” of Wardo’s mid-season insights, you’ll find a host of simple and effective tips for managing the physical toll of a busy hunting season.

EP 503: Pro Level Tracking & Observation (Repost) Sep 01, 2023

With fall around the corner and the bulk of hunting seasons opening up we wanted to bring this show back to the top of our episode list.

The skills of observation and tracking are two of the most important skills within the hunting community and the information shared by the guests in this episode is invaluable.

We hear it all the time when it comes to sheep, goats, or any alpine dwelling species: let your eyes do the walking. Is this just a matter of patience or, is it a skill that can be acquired and mastered?

And when it comes to tracking, it can be the difference between a hard lesson learned and a successful recovery.

Mark Dambrosio and Owen Mulder, two Marines whose combined backgrounds span the Recon, Scout Sniper, and MARSOC communities, provide an in-depth look at the human biology and psychology that we need to understand and leverage to become more effective at tracking game and truly tune into whatever environment we find ourselves in, whether that’s glassing open terrain or stalking timber/bush.

Mark and Owen also share their thoughts on survival and sustainment skills, as well as some tips for becoming more proficient with your rifle system.

EP501: Hard Yards Podcast – Heat & Targeted Hydration Aug 23, 2023

Whether it's the sheep mountains in August or the elk woods in early/mid September, it can be damned hot and it’s not hard to sweat your way to cramped muscles and a miserable time when you’re carrying a pack and hiking through the backcountry. This ain’t good for your hunting chances.

Wardo goes over how to figure out your hourly sweat rate and how to hydrate appropriately. Hint, plain old water isn’t always the best answer.

Wardo continues his myth busting by covering a very commonly diagnosed problem for people with chronic low-back pain: anterior pelvic tilt.

Although it’s true that anterior pelvic tilt can be a total pain in the ass, it likely isn’t the root cause of your pain. If you have been told that this is the cause of your back pain you have been lied to.

Similar to the last episode, control of the muscles that support and change the position of your back is the most important factor. Listen up to get some tips and insights that will actually help you manage this issue.

Welcome to Episode 4 of our six-part limited series called Mountain Made with CANIS.

In this episode, Marcel provides his thoughts and insights on how to select and create the highest performing sleep system for wherever and whenever you hunt.

The reality is, we can get a lot of things wrong with our gear, but our sleep system isn’t one of them. The longer you’re out there, the more important sleep, rest, and recovery become. You can be fit and/or tough AF but, at some point poor sleep will catch up with you.

If you’ve been considering making some changes to this critical part of your backcountry system, you’re going to want to check out this episode.

If you have a backcountry hunt planned this August or September, or even later into the fall, the insights John brings to bear in this episode are invaluable. Even if you listened to this when we first released it, it’s worth another listen to make sure you’re keeping your edge.

With over thirty years of hunting, climbing, and skiing experience, twenty years as a professional instructor, and fifteen years in equipment development for backcountry use – when Barklow gets on the mic, it is always worth the time.

EP482: Spike Camp with Chuck Peeling Jun 16, 2023

On this episode, Adam hosts Chuck Peeling, co-founder of the new Spike Camp platform, and an avid BC hunter and conservationist.

It used to be that most hunters grew up in a hunting family, where mentorship from your parents or relatives was the primary path to becoming a successful hunter.

Nowadays, this is far less common than it once was. Many hunters find their passion for hunting later in life, and struggle to find mentors that will help them learn, grow, and succeed in their hunting pursuits. Enter Spike Camp.

But, Spike Camp isn’t just for those looking to learn, although frankly, no matter how experienced we become, we can always learn more. This is also a platform for experienced hunters to give back, and make a difference in the future of hunting.

The White Ram: EP06 – Inside Arctic Red River Outfitters with Ben Stourac Jun 28, 2022

On the last episode of the White Ram series, Adam visits with Ben Stourac, who has spent the last 10 seasons guiding at one of the most well-known and respected outfits in the NWT, Arctic Red.

Although now an outfitter himself, Ben continues to go back to Arctic Red every year, and is about to leave for his 11th season with ARRO.

Ben has guided and hunted for sheep in BC, the Yukon, Kyrgyzstan, and Mexico, and in his opinion, it doesn’t get any better than chasing old, twisty white rams in the NWT.

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to hunt with Arctic Red, this episode is an insider’s perspective on what to expect, how to prepare, and how to make the most of what will be one of the most special trips you’ll ever go on in your lifetime.

And don’t forget! We are in the final days of WSF’s membership drive and draw that could have you hunting in the NWT sooner than you expect! Join, renew, level-up, or buy some entries into this one of a kind draw before time runs out.

EP 290: Help Rebuild Arcadia Jul 30, 2021

On this episode, Adam sits down with repeat guest and good friend Ben Stourac of Arcadia Outfitting to discuss the devastating loss of their entire basecamp in the McKay Fire, a 26,000 hectare wildfire that began on June 29th along BC’s Fraser River corridor.

