On this weeks episode we sit down with our buddy Michael Arnette of Tall Tines Archery to talk bowhunting.  Michael is a great guy and one of the "quiet killers" we love talking to so much.  Michael talks about growing up in a non hunting family and his interest in becoming a hunter as a kid, becoming a bowhunter and then bowyer, and of course lots of hunting tales!  Great conversation with a great guy!

This week we sit down with our old buddy and co-host Nathan Killen, an officially welcome our friend and new co-host Maribeth Kulynycz to discuss an often overlooked aspect of bow hunting.  It's ok if the animals win, in fact they should and do win over 90% of the time!  That's part of what makes bowhunting so much fun!  Accepting that and learning from those "failed encounters" can make us much better bowhunters.  

This week we got the chance to speak to Tom Storm of Montana and we loved every second of it!  Tom holds the record for the most points scored in a single game at Montana State, as well as the lead season average, was drafted by the Chicago Bulls.  He is a long time PBS member, was hunting with Paul Schafer, is a world famous fly fisherman, was one of the first modern bowhunters, and one of the first American bowhunters to hunt Russia along with his buddy Paul Brunner, and was one of the first modern bowhunters in the country to decoy whitetail deer, in fact he literally wrote the book on it.  But above all of that, Tom is just a great, down to earth guy that loves to chase critters with a stick and string!  You won't want to miss this one!

This week we continue the conversation with our buddy Gene Wensel.  If you missed part one, definitely check it out!!

On this episode Alan, Dalton, and Ethan sit down for a chat with the one and only Gene Wensel.  We set out to record the story of Woody, the giant Iowa non-typical buck Gene arrowed in 2004.  We're sure most, if not all of our listeners are familiar with this story but for the whitetail fanatic, nothing beats listen to a legendary bow hunter talk about a legendary animal!  We go down a few rabbit holes with Gene and delve into some bowhunting history and funny stories along the way of course, but this is one you don't want to miss!

This week we catch up with our buddy Curt Cabrera of TradLife FIlms for our annual turkey talk!  Curt fills us in on his season so far and we discuss everything from turkey strategy, ghillie suits, strange and hilarious trail cam pictures, and as always, good old fashioned bowhunting stories!  If you're into turkey you don't want to miss this one!

Traditional Bowhunting has lost another pioneer.  We had the privilege of having Ron LaClair on the podcast back in April of 2021.  We felt it would only be fitting to re-release our visit with Ron, in his memory.  Hunt well Mr. LaClair.....

Named one of the most 25 influential bowhunters in the last 25 years by Archery Business Magazine in 2001, Dan Quillian was a true pioneer in the sport of bowhunting and one whom we owe a debt of gratitude.  Dan was a founding member of the Traditional Bowhunters of Georgia, owner of Archery Traditions, a custom bowyer, produced the first commercial tree stand on the market, fought for bowhunting seasons in Georgia, hunted all over North America, and was a great ambassador for bowhunting, as well as a true conservationist well ahead of his time.  We had the opportunity to chat with Dan's son Dee Dee Quillian and one time employee and friend of Dan, Buck Ernst.  The stories told of Dan's adventures and passion for bowhunting are fascinating, and we really enjoyed hearing them.  We're positive you will to! 

THis week we catch u p with Maribeth Kulynycz of Maryland.  Maribeth is the real deal and is definitely "our kind of people"!  Growing up in a hunting family she made the transition to bowhunting in her early 20's, but after discovering the traditional bow she hasn't looked back since.  Intelligent, well spoken, dedicated to traditional bowhunting, and most importantly in it for the right reasons.  This was a great and fun conversation and topics discussed range from getting new people involved in bowhunting, the perspective of a lady bowhunter, being a positive influence for hunting, getting kids started down the right path, and you guessed it....good old fashioned bowhunting stories!

This week we sit down with Brian Koelzer.  Brian grew up in Montana in the hay-day of modern bowhunting history and it was common for guys like Paul Shcafer, Paul Brunner, and Rosie Roseland to drop by to visit and swap bowhunting stories.  Coming up like that, it's no wonder he has such an appreciation for bowhunting history.  We go down a few rabbit holes on some of that history, as well as some hunting stories.  This was a super fun conversation, and we hope you have as much fun listening!
