Why does hunting out west just seem to mean more? Why does the landscape, the challenge, and the pursuit stir up a deeper appreciation for the hunt? Dylan is joined by country music singer Kaleb Austin to talk about growing up hunting out west—and how those experiences shaped the way he sees hunting today. The two talk about Kaleb’s music career and the crazy world of being a recording artist, but also dive deep into his hunting journey, growing up as a kid bowhunting out west, and what makes those hunts so special. But the West has changed. The world of western hunting looks drastically different than it did years ago, and Kaleb is now experiencing some of those changes firsthand as he tries to introduce his son to the same pursuit that meant so much to him growing up. From chasing animals with a bow to passing the tradition on to the next generation, this is a conversation about hunting, family, the changing West, and why the pursuit means so much.

Remember the good ol’ days when you’d go hang out at the bow shop just to TALK? Before social media, the bow shop was where you debated arrow setups, argued over broadheads, heard about the newest gear, talked smack about other bows, and—most importantly—swapped stories. Dylan is joined by Bryan Dickess from Mike’s Archery for some good old-fashioned SHOP TALK! From favorite bows and worst misses to changes in archery technology, new gear, hunting stories, and plenty of opinions along the way—this one is just two archery guys sitting around talking bows. No agenda. No sales pitch. Just SHOP TALK.

Podcast:  Dylan is joined by Nick Campbell, founder of Fletched, to break down one of the most important—and often overlooked—parts of bowhunting: your arrow setup. From arrow weight and speed to FOC, penetration, trajectory, and overall arrow performance, Fletched can give you a detailed look at your arrow’s ballistics and help you determine the setup that makes the most sense for your bow and the animal you’re chasing. Whether you’re building an arrow for whitetails, elk, or anything in between, this conversation will help you better understand what’s happening downrange—and how to build an arrow with purpose. The perfect arrow isn’t the same for every hunter. So what’s the perfect arrow for YOU?   #Bowhunting #Archery #ArcheryTips #BowhuntingTips #HuntingArrows #ArrowSetup #ArrowBallistics #ArrowWeight #FOC #ArrowTuning #CompoundBow #WhitetailHunting #ElkHunting #DeerHunting #HuntingGear #ArcheryGear #Fletched #TypicalSportsman #TypicalSportsmanPodcast #BowhuntingPodcast
