    Ep. 17 | Time for a New Bow Sight?

    On this week’s episode of The Game Trail podcast, I tackle the topic of buying and setting up a new bow sight. I discuss what I like in a sight, the number of pins, pin sizes, and if you should buy a slider sight. I also talk about peep sight sizes and alignment. I work through the process of setting up a slider sight and weigh in on which option might be the best for hunting situations out west. Finally, I wrap up with a review of four of the top-selling sights on the market. Whether you are buying a new sight or working to dial in the the sight you already have for the upcoming year, this is a good episode with several tips and ideas to consider.

    Ep. 16 | Random questions about hunting w/Brady Miller

    On this episode of The Game Trail, I sit down and spend time talking with GOHUNT’s Brady Miller. I’ve known Brady for a number of year’s but we rarely get a chance to have a long conversation. I ask him some random questions to get to know him better and a bunch of hunting related questions to discover more about how he approaches adventure hunting. Topics include, what’s more important physical or mental preparation, what food he craves on a long hunt, why did Brady stop bowhunting, and much more!

Trail is the best!

Thanks Trail for these podcasts! Easy and enjoyable to listen to. Solid information that has helped me a ton! Would love to hear about broad-head selection. What you’ve seen since shooting sevr and why you chose that over a fixed, which many say is superior. Keep it up! Thanks again! -Jordan
