Show Notes:
- Funny Jokes. <- can I get anymore obvious?

In this episode, Scott and I (Travis) talked about what we expect this opening weekend for archery deer season 2016, here, in Georgia. Hunters in other states have already started filling the freezer and congrats to them, but it’s now our turn to “Get ‘er Done”. We talked about some of the things that we’ll be using this year in the woods as part of our setup and a few tips that we’ve learned along the way. We’re both hunting in different locations in the state of Georgia and kind of have a rival on who is going to put one down first. It won’t be easy, it will be hot, but regardless of the weather we will be hunting.
Stay Save, Hunt Smart – Not Hard and as Larry the Cable Guy would say it.... Get ‘er Done! Show Notes:
- We went over a few things that we personally are doing and changing up for our own hunting situation and some ideology that we both agree on about hunting and hunters.
Travis’s Setup:
- Bow: Mathews
- Broadheads: SlickTricks
- Clothing: 46Rail Jersey and old camo pants
- Stand: Millennium Stands M100u Hand-On
- Safety Harness: Trophyline Body Armour
Scott’s Setup:
- Bow: Elite
- Broadheads: G5 Montec
- Clothing: 46Rail Jersey and old camo cutoffs
- Stand: Halk
- Safety Harness: Trophyline Body Armour

Anthony Dixon is back to share one of his extreme hunting trips that he took with Michael Waddell on Bone Collector back in 2011. It was an Adak, Alaska Caribou hunt. If you’ve been following our show for a while, you know that a Caribou hunt in Alaska is my Top-Of-The-Bucket-List hunts so needless to say (but I’m going to) this episode was something that I was really looking forward to recording. It was a pleasure to hear Anthony’s take on the whole experience because he set the stage really well on what it was like being out there. I hope you enjoy!
Fun Fact:
Adak is an island in Alaska where at one point in time was a military base (after research I found out it was a Naval Air Facility), but was abandoned back in 1997 and reopened as Adak Airport. The facility was designated a National Historic Landmark for its role in World War II, although most of its elements from that period have been demolished or lay in ruins.
Show Notes:
- Adak means: The Birthplace of the Winds.
- This is a do it yourself type of hunt, but it’s very affordable for the average hunter to achieve.
- Caribous were transported onto the island years ago to help supply the people who lived there as a meat source.
- Back in 2011 there were around 60 to 100 people who still lived in Adak, so it’s a very small community or at least based on Anthony’s recollection of his trip from back in 2011.
- I asked Anthony why Adak and he said Adak is a do-it-yourself hunt experience in Alaska which was the type of hunt he wanted.
- Anthony, Shawn and Michael Waddell, and Steve, the camera man, rented 4-wheelers to help get them in and out of the island.
- They went out about 5 miles or more deep into the island and there is no help so you are all on your own to survive.
- It’s a hard terrain to hunt, because of its high valleys, large mountains and it rained, making the ground wet and muddy.
- There are no other predators other than human on this island.
- Anthony brought up the mindset of “in and out – and save” while on hunts like these, because the simplest mistake can effect your hunt and everyone else.
- As a perfect example of who Anthony is, during the conversation, he jumps right in to teaching archery techniques. I don’t mind, because he has a wealth of knowledge and I’m always open to hearing his thoughts and ideas so that I can be a better bow shooter.
- Important fact to be aware of is that you might find yourself in a few spots where there are some unloaded ordinance or a better way to put it... decommissioned grenade launchers. Keep an eye out for them.
- If Anthony would do the hunt again, he would do it in a boat on the south end of the island. You can’t pay a captain over there to do that, because they are not guides and don’t have a license so you would need to find a trade that can happen like a hunt somewhere else in the states.
- If you go on a hunt like this to Alaska for animals like Caribou with a group, the dynamics of your team is everything.
- When you come home, if you’re a dad then jump back in the role as a dad and be a good dad. Let your family know how important they are to you and show them how much you care and appreciate them.

