In this Episode I have John Barklow on the podcast. Any podcast titled "Trapped Between A Fallen Horse and a Pile of Rocks" has got to be interesting right? We talk all about his 2018 season, where it started, his summer practice routine, the hunts he went on, and of course the potentially life threatening situation he found himself in when the horse fell. I hope you enjoy the show.

The bowhunting world knows Brian Barney. He is consistently hammering critters all over with his bow in hand. He is arguably one of the most passionate bowhunters I know. On top of that he bust his ass with his own business so he can have the time to be able to hunt as much as possible. This past season was a special one for Brian because his youngest daughter was able to hunt and harvest her first deer. That is a memory both of them will have forever. When it comes to bow tuning, Brian is meticulous and wants to have the most forgiving setup possible. We both agreed that the arrow building process plays a huge role in having a forgiving setup and decided to walk through the process. In this episode we cover:

• Starting point for picking out your arrow from the store
• Factors that need to be taken into consideration when selecting an arrow
• The next step after cutting the arrows
• Weighing components before putting them in the arrow
• Fletching process, helical, offset, how many fletchings
• Nock fit and style

It all started with family for Bill Vanderheyden, the Co-Founder and Lead Engineer of Iron Will Broadheads. His grandfather and father had long been telling of the adventure to be found from within the Wisconsin woodland.

Bill’s love of the outdoors paralleled his affinity for math and science, especially physics, which led him to become a mechanical engineer. He has earned a total of 50 patents throughout his career. All the while, his passion for the outdoors continued to grow, with ever more time spent hunting and exploring remote locales.

Since moving to Colorado in 1999, Bill began supplementing his whitetail hunts with backcountry elk hunts. Finally, in 2004, after many years of hard work with no payoff, it all came together and he shot a nice bull. Dreadfully, the broadhead apparently hit the back edge of the shoulder blade and penetrated only a few inches and the bull was never recovered. This incident led to wanting more out of a broadhead.

The pursuit began by analyzing the physics behind every aspect of the shot and reading scientific studies. Current broadhead offerings were researched, purchased, and thoroughly tested. Bill was looking for a broadhead that would achieve maximum penetration, pass through bone undamaged, maintain a razor sharp edge, and fly great at long distances. Every broadhead tested fell short in one or more of these areas. Frustrated with the offerings, he decided to engineer his own broadhead. Over 7 years later, numerous field tests, computer simulations, material tests, all resulted in a long-range shooting broadhead that maximizes penetration, durability, and lethality. A broadhead we all now know as Iron Will.

In this episode we cover:

• Bill’s Story
• Time line from idea, to drawing, to actual product in hand
• Broadhead accuracy
• Performance in wind
• Decision to go with bleeder blades
• What is up next for Iron Will
• And A lot more
