EP 511: Old School Sheep Hunting and Grizzly Stories with John Reilly

July 1, 2021 by Cody Rich

I feel like I say this too much but this was an epic podcast. I felt like my cheeks were tired from smiling the whole conversation. If you love old school hunting stories, you are going to love this podcast.

John Reilly is your average blue collar guy who became hooked on sheep hunting in the backcountry years ago. Just so he could be around it John started guiding sheep hunters. He had the bug a knew he had to do whatever it took to keep going every year. John is not the kind of guy who has social media or hunts to show off pictures on the interwebs. John 100% loves sheep and sheep country. In this podcast he shares some epic hunting stories and gives me some big tips on finding and killing big rams in the mountains. Like I said one of my favorite shows in a long time.

This podcast brought to you by the awesome folks at Maven Built Optics. Maven is such a cool company and a great group of people. I also love that they are a small Wyoming company making big waves. Maven is a direct to consumer optics company which means they don’t have huge mark ups. One of the most common questions you guys the listeners ask me is to compare mavens to something at an equal price point. I can’t say it enough Maven blows everything in a similar price point out of the water. Stop comparing products based on price. This is why I say Maven is the best bang for your buck by far and away, it’s not even close. Good glass is a must have. From their rifle scopes to binoculars, and spotters I highly recommend their optics. They also have a custom optics builder which is really cool. You can jump on their website MavenBuilt.com and design your optics with custom patterns or custom colors the options are pretty endless.
