Joe Rogan Calls Archer John Dudley "Phenomenal" 

I picked up my first compound bow just a year ago - a 400 dollar PSE starter bow. I found John through Joe Rogan, as so many others, and I went through his beginners classes youtube videos, over and over and over. He taught me how to adjust my draw length, draw weight and scope. Today, I confidently land 90 % of all arrows within a 10 inch diameter, at 30+ yards, with just basic beginners equipment at hand. I never had a coach. I never went to a club. I never had any help outside of John Dudley. I hope he knows how much he helps people all around the world. Much much appreciated🙏 /from Sweden

I'm not the best, but I remember my dad watching me shoot and hit targets at distance with my recurve and he said, "Well, at least I know you won't go hungry." It is a good feeling.

"I'm not gonna shoot a tournament instead of chase elk." That's because you're the real deal my dude.

Shop owner pulled a miyagi on him. Gotta go to my local pro shop and ask if they need a free fletcher :D

Bone chilling..John Dudley single handedly change my life and helped me get sober all from archery and his videos! Thankyou john

I remember when I was young they taught archery in junior high with a fiberglass long bow with a plastic handle. That was 58 years ago. I got pretty good with it and dad bought me my first and only recurve Fred Bear bow, 32 lb draw weight. I must have shot a hundred arrows a day. One day dad brought home a bow for him. It was a 48 lb draw weight Fred Bear recurve. He would come home from work and shoot 1 arrow, then put his bow up. Every day he did the same thing. One day I asked him why he only shot 1 arrow. He told me you only get one shot, it has to be right. We hunted with bows before it got popular in the mid 80’s. Loved hunting with my dad. I know how this guy feels!

I have a Mathews Conquest signed by John from years ago when we visited the Mathews plant. He was my favorite archer.

Dudley has taught me so much! very glad he gives so much free info!

Dudley is a great seller. You don't even notice the ads when watching his content. Amazing in my point of view. In addition, he managed to resell the Carter Evolution release as a new release by cutting of the third finger. Brilliant! That's innovation at it's best. He is a true selling legend.

I’ve been shooting a bow for little over ten years and I have learned more from him in this past 2 years from listening to him, than I have in the entirety of my archery lifestyle. Thank you John Dudley! 🤘🏼 Nock On

John Dudley is an icon in archery. There is no one that shows more, in detail, step by step, on how to become a better archer.

Dudley is amazing. And to think he teaches so much for free on RU-vid and other social platforms. Great dude, hope to meet him someday and just shake his hand.

Great video. I am trying to learn to shoot a bow and don’t know where I would be without Dudley’s willingness to share information and educate newbies like myself.

I had no one to ask when i started but i learned the most of it from Mr Dudley´s videos

To echo's Rogan's sentiment in this video, Dudley is undoubtedly the most influential figure in modern archery. Fundamentals and tactics used to be debated or kept secret. Dudley has put his experience out there for the world to learn from and it' had the direct effect of doubling and even tripling the effective range of the average archer who puts these teachings to work.

First you rock, then you rock hard, then you rock on. And on. That’s John Dudley. A man of complex simplicity. Rock on, brother, rock on. 🤘

Man a love America. Love from Scotland

I dig it when people figure things out 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼

Key word.."what im suppose to do n teach it"..well..it really means alot to me..thanks..

Awesome video, I do credit John Dudley and his videos for being a large factor in my becoming a better archer and bowhunter. I also switched to back tension shooting while hunting, and have never been soo accurate as I have this season. I have been bowhunting for about 10 years

I have learnt so much from Mr Dudley and his RU-vid channel. I now shoot with a silverback release. Just wish I lived in the States and not Australia some times. Would love to meet the man, so much respect for him for what he is and has done for the community.

I watched a lot of John's videos and him talking about using a handheld release gave me the confidence to try it. I shoot a three finger release and killed my biggest buck ever about a month ago. Really made me a more accurate shooter

Iowa boy my self, great video. He has a tru calling and inspires the people that are willing to learn Thanks

Love johns videos, got me from 0 experience on a bow and now 8 months later I’m getting ready for my first hunt on the west coast!

Absolutely awesome documentary. I am new to Bow hunting. Loving and learning so much. I can't wait for the rain to stop to do more practice.

My guy was always Tred Barta. I just knew he was going to die hunting then he had that spinal stroke. Sad. He's an amazing archer.

Watching Johns videos has given me a passion for a new hobby and a way to better connect with my sons

John dudley is the man. I love his story. And his dedication to archery and bowhunting. He'll always be a legend to me.

