<v Speaker 3>Thanks for having me on, man, and we're excited. We're

0:01:03.800 --> 0:01:05.880
<v Speaker 3>back in the new building. Will be the first ones

0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:08.760
<v Speaker 3>in there for as far as the consumer trade show,

<v Speaker 2>We missed you last year.

0:01:14.480 --> 0:01:19.479
<v Speaker 1>Everybody missed you, and like, what sixty eight years now?

<v Speaker 1>So telling yeah, it's the we we have the new

0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:27.560
<v Speaker 1>renovated UH Cincinnati Convention Center. Duke Energy is no longer

0:01:27.600 --> 0:01:32.399
<v Speaker 1>the naming rights sponsor, which is fine by me. We

0:01:32.440 --> 0:01:36.480
<v Speaker 1>need to keep our electric rates low and but that's

0:01:36.560 --> 0:01:40.720
<v Speaker 1>another story. Okay, So all right, so we're rolling back in.

0:01:41.040 --> 0:01:43.320
<v Speaker 1>What can we expect because I'm sure there's been a

0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:44.160
<v Speaker 1>lot of changes.

0:01:45.400 --> 0:01:48.640

<v Speaker 3>one floor. And we took up the whole, the whole.

0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:39.600
<v Speaker 3>We're at A B and C, the whole. There isn't

0:03:39.680 --> 0:03:42.640
<v Speaker 3>a single corner in that main floor that isn't something

0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:43.600
<v Speaker 3>cool with good good.

0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:44.840
<v Speaker 2>So are you sold out?

0:03:46.160 --> 0:03:49.000
<v Speaker 3>Oh, we're sold out, baby. Like I said, every Milk

0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:51.240
<v Speaker 3>and Cranny is going to have something that goes with

0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:52.080
<v Speaker 3>the sports show.

0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:53.760
<v Speaker 2>How many RVs do you think you're gonna have?

0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:56.760
<v Speaker 3>You know, that depends on what they're bringing. I mean

0:03:56.920 --> 0:03:59.080
<v Speaker 3>last year or twenty four they brought a lot of

0:03:59.080 --> 0:04:03.600
<v Speaker 3>the diesel ushers. Oh okay, so they got like, what's

0:04:03.640 --> 0:04:06.000
<v Speaker 3>great about it is they've got enough stays where you're

0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:09.560
<v Speaker 3>going to see everything. Every class of camper there good.

0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:13.320
<v Speaker 1>So it's a it's a nice variety and less not

0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:16.280
<v Speaker 1>so much duplication because you know it's you know, the

0:04:16.640 --> 0:04:20.200
<v Speaker 1>RV lots these days, they're huge, okay, but the weather's miserable.

0:04:20.200 --> 0:04:23.159
<v Speaker 1>Who wants to look at r v's outside. Who wants

0:04:23.240 --> 0:04:25.800
<v Speaker 1>to look at boats outside? For crying out loud? Besides,

0:04:25.839 --> 0:04:28.320
<v Speaker 1>they're all shrink wrapped. So I mean this is an

0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:32.040
<v Speaker 1>ideal sit that that is great. So you'll how many

0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:34.080
<v Speaker 1>how many of the RV dealers are there.

0:04:35.120 --> 0:04:36.800

0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:39.880
<v Speaker 3>bringing RVs, so Boot Compass, Holven's, which is a big one.

0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:41.520
<v Speaker 3>This will be i think their first show ever.

0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:42.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:04:48.680 --> 0:04:50.920
<v Speaker 3>and so we're I'm very excited to have them. United

0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:53.120
<v Speaker 3>Motorsports is working on getting some of their campers up

<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're right.

0:04:57.920 --> 0:04:59.320

<v Speaker 3>r v's outside and so why not just come on inside?

0:05:01.920 --> 0:05:02.440

<v Speaker 1>your first issue of the year is out and oh

0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:58.640
<v Speaker 1>my gosh, your your Ohio Insider column inside front page

0:07:00.200 --> 0:07:05.200
<v Speaker 1>with poaching column responses, Well, holy cow, what do you think?

