    Hunting Mountain Goats in Utah with Jana Waller

    It was March 22, 2017 when I last interviewed Jana for episode 179 about her Alaska Moose Hunt, I can’t believe it’s been that long! Jana Waller joins me in the virtual studio from her new home in Utah – we chat about her show Skullbound Chronicles, and how she’s making the shift from traditional network tv to an all-digital platform on Carbon TV. She shares the harrowing story of her goat hunt and how she scored a coveted conservation tag, she reveals a moment of panic and overcoming her fear of heights, and she tells us why this 17 day hunt became one of her all time favorites. We then move on, and she shares her #1 tip for someone looking to break into the outdoor industry, and then we talk about social media trolls. And of course how NOT to feed the trolls. Jana then talks about a social media tip she got from her good friend Melissa Bachman about why you shouldn’t report the troll accounts. And she goes on to tell us about hunts she’s been able to take veterans on and how they’ve really touched her heart. And finally, we promised to not allow 7 years to pass before the next interview!

    Hunting Arrow Tech with Gary Cornum of Easton Archery

    237 In this Throwback episode of the HuntFishTravel Podcast, host Carrie Zylka interviews Gary Cornam, the marketing manager for Easton Archery. They discuss the different types of arrows and their benefits for bow hunting. They also talk about the new products for 2013, including the injection arrows and the Deep Six technology. Cornam explains the difference between hunting arrows and basic arrows, and the advantages of using a full metal jacket arrow. He emphasizes the importance of kinetic energy and accuracy in bow hunting. In this conversation, Carrie and Gary discuss the importance of arrows in archery and bowhunting. They cover topics such as flat shooting, arrow selection based on speed and kinetic energy, the design of Easton's new access traditional arrow, the physics of arrows including kinetic energy and momentum, and the importance of shot placement and penetration. They also touch on the concept of kinetic energy density and the minimum requirements for kinetic energy in relation to hunting different species. Gary emphasizes the importance of accuracy and finding the right arrow for each individual's needs.   Takeaways Easton Archery is a leading manufacturer of arrows for bow hunting Different types of arrows have different benefits for specific hunting situations The injection arrows and Deep Six technology offer improved performance and accuracy A full metal jacket arrow is recommended for hunting whitetails from a tree stand Maximizing kinetic energy and accuracy are key factors in successful bow hunting Flat shooting arrows are designed for speed and a flatter trajectory, which is beneficial for longer shots and 3D shooting. Arrow selection should consider a balance between speed and kinetic energy, with shot placement being the key factor for hunting success. Easton's new access traditional arrow is designed with inspiration from Doug Easton's original arrows and offers a throwback look with modern performance. Kinetic energy is important for driving the broadhead through the target, and shorter draw archers may need to focus on maximizing kinetic energy due to their lower power stroke. Kinetic energy density, which focuses energy into a smaller diameter, can lead to increased penetration and is an important factor to consider when choosing arrows. There are no specific minimum requirements for kinetic energy in relation to hunting legally, but a threshold of around 40 foot pounds is often recommended for big game hunting. Accuracy and shot placement are more important than maximizing kinetic energy, and choosing the right arrow can help increase energy without sacrificing accuracy. Easton offers a wide range of arrows for different types of archery and archers of all sizes and skill levels.   Titles Introducing the New Products for 2013 Choosing the Right Arrows for Bow Hunting Easton: A Wide Range of Arrows for Every Archer Introducing Easton's New Access Traditional Arrow   Chapters 00:00 Introduction and Sponsorship 07:10 Advantages of the Full Metal Jacket Arrow 33:25 Understanding the Physics of Arrows 40:21 Exploring Kinetic Energy Density 47:32 The Importance of Accuracy
