Customer Reviews
Great conversations amongst a wealth of experience
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.
Awesome
This is great!
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!
My only complaint about the podcast is that I wish they would set their guests up with better audio equipment. It can be hard to listen when the hosts are crystal clear and the guest sounds like they’re at the other end of a tunnel.
