He 299 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: was explaining to me that traditionally it was a bear's 300 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 1: shin b. So I got from Corey's bear last year. 301 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: I got a shin bone, and I made a few 302 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: prongs and I took one of their knocks and took 303 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: the stainless off and put the what I basically took 304 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 1: the shin bone, took a porter band, kind of got 305 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: it roughed in, and then I ran it on a 306 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 1: you know, I did it. I took a bench made 307 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: belt and just slowly like for like sharpener belt and 308 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: shape that thing. I was quite proud of it, sent 309 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 1: it up to him. I don't know if they've used 310 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: it yet, but anyways, her dad's kind of a perfectionist, 311 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 1: so I'm guessing that he's not happy with. He probably 312 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 1: likes the idea, but is not impressed by that nice gesture. 313 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 1: He's like, I could see what he was shooting. He's 314 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 1: probably I'm putting thoughts in his mouth, but he's probably like, 315 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: I see what this kid was shooting for, and if 316 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: I had a shin bone, I would perfect.

That'd be awesome. Yeah, but I don't think. 322 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if they've tried it out yet. When I 323 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: went out with them to set these hooks, I was skeptical. 324 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: Were you there? Yeah?

And when you 333 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: set them, you encourage them. You're like, go get them, 334 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 1: and then you're like your friends coming to fight you, 335 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: you know, so you lower it down and we set 336 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 1: out six sets. So he set twelve hooks and pulled 337 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:06,400 Speaker 1: like three seventy pound plus. Hell yeah, wow, like an 338 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:11,400 Speaker 1: hour soak.

I couldn't believe it. 340 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:20,679 Speaker 1: I couldn't have done that with regular hooks. And that 341 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 1: was like not like ideal season. It was late season. 342 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, it was what September was it was it that over? 343 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:29,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a little later. It's kind of after 344 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: this the salmon were done. 345 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it was late September. 346 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 1: The softcover of Catching Crayfish Counting Stars is out if 347 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: you haven't already picked up a softcover copy, it's out. 348 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: So it's our kids activity book. I did two books 349 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 1: like back to back. I did Outdoor Kids in an 350 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: Inside World, which is kind of a book for parents 351 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: or caregivers, their aunts and uncles about getting kind of 352 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: the philosophy and practice of getting kids engaged with nature. 353 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 1: And then the follow up was Ketcha Crayfish Counting Stars, 354 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 1: which is like an activity book for outdoor kids to educate, 355 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 1: inspire and make them tougher, make them more knowledgeable about nature. 356 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,719 Speaker 1: It's just little things they can do, projects they can 357 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 1: do with help. You know, some things you got to 358 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,120 Speaker 1: have a machety or whatever, So you got to help 359 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: them out with some stuff. Some stuff they can do 360 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: safely on their own. It came out in hardcover. It 361 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: was a number one New York Times bestseller. The soft 362 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: cover is out. So what I keep saying as a 363 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: joke is if you've got a kid that's not good enough, 364 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 1: really not well behaved enough for a hardcover, like what 365 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 1: kid in America is so bad you can't have a 366 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:37,880 Speaker 1: soft cover. I really liked that joke a lot. I've 367 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 1: used it four times. It was the fourth time. 368 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,959 Speaker 3: How is it performing on the. 369 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,399 Speaker 1: No feedback on it? No feedback? It might be like 370 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:49,640 Speaker 1: Corey's Bear, where people are jealous and so they don't 371 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:50,160 Speaker 1: say much. 372 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, I'm sure that's it. 373 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 2: No. 374 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 1: No, I just told you I liked the joke. I 375 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: thought you're being facetious. 376 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 7: No no, I thought it was very clever. I like 377 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 7: the idea of bad kids. 378 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 5: Think we may have. 379 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 3: Lost Will here. 380 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, I'm bringing them right back 381 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: in because I got a question for Will. Okay, picture 382 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: with me? 383 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 2: Here. 384 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 1: Oh, do you know what this shirt is? You don't, 385 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,199 Speaker 1: I'll tell you. This is the odds of if you 386 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: get within seventy yards of a turkey and his roof 387 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: tree and don't do anything, what are the odds he's 388 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 1: going to walk within shotgun range? That's the math problem. 389 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 1: That's pretty cool. Do nothing, do nothing. There's a thirteen 390 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,439 Speaker 1: percent chance he'll be within shotgun range when he leaves. 391 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 1: That leads into my question, if you like, if you 392 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 1: just take an average turkey hunter's lifetime and he and 393 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,399 Speaker 1: he here's a gobble and calls to a bird, the 394 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: bird doesn't come, what percent of the time in your 395 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 1: in your view, after lifetime of turkey hunting and being 396 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 1: a master turkey hunter, in your view, what percent of 397 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: the time is the turkey he not interested versus the 398 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 1: turkey's thinking, I don't buy it. Something's up. 399 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 2: It's pretty much he don't trust it. 400 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: Oh you think so? 401 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, because he's he's there's been some association with hearing 402 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 2: a yell, hearing it come from he knows it's on 403 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 2: the ground, he's in the tree. That's always a bad deal. 404 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 2: We never we never say nothing to his feet on 405 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,959 Speaker 2: the ground. But I have a friend who had one 406 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 2: of those turkeys and one of what turkeys, one of 407 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 2: them turkeys you couldn't kill that he would he gobbled, 408 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 2: you'd yep him, and he wouldn't come. He'd always go 409 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 2: the other way, and he didn't. Eventually, gob will go 410 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 2: in the other way. So he took his son in 411 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 2: there and he said, let's flip a coin, decide who's 412 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 2: gonna yep. And they did and the dad lost. So 413 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 2: they got on both sides of the tree, about one 414 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 2: hundred yards apart from the tree. 415 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: So now they got a twenty six percent chance that 416 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: they do nothing. 417 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 2: They know this turkey, they know he's gonna go. You're 418 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 2: gonna go straight no matter if they knew straight away, 419 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 2: Daddy yelped. Little David's out there with us going up. 420 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 2: Five minutes later, he going. 421 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,439 Speaker 1: So you think that they're like you remember, you know 422 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:24,880 Speaker 1: the great famous Turkey book, tenth Legion. Oh yeah, it's 423 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: like a masterpiece, right, Like, no one will ever write 424 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: a better turkey. 425 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 2: No, nobody's got nobody's got Tom Kelly's brain. He's unbelievable. 426 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't care who what when no one's going 427 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 1: to ever write a better turkey book. OK, if you're 428 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: writing a turkey book, stop that's right. Write a different book, right, 429 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: a beaver book. 430 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 2: I don't know. 431 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:44,679 Speaker 1: Yeah. Tom Kelly has the thing where he has like 432 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: a kid.