I have learn so much from watching his videos. Thank you John Dudley

Learned everything from Duds podcasts and videos!!

Thanks JD, for sharing your knowledge. an instruction on the proper way of Shooting a compound bow! That's also all the other fine info on arrows an so forth with the equipment that go's with it. Rock On! GOD Bless you an familia.

Good stuff right there, thanks!

This video was very inspiring! I just started bow hunting and have been watching all the School of Nock videos. Thank you for all the great information!

Learned almost everything I know from watching John's RU-vid videos

It appears that he is as revered in archery world as Jerry Miculek is in the shooting one. Awesome people, both of them.

Absolutely amazing archer! I love watching and learning from John's videos being fairly recently reintroduced to bow shooting.

Cant watch this enough. Gotta love john.

Thanks to Johns online course and videos, I started using one of his infamous words “critical” in my vocabulary. That single word changed everything about every shot I’ve taken since then. So many things can benefit from just changing your mind set to critical thinking. An amazing teacher and so grateful for him generously putting what he’s learned, out here for us and our future generations.- Nock🤘🏼On!

It's videos like these is why I don't bother anymore watching broadcast TV (except for NFL/NBA and Naked&Afraid) and what not I'll tell you what. Love the energy, innovation and culture of modern archery and hunting!!

Dudley saved me years off the learning curve.I will always be greatful.

Wow! Inspiration. Respect 🤘🏼. Excellent video, thank you 😊

Man this is one of the best videos I’ve seen. And master Dudley is a great man with so much knowledge that the man has no problem sharing #nockonnation 🤘🏻

Nothing but respect dude. Pursue the hunt over pursuit of a medal is the way to go.

Hill, Pearson, Bear, Adams, Dougherty, Foulkrod They are legendary...this man has a ways to go. Depending on what you consider modern archery, Chuck Adams inspired the explosion of bow hunters in my generation...back when you had the whole wma/nwr to yourself during archery season!

Only bow I ever shot was in the scouts 40 years ago and one day a Dudley/TAC video popped up as a RU-vid suggestion. It was the hight of the COVID lockdowns, I am self employed so my stress level already was off the charts and loosing gyms, bike parks, +trails were so full I could not ride local either... I needed to find something to do! Watched a few more of his videos and decided I wanted to try archery and specifically go to Total Archery Challenge so I order a new old stock Elite and some arrows... With his videos and lots of practice I did much better than I had imagined I could in such a short time....only lost/broke 3 arrows doing Leupold and YETI twice each the weekend I was at the PA TAC (one of the broken arrows was the Iron novelty shoot :) ) I now have 3 bows, and I will doing my 3rd TAC in August, joining our local archery club... went from using all of a 36" bail at 50 yards to hitting a paper plates at 100 yards from doing Dudley school of nock.

@joerogan thank you for this video I've seen it kept on thinking yea I need to watch it . It was worth it . As I am in the infancy of my archery journey it inspires me thanks !

when you work hard, you are rewarded. mr dudley is a rare breed, and that is to be commended, especially considering they times in which we live. joe rogan, the man is all over the map like a laser, and on point. good find, thank you.

Great video! John Dudley is a beast!

Phenomenal video. Thanks!

John is amazing. He’s changed my archery game so much. I absolutely love his videos.

DUDLEY IS THE REAL DEAL!! HUGE INSPIRATION!! I'M PASSING WHAT I LEARN FROM HIM TO MY 2 BOYS AND I BENEFIT A LOT FROM THIS ALSO!! BADASS VIDEO!!

this was very nice movie to see your history thru archery and bow hunting ,and your Nock on clips are awsome and im learning new things all the time ,i have been shooting different styles of bows for 20 years and still shoot traditionell bows but mostly my PSE shootdown thanks for your knowledge

His teachings are so superb I’ve been able to pass on his knowledge and watch it progress in people and more importantly, watch it work. On a side note, Rogan looks like a professional skull crusher. Great video.

I can say that during my learning process I have grapped a little from some key persons but most from John. My teacher in shot execution. Thank you!

Can’t wait to get out there this fall and put my passion to work in the bush

Amazing

Great minidoc guys. How about some soundtrack credits, the tunes sound rad!

I haven't gotten my 1st deer. I have been hunting for 15 years. I just love going through all the steps. And I decided that I just love shooting my bow. I watch all his stuff. He is by far the at the top of his game. His is a steward of his passion.

He's a living legend.

Dudley is the man ... Helped me so much with my shot and life 🤙 #nockon

He's amazing, this showcased it perfectly! He's my favorite dude!!! Born to teach!

helped me a ton !

