I was pumped to see him win!

His run was awesome! IMO, you can really tell who the hunters are with the new scenario format!

Congrats Dave. Amazing calling.

Here's a link to the finals. Dave's run starts around the 1:01:20 mark. Be sure to hear the two judges comment at the end of his run.

Those calling sequences were absolutely perfect! The best I have ever heard that didn't come from something covered in feathers. Congratulations to you, Dave.

I was sitting in the call room and once Dave finished his run I told one of the friction contest guys.. Dave was strong... I predict we have a new winner. He was really outstanding. So natural and just absolutely clean calling. When they did announce him as the winner, couple of his buddies were right beside me, they could hardly contain themselves ... We ARE GOING TO PARTY TONIGHT!!!!! .... Great to see fresh blood win the GN.

Congrats sir... well done!

First of all nice seeing you...

I remember the first year Dave made the cut, could tell he was nervous, yelping 200 mph, few slips etc.

I was in the room with our group and when he won I was so happy. I never ran into him this weekend, normally we chat. He's a great guy

I finally got it to load so I could listen to Dave. I've apparently not listened to any of the GNCC since they went to this format, but I like it. Again,
great calling Dave!

Not to rain on the parade, but I see from this link where Jesse Martin won and Dave was 1st runner-up which is pretty damn good. Was this report accurate? Gil