In 2017, Ben and his wife Rosi purchased their dream business, Arcadia Outfitting, a guided tourism operation. They immediately poured their heart and souls into it and spent the last four years building the business. After setbacks in 2019 with the local bighorn herds becoming sick with M.ovi, 2020 brought Covid-19, crippling tourism across Canada and almost completely shutting down their business for the last 18 months.

With no end in sight to border closures, work was already unpredictable and revenue essentially nonexistent. 2021 didn’t bring bluer skies for these two, with the loss of their basecamp in the McKay Fire on June 29th, 2021. Their loss is immeasurable and impossible to remedy, but our goal is to raise enough money to help them rebuild, recover, and get back on their feet.

If you can, please help Ben and Rosi rebuild their dreams and livelihood by visiting the Rebuild Arcadia GoFundMe fundraising page to make a donation.

To see the after effects of the fire, go to @arcadiaoutfitting IG account.

EP 204: A Master Class In Clothing Systems with Rick Elder of BEYOND CLOTHING Aug 28, 2020

On this episode, Adam catches up with Rick Elder, CEO of Beyond Clothing, a company that Adam’s had the good fortune of working with for a few years now.

In our opinion they make some of the best technical apparel at the best price you’ll find anywhere and are posed to be a serious player in the hunting community. If you have not tried their gear, you’re missing out.

Adam and Rick spend a bit of time discussing where BEYOND fits in the technical apparel landscape from a brand perspective and then dive into a true master class on what really matters and what really works when it comes to building technical apparel systems that will both keep you alive and keep you in the hunt when things go wrong.

This is a subject that gets a LOT of attention in our space but Rick brings a level of experience and knowledge you simply will not find anywhere else. This is must listen content if you are serious about building the best performing system possible.

EP 166: A Hunter's Guilt with Guest Host, Steve Opat Nov 05, 2019

JOMH field editor Steve Opat returns to host another episode of Beyond the Kill. This time he's joined by his best friend Brent MIller; a man he holds in high regards as being a true master of his craft. That craft is being a husband and father. The two buddies discuss "A Hunter's Guilt". They aren't talking about the emotional tug we can feel when we harvest an animal, They are helping us learn about the difficulties of choosing between two things we love. Between family, friends, and a plethora of outdoor interests, it can be hard to know where to be. Can we take advantage of the nice weather or do we stay in town with the family? Do we want to spend a day with our trusty hunting dog or should we go hunt deer? Can we hunt alone or do we take the kid hunting?!?! How do we choose?!?! Brent and Steve talk about their experiences with "A hunter's guilt" and let us know that it's natural and healthy for us to experience it. In fact, we are lucky that we do. Then they divulge a series of tools they use to navigate it such as: Build a quiver of hunting spots and stands; Know how to fill your cup; Prepare to be all-in when you get home; be honest with your timelines; Be present while you are home; Let your values guide your actions; Most importantly, build a team that can support you and hold you accountable. Enjoy this episode. If you find that you relate to this topic, please engage with us and share your experiences, tools and ideas. Steve and Brent have a big project in the works to keep educating outdoor mentors and parents. Follow them at @AlaskanOdysseys or www.AlpineHobos.com

Oh, and we’re making a film about it too.

Adam and James dig into a slew of topics including, his time in the Marine Corps, what it was like returning to the ranch after going to war, how women are often misrepresented in the hunting and fishing communities, predator hunting, and more than a few tangents related to all these topics and more.

This one is pure straight talk from a salt of the earth dude.

EP 135: Yet Another Winter Goat Hunt with Nolan Osborne Mar 01, 2019

This as close to breaking news as you’re going to get in our world!

On this show, Adam and Nolan catch-up within hours of Nolan’s return from the North Coast mountains where he was, yet again, chasing long-haired billies.

This was a very different trip than the hunt profiled in last year’s Toeing the Line film and a good example of just how variable mountain goat hunting can be. To say Nolan’s had a good couple of years would be one hell of an understatement…

John was one half of a two-man team that made the first American unsupported, 100% human powered expedition to the North Pole in 2009.

It took them 55 days, covering 478 miles on skis, all while pulling sleds loaded with hundreds of pounds of gear. Let that sink in…still think late season hunting is hard?

Although not strictly about hunting, this one is chock full of insights and lessons for anyone looking to push their limits in the mountains, or frankly, in life.

Regardless of whether you have any interest in Himalayan tahr hunting, this issue is about far more than tahr or even NZ politics.

Politically and emotionally driven wildlife management has become the norm and not the exception. In recent months, we have seen examples of this in British Columbia, the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, New Jersey and now New Zealand, to name just a few.

This is a global issue that requires our full attention.

EP 113: Inside Modern Huntsman Sep 14, 2018

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

EP 107: Setting the FOC-ing Record Straight with Dr. Ed Ashby Aug 03, 2018

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

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.

EP 105: The Gloves Are Coming Off with Gray Thornton Jul 20, 2018

***WARNING: SOME EXPLICIT LANGUAGE IS USED IN THIS SHOW***

On this show, Adam is joined by the President & CEO of the Wild Sheep Foundation, Gray Thornton.

