 In this week’s [UNCENSORED] podcast by GoWild, we talk about music, fishing, and the upcoming whitetail season! Brad talks about his recent trip to Red River Gorge. He starts off telling us about some of his favorite moments on the trails of the Gorge that he spent some time hiking on. He then tells us all about discovering Tyler Childers real early in his career, including getting to watch him in small crowds, before he skyrocketed into the scene. He did some fishing at a pond near his cabin, this place looked like a complete hidden gem complete with bull frogs singing like crazy. Listen in to see how it turned out with him fishing it!

Jacob talks about his only fishing trip here recently to Florida where he caught some speckled trout and flounder but whiffed out on the red fish! Although he did chase a giant red fish around for a while but could never get a bite. He then pivots to talking about prepping his private land for this upcoming hunting season. Which includes moving a few trail cameras around to the edge of a nice soybean field, with a tree already picked out for a new stand location. Apparently he hit the right tree, because the photos started flying in of nice whitetail bucks.!

Then we talk about one of everyone’s favorite things…Food! From bear meat tacos to different ways to fry up fish, including some awesome gluten free options. If you aren’t hungry now you will be by the end of the episode!

Ricky and Ben go back to 2005, when they first met. Both worked for Sportsman’s Warehouse and Ben took Ricky under his wing, teaching him the ways of the stick and string. Stories of their hunts in the western plains bring back many memories, as well as remind them of the importance of capturing them with quality  photography. 

With the emergence of social media, Ben explains why he began to distance himself from being in the spotlight. Ricky prompts him to tell the amazing story of his Elk hunt last year with his kids, that Ben proclaims will most likely be impossible to beat.

In this week’s No Lowballers podcast by GoWild presented by GunBroker.com, we’re talking all about handgun history and even let a few weird gun words fly!

In this week’s No Lowballers podcast by GoWild presented by GunBroker.com, we’re talking all about hand guns including their history and the evolution to today’s gun. Alan jumps right in with a history of hand cannons! Early hand cannons emerged in the 14th century with a flower vase design that necked down smaller. Originally designed for use with arrows, which did not work well, they evolved to anything that hurt being loaded such as: gravel, chain, or nails.

Logan goes through the timeline of early hand guns. Starting with Hand Cannons that were extremely uncontrollable and inefficient. Much of early handguns was trial and error to see what worked or didn’t work. The next evolution was Matchlock which is a very simple design but with a constant lit match it was an extremely limited design. Some of the Matchlock downfalls included being put out by rain, potentially catching your own coat on fire, or even worse – showing the enemies exactly where you are!

Jacob asks an important question about effective range of early hand guns. Allen and Logan bring up the multitude of scenarios that play into that question. Are you shooting nails or chain? Everything out of a hand-cannon would have different effective distances but overall the consensus is if within conversational distance it would be much like the modern hand gun.

We speak on the purpose of early handguns. On the battlefield hand-cannons were more to spook cavalry vs actual effectiveness. When speaking of the wheellock, generally it was more of a boutique “Bar B Q” gun. Owned mostly by very wealthy individuals who had these custom built more as a conversational piece. They were extremely inefficient to shoot, imagine shooting a 2x4!

Next, we’re talking about the flintlock! Allen speaks of some of the flintlocks you can find on Gunbroker.com along with their price ranges. Allen tells us all about the different options for early hand guns. Flintlocks, Wheellocks, Matchlocks, and even Hand Cannons are available at a wide price range depending where you’d like to start your collection. He speaks on the Germanic Wheellock which was the sweet spot of them being produced.

 We close the episode with all sorts of weird gun words. Touch-holes?? Nipples?? What are some of your favorite weird gun words?

If you've been hunting very long, you've probably though to yourself, "Man, I wish someone else could see what I'm seeing out here!" And so the desire to self film is born. There are lots of options out there for filming your hunts, from professional grade camcorders to cell phone mounts, and each option has its pros and cons. But if you're looking for an affordable, simple, lightweight option that will still provide top notch video and sound quality, TACTACAM's point of view cameras are your best bet. So in this episode of the How to Hunt Deer Podcast, Josh talks with Zoe Phillips from TACTACAM about self filming hunts and TACTACAM's line of cameras.

Jeremy trains blood tracking dogs and shed dogs. They touch on topics like: 

• Versatile dogs
• How we keep learning
• The right fit
• Do dogs make you better
• Don’t rush the young dogs

This is a great perspective from another trainer who sees multiple dogs a year. We are so glad to be a part of your Journey.

On this week's episode I was joined by Jeff Cordero!  You may have seen Jeff on YouTube where he makes some really great content regarding archery and hunting but you may also have seen him working in the pit on the racetrack for the 24 car on the weekends.  Jeff and I had a really fun conversation about life, archery, hunting and more! 

We begin this episode by getting an introduction to Jeff and hear how he is in the position he is with his job in the Nascar world.  This was a unique and refreshing conversation, which I am thrilled Jeff shared with us.  Following this up, we get into when Jeff picked up a bow and started hunting.  You can hear the passion and love he has for heading out west hunting elk, but also how much he enjoys hunting whitetails in North Carolina.  This past year Jeff was the 1st Phorm athlete winner of their outdoor challenge they held where he competed in archery and fitness activities and won $10,000!  We get caught up about that event, TAC events and where he will be hunting this upcoming year.  With his job schedule Jeff has some hard dates to go in and out of the field.  So, hearing how he plans these trips and prepares was awesome!  We wrap things up hearing the importance of learning to work on your own bow equipment or at the minimum learn to tie in a d-loop, etc.  I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation and I believe you will as well! Jeff is a good dude, who loves archery and hunting.  We seem to have a lot in common…..So, tune in and listen to some stories and a fun conversation with Jeff!  Enjoy this fun episode and see you next week! 

Thanks again for all the support and best of luck out there and Antler Up!
