Nock On Archery: Recent Episodes
Nock On Podcast
Nock On Archery podcast are educational archery tips from Pro Archer John Dudley, an accomplished professional, top level coach and technical expert. Get great insights to new products and industry trends.
This podcast is a must listen for the archery community. I’m speaking with James Yates who is an Engineer, Backcountry Outdoorsman, Technical Writer, Husband/Father and Accomplished Hunter. James is fascinated with archery accuracy and forgiveness and finding non bias information that will help those who need it in the archery community.
James just conducted a great arrow test in conjunction with Precision Cut Archery & Easton Archery collecting data of several aspects of arrow flight. In particular, to study how an arrow’s components (vanes, shaft diameter, shaft length, point tip type, etc.) affect ballistic properties such as aerodynamic drag and restorative lift (how an out-of-tune arrow corrects itself), and therefore, how an arrow build can be optimized for specific purposes, such as hunting different species (with different broadheads) and various target archery events.
What I appreciated about this test is that Easton has revealed their bullet proof shooting machine for the first time publicly giving the consumers to archery a deeper look at what testing methods are usually happening behind the scenes. James and the team were at the Easton Foundation Center documenting evidence of different aspects of arrow flight, cause and affects, downrange ballistics, pairing vanes & broadheads.
This podcast tees up the information that will later be released for all to see.
An inside look at the 2025 HOYT Bow Lineup with Brian Gold.
Get ready to dive deep down an archery rabbit hole!
I wanted to give you some knowledge on design that you won’t hear anywhere else. The difference is in the details and I talked one of my fellow archery nerds to tell you the “why” that you haven’t heard yet.
Brian has a lifetime of archery under his belt. Gold started out worked in archery retail for 6 years in high school and through college as department manager why chasing an engineering degree. Through this he developed a passion for archery and the industry as a whole. Since graduating college in engineering he went straight to Hoyt and worked through the ranks from the bottom to the Engineering Manager.
He’s a passionate hunter and target archer who has a very well rounded understanding of what we all demand in our gear.
He and the Hoyt team have used a lot of new testing methods to building this 2025 lineup that has the Team really excited about accuracy.
A podcast with an industry mogul Nick Mundt from Bone Collector. I first met Nick when he was hired as Bill Jordan’s camera guy over 20 years ago. We were both in Montana for monster bucks 10. Nick was so damn funny and such a great hunter and guide. It was a pleasure knowing him before having a name for himself. Over the years he has carved his name into bowhunting history with all the great content as one of the triple threat Bone Collectors. I wanted to catch up with Nick following a TAC event and talk about old times and talk about broadheads with someone who knows how to stack them up!
This podcast is with Hoyt President Zak Kurtzhals. We talk past, present and future of our friendship, competition trail and time in the industry. We recorded this hours before the announcement that I was returning home to Hoyt for my next chapter in archery. Zak has an amazing story starting at Hoyt as an accessories engineer and working up the ladder as lead engineer and then President. I felt like this would be a good listen for the nock nation to understand where we came from and why returning to friends and alliances is so important.
In this podcast I spill my guts to the Archery Community about what my plans are moving forward and what bow will be in my hand. I thought it was time to walk our faithful friends through my timeline in the industry. Where it started. Where I’ve been. Where I’m going and the why’s! I’m truly blessed to have 30 years in the industry and I wanted you all to know what has led me to the choices moving forward! Many of these topics I haven’t said publicly but it’s an important part of who I am and I wanted to be as transparent as possible with the Nock On Nation.
This podcast is with one of the happiest Nock On Nation members I saw walking the total archery challenge course. His name is Zenn Teoh. He instantly had me asking questions! He's an Asian from Australia, Living in the wild in Canada after some time in the UK who is a self taught archer & Bowhunter. This is who we are as a community and nothing makes me happier. I hope you this story inspires you to pick up your bow and follow your passion!
In this Podcast I speak with Origin USA founder Pete Roberts who has led the charge in bringing Clothing Manufacturing back to the U.S.
We announce that I will be joining their amazing team to help segway the product and personnel that have made huge strides in American denim, footwear, workwear and most recently, hunting wear. Pete gives some amazing insight on what it takes to tackle what most said was impossible to achieve. I have always loved this vision and movement that Pete has continued to plow new trails on. There’s story after story of how the Gen X American fort builders forged the fortitude to create a leading brand right here in the USA.
Tyson is an awesome young face that’s done a great job of bringing better understanding of accuracy and manufacturing to consumers in recent years through Easton’s marketing. I sat down with Tyson at the Total Archery Challenge and we dive into his archery roots but then into the 100years of Eastons loyalty to the archery market.
This podcast is with Matthew Hays. He is currently leading an awesome team of hunters at Leupold but has an awesome background. I just loved his story because he represents what happens when you stay on a path for a lifetime. He got his first deer at 6 yrs old and grew up in a house where he was taught to use a 30/30 with iron sights. Married his high school sweetheart, spent time in the Marines in Intelligence, competed in NRL and PRS matches, ran certain aspects at the historical Leupold range training. This is all while climbing up through a corporate company going from a service call tech to now leading some of the greatest hunters on their team.
In this podcast I sit down with Hunter at the Total Archery Challenge and talk about the support and importance of everyday brands that aren’t directly in the hunting space brining support and exposure to archery and bowhunting. I’ve known Hunter for a few years now and he has stepped up the support to everyone at TAC and also some amazing new experiences brought to you by the team at Jack Links.
In the podcast I learn more about rangefinders in 50 mins from Eric Overstreet than I have known all my life. I met Eric through my good from Les Welch several years back and have continued to learn from Eric each time I see him at a TAC event. This is a podcast that every archer or Bowhunter should listen to for better understanding of the mathematics and complexity of the range finders on the market today.
This is a podcast from PA filled with short stories from several of you who we see at the total archery challenge. YOU are all what make up our community and each story is so unique and so inspiring. I set up a recording station to get your stories so others can hear it!
In this podcast I sit down with two grass roots fellas. We have recently finished filming a series for hunter’s education graduates that take advantage of some access to bettering their progression as new hunter. We also talk through some important things that all of us should put into practice. Nate is a great guy and has such a positive and holistic view on the outdoors. Quinn is an inspiring digital creator with an eye to details and a passion to capture great educational content.
In this podcast I sit down with three experts behind a lens and in the editing room Caleb Copeland, Casey VanDerGraaf and Joe Chiarappa. Although these 3 fellas are experts beind the lens and in the studio I try to get them to simplify the most important things for all of us doing our own video and photos for our hunts or social media. We get into a lot of subjects including self filming, gear essentials, better content creation and better approaches to editing.
Andy Stumpf is an amazing friend, a Navy SEAL, adrenaline junky and my hunting bro. Andy and I sit down for a podcast to have some laughs and talk about an amazing experience we are doing this week!