I 497 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 3: think I brought up the fun in distress call for 498 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 3: black bears, and I very much of the opinion that 499 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 3: if it's kind of a two sided thing, if you 500 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 3: just want to kill a bear, then you risk use, 501 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 3: you risk not getting a bear by using a fun 502 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 3: and distress call, in my opinion, because small bears will 503 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 3: go the opposite direction. Oh yep, they're like, don't just 504 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 3: not worth the risk, got it. But big bears either 505 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 3: care or they don't care. But they don't leave the 506 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 3: country because they're using a fun industress. 507 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: They just might not. I've watched many of them not 508 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 1: picked their head up right, and then one in ten 509 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 1: goes ballistic. 510 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:34,400 Speaker 3: Yeap goes. 511 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 1: He's gone. 512 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, we should probably. 513 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 4: Make a T shirt out of that, Like, what are 514 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 4: the mathematical odds of a bear coming to your predator call? 515 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 1: If you're close, maybe in his lap. 516 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 2: That's the finest T shirt I've ever seen. 517 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: Well, you want to see something that's going to really 518 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 1: impress you, Yeah, it's outside. Go out that door. Because 519 00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 1: we had different engineers. 520 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 3: Hang tight, ament, boy, it's showing tell day here.

And 595 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 2: he goes, do what? So I went on the internet 596 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 2: and I searched definition of a fishing cork, and after 597 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 2: he left that day, I sent it, sent it to him. 598 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 2: He wouldn't reply. 599 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: I got a couple additional thoughts now that I've read 600 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 1: it more carefully. He's using a stringer combo, stringer fish 601 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: basket combo. He's putting them on a stringer out in 602 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 1: the water, then he's throwing them in a fish basket 603 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 1: when he's back. And he's also fishing for northeast northern, 604 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 1: so he's dealing with some larger fish. He needs to 605 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 1: go with. 606 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 2: An ice chest for the northern for the bigger ones, 607 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 2: keep him, you know, nice and fresh. But the smallment 608 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 2: was keeping in a basket. If you use the stringer, 609 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 2: you're gonna bust their lips, they're gonna break off, or 610 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 2: you put it through the gills, you gotta kill it. 611 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: That's all I was gonna include for him is I 612 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: remember when we were little, we used to use stringers 613 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 1: and we didn't know, so we'd always run it under 614 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: the gill car and you got a bunch of dead fish, 615 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 1: and then later learned to prick them with it. But 616 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 1: you know that's that like we can't for bluegles. That 617 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 1: doesn't really work. 618 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 2: We would put them on stringers, but the last time 619 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 2: my watermoks had wrapped around that stringer I done. 620 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 1: My kid recently, he was down fishing in the creek 621 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: down the road from our house, and they caught some 622 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 1: trout and he had him on a string and then 623 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 1: he looks down there in this big old crayfish messing 624 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: with his trout. So him and his bodies came home 625 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: and they fried their trout up and boiled that little crayfish. 626 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 1: It was a nice grayfish, that nice little. 627 00:31:52,640 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 2: Uh whatever uh fish.

My buddy says, he go, 663 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 1: his dad goes back in there a couple of days later, 664 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 1: and you're sitting there and instilling there. He got it 665 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 1: the bird. Good for you. 666 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 6: But I know this audience member was kind of a 667 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 6: pall that there would be so many dead turkeys just 668 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,879 Speaker 6: pinned to a board, and it was that no one 669 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 6: was really taking the meat out of them. So it 670 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 6: was about salvage laws. I'm wondering how many states have 671 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:26,120 Speaker 6: I don't know. 672 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 1: His final question is my question to the crew is 673 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,880 Speaker 1: what is the best way to get North Carolina to 674 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,879 Speaker 1: create legislation on a salvage law? 675 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, start showing up at your Fishing Game committee meetings 676 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,880 Speaker 3: and introduce it. And then eventually, if you feel like 677 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 3: you're not getting any traction, you can ride into your 678 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:48,760 Speaker 3: state reps and get somebody interested in that, the people 679 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 3: that you need to target in that case, or the 680 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 3: people who sit on the Fishing Game Committee at the 681 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 3: state level. 682 00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 1: I'm a big believer in I love salvage laws.

My friend wants to 811 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 1: tip twenty percent, so nine hundred and twenty dollars plus 812 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:29,399 Speaker 1: two hundred to the cook.

I have two tip recommendations. 822 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:05,200 Speaker 1: Then he goes down with his recommendations. He wants to 823 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:12,239 Speaker 1: split it up.

