EP 231 – From Forums to Firearms – A Conversation with Ryan Avery of Rokslide & Shoot2Hunt
Manage episode 480149143 series 2833195
In this episode, I sit down with Ryan Avery — founder of Rokslide and Shoot2Hunt — for a candid conversation about the evolution of hunting media, rifle culture, and how gear reviews have changed over the past decade. Ryan shares his journey from building one of the most trusted backcountry hunting forums on the internet to launching Shoot2Hunt, a platform built to cut through marketing noise and focus on real-world rifle performance.
We dig into the rise of gear-centric hunting content, the pitfalls of influencer hype, and why community trust still matters. If you’re into precision shooting, backcountry gear, or just want to hear how one hunter built two of the most respected platforms in the space — this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
