I'm honored to catch up with an old friend Marc Carlton! He's a firefighter and runs a calling company NativeByCarlton that he father started over 35 years ago! Marc's dad Wayne is a legend that mastered calling elk with a turkey diaphragm and piece of vacuum hose. With deep passion and lots of hard work, Carlton Calls became a household name in elk hunting and Wayne with his “signature cowboy hat” became the leading pioneer, paving the way manufacturing and instructing fellow hunters how to talk to elk with his calls.

My buddy Jason Denham has a little meat locker solution / invention that's coming to market and I thought it would be a good idea to expose it to our audience. I have built a meat locker in the past and it wasn't cheap, so this new idea is intriguing when it comes to saving space and time! I want to encourage any of you listening to consider butchering your own wild game meat going forward! Thanks for listening!

I asked Cameron Hanes to be a guest on my podcast, perhaps talk about elk hunting and his new book Endure - he agreed with one stipulation - I had to do all of his normal training first... you know run 20+ miles, full lift sesh and shoot bows. He does this literally everyday of his life, how hard could it be? Well, he's on the podcast so obviously we both held up our ends of the deal. Cam has been a friend of mine since 2006. He's loved and hated - but ultimately he's UNDENIABLE!

Caje Golden and his good friend Billy won the Alaska bear trip with the elk shape team and Hunting Fool. We are going to motivate you all to go hunt black bears in Alaska. This trip is all about great views with some great people. Jerrod Lile CEO of Hunting Fool has been on this hunt multiple times and showed us the ropes. He was also responsible for the internment as you will hear. Caje is a die hard bow hunter with lots of reps in the field. He has done this from being a hunting guide in Montana. The hole team lived on a boat for five days. Fish in the morning and hunt the later part of the day. With twenty hours of light you cane get a lot done. Some good shots were made and some not so good ones as well. Mentally once you know you have made a bad shot it is up to you to hold on to it or BODY SLAM it off.

I was invited to hunt South Texas with the Pnuma Outdoors Recon Team late October 2021. The initial invitation was for axis deer, hogs and possibly some whitetail does. I didn't flinch at the opportunity, especially since the hunt was at the end of October when I historically don't have much going on for hunts. This turned out to be one of the greatest hunts I've ever been on and I ended up shooting my biggest whitetail buck to date. Check out the lineup for the 2022 ElkShape Camp Season!

Today we are recording with: Marcus Strange - Montana Wildlife Federation John Sullivan - Montana BHA Chair / Volunteer Andrew Posewitz - Hardcore Montana Elk Hunter We are discussing Montana elk tag allocation. Proposed changes that will take tags away from the general tag hunter and how to navigate the possibility of Montana elk hunting going towards a similar model that New Mexico has in place! Here are links to Montana FWP Commissioners and Commission Meetings: https://fwp.mt.gov/aboutfwp/commission Here is the agenda for upcoming FWP Commission meeting.

Cody McCarthy is a stud - everything he does is with intense passion! I started training Cody when he was maybe 12 or 13 years old, right after he had just killed his first bull with a bow. In fact, his first bull he ever called in was at age 8. This guy is amazing, humble and now the RMEF World Elk Calling Champion!

WHY should you advertise your goals? Well, once you speak it out loud, you've initiated accountability. I keep a small circle and making sure they know what I am setting out to do holds me accountability and opens up further discussion on what steps to take daily that will lead to the big goal.
Consistent small steps will build the necessary momentum to smash goals. So, have you identified your goals when it comes to faith, family, fitness, finances and hunting? Good, go share them after you jot them down in writing. Is your circle of friends too big, narrow that down too because we only have time and energy and choosing who you spend your precious commodities with is key.
What are you going to STOP doing as it pertains to your goal(s)? What are you going to START doing? What is something you're currently doing but needs to be MODIFIED?

Elk hunting in Washington State is very difficult. You have to choose which side of the state you want to hunt (East or West). Then you have to choose your exclusive weapon (Archery, Muzzleloader, or Rifle). Seasons are very short compared to other states out west. Draw odds are bleak for residents and nonresidents have to buy an elk tag/license just to be able to apply. There's a lot of room for improvement when it comes to managing the elk herds of Washington State. Today, we dissect their management systems and offer up a few solutions to the problem.

