For Dylan Eyers, hunting has always been about two things: creating a community around food and connecting with nature. It’s a philosophy he picked up from a long line of hunters, and it’s one that he’s proud to pass on to new generations. With a growing interest in learning to hunt from folks from non-traditional hunting communities, there is a gap in mentorship and support for this growing community. Dylan established EatWild in 2011 to support non-traditional hunters to find their way to becoming ethical, safe and successful hunters.

If you haven't met Matt, yet, allow me to introduce you to Dr. Matt Ward, a dedicated chiropractor and kinesiologist. With a firm commitment to practicing what he preaches, Matt's journey is marked by genuine experiences. Having observed clinicians who lack hands-on patient care and inexperienced coaches offering advice, he's made it his mission to bridge the gap between theory and reality. Matt's valuable insights on injury prevention in mountain hunting and training recovery are rooted in 15+ years of personal experience and a blend of evidence-based research. As a chiropractor, hunting guide at Arcadia Outfitters, and the host of the Hard Yards Podcast, Matt's extensive background in sports, including Crossfit, downhill mountain biking, and off-road triathlons, alongside a wealth of educational achievements, including his time at the University of Western States and UBC, sets him apart.

Ben Storak grew up hunting as a kid, but road hunting. He knew next to nothing about the "proper" methods of hunting...wind, stalking in, etc. He started in the guide outfitting industry when he was 15 years old and has been guiding ever since. Now going on 18 years in the industry, Ben has owned his own Outfitting Concession for almost 6 years now, called Arcadia Outfitting Ltd. This has been his dream since he was young, but as luck would have it, Ben and his crew have been hit with an onslaught of challenges since starting the outfit the recent couple of years of global disaster haven't helped much, but thankfully, as the old Cowboy saying goes, "God hates a coward" and Ben certainly wasn't raised a quitter so they are trekking onwards and upwards.
