Ethics and Cellular Trail Cameras... A Discussion.
In this episode, Dan sits down with longtime friend Will Cooper from GSM Outdoors, HuntStand, and Stealth Cam to have an honest conversation about one of the most debated topics in modern hunting: cellular trail cameras and fair chase ethics. Having shared several whitetail hunts together over the years, Dan and Will bring plenty of firsthand experience to the table as they discuss where trail cameras add value, where they can be misused, and why intent matters just as much as the technology itself. They also dive into public land etiquette, respecting other hunters, and why the Golden Rule should guide the way we interact with one another in the field. This isn't about telling you what to think—it's about having a thoughtful conversation on how we can preserve the traditions, challenges, and respect that make hunting so meaningful. Whether you're a die-hard trail camera user, a public land hunter, or simply interested in the future of fair chase, we hope this episode gets you thinking.

I HATE TREE STANDS LEFT ON PUBLIC LAND...
Public land belongs to everyone—but that doesn't mean every decision we make out there is ethical or respectful. In today's episode, Dan dives into one of the most debated topics in hunting: public land etiquette. After stumbling across **double-digit permanent tree stands** tucked deep into remote elk country, he asks a series of questions that every hunter should think through. Is it okay to hunt from someone else's tree stand on public land? Should tree stands be left out year-round? Is it acceptable to hang a trail camera on the same water source another hunter is already monitoring? What about checking a trail camera you find on public land? These aren't black-and-white issues, and opinions vary widely across the hunting community. Dan shares his perspective on respecting fellow hunters, avoiding unnecessary conflict, and preserving the public land hunting experience we all value. Whether you're chasing whitetails in the Midwest or bugling bulls in the West, this conversation is about more than tree stands and cameras—it's about treating others the way you'd want to be treated in the mountains. Join the discussion and let us know where you stand on these controversial questions. How do we all play a little nicer in the public land sandbox? 💢 Discount Codes 💢 INITIAL ASCENT - 5% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE PODIUMARCHER.COM 10% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE https://www.podiumarcher.com/collections/all-products-1 BORN PRIMITIVE OUTDOOR - 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://glnk.io/p9vpq/21r PEAX EQUIP - 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://www.peaxequipment.com/ CANVAS CUTTER - 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://canvascutter.com/ WILDERNESS ATHLETE | 20% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://wildernessathlete.com/ SHEEPFEET | 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://bit.ly/SheepFeet onXhunt ELITE Membership | 20% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://bit.ly/ONXHUNT OLLIN | 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://ollin.co/collections/snapshot DARK ENERGY | 10% Off CODE: ELKSHAPE - https://bit.ly/3P5x3BY BLACK RIFLE COFFEE | 20% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE20 - https://blackriflecoffeecompany.pxf.io/9LnW0E FOUNDATION OURDOORS | 20% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE - https://www.foundation-outdoors.com/?sca_ref=10392320.yNY8hl6qQLCpq TRICER GEAR | 10% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE ============================= 📱 Subscribe and Listen to the The ElkShape Podcast HERE: ============================= Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/elkshape/id1315352438 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3EplB7OPWM5HcsT2c0HzEv ============================= This Video was Filmed Using: ============================= AMAZON STORE 👉 https://www.amazon.com/shop/elkshape?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_aipsfshop_X57159T6BSR8HN6Z3T3W A CAM - SONY A1 BODY ➡️ https://amzn.to/3wLZLBW B CAM - SONY A7 IV W/KIT LENS ➡️ https://amzn.to/3InUGST SONY LONG LENS 70-200MM ➡️ https://amzn.to/433SXLW WIRELESS DJI MIC 2 ➡️ https://amzn.to/3uYPku5 STUDIO LENS 24-70MM ➡️ https://amzn.to/3PbhZD8 DJI DRONE ➡️ https://amzn.to/3TqrAZo DJI ACTION 4 ➡️ https://amzn.to/49FDPXA HEADPHONES ➡️ https://amzn.to/4bwRa6c ============================= We are selling hard work!

