Wayne treated me like a VIP a few years ago at the Bow Rack and I am nothing more than a very common man. He exudes class, wisdom, and humility.

[@chenoabryan8458]

The first time we walked into The Bow Rack in 2019 I was new to archery and Wayne helped me that day. I was given so much confidence and to this day( and they gave my kids a trad bow that they shoot today). I still hear Wayne’s gentle voice silently upon each stance position, hand position, the statue speech. I new Zero about hunting being an EAST coast and a Florida surfer. Well, I gave it my ALL to learning a small zone on the Oregon coast and harvested my first black tail fork deer on Thanksgiving 2022. I dropped to my knees in front of a huge hemlock that I caught a huge mature buck on camera ( knowing I could wait but thought, 1st come 1st serve) and Thanked God, the bow rack and my family for the confidence for the double lung shot. I feel the bow rack is like the MAFIA OF ARCHERY … I’m in debt for the knowledge and kindness.

[@dustinsmith4068]

@@chenoabryan8458 That is a wonderful story.

[@chuckallen893]

Me and my family stopped by Corban university So we stopped by the bowrack Wayne is awesome he was busy but had time to take a picture and talk he truly the herd bull thanks Wayne

[@donotgoquietlypodcast]

I love Wayne man. So awesome to see a guy be open about his faith in Jesus. I’m 54 years old and just getting into bow hunting. My Dad did not hunt and I went the jock route then coached football for 30 years. Trying to learn a new passion in my 2nd lifetime. What an honor to be around a man like that.

[@BigRick9191]

Wayne is about as good of a human as they come. I went into The Bow Rack years ago to purchase my first bow thinking I’d be the next Cam Hanes. Turns out you actually have to practice to take down the big bulls, but maybe one day. I remember the shop was closing up, and Wayne let me stay late while he was closing up so I could use the range. I remember hearing rustling out back of the shop, and I alerted Wayne. I ran out to the back, fully expecting to yell and scream at the person rifling through his trash for bottles and cans. I was ready for the encounter and to give them a piece of my mind. How dare they sort the trash at The Bow Rack! Wayne simply asked them to not leave a mess, reached into his wallet and gave the person $20 and blessed them. I was blown away by his generosity and compassion in that moment, and hearing his testimony it’s easy to see why he reacted the way he did. We could all stand to be a little more like Wayne, the world is a better place because of him. Thank you for this episode, loved every minute of it!

[@mustlearnmore4884]

Two hours and forty minutes? I'm looking forward to this... From each of Wayne's appearances in Lift, Run, Shoot and what I've now seen of his posts on IG, he strikes me as an incredible man. He's not a big celebrity, he's not changing the world through politics, but he IS making a positive impact on his community. It's great to finally watch him in a much longer format on the podcast, and I look forward to seeing more of him in upcoming episodes of LRS 🙏🏽🔥💪🏽🔨🔨 UPDATE: After finishing the episode, I can confidently say this was my favourite thus far. Wayne is truly salt of the earth, and I could have listened to these two speak for many hours more. Hopefully we'll get to see these two gentleman warriors on a hunt together soon, documented on video for the rest of us to appreciate. In the meantime, if I may be so bold as to suggest a future guest for the podcast and Lift, Run, Shoot... I'd love to see Zuby on the show. He's such a positive voice in the world and one of the few things that brings me back to Twitter on occasion (that platform seems to bring out the worst in humanity, but his posts are a very welcome exception). You would have so much to discuss, be it politics, fitness, faith, culture. And I think he would be another person Cam could convert to the hunting lifestyle. Until then, God bless you all, and thank you once again for all you do 🏹🙏🏽🔥💪🏽🔨🔨

[@lorihamrick9349]

Wayne has some great hunting stories but the best part of this podcast is when he is speaking about our Lord. Another great podcast.

[@brpnw4r94]

Gonna put the headphones on, have some coffee, and smoke some salmon while enjoying the convo between these two. Brings back memories of my early day struggles of being a noob bowhunter...and still learning. Cheers, fellas.

[@mallardcreekoutdoors2857]

One of my goals is to be talked about and remembered like Roy. I will never be as good of a man as Roy but I will never stop trying. Rest In Peace Roy. Keep hammering Cam.

[@joiethomson3712]

Great Episode. Thankful for Wayne's honesty about his faith.