0:07:05.640 --> 0:07:07.400
<v Speaker 2>Huh?

0:07:07.480 --> 0:07:10.000
<v Speaker 4>I knew it. I wrote about a couple of cases

0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:14.320
<v Speaker 4>that the Divisional Wildlife prosecuted earlier in the fall, and

0:07:14.480 --> 0:07:17.000
<v Speaker 4>man did they did? People come out of the woodwork

0:07:17.040 --> 0:07:20.080
<v Speaker 4>to lend their opinion to that, which I love. I

0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:22.320
<v Speaker 4>loved it. I knew it would get a good response,

0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:25.640
<v Speaker 4>but like I said in that column, ship, it got more.

0:07:26.080 --> 0:07:29.560
<v Speaker 4>I got more letters on that topic than anything we've

0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:30.119
<v Speaker 4>ever done.

0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:33.840
<v Speaker 1>And you know what, that doesn't surprise me, you know.

0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:36.600
<v Speaker 1>And then of course that damn story that keeps having

0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:39.360
<v Speaker 1>legs with what's his name from Wilmington. You know, I

0:07:39.400 --> 0:07:41.840
<v Speaker 1>don't want to say his name, but it would have

0:07:41.920 --> 0:07:45.480
<v Speaker 1>been the record white tail, you know. And people think,

0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:48.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, and I'm sure you've heard this, Well it's

0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:51.840
<v Speaker 1>our we're it's our right to poach. We mean, we

0:07:51.920 --> 0:07:55.480
<v Speaker 1>might need to put food on the table. Okay, Well,

0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:59.360
<v Speaker 1>they're glorifying this guy for poaching what you know, probably

0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:03.000
<v Speaker 1>was the biggest you know, typical buck ever taken in Ohio.

0:08:03.280 --> 0:08:05.840
<v Speaker 2>And I was too kind two years ago.

0:08:06.080 --> 0:08:07.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, why two years ago?

0:08:07.640 --> 0:08:08.880
<v Speaker 2>Why does that keep coming up?

0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:12.119
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, it's a it's a good question, Chip.

0:08:12.160 --> 0:08:16.080
<v Speaker 4>And the real interesting thing about this is my column

0:08:16.120 --> 0:08:19.280
<v Speaker 4>for the issue that's going out this week. Yeah, is

0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:21.880
<v Speaker 4>touch touches on that because I'm talking about a guy

0:08:21.880 --> 0:08:25.960
<v Speaker 4>who killed a big, non typical two twenty eight and

0:08:26.320 --> 0:08:29.680
<v Speaker 4>he he's dealing with a lot of people saying he

0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:34.080
<v Speaker 4>poached it. And my column, I say it's social media

0:08:34.520 --> 0:08:37.840
<v Speaker 4>has gone crazy with this stuff. You know, every time

0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:40.760
<v Speaker 4>somebody kills a big buck, it's illegal. It's at shot

0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:44.520
<v Speaker 4>at night, they're trespassing. They did something wrong. And I

0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:47.000
<v Speaker 4>talked to this guy. He was in Champagne County. He

0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:50.520
<v Speaker 4>did not poach this buck. He shot it legally, been

0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:53.000
<v Speaker 4>chasing it for a while, but he had to deal

0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:55.320
<v Speaker 4>with all this rumor and indiendo, you know. So my

0:08:55.400 --> 0:08:58.760
<v Speaker 4>column deals with that in the January sixteenth issue. And

0:08:58.840 --> 0:09:01.680
<v Speaker 4>it's funny that you mentioned that, you know, Well.

0:09:01.480 --> 0:09:04.000
<v Speaker 1>It's it's sometimes, you know, with all the social media

0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:07.320
<v Speaker 1>out there. In god Ben, it's just overwhelming you know,

0:09:07.400 --> 0:09:11.840
<v Speaker 1>but I mean those of us n't quote the news business. Okay,

0:09:12.160 --> 0:09:15.960
<v Speaker 1>we got to follow this stuff. And Facebook is unfortunately

0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:21.760
<v Speaker 1>where a lot of it is coming up. So you know,

0:09:21.800 --> 0:09:24.960
<v Speaker 1>you got to pick and shoes and try and figure

0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:26.640
<v Speaker 1>out what's real and what's fake.

