Good buddy, and ok shooter, Jon Pynch is back on this week to talk about guns and share some of his recent experiences hunting stone sheep. All joking aside, Jon is more than just one hell of a shot. Jon is a very accomplished competitive distance shooter, though you would have to about torture him to get it out of him. Needless to say, I was happy to have Jon on to chat about some popular questions around gun prep and caliber selection. Through competition, Jon shoots a bulk of his shots from various obscure resting positions and we cover some tips for making a good rest in the field. We also talk off-hand shooting and the importance of practicing your off-hand shots.

Today we have another 5 Tips podcast but this time centered around rifle elk hunting. With Questions pouring in this podcast was fun to hash out with young Jaden. We kick off the podcast with my 5 Tips for success to include a nice deep rabbit hole dive into how to utilize other hunting pressure. We then break down how I plan out my rifle hunts from start to finish, and how to adjust your plan throughout a hunt. So many new hunters lack a serious plan that I think is super valuable information for many.

We then dive into the debate being able to see a lot of country vs looking in those remote nooks and crannies that tend to hold older elk. This is a tough one for me because there are times when both are a great option. We dive into how I use each and at which point in a hunt, I fall back to the other.

We Wrap this podcast up with a pile of great questions from you the listener. There are some great questions this week and I love getting feedback from the Patron’s as it helps shape the podcast and help understand the struggles everyone is going through.

Today in the podcast studio I sit down with the crew from Burch Barrel, a new startup here in Bozeman. We all recently crushed a ten-man limit of ducks on the opening day of waterfowl season which was a damn good time. We laugh about our recent duck hunt and those in the group who were not so great shots that day. We also talk about their new startup and the struggles of building a company and a brand.

As a new brand launching its first product Burch Barrel is doing a Kickstarter for their fire pit/grill combo. If you are not familiar with Kickstarter is a cool way to invest in companies and products to help ideas get off the ground. Kickstarter has become very popular in recent years and for good reason. Kickstarter allows everyday people to invest in small companies and be a part of the success.

Check it out here.
