Steve West and Travis Price from Steve's Outdoor Adventures welcome Tony Smotherman, the infamous Traveling Hunter, as the guest on today's show.

He is one of the foremost experts on muzzleloader hunting and shooting in the world today.They talk guns and ammo, muzzleloaders, hunting stories, dream hunts and more on today's podcast.
Muzzleloading rifles have evolved rapidly over the last 30 years and no one knows more about it than does my guest today. Tony Smotherman was with Knight rifles in the beginning, and now is Influencer Relations manager with CVA. His knowledge of Muzzleloaders and their advancements are second to none. This podcast will enlighten and entertain you as we discuss the evolution of the muzzleloading rifle.
I've been on the hunt for a lightweight mountain rifle for a few years now and just recently learned of Bergara Rifles USA after a friend said I should check them out. I looked them up and reached out to learn more and the next thing I knew, I was on the phone with Tony Smotherman talking about the Bergara backstory. Since this is a backpacking podcast, I think we're due for an episode regarding a backpacking friendly mountain rifle. That's exactly what the Bergara Premier Series Mountain Rifle 2.0 is. It's light, durable, and comes in a number of popular hunting calibers.This episode might be focused on getting to know Bergara and what they do best, but I think it's more than that. Tony shares his personal story of how he got into the outdoors and I think it's something a lot of people can relate to.This is what I love about this podcast. I can cover something as simple as a backcountry rifle and the company that makes it while simultaneously driving home the idea that we all have something in common, regardless of where we are from and what we do in the backcountry.For those backcountry hunters out there listening, you'll FOR SURE want to check out Bergara after this episode. And for those non-hunters, I think you'll still enjoy the episode from the perspective of learning about other outdoor cultures.By Land,Emory R.

We talk with Tony Smotherman about hunting out-of-state whitetails, public land hunts, strategies, tactics and more. Residing in Tennessee, but long known as the Travelin' Hunter®, Tony comes to this title honestly, averaging 15,000 miles in the Spring and Fall in search of critters all across this great land. Traveling to hunt is his passion, and has been his way of life for over 20 years. Tony's career has included numerous professional associations with some of the most respected companies in the outdoor industry. He has been a mainstay on both TV and various entertainment and educational video productions such as the safety and instructional DVD's included with every Knight Rifle sold during the Iowa company's final six years. He now co-hosts the safety and instructional videos for the number one muzzleloader builder in the country, CVA, and also manages their National Pro-Staff. Most recently, Tony has been behind the wheel and in front of the camera hosting his show titled..yep..you guessed it..Travelin' Hunter® where he highlights great hunting locations along with the unique characters or settings of the region. In times past, Tony has also been the commercial spokesperson for several products that he used and trusted throughtout his hunting career. Commercial endorsements were created for Barnes Bullets, The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, and The National Wild Turkey Federation. He is also is the public face for bear hunting for the Newfoundland Board of Tourism. Along with all of his other duties, Tony is also considered a notable land management and real estate expert, currently working with LandGuys in Illinois. The proof of his dedication to the outdoors can be seen in his commitment to his own personal land holdings in both Illinois and Tennessee which consistently yield great animals. Video and television isn't Tony's only venue however. He has been an award winning outdoor writer for over 20 years and was the owner and editor of his home state's largest outdoor publication, Tennessee Outdoor News, for over 10 years. Tony is often contacted to be quoted as an expert on various editorial pieces by others in the outdoor writing community. He has also been awarded the highly coveted title of "Tennessee Outdoor Communicator of the Year" by the Tennessee Wildlife Federation. Among all these other things that keep him busy, Tony is a much sought after public speaker with his topics ranging from....Top End Hunting Locations to Travel to with a Muzzleloader to our 2nd Amendment Rights. As anyone who has ever met him can attest, Tony is also the author of untold numbers of southern witticisms, and if you don't believe that, he will quickly tell you it's the truth just the same as 40lbs of dough makes a big biscuit.