E Scouting is basically a relatively new approach to understanding your potential elk areas via a desktop computer. Rather than waiting for the snow to melt in your elk areas so you can get boots on the ground, why not utilize a computer and explore new elk areas. Unfortunately, there's often a bit of confusion when the subject comes up, so, today we bring on subject matter expert Mark Livesay of Treeline Academy to break down some of the best practices when it comes to creating a digital strategic hunt plan for the fall. We cover tools of the trade like Google Earth and Basemap, as well as what to look for while studying a variety of maps and terrain.

Bridger Miller is a husband, father, and teacher/head swimming and diving coach at Kelly Walsh High School in Casper, WY. He's a former collegiate swimmer, current endurance athlete and avid shed hunter. He also hunts as hard an anyone we've come across, but Bridger is obsessed with performance. He says, "Performance is super important to all of us, whether it’s hunting or daily routine as a father, husband and professional. I enjoy trying to make the most of every opportunity. Limited time presents a unique challenge when hunting. Still have a lot to learn and I find enjoyment each season reflecting and trying to find ways to become a better hunter and outdoorsman. Most of these lessons come from failure... brutal but needed!"
So let's dive in with Bridger and work on elevating our mindset for 2020!

Today we chat with Will Hoffman out of Idaho Falls, Idaho. He's in his late 20's and spends all his free time shed hunting and scouting for the fall. Will was lucky enough to draw a November rifle tag in Idaho this past year. He put all his energy into learning the huge area and narrowing down where to find a big bull. We go over how he and his buddy tackled the task of finding a needle in a haystack. Will lives a disciplined and passionate outdoor lifestyle and is a regular guy like many of our guests. This podcast is dedicated to ordinary elk hunters with extraordinary drive to be successful.

There are roughly 80,000 elk hunters in Idaho - I'm asking you all to make this episode a priority. Around 600 wolves have been harvested in the last two years in Idaho and that's largely due to trapping. That may sound like a lot, but if you peel back some layers you'll see that 600 isn't enough to keep wolf numbers from growing. We're already ten times over objective in Idaho. We need more Sportsmen to put their precious hard earned dollars into trapping, which is a very expensive and time consuming proposition. If you're like me, having a young family prevents me from running a trap line and checking sets every 72 hours which is required by law. I don't own a snowmobile and I cannot break away to dedicate the necessary time to do trapping justice. Luckily, there's still a few trappers out there that are willing and able to put the hard work in...and we can join forces and help them recoup some of their overhead when it comes to trapping.
Foundation for Wildlife Management is an organization that helps reimburse hunters and trappers for their expenses when it comes to a wolf hunting or trapping. Anywhere from $500-1,000 depending on the take method. This is not a bounty, this is purely a partial reimbursement. If you're a member, you qualify for a reimbursement and your dollars help reimburse those that are getting it done.
Just Webb is our guest today, and he's here to set the record straight on what F4WM does, why we need to manage wolves and how to take action. Wasting time pounding a keyboard on social media is not a favorable action. You will not change anyone's mind, so why not put your money where your mouth is and learn how this foundation is making it possible for our future generations to have wildlife resources.

We record with one of the most dedicated public land mountain whitetail hunters I have ever heard of. His name is Troy Pottenger and he resides in the Inland Northwest where he's arguably the most consistent archery hunter of big whitetails. Troy has been at this game for decades and spends so much time figuring out smart and mature public land bucks that live a recluse lifestyle.
We dive deep into his year round tactics to not only find a buck to go after, but how he meticulously sets the stage to be in position anytime during the fall archery season. Troy is the real deal and the knowledge bombs on this cast will make you rethink some of your best practices when it comes to whitetail behavior.

This episode is designed to create action for the listener. On the drive home from the Western Hunting Summit I record my thoughts on the event, where I saw weaknesses in some of the attendees and I challenge the listeners to identify their areas of opportunity when it comes to creating the best version of themselves. At the summit in Bozeman, MT we had subject matter experts lecture on certain topics to help newer western hunters evolve their game faster. Some of the areas or topics covered were:
Brian Barney - Backcountry Hunting
Ryan Lampers - Backcountry Nutrition
Hillary Lampers - Longevity
Mark Livesay - Digital E Scouting
MTN Tough Fitness - Mental Toughness
Randy Newberg - Public Lands
Dan Staton - Leveraging Hunting
This whole experience was so much fun and there's a lot of information covered, so I dive into how I got the campers to hone in on making progress everyday. In the cast, I go over my story on fitness and hunting and how they collided to bring about ElkShape. As a bonus, I injected about 30 minutes of Mark Livesay's lecture on creating your hunt plan properly. Some really insightful information and we hope to get Mark on this podcast soon to dive deeper into the topic which undoubtedly gets overlooked.

