Summary

After listening to Long Range 1001 and 1002, Erik decided it was time to really give long range a try at the Vortex Extreme 2018 in Wyoming. He sat down with Mark and Jimmy to discuss the practical application of his “Lessons” in going from a regular Wisconsin whitetail hunter to a full-blown long range precision competitor in just one weekend. If you’ve listened to our long range podcasts, but are still nervous to actually put it into action, perhaps Erik’s story will help get you ready for what to expect when you actually get behind the trigger. As always - let us know if there are any topics you'd like covered on the Vortex Nation podcast by asking us on any one of our social media platforms and using #VortexNationPodcast.

podcast will be out. So it really is a great event. We did a lot. Vortex more so just the fact that Eric you've been shooting for a while but long-range

1:06.0

precision-style shooting especially in a competitive environment that was a

1:10.5

pretty new experience for you. Yeah, brand new. That was literally my

1:14.0

when we got out to the extreme was literally the first time that I shot a