Adam and Gray spend the bulk of this episode covering two critically important subjects: the importance of high-value auction tags and the ever evolving wild-domestic disease transfer issue.

If you hold strong opinions about auction tags or want to know more about how they impact both wild sheep conservation AND sheep hunting opportunities, then you need to tune in to this episode.

In the second half of the show, Gray brings us to speed on the latest news on the wild-domestic disease front. After numerous attempts at collaborating with the various stakeholders involved, WSF has had enough. The gloves are coming off.

EP 104: Haida Gwaii Surf & Turf Trip Recap with Steven Drake Jul 19, 2018

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!

Drake, Connor Gabbott, and one of Connor’s good friends took advantage of the unique hunting opportunities on this remote archipelago, and put together one of the best surf and turf hunting trips we’ve ever seen or heard of. This was a true sea to summit adventure.

From alpine bow stalks to bear encounters, and beach deer to crab pots, this trip had it all. Tune in for the full details and trip report!

EP 103: Living A Wild Yukon Life with Greg McHale Jul 10, 2018

On this episode, Adam is joined by Greg McHale. Greg is the host of Greg McHale’s Wild Yukon, an incredibly well produced show that just debuted on the Sportsman Channel.

He is also a past guest (Episode 35) so, if you haven’t listened to Greg’s original interview, it would be a good idea to check it out, as the subjects discussed on this show, are essentially an extension of his first interview.

Greg is a former guide, retired professional athlete, avid bush pilot, and now a TV producer. Needless to say, he’s led one hell of an interesting life that has been heavily influenced by the Wild Yukon that he calls home.

@gregmchaleswildyukon

EP 102: The Guide Life with Nolan Osborne Jun 30, 2018

On this show, Adam is joined by his good friend, and the star of Toeing the Line (TTL), Nolan Osborne.

Anyone that has watched our TTL film will know that Nolan is one hell of a character. But, behind that goofy, and often laconic, demeanor is an incredibly committed and hard-working dude.

With zero experience and zero skills, Nolan left his home province of Ontario to chase his dream of becoming a hunting guide. Since making the leap, he has worked throughout BC and the Yukon wrangling and guiding for Stone’s sheep, caribou, moose, grizzlies, and mountain goats. He is now living his dream.

But the path was not easy. On this episode, Nolan shares the story of how he got to where he is today.

EP 101: A Systems Approach to Glassing with Chris Denham Jun 22, 2018

On this show, Adam is joined by another repeat guest, Chris Denham.

Narrowing down Chris’ involvement in the hunting industry is no easy task. He is one of the men behind, and faces of, The Western Hunter TV show. He’s the publisher of Western Hunter magazine. A partner in The Outdoorsmans retail business. A partner in Wilderness Athlete…and a partner in The Journal of Mountain Hunting multimedia platform. To say he’s a busy guy would be putting it mildly.

In this episode, Adam and Chris talk about the story behind The Outdoorsmans (you’ll want to hear that one), and then take a deep dive into all things glassing related.

Growing up in Arizona, Chris learned at an early age just how important effective glassing techniques, and of course equipment, are in wide open country. Since then, he has applied these techniques and tools across the West with substantial success.

If you hunt in areas where glassing is critical to cutting a tag, this one’s for you.

EP 100: The Return of Donnie Vincent Jun 15, 2018

Here it is folks! Episode 100, a big milestone for the BTK show.

First off, we wanted to extend a heart-felt thank you to everyone that has tuned in and supported the show over the past few years. We couldn’t keep doing this without you.

So, as a bit of a thank you, we have brought back a guest that many of you have been asking for: Donnie Vincent.

Donnie was in B.C. a few weeks back to do some bear hunting, and he was gracious enough to invite Adam up to Arcadia Outfitting, where he was hunting with his good friend, guide-outfitter Ben Stourac, to conduct this interview in person.

Fittingly, Donnie was our very first guest for Episode 001 and he’s back for Episode 100. The timing of his trip couldn’t have worked out better.

Sitting on the front porch of a cabin in the mountains of B.C., Donnie and Adam dive into a variety of subjects you will not want to miss. They cover his decision to stop wearing camouflage hunting apparel, bowhunting versus rifle hunting, and then spend the bulk of the show talking about the hunting of large predators, specifically bears and mountain lions.

As usual, Donnie does not disappoint. Regardless of your opinions on bear and cat hunting, this is an episode you are going to enjoy. Here’s to the next 100 shows!

EP 99: The Reasons We Hunt with Aaron Hitchins of Rockhouse Motion Jun 08, 2018

On this episode, Adam is joined by Aaron Hitchins, one of the guys at Rockhouse Motion. They are, without a doubt, one of the best in the business when it comes to film and photography production in the hook and bullet and outdoor recreation space.

Aaron wears many hats at Rockhouse and he and Adam spend some time talking about what a job like his entails. If you have any interest in what it’s like to work in the hunting media business, you’ll want to tune in.

