There are tradeoffs when shooting a fixed blade broadhead with slighter blood trails and lesser wound channels. But fixed blade broadheads are known for handling bone, remaining durable, and solid penetration. Can mechanical broadheads bust through a mature buck shoulder? And, if so, how do well do mechanical broadheads survive the "trauma" of hitting a shoulder? In today's episode, Jacob shares the results from his recent field test where he shot the 125 grain versions of the Beast broadhead, a Rage Hypodermic broadhead, a Sevr 2.0 broadhead, and a T2 broadhead into 4 separate mature buck shoulders. The results were interesting. Thanks for listening.

In today's episode, Jacob shares some of his early thoughts on the new Timber Ninja Kunai Hybrid Stand and wonders if the "Hybrid Stand" is an emerging niche. Jacob also shares his experience hunting "ground zero" (a county with the highest rate of EHD), in a recent hunt over the weekend. Clue: it wasn't good. In fact, he could have thrown a dart and hit a better part of the state to hunt...but failed to do his research. And, lastly he shares what rut stage we are exiting and moving into according the 13 stages as outlined by the Drury's. Thanks for listening. Enjoy!

Just because an ad shows a hunter with an e-bike, or is promoted by a hunter, doesn't mean that e-bike is going to be a good spend of your money or perform the way you want it to in a particular situation. In today's episode, Jacob continues the examination of the brands and models of the top hunting e-bikes. The parameters are mid-drive bikes with 1000w motors, 20Ah batteries, with an emphasis on multiple gear options and built in class adjustment modes (Class 1, Class 2, Class 3). The brands include Velowave, BikTrix, Rambo, BackCou, Quiet Cat, and Face Off. The bikes that are outlined here are at the top of the food chain. Based on their specs, they are ideal for using in hill country and on flat terrain. Be sure to head to the Hunt Detail YouTube channel for a full video and a cheat sheet on the Hunt Detail Instagram page.Thanks for listening.

There are likely hunting situations that you have been in either in state or out of state when an e-bike would have helped you make better use of your time. Maybe there was a well used trail, a fire road, or an old logging trail. And, an e-bike could get you away from some of the nearby hunting pressure. In today's episode, Jacob is going to begin the breakdown of the e-bike category. There is a lot of options and it can be a bit overwhelming. Not all e-bikes are the same and there are some important considerations to evaluate before you jump in. Hub drive vs. Mid drive, 750w motor vs. 1000w motor, newton meters of torque, weight of the frame, single speed vs. multi-speed, and is it a Class 1, 2, or 3? Lots to discern. Thanks for listening.

Description
The purpose of a single bevel blade on a broadhead is to twist as it penetrates as opposed to creating a flat cut plane like a double bevel blade does. As a result, you have a wound channel that doesn't close or re-seal easily, which hopefully translates into better blood trails and better recoveries. In today's episode, Jacob share the results of his evaluation of 2 different single bevel broadheads. Jacob shot the Iron Will 125 and the Toulou 125 through ballistic gel and each through a mature whitetail shoulder blade. He examined the twist rate of each broadhead and penetration. The results of  the evaluation were compelling and worth sharing. Thanks for listening!

What does it mean when someone hunts the "Red Moon"? Are they referring to the lunar eclipse phenomenon? Or is it something else? What does it mean when they say "overhead" or "underfoot"? Does that have anything to do with moon phase? In today's episode, Jacob is going to break down what is the red moon as it relates to whitetail deer hunting. And, he is going to help you understand the concepts of "overhead" and "underfoot". There are studies that suggest that the moon has no impact on deer movement. But, what does your hunt experience tell you? Thanks for listening!

Image stabilizing binoculars have become more prominent in the hunting space as a result of the Sig Sauer Zulu 6 line of binos entrance into the market a few years ago. In today's episode, Jacob shares the results of his evaluation of the Sig Sauer Zulu 6 image stabilizing binoculars as compared to the Canon IS3 image stabilizing binoculars. Is there value in a non hunting brand like the Canon IS3? How do these 2 models compare beyond the price tag? How do the stabilization features compare? Waterproofing? Weight? Field of view? Eye relief? Exit pupil? Battery life? Warranty? And, of course, image quality? Jacob will share his thoughts on these features and more on today's episode. Thanks for listening!

Welcome to November! In today's episode, Jacob shares the mistakes he made on a buck that he shot last week in a tight rut funnel and his recovery efforts. As bowhunters, a bad shot does happen from time to time and sometimes we simply can't avoid it because of extenuating circumstances. But, it's critical that we "rewind the tape" and examine what we could have done differently to reduce the possibility of a wounded animal. Jacob also shares his experience in hiring a thermal drone to help him find the buck. Thank you for listening and enjoy!

HERE. WE. GO. The pre-rut is waning and the rut is nearly upon us...depending on where you live regionally. So, how will stay sane? Today, Jacob goes through a checklist of his own to help him stay sane as we go into the most wonderful time of the year. It can be a grind...but on the other side...it is usually worth it. Problems can arise when we scroll social media and see others having success and wonder...why can't that be me? Remember, comparison is the thief of joy. Thanks for listening and supporting Hunt Detail. Enjoy the episode!
