During our Expo in October, our good friend Lindsay Eichlman from Medford Knife joined Hunter and Matt McLamb for a podcast. If you are into knives or cutlery, you should check out Medford Knife.

The company’s core values are pragmatism, hard work, honesty, love of one’s country, and treating people right. 100% American-made, Medford Knife brings an amazing quality back to American manufacturing. If you are not a knife fan, you will be one once you pick up a Medford.

Saddle hunting has been around since the 1960’s. Recently, it has become very popular thanks to companies like Tethrd. Tethrd is a team of saddle-hunting fanatics with a passionate addiction to whitetail hunting. Tethrd seeks to accomplish two missions: spread their love for saddle hunting to the sportsman community and design and engineer the world’s best saddle-hunting equipment. Taylor Chamberlin joins Hunter and Caleb to discuss the art of saddle hunting and why it is growing in popularity so fast. Taylor is from Virginia and is a tremendous urban archery hunter. Saddle hunting is all he does. He really explains the extreme advantages that Tethrd and saddle hunting have over other traditional ways of hunting. His YouTube channel, Hunt Urban, is worth checking out along with other Tethrd videos on YouTube. If you hunt or have even a slight curiosity about saddle hunting, give this one a listen!

David Blanton and Michael Waddell (The Bone Collector) are legends of the hunting industry. Having both here at the store for our annual Outdoor Expo worked out perfectly to sit them both down with Hunter, Andrew, and Caleb to catch up and talk about the past. David and Michael go way back. Listen in to hear about some great experiences these two have had and some deep thoughts on how a hunter matures over time. A big thanks to Realtree Outdoors for getting these two gentlemen to our expo. 

Colion Noir is an American gun rights activist, lawyer, social media

influencer, and host of the web series NOIR. Like many of us here, he is

unapologetic about loving guns. He is also a huge proponent of introducing

new people to firearms and showing them the importance of education and

training.

In this episode, Colion sits down with Hunter and Justin Boyd to discuss how

he got started, training, and new firearm endeavors. The best part is how to

have a conversation with someone anti-gun.

A big thanks to Sturm Ruger & Co. for getting him to our Expo this year!
