Silencing & Modding Your Bowhunting Gear with a Green Beret (Wayward Ridge)

In this clip from The Archery Project, Jake Roberts, former Green Beret and founder of Wayward Ridge, dives deep into the art of gear modification — from silencing metal platforms and sticks to improving functionality in the field. Jake explains why no piece of gear is ever “perfect out of the box” — and how small tweaks like taping touchpoints, dampening noise, and optimizing weight can make a massive difference for bowhunters who demand precision and stealth. He also shares a glimpse into Wayward Ridge’s upcoming soft goods line, including a new bino harness designed from the ground up for mobile hunters. If you’re a gear tinkerer, saddle hunter, or just obsessed with making your setup quieter, lighter, and more efficient — this clip is for you. 🎧 Full Episode: Minimalist Saddle Hunting with Former Green Beret Jake Roberts (Wayward Ridge) 📍Available on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts 🔗 Connect with Wayward Ridge Website: https://waywardridge.com Instagram:   / waywardridge   🏹 Shop Extreme Outfitters for all of your archery & bowhunting needs: https://extremeoutfitters.com Quick reads, pro tips, and the latest episodes—delivered straight to your inbox every week. 👉 Sign up here: https://thearcheryproject.com/ ✅ Watch the video podcast here!    / @thearcheryproject   JOIN OUR COMMUNITY: ► Facebook: http://bit.ly/44UD7Vo ► Instagram: http://bit.ly/40Q2jLf