Nice video, enjoyed the story. As more of a backyard and blue collar type of bowhunter, I enjoyed seeing the enthusiasm and passion. Great job capturing it for this video.

John is such a badass! Appreciate his guidance!

What a great video and life story!!!

Great story, real people are hard to find these days. Thanks for sharing

The Jedi himself, Cheer's to you mate!

Freaking Love This, Dud is a Stud.

Super impressed!!

4:29 Thanks for blowing my ear-drums out. Other than that great video keep it up.

I had never seen this channel....I haven't shot in years. But loved it when I did.

Hell yeah. Get it Dudley!!!!!

More please.

Not ashamed to throw my hat in with the many who like myself were inspired and given tutorials via Knock On TV and John Dudley! Dude is truly an Elite Bowman in fact he may be The Best Bowman ever!😉

Awesome video!

What an inspiring video! One archer to the next...nock onnn

Dudley is beyond phenomenal, an absolute LEGEND at his craft. Between him and Rogan , I think millions of poeple got into the lifestyle. Me included. God bless America.

Drops “professional “ competition shooting to peruse elk. True champion. Hat off to you sir

WOW! A Military Brat! I knew there was something special about you! I was a BRAT from '77-91" then I was a Marine from '91-97. Now I am building a national then international cooperative for total military food security via local veterans! Mob farming, transport, slaughterhouse then delivery - all by veterans and their families! Did I mention there is a hunting ground with deep discounts for active duty, veterans, and first season hunters? I will eventually be financially secure enough to help those who wish to enter hunting (archery) that don't have the means to do so! Each one teaches one!! At 6'6" and 350+, I have struggled to find equipment or even someone knowledgeable enough to teach someone of my size. I currently have Barry Hall of Newbury Archery in Goshen, CT. Problem is, I live just outside of Boston! And my hunting buddy currently resides between KS and MD! I'm all alone up here! But I put in the time and I'm learning on my own with input from your videos and mistakes I make. After hunting men (I was a HOG in the Corps after being a PIG at long distances) I wanted a challenge in hunting. No greater challenge than a front-row seat in hunting. Up close and personal. Thank you for all that you do! Semper Fi!

Jesus that meat looked good when he cut it on the table!

Iowa proud!

just awesome...

All I can say is wow!!!

As a new archer, I’ve learned invaluable info from this guy!

I actually went as cheap as possible and bought a sit drag to couple with my muddy harness and attached a couple camo poncho bags to it to carry my ropes and made my own DIY saddle that I am anxious to try out this bow season. I have already climbed some trees with it and I am very pleased with how easy and fast it is to get in the tree and how versatile it is. Also I carry three of the longer lone wolf sticks with the seat off my lone wolf assault attached to the top of my third stick as my platform. Its tons lighter and faster so I am hoping to have success with it this season. Wish me luck!!

Great video. Don Judly fo life!!! 😎😎

thank you , here from Denmark

Great video.

John D is legit..hands down best to me..learned so much from his videos

perfection is never complete

I’d love to see joe commentate archery competitions.

Great video/documentation - amazing story! Awesome!! *On a completely different note - What video editing software do you use!? I have many videos on RU-vid - but After I lost MS Movie Maker several years ago - I can not find a good user friendly editing software!? Anyone - help/suggest! Thanks in advance.

Fantastic video

Honestly such a bad ass story and upbringing, everyone has their own interpretations on his story and stuff but in my mind I see him as a child being taught at a young age to hunt with his family and as he gets older he takes on his apprenticeship with these other professional shooters and goes on to become one of the worlds best archers and winning medals and tournaments mastering the art of the bow and arrow , he realizes that hunting and the feeling of being out on the mountain stalking animals is what he loves doing. He goes on to train his body and mind to withstand the harsh conditions of the weather and nature. He then goes on to master the mountains, the animals, his body, his mind, his bow, and becomes a real hunting master. This guy is the real deal the best of the best, the amount of work he puts in to working out for these hunts is incredible and then he goes and tracks and stalks animals climbing mountains, walking through the dense woods, and walking up massive hill sides for miles and miles and miles. He has the natural talent He has the experience He has put in all the work He keeps on grinding

Literally can't stand Toe Rogan but respect you sir. The reason I commented, when you said you left the USA team because the league changed schedules to overlap elk hunting season. Brother... Mad respect.

John Dudley is a badass.

Wut instrumental was at the beggining??? That shit lowkey sounded dopee

Yeah John is a bad ass dude, the things he has done for the archery community is endless and we owe him greatly!!! Very well put together. Nock On!!!

Im sold....time to dial in and become the hunter I know and want to be...RAWRRRRRRRr!
