Shawn Melland grabbed the cover of Eastmans’ Bowhunting Journal this past issue and when I heard he was going to be in town for Summer Strong 17 over at Sorinex HQ this week, I  convinced him to jump across the lake and join me in the studio.
I am often intrigued about the drive that causes folks from small places to make big footprints in the world.  Shawn is a man leaving big footprints.
From a small town in western North Dakota, where there were more cattle than people, Shawn Melland has become one of the most formidable elk hunters in Montana and on the western landscape.  
Shawn has arrowed 7 bulls in 8 seasons with an average gross score of just over  375”.   We know score isn’t the whole game, but even if you aren’t a “score” guy, you have to be impressed with what Shawn has accomplished in a relatively short amount of time as a bowhunter focused on chasing giant elk.  
We also have a bonus guest on this episode as . Shawn’s partner in crime, Colton Dombrowki, joined him on the trip so we threw him into the fray as well.  The self-titled Bugle Boys were great guests and we had a ripping good time talking elk strategy as well as telling some  great stories. 
Through passion drive, and discipline Shawn has become one of the most accomplished archery elk hunters over the last decade. 
Shawn is an entrepreneur, father, husband, athlete, & bow hunter.  Enjoy the episode