But perhaps more interestingly, Adam and Aaron went to the same high school AND the same university. They were separated by a few years, so their paths never crossed. Until now. It’s a pretty striking fact that two guys, from rural Ontario, in their own roundabout ways, ended up in the hunting media business. But it speaks to the importance of hunting and the outdoors in the Ottawa Valley where they grew up.

Adam and Aaron spend some time talking about their upbringing in small-town Eastern Ontario, what the hunting culture was like back home and share some laughs and memories about that idyllic setting.

They then dive into a more serious conversation about the justifications we, as a community, put forth for hunting. Aaron and Adam both believe that the reasons we give for hunting and the labels we attach to ourselves and others in the hunting fraternity are not to be taken lightly.

This is a great conversation covering many aspects of the hunting lifestyle.

EP 98: Quick Hit Gear Review Jun 05, 2018

On this episode, Adam goes solo for a quick hit “in-between-isode” and reviews some highly versatile gear and equipment he’s been putting to the test over the past while.

He covers some boots he’s been very happy with, a uniquely configured spotting scope that’s proven incredibly useful, a functional and inexpensive knife, a versatile chest harness he’s used extensively, and a couple backpacking stoves to suit both ends of the budgetary spectrum.

EP 97: How to Ignite a Movement with BHA May 25, 2018

***WARNING EXPLICIT LANGUAGE IS USED IN THIS EPISODE***

96: Survival of the Fittest with Christian Schauf May 18, 2018

On this show, Adam is joined by Christian Schauf, the founder of Uncharted Supply Co. From his upbringing on a dairy farm in Wisconsin, to hunting the mountains of the West, and a career path unlike any other we’ve come across, Christian has one of the most unique life stories you’ve ever heard.

His latest venture, Uncharted Supply Co., is a brand and product line that is likely to strike a chord with our community. Are you as prepared and self-sufficient as you think you are? Christian and Adam are going to discuss just that on this podcast. Enjoy!

95: The Symbiotic Relationship Between Man and Rifle May 11, 2018

On this show, Adam is joined by Aaron Davidson. Aaron is the President and CEO of Gunwerks, so naturally, this episode will focus on long-range shooting and hunting.

Gunwerks is without a doubt one of the most innovative companies that plays in the long-range hunting and precision shooting space and a good portion of this podcast is spent discussing the latest news and updates from Gunwerks.

Adam and Aaron discuss their newest shooting systems, the changes to their educational platform and some new products catered to those that prefer a DIY approach to building and testing their own long-range equipment and components.

They also dive into the never-ending debate between those that believe long-range hunting is an ethical practice and those that do not. If you are a bowhunter that looks down on those that choose to hunt with long-range capable equipment, the latter half of this interview will be especially interesting.

94: The Real-Life Most Interesting Man in the World May 04, 2018

On this show, Adam is joined by Jack Carr. For our longtime listeners, this is a name you should recognize as it’s the pen name of a past guest. Jack is an ex-SEAL, a newly published author, a businessman, and a hunter. Most importantly, he’s one hell of a great dude.

Jack recently released his debut thriller, The Terminal List, a visceral and intense page-turner that you will not be able to put down. Jack was kind enough to send Adam a copy before it hit bookshelves and there is no doubt that this is not your average novel.

Regardless of whether you like to read fiction or not, this is a book you will want to pick-up. There are more than a few themes in the book that will appeal to hunters, fathers and husbands around the globe.

In this episode, Jack and Adam have a wide-ranging conversation covering everything from his writing process, tips for those looking to get into outdoor writing, books that inspired him to pursue his dream of becoming an author, and why he thinks reading fiction can be beneficial, especially for aspiring writers.

They also dive into some themes from the book that will be of interest to our listeners given the modern digital and social landscape, where anyone can be found by anyone with the motivation to do so. In today’s age of outrage, where hunters and firearms enthusiasts are often demonized by those that oppose our lifestyle, Jack has some interesting points on how to keep yourself and your family under the radar.

Tune in for an eclectic conversation with one of the most interesting guys we’ve ever had on the show!

93: Zen and the Art of Hunting Apr 27, 2018

On this show, Adam is joined by another return visitor, Emory Wanger. Emory is the host of the BY LAND podcast and runs his own website catered to all things backpacking, which can be found at www.byland.co.

On the site, you will find a full list of his podcast episodes and guests as well as some interesting articles and material focused on backpacking, hunting and a whole melting pot of other subjects related to our world.

Emory initially appeared on Episode 69 when we discussed his completion of the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT), which is roughly 2,000 miles. He finished it in six months. A pretty phenomenal feat without a doubt.

Since then, Adam and Emory and have kept in touch, and recently, Emory sent Adam an email that prompted a second appearance on the show. Like most of us, Emory is very passionate about hunting and how hunting is perceived by the non-hunting public, so this episode will feature Emory’s perspective on just that topic. We hope you enjoy!

92: Graduate Level Mountain Hunting with John Barklow Apr 24, 2018

On this show, Adam is joined by John Barklow, the Big Game Product Manager for Sitka Gear.

