Ep. 166 | Michael Braden

Senior Known Pro Michael Braden talks about winning the 2026 Hoyt/Easton Pro/Am in Foley, Ala., which was his first win in that division since his "retirement" in 2023. Michael talks about how hard he's worked at being a pro archer since he began in 1996, and how he lost the desire to do that work by the end of 2022, which led to his one-year hiatus. With the advent of the Senior Known Pro class in 2023, Michael felt the fire to come back to the game. He also talks about coaching, his signature index-finger release and how much he loves aiming drills!

Legendary archery coach Kim Hyung Tak visited the CAM podcast studio to talk about his lifetime in archery. He offers insight into what makes the Koreans such a dominant force in archery, and how the country has a system that's designed to produce top-tier competitors.

Ep 164 | Kyle Douglas

Coming into 2026, Kyle Douglas had won most tournaments in archery as an Open Pro, including NFAA Indoor Nationals and The Vegas Shoot. But he'd never won the Lancaster Archery Classic, despite several runs in the finals. At the 2026 Classic, Douglas finally got his first win there. We talked to him about how the finals went down, what it meant to him to get that win and what's left for him to fill his plate of accomplishments. He also talked about how the special $20,000 prize for a perfect 660 at the Classic affected his qualification round.
