On this episode of Gritty Bowmen we meet with Rachel Vandevoort of Kimber Firearms. Rachel's friend, Nick Hoffman of Nick's Wild Ride also joins us at SHOT Show in Las Vegas. On this episode we talk about what to carry while archery hunting for protection against bears and cougars. We discuss bear spray, calibers, revolvers, conservation, and Rachel shows us a few of the different models. Rachel is an arsenal of knowledge when it comes to guns. If you listened to last year's podcast Episode 134 with Rachel, you know she is a firecracker and a lot of fun!

Kimber is an American company that designs and manufactures premium firearms for individual, sporting, and law enforcement and military markets. Basically, Kimber makes sweet guns. And Rachel is the Trade Relations Manager at Kimber.

We had a great time visiting with her and we are excited about what they're doing with the RMEF for conservation. And go check out Nick's Wild Ride on The Outdoor Channel and tell us what you think. -Stay Gritty
