Hunting Camp Downunder Podcast

This week on the HCDU Podcast, Jake and I are joined by Harrison Lee of OSA Australia. Jake and I were lucky enough to be invited to Southern NSW by Harrison to chase a few Fallow at the tail end of the rut back in April. We were fortunate to test a bit of gear that we wouldn't normally be able to get our hands on, hopefully this opens a few ideas for you guys when your looking for a new bit of kit. Hope you enjoy!!

Some of you may or may not of heard the name Brian Barney, this little bowhunting ninja from Montana USA is a stand up guy, an unbelievable bowhunter and someone I get to call a good friend. Brian is well known for his own podcast Eastmans Elevated, many articles in Eastmans Magazines and featured in many of their films on Eastmans TV and Beyond the Grid with Dan Pickar. On my Elk hunt last year with Josh Rogers, we offered Brian to come down to Australia to hunt our Red Deer, Sambar and whatever else we could throw at him. Well it didn't take much arm twisting and the plane flights were booked. Here is the story of Brians first Red Deer hunt in Australia.  Be sure to check out Brians Podcast - "Eastmans Elevated" wherever you listen to your podcasts.

Righto guys if you missed last week, I suggest downloading before you dive deep with Part 2. Honestly this podcast could have went on for hours, I hope one day I can feed Brad enough beers to do it all over again. 🎤 Q and A with Brad Smith - If this was to be one of the last podcasts I was to ever record, then I feel my job for the Australian Bowhunting Community would be done. For most Aussie bowhunters, the name Brad Smith has most probably been mentioned in conversation not just once but many times. For over 30 years Brad has been behind the bow and a good majority of those years filming each and every one of his and many others hunts. It would be no exaggeration that Brad has seen several thousand animals taken with the bow and what he hasn't seen probably doesn't exist or is yet to happen. Now Im one of the very lucky people to call Smithy one of my good mates and when he asked me to bring my gear over to Brad Murphys, Building Better Bowhunter courses in Tamworth, and record a Podcast in a Q & A type scenario, it didn't take much arm twisting. For anyone that knows Brad personally, he is as humble as they come and hates any attention, so this 2 part podcast is so special in many ways. I cant thank Brad enough for this, its amazing what a 9:30am start on the Blackfish followed by a few Red fish can do for the confidence and nerves. (Great Northern Beers for those that don't have any idea what fish Im talking about). Massive thanks to everyone involved, special mention to Matty Moore and Brad Murphy for help making this happen!!