Today we record while driving the Instagram Bear Hunt Winner Bryce Peters to the airport as we finished up the spring bear hunt in Idaho. Bryce was a complete stranger prior to winning this hunt, and we met at camp and hunted for bears together all week. Getting to know Bryce was a true pleasure, we also had Mark Boardman & Erik Barber of Vortex Optics in camp as well. It was a very challenging week of bear hunting in Idaho as the bear rut hadn't kicked in yet, weather was hot and dry, and we struggled from the word go. Other interesting topics covered in the cast is Bryce's backcountry learning curve, how he's evolved as a solo hunter and some of his adventures from the Frank Church wilderness in Idaho. We also get into his background in finance and go over some of his investment strategies and retirement angles that he's learned while being in the industry. We both are striving for financial independence so it's pretty exciting to learn how he's managed debt and kept himself whole after college.

Today's episode is dynamite...Joel Turner of SHOT-IQ sits downs and flips the script on calling herd bulls into bow range. Joel is not stranger to the blue collar elk hunting lifestyle. By day he works in law enforcement, specifically SWAT team... and come fall, he's in the elk mountains. Joel had a rough 13 year elk hunting learning curve and explains how he smashed it. Joel is a world class elk caller and archery coach. I'm honored to have him on the cast today and lean on his knowledge and experience.

Tony Mudd is almost 60 years old, he probably doesn't look a day over forty though. He's a physical specimen and legendary archer. He's one animal away from completing the North America Super Slam with archery equipment. He's also one hell of an elk hunter and knows a thing or two about staying in shape year round. We are super lucky to sit down with this guy and pick his brain on how he has been consistently successful with his bow in several different mountain ranges throughout North America.
We also announce the winner's of the onXhunt giveaway, 5 folks were selected to receive one year memberships to onXhunt. Check it out!

Today we sit down to record with Brian Lynn of Sportsmen’s Alliance. We as sportsmen face a massive challenge of removing the societal disconnect from nature. The animal rights movement that aims to end all hunting is growing and so is their budget. Their unity, reach, and resources enables them to buy lobbyists and influencers which is why we are seeing more ballot initiatives, legal challenges and appeals, when it comes to dismantling our hunting privilege.
We discuss as hunters, how we can serve our own best interest, where we can effectively put our money and time to see the most success in the courtroom. Sportsman’s Alliance has been around for decades and their sleeves are rolled up doing their damnedest for our cause. We hunters need to stop shooting ourselves in the foot by tearing each other down. We continue to make ourselves look bad on social and mainstream media which ultimately leads to division at the ballot box and over legislation. Now, more than ever we need to help the Sportsmen’s Alliance and their team of lawyers fight the good fight in the name of conservation and hunting opportunities for generations to come.

Ted Ramirez Jr. is on the show today to inspire us about the highly romanticized DIY Alaskan Moose hunt. Admittedly, it's always been on my radar, but I haven't committed to it yet. The main reason is I would not want to miss out on elk hunting here in the lower 48. Ted also breaks down his personal fitness journey, and what it is like working in the Hunting Industry. Ted's Dad started Caribou Gear over a decade ago - makers of the ultra light synthetic game bags. If you are serious about hunting, you owe it to yourself to not use cheese cloth. I used to because I simply didn't know what I didn't know. As a hunter, my concern is a higher meat yield and better tasting game meat.

My dad and I have been doing public land spring bear hunting in Idaho since 2007. We've learned so much together and had some incredible adventures along the way. Today, we tackle some listener questions on spring bear hunting, topics like where to find bears, how to glass for bears, baiting techniques, and the best times to hit the mountain.

We talk about the old days when we started a gym together called CrossFit Spokane Valley (I still own and operate) and how we started Train To Hunt (he still owns and operates). We talk about business, fitness, training, elk hunting and our families. Kenton and I have always been able to pick up where we left off, and he's one of the most down to earth people I know.
This was a fun podcast to record, we go in great depth on what Train To Hunt Challenges are all about and how he's going to help out with next ElkShape Camp.

Welcome to the ElkShape Podcast where we discuss how to make yourself better with your time. Preparing for elk hunting year round is our approach, and we acknowledge that discipline is the common denominator when it comes to being successful. We talk elk tactics, nutrition, fitness and even finances.
Today we are answering YOUR questions on money with financial coach Jeff Bynum. Jeff was on EP 57 if you want to go back and check out some of his insights, but today we discuss ways to save for hunting, balancing your budget, and preparing for the future. You guys sent us some awesome questions to tackle, so hopefully you get inspired to buckle down on your spending and get on the same page financially with your other half. Enjoy.