[@ddub6135]

I was thinking the same thing.. He’s honest about Believing in Jesus…. Awesome…

[@mannys5694]

The best podcast by far so far. No disrespect to the celebs but man that was great. Nice job Cam

[@christopherwoods7435]

To see Cams face change at the mention of Roy was sobering, Wayne is a special human. God bless him. I wish we could bow hunt in the U.K.

[@jesseroberts5681]

Wayne is the Grand Master of Archery, patient and kind, willing to teach. Truly one of a kind!

[@chancecombs9076]

Best pod cast ever. America's bad ass hunter, along with America's greatest bowshop and shooter and trainer.

[@user-cl7jw7td5q]

Enjoyed the pod cast! Thanks Jesus is King

[@garrettreid9229]

wayne endicott is one of the greatest humans ive heard in a long time, we need more guys like him on podcast talking about jesus in the way he does. and about a passion for hunting, truly grateful for this episode, thank you cam and wayne

[@highcountryadventures9606]

Couldn't have said it better myself. Never knew much about him other than he was the owner of the bowrack . After I heard him pray on the lift run shoot with Courtney Dewaulter I had to come hear the interview

[@jlshetler1]

Arrows in the Quiver, Don't deliver !!!

[@kurtlawson6995]

one of the best guests you have had on here so far Cam the stories Wayne told and just both of you the passion for this sport is awesome im 58 years young goin on 21 but yes i am so addicted to bow huntin it sometimes drives my wife crazy thanks againfor such a great series KEEP HAMMERIN

[@ddub6135]

Thank you Cameron for having Wayne on . He is really inspiring. God Bless both of y'all ..

[@nolanfridley-ij3ef]

Love this! Great to hear his passion for Jesus and bow hunting. Leaving a great legacy.

[@theoregonhistoryhunters2209]

Thank you legends! Thanks for paying archery forward for all, long live archery!!!

[@TheHungarianchick]

Wayne seems like a real class act. A real patriot.

[@adamzetek785]

One of the top podcasts of all time of all podcasts.

[@elkhunter8231]

I took a road trip down to the Bow Rack from Washington State a couple years ago. Had my bow set up, arrows made. Great group of people. I can’t wait to go back again.

[@wayoutwestadventures4488]

Love the story of Christ and Christianity. I love how he talked about how Roy loved hunting so much but he knew down dead it was a sin to put hunting ahead of god. This last season “2022” I really left this same way. “Put god first in everything you do!!” Thank you Cam and Wayne!

[@michaelkowalski5760]

Best show I have listened to. Would love to see a collection of your, Waynes and other friends story about Roy. He is just a gentle giant. Should be your next book.

[@stevemineer1516]

Wayne set up my bow, gave me tips as he tuned it up, and he never ever hurried the process. Total VIP status and true servant leader.

[@joshluttrell6529]

I was truly moved by Wayne's testimony. What a wonderful person to share with people. Thank you

[@garyo4456]

Send your Faith like your Arrow Brother….right to their hearts!

[@basssix1]

It was such a treat to get to listen in on this conversation between two great friends

[@chancecombs9076]

Love the stories about Roy.

[@kwright7066]

God bless Wayne Endicott! Awesome conversation.

[@mikeliggett1599]

This is my favorite episode

[@CascadePacificNW]

The painted arrows is an awesome story!

[@garyo4456]

Such honestly great customer service that you just won’t want to spend money with anyone else! Small store. Great stuff “everywhere” you look and turn…and when you’re spinning there in awe, their customer service is right on hand to help….and more importantly help you feel welcome and appreciated!!

[@michaelcafferty1547]

Yes a true borne again believer redeemed by the blood of Jesus Christ! Suck good conversation as well as the story's! So good 2 genuine people speaking REAL life. Thankyou!

[@scottflavin4693]

Such a genuine man so inspirational I love his stories with cheer camp with him anytime awesome podcast

[@damianniquette5980]

Best podcast yet! Wayne is standard of what a human should be. I especially like the story’s about the old days and about Roy! “Chipmunk with a knife”. Can’t wait to buy that t-shirt. Keep hammering 💪

[@wesleykobelka2792]

I want to take my first vacation to the Bow Rack! Been following Cam and the Bow Rack for a while now and it just inspires me more!

[@mattpeters6224]

Hands down favorite episode. Wayne is beyond Herd Bull. I can’t put into words the love that emanates from his spirit. ❤❤❤❤

[@W1ldRyan]

This is a long overdue one! My native Oregonian's that I wish to meet someday!

[@gilespratchler8531]

Wayne’s the rock I think of when I question my own sanity as a Christian.

