Know Where You Stand w/ Dylan Dowson

Spring is heating up on The Fair Chase podcast as we gear up for Michigan turkey chases and bear hunts! This week, we’re pumped to have Dylan Dawson from OnX, a decade-long veteran of the ultimate hunting app. Dylan’s a Montana native who’s been hunting since he was tagging along for a 190-inch mule deer at age 5, and now he’s driving OnX’s Western big game marketing.

We dive into how OnX evolved from GPS chips to a phone app that’s a hunter’s best friend, plus Dylan’s excitement for drawing a killer New Mexico aoudad tag and his wife’s epic Montana elk tag. From corner crossing controversies to underused map tools, this episode is packed with insights for leveling up your hunts.

We also cover:
- Why the slope angle layer is a game-changer for Western hunting
- The wild Wyoming corner crossing case and what it means for public land access
- How OnX’s two-finger tap and 3D exaggeration make scouting a breeze
- Dylan’s favorite hunts (archery elk or rifle mule deer?) and his addiction to new species
