Beyond the Kill – Details, episodes & analysis

On this episode, Matt Gagnon shares the powerful capabilities of dogs trained for blood tracking and recovery of big game. Matt and his colleagues across the US are deeply passionate dog owners and practitioners of a skillset that, when needed and leveraged, can literally save a hunt from the most unfortunate of outcomes...a hit but unrecovered animal. 

 Matt's love and passion for his Malinois and her capabilities is the ultimate example of the deep bonds and history between humans, dogs and hunting.

We have all heard that you should cool down after exercise but as adults, and especially men, we rarely set aside the time for this.

One of the issues that plagues bowhunters is pain in and around the shoulder after taking some time off over the winter. Starting the year with a shoulder injury is obviously not ideal.

Wardo provides a few easy and effective ways to cool down your shoulder to prevent injury after slinging too many arrows.

In this episode, Nolan talks with Matt Ward or Wardo as the listeners may know him. Matt is the host of the Hard Yards Podcast under the BTK network, formerly Quick & Dirty with Wardo. While he is newer to hunting, Matt has jumped into the deep end of mountain hunting in the last few years. 

In a short time, Matt has hunted Elk in the southern Rockies, Stone Sheep in the northern Rockies, archery mule deer in Alberta, and assistant guided for California Bighorn Sheep along the Fraser. We talk about his perspective shift and lessons learned along his journey.