Here's what you need to know on this episode, Josh Boyd resides in Northwest Montana and is in his mid-forties. He is probably one of the most highly regarded DIY backcountry bowhunters that I know. He's written hundreds of articles for publications and websites on numerous topics that pertain to hunting out West. Josh is a super humble dude, but it was very special to talk one-on-one in person and record this episode. We were at a crowded coffee shop at the time of this recording, but the information we cover is incredible for both rookie and veteran elk hunters.
Josh works as a biologist and has logged more than a lifetime of experience in the woods. He's a woodsman, student, father, and teacher. Your ears need to perk up on this episode, we cover some next level elk hunting tactics.

What started as an idea, quickly escalated to a reality this weekend. 20 humble, hungry and positive elk hunters made their way to Spokane Valley, WA for 3 days for the inaugural ElkShape Camp. I was joined by some of the most amazing humans as subject matter experts to help this camp knock the socks off of the attendees. Thank you doesn't quite cut the mustard.
This camp was supposed to impact and elevate everyone's game, but ultimately it made me understand the importance of encouragement, humility, and positivity. So thank you all for making me a better version of myself. We leverage elk hunting to make ourselves more disciplined on family, faith, finances, fitness and elk hunting. We talked about using your elk hunting filter to elevate every aspect in your life. We are lucky to call ourselves elk hunters, and it is easily the best excuse to wake up earlier, eat better, lead stronger, clean up our diet, love and serve more, and stay focused on our priorities throughout the year. I'm joined by 3 absolute elk hunting studs as we recorded at my house after day 1 of the ElkShape Camp. Were joined by Dirk Durham @TheBugler Ryan Lampers @SthealthyHunter and Willi Schmidt @purehunting_offical ElkShape Camp Registration LINK

Jason Campbel @jason.campbell.bowhunt sent me a dozen or so questions on how to prepare for his inaugural elk hunt out West with 3 buddies. I thought it would be a cool idea to go over his preliminary questions live on this podcast and coach him through the process of narrowing down a state, narrowing down an area, and all the unseen logistics that he'll need to be aware of. Jason is a stellar dude with tons of humility and hunger to go West and experience some fantastic public land elk hunting. If you're like Jason and are dreaming of doing this one day, why not now? I hope to help you crush the learning curve when it comes to elk hunting and use elk hunting as an excuse to have more discipline in your life and become the best version of yourself!

After many years of saving up for a Mountain Lion Hunt and hustling several outfitters to work out some sort of arrangement, I got the call I've been waiting for. As a resident of Washington State you cannot use dogs to hunt Mountain Lions like you once were able to. Lion numbers are growing and management is extremely difficult without the use of dogs. I have been hoping to find an outfitter in Idaho that could help me achieve my bucket list hunt of hunting cats with dogs, and I finally got the best hound guy to return my phone call and take me out for lion hunting. Mike from Longtail Outfitters is a 25 year old houndsman who runs a legit operation out of northern Idaho.
We linked up today to talk about our hunt, his operation and the biology and behavior of mountain lions. We also get into hunting spring bear and public land DIY bear hunts in northern Idaho. We also cover elk hunting tactics and some mistakes folks make when coming out West to hunt elk with archery equipment. This is a fun episode, thanks for listening!

Adam Grenda is living his dream! He's a pilot for the US Government in Alaska, and lives in King Salmon. He moved there from Idaho a few years back with his wife. Since then he's made a life for himself, including purchasing his own plane and going on some epic Alaskan adventures. His wife and friends have hunted for wolves, caribou, moose, sheep and bears.
Adam and I met in Arizona a few years back on a late season archery elk hunt where he harvested his first branched antlered bull with a bow defying the odds. He's a total stud and shares some of his best stories from Alaska. We cover how to DIY hunt up there and go over his late season elk hunt in Arizona for those that might want to try that someday!

