Welcome to the Knock on Archery Podcast where we bring all archers and bow hunters together

from all walks of life with the goal to educate, empower and inspire you to be better both

in the field and on the range.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, everybody.

Welcome back to another Knock on Podcast.

I'm here with a long time friend and I don't know.

You're a leader in so many different arenas, Steve.

Dr. Steven Leath and we first met when you were present at ISU and we've had friendships

through your presence at Auburn and now you're doing a lot of stuff in the hunting community

which is really awesome because you've been a hunter forever.

That's kind of how our friendship began was talking archery and bow hunting.

That's right.

It's great to be with you again, too, John.

To be here at the house and see what you've done with your facility is fantastic.

I know.

I'm in heaven in here.

I've got different places for different things but honestly, I've just got to the point

where I'm somewhat a recluse when I'm at home.

I like to be reclusive and when I leave Iowa, I like to be a people person.

But yeah, this is kind of my, I guess, my, I don't know what you'd call it, like a sanctuary.

A lot of bow parts, a lot of accessory parts and a lot of R&D goes on in here.

But it's, honestly, for that sort of thing, you have to have it close to you.
