This week on the Wing and Tail Podcast, Chris brings you a two-part hybrid episode. In part one, Chris discusses what he’s been seeing in the first few weeks of the season. He dives into what he’s seen in the woods, on camera, and how the bucks have been acting on camera at the family farm. With the New York season opening this week, Chris gives some insight on how he’s going to use both the camera information as well as historical data to try and pinpoint the right first sit for the buck they call “Duke.” After touching on some gear and equipment updates, he finishes up his conversation with his take on morals, ethics, and poaching within both the hunting community and industry.In part 2 of this week’s episode, Chris and Dorge delve into the intricacies of arrow building, focusing on the often-overlooked component of the nock. They discuss the importance of nock fit and its impact on arrow performance, likening it to the tires of a sports car. The conversation highlights the precision required in manufacturing nocks and the challenges posed by variations in string serving sizes. Dorge shares insights into the chemistry and engineering behind nock design, emphasizing the need for consistency and quality in archery equipment. The episode also touches on the broader implications of equipment choices in hunting and archery, encouraging listeners to consider the value of investing in high-quality components for improved accuracy and reliability.
