"Designed to Catch BIGGER Fish"

On this episode of The Gritty Bowmen we hang out with our friends Nick Best and Calvin Halladay to listen to the tale of Big 'D'. An old cagey bull with a ton of character. The nickname Big 'D' stands for Daggers. Hunters often refer to the G4 antler as "The Dagger", hence the name Big 'D'. We hear about the history of this bull and how this bull survived so long on public land here in Oregon. We talk about the raffle tag being won by a poor college student and we learn about how Calvin helped hunt this bull and why. We also learn about late season elk hunting tactics.

In this podcast you'll learn how to use your GPS unit in conjunction with land navigation, converting grid to magnetic and magnetic to grid, intersection, re-section and back azimuth and a brief overview of why you would want to use land navigation.

In this episode of The Gritty Bowmen Aron Snyder of Kifaru International shares Navigation Basics. Brian Call is known for his knack of getting "misplaced" which is a polite way of saying getting lost. Aron shares a wealth of information in his typical no-nonsense, funny way that will hopefully leave you entertained and educated. We hope you enjoy this podcast and we'd like to thank Aron for all the time, effort, thought and hardwork he put into making this podcast. -Stay Gritty