So if 824 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 1: it's six days of okay, if it's if it's three 825 00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:20,880 Speaker 1: days of turkey, three days of bear, however you slice it. 826 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 1: You take the twenty percent amount and go like, okay, 827 00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 1: you get half of twenty percent, and then the turkey 828 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:34,400 Speaker 1: guide gets half of twenty percent. What would you do 829 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 1: to me? 830 00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 2: It's really simple. Okay, it's a cost of a hunt. 831 00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:40,719 Speaker 2: If the hunt costs you five thousand dollars three days 832 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,760 Speaker 2: or six days, I tip amendment of twenty percent. 833 00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:45,880 Speaker 1: And they can do how they can divide it up 834 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:46,279 Speaker 1: how they. 835 00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 2: Want, how they want. Now, I also tip the cook, 836 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 2: like I just left on from a trip on the 837 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:54,279 Speaker 2: wind River Canyon and I checked in because I wanted 838 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:57,360 Speaker 2: to know kind of what the average that typical tip 839 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,319 Speaker 2: is one hundred dollars per person per day. There's two 840 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:02,520 Speaker 2: people in the boat, two hundred dollars a day for 841 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:06,440 Speaker 2: three days. That's six hundred dollars. Okay, I gave him, 842 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 2: mate hunter. I just think gods, now, if the gods, 843 00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 2: if he's a if he's an sob, he's got a 844 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:17,359 Speaker 2: bad attitude, and every other word out of his mouth 845 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 2: is profanity, which I don't like. 846 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 4: That explains a lot. 847 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,200 Speaker 2: In other words, if you were my guide, you'd get 848 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,440 Speaker 2: zero steven. 849 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 1: You don't want steve guide. 850 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, So anyway, I just I just think twenty 851 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 2: percent for a tip he guided me once. 852 00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:35,319 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's true. 853 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 1: Were you cursing all the time? 854 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 4: Nope, that's good. Maybe maybe under my mustache. Yeah, And 855 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:45,759 Speaker 4: it was a heck of a tip. 856 00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:47,759 Speaker 1: I quit any kind of booze. I'm gonnaquit any kind 857 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 1: of swearing. 858 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:53,680 Speaker 4: Next, there you go, Good luck, tip your guys twenty percent. 859 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 1: So these you guys, the guy that rolled in twenty 860 00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 1: percent of the bill, and then divide it of the guides. 861 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:02,320 Speaker 1: How you think I think that your friend. Thinking that 862 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:05,680 Speaker 1: each guy gets twenty percent is not the way to 863 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 1: think about it. 864 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:06,319 Speaker 2: Yeah. 865 00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:09,440 Speaker 7: If I'm meeting at a restaurant and my server I 866 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 7: get a new server halfway through the meal or whatever, 867 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 7: if someone clocked out, I'm not all of a sudden 868 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 7: tipping forty percent meal. 869 00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:17,160 Speaker 1: That's that's a great way of looking at it. Another 870 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:18,719 Speaker 1: way to look at it. Let's say you're going out 871 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,600 Speaker 1: like we did a guy to hunt one time for 872 00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 1: mule deer with Crooked Sky Outfitters, wonderful guys. But you 873 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:28,320 Speaker 1: might be with Stuart one day, might be with Land 874 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:30,400 Speaker 1: one day. You know what I mean. They might be like, 875 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:32,919 Speaker 1: well today, go with so and so because he wants 876 00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:34,400 Speaker 1: to go up and check. You know, in the end 877 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 1: going like sure, twenty percent of the trip to him, 878 00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:40,120 Speaker 1: twenty percent of the trip to him, twenty percent of 879 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 1: the trip to him. Yeah, it wouldn't be how you'd 880 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:42,520 Speaker 1: look at it. 881 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 2: So we had a lady that cleaned the lodge in 882 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,600 Speaker 2: the room every day. I gave her one hundred dollars 883 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:52,080 Speaker 2: for the three days and which wasn't asked for. And 884 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:55,560 Speaker 2: then the chef was great, he had a great personality 885 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,440 Speaker 2: and he was five star. I gave him six hundred bucks. 886 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,040 Speaker 2: Starting to think of my host this show just right. 887 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:08,000 Speaker 7: To pour him a glass of that will moonshine a couple. 888 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:13,799 Speaker 2: When you go on these trips and these people, I mean, 889 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 2: guiding is a great life. If you don't weaken, it 890 00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:18,560 Speaker 2: can be it can be hard. 891 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,840 Speaker 1: If you don't do what weaken. I don't understand what 892 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 1: you means, even if the guide doesn't. 893 00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:26,359 Speaker 2: If the guide doesn't weaken, oh I see, I mean 894 00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:28,719 Speaker 2: it's hard. I got you and and you know, and 895 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:31,759 Speaker 2: and and they're dealing with some of these guides get 896 00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:35,399 Speaker 2: some pretty bad clients. Oh my gosh, they know it all. 897 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 2: They want to tell you how to hunt. You got 898 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 2: to remember, don't guide the god. You bought a hunt. 899 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:45,239 Speaker 2: You hired a guide, and you got to go with 900 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:48,560 Speaker 2: the flow. Yeah, compliment him and and give him the 901 00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:50,480 Speaker 2: opportunity to do good for you. 902 00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:53,080 Speaker 1: You know, I've been developing a piece of life advice 903 00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 1: that I've been using, and I use it with contractors. Well, 904 00:45:57,640 --> 00:45:59,759 Speaker 1: if if I'm having a problem with like in my 905 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:02,160 Speaker 1: chanical room. I explained this on the show recently. Like 906 00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:04,319 Speaker 1: let's say I'm having we have in floor heating. You 907 00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 1: open my mechanical room up. You can't tell what's going 908 00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,320 Speaker 1: on in there's two companies. It's not like the old days, 909 00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 1: like a pipe coming in, a pipe going out. You 910 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,880 Speaker 1: look at your like, who knows. It's like open up 911 00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:19,040 Speaker 1: a NASK control room. So what I do when I 912 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 1: have a guy over, I don't do that. Well, you know, 913 00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:24,680 Speaker 1: I'm thinking it might be whatever, And you know, and 914 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:26,879 Speaker 1: I tried a couple of things, but you know, I'm 915 00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,640 Speaker 1: too busy fixing other stuff. So I need you to 916 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:31,160 Speaker 1: take a quick look and I'd probably be able to 917 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 1: figure it out. Like I don't do any of that garbage. 918 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 1: I come in and go, man, I'm an idiot. I 919 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:39,960 Speaker 1: don't know anything about I look in here and it's 920 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:45,759 Speaker 1: just I don't get it. That opens up like that 921 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:50,399 Speaker 1: opens up a level of rapport and you you just 922 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 1: just you dispense with all the trying to save face 923 00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: and you just come in and be like, dude, I 924 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:58,719 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know. I don't I don't get it. 925 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:01,680 Speaker 1: I'd love to understand it. I can't understand it. And 926 00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 1: it just creates a different dynamic because a guy's impulse 927 00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:10,640 Speaker 1: is to try to establish his bona fides. Right good. Yeah, 928 00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 1: So Nate Mason, who we worked with recently, went to 929 00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,920 Speaker 1: a dog training thing and he said, the first words 930 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:20,000 Speaker 1: out of my mouth he knows a thing or two. 931 00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:22,040 Speaker 1: The first words out of his mouth, man, I'm an idiot. 932 00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:23,920 Speaker 1: I don't know anything about any of this, he says, 933 00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:27,120 Speaker 1: just completely changed the whole dynamic. People all day trying 934 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:32,080 Speaker 1: to help him out. So he said, like everybody's real 935 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 1: nice to him. He got a lot more for his 936 00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:35,480 Speaker 1: money instead of coming and being like, wow, I've trained 937 00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 1: a few dogs in my day. You know none of that. 938 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:40,440 Speaker 2: It's like a fishing guy. You're hiring a guid. We 939 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:43,400 Speaker 2: were on the wind river. That guy has been fishing 940 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 2: that river every day. He's watching the river change, he's 941 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:50,880 Speaker 2: watching the levels, he's watching the temperature, he's watching different spots. 942 00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:53,920 Speaker 2: He's figuring it out. And so I come in. I'm 943 00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:55,799 Speaker 2: a big fly fisherman. I go all the time. I 944 00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 2: know what I'm doing, and I trust to tell the 945 00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:01,040 Speaker 2: guid what to do. It changed just the dynamics of 946 00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:05,320 Speaker 2: the whole trip. Instead. At first, I said, look, anything 947 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:07,560 Speaker 2: I do, tell me not to if you need to, 948 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:09,280 Speaker 2: and if you need to tell me twice, tell me twice. 