The main topic of this episode is late season mountain hunting and the gear, skills, and knowledge required to be both successful and safe when heading into the mountains in the depths of winter.

John has an immense amount of personal experience as it relates to these hunts—he lived in Alaska for 20+ years—but he also brings his knowledge and expertise from his past career training military personnel in mountain travel, mobility and survival to bear on this episode.

If you want to know what it takes to both survive and thrive in some of the harshest hunting conditions North America offers, this is the show for you.

91: A Flatlander’s First Sheep Hunt with Robbie Kroger Apr 13, 2018

On this episode, Adam will be joined by Robbie Kroger for his second appearance on the show.

Robbie is a man of many talents, and many of you may (and hopefully do) know him as the man behind Blood Origins, a unique, film-based storytelling concept. You can find Robbie’s BTK debut on Episode 66 where he discusses the vision for Blood Origins in depth.

But on this show, Adam and Robbie talk about Robbie's first real mountain hunt. A public land hunt for aoudad in the mountains of New Mexico that occurred just a few weeks ago.

This adventure was one hell of a learning experience for Robbie, as it was not only his first mountain hunt but also his first sheep hunt. So, on this episode Robbie shares the hard lessons learned and the full story of this hunt. You will not believe the finish to this sheep hunting tale!

@bloodorigins

90: The Fundamentals of Marksmanship with Leupold Apr 06, 2018

On this show, we will be talking about marksmanship. As many of you know, a crew from the JOMH traveled down to Oregon to attend the Leupold Optics Academy (LOA) in preparation for the late-season goat hunt the team recently returned from.

Joining Adam on the show will be the two gentlemen that hosted and instructed the team at the LOA facility, Michael Baccellieri and John Warren from Leupold, as well as Nolan Osborne who was the main trigger puller at the LOA course. Nolan’s perspectives on the topics covered in this show will be especially interesting as he was tasked with taking the lessons learned at the LOA and applying them in the field in what turned out to be very challenging hunting and shooting conditions.

Topics covered include the key equipment considerations that inform both rifle and optics decisions, and the skills and abilities required to get the most out of your shooting system.

If you are looking to up your game in marksmanship and precision shooting, this is a must-listen podcast with some of the best instructors in the industry today.

89: Our Worst Fears Have Been Realized with Gray Thornton Mar 30, 2018

Our Worst Fears Have Been Realized with Gray Thornton

On this show, Adam is joined by the President & CEO of the Wild Sheep Foundation (WSF), Gray Thornton.

Adam and Gray managed to connect in-person while Gray was recently in BC, and on this episode, they tackle the concerning news out of Alaska about a potentially deadly respiratory pathogen being found and documented in multiple Dall sheep and mountain goats. This is a big issue in the wild sheep conservation world as these respiratory pathogens have been implicated in large-scale die-offs in bighorns in the lower 48, BC, and Alberta.

Gray shares the background on these respiratory pathogens, discusses the current situation in Alaska specifically and thinhorn range generally and, perhaps most importantly, brings us up to speed on our options going forward.

It should be added that this is a fluid and dynamic situation. The news originally broke on March 13th, and since then more information has been released suggesting this outbreak is more widespread than initially reported. To say both the extent of the problem and the solution to preventing further infection is a moving target, would be putting it mildly.

That said, the worst fears of many people involved in wild sheep conservation and wildlife veterinary science have become a reality. If you care about wild sheep, this is a must-listen episode.

088: BC: The Holy Grail of Wild Sheep Mar 24, 2018

On this show, Adam sits down with past guest Chris Barker, and newcomer Kyle Stelter at the 25th Annual Kamloops Convention of the Wild Sheep Society of BC.

Both Chris and Kyle are actively involved with the WSSBC and wild sheep conservation in general, and Adam travelled up to Kamloops a couple weeks back to sit down with these two ardent conservationists to discuss the past, present and future of the WSSBC and why regardless of what province or state you call home, the wild sheep of BC need and deserve our support.

At the time of this interview (two weeks ago), the news out of Alaska that a deadly respiratory pathogen implicated in large scale die-offs of bighorns in the lower 48 states and BC and Alberta, had not yet been announced. In a sad twist of fate, Adam, Chris and Kyle discussed this very threat and how important it was for the hunting and conservation community to take this risk very seriously.

There is now no doubt that Canadian and Alaskan thinhorns need every ounce of support we can provide. Regardless of whether you’re a die-hard sheep nut, or simply hope to one day find yourself in sheep country this is a must-listen episode covering some critical topics related to the long-term sustainability of wild sheep in BC and across North America.

087: Central Asian Adventures with Bryan Martin of Asian Mountain Outfitters Mar 16, 2018

On this episode, Adam is joined by Bryan Martin for his second appearance on the podcast. He is the owner and founder of Asian Mountain Outfitters and in the simplest sense, is a hunting consultant. Part guide, part outfitter and part booking agent, he brings an immense amount of knowledge and experience to serving his clients’ needs…and this week’s show.

