Sportsmen's Empire - Western Big Game Hunting

In this episode of The Range Podcast, Ricky is joined by a force to be reckoned with in the mountains of the west. Whether he’s nerding out as a hydrologist with the U.S. Forest Service, hunting, skiing or biking, Josh Boyd will spend over 200 days a year in the backcountry. Josh is a Sitka Big Game Ambassador and another notable passion is his love for writing, which has donned the pages of Bowhunter Magazine, Eastmans’ Bowhunting Journal and Rokslide.com.

As always, Josh begins by telling us his origin bowhunting story. Ricky and Josh then talk about how a bow led to their connection and conversation, and then on to his profession, which is also a passion. Naturally as a writer, Josh finishes by telling a great story of his past Elk hunting season.

As you plan your out of state hunts for this upcoming fall, what type of hunting partner do you have? Are they a BIG hunt partner or a little hunt partner? What are your S.M.A.R.T. objectives for your out of state hunt and how does your objective align to your hunting partners objective? Or, do they align at all? In this episode, Jacob offers a series of questions to help you determine if they are BIG hunt or little hunt partners.

On today’s show with GunBroker.com, we’re at SHOT Show joined by Kevin Reese of Pulsar and Jeff Murray from Sightmark. We open the episode diving into thermal optics and the explosion in the outdoor scene over the last few years. A huge push came from predator hunting videos skyrocketing in popularity on YouTube, Instagram, and other venues. Predator and hog hunting gave outdoorsmen a way to utilize their year long hunting leases by giving hunters something to do during the off-season plus a way to keep the predator population in control. Make sure to tune into this episode presented by GunBroker.com to hear all about thermal optics from the view of Kevin and Jeff!

Closing out we dive into how much thermal optics have changed over the years. It wasn’t that long ago when thermal optics used to weigh more than your firearm did. Today’s thermal technology has shrunk dramatically which allows thermal hunters to be way more mobile than in days past. We discuss the difference between digital night vision and thermal, with Kevin’s opinion that almost everyone who tries thermal never wants to go back! While thermal and night vision alone are not cheap to get into, one of the good things is most of the optics if you invest in a good product truly do hold their value for when you want to upgrade in the future. Logan asks the guys their favorite thermal optic, the guys give the run-down of their favorite and why exactly they like it, you don’t want to miss this!
