EPISODE 43: Pt. 2-Train to What??? Hunt! with Phil Mendoza

On this episode of Gritty Bowmen, Aron and I were supposed to talk about Ethical Shot distance. But instead, we got side-tracked on a few tangents and completely left the reservation. In this podcast we actually talk about hunting industry camo patterns--Aron makes a few jokes--no offense intended. We talk about what’s going on at Kifaru lately. And we promise that our next episode will, in fact, cover ethical shot distance. Please excuse the poor audio quality of my microphone in this podcast--I screwed up.

In this episode of The Gritty Bowmen Podcast we talk with Corey Jacobsen. Corey is an 8 time Elk Calling Champion. He owns Elk101.com an Elk Hunting website with all things related to hunting elk. We talk about Corey's Elk Hunting Season this year. Corey reveals he shot his elk with a frontal shot and we delve into that for a bit. Corey shares a few tips and tricks and what types of arrows and broad heads he used this year. Featured in this podcast:G5 Striker Broadheadhttp://www.g5prime.comhttp://www.elk101.com 

On this Episode of Gritty Bowmen we hang out with my uncle Kevin Call--joint owner of High Point Outfitters in Arizona. Kevin runs highpoint with his son Blake and their longtime friend John Adams. Kevin knows Arizona--he’s been hunting Arizona since the 70’s. I grew up watching my uncle Kevin hunt all over the West killing monster mule deer, elk, antelope and more. I grew up seeing photos of his hunts and his hunting stories in magazines and hearing hunting stories at family reunions. I can still remember the first time I walked into his giant garage--there were deer and elk antlers from floor to ceiling of all the animals he’s taken. To me, those antlers represent a mountain of time spent in the outdoors and a vast amount of collected experiences. In this podcast Uncle Kevin shares his thoughts on hunting AZ. My Dad and Kevin share some special memories of hunting Arizona in areas like the Kaibab and the Arizona Strip when they were younger. We talk about guiding and being an outfitter and why he does it. And we learn about Kevin’s favorite game camera--after all, High Point Outfitters runs about 200 game cameras all year. Coincidentally, I bought a couple of the cameras recommended after recording this podcast and I’m quite pleased with their performance.If you’re listening to this podcast you might want to take a moment to watch the beginning to see some pictures of some amazing Arizona elk, deer and antelope.Featured in this podcast:High Point OutfittersHPO Youtube Channel Stealth Cam G30

EPISODE 39: Gaps In Our Fitness & What We're Doing To Fix Them

In this episode Brian and Aron talk about some of the mistakes they made this hunting season and in season's past. 

In this podcast Brian Call and the fellow Gritty Bowmen, Ben Morris and Anthony Spencer share the story of their 2015 Elk Hunt. They ultimately end up with a Warrior. The antler in his shoulder and missing antler were just a few of the clues to this old bull's life.  - Stay Gritty 

Episode 36: PART 1 Which type of Hunting Partner are you? In typical Aron Snyder fashion he has come up with some different types. For example "The Grass is Always Greener Guy" - There is always going to be something better over the next ridge. Or "Mr. Rogers" - He's always happy and positive to the point of annoyance for some. Or are you the "Through Hiker"? All go, no quit. Or "The Hunting Nazi"? He shoots everything out from under you. He's the first guy to break rank. Find out which one you are and which type of partners you have.
