We wanted to try and get most of the class on a podcast after the teaching was over to make sure they feel like they got their monies worth as well as give us some constructive criticism for how we can improve the class going forward. We also tell a couple stories from the class.
We just got back from our first trip of the 2020 fall in Utah. Caleb and Clay were both with Wild Country Outfitters outside of Ogden, Utah for a spot and stalk early season velvet mule deer hunt. Clay spilt his time with John Dudley from Nock On TV and Brock White of Rowley White RV. We get to sit down and talk about Clay's first trip to film out west as well as Caleb goes over the pros and cons of filming this western hunt on a RED.
We wanted to get a podcast going with the participants of the class and find out what they are hoping to get out of the class. We get some good insight on where their heads are at as well as what we feel like we need to spend the most time on. We will have a follow up to this podcast coming soon.
We had our class last weekend and we wanted to talk to a couple of the participants and see what they learned and what they took away from the class.
Caleb and Clay sit down to talk about what the upcoming fall looks like. We talk about Clay getting excited for his first ever elk hunt as well as talk about what some of the upcoming travel looks like as well as provide some of our travel tips.

This is a long one folks, we get into all kinds of juicy topics as well as get into some really cool stories and even some life lessons. We were really excited to have Jamey here to give us his perspective on these subjects and we think you will like what he brings to the table.
Kyle Scott is one of my long time friends before I really even got into this business full time. Kyle is a Kentucky boy who likes basketball, but we wont hold that against him. He is now the producer for Wentz Brothers Outdoors. Carson Wentz, the QB for the Philadelphia Eagles and his brother travel all over hunting all kinds of stuff in this series. Kyle knows his stuff and we had an awesome conversation with some old stories that brought back some good memories. Hope you enjoy it.
We catch up with the Unguided Outdoors guys and talk about how they are building their Youtube Channel as well as how they are leveraging their social media platforms to gain traction in the outdoor market.
