Gritty Podcast

This week on Gritty Bowmen we talk about some of the camera gear we use to film our hunts and make our movies. We don't claim to be professional cameramen at Gritty Bowmen. There are a lot of guys out there who know a lot more than we do about filmmaking. And that's great. But when I was getting into filmmaking I had difficulty finding the resources I needed to step up my game. By the end of today's podcast you'll have a clear understanding of the equipment we use and we'll provide you with some useful links to training materials we've used as well as links to the equipment we prefer. There is some footage that was taken with a Canon DSLR 70D, a Sony 4K camcorder and a consumer grade Sony Handicam. You can compare the footage between the cameras for yourselves at the end of this podcast. All the footage will be raw and will not have any image correction done on them. Thanks for watching.

This week on Gritty Bowmen we go back to Rainier Oregon to talk archery shooting with our friend Cory Miller, owner of triple-x archery shop. We chat with Cory about common archery shooting mistakes that guys make and how to improve your shooting. We talk about his struggle with trigger-panic, a common problem among avid archers. Cory tells us some of the strategies he used to overcome the problem. And we talk about buck-fever. How do you overcome it? And how do you make that critical shot in the heat of the moment when it's all on the line. http://www.kifaru.net http://themeateater.com http://xxx-archery.com Please take a moment to leave us a rating or a review on iTunes and or our Youtube channel.

That's it for EPISODE 4 of the Gritty Bowmen podcast. Part 2 of Are you a Stalker? Stalking Monster Mule Deer w/South Cox & Stalker Stickbows. I got a lot of information out of these two podcasts with South on how to kill a monster mule deer. In summary, South explained the need to have a positive attitude and Mental Toughness. Another key to his success is that South gets remote with a focus on wilderness areas. And South looks for hunting grounds with what he calls "Micro Topography" . South likes to stalk from above. This helps him with wind. Because deer bedded on hillsides tend to face downhill and therefore don't see you coming. South also finds it easier to sneak in on the animal from above when you need to stay low or crawl. Unlike some hunters, South likes to wait until the animal beds down before he stalks his deer. South recommends buying the best glass you can afford. South stressed the importance of mounting your binoculars to a tripod. And when glassing, don't just glass from the main ridgeline. Walk out on the finger-ridges that branch off the main ridge line and glass to the end of the finger ridge. South likes lightweight boots that have soft soles—he finds them quieter and they help him when hopping through a boulder field. He mentioned Solomon boots, the Lowa Zephyr, Lowa Renegade, and one of his favorites, the Ahnu Elk Ridge Mid. At 70 to 100 yards from his quarry, South sheds his boots and dons a thick pair of socks to silently close the distance. But he recommends marking the location of your boots somehow so you don't lose your boots. And South likes Smoke in a Bottle brand wind checker. South carries 3 things in his front right pocket. Chapstick, lens cloth, and Smoke in a bottle. www. stalkerstickbows.com http://www.ahnu.com http://moccasinjoedist.com/store/unscented-smoke/43-smoke-in-a-bottle.html http://www.lowaboots.com I hope you enjoyed this podcast as much as I did.