BR034 – Train Hard, Hunt Harder with Dan Staton
BowRush Podcast
07/31/16 • 82 min
So fitness and hunting can coincide with one another, it’s true.. don’t believe it? Well in this episode you’ll find out how and why we feel it’s relivent. We spoke with Dan Staton, the owner of CrossFit Spokane Valley in Washington and the guy behind Elk Shape website. Dan was also one of the original owners of Train To Hunt. We go over some simple ways to start getting back in shape and even how Crossfit might be a key to that goal. Crossfit isn’t the only way to become hunt strong, but after hearing what Dan has to say, you might feel intrigued enough to give Crossfit a shot. Look, the goal is to be your very best at hunting and being strong only helps in that achievement.
Here’s a thought... do you want to harvest the weakest animal or the strongest in the herd? My guest is that you want the biggest, strongest oldest bull alive, correct? Well if that is the case, shouldn’t you at least own it to the animal to be at your very best before taking it’s life? It seems only fair in my opinion.
Show Notes:
Dan recently came back from the Crossfit Games 2016 and he shared some of his personal experience while attending. Dan gave a good perspective on delayed gratification from the Crossfit games and hunting.
Dan started Crossfit in 2006 and in fact, was not for Crossfit before he understood the value it can provide. This is a common situation among many people, but as each year comes and goes, more and more people turn to Crossfit as an option.
One of the things that Dan fully believes is that fitness can truly help off set your hunting skills by allowing you to hunt harder and longer with more effectiveness.
Get out your pen and pad and get ready to start taking notes, because Dan shares some great hunting tips while in the backcountry.
Fitness Tips For A Beginner:
- Start walking everyday for 20 minutes in an interval training style. Speed up, slow down throughout the walk and wear a backpack when you can.
- Look at your nutrition. Weigh and measure your food and cut out the crap, no fast food. You should be able to, over time, drop at least 5 pounds which makes a big difference.
Throughout the show we go over a few hunts that Dan has lined up for this season and they seem amazing. We can’t wait to get him back on the show and share how the season ends and hopefully hear some awesome stories.

BR033 – Dehydrating Food Is Amazing with Heather Choice!
BowRush Podcast
06/03/16 • 63 min
Have you been in a situation where you needed to figure out how to eat healthy while on a multi day hunt? If you said yes then I’m sure you have resorted to buying dehydrated food at least ones from companies like Mountain House, etc... right?Well if you’re anything like me you know that not all the packets they make taste good, plus it seems like they always have a two portion size which is overkill. Try packing 3 to 4 days worth and you start to realize that most dehydrated foods are crazy big, take up way too much space and quite frankly, don’t taste all that great. I’ve had this issue for years, but today, my friends and fellow listeners, I have a solutions and that solution is Heather’s Choice. Not only are these packets crazy small (single portion), they are also the only dehydrated food that I’ve found using only the highest quality ingredients. I wanted to know more about Heather’s Choice and so I reached out to Heather and she was graciously willing to take some time out of her afternoon in Alaska and give us some insight on her company and dehydration process. Heather has a background in Paleo Nutrition and a degree in Sports Nutrition. It’s a great conversation. I hope you enjoy!
Show Notes:
Heather Kelly first came up with Heather’s Choice while needing a compact way to bring enough food while rafting down some wicked rapids. Heather’s Choice bag are almost half the size of other dehydrated food on the market. Heather’s Choice is a gluten free, soy free and dairy free dehydrated meal. What does this have to do with bow hunting?.... Nothing directly; however, for the ones who go on long hunting trips, weight and pack size is very important and every ounce counts when figuring out what to pack in.
Heather’s Choice is a line of dehydrated meals + snacks for adventuring. Our goal is to provide you with healthy, delicious food for all your backcountry endeavors.
Cost for Heather Choice: This is my own personal opinion, but the price is actually reasonable based on the quality ounce-per-ounce, if you understand nutritional value and pack in value. When I brought that up to Heather, she made good point that each packet has 6 ounces of quality protein packed in. Remember, quality is important. Just because you can get a $0.99 cent burger at a fast food restaurant doesn’t mean that the meat and flavor is of the same quality as a $5.00 to $15.00 burger at a higher end restaurant. You know this to be true, so why question it. You pay for the best, but in relation to price with Heather’s Choice over other dehydrated foods, the cost isn’t really that much more. You know the source of ingredients is of the highest quality and designed to give you maximum space when packing in. The cost of Heather’s Choice ranges from $5.00 to $8.00 to $15.00. If you are used to buying food based on price along “cheap crap” then Heather’s Choice might not be of interest. If you’re looking for healthier options, because you care about what you eat while backpacking, camping or multi day hunting trips and you also care about the weight and size limitations, then Heather’s Choice is the way to go.
