This episode I have Colter Fosdik on the podcast. It goes without saying that the most important aspect of life to Colter is his kids and his family. He does his best to involve his kids in the outdoors and is willing to put in the extra work required to have them along.

Aiming on coued deer, and potentially anticipating their quick reflexes
His bow sight: what he prefers, ways he uses it, and what he might switch to

Solo Hntr, Editing, Family Life, Memories, and More with Tim Burnett - Episode 73

Monday Mar 11, 2019

Tim is a family man and puts them first in all aspects of life. It’s not a secret that he is also very passionate about the outdoors and spending as much time in them as possible, which to him is a normal part of his self-sufficient lifestyle.

The love and passion for the outdoors all started for Tim at the age of 12. He would simply grab a backpack, sleeping bag, fishing pole or rifle, and go give her hell. More often than not, he ventured out alone, with the solitude of the outdoors calling his name. His camera days started in college when he bought the best camera he could afford and began filming his steel head fishing trips.

The idea behind SOLO HNTR was to be different. “I want my viewers to feel the experience rather than just see it.” And boy do he and his co-hosts deliver on that. In this episode we cover:

Tim asks me a few questions about myself
Chat a little about editing
His life behind the scenes of SOLO HNTR and how he balances family, hunting, destination hunts and what is most important
His kids and hunting
A little about his sheep hunt
The most overlooked aspect of filming a hunt
The most uncomfortable situations for him when hunting, the kind that make his skin crawl
Experiences when running into other hunters
His most rewarding hunt to date and why

High Country Colorado on a New Knee with Shaun Smith - Episode 70

Monday Feb 18, 2019

Shaun Smith is on the podcast today. Shaun is known for busting his ass in the backcountry to find success. Always putting his son and wife first, he still finds time to crush it in the gym, meticulously go over his archery gear, and plan several hunts a year. Any nonresident hunter knows the true challenge of planning a hunt, let alone finding success. It’s not for the faint of heart and truly puts you to the test. Shaun has proven time and time again that his persistence, preparation, and dedication results in success. In this episode we cover:

His disastrous knee injury, what the surgeon did to fix it, and his road to recovery.
We discuss the planning process of his Colorado high country archery hunt taking into consideration that he had just came off of a major knee surgery.
We jump into the hunt, his strategy, and his biggest buck to date.
We cover some technical questions on stalking, locating, backing out of a stalk and more.
We go briefly over his setup including arrow, broadhead, weight, etc.
And of course, we saw a couple squirrels and went of on tangents. But hell, they might be tangents that are very valuable.

Iron Will Broadheads with the Man Behind the Plan Bill - Episode 69

Monday Feb 11, 2019

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