Today we're talking hunting and financial fitness. We sit down and record with Jeff Bynum on best financial practices for hunters who want to hunt without being broke. We go over the pitfalls of being house poor, credit cards, school loans, retirement planning and discipline. This topic is extremely important and cannot be overlooked. Money is just a tool, so you have to treat it just like your health and doing things that require daily discipline to achieve your longterm goals.
Here's some background info on Jeff:
In the fall of 2008 I was introduced to an uncommon approach to financial decision making and entered the financial services industry. Teaching through holistic philosophy, I educate my clients on how to avoid many of the failures often experienced in conventional wealth-accumulation models. Over the years, I've been fortunate to build many relationships throughout the United States with professionals, small business owners and medical practitioners. I've enjoyed standing by their side while they grow towards a better financial future.
Today, my practice Financial Outfitters Group is focused on serving those dedicated to America’s tradition of hunting and fishing. Whether you're a business owner, professional in the hunting and fishing world, or just an avid outdoors-man like myself, I'm here to guide you through the financial wilderness to a path of proven success.
In 2015, my family moved to the great state of Texas. It's been an adjustment having grown up as a public lands hunter but I'm thoroughly enjoying all the amazing hunting and fishing Texas has to offer. I've been blessed with many opportunities to hunt and fish with friends and clients all across the US. Every year come September, you'll find me chasing elk with my bow in the backcountry of the Rockies!
I have an amazingly supportive wife, son and daughter who all share in the love of the outdoors.
As the founder of Financial Outfitters Group, I’m also a financial representative for Guardian and Registered Representative and Financial Advisor of Park Avenue Securities LLC (PAS).

Brian Rhead is sort of a legend in my mind. He's a blue collar lineman by day, he hustles on the side as a taxidermist, and he's hunted around the world. He guides in Alaska and Mexico, and he's the only guy I know that is not a millionaire that has the wild sheep Grand Slam. He did it in 3 years on a blue collar budget. He traded his time for guiding, taxidermy, and had some luck, but in 3 years time he did the unthinkable and harvested all 4 wild sheep - Rocky, Stone, Dall and Desert.
We brought him on to talk about his elk hunting prowess, how he's harvested 30 bulls with a bow, how he competed professionally at archery, and how he manages hunting around the world while having a wife and three kids with a blue collar salary. Brian is pure gold, he's extremely humble, and a stone cold killer. I hope you enjoy listening to some of his crazy stories on this episode.

Today we bring on Jason Phelps, owner of Phelps Games Calls and dive deep into his journey of trying to kill the fat kid. He's the kind of guy that has the discipline to implement Keto/Carnivore principles into his way of life. We talk about his struggle to lose weight conventional ways, how he researched keto and gave it go. We also talk how he followed the plan through elk season and where he faced adversity.
Jason is a normal blue collar kind of guy who manufactures game calls as a side hustle. He loves elk hunting and trains in the name of better elk hunting. We also get a chance to talk about application season and his current project Angry Mountain Productions - a day-by-day YouTube elk hunting series.

Episdoe 53 is all about testing yourself and seeking out new challenges. We bring on the perfect guest once again, a guy who is truly blue collar, family man, and gets after it when it comes to public land elk hunting. Ryan is not a famous hunter, but he's a guy that has a strong work ethic and chases bugles each fall as hunting elk is his number one passion.
We talk about his training, home gym set-up, how he is going after his first ultra-marathon, and how he balances hunting and family. Ryan has put some great bulls on the ground, but recently he switched to a recurve so we cover that uphill battle and his 10 year elk hunting learning curve.

Great episode today with Ber Yang of Pure Trophies. This guy and his team have put down a grip of bulls over the last 20 years, many of them over 300" and all on public land. It's hard to describe their level of consistent success, so I will direct you to their website and their YouTube to see for yourself the caliber of bulls these guys consistently connect on. I have hunted similar country where they find success and most people will not kill a bull there, let alone pass on any opportunity when presented with a hard earned shot. The brush bulls of Western Montana and parts of Idaho can make for frustrating hunting. The brush itself can prevent you from getting a clear shot, even when a bull is a mere 5 yards away. Binoculars are worthless in this country, any many folks will quickly grow tired of fighting the dense underbrush and steep terrain that these elk call home. The elk numbers are low and the country is in the heart of wolf country plus other predators. Ber and his four brothers have been pounding brush and slamming monster bulls for many years and they love the challenge.
The team of brothers have captured a lot of their hunts on and put them on YouTube, I highly recommend you take some time and watch how they get it done. These guys are all animals and part forest ninjas, so we talk to Ber and learn his unique story on how he came to the States and found his passion elk hunting. This was a great conversation and I hope you enjoy!

For our 50th episode we brought on a living legend! I'm honored to have none other than Larry D. Jones on today's show. Larry is a member of the bowhunting hall of fame, a pioneer when it comes to elk calling and hunting. He's probably forgot more than I will ever know about hunting elk, so you're in for a great episode.
I met Larry in 2008, we hunted two seasons in a row and he taught me a lot. We get a chance to go over how he got started into the elk call business, the early days of elk hunting and how he still manages to conquer mountains late into his seventies. Larry is a special guy, hope you enjoy.

