UPO Live On Air Ep. 73- One Piece Of Hunting Advice Everyone Gives... That's Wrong
6d ago00:33:54Tap to summarizeThere are few things in hunting that get passed down more often than advice.Some of it comes from decades of experience. Some of it comes from mentors who genuinely want to help. And some of it… well… has simply been repeated so many times that nobody ever stops to ask whether it’s actually true.“Never shoot a young buck.”“Only hunt mornings.”“Scent control is everything.”“Big bucks don’t move in daylight.” We’ve all heard them. Some of us have probably said them. But how many of these so-called rules are universal truths, and how many only apply under certain circumstances?Today, we’re putting some of the most common pieces of hunting advice under the microscope. Not because we’re trying to tell you your granddad was wrong or that decades of tradition don’t matter, but because hunting isn’t black and white. Every property is different. Every animal is different. Every hunter has different goals.Sometimes the best advice in one situation can be the worst advice in another.So today, we’re asking a simple question…What’s one piece of hunting advice everyone gives… that you think is wrong?UPO Gear & Such- https://uponation.co/UPO Social Media- https://linktrh.ee/underpressureoutdoorsBecome a Patron- https://www.patreon.com/user?u=45295718Deep Roots Rifle Company- Use Code UPO10 to save 10%

Ep. 341 Turkey Slams, Books and The Next Generation of Hunters with Taylor Boyett
1w ago01:28:23Tap to summarizeEvery once in a while you meet someone who reminds you that passion doesn’t come with an age requirement. This week’s guest is 16-year-old Taylor Boyett, and she’s already built a résumé that would make a lot of lifelong hunters proud.Taylor has completed two single-season turkey slams, an accomplishment that takes dedication, persistence, and countless miles on the road chasing longbeards across the country. But she didn’t stop there. She took those experiences and turned them into two published books, documenting the adventures, the lessons learned, and the memories made along the way.In this episode, we sit down to talk about what drives someone her age to chase ambitious goals, what she’s learned from hunting some of the toughest birds in North America, what it’s like becoming a published author before most people have graduated high school, and why she’s so passionate about sharing the outdoors with others.The future of hunting depends on the next generation stepping up, and conversations like this should leave every hunter optimistic about where we’re headed.So settle in, turn the volume up, and join us for a great conversation with Taylor Boyett, right here on the Under Pressure Outdoors Podcast.Taylor BoyettLinktreeFacebook Hunting CompassTikTok TaylorhuntingcompassInstagram Thehuntingcompass24The Big Four AmazonBow and Soul AmazonHangFree- https://hangfree.co/ Use code PRESSURE10 at checkout for 10% off your next order!Dayton Archers Club- https://daytonaarchersinc.com/Mention UPO and get 10% off your membershipBecome a Patron- https://www.patreon.com/user?u=45295718UPO Gear & Such- https://uponation.co/UPO Social Media- https://linktr.ee/underpressureoutdoors

UPO Live On AIr Ep. 72- The Hunting License: The Fee That Saved American Wildlife
2w ago00:25:46Tap to summarizeThere are few topics in the hunting world that will spark a debate faster than this one.Should hunters even have to buy a hunting license?Recently, a Florida gubernatorial candidate stated that he doesn’t believe hunters should have to purchase one. And while this conversation may have started with a political statement, the bigger issue is much more important.It comes down to understanding what a hunting license actually is.Because a hunting license isn’t just a fee. It isn’t just a piece of paper or another government requirement.It’s one of the foundations of the conservation system that brought American wildlife back from the brink.Today, we’re looking at the history of the hunting license, why it was created, where the money goes, and what could happen if we removed it.We’ll talk about how America nearly lost species like the bison, how hunters helped rebuild those populations, and why the same system that funds hunting today is also responsible for protecting countless other species.Because the question isn’t just, “Why do I need a hunting license?”The real question is:If hunting licenses disappear tomorrow, who pays for conservation?UPO Gear & Such- https://uponation.co/ UPO Social Media- https://linktrh.ee/underpressureoutdoorsBecome a Patron- https://www.patreon.com/user?u=45295718Deep Roots Rifle Company- Use Code UPO10 to save 10%

Ep. 340- Bovine Scatology III: Greater Minds Should've Prevailed
2w ago01:33:04Tap to summarizeI’m back at it again this week with Ian and Vince, just a little opinionated friendly banter. A large portion of our conversation was centered around the opinionated question of “ What is fair chase?”. Now there’s the textbook definition that boone and crockett uses to judge if a trophy was harvested within the boundaries necessary to make the record books and then there's the opinionated answers you’ll find in this episode. Is duck hunting flooded fields fair chase? Is hiring a guide fair chase? Ultimately in my opinion as long as it's legal and fits the definition set forth by boone and crockett I personally believe it falls in the fair chase category. I guess the real question is, what is fair at all in life?

