Welcome back to the Live Wild podcast, everyone. This week, I'm actually back from the arctic and gonna recap the hunt. We're gonna dive into some of the things that surprised me about the recent trip
The wild or wider if something's, you know, slightly unzipped, if your zipper is gonna catch the string. I mean, a lot of things can go wrong. A lot of things can go wrong, especially when you're in a situation. You've got an animal in front of you. That adrenaline starts flowing and there's in your in a situation that you haven't encountered before, shooting with a pack on shooting with whatever. One of the things that I think about a lot is, you know, I've seen a lot of different things during while guiding or whatever. And one of the things that kind of always comes to mind is, somebody that maybe is in bear country and they've got their, their bow hunting and they've got their bear spray or pistol on the same hand that they draw the bow with. Well, if you're shooting with your pack on and you've got a pistol there, your string could potentially hit, catch, or whatever on whatever's on your waist belt. So when I'm when I'm hiking around bow hunting, I've got my water on my, like, a hip belt on my right side or my pistol or whatever on my right side. And if I am rifle hunting, then I I kinda switch it over because I carry my rifle on my right shoulder, and then I swap my water bottle to the hip belt on the left side. So if you're going back and forth between the 2 and you don't think about it, that's something that could catch the bowstring and cause a shot to go wrong or, I mean, could even be dangerous of the string hitting something and doing damage to your bow. So all those little things of paying attention pre hunt hopefully help during the hunt. And then you're always gonna encounter things that you don't expect. You know, this time, I'm actually kind of excited for because I think there's a little bit of an adventure element and just the newness of doing something that I'm not used to doing. One of the things I'm, like, I'm not super excited about driving for hours and hours in an in a snow machine or behind a snow machine.

Ep. 119 | Gridding
Thu Apr 04 2024
In places where you've got likely bedding. So it could be that CSA. It could be timber, rock formations, whatever, where there's shade. Probably look like if it's a midday kind of thing. I'm probably looking kinda toward the sun in a way, so the shade's on my side. But I'm I'm picking apart that habitat looking for pieces of an animal in areas where it's hard to see or when I there's areas I know it's good habitat, but I'm having trouble picking up animals. That's a really good time to use gridding. So now let's dive into the technique of what, what I like to do when I sit down. So let's imagine we're in a scenario. We'll just pick anything could be, let's call it coos deer hunting southwest, October time frame, hard time to pick them out. They're probably bedded a lot of the day. That first morning rush is over, and they're probably sitting down, and then they're gonna be doing that thing where they, like, pop up and move for a little bit and they go from cover to cover and and then they're bedding. So I've got some good potential shade. Maybe it's that time of morning where the shadows are moving a little bit faster so they might get up and move. I'm set up on a good glassing knob. I've got in this particular instance, I'm gonna use my 18 power binoculars, and I've got them on a tripod. And the the thing is what we're gonna first do is take a look at the mountain with our eyes, and we're gonna break it into quadrants. Or say, alright. This top section there is 1 section. Like, if you took a picture with your phone and dissected the mountain, you can give each one of those quadrants a number and you go, okay. This quadrant is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. So you're making, like, a, in my mind, like, the mental picture, it'd be like a tic tac toe board across. Like, if you took a picture of what you're looking at and drew a tic tac toe board across it and broke it into 6 sections, 6 squares. Tic tac toe. Yeah. Well, 3 on each row. I guess, 9. Whatever. Or you could do it in half.

Ep. 118 | Elk Hunt prep how to conquer steep mountains Deadfall and heavy packouts
Thu Mar 28 2024
A lot of knee and ankle instability, and that's where we see a lot of hunters get into a lot of trouble is they've never prepared their bodies for getting off that mountain after they've climbed to the top or after they've chased elk to the top. So specific preparation around getting ready for that is really critical. Because I I assume you've seen the same on a on a lot of your hunts that that coming down, especially when loaded with a heavy pack, is is what's gonna catch up with people. Oh, for sure. That's the I'm glad you mentioned that because, yeah, the downhill is the part. I actually I always say, like, I'd rather go up twice than go down once. Like, I just I downhill is more difficult. You think about it. It's not so going up, it's like lungs and legs. Going down is a lot of, like, joints and the things that are yeah. That's exactly the things that that put you out of the hunt. And I think the problem, like, what I do when I go down is a controlled descent right? I go down and I'm using muscles to control it. The guys are like oh my knees hurt Like, well, I know how you're walking downhill. You're walking down with your joints. You're just pounding them into the ground. And they don't think about that like you do get fatigued walking downhill if you have not worked those muscles to control that descent. Control your like, there's actually a lot of core to in in controlling your your downhill descent because you're I'm when I'm walking down hill, I'm not going with gravity because when you go with gravity, you you hammer your knees, you hammer your ankles, you hammer your back. When you control your walk down, you're using muscles that probably aren't muscles. You're right. That aren't being used, and then they get tired. And then you do the same thing. You you hammer your joints. It's the one, like, knee problems is the biggest knee and back. I think it's like the biggest complaint of guys. And then, yeah, I mean, to, like, a big steep stuff where you're you're hitting
