• The Future of Euro Mounts w/ Keegan Bruner | Ep 6

  Rack Hub just dropped one of the slickest euro mount systems I’ve ever laid eyes on — and it’s built to handle everything from your first whitetail to a moose that barely fits through the door. I sat down with Keegan Bruner to talk about the brand-new RHE mount, why it’s “wife-approved,” and how it solves the headaches we’ve all dealt with when trying to get a trophy on the wall.We dig into the design secrets that make this mount bulletproof, the challenges of hanging giant racks without wrecking your wall, and a few wild hunting stories along the way. From knocking down bulls to chasing big whitetails, this one’s a mix of gear talk, big game dreams, and a couple laughs you don’t want to miss.If you’ve got a euro mount collecting dust or a head in the freezer waiting on taxidermy, this episode will get you fired up to get it on the wall fast — and make it look damn good doing it.

• Shot At Over an Elk w/ Stieg Phillips | Ep 3

  Stieg Phillips is the man behind the famous Muley Maniacs brand and is on the podcast today sharing one of the wildest hunting stories you’ll ever hear. Stieg opens up about his 2023 Nevada elk hunt — a dream tag he waited nine years to draw — that took an unbelievable turn when a landowner and his friends allegedly started shooting in Stieg’s direction to prevent him from harvesting a giant 380-class bull on public land. From dealing with cross-state law enforcement to the frustration of failed hunter harassment charges, Stieg gives a raw, firsthand account of what happened that night and how it’s shaped his perspective on hunting, landowner conflicts, and perseverance in the field.You’ll also hear about:• The challenges of hunting giant bulls that cross public-private boundaries.• The legal and ethical battles hunters face in high-stakes units.• Why Canady Tripods and Muley Maniacs are raising the bar for serious glassers.• How Stieg balances content creation, entrepreneurship, and hunting big mule deer.• Lessons learned from a near-deadly confrontation that could happen to any public land hunter.If you’ve ever hunted close to private land or wondered how to handle a tough landowner situation, this is a story you don’t want to miss. Listen now, subscribe to Drawn West, and share this episode with your hunting crew — because these are the conversations every public land hunter needs to hear.Connect with Brian Krebshttps://linktr.ee/getdrawnwestHave Questions or Comments?
