Welcome to Wild Arrow Outdoors, where archery isn't just a sport, its a passion. Join us as we discuss everything archery, from bowhunting adventures and competitive shooting to bow tuning, equipment testing, archery coaching, and the latest tactics and gear. Not to mention some incredible guests
With many years of experience in the woods, and on the tournament trail. we share real world knowledge, honest opinions, hunting stories, and plenty of good conversations.
Wether you are a seasoned bowhunter, competitive archer, or just getting started, there is something here for you.
Steve is joined by Troy (Ranch Fairy) Fowler. We tried to keep the discussion based on whitetail hunting and arrows, but we took a few turns along the journey. Obviously, this is a non-scripted conversation that just went where it went. I get into the success that I personally have had since changing to a heavier arrow set up and we talk about failures in the past.

Phil takes a great 10 point on Halloween
Team member Phil had made a vow on an earlier podcast that he was going to kill a nice buck this year in the area that he had scouted and determined to be a good spot. Last week, I gave him some crap about not getting it done yet. Well, Halloween morning he made it happen. Great 10 pointer shot at 18 yards. Hear his really cool story about how it all went down.

Mental Management with Todd Bender
Wether you are shooting a gun, a bow, or swinging a golf club, most people say that the action is 90% mental and 10% physical. Odd part is that MOST competitors never work on the 90% part. On this episode, we welcome 26 time NSAA (National Skeet Shooters Association) World Champion to the show. Todd does an excellent job of helping us understand what we need to do to be more consistent while taking the shot. Todd also has been working with Lanny Bassham, author of the great book, "With Winning in Mind" that is used by a lot of champions, for past 17 years. Co-host Doug Kyle has also won a skeet shooting World Championship and is a pro archer. Great conversation.

What Makes a Great Bowhunter?
On this episode, Steve and Phil each separately made a top 5 list of what makes a great bowhunter. Decades of experience chasing whitetails with a stick and a string have taught us a lot about what it takes to be great.