0:09:27.760 --> 0:09:30.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, you really do on a daily basis, yea, on

0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:32.720
<v Speaker 4>social media. You know, we didn't deal with this ten

0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:35.760
<v Speaker 4>fifteen years ago, but it's here today and it's here

0:09:35.800 --> 0:09:36.160
<v Speaker 4>to stay.

0:09:36.480 --> 0:09:39.240
<v Speaker 2>It's an hourly basis.

0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:41.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, you're right, absolutely.

0:09:40.800 --> 0:09:43.800
<v Speaker 1>And and then the people that say, well, you know

0:09:44.080 --> 0:09:47.040
<v Speaker 1>it's okay they needed to put food on the table. No,

0:09:47.559 --> 0:09:50.839
<v Speaker 1>it's a crime. There's a difference between right and wrong.

0:09:51.400 --> 0:09:54.800
<v Speaker 1>It's a law. It's illegal, okay. And I don't care

0:09:54.840 --> 0:09:58.480
<v Speaker 1>what species or fish or game we're talking about. But

0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:02.559
<v Speaker 1>you know what, well, just shut the hell up for

0:10:02.640 --> 0:10:04.640
<v Speaker 1>crying out loud if you don't know what you're talking about.

0:10:05.080 --> 0:10:07.600
<v Speaker 4>Follow the rules, man, I mean, come on, everybody else

0:10:07.679 --> 0:10:10.120
<v Speaker 4>has to follow the rules. It's just like anything else. Chip,

0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:12.920
<v Speaker 4>I mean, you know, one bad apple spoils a whole bunch.

0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:14.959
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, and you're gonna get caught.

0:10:15.360 --> 0:10:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Hey, yeah, you know what, you are gonna get caught

0:10:18.760 --> 0:10:19.920
<v Speaker 1>everybody gets caught.

0:10:20.120 --> 0:10:20.839
<v Speaker 2>I don't care.

0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:24.439
<v Speaker 4>Everybody gets caught, big buck. Oh they always get caught.

0:10:24.600 --> 0:10:26.440
<v Speaker 2>Always. So how do you how.

0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:28.720
<v Speaker 1>Do you feel about the uh, you know, about the

0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:30.840
<v Speaker 1>fines that are being what you know, what the courts

0:10:30.840 --> 0:10:32.920
<v Speaker 1>you're handing out, what the you know, the fines that

0:10:32.920 --> 0:10:37.440
<v Speaker 1>are the restitution? Uh you think it's commensurate with uh,

0:10:37.720 --> 0:10:40.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, with with with uh you know, with the

0:10:40.880 --> 0:10:42.800
<v Speaker 1>animals that are being taken today.

0:10:44.880 --> 0:10:46.800
<v Speaker 4>Chip And like I said in that column, I think

0:10:46.840 --> 0:10:51.760
<v Speaker 4>there's a disconnect between the hunting hunting people and the public.

0:10:52.480 --> 0:10:54.720
<v Speaker 4>There's a real disconnect there. And I know I don't

0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:57.160
<v Speaker 4>think they are com measured with the crimes that are

0:10:57.160 --> 0:11:01.160
<v Speaker 4>being committed. I think judges are too lenient on on poachers.

0:11:01.240 --> 0:11:05.520
<v Speaker 4>They they're multiple times that people do this, They get

0:11:05.520 --> 0:11:09.040
<v Speaker 4>caught multiple times, and that shouldn't happen. Yeah, you know,

0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:11.280
<v Speaker 4>this should be stiff enough the first time where you're

0:11:11.320 --> 0:11:12.040
<v Speaker 4>not going to do it.

