On this show, Adam is joined by another return visitor, Emory Wanger. Emory is the host of the BY LAND podcast and runs his own website catered to all things backpacking, which can be found at www.byland.co.
On the site, you will find a full list of his podcast episodes and guests as well as some interesting articles and material focused on backpacking, hunting and a whole melting pot of other subjects related to our world.
Emory initially appeared on Episode 69 when we discussed his completion of the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT), which is roughly 2,000 miles. He finished it in six months. A pretty phenomenal feat without a doubt.
Since then, Adam and Emory and have kept in touch, and recently, Emory sent Adam an email that prompted a second appearance on the show. Like most of us, Emory is very passionate about hunting and how hunting is perceived by the non-hunting public, so this episode will feature Emory’s perspective on just that topic. We hope you enjoy!

On this show, Adam is joined by John Barklow, the Big Game Product Manager for Sitka Gear.
The main topic of this episode is late season mountain hunting and the gear, skills, and knowledge required to be both successful and safe when heading into the mountains in the depths of winter.
John has an immense amount of personal experience as it relates to these hunts—he lived in Alaska for 20+ years—but he also brings his knowledge and expertise from his past career training military personnel in mountain travel, mobility and survival to bear on this episode.
If you want to know what it takes to both survive and thrive in some of the harshest hunting conditions North America offers, this is the show for you.
On this episode, Adam will be joined by Robbie Kroger for his second appearance on the show.
Robbie is a man of many talents, and many of you may (and hopefully do) know him as the man behind Blood Origins, a unique, film-based storytelling concept. You can find Robbie’s BTK debut on Episode 66 where he discusses the vision for Blood Origins in depth.
But on this show, Adam and Robbie talk about Robbie's first real mountain hunt. A public land hunt for aoudad in the mountains of New Mexico that occurred just a few weeks ago.
This adventure was one hell of a learning experience for Robbie, as it was not only his first mountain hunt but also his first sheep hunt. So, on this episode Robbie shares the hard lessons learned and the full story of this hunt. You will not believe the finish to this sheep hunting tale!

On this show, we will be talking about marksmanship. As many of you know, a crew from the JOMH traveled down to Oregon to attend the Leupold Optics Academy (LOA) in preparation for the late-season goat hunt the team recently returned from.
Joining Adam on the show will be the two gentlemen that hosted and instructed the team at the LOA facility, Michael Baccellieri and John Warren from Leupold, as well as Nolan Osborne who was the main trigger puller at the LOA course. Nolan’s perspectives on the topics covered in this show will be especially interesting as he was tasked with taking the lessons learned at the LOA and applying them in the field in what turned out to be very challenging hunting and shooting conditions.
Topics covered include the key equipment considerations that inform both rifle and optics decisions, and the skills and abilities required to get the most out of your shooting system.
If you are looking to up your game in marksmanship and precision shooting, this is a must-listen podcast with some of the best instructors in the industry today.