"4 long years of being obsessed with these incredible animals and I finally connected with my first which happened to be this beautiful herd bull. I found this bull on the 11th and it took till Friday the 14th and 3 different setups solo to get him visible and within range. The moment after I shot was surreal. All the different thoughts left me speechless as I worked through what my next move would be. I decided to go get help. By the time I was heading back to trail this bull I had 7 guys coming with, all excited to share this moment with me. All helped me track this bull and eventually find him dead 200 yards from where I shot. The help I received from these guys was overwhelming as we stayed up all night getting this bull taken care of and packed out. My appreciation for everyone involved is greater than I can express. It was a long 8 days in the wilderness that tested me physically and mentally but eventually provided a gratification is greater than anything I’ve felt before. I look forward to putting the work in every year to make this happen in the future. Good luck to all those still grinding to make it happen!"
-Jacob Villasenor
Today's episode is with the guy who filmed me in Nevada for elk. The guy who beat the Elk Hunting learning curve in 4 years. A guy who I love and adore for his passion outdoors. This is Jacob Villasenor, a public land DIY elk hunter like you. I hope you enjoy getting to know his story.

Thanks for checking out this podcast designed to get you out of the elk hunting learning curve and help you be more consistent year after year on public land. That's right, this is for the blue collar crowd that hunts on their own with over-the-counter elk tags.
Today I talk about my idea of a ELKSHAPE CAMP 2019. After listening, if you have ideas send them to me on Instagram or my email address that I give during the episode.
We bring on my good buddy and shed hunting fool Jason Barkemeyer from New Mexico to break down his elk hunting learning curve experience. Jason has put down a couple of bulls over the 350 mark on public land and he's one of the fittest dudes I know. We talk about the ups and downs of getting into archery, hunting with your spouse, and some of his fitness insight.

This throwback episode is one that didn't get published and I thought it would be a great idea to blast it here on the ELKSHAPE Podcast. I sit down and record with Mark Huelsing of Exo Mountain Gear. We basically cover the ElkShape lifestyle and how to best prioritize your family when you're passionate about elk hunting. We hunters need our time away from civilization and we need a strong family presence. This hunting dichotomy is one that we all juggle and is worth putting some thought and intention behind.

Your succuss will not determine my success.
This episode has it all, we sit down with a great friend, MR. Levi Day. Levi's blue collar roots have molded him into quite the elk hunter, but even a better man. Levi lives in Oregon, but has spent many years living and breathing in Idaho and has had lots of success on public land elk with minimal time. Levi is an educator by day, so his fall hunts are mainly spent on the weekends yet he finds a way to be successful year after year. Levi breaks down his fitness journey, his lifestyle of delayed gratification, and we even talk about some of his biggest lessons in the elk woods. We finish up the show by discussing how many big name hunters have gone to elk hunting private ranches and we break down how to define your own success. We talk about how to be proud of your animal and how to stay respectful to the way other people decide to hunt. We paint a perspective that should keep a positive light on public land general tag elk hunting.
We end the show on finances for elk hunting and how Levi's approach keeps him out of debt and saving up for years to come.

Patrick J. Walsh did not grow up in a hunting family, he has zero hunters in his circle of friends or colleagues. By day, he's an attorney and part owner of a local gym. I've been aquainted with him for several years, running into him at CrossFit competitions and answering a few random texts from him periodically about hunting. Well, this year he decided to try bowhunting elk after a couple of years of learning how to shoot a bow and messing with local whitetail deer hunting.
My mind was and still is kind of blown that a guy in his later thirties was attracted to the idea of taking time away from his beautiful wife and stressful job, and go cut his teeth on public land over-the-counter elk hunting in Idaho. I sit down with him and engage in a conversation on how he got interested in the idea of doing his own killing with a bow on public land. Let's be honest here, a guy like him could probably afford a sweet guided elk hunt on some amazing privage ranch ground, yet he chose to do it the hard way and I dig in to find out why. This is one of my favorite recorded conversations, you're going to learn something on this episode!

How many East coast or Midwest hunters have still not made it out West to elk hunt? The answer is probably most. It can be extremely intimidating to plan an elk hunt from a logistical angle, let alone find somewhere good to elk hunt without really having the resources to put up trail cameras or scout ahead of time. I want everyone to make it happen and commit to the idea of coming out West. Regardless if you fly or drive the 2,000 miles one way, you'll never regret it! We sit down with a guy who is a hard working and dedicated family man. Brian Seals was a guy I met when we started Train To Hunt in our early days. I have kept in touch and brought him on today to learn how he's done 9 years worth of DIY elk hunting trips out West from the East coast. Brian is such a solid dude and is a research junkie. I hope you get some great knowledge and inspired to make your elk hunting dreams come true.