In this podcast I sit down with an Iowa farmer who I recently visited while looking for new spots to hunt with LandTrust. After driving around with him and listening to his story I wanted to do a podcast from a landowners perspective who is offering daily hunts through Land Trust which is like the “AirBnb” for hunting/recreation land. I get asked often about “how and where“ I hunt and LandTrust has opened the door for DIY private land hunting opportunities. This is an amazing new tool that new hunters and veteran hunters can use to find new spots in new areas.
In this podcast I sit down and discuss the new T2 head that I know is about to make serious waves in the bowhunting industry. This is a wicked new mechanical that has shown me some insane results. I sit down with Nate Grace, Brian Andersen and Jeff Helm to discuss the concept to creation and where we stand after a final hunt using production heads. We dive into the what’s, the why’s and the where’s to this new broadhead that proves consistency is found in simplicity!
The Podcast is back as we kick off “TAC” season. I sit down with Sean Degrey and talk with him about this years plans for TAC, ALL NEW VENUES that are not announced yet and what you all should expect on the ranges this year.
This podcast is with Dr Peter Attia who is a physician known for his expertise in researching life extension and enhancing people's overall health. Dr Attia is a passionate archer and bow hunter who is super fascinating about his attention to details when he has a successful hunt. He talks about vitals, fatality and what it takes for a clean ethical arrow to an animal. I hope you enjoy!
This podcast is one that I personally was really hoping for. I was lucky enough to get Joel Maxfield on for his first podcast. Full disclosure, Joel is one of my personal mentors in bowhunting. He began working for MATT McPherson as a youngster with McPherson archery and then became the first employee of Mathew’s and ultimately my boss there during my time. Much of my base in archery came from watching Joel and Matt in the bow labs and experimenting with the founding teams there. Joel has a hunting resume that is far to long to write. I’ve never met someone more serious and dedicated to bowhunting and archery than Joel. He loves the industry, loves the dealers and loves professional archery. He has a Grand Slam in archery and the Super Slam in archery. He shoots a compound and traditional gear. His wife Janice is an extremely successful short draw low poundage archer also having success on most species around the globe. His experience and curiosity goes deeper than anyone I know of when it comes to real life application of arrows and animals. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
This podcast is with Troy Fowler who many people claim is behind the charge in heavy arrow/FOC & penetration debates. After my recent arrow series “truth about arrows” Troy reached out to discuss some of these topics with me. Although many in the industry have found certain subjects or comments from Troy to be abrasive, I told him I would certainly like to talk more on the topics. I also wanted to understand his background because in the end, all I want is for archers to maximize their abilities and some of the “extremes” just don’t translate to accuracy and tuning. Going into this podcast I didn’t know much about Troy’s background and wanted first hand information from him about some of the arrow opinions he has. We navigated our first long conversation together while he told me his side of curiosity and I explained my theories based on my experiences on the range and in the field. Although some of Troy’s post and comments within the archery community isn’t from the high ground I think he could choose to take, it becomes clear it’s part of what makes him who he is. Troy has made a few comments to me about the appreciation he has for some of the information I have shared and will lead him down some new paths. I like where we left off and hope I can be of help more if asked but also want to do what’s is possible to make sure the industry moves forward, TOGETHER for the betterment of all those who choose life with a bow.
This podcast is with Bill from Ironwill Outfitters. We dove deeper into the arrow topics and where his latest testing has led. I enjoyed an open minded talk about the fixed blade/mechanical broadhead debate. I also questioned the depth of the testing he has done so far and give a little insight on the topic too playing the devils advocate. We also question some important topics the archery needs to know. This is such a great talk regardless of whether you are a mechanical or fixed blade broadhead supporter OR if you want o hear more on the debate of FOC focus vs Accuracy Focus.
In this podcast, I get on a call with Wayne Endicott from the Bow Rack.
He’s a legend in the archery shop world and I find out how long ago I was in Wayne’s shop. We talk arrows, bow set up, arrow tuning, steel cables, living out of a Tacoma and slinging arrows.

