Listen Later

After years spent honing your skills as a hunter, would you choose subpar ammo to take on your next trip? No, of course you wouldn't - but the question is, where do you look to find the ideal ammo to make that next hunt a success?

 

Blake Rice founded TSS Shot after one session with Tungsten Super Slam Ammo made him want to figure out how to spread its superior range and efficiency with other hunters. Now, Blake focuses on manufacturing and selling ammo for all kinds of hunters, from those who love big game to the waterfowl enthusiasts.

 

On this episode of Inside Development, Manufacturing & Sales, Zach and Shelby sit down with Blake to dive deep on the unique challenges of running a brewery (especially legally and in distribution), the origin story of TSS Shot and its high standards for quality and performance, and Blake, Shelby  and Zach's plans for hitting all their hunting and fishing goals in the very near future. Tune in for an interview that has all the hunting insight you could hope to find in one high-energy conversation.

 

What You’ll Learn:

  • What wildlife conservation efforts and changing fowl populations mean for hunters - and for businesses who sell hunting equipment
  • How Blake got access to the mentorship and information he needed to get his business up and running
  • Why picking up a bow to hunt a turkey is a surefire recipe for a lot of frustration
  • And much more!  



Favorite Quote:

"On a journey hunt, you spend thousands of hours of time and money... why not spend the $10 on the shell so that you know exactly when you pull that trigger that your animal's ethically gonna die. You're not going to chase it, you're not going to wound it, you're going to kill what you came after. Because there's nothing worse than going home and saying, "I spent all this money, I did all this stuff, and the turkey flew away."