Today I am recording with fellow Washingtonian Spencer Trippe of Off Grid Food Co. We chat elk hunting for Roosevel on the Westside of Washington, how he got into elk hunting and then transition to his backcountry food company. I go over his meal options and their macrontrient breakdowns. We look deeper into his ingredients and how they might bolster performance. ElkShape is obsessed with better performance and better hunting. We've brought on other food companies before and we go into these interviews with an open mind and try to understand how these foods can benefit us when we're at a caloric deficit in the mountains while pursing elk. Enjoy.

Today's recording is with Tim Connor who lives in Washington State and has one year of elk hunting under his belt. I interviewed him simply to explore what research protocols he followed to put his greenhorn group right into elk opportunities. This is a great listen on escouting, researching, and setting up yourself for success. The elk hunting learning curve is a steep one and Tim's group was able to avoid the pitfalls of 90% failure rate which most noobs experience. I think this is a very important episode for elk hunters who are brand new or haven not experienced consistent success.

It's not everyday you get to be on someone's fitness based podcast and talk about WHY you hunt to an audience that probably doesn't know much about it. I took the opportunity to sit down with Pete McCall and talk about all the aspects of hunting including why it is extremely important to conservation. I did my best to articulate the need for hunting and why I feel called to head to the mountains each fall and pursue the purest form of protein that I know of. We talk my fitness background, how I got into hunting and what goes into an elk hunt. I appreciated Pete's curiousity and open mindedness towards the idea of securing your own meat from Mother nature's pantry. He is a great guy and after we talked he told me he was very interested in getting into hunting himself for the meat. Take a listen and let me know what you think!

So long Mountain House! Wait, what? Yes, I want all of you to consider just what is in a Mountain House or other freeze dried meals. Usually a ridiculous amount of sodium and preservatives that allow them to not have an expiration date. A lot of the dinners, which is primiarly what I use them for contain upwards of 200 grams of carbohydrates if you eat the whole bag. By the way, who doesn't eat the entire bag? The protein sources amongst other ingredients are not ideal. If we truly are preparing to hunt our best, feel our best, then we might want to consider what put in our bodies during the highly anticipated elk hunt.
So I sat down with Heather Kelly of Heather's Choice to pick her brain on their products. They do not sponsor me and I do not have a hidden agenda, but I hope you can listen and think about what you can do to be more intentional on your nutrition while in the field. I want you to recover faster and humps hills harder after elk and I believe improved nutrition can't hurt. We also talk best business practices, Heather's collegiate rowing days and few other fun topics like hunting Alaska. Thanks for listening!

Ryan Lampers of HUNTHARVESTHEALTH joins me today and we basically just catch up. Ryan and I met in the Idaho backcountry on an elk hunt. We ran into each other literally in the elk woods, where I shot a bull that he was calling back and forth with, I slipped in and arrowed this bull not knowing that he was the hunter calling from the ridgeline. We became friends, and then we shared a hunt together in Nevada. Ryan is also from WA and the best hunter I know.
Ryan consistently kills extraordinary animals in ordinary hunting units. He's extremely humble and hard working. He's the perfect guy to sit down with and talk shop on DIY hunting. Check out his podcast as well:

A lot of times there isn't a playbook to follow when it comes to making your ideas come to life. Steve is no stranger to late nights and working hard to get where he wants to go. Steve Speck is a young guy but has a great mindset when it comes to business and making products better.
We dive into Steve's background and how he got his start in the hunting industry. Steve has quite the start going from opening his own archery shop out of his garage, to developing his own online archery store called S & S Archery. Then he developed his own broadhead line called Solid Broadheads which he later sold to a big company. Steve has made his own hunting videos with Pure Elevation Productions, and now created his backpack company with his buddy Lenny called Exo Mountain Gear. This guy is unreal!

Today I sit down with a buddy in the hunting industry Isaac Aleman. He works for Easton Archery in sales and has been in the hunting industry for over ten years. Isaac attempts to convince me that mule deer hunting is better than elk hunting but his argument is pretty weak. My favorite part is chatting about old school mule deer huntng DVD's and the hunting era prior to social media. We discuss what influenced us when we started out hunting with archery and relive shooting bowcast at the bird which is now known as the total archery challenge.

