    New to the show and have enjoyed the experience and knowledge but you guys gotta do yourselves a favor and get some decent audio equipment. Sounds like you’re recording on a cassette tape in an empty kitchen.

  • Solid Information and Team!

    MDS is one of my favorite podcasts due to the wealth of knowledge that both Caylen and Phil have. A lot of stuff they touch on has helped improve my hunts over the last few years. I love the fact that they’re completely open minded and don’t have an agenda or products to push. I’ve been in the firearm industry for over a decade and there are very few people that are as open and transparent as MDS is. I look forward to taking a class in the near future from them!

    Fantastic episode. I have enjoyed all of the episodes, but this one was a cut above. Just a wealth of information presented concisely and inviting the listener to accept or reject the information, as always.

MDS Episode #0146 | Nick Gebhardt - Process Under Pressure
Q: So let's talk about the worlds, man. So when you guys left from Oregon, you made, I mean, that trip from you guys to town, even from Montana to Oregon, that's a haul.
We did a long drive with an extra day to rest and calibrate before the match; Jesse was testing a new rifle and gear, and the plan was to approach the Worlds with a focus on data and personal wind/mirage interpretation rather than relying on a squad.