How important is nutrition overall?
Heather shared that 80% of your physique or performance is based on food, because food gives us the building blocks for having healthy muscles and faster healthier recovery. Heather brought up a good point that people in general tend to put more time in the gym to workout well before putting any solid effort towards cleaning up their diet. After a person does put more focus on their diet, they start to feel better and see better results overall. The reason why I asked Heather this question is because nutrition doesn’t stop while you’re out on a multi day hunt. You need the proper nutrition while out-in-the-field to stay focused and have sustainable energy to get the job done.
Multi day hunting tip! It’s better to have heathy fat sources to burn instead of carb (Carbohydrate) sugars. Fat is a more efficient source of food to burn while in the back country as it’s going to fuel your body longer and can help keep you from having to reach for a snack less often.
What to look for when buying meat: do some research on how the animal was raised. What did the animal eat? Was it raised on open pasture gracing on grass? Are you buying 100% grass fed or grass finished? Note! Grass Fed does NOT mean Grass Finished and Heather took a moment and shared the difference which was a real eye opener. Do you know the difference?

BR027 – Making Healthy Venison Jerky
BowRush Podcast
09/28/15 • 40 min
This week on The BowRush Podcast, we spoke with Garret Stembridge to go over how to make healthy jerky. This has been a topic I have wanted to cover for a very long time. Now you might be thinking that you already make healthy jerky and for some you might be right, however let me ask you this... Do you use store bought blends or pre-bottled sauces to flavor the meat? If you do then you might be surprised to find out that your once healthy free range meat is not so healthy anymore. Just look at all the fillers in the pre made blends and you will understand what I mean. That brings us to why we had this topic with Garret. He and his family live their life in a more healthier way and they don’t skimp when it comes to their jerky. This is a great introduction to how to start making jerky using real ingredients. Enjoy!
General show notes:
When speaking with Garret, he was very open about how making your own jerky is “a great source of healthy snack”. That is as long as you are making it. If you go to a store to buy a bag a jerky, however convenient it may be, that packaged jerky is loaded with sugar and lots of filler ingredients that you don’t know what it is or how to even say it.
Garret makes jerky either with strips or ground and though he prefers using ground as the primary choice he gave us a really good tip on how to make it with strips. First, don’t let the meat thaw completely as it will make it easier to cut the strips in the same strip sizes. Second, aim for 1 quarter of an inch in size for the strips and then marinade the meat overnight.
When using the dehydrator, you usually want to let the meat cook for at least 6 hours or longer. A good rule of thumb is that if you bend the jerky and it snaps in half then you cooked it too long. You don’t want to undercook it either. You want it to be cooked enough so that when you try to bend it that it will start to crack but not snap in half. You want to hear and feel cracking but it should still stay together. You don’t want to under cook it, because there may still be harmful bacteria.
How to make your own healthy jerky blends:
I have to say I have always been kind of cautious doing this because I never wanted to mess up the limited amount of meat I had so I tend to fall back on pre-blends to insure taste but I want to start taking the steps in making my own. Garret gave some good tips to get me started which I think everyone might like to know.
- Substitute brown sugar with coconut sugar, honey, or agave.
- Add red pepper flakes to for a spicy kick.
- Using broth (beef, chicken, or vegetable broth) to make it a liquid spread.
- Use salt to cure the meat.
- You can use a type of salt that Morton provides called Tender Quick which is a concentrated salt used for the purpose of preserving meats.
How to cure the meat:
Salt is the main form of curing the meat, but you want to make sure you use just the right amount of salt so that you don’t over salt. It’s better to use less salt than more; however, if you don’t put enough salt then you can expose yourself to harmful pathogens. So based on some of Garret’s recipes he uses, an example would be to use about 1 tsp for every 1 pound of meat. This would be a good place to start.
A recipe that Garret really likes is one he got from a website from Alergy Free Alaska.
