Blueline Bowhunter's Podcast

A once in a lifetime opportunity.  We say this all too often.  But in the case of Matt and Jared, their 2023 has been full of them.  October 29, 2023, was no different.  Matt and Jared had the opportunity to meet a legend in the outdoor industry while he was on his book tour, Mr. Jim Shockey.  Jim has just released his first novel, Call Me Hunter.  Matt messaged Jim about getting together to discuss the book on a podcast, to which Jim said, "Easy as pie."  Matt and Jared read the novel in less than a week so they would be able to discuss the book with Jim.  Fair warning, Call Me Hunter is not an autobiography of Jim's life.  Or is it?  Jim used many of his life events, historical facts and a little bit of fiction to create this thriller.  Jim flips many of the stereotypes we have come to expect from Hollywood and the New York Times Best Seller list.  Jim's hope?  Call Me Hunter will open a dialogue between those of "our world" as hunters and those who are not.  We hope you enjoy this one, and do yourself a favor and grab a copy of Call Me Hunter.

This episode was a collaboration with our friend from Nock Performance, Tyler Geiger.  Tyler and Jared had developed a friendship over the past year and Tyler asked the Blueline guys to be on his podcast.  Tyler used to be a police officer himself and made the leap to his new niche, the Nock Performance Podcast.  Our guy Tyler is killing it too!  Tyler interviewed Jared and Matt but agreed to let us share the podcast with our listeners too.  This is a cool listen as we dive deeper into how we got here and a lot more into our "9 to 5" of being State Troopers.  Hope you guys enjoy this one!

The part of starting the Blueline Bowhunters has been the people we have met and the friendships we have made.  One of our first friendships was with Scott Bakken who worked at a bow sight company.  Scott and his business partners had a desire to create a better bow sight.  Together the created Dialed Archery, bow sights designed on purpose.  Creating a business during Covid was not an easy task, but Scott and the boys made it through with a piece of art we can all now enjoy.  Join us to hear about the Dialed Archery sight in our whirlwind podcast with Scott at the Total Archery Challenge in Seven Springs, PA.

We hope you are just as excited for Part 2 of our Donnie Vincent podcast as we are!  In the first podcast with Donnie we learned about who Donnie is and how he became the influencer he is today.  In this episode we learn about where Donnie is trying to lead the outdoor and hunting community.  Donnie shows us that maybe it isn't nonhunters who are ruining our way of life, but hunters ourselves who are "shooting ourselves in the foot."  Donnie has a ton of passion when talking about hunting as a way of life and even more passion when he speaks of protecting that right.  We hope you enjoy the conclusion to our Donnie Vincent series.

They say you should never meet your hero as it is sure to lead to disappointment.  Whoever said this obviously didn't consider Donnie Vincent to be their hero because they would not have been disappointed.  This story starts out 7 months ago when Donnie liked a picture on the Blueline Bowhunters Instagram page.  Matt and the rest of the BLBH crew are huge fans of Donnie.  When Donnie liked the picture Matt commented how awesome it would be to have Donnie on his podcast.  Well, 7 months, 47 emails, and several cancelled plans by both sides led to Donnie inviting Matt and Jared on a 3 day trip of a lifetime.  Matt and Jared hunted Turkey's with Donnie resulting in two longbeards, one of which was Jared's first, two podcasts, a million laughs and the start of several unexpected friendships.  This first episode covers who Donnie is, where he came from, and where he is going.   Donnie is a biologist, adventurer, conservationist, and a hunter.

For over a year Matt and Andy have worked together a Pennsylvania State Troopers.  Both Matt and Andy have a love for hunting and a place in the outdoor industry.  Like most things in life the two of them talked about doing a podcast together and it never happened.  Finally, they made the time and it happened.  In this episode Matt and Andy talk about Andy taking over Matt's former position in PSP, Andy's pursuit of the Grand Slam, Royal Slam, and harvesting a turkey in every state you legally can.  They also talk about Andy's business, Honey Hole Game Calls, and Andy's great diaphragm turkey calls.

In this episode we get everyone involved!  We share our adventures through great week outside of Meeker, Colorado with Rivers Bend Outfitters.  In this episode Matt, Lance, and Duell talk with their guides Tel, Ray and Ben about the week that was.  Some cool stories, a few laughs, and we even let Tel have the mic for a bit to share his opinions on hunting in the state of Colorado and where it's future.  The audio isn't our best, but come on... our studio is a canvas tent at 8,900 feet in a rain storm!  It's like your right there with us having a glass of Old Elk whiskey.  Enjoy!

     In this episode we come to you live from our Elk Hunt Base Camp tucked in the Rocky Mountains.  Lance, Duell, and Matt go on a 5 day guided elk hunt in National Forest with River's Bend Outfitters.  This episode isn't about the Blueline Bowhunters though as Matt's dad, Big Dave, also made the trip and made a memory of a lifetime. We had a quarter of the technology we normally have, but for some reason this podcast sounds sweet from 8,900 feet.

Matt meets up with the "Coffee Viking" at the 7 Springs Total Archery Challenge.  AJ Kazmierczak talks about his Coffee business and tells the story about how a 111 yard bow shot literally changed his life.  In a world full of bad guys like the Blueline guys see daily, AJ's positive/upbeat attitude is a breath of fresh air.  Enjoy the listen and keep your eye out for Jennings Java near you!
