Episode 91 What Would You Change About Hunting?

Got Game University Podcast ·

2026/02/17

Back from a short break, Mike and Ryan dive into a deceptively simple question: If you had the power to change one thing about hunting, what would it be? Ryan explores the tension around resident opportunity and out-of-state pressure in Idaho—and what it really means to choose a lifestyle built around hunting. Mike imagines a radical (and slightly ridiculous) shift in predator behavior that would transform spring bear season forever. Underneath the humor is a deeper conversation about sacrifi...

In this episode of Just the Tip Tuesday, Mike Edgehouse (Cutrite) and Ryan Smith (GameTech) ditch the overthinking and hit record to talk about the best $100 hunting investments—before, during, and after the kill. From trekking poles (“sissy sticks”) and meat grinders to sausage stuffers and pack add-ons, the guys break down what gear actually earns its keep when budgets are tight.

2026/01/20

In this episode of Just the Tip Tuesday, Mike and Ryan flip the script on the usual “do more, grind harder” hunting advice. Instead of talking about what makes you a better hunter, they dive into what they’ve stopped doing—and how those changes made the biggest difference. Mike opens up about stepping away from regular alcohol consumption and the unexpected ripple effects it had on his health, family life, and time in the field. Ryan shares how letting go of social media pressure and the “nee...

Mike and Ryan are back with another Just the Tip Tuesday, breaking down what they actually mean by hunting intentions—not resolutions, not fantasies, but realistic plans built around life, work, and time in the mountains. From horse-packed deer hunts and first-year bear bait plans to slowing down in new elk units and embracing October rifle seasons, this episode is about playing the long game. Toss in a little truck ranting, marketplace ethics, and an emergency elk-neck Instapot recipe, and y...

2025/11/11

In this episode of the Game Tech University “Just the Tip Tuesday” podcast, Ryan Smith sits down with Game Tech co-founder Tayler Tibbitts to break down an elk hunt that had just about everything: big summer expectations, painful misses, dad duty on the mountain, and a last-day bull that finally came together in the snow and fog. Tayler shares how a carefully scouted “plan A” fell apart when rifle season hit and the elk weren’t where he’d found them all summer. He talks through: Missing the s...

2025/11/04

On this Just the Tip Tuesday, Mike and co-host Ryan Smith welcome Tayler Tibbets for a no-BS breakdown of what an elk really yields and why so many hunters think they got shorted. We dig into realistic hind/front quarter weights, how aging changes flavor and reduces weight, the 30% trim + rind loss many folks forget, and when it makes sense to grind early vs. age big cuts. We also hit rib meat (love it or leave it), cold-room setups (temp & humidity matter), and a couple spicy butcher sto...