- 5 tsp Garlic powder
- 4 tsp Onion powder
- 3 to 4 tsp of sea salt * Garret usually only does 2 tsp
- 2 tsp of ground black pepper
- 1 quart plus 1 cups of beef, chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 tbsp of liquid smoke
- 2 tsp of unsulphured molasses *Garret uses honey
Mix it all up with the meat and let it set for up to 12 to 18 hours. Use jerky gun to separate the meat on the dehydrator trays. Dehydrate the mean between 4 to 6 hours.

BR026 – Mathews Archery ~ Bow Manufacturer
BowRush Podcast
09/08/15 • 44 min
This week on The BowRush Podcast, we covered Mathews Archery with Brad Christian, who works at Mathews as their Brand and Marketing Manager, who shared with us some history about Mathews and talked about their new product line. If you have ever watched a hunting show or looked at a hunting magazine in your life, then you’ve seen Mathews Archery at some point. Over the years Mathews has developed game changing bows that give the slogan “catch us if you can” a true meaning and with the NEW No-Cam product line, well, it looks like Mathews has done it again.
General show notes:
Mathews Archery has been around for over 20 years. Before Mathews Archery was formed, Matt originally started a company called McPherson Archery which he sold so that he could produce the SoloCam bows by Mathews which Matt believes was the answer to the trimming issue with dual cams at the time. It happen to be over 10 years afterwards Matt bought back the McPherson name to create a dual cam series which they called the Monster and was very successful.
When speaking with Brad, I asked him how the No-Cam bow came to the market. Brad said that it was a combination of the Monster series dual cam and the AVS® Cams system which helped Matt finally have a process he needed to design and achieve the No-Cam system. This also allowed the No-Cam to have the Nock point completely centered between the axels which is not normal to any other bow on the market. If you ask anyone who has shot the No-Cam bow, you will hear them say that this bow is Dead-In-The-Hand.
No-Cam TRG: is the target line.
No-Cam HTR: is the bow hunter line. The No-Cam HTR is more than effective for both hunting as well as if you want to do 3D shoots. Another good option is their Chill X Pro bow, which is their dual cam system and has a longer axle to axle and would be perfect for the hunter that is looking for speed.
Mathews On-A-Budget Bow option: So if you are on a budget and are looking for a quality bow still made by Mathews, you might want to check out their Mission line at http://missionarchery.com which is made by Mathews at their Mathews facility. The Mission bows will cost between $200 to $500 range depending on the model, but you will be buying a bow knowing it was made by Mathews.
Size note... Always USE Mathews Zebra Strings even when it comes time to replace your string as the Zebra Strings preform best on Mathews bows over aftermarket varieties.
What about Mathews Warranty: On a personal experience, Mathews has taken care of me with my Mathews Drenalin in replacing the limbs at no cost even after years of wear and tear. This was also after already repairing my bow years beforehand when Scott accidentally damage by bow and even then Mathews replaced and repaired at no cost. When I said this to Brad, he confirmed that even with the slim number of warranty situations that come up, Mathews will always take care of their shooters and stand behind their product. I can agree based on my experience so far and have appreciated the ease in which they handled each situation.

BR025 – Obsession Bows Archery ~ Bow Manufacturer
BowRush Podcast
08/31/15 • 73 min
Welcome back to another awesome addition of The BowRush Podcast. This week we covered Obsession Bows with the Co-Owner/Founder Dennis Lewis. Talk about a down to earth kind of guy who loves what he does. You might not know this, but Dennis is hard at work making the bows just like the ones who work for him. Obsession Bows have sure made a big name for themselves for just a young company, but maybe it’s because who’s behind it all. What you will learn from Dennis is that he’s a straight shooter and tells it how it is for the company, their bows and the future. It was truly a pleasure speaking with Dennis. Side note, since Obsession Bows are made here, in Georgia, maybe I’ll try to see if I can take a tour of their facility.
General show notes:
Obsession Bows do a color fusion process for their wicked camo designs which is a new process that many bow companies are not doing. Obsession bows chose to do this instead of the water transferred (dipping of bows) process which is how it’s been done in the past and still done today from other companies. As many are aware, water transfer process has a tendency to wear off over time, especially around the handle due to sweat and chemicals we use. Color Fusion is a process done by a heated transfer of a dye. Basically think of it as if you were to give your riser a tattoo.