949 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:13,040 Speaker 2: God tell me what to do. And I want to 950 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:15,400 Speaker 2: play his game. And he was so much more fun 951 00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:17,839 Speaker 2: and he taught me. I learned stuff that I didn't know. 952 00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:21,080 Speaker 1: Yep. It was great, yeap. 953 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,799 Speaker 2: And then you tip good and you're welcome back. 954 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 1: So do the guides in this room like this. 955 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:34,279 Speaker 4: I love everything. Will saying yeah, I need to know 956 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,600 Speaker 4: more specifics about this bear hunt. Is it a baited 957 00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:39,280 Speaker 4: bear hunt? Is it spot in stock? Are their hounds involved? 958 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:41,879 Speaker 1: Why you want to talk shop about bear hunt. 959 00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:45,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, this isn't enough information here, Okay. 960 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:56,600 Speaker 1: Will I got one more for you? Greay for this guys, No, gents, 961 00:48:57,200 --> 00:49:01,920 Speaker 1: mm hmmm, sorry for the The title is Turkey's versus 962 00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:07,120 Speaker 1: Grouse Mortal enemies, he said, Sorry for the title. I 963 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:09,440 Speaker 1: wanted to grab your attention and all seriousness. However, this 964 00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:11,359 Speaker 1: has been on my mind quite a few years now. 965 00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:14,120 Speaker 1: Maybe you folks have heard of this discussion before, and 966 00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:17,719 Speaker 1: maybe you guys think it's nuts. But I'm telling you 967 00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:20,960 Speaker 1: there's a good amount of Northern Minnesota outdoorsmen who keep 968 00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:24,319 Speaker 1: repeating what I believe to be a rural myth. That 969 00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:29,520 Speaker 1: myth is that turkey's target and kill grouse and grouse 970 00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:35,840 Speaker 1: nests eggs. He says he has had over fifteen people 971 00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:38,240 Speaker 1: tell him that turkeys are killing the grouse. 972 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:46,600 Speaker 3: Are they all from the same family, It's. 973 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:47,880 Speaker 2: A large family. 974 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:52,520 Speaker 5: I don't know about that. 975 00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:55,280 Speaker 7: Did they suspiciously have a freezer full of grouse? 976 00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:57,359 Speaker 2: No? 977 00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:01,480 Speaker 3: I mean, if you watch domestic turkeys, not like in 978 00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:06,120 Speaker 3: your high density facilities, right, but like your normal barnyard, 979 00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:11,360 Speaker 3: I don't know, vanity turkeys, we'll call them scratching around. 980 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:15,280 Speaker 3: I mean they'll get they'll get into anything, curiosity stuff, 981 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 3: and it's not uncommon to like throw eggshells out there 982 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:23,680 Speaker 3: for a little added calcium. 983 00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:26,000 Speaker 1: It's a great point because when I put my compost 984 00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:31,120 Speaker 1: on my garden, the magpies, every bird in town is 985 00:50:31,200 --> 00:50:33,880 Speaker 1: walking around and there picking the eggshells out during nesting season. 986 00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:40,360 Speaker 3: So it wouldn't surprise me if if a handful of 987 00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 3: turkeys take advantage of something like that. But I don't 988 00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:46,440 Speaker 3: think it's going to be a primary food source. 989 00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:46,760 Speaker 6: Or. 990 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 3: It would be. I mean it'd be really interesting, right 991 00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:57,120 Speaker 3: if they're there, it'd be like a fisheries biology study. Right, 992 00:50:57,200 --> 00:51:01,279 Speaker 3: It's like how much mass can that landscape port? And 993 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:07,000 Speaker 3: by killing off the grouse, the turkey population will grow somehow, right. 994 00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:12,920 Speaker 2: I say, look at the science, somebody, I don't know, 995 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:15,759 Speaker 2: it's look at the size. I mean, what's the what's 996 00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:21,400 Speaker 2: the turkey biologist name from Georgia Chamberlain. Yeah, so if 997 00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:23,520 Speaker 2: I'm I'm mistaken, If I remember right, he's the one 998 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,760 Speaker 2: who figured out that the great horned isle was killing 999 00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:28,960 Speaker 2: the guy was knocking them off the limb and flying 1000 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:31,239 Speaker 2: down and eating their head and all the entest from 1001 00:51:31,280 --> 00:51:34,879 Speaker 2: the neck. And that's it. But he documented it. He 1002 00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:39,680 Speaker 2: figured it out and documented it scientifically. So that's what 1003 00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:40,479 Speaker 2: needs to be done. 1004 00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:43,160 Speaker 3: I don't think you don't understand how the game of 1005 00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:44,120 Speaker 3: BS has played. 1006 00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:52,760 Speaker 2: I do. I do, and I'm telling you I'm using 1007 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:55,520 Speaker 2: the side I'm going to side. 1008 00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:58,120 Speaker 1: Well, there is a there is a there is a 1009 00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:00,839 Speaker 1: parallel because we had a woman the show. I think 1010 00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:02,959 Speaker 1: she's sitting right where you're sitting right now, and they 1011 00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:11,200 Speaker 1: do cameras on Turkey nests, right, So all you gotta 1012 00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:13,200 Speaker 1: do is you gotta somehow. It's probably not hard to do. 1013 00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:15,360 Speaker 1: You can design this though. You got to catch grouse, 1014 00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:18,360 Speaker 1: find the females, put a marker on them at the 1015 00:52:18,400 --> 00:52:20,719 Speaker 1: right time of year, find when they're hanging out. Go there. 1016 00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:24,839 Speaker 1: She was concerned that, she explained us. She was concerned 1017 00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:28,719 Speaker 1: that that what's that thing in astronomy, like just you 1018 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:29,960 Speaker 1: watching it changes it. 1019 00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:36,480 Speaker 2: M oh Hesberg Heisenberg's principle. 1020 00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:39,920 Speaker 1: There's a bit of Heisenberg's principle at play because she 1021 00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:44,520 Speaker 1: feels that your she feels that your presence at the 1022 00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:50,399 Speaker 1: nest changes a dynamic. And she has noticed that when 1023 00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:52,719 Speaker 1: she goes to a nest site and does the work 1024 00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:55,960 Speaker 1: and sets the camera up. She feels that very quickly 1025 00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:59,520 Speaker 1: thereafter there's a bobcat present in a much higher likelihood 1026 00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 1: than a bob cat will be present right away then later, 1027 00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:06,960 Speaker 1: And somehow that activity and human order and messing around 1028 00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 1: is somehow attractive. Wow, she was speculating. She doesn't know, 1029 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:12,920 Speaker 1: but she has it. She's like, why is it that 1030 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:15,560 Speaker 1: we place a camera and so quickly there's a bobcat 1031 00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:21,480 Speaker 1: there and then no bobcats? You know who knows a 1032 00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:26,560 Speaker 1: studio Miriams, Kansas. Okay, so whatever that would be in 1033 00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:30,359 Speaker 1: h Rio's or Eastern studying that but yeah, it would 1034 00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:32,359 Speaker 1: be an interesting thing. But I'll tell you one thing 1035 00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:35,080 Speaker 1: that changed my life and how I view wildlife is 1036 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:37,359 Speaker 1: you remember long it must maybe it was a decade ago. 1037 00:53:37,520 --> 00:53:41,280 Speaker 1: Someone had a trail cam image of a of a 1038 00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:45,040 Speaker 1: white tail deer that walked up to a robin nest 1039 00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:48,759 Speaker 1: and ate some of the chicks. And I'm like, hey, 1040 00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:54,000 Speaker 1: all bets are off, Like, all bets are off. You know. 1041 00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 3: I can't remember where we were, but somebody was, oh, 1042 00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:03,200 Speaker 3: it was in Wyoming the other day. But there's a 1043 00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:06,960 Speaker 3: bunch of town pheasants basically in all the green areas. 1044 00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:10,959 Speaker 3: And this friend of mine. His folks had just moved 1045 00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:14,040 Speaker 3: to town, and it asked him, is there anything they 1046 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:17,920 Speaker 3: can do about these pheasants because they're they're cackling so 1047 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:19,120 Speaker 3: early in the morning. 1048 00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:21,359 Speaker 1: Get up earlier and go to work. 1049 00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:25,680 Speaker 3: And yeah, maybe that's what that white tailed deer was 1050 00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:28,200 Speaker 3: doing in the morning. 1051 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:32,600 Speaker 2: You know. 1052 00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:35,040 Speaker 1: I watched we were watching, me and my boy were 1053 00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:37,640 Speaker 1: watching some turkeys, you know, as turkeys off and are 1054 00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:40,759 Speaker 1: on the wrong side of a fence, just watching them 1055 00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:42,400 Speaker 1: and like trying to call him into a place they 1056 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:44,759 Speaker 1: never want to go in a millionaires, you know. And 1057 00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:48,120 Speaker 1: like this bird, we watched him for an hour, you know, 1058 00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:50,399 Speaker 1: and he never made a peep. And then a while later, 1059 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:56,360 Speaker 1: this pheasant gets up and he's doing those low flying, 1060 00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:59,800 Speaker 1: like flying cackles and gets over that turkey's head and 1061 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:05,720 Speaker 1: hit it. Hit like a good shot, gobble off that rooster. 1062 00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:12,359 Speaker 1: All right, Well tell us about the gun auction. Well 1063 00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:16,319 Speaker 1: these are what if people want to see what they 1064 00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 1: look like?

