A MUST LISTEN PODCAST! This podcast should be mandatory for all archers regardless of where they are currently with their eyesight. Things will change inevitably with your vision and this talk with Chuck Cooley delivers great information on the stages of eyesight reduction, progression, repairs, sight clarity, downrange optic options, eyewear, clarification , variation, ect... You name it, Chuck explains it related to eyesight in the archery industry. Chuck is a highly successful licensed optician, professional archer, former gold medalist, leading lens provider for our sight industry for many years and last but not least a professional person.

I sit down Dan’l Anselmo who is an expert in Bow Design & DIY hunting. He is a lead R&D engineer for 21 yrs and has seen some of the best evolutions in archery gear. He’s been part of projects specializing in Limbs, Cams, Risers and materials. Dan’l is a 3rd generation DIY hunter who has a healthy resume of Big Elk & Massive Mule Deer. I’ve known Dan’l since his first year at Hoyt and have a tremendous amount of respect for his deep understanding of the mechanics of the compound bow. We jump into subjects that I feel aren’t discussed enough about the “why” of certain design characteristics and gear choices. We also jump into some of his tactics of hunting the west during the opening weeks. He has some great information that he shares about tagging big deer that’s handed down to him from the yoda Randy Ulmer.

Josh is a West Coast archer and has a long background in archery. Ive wanted to have a conversation with him about the evolution of archery content and retail. We finally meet up to have a conversation about the archery industries evolution, early years in the shop, chasing Apple to Apple standards, getting old, staying on pace with social media, the new Nock On HQ and of course who had the Mohawk first.

This Podcast is with Paige Pearce who has been on an archery range since the week after she was born. I have a tremendous amount of respect for Paige who’s continuing to dominate multiple styles of archery competitions. She won most majors across the globe and continues to juggle her passion for bowhunting and education while competing. We dive into so many topics relating to mentors, the mental game, fundamentals, elite level competition, some archery history and much more.

This podcast is with one of the leading ladies of the bowhunting community who has climbed the ladder in the industry. I’ve gained a lot of respect for Jessica just in the decade I’ve seen her in the industry. I think it’s important that more women and youth get into the outdoors but more importantly, stay there. Jess takes me down her timeline of her first hunts with her dad to being mentored by one of mine as well. This is a great podcast discussing personal pressure, growing up in bowhunting and unlocking new doors in the industry. Jessica is currently the Brand Relations Manager for Montana Knife Company.

This Podcast is with PJ Reilly from Lancaster Archery Supply. PJ is very a familiar face in the archery industry and such an addictive personality. He’s covered more pro events as a commentator than I can remember. We talked about our upcoming takeover event and then I got to know more about Lancaster County and the OG archery spots.

This podcast is a must listen for the archery community. I’m speaking with James Yates who is an Engineer, Backcountry Outdoorsman, Technical Writer, Husband/Father and Accomplished Hunter. James is fascinated with archery accuracy and forgiveness and finding non bias information that will help those who need it in the archery community. James just conducted a great arrow test in conjunction with Precision Cut Archery & Easton Archery collecting data of several aspects of arrow flight. In particular, to study how an arrow’s components (vanes, shaft diameter, shaft length, point tip type, etc.) affect ballistic properties such as aerodynamic drag and restorative lift (how an out-of-tune arrow corrects itself), and therefore, how an arrow build can be optimized for specific purposes, such as hunting different species (with different broadheads) and various target archery events. What I appreciated about this test is that Easton has revealed their bullet proof shooting machine for the first time publicly giving the consumers to archery a deeper look at what testing methods are usually happening behind the scenes. James and the team were at the Easton Foundation Center documenting evidence of different aspects of arrow flight, cause and affects, downrange ballistics, pairing vanes & broadheads. This podcast tees up the information that will later be released for all to see.