0:11:12.400 --> 0:11:12.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:15.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh well, listen, hey, I do we'd be on the

0:11:15.600 --> 0:11:17.840
<v Speaker 1>same page. You know, even if you weren't on the

0:11:17.880 --> 0:11:22.240
<v Speaker 1>same page, I just don't have you on. Okay, Hey,

0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:24.120
<v Speaker 1>Mike Moore, sit tight. We got to hit a short

0:11:24.160 --> 0:11:27.040
<v Speaker 1>break we'll be back more to discuss some other topics

0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:30.280
<v Speaker 1>and get his opinion on the Big Outdoors News Radio

0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:37.319
<v Speaker 1>seven hundred WLW Cincinnati. Back in the moment, and we're

0:11:37.360 --> 0:11:40.840
<v Speaker 1>back to Big Outdoors News Radio, seven hundred WLW, Cincinnati.

0:11:40.840 --> 0:11:41.280
<v Speaker 2>Stick around.

0:11:41.280 --> 0:11:42.480
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be a hell of a fun day at

0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:43.920
<v Speaker 1>the Big One. I'm not going to go through the

0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:47.800
<v Speaker 1>whole routine around here. But you got sports turbuls finding

0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:51.160
<v Speaker 1>less to do these days, but you know they'll stay busy.

0:11:51.200 --> 0:11:53.360
<v Speaker 1>And then you've got Gary jeff Walker and his cast

0:11:53.400 --> 0:11:56.560
<v Speaker 1>of characters and Gary Jeffers. Since I know you're waiting

0:11:56.559 --> 0:11:58.959
<v Speaker 1>in the win, you pay attention to some of this stuff. Okay,

0:11:59.120 --> 0:12:01.640
<v Speaker 1>I really want you to, because uh, you know, you

0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:05.120
<v Speaker 1>being from down south and all, you know, I think.

0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:06.320
<v Speaker 2>You're like it. All right.

0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:10.720
<v Speaker 1>We had Mike Moore, editor of Ohio Outdoor News. Okay, Mike,

0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:13.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure you're beginning to follow and I've had to

0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:15.600
<v Speaker 1>follow this for about a week and a half or

0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:16.120
<v Speaker 1>maybe more.

0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:17.000
<v Speaker 4>Uh.

0:12:17.080 --> 0:12:18.400
<v Speaker 2>The woman hiking.

0:12:18.200 --> 0:12:21.199
<v Speaker 1>Uh uh you know east to excuse me, west of

0:12:21.360 --> 0:12:25.160
<v Speaker 1>Denver on I guess a well known trail and uh

0:12:25.480 --> 0:12:27.760
<v Speaker 1>was uh you know, was killed by a mountain lion

0:12:28.040 --> 0:12:30.280
<v Speaker 1>it was. It was alledge for about a week. I

0:12:30.280 --> 0:12:34.600
<v Speaker 1>don't know what took so long, but that's where it stood. Now,

0:12:35.160 --> 0:12:38.079
<v Speaker 1>of course we come to find out that, uh, there

0:12:38.080 --> 0:12:42.079
<v Speaker 1>were probably three lines involved. Two have been killed, one

0:12:42.160 --> 0:12:47.080
<v Speaker 1>had human DNA in it, the other one did not.

0:12:47.720 --> 0:12:50.720
<v Speaker 1>She was asphyxiated, which means she probably came out of

0:12:50.720 --> 0:12:54.160
<v Speaker 1>a tree, jumped on her neck and just took care

0:12:54.200 --> 0:12:54.800
<v Speaker 1>of it from there.

0:12:55.760 --> 0:12:56.400
<v Speaker 4>Oh my good.

0:12:56.880 --> 0:13:01.120
<v Speaker 1>So going back even farther, there have been multiple uh

0:13:01.720 --> 0:13:07.840
<v Speaker 1>uh uh near attacks in the weeks preceding which just

0:13:07.960 --> 0:13:08.480
<v Speaker 1>came out.

0:13:08.640 --> 0:13:11.400
<v Speaker 2>So this was not an isolated incident.

