On this episode of Gritty Bowmen, we visit with Jana Waller and Jim Kinsey of SkullboundTV. Many of you know them from Skullbound TV. But you may not know that Camerman-Jimmy, AKA Jim Kinsey is a musical maestro. Homie's got some sic beats--you can hear some of his music on iTunes. Look for the link in the Gritty Bowmen show notes on our website. https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/kryptek-overcome-single/id1069999245

Jim and Jana are huge proponents of conservation. And in their show, they take the time to highlight how hunting IS conservation. Jim was in the marines. And he and Jana are actively involved in supporting U.S. veterans. It was my pleasure meeting them.

On this episode of Gritty Bowmen, we hang out with my new friend, Tim Burnett, of Solo Hunter. I'm a huge fan of Solo Hunter. If you don't like the show, I don't know what's wrong with you. Solo Hunter is Gritty. The raw, Do It Yourself Nature of the show really appeals to me. In the show, Tim and Remi Warren are both the hunter AND the cameraman. That's intense. I can barely film a hunt when we've got a full-time cameraman--I can't even imagine trying to pull it off while trying to shoot an animal. Tim was easy to talk to. And he's pretty much the same guy you see on the show--real gritty and down to earth.

In this podcast we meet with my Uncle Kevin Call and John Adams of High Point Outfitters guide service in Arizona. Kevin and John and their team of guides are genuine, down to earth, hard working, smart hunters that are passionate about hunting and helping others be successful. Unless it's your wife, then things might get a little too intense. ;) They get real about what it's like to hunt with a significant other and how sometimes it's best to take a backseat, or you might end up sleeping in the doghouse.

They provide some tips and tricks on how to register for Arizona this coming year with the recent changes for 2016, as well as some of the changes in Colorado.

On this episode of Gritty Bowmen, we travel to Louisville Kentucky to attend the ATA trade show--ATA stands for Archery Trade Association. The ATA Trade Show is the archery and bowhunting industry's LARGEST show. The show is a member-driven event to promote commerce within the archery and bowhunting industry.

In today's podcast we visit with Eva Shockey. Eva's dad, Jim Shockey, is one of the most well-known hunters in the world. Today, Eva co-hosts "Jim Shockey's Hunting Adventures" TV show and represents the Shockey family at outdoor trade and consumer shows.

Eva was a breathe of fresh air. She was easy to talk to, down to earth, and an excellent ambassador for hunting--challenging the stereotypical image of the knuckle-dragging, fist pumping, male hunter; Eva makes it difficult for those against hunting to claim that hunters are uneducated, heartless, animal-hating human beings. And for this, I thank her.

I hope you enjoy the show.

And Let me leave you with another great quote from Theodore Roosevelt who said, "It behooves every man to reemember that the work of the critic is of altogether secondary importance, and that, in the end, progress is accomplished by the man who does things."

We all have a choice--we can be people who do things or people who criticise the work of others. It's pretty simple really.. don't be jerk. And get out there and do your thing.

Good luck on your hunts. And Stay Gritty!

Sadie Kennel has been hunting for about 7 years. She was born and raised in Idaho. What drives Sadie Kennel to hunt?

Sadie gets real about what it's like to hunt in late season and what it's like to hunt with her boyfriend, Jason Wright of Pure Elevation Productions.

Here's a little sample of today's podcast.

Sadie: My boot's wet and he (Jason) gets the jetboil out and he's trying to dry out my boot with the open flame and that's not working. So finally he pulls out his dry sack that he has for his sleeping bag and says, "Here put this on"… I finally get out of the tent and I shove my foot in this dry bag and put it in my boot and I have my jetboil full of coffee and I'm just like dragging my feet over to the spot and it's foggy… and we get there and I kinda see this weird silhouette. I thought it was a tree. It turns out it wasn't a tree it was a deer.

Brian: How dramatically does that improve your mood?

Sadie: Oh instantly! It was like throw my pack off, gettin' my crap together and I'm like, "Where are we sitting? Let's do this!"

This week on The Gritty Bowmen Podcast we team up with Phil Mendoza and Will Bradley of The Natural Born Hunter Podcast. Will Bradley is a Train to Hunt director and competitor. Phil is the Train to Hunt National Champion.

Phil is no stranger to the Gritty Bowmen Podcast. He was on Episode 43: Train to What? Hunt! and regular Gritty co-host, Aron Snyder of Kifaru International, shared the story of Phil's epic big horn sheep hunting trip on Episode 24 and part 2 on Episode 30.

This podcast is a bit freestyle and covers a wide range of topics. There's a little bit of everything; from MMA, WWE, Sponsorships and Train to Hunt, to good books, Crossfit and of course some humor thrown in.
