Before hitting the road for Hunt Expo, Steve & Mark answer your listener questions (and go on a couple of rants) on this Monday Minute episode.

Luke joins us to share what he learned as he spent 20+ days pursuing elk in the mountains outside his home. We discuss what he observed before the season, how elk behavior changed after opening day, what he noticed about elk vocalization throughout September, and how his rifle season compared to his archery season.

Welcome to The First Monday. In these episodes, Steve & Mark talk through what's going on for them that month in the categories of The Gear, The Hunt, and the Hunter, as well as what's going on with Exo Mtn Gear. If you want an unfiltered, behind-the-scenes look at what we are doing, researching, and learning, or just what we are excited about, this is it.

Scott Gillespie of Rocky Mountain Big Game Recovery joins us to discuss the use of tracking dogs to help hunters recover big game animals in the Rocky Mountain West. We discuss how hunters can find a tracking team. When to contact a team. What it costs to have a tracking team help recover an animal. And much more.
