In this week's episode of The Deer Gear Podcast I am joined by Joe Miles of ASIO Gear. Joe started ASIO Gear for the tree stand hunter in mind. (Saddle Hunter's too). The Camo pattern is uniquely designed to keep you concealed from a Whitetail Deer's eyes. ASIO Gear also pride's themselves on having garments that tailor to the tree stand hunters - meaning they are quiet and functional. They have offerings from 90 Degree temps to 15 Degree temps, so wherever you find yourself bowhunting whitetails - there is something for you. ASIO Gear 2.0 Is continuing to solve problems for whitetail bowhunters with a better collar design, quieter fabric where you need it, and much more! Last time Joe and I talked we left off talking about his arrow setup, and he has done a lot of testing regarding heavy vs light arrows and fixed vs mechanical broadheads. When logic comes in, Joe has probably hunted more animals than I will ever see in my lifetime - So I respect his opinions greatly! I guarantee you won't want to miss this one. WE DISCUSS: - ASIO Gear 2.0 - Preparing your gear for a new archery season - Where should your gear priorities be? - The best archery drills to prepare for a hunt - Heavy vs light arrows!!! - Fixed vs Mechanical Broadheads and MORE!

But, which one is right for you? For me, I use OnX Maps for all of my mapping needs. If you are on the fence about trying a new scouting app, this podcast is right for you!

In this week's episode of The Deer Gear Podcast I am joined by Tyler Terry from Winterhawk Outfitters and Dorge Huang of Firenock to discuss my experiences switching from an 85% Let of bow to an 80% Let off bow.
