This podcast Dave and Rick discuss all things prepping for another DIY elk trip. Dave has been on a few trips and killed a rag horn bull last season. Rick has never been west and has a ton of questions.

Average Conservationist - A Fresh Start Mar 29, 2023

Show notes

Today on The Average Conservationist Podcast, Marcus is riding solo to talk about springtime and some of the ways you can get outside and do some good. When the snow is finally gone, you can start to see more green than white and brown, the days are getting longer and you're seeing more of the sun than you've seen in months. Now is the time to use all of that pent up angst from sitting inside during the winter and get out and do some good. Hit some local trailheads, water access points or even parks and pick up some trash that was left throughout the winter months. Take the family and make a day of it, now is a great time to have conversations with the young conservationists in our lives about leaving things better than you found them.

N.F.C. - Mobile Hunting Meets 3D Printing Mar 29, 2023

Show notes

Usually these conversations are saved for the Hunting Gear Podcast, but we felt like there was enough crossover to launch the episode on both podcasts. On this episode of the Nine Finger Chronicles, Dan talks with Austin Kantola of Genesis 3D Printing about mobile hunting and product design. Austin is an engineer by trade but loves to tinker with his hunting equipment, this led to him starting up a 3D printing company where he designs and manufactures accessories for the mobile hunter. Austin share his mobile hunting experiences and how they directly affect the products he designs. Fun episode you will be sure to enjoy if you are a serious mobile hunter.

Antler Up - Toughing it Out in the Boundary Waters w/ Rick Brule Mar 29, 2023

Show notes

Hey everyone, welcome to episode 166 of the Antler Up Podcast!

On this week's episode I was joined by Rick Brule from Vapor Trail! When Ricky was previously on the podcast he spoke about his upcoming Boundary Waters bear hunt. For this episode we recap this specific hunt and the challenges it presented.

When it came to preparing for this hunt Ricky was all prepared and did his research. However, since he was completing this hunt solo the weather played a factor in keeping him at camp for four days. Being stuck at camp tested Ricky mentally and physically! We discussed what he did during these 4 days and how he was able to still overcome challenges throughout his time there. Ricky shared what these challenges were and what he did to overcome them. To wrap up the story on this hunt Ricky discussed what he plans to do if he is able to draw this bear tag again in the future and what others can learn from his trip this past season.

To finish off this conversation Ricky spoke about his whitetail season and how his first year in the saddle went! We talked about goals and improvements we are looking to make for this upcoming year including mobile hunting, future plans for Vapor Trail rests and a podcast! This was a great chat with Ricky and I hope you enjoy this fun episode!

Thanks again for all the support and best of luck out there and Antler Up!
