The Game Trail GOHUNT- Trail Kreitzer

This week I go down the rabbit hole of sleep systems for hunting. I discuss sleeping pads, sleeping bags, and shelters and offer ideas on why picking the right gear is important for your success. I discuss the pros and cons of down and synthetic bags, what does Power Fill rating really mean, and why the fit of your sleeping bag matters. I also talk about selecting the right air mattress in regards to comfort, insulation, durability and weight. I round out the podcast comparing traditional freestanding shelters, and floorless shelters. Along the way I offer my thoughts on several brands and sleep system pieces.

Jason Wittwer is a Nevada born and raised firefighter, bowhunter, and guide who continually has success across the west on great bucks and bulls. On this weeks episode Jason joins me to talk tips and tactics for scouting, stalking mule deer, archery practice and what it takes to make the shot when it counts. He also shares some hunting stories and lessons he has learned that we can learn from and apply to our own efforts in the field this year. We wrap up talking about what it's like being a hunting guide and shares some ideas on what a client can do when going into a guided hunt to help them find success. This is a great preseason preparation episode for the bowhunters out there that are planning on getting out this fall. Bowhunts across the west will be kicking off in short order!

On this week’s episode of The Game Trail podcast, I tackle the topic of buying and setting up a new bow sight. I discuss what I like in a sight, the number of pins, pin sizes, and if you should buy a slider sight. I also talk about peep sight sizes and alignment. I work through the process of setting up a slider sight and weigh in on which option might be the best for hunting situations out west. Finally, I wrap up with a review of four of the top-selling sights on the market. Whether you are buying a new sight or working to dial in the the sight you already have for the upcoming year, this is a good episode with several tips and ideas to consider.

On this episode of The Game Trail, I sit down and spend time talking with GOHUNT’s Brady Miller. I’ve known Brady for a number of year’s but we rarely get a chance to have a long conversation. I ask him some random questions to get to know him better and a bunch of hunting related questions to discover more about how he approaches adventure hunting. Topics include, what’s more important physical or mental preparation, what food he craves on a long hunt, why did Brady stop bowhunting, and much more!
