Earl Strohl - Cutter Stabilizers| Antelope Obsession | Building an American-Made Archery Brand

A passionate outdoorsman, conservationist, and entrepreneur, Earl shares how Cutter Stabilizers grew from a simple need in the antelope fields into one of the most respected names in hunting-specific archery equipment. He discusses his commitment to building durable, U.S.-sourced products, why authenticity matters more than marketing, and his decision not to rely on celebrity endorsements—even from customers like Joe Rogan. The conversation goes far beyond bowhunting and business. Earl opens up about growing up in Denver, his journey to more than nine years of sobriety, his background in exercise science and personal training, learning machining and product development, and the lessons he’s gained through faith, accountability, entrepreneurship, and overcoming grief following the loss of his sister. Bobby and Earl also dive deep into archery performance, the advantages of two-bar stabilizer systems, antelope hunting, conservation, fitness, and what’s next for Cutter—including upcoming Half Face Blades collaborations, TAC Durango, a new six-arrow quiver, and limited-edition color releases. On this episode of The Mountain Side Podcast, Bobby Marshall sits down with Earl Strohl, founder and creator of Cutter Stabilizers, the American-made archery brand helping revolutionize the backcountry bowhunting world. This is an honest conversation about purpose, resilience, innovation, and the relentless pursuit of building something that lasts—all while staying true to your values and your passion for the outdoors.
