Brady sits down with Danny Barreto of Airlock Industries to dig into what makes the Zero Gravity suppressors such a standout for hunters—especially when ounces, durability, and real-world performance all matter. Plus, the backstory on how he helped Brady rethink using a suppressor for hunting. They break down Airlock’s engineering-first design philosophy—more time spent in development and testing, less time chasing flashy marketing hype—and what that means for backcountry hunters. From rifle setup and hearing protection to practical field considerations, this episode covers how to think about suppression as part of a complete hunting system. And Brady gets to the big question: why does Airlock seem to be everywhere so fast? If you’ve been curious about going suppressed for hunting (or you already do and want to nerd out on the why), this one’s for you. Learn more about GOHUNT. Follow Brady on Instagram.

Wildlife policy battles are heating up across the country. In this episode, the Big Hunt Guys sit down with Charles Whitwam of Howl For Wildlife to discuss their recent documentary "Killing Catalina" and the Catalina Island Conservancy's plan to eradicate all mule deer on the island in the name of habitat restoration, reduce wildfire risk, and to benefit other wildlife species due to an "overpopulation" of deer. Later the guys talk with Dane Gates of CRWM about Colorado legislation that threatens trapping, fur markets, and rodent control tools. Dan also offers a current update on the reintroduction of wolves in Colorado. We explore how these efforts gained traction, why they matter beyond state lines, and how hunters can engage before ballot initiatives permanently reshape conservation. Learn more about GOHUNT.

Today’s episode is a special one. I’m sitting down with the man who first put a rifle in my hands, taught me patience in the field, discipline at the reloading bench, and—most importantly—what it truly means to respect the animal, the hunt, and the process. My dad, Steve Miller, is the reason I fell in love with hunting in the first place. We talk about where it all began for him, the hunts that shaped who he is, the lessons learned the hard way, and the one hunt that still stands above the rest after all these years. This episode is about time spent in the outdoors, traditions passed down, and the kind of knowledge that can only come from a lifetime of experience. And there’s no one I’d rather share that story with than my dad. Learn more about GOHUNT. Follow Brady on Instagram.

Mule deer hunting isn’t supposed to be easy—and most of the time, it isn’t even fun. In this first episode of the Miller Tines podcast, Brady Miller breaks down the mindset and mental toughness it takes to hunt mule deer (or really any animal for that matter). From endless hours behind the glass to failed stalks, empty basins, and physical exhaustion, mule deer hunting has a way of testing patience, discipline, and mental toughness more than any other western hunt. This episode isn’t about tactics or shortcuts. It’s an honest conversation about learning to enjoy the process, embracing boredom, staying disciplined when the hunt gives you nothing back, and why mental toughness matters more than gear, tags, or talent.
