This week we talk with Train to Hunt national qualifier and host of the Dads and Angels Podcast Kyle Mork. Kyle was a first time competitor in the Train to Hunt event and set his sights on winning from the moment he signed up.  Kyle was able to take second in the Mens Open  division and that was enough to earn him a spot in the national event. Kyle outlines in the podcast the training and motivation that allowed him to be successful as well as what it is like to compete in one of these events.  Kyle also outlines the basics of the event and what you can expect if you were thinking of competing in one of these events.

This week we go over our experiences at the Total Archery Challenge at the Boyne Mountain Resort in Michigan.  We are joined once again by Uncle Frank as well as his son Chris.  We talk to Chris to get his perspective on The Total Archery Challenge from the perspective of a shooter who isn’t quite as into archery as we are. In talking with people about this event the sentiment I heard most was “I’d love to do that but….” and fill in the blank. Whether it was confidence, equipment or fear of losing arrows, we thought it would be good to have that perspective brought onto the podcast.  We also go through the June 2018 Bowhunter Box Club subscription box and outline a giveaway we are doing with the Backcountry Hunters and Anglers.

We are joined for this episode in studio by Ben Freed and Adam Engweiler from Death By Archery. These guys are lifelong friends and   super passionate Bowhunters who got into bowhunting via two very different avenues.  During the episode we talk Michigan whitetail hunting, Georgia hog hunting with Holy Southern outdoors and Bowhunting Pope and Young class bears in northern Minnesota.  These guys are great and we will definitely be bringing them on again.
