In this episode of the HUNTR Podcast, we’re joined by Ty Easley—a seasoned killer from the Heartland Bowhunter crew who’s built his entire approach around one thing: hunting mature bucks. Not just big racks—old deer. Ty walks us through his mindset, how he prepares all year long, and what it really takes to consistently target 5½- and 6½-year-old whitetails. We talk access, pressure, wind, timing, and how experience and discipline make the difference. No gimmicks. No shortcuts. There’s nothing better than having conversations with like-minded hunters who are just as passionate about deer as we are. We appreciate Ty for jumping on the show and talking deer with us. Hope you enjoy this episode. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.

This week on the Farm Companion, we’re locking down the pieces that set up a successful fall. The guys dive into mid-summer priorities for land managers—spraying food plots and switchgrass, fine-tuning stand locations, and getting trail cams in place to start building intel on those early-bachelor group patterns. It’s about working smarter, not harder, and making sure every move right now sets the stage for what’s coming. Bucks are showing up, brassicas are going in, and the clock is ticking. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.

This week on the HUNTR Podcast, we’re joined by James Visser—the man behind Bow Disciples and a leading voice in West Coast bowhunting. What James is building goes way beyond a brand. It’s a brotherhood, a mindset, and a movement grounded in hard work, faith, and a deep respect for the hunt. We dive into what makes hunting the West so unique, the origin of Bow Disciples, and how James built something that’s just as much about community as it is chasing big game. From navigating life and business to staying true in a world flooded with content, this conversation gets to the heart of what it really means to live the bowhunting lifestyle. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.

We talk bedding, movement, and how to use this time of year to quietly tip the odds in your favor. Stands are getting set, plots are taking shape, and the herd’s showing signs of what’s to come. We even get into the pros and cons of Sunday hunting in Pennsylvania. If you’re serious about making it happen this fall, now’s the time to put in the work. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.

In this episode of the HUNTR Podcast, we’re joined by David Houser—lead engineer and co-creator of Beast Broadheads, one of the most lethal and innovative mechanical broadheads on the market today. David brings a rare combination of experience to the table: a background in professional archery and a deep understanding of mechanical engineering. That unique perspective fueled the design of a broadhead built specifically for today’s bowhunter. We dive into the 3+ year journey of developing the Beast—from concept to kill-ready product—and unpack what it really takes to engineer gear that performs when it matters most. We appreciate David joining us on the podcast and sharing his insight. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.

In this episode of Farm Companion, we’re dialing in on what it takes to make a property truly hunt-ready. From fine-tuning food plots to understanding the full potential of a farm, it’s all about setting the table for a successful fall. We talk about managing the deer herd, what to look for in a piece of ground, and why keeping your options open for new leases or access is more important than ever. As we transition from the off-season grind of habitat work to in-season strategy, access becomes the name of the game. We break down why getting in and out of a stand clean is often the difference between killing a mature buck or never seeing him again. It’s all about preparation, networking, and having the flexibility to move where the deer are. The mindset is shifting—and we couldn't be more stoked for deer season. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.

In this episode of the HUNTR Podcast, we welcome back our good friend Kevin Merrow and his son Finn to sit at the podcast table and talk all things deer hunting—and what it’s really all about. It’s easy to get caught up in the rabbit holes of what’s changing in the hunting community and industry today, but it’s important to remember why we love it so much—and what keeps us coming back. It’s the tradition that shaped us. Kevin shares what it’s like to pass the torch to the next generation, why traditional archery still holds a special place in his heart, and how deer camp and time in the woods are about so much more than just filling a tag. We’re getting closer and closer to deer season, and we can’t wait to share the journey with you guys. Thanks for the continued support—we hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.

We’re in the thick of summer and it’s officially go-time on the farm. Cameras are getting deployed, velvet bucks are starting to show up, and a few familiar faces are already making appearances. In this one, we’re breaking down what we’re seeing early, how we’re adjusting plans based on antler growth, and why now is the time to start drilling brassicas if you want those plots to hit. We also dive into how this early intel shapes our fall strategy — from access to stand setups. It’s that time of year where the little things matter, and we’re getting dialed in. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.
