Showing up at a trailhead with 17 trucks can be super frustrating but can be good news for our sport. Does that mean we will have more support for what we love to do? Ryan Smith from Hunt_AZ and I chat about Arizona hunting, what it used to be and what it is now. We discuss our thoughts on why drawing tags is so tricky now and what that means for hunting. Over crowding in the west may or may not be such a bad thing. Enjoy this episode with Ryan.

Western hunting has so many tag options to chase after but not all are available. I chat with John Stallone about how he creates opportunity for himself and plans out his hunting season. John and I also discuss why these tags are so difficult to draw and not getting any easier.

What if one day you woke up and everything was physically different. How would your life change and what would remain the same? My guest on this podcast is Derek Mang. Derek has faced a huge physical challenge that changed his life. Hunting was something that he was still able to get out and see the beauty, the wonder and amazing things in this creation. Many of us worry about just getting old and and not being able to hike like we used to. Derek has shown that even more of a barrier doesn't stop him and it doesn't have to stop you. Get out and hunt, no excuses.

I love learning about cool new products and this conversation is no different. This is an excellent conversation with Durk Stark from Stark Growth. He works with companies that are made here in the US and stand out above their competitors. We discuss how A3 bow strings is doing something like no other string companies and Flex-fletch is the only vane worth using. Some of the craziest product i've ever talked about in this podcast is later in the episode with Velvet Antler Technologies. Crazy cool stuff! Enjoy and hope it motivates you to prep your bow for your next western hunt.
