Nolan sits down with Dr. Matt Ward once again. After a disappointing elk hunt last fall -- Beyond The Kill Elk Series 1-3 -- Wardo shares his heartbreak and the success of his first spring black bear season.

Adam sits down with Brady Cervantes. Brady “Totanka” is a USMC Scout Sniper Veteran, Bull Rider, and Hunting Guide for Big Chino Outfitters in Arizona. While the conversation spans a variety of topics, bow hunting black bears is the core of the conversation.

Cover and water and Chukars are found in deep canyons and mountainsides but where valley bottoms flatten into rich grasslands, the leg-weary hunter’s game eye switches to California quail, Ring-necked Pheasants and Hungarian Partridge.

Nolan sits down with photographer and mountain hunting guru Nick Trehearne. While Nick is usually the sort to quietly let his work speak for itself, his prowess behind the glass - both camera and rifle - more than speaks for itself.

Nolan sits down with Bryan Martin of Asian Mountain Outfitters for the second part of their conversation. Bryan is a wealth of knowledge on all things mountain hunting and this episode covers cartridge selection, rifles, shooting, and optics systems for international mountain hunting.

After perusing hunting prep programs and talking to hunters from around the country about how they train in the offseason, I’ve found that there’s one commonly misused tool—the box step-up. I won’t say it’s a total waste of time, but there’s a much better method that will actually make you much fitter for the hunt

In this episode, Adam sits down with Kendall Card, of Crispi USA to talk about… you guessed it, boots. This isn’t just a Crispi ad, as they go deep on different aspects of mountain boots, and how to find the one that’s right for YOU.