Bryan has guided and outfitted around the world for nearly 20 years and has personally been on over 100 mountain or backcountry hunts. He is undoubtedly one of the most experienced and accomplished mountain hunters alive today.

On Bryan's first episode, we did a worldwide review of the sheep and goat opportunities available to the adventurous hunter, but on this episode, the focus will be on ibex. Bryan will explain his recommended destinations, outline the climactic and logistical realities of hunting in each country, and cover what to expect on the hunt itself if you were to book one of these highly affordable international hunts.

Bryan and Adam also spend time discussing the gear and skills required to be successful on these challenging expeditions.

And as a final note, what makes these hunts so appealing is not only the reasonable cost and the epic adventure involved, but the fact that in any given year you can easily fit one of these hunts into your schedule. So, if you didn’t draw that tag you were hoping for, plans fell through on another mountain hunt, or you have some money burning a hole in your pocket and can’t wait years to find an opening in North America, Bryan can get you lined up for a Central Asian hunt on relatively short notice.

To find out more, tune into this episode and go to www.asianmountainoutfitters.com or follow Bryan on Instagram @asianmountainoufitters.

086: Is Hunting Conservation? Mar 09, 2018

On this episode, Adam is joined by Mark Hall. At the simplest level Mark is a scientist. He holds a master's degree in environmental science and is a Professional Agrologist and retired Professional Forester.

Mark is also a passionate hunter and an even more passionate conservationist and it is on that topic specifically that Adam was interested in bringing Mark on the show.

Mark runs his own blog called Hunter Conservationist and writes prolifically about conservation, hunting, social policy, social science and how all these topics weave into what could be called the modern conservation landscape.

Mark is not shy about his opinions. He is critical and outspoken about certain aspects of the hunting industry, and in some cases, has ruffled some feathers with what he’s said or written. But what makes Mark’s writings so important is that they are factually and experientially backed perspectives on the critical matters that impact the conservation space. In today’s sociocultural landscape, we need more people to write and think like Mark.

We hope you enjoy this thoughtful and enlightening conversation with Mark Hall!

085: What Makes a Great Hunter? Mar 02, 2018

On this episode, Adam is joined by the full crew of guys that were on the JOMH’s recent late season goat hunt and film expedition.

This podcast was recorded part way through the trip and includes an interesting mix of guys that have diverse perspectives on the question of what makes a great hunter? You’ll hear thoughts from Dustin Roe, Nolan Osborne, Dan Watson, Steven Drake, Connor Gabbott and of course Adam.

This is an opinionated topic and the group doesn’t shy away from tackling the differences between guided and non-guided hunters, high success ratios versus more selective hunting, killing for meat or age or score and many other factors that play into one’s “success” as a hunter.

We hope you enjoy this one as much as we did recording it!

082: Telling the Modern Conservation Story with Adam Foss Feb 02, 2018

On this episode, Adam (Janke) is joined by the Fossman himself, Adam Foss. Adam (Foss) was one of the earliest guests we ever featured on the show and a lot has changed since then. He has embarked on a new career path and the hunting media landscape has never been more dynamic.

The two Adams spend most of this episode discussing how the “story” of conservation has been told over the past few decades and how we can and should use creativity to tell that story in a more resonant fashion moving forward.

Adam (Foss) is doing a lot of exciting work in the conservation space, is very passionate about conservation and the role hunting plays in achieving conservation goals, and given this shared passion, the Adams have a very interesting discussion about how storytelling plays a critical role in keeping both hunting and conservation relevant in today’s media landscape.

081: Hunting Is a Complex and Dynamic Pursuit Jan 26, 2018

***WARNING: STRONG AND EXPLICIT LANGUAGE IS USED ON THIS SHOW***

On this episode, we feature a group discussion with nine guys, all of whom were at WSF’s Sheep Show last week.

We recorded this episode in one of our hotel rooms just before attending the Grand Finale Banquet so, the audio quality is not as high as we would normally produce, but given the size of the group and the microphone system required it’s the best we could do. It's not bad, but it's not up to our usual standard.

In addition, this podcast contains some strong and explicit language, so if you often listen to podcasts in the vehicle with your kids, this is not one to do so with. We do apologize if anyone takes offense to the language used, but the topics covered are ones we are all, very obviously, passionate about. At least in some circles (like ours), when you get a group of guys together that feel strongly about a given subject, the language is going to get a little colorful at times. That said, the topics covered are very interesting given the very eclectic group of guys huddled around the microphone.

The group includes a mix of people from all over Canada and the US, some with lots of hunting experience, others with minimal hunting experience and each with different connections to hunting. We dive into all that and more.

What does hunting mean to us on an individual level? How does the act of killing an animal actually feel? How does both the hunting and non-hunting community communicate the reasons we hunt? How do the complexities of conservation fit into the modern media landscape? It's a wide-ranging conversation, but one that is quite interesting given the people involved.

