Nock On Archery

An inside look at the 2025 HOYT Bow Lineup with Brian Gold.

Get ready to dive deep down an archery rabbit hole!

Brian has a lifetime of archery under his belt. Gold started out worked in archery retail for 6 years in high school and through college as department manager why chasing an engineering degree. Through this he developed a passion for archery and the industry as a whole. Since graduating college in engineering he went straight to Hoyt and worked through the ranks from the bottom to the Engineering Manager.

A podcast with an industry mogul Nick Mundt from Bone Collector. I first met Nick when he was hired as Bill Jordan’s camera guy over 20 years ago. We were both in Montana for monster bucks 10. Nick was so damn funny and such a great hunter and guide. It was a pleasure knowing him before having a name for himself. Over the years he has carved his name into bowhunting history with all the great content as one of the triple threat Bone Collectors. I wanted to catch up with Nick following a TAC event and talk about old times and talk about broadheads with someone who knows how to stack them up!

This podcast is with Hoyt President Zak Kurtzhals. We talk past, present and future of our friendship, competition trail and time in the industry. We recorded this hours before the announcement that I was returning home to Hoyt for my next chapter in archery. Zak has an amazing story starting at Hoyt as an accessories engineer and working up the ladder as lead engineer and then President. I felt like this would be a good listen for the nock nation to understand where we came from and why returning to friends and alliances is so important.

In this podcast I spill my guts to the Archery Community about what my plans are moving forward and what bow will be in my hand. I thought it was time to walk our faithful friends through my timeline in the industry. Where it started. Where I’ve been. Where I’m going and the why’s! I’m truly blessed to have 30 years in the industry and I wanted you all to know what has led me to the choices moving forward! Many of these topics I haven’t said publicly but it’s an important part of who I am and I wanted to be as transparent as possible with the Nock On Nation. 

This podcast is with one of the happiest Nock On Nation members I saw walking the total archery challenge course. His name is Zenn Teoh. He instantly had me asking questions! He's an Asian from Australia, Living in the wild in Canada after some time in the UK who is a self taught archer & Bowhunter. This is who we are as a community and nothing makes me happier. I hope you this story inspires you to pick up your bow and follow your passion! 

In this Podcast I speak with Origin USA founder Pete Roberts who has led the charge in bringing Clothing Manufacturing back to the U.S.

Tyson is an awesome young face that’s done a great job of bringing better understanding of accuracy and manufacturing to consumers in recent years through Easton’s marketing. I sat down with Tyson at the Total Archery Challenge and we dive into his archery roots but then into the 100years of Eastons loyalty to the archery market. 

This podcast is with Matthew Hays. He is currently leading an awesome team of hunters at Leupold but has an awesome background. I just loved his story because he represents what happens when you stay on a path for a lifetime. He got his first deer at 6 yrs old and grew up in a house where he was taught to use a 30/30 with iron sights. Married his high school sweetheart, spent time in the Marines in Intelligence, competed in NRL and PRS matches, ran certain aspects at the historical Leupold range training. This is all while climbing up through a corporate company going from a service call tech to now leading some of the greatest hunters on their team. 

In this podcast I sit down with Hunter at the Total Archery Challenge and talk about the support and importance of everyday brands that aren’t directly in the hunting space brining support and exposure to archery and bowhunting. I’ve known Hunter for a few years now and he has stepped up the support to everyone at TAC and also some amazing new experiences brought to you by the team at Jack Links. 

In the podcast I learn more about rangefinders in 50 mins from Eric Overstreet than I have known all my life. I met Eric through my good from Les Welch several years back and have continued to learn from Eric each time I see him at a TAC event. This is a podcast that every archer or Bowhunter should listen to for better understanding of the mathematics and complexity of the range finders on the market today.