UPO Live On Air Ep. 71- The One Rifle Debate: From First Deer Rifle to the Ultimate North American Hunting Rifle
3w ago00:40:25Tap to summarizeThere are few debates in the hunting world that will start a conversation faster than this one:If you could only own one rifle for the rest of your hunting career, what would it be?Would you choose a lightweight AR-15 hunting rifle that is easy to shoot, low recoil, and perfect for introducing new hunters, youth hunters, and recoil-sensitive shooters to the outdoors?Would you choose a .308 Winchester, .30-06 Springfield, or 7mm-08 that can handle almost any whitetail deer hunt and still have the capability for bigger game?Or would you step up to something like a 7mm PRC or .300 Winchester Magnum and build the ultimate North American big game rifle?Today on the Under Pressure Outdoors Podcast, we’re breaking down the ultimate hunting rifle debate.We’re talking about AR-15 hunting rifles, deer rifles, elk rifles, the best all-around hunting calibers, and what it really takes to build a rifle that can handle everything from whitetail deer and hogs to elk, moose, and other big game.Because the truth is, there may not be one perfect hunting rifle for everyone.The best rifle depends on how you hunt, where you hunt, and what you’re asking that rifle to do.So whether you’re looking for your first hunting rifle, upgrading your deer rifle, or trying to choose the one rifle you would take anywhere in North America, this episode is for you.Let’s get into it.UPO Gear & Such- https://uponation.co/UPO Social Media- https://linktrh.ee/underpressureoutdoorsBecome a Patron- https://www.patreon.com/user?u=45295718Deep Roots Rifle Company- Use Code UPO10 to save 10%

Ep. 339 Pattern Pros USA: Saving Money & Putting Pellets Where It Counts
3w ago01:26:03Tap to summarizeThis week we’re talking about something that every turkey hunter, waterfowl hunter or any hunter carrying a shotgun into the woods should care about — making sure your shotgun is actually ready when it matters most.On this episode, we’re joined by Ryan from Pattern Pros USA to talk about shotgun patterning, ammunition selection, and how hunters can take the guesswork out of choosing the right load for their firearm. From turkey loads and TSS to waterfowl ammunition, choke combinations, and understanding what your shotgun is really capable of, this conversation is all about improving confidence before you ever step into the field.Too often hunters spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars on gear but never take the time to truly test the most important connection between them and the animal — the ammunition coming out of the barrel. Pattern Pros USA is helping hunters simplify that process by putting multiple loads and options in one place so they can find what works best for their setup.Whether you’re chasing a spring gobbler, sitting in a duck blind, or just want to become a more prepared and ethical hunter, this episode is packed with information that can help you make better decisions and increase your odds of success.Pattern Pros HangFree- https://hangfree.co/ Use code UPO10 at checkout for 10% off your next order!Dayton Archers Club- https://daytonaarchersinc.com/ Mention UPO and get 10% off your membershipBecome a Patron- https://www.patreon.com/user?u=45295718UPO Gear & Such- https://uponation.co/ UPO Social Media- https://linktr.ee/underpressureoutdoors

UPO Live On Air Ep. 70- Could Daniel Boone Survive As A Modern Hunter?
4w ago00:36:04Tap to summarizeToday we’re diving into a question that’s guaranteed to start an argument around any hunting campfire: Could Daniel Boone survive as a modern hunter?We’ve tackled the opposite question before—could today’s average hunter survive in the mountain man era? And while technology has made us more comfortable and, in many ways, more effective, it also made us wonder if we’ve become too dependent on it.So today we’re flipping the script.Take away the legend, the folklore, and the coonskin cap, and look at Daniel Boone for what he really was: one of the greatest woodsmen to ever live. But would those skills still hold up today? Could a man who hunted with a flintlock and lived off the land adapt to trail cameras, GPS mapping apps, private property, hunting leases, and pages of hunting regulations? Or has hunting changed so much that even someone like Boone would have a steep learning curve?Throughout this episode, we’re going to compare Boone’s world to ours—looking at equipment, access to land, deer populations, regulations, and, most importantly, the skills that actually make a successful hunter. Along the way, we’ll ask whether we’ve gained more than we’ve lost and whether there are lessons from a hunter who lived more than two centuries ago that still apply every time we step into the woods.So grab your coffee, settle into your stand, or turn the volume up on your drive, because this is going to be a fun one.UPO Gear & Such- https://uponation.co/ UPO Social Media- https://linktrh.ee/underpressureoutdoorsBecome a Patron- https://www.patreon.com/user?u=45295718Deep Roots Rifle Company- Use Code UPO10 to save 10%

Ep. 338 Finally On The Board: A 25-26 Hunting Season Recap with Jake Bigby
4w ago01:42:59Tap to summarizeThe shows we record this time of year can tend to be some of my favorite and hopefully you guys enjoy them as well. We get to branch out from the usual and talk about all kinds of stuff but mostly we get to spend time reflecting on what we did right in the last hunting season, what we did wrong and how we might get a chance to do things a bit differently this year. In this episode I sat down with Jake and talked about the hammer of a gobbler he was fortunate to harvest this year for his first bird, not gonna lie I’m a bit jealous, and just share some fun stories from seasons past.HangFree- https://hangfree.co/ Use code UPO10 at checkout for 10% off your next order!Dayton Archers Club- https://daytonaarchersinc.com/ Mention UPO and get 10% off your membershipBecome a Patron- https://www.patreon.com/user?u=45295718UPO Gear & Such- https://uponation.co/ UPO Social Media- https://linktr.ee/underpressureoutdoors

Ep. 337 Bass All Year with Connor McElecaney
Jun 2902:12:47Tap to summarizeA little backstory on this week's guest, I met Connor a few weeks ago at the Ducks Unlimited banquet and wouldn't you know it, we had quite a bit in common. Connor runs the social media pages and youtube channel bass all year and we sat down and had a long conversation about well, almost everything but bass. We talked deer hunting all over the South East, duck hunting all over Florida and the US and did in the end talk a little bass fishing and of course the young man in the very beginning needs no introduction as he's a repeat guest whenever he’s got a great story to tell so buckle up for my son Rhylan’s recent story about a big ole red ear sunfish that is by far his personal best and he’ll have a tough time beating it for sure.