0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:16.760
<v Speaker 1>And so you know, you're talking about other couples, and

0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:18.199
<v Speaker 1>here's what I don't get.

0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:20.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Hey, you know it's tragic.

0:13:21.840 --> 0:13:24.319
<v Speaker 1>Why are you not Why why are you out there

0:13:24.360 --> 0:13:28.400
<v Speaker 1>alone in an area known for mountain lions, in.

0:13:28.400 --> 0:13:31.079
<v Speaker 4>The area known for mountain lions, and probably didn't have

0:13:31.679 --> 0:13:34.120
<v Speaker 4>pepper spray or whatever might have helped her, you know.

0:13:34.120 --> 0:13:36.760
<v Speaker 1>So that's right, did not have a gun, a handgun,

0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:40.000
<v Speaker 1>did not have pepper spray, no no protection whatsoever.

0:13:40.800 --> 0:13:45.640
<v Speaker 4>What what do you think? What are you thinking? Exactly? Yes,

0:13:46.120 --> 0:13:47.800
<v Speaker 4>that's when it comes. That's the first thing that comes

0:13:47.840 --> 0:13:48.440
<v Speaker 4>to mind for me.

0:13:49.080 --> 0:13:50.760
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, you're in lions there.

0:13:50.800 --> 0:13:53.000
<v Speaker 1>All the lions have come down out of high country

0:13:53.000 --> 0:13:55.520
<v Speaker 1>because all of the game is down the elk, the

0:13:55.559 --> 0:13:56.560
<v Speaker 1>deer and everything else.

0:13:56.640 --> 0:13:59.640
<v Speaker 2>They follow the food, the food.

0:14:00.600 --> 0:14:04.120
<v Speaker 1>So you know, here we are today, and I guess

0:14:04.200 --> 0:14:08.000
<v Speaker 1>they've got one more lion to go after, they think,

0:14:08.679 --> 0:14:09.120
<v Speaker 1>and so.

0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:12.720
<v Speaker 2>It'll happen again.

0:14:14.280 --> 0:14:17.439
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. Man, that's that's a real I wonder if I'm

0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:20.240
<v Speaker 4>sure Colorado has a hunting season mountain lion. Don't they

0:14:20.360 --> 0:14:20.920
<v Speaker 4>I don't know.

0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:23.400
<v Speaker 2>Not, yes, but not with dogs.

0:14:24.320 --> 0:14:26.720
<v Speaker 3>Oh okay, they banned that.

0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:30.080
<v Speaker 2>I guess they. I don't know when. But there is

0:14:30.360 --> 0:14:31.480
<v Speaker 2>a lion season.

0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:35.880
<v Speaker 1>However, most difficult if you're not using dogs, because that's

0:14:35.920 --> 0:14:37.800
<v Speaker 1>how you hunt mountain lions.

0:14:38.200 --> 0:14:40.520
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and they probably are not hunting in the National

0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:43.280
<v Speaker 4>Park either. I don't know.

0:14:43.640 --> 0:14:45.640
<v Speaker 2>I have not gotten into any of that.

0:14:45.840 --> 0:14:48.360
<v Speaker 1>I know that this particular location is close to Rocky

0:14:48.400 --> 0:14:50.720
<v Speaker 1>Mountain National Park, but it's a different, I guess kind

0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:55.880
<v Speaker 1>of wilderness area. But nonetheless, it is an unusual circumstance.

0:14:55.920 --> 0:14:58.040
<v Speaker 1>I think it goes back probably thirty years since the

0:14:58.120 --> 0:15:01.600
<v Speaker 1>last time that this has happened. But you know, when

0:15:01.600 --> 0:15:04.720
<v Speaker 1>you move into Lyon country, and they're gonna get used

0:15:04.800 --> 0:15:09.080
<v Speaker 1>to you, and that's just get lesson, you know, they're

0:15:09.360 --> 0:15:12.040
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna get less afraid, so to speak.

0:15:12.240 --> 0:15:15.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, I guess there's a.

