Adam Foss is more than just a guy with a camera. He's a Photographer, yes, and a Hunter and Film Maker, but more than that. Adam has that little extra something, that "x factor," as I call it in the episode, that makes him an ARTIST and a visual storyteller.

Adam works with companies like Sitka Gear, YETI, and Gerber to name a few, and he is the youngest person to ever get a sheep slam with a bow, but above all that he's just an interesting and very knowledgeable person, full of life.

I think you enjoy this episode in which we talk about everything from why we tell stories all the way down to the, rubber-meets-the-road details of exactly how we do so.

It's no secret, I'm a newbie when it comes to hunting bears out west, this will be my first season. This is an easy tag to get and a hunt that is growing in popularity, so I thought it would be a good idea to get an expert on the show and pick his brain all about hunting bears out west in the spring!

Brandon Purcell, @durango.boone on IG, is a professional bear guide in Montana and Alaska and an extremely accomplished western hunter. You may have seen some of his exploits on social media or even heard him on Eastman's Elevated Podcast. I hope this will help all of you out there planning a western bear hunt this year! Enjoy!

The 2021 - 22 season was a big year for me as a western hunter. With four western hunts in four states and four different species, not to mention getting to work with and learn from some amazing guys and killer hunters. I learned a ton this year. In this episode I go through some of the main takeaways from this season. Some of my favorite gear, what I found worked well and whet didn't work as well and some great lessons learned in the field.

Check out the YouTube video to see all the stuff I am talking about and let me know what questions you have. All the discount codes I mention can be found below, now is the time to gear up! Enjoy!

In this, my 50th episode, I am going to share a podcast that I recorded in Utah during the expo with Brian and Brad from GRITTY. We recorded the episode for the GRITTY podcast but we decided we would both share it on our platforms. Mainly, we recap our Arizona hunt in more detail and also talk a little more about how we plan to work together this year. More to come on that, but I think you guys will enjoy this episode that dives deeper into my perspective on our Arizona hunt as a new Coues deer hunter. Enjoy!

I spent last weekend at the 2022 Western Hunting Expo in Salt Lake City and it was glorious. I was able to meet, face-to-face, a lot of my previous guests and others that I have been fortunate enough to speak with this year but had not met in person yet. Though podcasting was not my first priority at the expo, I was able to record some content to share with you, starting with Guy from Western Contours, actually interviewing me! Please stay tuned for all the cool stuff coming! Enjoy!
