During a packed Sheep Week Greg and Kyle welcome Ryan Holm, Director of Marketing Sport Optics for Leica Camera to the podcast. Ryan is no stranger to Talk is Sheep, but this is the first we dive into the realm of optics.
We discuss Leica's rich and long history and how it dates back to Germany in the 1800. Ryan shares some interesting facts about the company and how they patented auto-focus and then sold the rights as they believed their clientele preferred to focus themselves.
We discuss the latest innovation that is being released from Leica and what to expect this year. Ryan discusses new thermal technology, the Amplus scope and shares a little insight into what will be out in the coming months from the brand.
Of course, Ryan being a die-hard back country enthusiast we dive into his escapades in the wild. He discussed his training regime using the Mountain Tough program and how he has transitioned from climbing to mountain hunting. He discusses how he arrowed a Whitetail from his ground blind and his successful rifle elk hunt in Montana.
