Aron welcomes Gregg Farrell of Tactacam to the podcast!  We've been using the Reveal Cellular Trail Cameras from Tactacam all season, so we wanted to get Gregg on to talk shop on some of the key features and things that the Reveal cameras offer.  Then they dive down into the overall ethics on the use of trail cameras, especially the cellular variety. Are you for the use, against it?  For it on all lands, or strictly private?  Interested to see where most folks stand on the issue.  Great talk with Gregg on this weeks episode!!!

Welcome back to the Born Primitive Outdoor Podcast!  We got the boys back in studio to share some of their most recent adventures on the mountainside, and provide some wisdom and insight from some of the more tense and daunting situations they have found themselves in lately. From failure to plan, gear failures, and simply pushing the limits too far, there are some great takeaways from this one.  Always a blast having the team in studio to talk shop!

This week we wrap up Aron's Wyoming Elk Hunt Series by having special guest Chris Horne on the mic.  Chris and Aron became fast friends shortly after Aron moved to Wyoming, over their shared obsession with fly fishing.  Chris and Aron spent much of the elk season attempting to local legal bulls, with Chris finally punching his tag first alongside Aron, and then came back in to assist on the packout of Aron's Bull.  Chris also shares some hunting stories, including his journey with a strugglestick.  Great time having Chris on and can't thank him enough for the friendship!  Hope you all enjoy episode 50 of the Born Primitive Outdoor podcast!