Dr. James Park is one of the Worlds leading sources of scientific research on arrow flight. Dr. Park has been awarded a PhD in Mechanical Engineering by Monash University in Melbourne, Australia and has 31 published research papers to prove it. His PhD work was dedicated to arrow dynamics and a lifelong study that covered the behavior of arrows during the bow’s power stroke and in free flight. He placed particular emphasis on compound bows, but much of the work is also directly applicable to recurve bows. James Park was a mentor of mine since i was first shooting for the U.S. Team. I stayed with James, studied with him and he was able to collect data from my shooting methods that actually predated where we were at in understanding it. James witnessed me break multiple records and win multiple gold medals internationally. He used some of the collected data and information with robotics and wind tunnels to make him an impressive coach for the Australian National Team. He is one of the few sources that I would report my personal most trusted data to. He is a real life projectile wizard and has done more arrow study with a shooting machine that anyone you can find on the internet, i guarantee it. I hope you enjoy this podcast and understand that through our trusted information you will improve in archery. Don’t get trapped in the arrow wormhole. This podcast can give you more than a lifetime of understanding in a few hours.
In this “Swap Cast” episode, I sit down with Wade Grinager, the host the Archery Podcast, to discuss some in-depth history with different bow brands, set up, tuning, and what he learned through an experience here at Nock ON HQ. We touch on how archery shops play a key roll in making the archery experience easier and better for people when a shop has a wide selection of equipment and staff that are truly passionate about archery. Wade, who is an avid archer and bow technician, job shadowed me for a day and got a behind the scenes view on what I’m passionate about and our mission here at Nock On. Wade’s experience here led us to a talk about some different brands and ultimately how and why we choose the brands/dealers we decide to work with. We also talk about how there are certain brands that make the archery/hunting/outdoor experience better for those wanting to experience it. All dealer inquiries for nock on archery can email us at dealers@nockonarchery.com

