  • 10 minutes of ads before the show even starts?

    Ten minutes of ads and sponsors before getting to the content is pretty ridiculous. The content was decent when he finally got to it. There are better podcasts for learning from, though.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 566: Next Level Success With Peter Herzog
Q: So when you approach people for permission, you probably look up their name and number, give them a call, introduce yourself. Say you're a hunter. Do you start with trying to get access and then work towards, hey, I'll pay a fee to be able to walk through? Is that how you go about it?
Herzog says he starts by asking for free access, then negotiates payment if necessary. He recommends making calls, accepting refusals graciously and offering options such as a fee for access or a kill fee.
Episode 566: Next Level Success With Peter Herzog
Q: So for you, what's been the trick? Has it been just experience and failing over and over and learning from it? Has it been, do you have some steps you take, a calmness to you when you're making a stock? Or what would you attribute like your success to?
Herzog credits luck and many repetitions from hunting throughout his life. He describes controlling his heart rate, following a process, staying mentally prepared and entering a focused state through experience.
Episode 554: High Level Performance With Tyler Geiger
Q: If you could pick one thing that separates you from all the other thousands of people that bow hunt, what is it?
It's the mental edge—the day-in, day-out commitment to getting a little better and maintaining a relentless work ethic; over a long career, that mindset compounds to give you the advantage.
Episode 551: Building Knowledge With Brayden Ware
Q: What have you learned about filming hunts and balancing content creation with actually hunting?
Filming adds significant difficulty and requires committing to the film as much as the kill; you have to decide beforehand how much you'll film and be ready to manage camera work without sacrificing the hunt. It's a deliberate trade-off but produces valuable storytelling when done right.
Episode 551: Building Knowledge With Brayden Ware
Q: You mentioned shed hunting as part of your training and your year-round routine; how does shedding help you prepare for hunting seasons besides just finding antlers?
Shed hunting gets you in peak mountain condition, teaches you animal behavior, and serves as ongoing scouting. It helps with location memory, pressure response, and understanding bedding and feeding patterns, which translates into better hunt planning and better shots when the season arrives.
