KIFARUCAST

This is a bonus episode produced and shared by Brian Barney at Eastmans' Elevated Podcast
In this episode Brian sits down with Guy Eastman and Aron Snyder from Kifarucast podcast. The guys break down the reintroduction of wolves in Colorado. Yes, this is a real thing and a possibility as it is now on the ballot for the residents of Colorado to vote on. This would have major implications and repercussions if passed and something all of us sportsman should be informed about. Also, there is some explicit language in this episode.
Brian Barney is an outdoor writer for Eastmans. He is an adventure bowhunter that spends over 100 days a year hunting our public lands. He has a wealth of knowledge hunting western big game and has a knack for harvesting huge mind blowing trophies.

In this episode, Ben Guttormson tells Frank Peralta how easy it is to hunt Mule Deer, Aron drops his vast knowledge About rifles, and includes a bonus round about instafamous and entitled "influencers".

Jake Downs and Aron Snyder spend some time testing bows and offer their feedback on what worked best for them, what to look for in a bow, as well as advice about traveling with your bow.

The last thing you want after a long day of hunting is to be demoralized by sub-par food at camp.  Enjoy your hunt, enjoy your food.
 
Founded in 2017 in northwest Washington, Off Grid Food Company is a premier manufacturer of high quality, pack-able foods for the backcountry. Nutritionally balanced and hand-crafted, Off Grid Food Company products are meant to thrive in the harshest conditions, where performance is not a choice, but a must. Our small team comes from a background of hunting, fishing, guiding, and professional cooking. Our backgrounds and dedication to our craft ensures a top-notch product in nutrition and taste.
We select each ingredient with thought and purpose. Our proteins provide more pound for pound value than traditional meats, and we source local vegetables, honey, and freeze-dried fruits. We also pick and choose prime sources for ingredients we cannot source locally to make sure our meals are the highest of quality from top to bottom.
Our small-batch processing and in-house freeze-drying allows us to make meals that truly stand apart. Our premium ingredients are skillfully cooked in small batches as an entire meal before they are freeze-dried, allowing us to develop better flavor profile and meal cohesiveness that other freeze-dried meals can’t offer.
Our products were ultimately derived for a need to perform in the backcountry. Every aspect of our products from the ingredients, to the processing, to the packaging, were designed to perform in the wild and were built from years of experience. Our breakfasts, snacks, and meals are conveniently packaged, lightweight, durable, require less water, and re-hydrate quickly.

Patrick Smith, the man who created his own world in which he could thrive in the backcountry, including the outdoor companies Mountain Smith and Kifaru, joins the podcast to share his wealth of knowledge of backpack hunting.  Also, the beginning of this episode, Aron and Patrick provide an update on the status of our forums, and how they will be run in the future.

This episode is all about photography...and gets pretty technical.  If you are interested in getting into photography then this episode is worth your time.  TJ Perez has gone on quite a journey over the last few years learning photography and now has a budding career taking photos of folks who make you feel down right lazy.  TJ and Aron share their years of in field knowledge and recommend how to save money on camera gear.
