PARTNERSHIPS, SPONSORS & AFFILIATES
I've been blessed to work with some amazing individuals and companies throughout my career. I want to highlight some of the folks and brands I have been partnering with, recently. Below you will find companies and people that I highly endorse and I hope you will visit their websites and socials, to learn more about them, and give them some support!
Sharing The Land
As you may know, I co-own the company, Map My Ranch, where we specialize in creating the highest quality, printed maps for land users of all types. I spoke with Doug Duren, the creator of the "Sharing The Land" initiative, and after learning more about the project, Map My Ranch decided to become a sponsor, creating maps for the Land Owners that signed up through the program. We will announce more about the project and our involvement in future posts, podcasts and videos! But for now, please take a look below, to learn more!
Sharing the Land is a conservation cooperators network connecting landowners with hunters and private land access seekers. Building on the concept of the Riley Game Cooperative, STL is reinvigorating the Leopold Land Ethic through trade-based, bartering partnerships that develop relationships and exchanges access for work or other contributions to conservation.

Seekins Precision
I had the distinct pleasure of having former Green Beret, Matty Nelson, from Seekins Precision & Hat CreekTraining, on the Son of a Blitch Podcast. Soon after, he helped me pick out a Seekins Precision Havak Element rifle chambered in 300 PRC, which I will be using for the entirety of the 2024-2025 season. They make some of the best rifles in the industry and I have used their scope rings for many years with outstanding results. Give them a call and ask for Matty! ~GB

onX Hunt
I've always been a massive fans of onX Maps and their incredible apps! Our team at Map My Ranch has used onX Hunt for a long time now, and we often train our customers on how to use it, to give us the location of the custom points they want us to label and put on their printed maps.
Map My Ranch and onX Hunt already had some connections as we are both sponsors for Doug Duren's "Sharing The Land" project, and we've both worked with some of the same individuals and companies in the Outdoors Industry...it always felt like a matter of time before we would cross paths and see how our synergy might grow into a Partnership of some sort.
Well, that day is finally upon us! We had some amazing conversations with Jared Larsen, who is a Marketing Manager with onX, and their team has decided to offer some onX Hunt "Elite Memberships" for free to our clients for 3 months!
We'll be training our clients on how to use the app and the desktop versions, so they can hold the power of onX Hunt in their own hands, and customize whatever it is they want to have us design and print with our high end aerial imagery. Having a tool like onX is extremely valuable, for so many reasons.
We highly encourage you to check out the other onX Maps apps, aside from onx Hunt. They also have onX Offroad (Off-Road Map App - the most trusted off-roading and snowmobiling app to discover nearby trails, plan and track your trips, and get home safely.) and onX Backcountry (See why onX Backcountry is the ultimate GPS navigation app for your outdoor pursuits).
Thank you, onX Maps, for making such an amazing apps, and for helping to add another layer of benefits for our customers! I know they will all greatly benefit as a result!

Moultrie Mobile + Moultrie Products
I am now a proud member of the "Moultrie Mobile Field Team". I've been using their cameras on both my ranches for nearly 15 years and they have the most reliable cellular cameras I've ever used. Whether I'm using them for census counts to hand over to the Wildgame Biologists, trying to track movements of a massive buck, or just capturing some off the wall stuff (Wild Emus chasing turkeys, wild horses knocking down corn out of a feeder for their wild hog friends, neighbor's longhorns punches holes in my house, etc) or using them for security purposes, I know I can rely on getting the highest quality image, directly to my phone within seconds of the image being taken. Can't beat that! Make sure you check out their product line below:

MEATEATER - Pro Program Member

Hamskea Archery Solutions
The team at Hamskea Archery Solutions sent me their Everest rest (and a peep sight) to use on my "Journey Into Archery" series - featuring videos, articles and podcasts. Their rests were highly recommended from my friend and podcast guest, Dirk Durham, aka The Bugler.
"HAMSKEA Archery Solutions LLC is a company for archers by archers. It is owned and operated by Andrew Munsell and Shawn Greathouse. Each are passionate tournament archers and die hard bowhunters. They live and breathe the sport of archery. That passion is the foundation of HAMSKEA ARCHERY SOLUTIONS. In their constant drive to be better and more accurate archers themselves, they saw a need in the market for products they couldn’t find anywhere else. Due to this, they began to design, develop, and manufacture products that truly maximize accuracy.
All of the products that Andrew and Shawn create come directly from their own shooting experiences and needs. It is their mission to unleash the passion of archers and bowhunters everywhere. They do this because they love the sport, the people and the community that represent it. They hope their products help each of you find that same passion.