On that note specifically, the guys present are:

Joshua Skenes, a relatively new hunter and world-renowned chef that owns one of the Top 50 restaurants in the world.
Matt Martinez, a long-time hunter and modern renaissance man with experience and success in the business, art and photography world.
Mike Pedersen and Kelly Molnar from The Rookie Hunter Podcast.
Nolan Osborne, mountain hunting guide, JOMH Assistant Editor and our staff millennial.
Peter Gutsche, a BC resident who’s been hunting his entire life that’s deeply passionate about mountain hunting and conservation.
Matt Comment, past guest, East Coaster, experienced mountain hunter and passionate conservationist.
Connor Gabbott, past guest, chef, photographer and dedicated mountain hunter.

080: Be Interesting if You Want People to Be Interested with Bill Roden Jan 23, 2018

On this episode, Adam is joined by Bill Roden. Bill is a branding executive in the outdoors industry and a very passionate outdoorsman in the broadest sense possible. He is also an active member of a whole host of conservation and environmental organizations, including the BHA, RMEF, Pheasants Forever, TRCP, Trout Unlimited, QDMA, and the Sierra Club.

Adam and Bill dive into a broad and lengthy discussion that surrounds the state of marketing, advertising and social media in the hunting industry. How are we representing our community on both an individual and brand level? How do the images and messages we put forth, both literal and figurative, impact our future?

This is obviously a subject we’ve covered before, but Bill has spent his entire career immersed in the marketing and advertising business, so he brings a unique and experienced perspective to bear on this topic. If hunting is to remain relevant in the modern media landscape, this is a topic we cannot ignore. Enjoy!

079: Inside Backpack Construction with MYSTERY RANCH Jan 10, 2018

On this episode, Adam is joined by Luke Boswell and Ryan Holm from MYSTERY RANCH. Both these guys have been on the show previously, but on this episode we dive into the weeds on pack design and pack construction. From hard goods to soft goods and how every single decision impacts field functionality, you will be amazed at the level of detail applied throughout the pack design and building process. Mystery Ranch has recently launched a number of new packs and patterns, and Luke, Ryan, and Adam also review these new designs and partnerships. If you like to geek out on gear, this is the episode for you! www.mysteryranch.com @mysteryranch

078: Life is a Verb with Eduardo Garcia Jan 05, 2018

On this episode, Adam is joined by Chef Eduardo Garcia. Many of you may have heard of Eduardo via his film, CHARGED: THE EDUARDO GARCIA STORY, released late last year. It is a story of survival, relationships and living life to the fullest. If you have not seen this film, it is a true must watch.

Eduardo’s story is interesting to say the least. After being electrocuted by 2400 volts of electricity in a freak hunting accident, Eduardo’s life was forever changed. The film is, outwardly, about that unfortunate event but more importantly covers Eduardo's life journey before and after the accident. From his paradoxically challenging and charmed life leading up to the accident to the unbelievably difficult and inspirational recovery process he had to endure, this is a story that will impact you.

Adam and Eduardo dive into a host of sub-themes covered in the film, and there is no question that this podcast is a heavy and deep exploration of what it means to experience life in the fullest sense, regardless of the cards you are dealt.

Eduardo is also a very avid hunter and outdoorsman in general, on top of being a highly accomplished chef and businessman. He has worked with some of the brands we work with, like Mystery Ranch and Schnee’s, for quite some time. He is a Brand Ambassador for Mystery Ranch and, in my opinion, they couldn’t have asked for a better ambassador to represent their company and our community.

077: Becoming a Hybrid Athlete with Alex Viada Dec 29, 2017

On this episode, Adam is joined by Alex Viada. Alex is the founder and head coach at Complete Human Performance and the author of a book called THE HYBRID ATHLETE.

That book and the concepts proposed within that book are some of the most applicable to the mountain or backcountry hunting community we have yet to come across. So, in this podcast Alex, and Adam, dive into the concepts within the Hybrid Athlete framework and dispel many of the myths that surround the concurrent (as in at the same time) utilization of strength and endurance training to achieve a desired outcome in any outdoors pursuit.

Regardless of how serious you take your mountain or backcountry hunting preparation in the physical sense, this is worth the listen. Alex gets to the core of what it takes to adequately prepare for extended backcountry hunts, and most importantly, maintain performance, durability and longevity, over a hunt, a hunting season and a lifetime of chasing mountain game.

Adam also gets Alex’s thoughts on nutrition and hydration, another area where Alex is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced. He shares some insights on hydration that you won’t want to miss, so you’ll want to hang on for that bit that comes at the end of the podcast.

We did deal with a bit of a connection issue at times, it's sporadic and doesn't last long when it does come up, but if you do get annoyed just bear down through those parts, as it will be well worth the mild annoyance given Alex’s expertise. Enjoy!

076: The BC Grizzly Hunting Ban - What Lies Beyond? Dec 22, 2017

***WARNING: SOME STRONG LANGUAGE IS USED (SPARINGLY) IN THIS PODCAST***

On this episode, Adam is joined by Chris Barker. Chris appeared on the podcast previously when we did our swap-cast with the Rookie Hunter guys, but he is back to discuss the auspicious news out of BC this week—the outright ban on all grizzly hunting province-wide effective immediately.

