EP 291: Wyatt's 2023 Limited-entry Archery Mule Deer Success Story Aug 25, 2023

Show notes

In this episode the crew sits down with Wyatt Bowles as he takes us through his incredible harvesting of a limited-entry Mule deer.

Wyatt has been waiting for as long as he can remember to draw a tag like this and, although he felt the pressure of 20+ years of waiting, he was able to make an incredible play and notch his tag with an absolute monster Mule deer.

EP 290: Adam's 2023 Archery Drop Tine Muley and the Crew's Early Season Tags Aug 18, 2023

Show notes

Adam Bronson's 2023 Archery Mule Deer hunt was a nail biter. From spooking him twice to forgetting a knife to skin him with, it was great to sit down and hear the whole story. It was a tough hunt that required some master level hunting skills from Adam, or as Devin would call them "Ninja Hunting Skills".

We also talk about the rest of the crew's early season tags and where everyone will be for the next few weeks.

Good luck to everyone as many of you start off your season! We hope your hunts are EPIC and that get tagged in tons of moster bucks and bulls in the next few weeks!

EP 289: Q&A Part 3, Epic Dating, Mule Deer Growth Patterns, and Reopening Old Wounds Aug 09, 2023

Show notes

In this episode, after giving Logan plenty of grief about modern dating, the crew finishes off the last few questions that were asked to us over the last few weeks. We had a lot of fun answering all of your questions and talking with you on Instagram, as we move into hunting season we will be doing a lot more status updates from the field and working in the office less. We wish all of you luck for the upcoming season!

This last few questions had a lot of depth and things for us to discuss, what would be our ideal senarios with technology in hunting and how Mule Deer tend to grow depending on their size.

Show notes

In this episode the crew attempts to knock out a few more questions from our Q&A and if you've ever listened to an episode of ours before, you know we tend to get a little side tracked.

In this episode the crew talks about hypotheticals when it comes to hunting, state selection and buck types.

The crew also dives into some of the most painful memories to relive and tells their stories about the biggest ones that got away!

EP 286: The Early Days of Conservation with Eddie Pribyl Jul 13, 2023

Show notes

One of the first people to take the idea of organized conservation and apply it to Desert Sheep was Eddie Pribyl of the Fraternity of the Desert Bighorn. Eddie started this faternity with 8 others in 1964 and it is the world's oldest wild sheep conservation group. This group specializes in creating sustainable habitat for Nevadas Desert Bighorn Sheep and 67 other species. Almost everyone who's had the opportunity to hunt Desert Bighorn in Nevada owes some thanks to Eddie Pribyl and the FDB.

All hunters are wildlife conservationists. It would be almost impossible to speak with an avid big game hunter who isn't concerned about the wildlife populations, youngling health or habitat strength. The crew was very grateful to be able to sit down with a guy like Eddie and hear about his stories and experiences building up the hunting habitats we enjoy today.

The FDB is a non-profit organization with no paid staff members. If you are looking to get involved visit fraternityofthedesertbighorn.com or @fraternityofthedesertbighorn on Instagram!

EP 283: Scouting tips for 2023, Porcupette Awareness and Trail Cam Season Jun 15, 2023

Show notes

Scouting season is upon us and there is no better way to kick it off and get a head start in your units than by putting up a few trail cameras! This year we may see technology at a disadvantage while old school hunting methods and knowledge from years previous are more useful than they have been for years.

Here at Epic Outdoors we are lovers of all wildlife and want to ensure that certain species don't become forgotten, so this week we shed a little light on something Josh has had on his mind for some reason. When is the last time you've seen a porcupine? For Porcupette Awareness day (Holiday invented by Josh) we are giving away something special, here is how you get in on it:

On your Instagram Feed, post a selfie with you and any Wild Mammal.
Tag @epic_hunts in your post
Use #vortexsurprise and #epicscouting in your post
For 10 bonus entries, take a selfie with a porcupine!
Must be posted by 06/23/2023 @ 4:00 P.M. MST

EP 282: The Final Countdown, Muleys That Will Make You Sick with Colten Petersen and Wyatts Alaskan Sheep Hunt Jun 08, 2023

Show notes

We have officially entered the final countdown for our Summer Hunt Giveaway! If you haven't gotten your name in the hat for some hunts, now is the time!

The crew has a good chat with Colten Petersen (IG: @heavyhorned), to discuess some of the bucks he's been on for the past few years, and these are not your average bucks. Colten has had the opportunity to hunt and harvest multiple bucks scoring over 200 in his life, and if you ask him its all luck. But we know the real story. It takes hard work, dedication and resilience to have success like that as a Mule Deer hunter.

We also get a chance to hear the story of Wyatt's Alaskan Sheep Hunt for the first time!