So I've always loved my first my first gun 1074 00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:48,160 Speaker 2: ever shot was the Fox Model B side by side, 1075 00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:51,080 Speaker 2: double trigger. My dad when he got out of World 1076 00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:53,920 Speaker 2: War two, he was alive, He got on went to 1077 00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:56,399 Speaker 2: the hardware store. He was gonna go hunting, and bought 1078 00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:59,879 Speaker 2: him that gun for ten dollars used and it's now 1079 00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:03,479 Speaker 2: one of my favorite guns. And so he then bought 1080 00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:06,200 Speaker 2: some bamboo fly rods, and uh, that's kind of the 1081 00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:09,720 Speaker 2: story of my daddy after World War two and hunting 1082 00:56:09,760 --> 00:56:13,080 Speaker 2: and fishing. But as time went on, didn't have any money, 1083 00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,520 Speaker 2: and I just loved the marriage of metal the wood. 1084 00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:17,799 Speaker 1: And Uh. 1085 00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:22,280 Speaker 2: I went hunting with a guy and he had hollering 1086 00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:25,880 Speaker 2: and holloing hammer guns and he handed me one and 1087 00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:28,440 Speaker 2: we went hunting. And it's just so much fun to 1088 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,840 Speaker 2: cock those hammers. So before they figured out how to 1089 00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:35,600 Speaker 2: put the hammers internally and the cock them when you 1090 00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:38,239 Speaker 2: open when the gun opened, cock them, the hammers were 1091 00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:42,000 Speaker 2: on the outside and so you cocked the hammers and 1092 00:56:42,080 --> 00:56:45,520 Speaker 2: you had a safety and just like any normal gun. 1093 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:48,080 Speaker 2: So the hammers are cought, and it was just so 1094 00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:51,120 Speaker 2: much fun shooting it. You don't see the hammers when 1095 00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:54,759 Speaker 2: you shoulder the gun when you mount it. And so 1096 00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:57,760 Speaker 2: the first gun that I ordered was a sixteen Gage 1097 00:56:58,120 --> 00:57:01,040 Speaker 2: and Purdy was happened to be in town. I asked 1098 00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:02,800 Speaker 2: them to meet with me. That took me to dinner, 1099 00:57:03,239 --> 00:57:04,880 Speaker 2: thought them. I wanted to order the sixteen, and I 1100 00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:08,200 Speaker 2: wanted to reserve the four ten, the twenty eight, the 1101 00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:11,720 Speaker 2: twenty having the sixteen made and the twelve the serial 1102 00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:13,920 Speaker 2: number consecutive, because I was going to order all of 1103 00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:14,720 Speaker 2: them over time. 1104 00:57:15,360 --> 00:57:18,440 Speaker 1: But how would the serial number be consecutive. They've reserved them. 1105 00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:21,000 Speaker 1: Oh I got okay, yeah, so they reserved the serial numbers. 1106 00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 1: I see, so those were gonna be my serial numbers 1107 00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:26,120 Speaker 1: when I ordered the guns. So ordered the sixteen and 1108 00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:28,880 Speaker 1: that was the sixteen Gays like my daddy's fox. 1109 00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:32,160 Speaker 2: And so I just loved hunting with a gun. I 1110 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:36,680 Speaker 2: kill a white tail with it, turkey squirrels, killing the 1111 00:57:36,720 --> 00:57:39,000 Speaker 2: limit of gray squirrels. That holding up a two hundred 1112 00:57:39,040 --> 00:57:44,200 Speaker 2: thousand dollars shotgun. It's kind of fun. And that's one 1113 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:48,040 Speaker 2: of my favorite pictures. But anyway, so I started ordering 1114 00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:49,840 Speaker 2: the other guns. But they told me, they said, will, 1115 00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:55,520 Speaker 2: we don't have plans to ever make a four ten 1116 00:57:55,720 --> 00:57:58,280 Speaker 2: or a twenty eight and I hammerd gun with ejectors. 1117 00:57:58,520 --> 00:58:00,000 Speaker 2: We just don't even have the plans for it. 1118 00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:00,560 Speaker 1: Mm hmm. 1119 00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:03,880 Speaker 2: And I said, well, start working, because I'm going to 1120 00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:06,960 Speaker 2: order them. If you want the money, yeah, I'm going 1121 00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:11,160 Speaker 2: to order them. And so over time they finally decided 1122 00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:13,280 Speaker 2: to build the four ten. They built ten. They only 1123 00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:17,840 Speaker 2: built ten, huh Gordy's in Houston, about five of them. 1124 00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:20,960 Speaker 2: Four of them were bought at the SCI Show, and 1125 00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:23,720 Speaker 2: one of them's mine. Mine's the only one that's different. 1126 00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:27,960 Speaker 2: I have modified beavertail and mine have a special bird 1127 00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:31,880 Speaker 2: engraved on each gun. And so I ordered that gun, 1128 00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:33,600 Speaker 2: and then I ordered the twenty eight. The twenty eight 1129 00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:36,959 Speaker 2: is the only twenty eight in existence. It's a twenty 1130 00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:39,840 Speaker 2: eight gauge Hamry gun with ejectors. It's it's my favorite 1131 00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:44,560 Speaker 2: upland gun. And the four to ten costs two hundred 1132 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:50,800 Speaker 2: and ninety five thousand dollars. God, and it is there, 1133 00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:54,800 Speaker 2: and they're beautiful and they're exquisite and when you close them, 1134 00:58:55,600 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 2: they go because they're they're so tight. I was in 1135 00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:05,680 Speaker 2: Arizona hunting with my twenty eight, and I don't know how, 1136 00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:09,800 Speaker 2: all of a sudden shot reloading the gun and it 1137 00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:12,200 Speaker 2: wouldn't close, and I went, oh my gosh, what is 1138 00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:15,080 Speaker 2: going on? The gun would not close, and I didn't 1139 00:59:15,080 --> 00:59:17,880 Speaker 2: want to force it. So I'm looking at it. A 1140 00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:20,280 Speaker 2: piece of sand had gotten into the breach. 1141 00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:22,400 Speaker 1: That's how tight it is. 1142 00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:25,320 Speaker 2: That's how tight it is. I blew out, that's saying. 1143 00:59:30,960 --> 00:59:34,560 Speaker 2: And so I just the guns are just a joy 1144 00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:36,640 Speaker 2: to shoot, there's a joy to handle. Of course they're 1145 00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:39,720 Speaker 2: all fit to me, you know, made measure much for me. 1146 00:59:41,480 --> 00:59:45,440 Speaker 2: But when we when we did the initial gathering of information, 1147 00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:50,200 Speaker 2: all these conservation groups, the Congression of Sportsman's Foundation du 1148 00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:54,400 Speaker 2: rm F, NWTF and Coiling Pheasants came to my home 1149 00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:57,400 Speaker 2: in Mississippi and we took them out to a real 1150 00:59:57,520 --> 01:00:00,840 Speaker 2: nice sporting range that have atlease h l i Ce. 1151 01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:03,680 Speaker 2: Some people call them zz bird targets there. 1152 01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:06,960 Speaker 1: I'm not tracking what you mean by that. 1153 01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:11,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, Haalise is a as as a target with two 1154 01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:13,960 Speaker 2: fan blades on it and so it's out in a 1155 01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:18,240 Speaker 2: box and you.

