Rob Gearing is the founder of Spartan Precision Equipment which makes hands down the best bi-pod on the market, The Javelin. As a hunter and outdoorsman, Rob's needs were not being met by the bi-pods on the market, so he did what all great entrepreneurs do, he created a new product that met his needs and filled a hole in the marketplace. In this episode, Ryan and Rob talk a bit about product innovation but mostly discuss all the wild places hunting can take you and contrasting views between the hunting and non-hunting world. Rob and Ryan have both been all over the world hunting and traveling and talk through the community that is built on a hunting trip, especially ones that have a little bit of torture endured by the hunting party.

In this episode, Ryan Efurd sits down with his friend, business partner, and co-founder of CANIS, award winning, Swiss designer, Marcel Geser. Geser, who has been a tailor since he was a teenager, talks about his background as an outdoor athlete and designer of some of the most innovative mountaineering apparel in the world. Winner of over 25 ISPO awards, Marcel Geser is one of the most renowned designers in the mountaineering, and now with CANIS, hunting spaces in the world. Ryan and Marcel talk about the inspiration for CANIS, the process of starting from prototype through testing and final product, and the reasons why they chose the fabrics and the benefits for our customers.

In this episode, Ryan sits down with hunter, world-traveler, and Manager of Marketing and PR for Huntin' Fool magazine Jessica Byers. Jessica grew up in Temple, TX as one of 3 girls who all loved the outdoors and hunting with their Dad. Hunting and fishing has always been a constant in her life and not long after graduating from Texas A&M (we won't hold it against her) she made it a career by traveling the world in pursuit of epic hunts and writing about it all. She now resides in Utah, where Huntin' Fool HQ is, and continues to hunt a variety of species all over the country. Ryan and Jessica discuss how hunting has impacted their lives and lessons learned while preparing for and participating in rigorous hunts.
