For most, bow-building comes from a desire to feel closer to the hunting experience. Eric Clem took a different path: Part of an underground archery competition, held after-hours in New York offices, Eric felt driven to create better performing equipment. Soon after the Brooklyn Bowyer was born. But it was only after a life changing accident, that a move to LA and a new world of hunting opportunities appeared. As strange as it sounds, it's actually possible to hunt deer at first light while the busy world of Los Angeles twinkles below.

A huge thank you again to Eric for sharing his time and stories with us today!

In this Episode Robin and William head off into the mushroom woods to celebrate what has been arguably the GOAT of all seasons. Not only do they fill their packs, but as usual William drops a metric ton of wisdom about finding our quarry, black trumpets and giant hedgehogs. Not only do they manage to make a few observations about life and the natural world, they also discover a strange shroom variant that neither have ever seen before.

A huge thankyou again to William for his time and friendship!

Just like our bodies, our brains can be trained to interact with the world in different and better ways. In this episode Robin lays out a simple exercise that has helped him to stay in a positive headspace when times get tough - Ultimately it's far more to do with our own perception, and the way we respond to situations that determines how we feel. A little positivity can make a massive difference, whether its the last day of a tough hunt in the mountains, or that moment your boss hands you another ridiculous deadline.

A fantastic full-length-interview episode is currently sitting in the torpedo tube, ready to go, unfortunately a small technological whoopsy, courtesy of the hosting platform is keeping the hatch firmly shut. The bookies have high odds on EP 88 with Amy Siewe will be out before Monday's end, so keep an eye out!

Apologies for the disruption - here's some quality waffling as consolation.

For some, the Urushiol oil found in Poison Oak, Poison Ivy and Sumac can be completely debilitating. Given that it doesn't exist in England at all, Robin quickly built up a pretty decent sensitivity to this irritating member of the wilderness family. In this episode he shares some of the most effective techniques for mitigating Poison Oak while out in the field.

Here is the mentioned youtube video that changed everything

In this Field Notes Episode, Robin follows Jason through day 1 of bowhunting elk in the Colorado mountains. Amongst the many miles and close encounters, they find time to share stories over a few snacks. Warning: some snacks may come with a very unsavory nickname. All food in this episode came prepared by podcasting legend and well-loved ‘Camp Mom’ Michael Scrogan of The Hunting Stories Podcast. There’s even a surprise appearance from another hunter who goes by the name Jeremy.

Thanks again to Jason, Michael and Jeremy for a fantastic adventure!