And so when you say pull, one 1159 01:00:29,160 --> 01:00:30,560 Speaker 2: of those is going to go and you don't know. 1160 01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:30,920 Speaker 5: What you want? 1161 01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:34,280 Speaker 1: I got you and one it was gonna pigeons. Clay 1162 01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:36,120 Speaker 1: pigeon is going to drop into one of those fans 1163 01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:36,800 Speaker 1: and spit it out. 1164 01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:39,120 Speaker 2: But it's already there. It's not a clay pigeon. It's 1165 01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:42,840 Speaker 2: a plastic pigeon. It's a plastic clayton and it's made 1166 01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:45,920 Speaker 2: do mimic box pigeon shooting, which started in Europe when 1167 01:00:45,920 --> 01:00:47,840 Speaker 2: they used to that was the big shooting event. 1168 01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:51,520 Speaker 1: I'm back to not understanding what's it called healase. 1169 01:00:51,400 --> 01:00:53,800 Speaker 2: H E L I c E or zz bird. 1170 01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:55,480 Speaker 1: Is it dumb that I don't know this? No? 1171 01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:57,200 Speaker 2: Okay, A lot of people don't know about it, okay, 1172 01:00:57,240 --> 01:01:00,560 Speaker 2: I mean police. It's a specialized discipline of shooting and 1173 01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:03,680 Speaker 2: it's a big competition. The world championship this year is 1174 01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:07,600 Speaker 2: in Italy. Last year I think it was in Cyprus, Greece. 1175 01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:11,439 Speaker 2: So anyway, you say pull and one of those five 1176 01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:15,200 Speaker 2: targets is going to go. It's gonna that. You don't 1177 01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:17,200 Speaker 2: know whether it's going to go straight up the fan. 1178 01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:21,560 Speaker 2: The machine is oscillating, so they might go straight up, 1179 01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:24,320 Speaker 2: straight away, straight left, straight right. It's crazy what it 1180 01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:27,080 Speaker 2: can do. And so you're sitting there ready and your 1181 01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:29,880 Speaker 2: eyes have to be blended over the five targets. So 1182 01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:31,280 Speaker 2: when one of them goes, you got to go to 1183 01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:34,200 Speaker 2: it and kill it. So we lined up all five 1184 01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:38,280 Speaker 2: of the conservation group four, ten, twenty eight, twenty sixteen, 1185 01:01:38,320 --> 01:01:42,160 Speaker 2: and twelve, and we made all the targets go one 1186 01:01:42,160 --> 01:01:45,400 Speaker 2: at a time, one, two, three, four or five. Nobody 1187 01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:48,480 Speaker 2: missed and it was just beautiful, really, yeah, seeing everybody 1188 01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:53,680 Speaker 2: shoot those guns and enjoy them. And so that was 1189 01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:56,000 Speaker 2: kind of one of the scenes. You'll you probably can 1190 01:01:56,080 --> 01:01:59,160 Speaker 2: see that on that The Truth About Conservation site. Probably 1191 01:01:59,160 --> 01:02:01,880 Speaker 2: that's probably a video of that on there. God, but 1192 01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:06,080 Speaker 2: the whole effort here was to engage these conservation groups. 1193 01:02:06,120 --> 01:02:08,880 Speaker 1: Well you got back up, I'm not done hearing about 1194 01:02:08,920 --> 01:02:12,200 Speaker 1: the whole thing. When you were accumulating them, were you 1195 01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:14,480 Speaker 1: thinking to yourself and someday I'll give them all the way. 1196 01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:19,560 Speaker 2: I didn't know what I was going to do I 1197 01:02:19,600 --> 01:02:22,280 Speaker 2: felt like I could find some way to help raise 1198 01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:26,680 Speaker 2: money for the hunting and fishing community. I just didn't 1199 01:02:26,680 --> 01:02:29,800 Speaker 2: know what it was going to be. And so as 1200 01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:32,320 Speaker 2: I would attend the decks a limited convention or the 1201 01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:37,120 Speaker 2: National Wald Turkey Federation convention, I would find the philanthropy 1202 01:02:37,560 --> 01:02:40,680 Speaker 2: organized people who accept money and all that kind of stuff, 1203 01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:42,240 Speaker 2: and I say, look, I got these set of guns. 1204 01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:44,520 Speaker 2: I would like to give them away to conservation. I'm 1205 01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:46,240 Speaker 2: trying to figure out how to do that, and I 1206 01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:48,640 Speaker 2: want these groups to share in the money. These are 1207 01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:51,160 Speaker 2: people who've been a part of my life. The RMF 1208 01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:53,920 Speaker 2: is such an incredible organization and it's done so much 1209 01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:57,400 Speaker 2: for my life. And the National Wild Ticket Federation and 1210 01:02:57,520 --> 01:03:00,200 Speaker 2: Ducks and Limit and quail and pheasants, I mean, they 1211 01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:04,960 Speaker 2: are just incredible organizations. And the Congressional Sportsmans Foundations who 1212 01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:07,800 Speaker 2: protects our hunting and fishing and trapping rights at the local, 1213 01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:10,760 Speaker 2: state and federal level. I mean, how can I do 1214 01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:14,120 Speaker 2: something to give back and thank them for what they've 1215 01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:18,120 Speaker 2: done to help protect those rights and to help grow 1216 01:03:18,560 --> 01:03:21,280 Speaker 2: other people being associated with hunting and fishing and trapping. 1217 01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:26,280 Speaker 2: And so one day this Congressional Sportsment Foundation call me, 1218 01:03:26,320 --> 01:03:28,800 Speaker 2: and they said, look, we got this campaign. It's not 1219 01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:33,760 Speaker 2: Hunt Fish listen, it's I hunt, I Fish, I vote go. 1220 01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:35,960 Speaker 2: And they said, we want you to be a part 1221 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:38,280 Speaker 2: of this campaign. I said, look, that's fine, I'll do that. 1222 01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:38,760 Speaker 2: I'll do it here. 1223 01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:39,280 Speaker 1: We mean too. 1224 01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:41,840 Speaker 2: I'm not really interested in being a poster boy, but 1225 01:03:41,880 --> 01:03:45,960 Speaker 2: I will. I said, but I've got these guns. How 1226 01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:49,720 Speaker 2: can we leverage these guns? How can I cause a 1227 01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:53,640 Speaker 2: ripple effect? How can I throw a little pebble into 1228 01:03:53,720 --> 01:03:56,360 Speaker 2: a perfectly still body of water and have it become 1229 01:03:56,360 --> 01:04:00,720 Speaker 2: a wave? Those are my words. And I was talking 1230 01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:03,400 Speaker 2: to a lady named Corin Johann. She was the director 1231 01:04:03,440 --> 01:04:06,680 Speaker 2: of marketing. She's no longer there, but she says, let's 1232 01:04:06,680 --> 01:04:09,480 Speaker 2: think about it. Let me talk to Jeff Crane, the 1233 01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:12,919 Speaker 2: head of Congressional Sportsman, and to Kevin Perry, and listen, 1234 01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:13,960 Speaker 2: let me see what do we can come with her. 1235 01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:16,800 Speaker 2: She calls him back. She goes, so you want to 1236 01:04:16,840 --> 01:04:20,320 Speaker 2: give us these guns, and then we think we can 1237 01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:24,800 Speaker 2: auction them and all the money and the proceeds, and 1238 01:04:25,320 --> 01:04:27,440 Speaker 2: well you'll have to have them a praise and anything 1239 01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:31,720 Speaker 2: over a praise value will can be written off because 1240 01:04:31,760 --> 01:04:33,320 Speaker 2: they're going to go to all five O one see 1241 01:04:33,320 --> 01:04:36,720 Speaker 2: for the public companies, and so that's how all came about. 1242 01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:40,520 Speaker 2: And that's what we did. We created the campaign articles 1243 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:44,800 Speaker 2: in all these magazines alerting everybody so some hopefully some 1244 01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:49,280 Speaker 2: guy that's got a real niceness day who wants to 1245 01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:52,240 Speaker 2: give back to conservation will pay more than their than 1246 01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:53,320 Speaker 2: they're a praise value. 1247 01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:56,600 Speaker 1: Are you guys being public about the praise value? Is 1248 01:04:56,640 --> 01:04:57,560 Speaker 1: there a minimum? 1249 01:04:58,520 --> 01:05:02,040 Speaker 2: I don't know how. Buck Island is the auction house. 1250 01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:05,600 Speaker 2: They auction off the finest guns in the world, and 1251 01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:07,320 Speaker 2: we chose them because there is a. 1252 01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:09,400 Speaker 1: That's where we bought that punk gun from. 1253 01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:09,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1254 01:05:10,680 --> 01:05:13,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, we met those guys at at pheasant Fest this 1255 01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:18,640 Speaker 3: year and are quail classic and we ran through the hole. 1256 01:05:18,480 --> 01:05:21,080 Speaker 2: In Kansas City. Yeah, did you see the primost guns? 1257 01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:23,720 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, oh yeah, I was telling you earlier. I 1258 01:05:24,680 --> 01:05:27,920 Speaker 3: personally just enjoy the fact that the sixteen gauge is 1259 01:05:28,560 --> 01:05:29,640 Speaker 3: noticeably well worn. 1260 01:05:32,600 --> 01:05:37,120 Speaker 2: I'm guilty. Yeah, yeah, the sixth thing has a little 1261 01:05:37,160 --> 01:05:39,000 Speaker 2: more wear on it than the other ones. 1262 01:05:39,160 --> 01:05:43,160 Speaker 3: Well, to me, it makes it all more valuable because you're, 1263 01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:45,840 Speaker 3: you know, just like anything in these days, if you 1264 01:05:45,880 --> 01:05:49,120 Speaker 3: can buy whatever, but if that thing has a story. Yeah, 1265 01:05:49,640 --> 01:05:52,560 Speaker 3: it can be a lot more valuable. Yeah, And and 1266 01:05:52,640 --> 01:05:54,960 Speaker 3: so the whole set kind of has that like it 1267 01:05:55,040 --> 01:05:59,800 Speaker 3: is like fine fine stuff. Anybody can see that. You're like, 1268 01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:04,400 Speaker 3: this is something that is set apart by craftsmanship. Yeah, 1269 01:06:04,480 --> 01:06:07,160 Speaker 3: and there's there's a couple of those guns don't look 1270 01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:09,760 Speaker 3: like they've been touched at all, but I'm sure they've 1271 01:06:09,800 --> 01:06:14,800 Speaker 3: been cleaned. And yeah, but the sixteen has been because 1272 01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,200 Speaker 3: I think you put extra swivel studs in there and 1273 01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:18,160 Speaker 3: stuff like that. 1274 01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:21,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I had swivel studs put on the sixteen 1275 01:06:22,160 --> 01:06:24,960 Speaker 2: because it's my duck gun. When I'm putting out the decoys, 1276 01:06:24,960 --> 01:06:27,160 Speaker 2: I slinging on my shoulder a little, did I know, 1277 01:06:27,200 --> 01:06:30,160 Speaker 2: I'm scratching it and back there was suspender spender buckles 1278 01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:33,600 Speaker 2: and yeah, you know, anyway, I had to have it, 1279 01:06:33,720 --> 01:06:34,920 Speaker 2: you know, kind of touched up. 1280 01:06:36,600 --> 01:06:38,200 Speaker 3: But yeah, the Rock Island folks, so they have a 1281 01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:41,320 Speaker 3: whole Uh, it's online. I'm sure I haven't looked at 1282 01:06:41,320 --> 01:06:43,080 Speaker 3: it online, but I have a big catalog in the 1283 01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:45,240 Speaker 3: whole collection, and. 1284 01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:45,479 Speaker 5: And there is. 1285 01:06:47,760 --> 01:06:49,760 Speaker 3: We should look it up right now. But there is 1286 01:06:49,800 --> 01:06:52,680 Speaker 3: an appraisal price that has been posted. 1287 01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:54,760 Speaker 2: So the gun the guns cost about a million one 1288 01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:57,919 Speaker 2: and they have praised for eight hundred because they are 1289 01:06:58,000 --> 01:07:02,160 Speaker 2: they are used. Oh I see, anything anything that's paid 1290 01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:04,920 Speaker 2: over the a praise value can be written off. 1291 01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:08,240 Speaker 3: Right, But those guns, no matter who they belong to, 1292 01:07:08,320 --> 01:07:10,360 Speaker 3: typically go for over a praise value. 1293 01:07:10,600 --> 01:07:10,920 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1294 01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:13,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, those those parties do. I mean they're a major. 1295 01:07:13,920 --> 01:07:16,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. But there will never ever be another set. So 1296 01:07:17,400 --> 01:07:20,800 Speaker 2: Rock Island went to London and interviewed Nick Carlo, who 1297 01:07:20,840 --> 01:07:24,000 Speaker 2: is the curator of the London Guns World, and he 1298 01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:26,520 Speaker 2: sits right there and says, this will never ever be 1299 01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:30,040 Speaker 2: never been done and will never be done not again. Yeah, 1300 01:07:30,080 --> 01:07:31,400 Speaker 2: one of a kind one up again. 1301 01:07:32,040 --> 01:07:32,360 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1302 01:07:32,400 --> 01:07:36,920 Speaker 2: So anyway, so you know, you you go and you 1303 01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:40,840 Speaker 2: think about what what somebody can do. So what I 1304 01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:43,440 Speaker 2: want is for other people also to think. Other people 1305 01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:45,360 Speaker 2: have things that they've acquired in life. 1306 01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:48,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, that are valuable. I'm touching one right here, buddy. 1307 01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:55,160 Speaker 2: Nobody want Nobody wants your cash or moonshine.