PICK UP THE STONE! ELKSHAPE PODCAST LIVE Q & A
Today's episode starts a little differently. Before going live on YouTube for an open Q&A, Dan sits down to share a few thoughts from a recent Montana scouting trip and what he learned after putting boots on the ground in elk country. He also discusses why trail cameras can be an incredibly valuable scouting tool—but why they are far from a requirement for consistently finding and harvesting elk. Finally, Dan shares his perspective on the recent controversy surrounding Aron Snyder, the coyote video, and Born Primitive Outdoor's decision to part ways with him. Rather than adding fuel to the fire, Dan discusses the importance of personal responsibility, the spotlight hunters live under, and why extending grace while staying focused on what truly matters is a healthier path forward. After that, it's all about you. Dan goes live to answer viewer questions covering elk hunting, archery, fitness, gear, scouting, and whatever else the audience throws his way. Whether you're preparing for your first western hunt or chasing your best season yet, there's plenty of practical insight packed into this episode. 💢 Discount Codes 💢 INITIAL ASCENT - 5% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE PODIUMARCHER.COM 10% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE https://www.podiumarcher.com/collections/all-products-1 BORN PRIMITIVE OUTDOOR - 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://glnk.io/p9vpq/21r PEAX EQUIP - 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://www.peaxequipment.com/ CANVAS CUTTER - 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://canvascutter.com/ WILDERNESS ATHLETE | 20% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://wildernessathlete.com/ SHEEPFEET | 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://bit.ly/SheepFeet onXhunt ELITE Membership | 20% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://bit.ly/ONXHUNT OLLIN | 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://ollin.co/collections/snapshot DARK ENERGY | 10% Off CODE: ELKSHAPE - https://bit.ly/3P5x3BY BLACK RIFLE COFFEE | 20% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE20 - https://blackriflecoffeecompany.pxf.io/9LnW0E FOUNDATION OURDOORS | 20% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE - https://www.foundation-outdoors.com/?sca_ref=10392320.yNY8hl6qQLCpq TRICER GEAR | 10% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE ============================= 📱 Subscribe and Listen to the The ElkShape Podcast HERE: ============================= Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/elkshape/id1315352438 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3EplB7OPWM5HcsT2c0HzEv ============================= This Video was Filmed Using: ============================= AMAZON STORE 👉 https://www.amazon.com/shop/elkshape?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_aipsfshop_X57159T6BSR8HN6Z3T3W A CAM - SONY A1 BODY ➡️ https://amzn.to/3wLZLBW B CAM - SONY A7 IV W/KIT LENS ➡️ https://amzn.to/3InUGST SONY LONG LENS 70-200MM ➡️ https://amzn.to/433SXLW WIRELESS DJI MIC 2 ➡️ https://amzn.to/3uYPku5 STUDIO LENS 24-70MM ➡️ https://amzn.to/3PbhZD8 DJI DRONE ➡️ https://amzn.to/3TqrAZo DJI ACTION 4 ➡️ https://amzn.to/49FDPXA HEADPHONES ➡️ https://amzn.to/4bwRa6c ============================= We are selling hard work!

ELKSHAPE PODCAST - TOWSON JENKINS
Today on the ElkShape Podcast, Dan sits down with his good friend Towson Jenkins from Wyoming—a bowhunter who quietly and consistently gets it done year after year on western big game. While his success in the mountains speaks for itself, what stands out even more is who Towson is when the tags are put away: a man of deep faith, a devoted husband, and the proud father of three beautiful daughters. In this conversation, Towson shares the journey that changed his shooting forever as he opens up about overcoming target panic, rebuilding his shot process, and finding a new level of confidence behind the bow. Whether you've battled target panic yourself or simply want to become a more consistent archer, there's a lot to learn from his experience. The conversation goes well beyond archery. Towson explains why he made a major career shift to prioritize being more present for his family, what it means to pursue success without sacrificing what matters most, and how his faith continues to shape every decision he makes. To wrap things up, Towson talks about his ambitious goal of stepping into the professional ranks of target archery while continuing to chase western big game. It's an honest conversation about excellence, discipline, faith, family, and the relentless pursuit of improvement—both on the range and in life. Topics covered: Conquering target panic Building a repeatable shot process Consistent success in western bowhunting Faith, marriage, and fatherhood Making career decisions that prioritize family Training for professional target archery Lessons that apply to every bowhunter If you enjoy conversations that go deeper than gear and tactics, this episode is for you. 💢 Discount Codes 💢 INITIAL ASCENT - 5% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE PODIUMARCHER.COM 10% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE https://www.podiumarcher.com/collections/all-products-1 BORN PRIMITIVE OUTDOOR - 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://glnk.io/p9vpq/21r PEAX EQUIP - 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://www.peaxequipment.com/ CANVAS CUTTER - 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://canvascutter.com/ WILDERNESS ATHLETE | 20% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://wildernessathlete.com/ SHEEPFEET | 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://bit.ly/SheepFeet onXhunt ELITE Membership | 20% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://bit.ly/ONXHUNT OLLIN | 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://ollin.co/collections/snapshot DARK ENERGY | 10% Off CODE: ELKSHAPE - https://bit.ly/3P5x3BY BLACK RIFLE COFFEE | 20% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE20 - https://blackriflecoffeecompany.pxf.io/9LnW0E FOUNDATION OURDOORS | 20% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE - https://www.foundation-outdoors.com/?sca_ref=10392320.yNY8hl6qQLCpq TRICER GEAR | 10% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE ============================= 📱 Subscribe and Listen to the The ElkShape Podcast HERE: ============================= Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/elkshape/id1315352438 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3EplB7OPWM5HcsT2c0HzEv ============================= This Video was Filmed Using: ============================= AMAZON STORE 👉 https://www.amazon.com/shop/elkshape?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_aipsfshop_X57159T6BSR8HN6Z3T3W A CAM - SONY A1 BODY ➡️ https://amzn.to/3wLZLBW B CAM - SONY A7 IV W/KIT LENS ➡️ https://amzn.to/3InUGST SONY LONG LENS 70-200MM ➡️ https://amzn.to/433SXLW WIRELESS DJI MIC 2 ➡️ https://amzn.to/3uYPku5 STUDIO LENS 24-70MM ➡️ https://amzn.to/3PbhZD8 DJI DRONE ➡️ https://amzn.to/3TqrAZo DJI ACTION 4 ➡️ https://amzn.to/49FDPXA HEADPHONES ➡️ https://amzn.to/4bwRa6c ============================= We are selling hard work!