If you're anything like me, you pride yourself on hunting public lands without a guide. One of the absolute most critical components to researching and navigating on hunting grounds is knowing boundaries and the topography of the landscape. I switched from a GPS to just my iPhone this season and utilized the onXmaps ELITE membership. I have all 50 states on my phone and I download maps where I am headed and use my phone on airplane mode. I can track my miles covered, look at Google Earth overlay and topo maps of my hunting areas. Plus, I can put in filters like Boone and Crockett entries, recent wildfires, and wilderness areas.
Today I sit down with onXmaps Team members Zach Sandu and Matt Siedel and go over elk hunting tactics, common mistakes made, discipline and of course fitness. Enjoy.

Mark was born and raised in Washington State, Mark grew up in a family where hunting and fishing were a way of life. He cut his teeth chasing blacktail deer and Roosevelt’s Elk. Soon, whitetail deer, mule deer, rocky mountain elk, bears, turkeys, waterfowl, upland birds and varmints became staples of his outdoor pursuits as well. Professionally, Mark has found a home with Vortex Optics. Family owned and operated, Vortex prides itself on providing high-end optics and unmatched customer service to hunters and shooters.

Today's episode we sit-down with blue collar hunter Sonny Cloninger from Washington state. Sonny is in his sixties and has elk hunted the Selway Bitterroot Wilderness for over 40 years. We learn about his early days of backcountry DIY hunting and some of his wild stories from the 1970's and 1080's. Sonny hunts one of the last places on earth where you can hunt for elk in September with a rifle. His hunting area has faced adversity of the last ten years with wildfire and wolf introduction. We chat about the good old days and what its like packing in with stock in the backcountry and what it takes to be a tough backcountry hunter regardless of age.
Sonny is a breath a fresh air, not too often do you get to chat with someone who has elk hunted longer than you have been alive. We talk about the wolf problem and how conservation and hunting is at a tipping point. This is a great discussion and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

One of the rules we talked about in the episode about using your elk tag for a predator harvest...
Idaho Fish and Game Regulations 2017-2018:
"Nonresident Deer or Elk Tag for Black Bear, Mountain Lion or Gray Wolf Nonresident deer and elk tags, excluding Nonresident Junior Mentored/DAV deer or elk tags, are valid to take a black bear, mountain lion or gray wolf, if a general season is open for that species, instead of a deer or elk where and when the deer or elk tag is valid, and there is an open deer or elk season in that same unit. Hunters may buy other bear, lion or wolf tags, but after the deer or elk tag is used to harvest a deer, elk, black bear, mountain lion, or gray wolf, a second deer or elk tag may not be purchased – except by buying a leftover nonresident general season deer or elk tag when available."

This episode we have a blue collar elk hunter from Washington state who gets it done year after year in the public land backcountry. This guy puts down big herd bulls year after year and he's got a ton of great knowledge on elk hunting. Joe Rotter is a fly fishing outfitter at Red's Fly Shop specializing in fly fishing instruction, rod sales, and hosted world wide fly fishing adventures. He's a busy father of 3, husband, and simply loves being in God's country as much as possible. Growing up on the western foothills of the Cascade Mountains catapulted him into lifelong passion for elk hunting and all things wild. Getting wet, cold, beat up, and exhausted are all part of the adventure for Joe. His preparation includes lots of trail running, pull ups, as much scouting as possible, back pack cardio, and working his trail horses with his daughter Faith as much as possible. 9x9 Kelty Noah's Tarp - it's ultralight, compact.

Welcome to episode 3, this episode is a product of happenstance. Jed Conklin is a buddy of mine who hunts for elk in southern Idaho and lives in the same town as me. Jed and I got together for a late archery season elk hunt out of my cabin in Idaho, so naturally we pressed the record button and had a BS session.
Jed is probably one of the most successful professional photographers I know, and he's traveled the world snapping powerful images for numerous big name companies. He's fairly young, works his ass off and has had a lot of success in the elk woods in just 10 short seasons of elk hunting. He's hunted in numerous states out West and has been bowhunting his entire life. He's married, has a new baby and dabbles in commercial real estate. He's an outdoorsman, entrepreneur and family man. He hunts over the counter elk each fall and as long as I have known him, he always has an elk or two in the freezer.
Topics we cover: Jed's background Advice to Rookie Elk Hunters Advice to Intermediate Elk Hunters Jed's approach to fitness Jed's entrepreneur lifestyle that enables him more time to elk hunt