Until Monday's announcement the grizzly hunt was to continue to be permitted in most areas, albeit with some significant alterations to the regulations, but the recently elected provincial government went back on their word and pushed this decision through, to the surprise of everyone in the hunting and conservation community. This decision went against numerous expert and scientific recommendations that supported the unquestionable sustainability of a continued grizzly hunt.

Instead, the government, in an authoritarian move, decided to place a higher value on emotion and manipulated statistics, than science and true conservation. This decision was steered by a dedicated and highly sophisticated propaganda campaign mounted by numerous anti-hunting organizations designed to incite emotional and moral opposition from the uninformed non-hunting public.

So, despite the fact this topic has been covered on the show in the past, the landscape has changed drastically. Adam and Chris are going to discuss what lies beyond this auspicious decision. Where do we go from here? What is the way forward? How do we make lemonade out of lemons?

Chris has been an avid hunter and committed conservationist for decades and his thoughts, perspectives and insights on this whole subject are sure to be informative and enlightening.

This hunt took him into some of the nastiest coastal terrain BC offers and he decided to add to the challenge by attempting to take a billy with his longbow.

Frans shares the successes, failures and hard lessons learned on what was a true adventure through and through. If you’re interested in chasing goats, and what’s required mentally, physically, and from a gear perspective, this is a show you will want to tune into.

On this episode, Adam is joined by Tom McIntyre who, over his long and illustrious career as a writer and author in the hunting field, has had the good fortune to hunt all over the globe.

Tom’s true passion however, is Africa, and in his latest book Augusts in Africa, he shares the unique perspectives and experiences he’s gleaned from hunting on the Dark Continent over the past 40 years.

What makes this book so unique, however, is the multi-decade approach Tom takes to telling not only his stories but also the story of hunting and conservation in Africa, and just how much the safari experience has changed over the years.

In the pages of this book, you won’t find the typically glorified “rich man’s African safari” tales. This is a book about a deep love and respect for a land, its people and the game animals that roam its storied savannahs, jungles and veldt.

Regardless of your opinion on hunting in Africa, what happens there impacts hunters and the public perception of hunting around the globe. Tom’s book and this interview are not to be missed!

To view a FREE digital sample of the article please visit the link below or go to www.journalofmountainhunting.com and click on the SHOP tab and scroll down to the VIEW TEASER section at the bottom of the page.

The article itself includes lists and illustrations of the equipment and knots discussed in this podcast so be sure to check it out after listening to the show.

If you’re a dedicated mountain hunter, you can handle yourself in the backcountry. But there is one vastly underappreciated skillset that is lacking in our community: rope handling and knot skills.

If you prefer to chase sheep, goats and mule deer in the alpine then at some point in your hunting career, you’re likely to find yourself in a position where the tools and skills covered in this podcast (and article) could save your hunt, and maybe even your life.

This is a short but highly informative episode featuring a proven system and skillset for handling less than ideal situations in the backcountry.

Adam and Dan dive into the complexities, struggles, and challenges of modern manhood. What is expected of the modern man? How do we effectively address and solve the problems we all face in our careers, relationships, and inner-selves? Why do so many modern men battle depression, commit suicide and turn to substance abuse to self-medicate? Why do so many of us escape into the wilderness to find purpose and fulfillment? Dan is not afraid to tackle these questions head on. EVRYMAN represents the culmination of Dan’s life’s work and experiences working with men, young and old, to find their way in an increasingly confusing and complex world.

058: Grizzly Bear Hunting and the Future of Science Based Wildlife Management Aug 18, 2017

As some of you may have heard, earlier this week the new provincial government of BC implemented a ban on the so-called "trophy" hunting of grizzly bears province wide. This ban goes into effect Nov. 30th, 2017. This decision represents an utter and complete disregard for science based wildlife management and should be concerning to every hunter that believes in the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation. A system that has saved countless species from the brink of extinction. Virtually every news report clearly outlines the fact that this decision was not based on informed, science based data but on the emotional and uninformed whims of public opinion. An opinion that has been heavily influenced and nefariously misled by the PR campaigns of extremist NGO's that will stop at nothing to see the legal and sustainable hunting of many big game species abolished across Canada and the US. In this podcast, Adam tackles this decision and the underhanded PR tactics of the NGO’s that have so effectively swayed public opinion on this matter. If you care about the future of ALL hunting opportunities this is an important episode to listen to regardless of your personal opinions on grizzly bear hunting.

He and his business partner Scott Robinson co-founded First Lite in 2007 and were the first guys to see the potential of merino wool in the hunting apparel space. Since then, they have quietly but confidently built out an incredible apparel line-up from base layers to bombproof outerwear, all from small town Idaho where they have epic hunting, fishing and snowsports out their backdoor. We get into a variety of topics, from the truth about waterproof membranes, to the company’s conservation efforts as well as the development process behind their Fusion pattern and the exciting additions to their 2016 line-up. Kenton’s a great guy that always shoots straight, figuratively that is, and we have a great time digging in on all things First Lite.