Lastly, Steward Link. I hadn't 1372 01:11:36,040 --> 01:11:36,599 Speaker 1: heard about this. 1373 01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:41,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. So steward Link is stewardlink dot com. It is 1374 01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:49,519 Speaker 2: a group of tremendous adronomist forsters, people that have all 1375 01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:53,640 Speaker 2: the degrees and all the certifications for writing conservation programs. 1376 01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:59,320 Speaker 2: A lot of these people are former National Resource Conservation 1377 01:11:59,400 --> 01:12:02,640 Speaker 2: Service in ours part of the US Department of Agriculture 1378 01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:09,400 Speaker 2: office that have come together. Just like a CPA represents 1379 01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:13,320 Speaker 2: you to the irs, the people at stewart Link represent 1380 01:12:13,479 --> 01:12:15,280 Speaker 2: the steward of the land, the person who owns the 1381 01:12:15,360 --> 01:12:17,559 Speaker 2: land in pharmacy or the person who leases in the farming. 1382 01:12:17,600 --> 01:12:21,439 Speaker 2: They're the steward that ever controls the land and they 1383 01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:27,759 Speaker 2: represent them and help them access the government programs, which. 1384 01:12:27,600 --> 01:12:31,120 Speaker 1: Is probably like a byzantine structure that's hard to navigate. 1385 01:12:30,840 --> 01:12:33,960 Speaker 2: And there's all kinds of issues with it. Everything's ranked. 1386 01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:37,559 Speaker 2: So when you the Contravation Stewardship Program CSP program, If 1387 01:12:37,560 --> 01:12:41,040 Speaker 2: you apply for the for a Contravation Stewardship program and 1388 01:12:41,280 --> 01:12:44,439 Speaker 2: you apply, everybody in here applies.

