    Weather App Eval / Wind, Fronts, Pressure, Temps

    Predominant wind, barometric pressure, cold fronts, wind speed, sunrise & sun set. We rely heavily on our weather apps during the hunting season to help us determine when and where we want to hunt, what layers we need to wear, and what to expect when we get set up. However, are all weather apps created equal? Should we simply trust the weather app that comes with our phone or simply go to the Weather Channel app? What forecasting model do those basic weather apps use? In today's episode, Jacob shares his top 3 weather apps that he examines closely when preparing for a simple hunt in the evening, or on a long extended trip out of state.

    What is a "thermal hub"? What is a "thermal switch"? How do mature whitetail bucks travel differently in the morning vs. the afternoon? And, what implications do these phenomena have in the whitetail woods? On today's episode, Jacob is going to discuss the research that was recently revealed by Derrick Dixon of Whitetail Research and what he found as he observed mature whitetails for all of the 2024 hunting season. Additionally, Jacob will share his perspective on thermals and how he observes them holistically and on a case by case basis in the field.

  6. The Hunting Knife to Rule Them All Pt. 2

    The Hunting Knife to Rule Them All Pt. 2

    Knife making is both an art and a science. In today's episode, Jacob continues to examine the dynamics of the steel composition of high end knives and the implications of that composition. There are a lot of steels that were created in the 1940's to 1960's (A2 Tool Steel, D2 Tool Steel) that were specific for the manufacturing industry and are still used in high end hunting knives today. But what do knife steels look like as they evolved in the early 2000's and what do knife steels look like now as they evolved in the 2020's. There are often tradeoffs between toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. But is it possible to create a steel that has balance across these 3 knife steel dynamics. And, if so, what options are out there now for those looking for that balance of properties.

    The Hunting Knife To Rule Them All Pt. 1

    If you haven't noticed, there is a new product segment emerging in the hunting knife space. Maybe it's been there all along...but it seems that there are more and more companies branching out and creating high end fixed blade hunting knives. The prices range from $200 to $400. And, while they look amazing, how do we know they are a worthy investment? Aside from the aesthetics, they all sort of seem the same? In today's episode, Jacob begins the deep dive into knife steel and some of the dynamics that come into play with regards to the type of steels that are available and how their composition of carbon, chromium, vanadium and other elements will dictate their toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance.

    Broadhead & Arrow Ballistics Study Pt. 2

    In today's episode, Jacob will dive into part 2 of the study that was recently shared by James Yates with Western Hunter Magazine. James partnered with Easton, Precision Cut and Black Ovis, to answer some of the lingering questions that he had as it relates to arrow flight and the many variables that can effect that flight (mechanical broadheads, fixed blade broadheads, 3 fletched arrows, 4 fletched arrows, etc.). As we all get ready for the fall hunting season, this data could prove to be helpful in determining some of your set up decisions. In addition to this topic, Jacob shares an update on his own season prep. Thanks for listening and enjoy!