[@KevOutdoors]

Of all the people that I’ve seen you talk to, I’d like to sit down and talk with this guy more than any of the others! I can connect with him! Excellent podcast!

[@SabrinaAngel]

“A house divided will not stand” 👏🙌 Grateful for Wayne to share his faith! That IS the difference. ❤

[@headlessflyfisherman6346]

EXCELLENT message of passion for God and the word that you're spreading through your bow hunting careers! God bless you and your family's!

[@micahtetreault855]

No wonder you hear how everyone loves Wayne, what an amazing example of a man.

[@Jrjj42]

As I listen to this podcast, the idiom a man’s man comes to mind. Both of these guys are men’s men.

[@smicksmookety]

I love Wayne.

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Wayne is an archery legend!!

[@spearstrengthwellness]

This one was special! Listening to Wayne, I felt like I was listening to my granddaddy telling stories about his life and it brought back some pretty sweet memories for me. Thank you!

[@Bowhunter66]

Just listened to the entire podcast, couldn't pull away. Such great stories and reflection on a great friendship. I'm be back in Oregon the last week of April and will be stopping by the BowRack to pick up some swag. See Ya Soon!

[@Willowbilly]

This man is such an inspiration

[@shadowb84]

Out of all the guests you've had on so far wyane has been the coolest hopefully he comes back on the podcast

[@rogertorgersen9995]

First episode I ever listened to was with Amala Ekpunobi. Wanted to see this conversation after the way that he spoke to her in such a genuine way.

[@adamgrinstead9788]

They've all been great. This was next level though. Thanks for making this happen. Wayne is truly the herd bull.

[@KristinaPowell-lg1qc]

Such a great podcast! Wayne’s testimony and honesty about his faith is so great and moving to hear. He helped set me up with my first bow he’s such a great guy.

[@timcondra3123]

This is awesome. Wayne seems like such a great guy!

[@Singlespokensentence]

Wayne that was great hearing you talk about your father thinking you're crazy for getting into bow hunting and hunting far out in the wilderness. I ran into the same thing with my dad. Awesome interview

[@aarongoeppner413]

I’m gonna go TAN!!! Now that was funny! Half way through the podcast, making my day!

[@mrgboxx]

the others were okay, but this one is great. if Cam can get his bowhunting buddies to come tell stories this podcast will be epic.

[@Mr.PotatoAWESOMEFitnessTips]

This episode opened up right next to the Chris Williamson's one, I was getting some shit done around the house and was pulled in immediately- incredible stand up dude, loved to listen his perspective, bring him back for more Cam.

[@cruzhitt1818]

Have been waiting on this… Wayne seems like such a genuine, Godly man. Means a lot.

[@jordanburnette2530]

This is absolutely the best listen I have even heard. Being from the same area as cam and Wayne, it really puts into perspective just how hard these successful men pushed to get where they are.

[@simplelivingmontana]

Glad you got Wayne on. What a great guy. Can’t wait until he is on again!

[@chenoabryan8458]

Now I know about THE legend ROY

[@michealfarris1498]

One of my bucket list things is to come up there from Texas and run the mountain and go to the bow rack. Wayne is a class act human being. Gotta get Nate and my pal Brian Stephens on here!

[@Marine1975]

Best interview ever! Amen Wayne, thank you! 🙏

[@collinremilong-qb1km]

What a wise and kind man, as this podcast was playing I could just imagine myself sitting at a fire and listening to these stories. I hope that one day Wayne and my paths may cross, if I ever go to Oregon I am defiantly gonna make a stop at the Bow Rack.

[@travusburch4027]

Thank you for these podcasts. I pray that these awesome podcasts will have an impact on the country

[@TPO43]

Had no idea who this guy was till this series started, but I was hoping he’d come on the show! Awesome stuff

[@garyo4456]

First time at the Bowrack I bought several items on Waynes recommendations…but my big $$$’s were because of Lisa!! Saleswoman extraordinaire!!

[@garyo4456]

I bought “Rogan/Haines 2024” at The Bowrack! Proud to drive around with it!! We could sure use a guy like Wayne in their Cabinet! 👍😜👍

[@bloodbath3585]

Hoping to get up to the Bow Rack next month to get set up from the Wizard Wayne himself. Well worth the 17 hour drive from western Colorado. Thoroughly enjoyed this episode and the stories boys. Cant wait for Wayne part 2.

[@kalebvoigt6968]

Wayne brought up strawberry mountain wilderness I’m listening to this while glassing strawberry mountain from the living room
