Love the show, it’s fun to hear about the new gear and how it shakes out in the field in real world situations. I have learned a lot from this pod cast. And I think Joseph is an absolute great story teller. Follow his magazine articles also.

I wish I had HAD a teacher like Joseph in high school, I would’ve learned something.

The practical approaches to preparing for success is unmatched. This is also a clean, family friendly show. Definitely has changed my life!

I’ve followed Joseph’s career for a long time and he’s one of my favorite gun writers today. I grew up reading all of the old guard greats. VonBenedict is right there with them. I’d also suggest signing up for the Patreon if you’re a fan of the show. Awesome additional content.

Started listening to the podcast after Joseph started appearing on Ron Spomer Outdoors. This quickly became my favorite and go to podcast, because it is informative, enjoyable and straight forward. I like the interviews done with various people in the backcountry hunting industry, the inclusion...Read full review »

Great breakdown of the.308 and .30-06! I think a few notable backcountry hunters hunt with .308 and have touted it as a good backcountry cartridge. Thay do also limit themselves and show great discipline in not shooting past the cartridge’s limits.

This is by far one of the best podcasts you can listen to about hunting. I drew a bighorn sheep tag last year and I built a mountain rifle specific for the job. Using the techniques and shooting tactics I learned from listening to this I was able to harvest my team of a lifetime.

I find this podcast more helpful, informative, and practical than any other hunting podcast.

Excellent podcast!
jdarula1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/25/24
seems like the podcast is fresh out of ideas. new episodes frequently appear to be a repeat or regurgitation of episodes done in the past. Everything seems so sponsor influenced, that it chokes the quality of the podcast . It’s a shame because JVB is a absolute gentleman

Top hunting podcast. This is a great show, and I look forward to my drive to work each Friday. I love this podcast, because Joseph knows of what he speaks, and you will not waste your time, there aren’t any extended “Bro” sessions where 3-4 guys sit around for 3 hours blabbing about things they...Read full review »

The material in this podcast is well-researched, accurate, and applicable. It has helped me greatly in my journey as a hunter, and has brought many hours of entertainment.

This podcast combines the best of rifles, cartridges, gear, and gadgets along with stories of epic hunting adventures and practical outdoor logic. Give it a try…you won’t be disappointed 😉
Bossman Senior via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/01/24
This is the best hunting and backcountry podcast I’ve tried. It contains a vast amount of knowledge and information for everyone just starting out to those who have been doing it all their lives. Absolutely love it!!

I have never gave Africa hunting much thought one way or another but after hearing you and Ron bring up elephants and it really opened my eyes to more than just America thanks I still don’t have much interest in hunting there. I will definitely defend the topic with more information because of...Read full review »
Cory Weideman via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/31/24
The most informative podcast there is in regards to caliber, cartridge, bullet choice. He (Joseph) has (obviously) hunted (and killed) many different animals with a wide variety of rifles, cartridges, and bullets. I’ve both learned a lot and also reaffirmed things I already knew. He also seems...Read full review »

I got my browning chambered in 68 when it first came out in six months after that, I was able to buy Winchester 200 pieces of brass each bag had 100 and I’m pretty sure I got one from Cabelas and one from Scheels but I know I got one from Scheels for sure

What a great podcast very informative
pipeliner76 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/03/24
Joseph von Benedikt is an incredible story teller and a wise rifleman. This podcast is pure gold. Highly recommend.
Lodgepole Creep via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/02/24
Quick, informative, not too technical though. JVB is good just wish he didn’t try to use his “radio voice”. He does it all, gear review for gear-heads, storytime, and motivational or health podcast.
LRI wiggy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/01/24
Very enjoyable format with great factual information
TvlHnter via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/01/24
JVB and this podcast is an amazing source of information on hunting and do so ethically. Most of us only hope to hunt 3-4 western species yet learning how to hunt them prior to booking a hunt is amazing. Even if some of the info is just a dream for some of us. Keep up the great work with the...Read full review »

This is now one of my favorite podcasts, always a great listen… As to the Gentleman looking for a rifle in 7PRC may want to check out the new Bergara Crest B-14 Carbon model, it is a very well made. It has a 22” carbon barrel, and weighs 6.5lbs. It retails for $2100….Thanks
Jonny V's !!! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/02/24
Use to have some good podcasts but has become mostly a podcast about convincing the listener their current rifle is inadequate. Never discusses conservation. Rather it is now just focused on how to out gun your fellow hunter.
Matt of Missoula via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/19/24
This guy is legit and I learn a ton every time I listen. He is sponsored, but doesn’t seem to have sold himself to the highest bidder. The stuff he recommends is solid.
M-Lith via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/19/24
One of my favorites within the hunting space. Love the info on ballistics. As a new western hunter I like it when guys help set reasonable expectations—JVB is a pro.
mister_dmac via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/10/24
Easy to listen to. One of my favorite podcasts with Easter egg gems of info even on topics I thought I knew well.
hftvxxcgg via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/06/24
This is a great podcast that covers important information in a highly digestible format. I really enjoy it!

Joseph von Benedikt has taken an excellent approach to make Backcountry Hunting informative and entertaining. I continue to learn a lot and he keeps me excited for all the hunts I have left in me.

An addictive podcast full of interesting and important information and inspiring stories.
Nozelos via Apple Podcasts · Portugal · 11/19/23
I have read Joseph’s writings and various magazines for years. I was very excited when I found his podcast and have quickly listen to nearly all of them. As a younger hunter who lives in the Southeast and dabbles in hunting out West, his advice has been near invaluable.

Poor ethics from this family.

I am a Midwest hunter that has been getting into the western hunting and loving it. Stumbled onto this podcast while listening to John mcadams and love it. Highly recommend for stories, strategies and gear recommendations! Just a great podcast for those who love to hunt

Thanks for the timely share of hunting early season elk. Very thorough and lots of little tips in there to remind us all to stay focused and be creative in the middle of the day. Think like your quarry. Great Stuff! -Troy Vaughn