But I hired Stewart Link, and 1392 01:12:55,520 --> 01:12:59,040 Speaker 2: Stewart Link knew that if they would write certain plans. 1393 01:12:59,120 --> 01:13:05,479 Speaker 2: These are these activity plans, Conservation Activity Plans, Conservation Activity 1394 01:13:05,520 --> 01:13:08,400 Speaker 2: c AP CAT plan.

And I had all these plans written and 1401 01:13:32,320 --> 01:13:35,600 Speaker 2: didn't cost me a penny, and that's part of my application. 1402 01:13:35,880 --> 01:13:38,320 Speaker 2: And I ranked the highs and I got the forward 1403 01:13:38,320 --> 01:13:39,360 Speaker 2: one thousand dollars. 1404 01:13:41,840 --> 01:13:46,000 Speaker 3: I mean, a big, big problem, right is you have producers, farmers, 1405 01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:50,320 Speaker 3: ranchers that are working sixteen hour days and then in 1406 01:13:50,439 --> 01:13:54,720 Speaker 3: order to understand this stuff apply for it, have the 1407 01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:56,439 Speaker 3: back and forth that takes a hell of a lot 1408 01:13:56,439 --> 01:14:00,000 Speaker 3: of time to at the back end of that day. Yeah, 1409 01:14:00,120 --> 01:14:03,439 Speaker 3: and there's huge, huge bottlenecks in these systems. 1410 01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:05,680 Speaker 2: And the n r CS employees there's there's right here 1411 01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:07,720 Speaker 2: on Main Street and both of them, there's in our 1412 01:14:07,760 --> 01:14:11,120 Speaker 2: CS office. Those people are great, but there's only so 1413 01:14:11,200 --> 01:14:14,120 Speaker 2: many hours in the day, and you know, and there's 1414 01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:18,960 Speaker 2: so many there's these plans. Mississippi, because we're in Mississippi's 1415 01:14:18,960 --> 01:14:23,640 Speaker 2: where we started. It's number one in CSP, it's the 1416 01:14:23,760 --> 01:14:27,120 Speaker 2: number one state in all the country. We went to California, 1417 01:14:27,400 --> 01:14:31,400 Speaker 2: the whole state of California had only four CSP prands 1418 01:14:32,080 --> 01:14:33,480 Speaker 2: that have ever been approved. 1419 01:14:33,720 --> 01:14:34,000 Speaker 1: MM. 1420 01:14:35,280 --> 01:14:37,880 Speaker 2: So now we're going to New We're in where New York, 1421 01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:41,840 Speaker 2: Indiana Ohio.

Oh yeah, yeah, okay, yeah, 1489 01:18:14,600 --> 01:18:15,960 Speaker 1: because that was part of implementation. 1490 01:18:16,120 --> 01:18:18,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's part of it.

You've got to spend the money in 1495 01:18:29,160 --> 01:18:29,759 Speaker 2: the right place. 1496 01:18:31,160 --> 01:18:34,200 Speaker 1: You talk about like implementation.

They had 1500 01:18:44,439 --> 01:18:48,599 Speaker 1: a deer blind set on a hay wagon and one 1501 01:18:48,680 --> 01:18:52,280 Speaker 1: day he was told, hey, you got farm equipment on 1502 01:18:52,400 --> 01:18:56,000 Speaker 1: the CRP. He's like, no, we don't. He realized it 1503 01:18:56,040 --> 01:18:59,800 Speaker 1: was a blind on a hay wagon and they were 1504 01:18:59,840 --> 01:19:01,960 Speaker 1: just look when they do they like drive by and 1505 01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:07,679 Speaker 1: look and he's like, oh, wow, you're right.

You've got to do It's like dudes 1507 01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:14,240 Speaker 1: come by and they like, see what's going on that 1508 01:19:15,120 --> 01:19:16,320 Speaker 1: you can get You can get dinged. 1509 01:19:17,520 --> 01:19:18,880 Speaker 2: You got to do what you're supposed to do to 1510 01:19:18,880 --> 01:19:22,479 Speaker 2: implement the program properly, to put conservation on the ground. 1511 01:19:23,080 --> 01:19:26,559 Speaker 2: Everything flows downstream. If we use less fertilizer, could we 1512 01:19:26,960 --> 01:19:30,639 Speaker 2: variable rate it rather than just broadcasting everywhere, then we're 1513 01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:36,679 Speaker 2: sending less nitrogen, less less nutrients downstream, which over blooms 1514 01:19:36,680 --> 01:19:39,599 Speaker 2: stuff and screws up the creeks.