Obsession Bows are building their bows with a two track cam system which is the latest in bow architecture. These cams are a mirror image cam from top to bottom. Nice tidbit of information is that the two track cam system was invented here, in Georgia.
What set Obsession apart back in 2014 was when they introduced their new design of the riser with the shape of a bat wing and also got exclusive rights to the stormy hardwoods pattern camo. It was the same year they won the Editor’s Choice Award.
Best Obsession bow for this year: is the Fusion 6 because of it’s a 32 inch axel to axel setup; however, the Delta Six is the runner up as it’s a very good hunting bow.
Sneak-Peak for 2016: Obsession is working to add Realtree and Mossy Oak camo pattern to their bow line. On top of that, they are going to let the consumer have more freedom with the pattern of choice. What Dennis says, is if you want something like a Cryptic camo then you can get it. He believes that is what set Obsession Bows apart from other companies.
Dennis thinks that their Addiction OBB bow which is a 36 1/2 inch axel to axel bow, might be his personal pick to use for hunting and 3D shooting. The Evolution and Fusion bows are just as good, but it really depends on your preference.
Some Cool Facts! In this episode, Dennis is about to school you on different cam design systems and the difference between slim limbs to slit limbs in a way that you may have never known before. Dennis even shared the fact that most, if not, all manufacturers are paying out some sort of licensing or pertinent fees which seems crazy. I won’t share it on the post, but man it will have your heads turning. It’s in the second half of the show.
With all the good things to say about Obsession bows, the thing that sucks about them, and Dennis is the first to admit it, is their current delivery time. That being said, it’s only because the demand for their bow is so high, keeping up with the orders has been a challenge which is why they are currently putting so much work into building an in house color fusion process. This should allow them to speed up their fulfill time and get your bow in your hand sooner. I guess if you think about it... anything good takes time and so if you want one of their bows, you’ll just have to wait a little while for it, but hopefully not as long anymore.

Guest – Tommy Hale
In this episode of The BowRush Podcast, I brought Tommy Hale on the show to discuss with me what seems to be a controversial topic: does paper tuning still have a purpose even with today’s compound bows? No matter where you stand on the subject, I believe Tommy gives valid points on why paper tuning can still be a useful method. Tommy and I even talk about other tuning methods such as walk back tuning, bare shaft tuning, modified french tuning. Tommy also discusses how to build your very own paper tuner. This episode was a great continuance from my previous conversation with Justin in Episode #023.
General show notes:
Paper tuning was originally used because the bows back in the day didn’t necessarily have a true center shot which made you have to work around the archer’s paradox. What is an Archery Paradox? It’s when the arrow is binding as it’s going past the riser. The purpose of paper tuning is to insure that we get our arrow leaving the bow as straight as we can.
Paper tuning isn’t the only method; it’s really just a starting point. The cost to build a paper tuner can depend on what you build it with. Tommy believe as long as you can find a way to suspend the paper in a way that the paper has tension on it you should be fine. Note** However you decide to make the paper tuner station, you’ll want to have a very sturdy base to keep the tuner as static as possible otherwise you might get false readings on the tares. A general method archers use today to build the paper tuner is with PVC piping which you can pick up at your local hardware store.
Tommy mentioned Paper Tune-IT Tuning System as a pre-built system for less the $20. You can google to find out more about it and where to purchase.
Types of paper to consider: butcher paper or wax paper/parchment paper.
Other things that paper tuning can help you identify about your bow which are things like cam lean, spine issues with arrows, nock height, cam timing especially on two cam or a binary cam system. Tommy has even identified a bent riser on a bow because of paper tuning.
Paper Tuning Tears: There are 4 main tears.
- Tail Low
- Tail Hight
- Tail Right
- Tail Left
Tommy said that instead of moving your rest around to correct the tear pattern, first start of by turning your yoke on the bow string before you start moving the rest around. Tommy explains how to preform this on the show. It seems simple enough but you will need a bow press.
When paper tuning, you’ll only need your target to be 3 to 4 feed away from your paper tuning station. You want to basically be far enough away so that your arrow has cleared your bow by the time it’s entering the paper.
Tommy believes that no matter which tuning method you choose to do, he personally believes that all these tuning methods need to be done at shoulder level. This will help remove variables in your shot and should give you a more accurate reading.