0:15:15.000 --> 0:15:16.960
<v Speaker 2>Lesson there, Mike. I don't know what it is.

0:15:17.080 --> 0:15:19.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I think our audience is smart enough to

0:15:19.240 --> 0:15:22.000
<v Speaker 1>know that, uh, you know, we don't do stupid craft

0:15:22.040 --> 0:15:22.320
<v Speaker 1>like that.

0:15:22.640 --> 0:15:23.840
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

0:15:25.520 --> 0:15:29.720
<v Speaker 4>And these people there against hunting, I mean that there's

0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:31.040
<v Speaker 4>evidence right there, you know.

0:15:31.280 --> 0:15:33.640
<v Speaker 2>So absolutely all right.

0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:37.480
<v Speaker 1>Tell us about the Waldo, Ohio Coyote round up.

0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:41.600
<v Speaker 4>Oh man, it's a big deal up here just north

0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:44.920
<v Speaker 4>of where I am Chip And there's a guy named

<v Speaker 4>Lonnie Henderson who does a little bit of writing for me,

0:15:47.320 --> 0:15:49.200
<v Speaker 4>and he's he's really involved with that.

0:15:49.480 --> 0:15:49.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:15:49.720 --> 0:15:51.960
<v Speaker 4>I've never been up to it. I don't know exactly

0:15:52.000 --> 0:15:54.920
<v Speaker 4>what goes on, but I know it's a huge deal

0:15:55.000 --> 0:15:58.320
<v Speaker 4>up in Waldo, which is in Marion County, just north

0:15:58.320 --> 0:15:58.800

<v Speaker 1>This is uh January sixteen to eighteen, so it's for

0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:28.840
<v Speaker 1>a three day period and uh so I guess you know,

0:16:28.880 --> 0:16:31.920
<v Speaker 1>it's really just free range coyote hunting and whatever you shop,

0:16:32.040 --> 0:16:34.560

<v Speaker 1>You don't have to hunt and fish, but you certainly

<v Speaker 1>got to know about it. Moving on, Tennessee is now

0:18:11.960 --> 0:18:16.200
<v Speaker 1>the first US state to make gun safety courses mandatory

0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:21.520
<v Speaker 1>in schools. What do you think of that, Danny? I mean,

0:18:22.280 --> 0:18:25.000
<v Speaker 1>what whose brainchild?

0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:25.560
<v Speaker 2>Okay?

0:18:25.640 --> 0:18:27.760
<v Speaker 1>I remember back in the day the NRA had the

<v Speaker 1>any Eddie the Eagle program, you know, firearms training, you

0:18:31.000 --> 0:18:32.560

<v Speaker 2>I'm sure it's still around.

0:18:34.000 --> 0:18:38.639
<v Speaker 1>Tennessee took the initiative and uh uh, let's see. The

0:18:38.720 --> 0:18:41.720
<v Speaker 1>new law, signed by Governor Bill Lee, will take effect

0:18:41.880 --> 0:18:45.840
<v Speaker 1>in the twenty twenty sixth school year, all K twelve

0:18:45.960 --> 0:18:52.320
<v Speaker 1>students to receive annual training on basic gun safety. That

0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:57.560
<v Speaker 1>is just absolutely fantastic. If you're wondering where Ohio ranks

0:18:57.600 --> 0:19:01.400
<v Speaker 1>in terms of Trophy Bucks, this came out in Game

0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:03.280
<v Speaker 1>and Fish, and I think was written by a game

0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:06.840
<v Speaker 1>guy named Mike Rex with Buckeye Big Bucks at least

0:19:07.720 --> 0:19:11.400
<v Speaker 1>he probably found all this. Ohio ranks two number two

0:19:11.960 --> 0:19:16.480
<v Speaker 1>in the nation with four hundred and sixty four Trophy

0:19:17.040 --> 0:19:20.840
<v Speaker 1>B and C entries from the past ten years. And

0:19:20.880 --> 0:19:25.800
<v Speaker 1>if you think Ohio's deer hunting sucks, look again. With that,
