Traditional Bowhunting OTC Colorado Elk-2023
The way this trip changed me made it to where I couldn't not post anything about it. The shortest of my short films. Still packs a punch I think and I look forward to my chance to go again.

      Motorola was sold to a Chinese company so, not the same. In this case, Motorola did not design or manufacture this device. They only licensed their name and logo to Bullitt. Bullitt also marketed the Cat (as in Catapillar the heavy equipment manufacturer) cellphone. Catapillar has also licensed their name and logo to Bullitt. Bullitt has laid off all of their employees and has filed bankruptcy. So far, they have failed to acquire additional funding or find a buyer for the company. If you search, you can find info about the Bullitt bankruptcy. Bullitt does not own the satalites or the ground stations but, without the Bullitt service or a new provider, the Defy will not continue to work. I have one and hope somehow the service will continue.

    Being stuck/injured in a valley with this device is one of my worries because you need to have a clear view of the southern sky for it to work, unlike the Garmin devices which use the LEO Iridium network. It sucks that Iridium has such crazy service fees, but until other satellite players like Starlink or whatever Bezos is trying to set up is a viable option, I guess we'll have to deal with this near service monopoly.

    • @InstinctiveAdventures
      @InstinctiveAdventures 10 місяців тому

      I was in the sangres and only had a lapse of about 20 hiking mins at a very slow pace. I’ll be very curious to see how it performs in the dark valleys of the Appalachians this season. But I’ve heard of similar issues with Garmin and zoleo devices. This device uses Inmarsat and echo star. Those two together are at about half the satellite count of iridium, but I’d wager that will change rapidly.

    • @InstinctiveAdventures

      Might be too stiff, but will be close. Those instincts don’t act like their spine from my experience either. So I might be wrong. Bareshaft will be the only way to tell

  • @dysonsphere
    @dysonsphere Рік тому

    How did you decide the starting spine? That's a 100gr outsert and what looks like a 200gr point. Do you choose based on full length from Black Eagle's chart then start tuning and cutting?

    • @InstinctiveAdventures
      @InstinctiveAdventures Рік тому

      Really great question, I should have said something in the video. If you’re using standard inserts with a standard 100-150 head you can use manufacture spine charts, if you’re going more of a higher FOC mindset and using brass inserts or a heavier head you’ll want to use a dynamic spine calculator. That will at least get you into the ballpark. 3 rivers has a pretty decent spine calculator

    • @InstinctiveAdventures
      @InstinctiveAdventures Рік тому

      If you’re more of a hands on person starting with a blank slate you can order spine kits for both shafts and heads. Again three rivers sells spine kits where you get basically one of each spine