THIS IS THE MISSING LINK! We've discovered how to make hunting easier and better for all!
In this podcast I throw on the headsets with Nic De Castro of LandTrust and John Barklow from Weathering the Storms at the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation Mountain Fest in Park City, Utah.

We also discuss hunting etiquette and the importance of all hunters doing their part in learning, teaching and embracing proper hunting etiquette and woodsmanship.
This is a power-packed hour loaded with valuable information for all hunters!
There’s a lot of my progression through my hunting career that I’ve never really explained. It was a progressive journey that started on a small family place and grew into public hunting but then was slowly built into understanding private land hunting. Although I have never gone into detail on this in the past it all surfaced during a recent passion project with HuntWise app team. This awesome discussion happened as I sat down with huge assets to bowhunting Matt Read. Matt takes me and the viewers on an in depth tour of the powerful HuntWise app and all of the incredible features it provides to hunters to make them more knowledgeable and more successful. As we navigated the app I had distant memories surface that is such a critical step for new hunters to hear. I really enjoyed this podcast because we revealed how to climb the ladder of a new hunter to where I currently am.L! Also as an added bonus to our podcast listeners, HuntWise is giving the Nock On Nation a 25% discount off the app, which can be found at get.huntwise.com/nockon

In this podcast, I sit down with Nate Huizenga who is an interesting new addition to the “grass roots” hunting community. He has such a cool story on becoming a hunter and I was curious to dig deeper. This podcast was the segue to me realizing the parallels of the Nock On Nation and the HuntWise Team. The definition of ETHOS is “the characteristic spirit of a culture, era, or community as manifested in its beliefs and aspirations”. When I first met with the HuntWise Team, it was obvious that their ethos closely matched my ethos and my passion to provide education and knowledge to help bowhunters be better. I am really pumped about this partnership and what it means for furthering our educational platform for the Nock On Nation!
On this podcast I talk with my good buddy Mike Slinkard who is an industry veteran and amazing hunter. I like to have a conversation each season with Mike prior to Spring hunting. He’s a wealth of knowledge and we talk about his recent hunt for a massive Costal Brown Bear that he shot under 20 yards and then we dive into some great information. I pick his brain about common mistakes hunters make for both Mule Deer and Elk!
Chris Worden is a 2-wheel junkie! From an early age, all he wanted to do was live life behind handlebars and in the outdoors. His love for adrenaline and extreme sports eventually landed him playing a big part in bringing the Red Bull Rampage to the masses.

I enjoyed this conversation with Worden for his expertise, creativity and serious passion for all things motorized to help launch a game changer in E- Powersports.
I have had many people behind the lens for me over the years and no one has been with me more than Caleb Copeland. He has been in the industry for a long time bringing forth videos and images that tell great stories. Caleb and I sit down and discuss the past, present and future of our content creation.

Andrew Ehard is a diehard, passionate midwestern bowhunter and member of the Nock On Nation, but there's also another side to him. I say he leads a double life since at one moment of the day he can be in the courtroom as a highly respected attorney then two hours later in the woods chasing critters and flinging arrows. He's served in the military and returned home making his way through law school all while working up through the ranks of being a better bowhunter. He's one of those guys when you meet him at a TAC event or in a hunting camp you would never guess what he does on his day to day at the office.

Issac Aleman is a longtime archery OG and is always uplifting to talk to. He’s worked for some great companies in archery including Easton, Badlands and Black Rifle Coffee. He’s an underrated western hunter with a never ending passion for growing archery and having fun on the mountain.

He’s such a fun resource of a beginners perspective but also living proof of what someone can do if they put their mind to it.
