Elk Die Tough with Jim Huntsman
After a couple weeks absent, I was able to get off the mountain long enough to knock out a quick update about the 2026 season. There is a lot to talk about between elk soaking up lead and arrows to game wardens to knowing your bow and rifles on a deeper level! Hoping you guys are having a fantastic hunting season, regularly scheduled episodes are coming now that my guiding season is over… Oh, and Happy Birthday to The United States Marine Corps! jim@thewesternhuntsman.com This episode is thanks to our sponsors!

September Dreams with Dusty Rasmussen
Dusty Rasmussen is a Nebraska based hunter who travelled to Idaho this year for an archery elk hunt. I couldn't think of anyone better to wrap up our September Dreams series for the year! Dusty is a true outdoorsman, grinding it out on public land, OTC tags out of State and making it happen. He tells us the story of how he came to putting an arrow in an Idaho bull without even using calls. I really enjoyed having him on the show, and you guys will love hearing his story!

September Dreams with Jordan Breshears
As September winds down, we are picking up with some September Dreams series, the episodes that tell the story of successful archery elk hunts! In this first installment, I bring on return guest, Jordan Breshears, who drew a somewhat limited tag in Wyoming and notched a tag on a great public land bull. We talk about the terrain, his strategy, some unexpected moments with elk and other hunters, missed opportunities, and how he was able to slip in and stick a solid bull elk with his bow. Shortly after recording this episode on the same day, Jordan also stuck a great buck in Georgia while on a work trip… The dude is as solid a bowhunter as they come!

School of September: 2026 Summary
In this final installment of School of September for this season, I offer up a summary of all the SOS episodes of 2026, key takeaways, and remind us all of the three key things that must happen to put a bull on the ground this year. With all the episodes we do around archery elk hunting, it's easy to get lost in some of the more technical hunting strategies. Simplify your process, focus on the fundamentals, and remember there's more than one way to skin a cat! Good luck out there this September! This episode is thanks to our sponsors!

School of September with Tony Gilbertson
Here we are! September has arrived!! I thought it quite fitting to bring on my friend, Tony Gilbertson, for this installment of School of September. Tony is two-time RMEF Elk Calling champ, Husband, Father, Christian, and serves on the Phelps Game Calls Pro Team. In this episode, Tony shares his key strategies for locating bulls, determining their temperament, and how to call in different bulls with different attitudes to within bow range. It's an excellent conversation and Tony gets right to the point to what matters most. This is a great listen on your way to archery elk camp! Tony on Instagram This episode is thanks to our sponsors!

School of September with Joel Turner
Joel Turner is a former law enforcement officer, sniper, family man, and founder of Shot IQ and Mountain Whisper (MTNWISPR). He's also one heck of an elk caller! Joel returns to the show with a vengeance, bringing some serious archery shot strategy and calling techniques. He shares a calf in distress call he used to call in 67 bulls last season and it's one we all need in our back pocket. Joel is a solid American, excellent trainer, and a dude that I'm proud to call my friend. Do not, I repeat, do not miss this episode!! Joel on Instagram This episode is thanks to our sponsors!

West of Wild with Austin Arithson
I came across Austin's Instagram a while back and hit the follow button. He kept posting interesting, thought provoking, or just flat out entertaining stuff so I decided to invite him on the show. This is often how I end up with guests, sometimes it's good, sometimes not so much. In this case, I'm sure glad I did! Austin is a guide, hunter, Husband, Father, and downright great dude. This episode kind of bounces all over multiple topics from mule deer management to non-resident hunters to rifle elk hunting strategies. I love discussions like this, I learn a lot by working through issues with genuine dudes like Austin, and you will too! Tune in everywhere and seriously, you gotta follow his Instagram, it's a good one! Show Sponsors!