Getting Ripped Off By CHINA... ANKR-POINT
Today Dan is joined by Dave and Logan from ANKR-POINT to discuss their innovative new product, the challenges of building a brand in today's digital marketplace, and a growing problem that is impacting businesses across countless industries: counterfeit products and online piracy. The guys pull back the curtain on how overseas copycat companies are ripping off ANKR-POINT's products, branding, photos, videos, and marketing content to create convincing fake websites and advertisements. These counterfeit operations spend thousands of dollars promoting knockoff versions that look legitimate but are often built with inferior materials, fail to meet specifications, take weeks or months longer to arrive, and leave customers frustrated after being scammed. Dave and Logan share the real-world impact these fraudulent businesses have on small companies, customer trust, and innovation. They discuss the uphill battle of reporting fake websites, removing deceptive ads, and protecting intellectual property in a world where counterfeiters can seemingly reappear overnight. This episode is a fascinating look at the unseen challenges entrepreneurs face when bringing products to market and a reminder for consumers to do their homework before clicking "buy." While the conversation centers around ANKR-POINT's experience, the issue reaches far beyond the hunting industry and affects brands of every size. The guys remain hopeful that increased awareness, stronger enforcement, and industry-wide action can help curb the problem in the future. https://elkshape.com/products/ankr-point%E2%84%A2-bow-retention-system?_pos=1&_psq=ANK&_ss=e&_v=1.0 💢 Discount Codes 💢 INITIAL ASCENT - 5% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE PODIUMARCHER.COM 10% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE https://www.podiumarcher.com/collections/all-products-1 BORN PRIMITIVE OUTDOOR - 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://glnk.io/p9vpq/21r PEAX EQUIP - 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://www.peaxequipment.com/ CANVAS CUTTER - 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://canvascutter.com/ WILDERNESS ATHLETE | 20% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://wildernessathlete.com/ SHEEPFEET | 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://bit.ly/SheepFeet onXhunt ELITE Membership | 20% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://bit.ly/ONXHUNT OLLIN | 10% Off Code: ELKSHAPE - https://ollin.co/collections/snapshot DARK ENERGY | 10% Off CODE: ELKSHAPE - https://bit.ly/3P5x3BY BLACK RIFLE COFFEE | 20% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE20 - https://blackriflecoffeecompany.pxf.io/9LnW0E FOUNDATION OURDOORS | 20% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE - https://www.foundation-outdoors.com/?sca_ref=10392320.yNY8hl6qQLCpq TRICER GEAR | 10% OFF CODE: ELKSHAPE ============================= 📱 Subscribe and Listen to the The ElkShape Podcast HERE: ============================= Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/elkshape/id1315352438 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3EplB7OPWM5HcsT2c0HzEv ============================= This Video was Filmed Using: ============================= AMAZON STORE 👉 https://www.amazon.com/shop/elkshape?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_aipsfshop_X57159T6BSR8HN6Z3T3W A CAM - SONY A1 BODY ➡️ https://amzn.to/3wLZLBW B CAM - SONY A7 IV W/KIT LENS ➡️ https://amzn.to/3InUGST SONY LONG LENS 70-200MM ➡️ https://amzn.to/433SXLW WIRELESS DJI MIC 2 ➡️ https://amzn.to/3uYPku5 STUDIO LENS 24-70MM ➡️ https://amzn.to/3PbhZD8 DJI DRONE ➡️ https://amzn.to/3TqrAZo DJI ACTION 4 ➡️ https://amzn.to/49FDPXA HEADPHONES ➡️ https://amzn.to/4bwRa6c ============================= We are selling hard work!
