Big Hunt Guys

This week on the Big Hunt Guys Podcast, Brady and Trail sit down with bowhunter and researcher James Yates to talk all things mule deer and archery. James dives into his approach to spot-and-stalk mule deer hunting, what he’s learned from years of hunting the West, and how he breaks down stalks in big country. The conversation also covers James’ in-depth arrow ballistics study from last year, what the data revealed about arrow performance, and how it challenges some common assumptions in the archery world. He also shares what new research and testing he’s currently working on and where arrow performance conversations may be headed next.
