<v Speaker 1>E dot com. Everybody, here's a quick Camo news flash

0:00:42.960 --> 0:00:46.040
<v Speaker 1>which Phil's just gonna jam into the episode. Camo's Phil's

0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:48.800
<v Speaker 1>favorite subject. People don't realize that, so he's probably gonna

0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:51.880
<v Speaker 1>want to jam this in right up top. On social media,

0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:54.800
<v Speaker 1>you might have been seeing lately that me and some

0:00:54.840 --> 0:00:56.639
<v Speaker 1>of the other guys that hunt with have I've been

0:00:56.680 --> 0:00:59.840
<v Speaker 1>working on testing a new camouflage pattern. And because of

0:00:59.840 --> 0:01:02.040
<v Speaker 1>all kinds of stuff with how things go and you're

0:01:02.080 --> 0:01:05.640
<v Speaker 1>developing an idea and working on it, people will ask

0:01:05.680 --> 0:01:07.399
<v Speaker 1>about it. They'll be like, oh, hey, what's that new

0:01:07.440 --> 0:01:09.360
<v Speaker 1>camo and is this going to do that and this

0:01:09.400 --> 0:01:12.520
<v Speaker 1>and that, and we just couldn't talk about it. I'm

0:01:12.520 --> 0:01:14.040
<v Speaker 1>not trying to see them all cryptic. We just couldn't

0:01:14.040 --> 0:01:16.200
<v Speaker 1>talk about it because we're still you know, working on

0:01:16.319 --> 0:01:18.880
<v Speaker 1>and testing and developing the idea. Anyways, now I can

0:01:18.920 --> 0:01:20.960
<v Speaker 1>finally explain it because so many people have asked about it.

0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:25.000
<v Speaker 1>It's called Serka coming out from first Light, and it

0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:30.760
<v Speaker 1>is the ultimate Western big game Camo pattern for you,

0:01:30.760 --> 0:01:34.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, dedicated Western being Gabe hunters. So if you

0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:37.000
<v Speaker 1>think back on the history of Camo, well, not really

0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:39.959
<v Speaker 1>the deep history, the recent history of Camo, Okay, you

0:01:40.000 --> 0:01:44.039
<v Speaker 1>have all these conventional mimicry patterns which attempt to make

0:01:44.120 --> 0:01:46.440
<v Speaker 1>the where it look like you're part of the environment.

0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:48.600
<v Speaker 1>I think back to the old days when like Camo

0:01:48.600 --> 0:01:50.960
<v Speaker 1>would be like sticks or leaves, you know, and you

0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:52.600
<v Speaker 1>look good to the human eye on the shelf because

0:01:52.600 --> 0:01:57.080
<v Speaker 1>you're thinking, what's more natural than a stick. However, when

0:01:57.120 --> 0:02:00.600
<v Speaker 1>you view that stuff at any realistic distance, those overly

0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:05.800
<v Speaker 1>complex patterns, they just solidify into a into a coherent shape, okay,

0:02:05.840 --> 0:02:08.480
<v Speaker 1>which just makes you more obvious to game. Because you

0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:10.440
<v Speaker 1>look at it up close, you think it looks like sticks.

0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:12.240
<v Speaker 1>But you get any distance away and it looks like

0:02:12.280 --> 0:02:15.560
<v Speaker 1>a huge you just look like a dark human shape blob.

0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:18.520
<v Speaker 1>So you're thinking it's sweet but it's it's not how

0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:20.320
<v Speaker 1>it works. Like a deer doesn't look at you and

0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:22.840
<v Speaker 1>be like, oh, a big pile of sticks and leaves

0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:26.440
<v Speaker 1>over there, standing out weirdly from its surrounding environment. Right, well,

0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:30.079
<v Speaker 1>Sarica uses it's gonna sound fancy, but an optic field

0:02:30.120 --> 0:02:35.240
<v Speaker 1>disruption to maximize concealment. It seems counterintuitive, the idea of it,

0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:38.079
<v Speaker 1>until you consider it, like a tiger or a jaguar, right,

0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:39.880
<v Speaker 1>and look how they blend into their environments. So now

0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:43.000
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna they're not covered in twigs and leaves. Sarka

0:02:43.200 --> 0:02:46.800
<v Speaker 1>emulates the predator strategy by using that same like a

0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:51.080
<v Speaker 1>limited palette, like you know, tiger two colors, a limited

0:02:51.120 --> 0:02:55.919
<v Speaker 1>palette of strongly contrasting tones with these sort of these

0:02:55.960 --> 0:02:59.520
<v Speaker 1>structures that appear to crack apart in order to break

0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:03.160
<v Speaker 1>up your outline. Saraha does not make the wear look

0:03:03.200 --> 0:03:04.640
<v Speaker 1>like a tree of rock. It makes you look like

0:03:04.680 --> 0:03:08.720
<v Speaker 1>nothing at all, no discernible pattern. It's great for you know,

0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:13.600
<v Speaker 1>sagebrush country, alpine tundra, everything in between, especially those sparse

0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:17.880
<v Speaker 1>landscapes with minimal cover where conventional cameos are really just

0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:21.560
<v Speaker 1>going to turn you into that human shaped blob, so

0:03:21.880 --> 0:03:24.280
<v Speaker 1>check it out. One a half second of confusion makes

0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:26.600
<v Speaker 1>the difference between punch and a tag and getting skunked.

0:03:27.040 --> 0:03:29.000
<v Speaker 1>You will want to reach for Saraha cambon and now

0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:30.080
<v Speaker 1>here's what you gotta do. If you want to find

0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:32.440
<v Speaker 1>out more, go to first light dot com and sign

0:03:32.480 --> 0:03:38.520
<v Speaker 1>up for notifications about when Sarica gear is available this spring.

0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:45.360
<v Speaker 3>Thanks.

0:03:47.280 --> 0:03:51.600
<v Speaker 1>Okay, everybody, we're in Uh, we're in our remote field

0:03:51.680 --> 0:03:58.120
<v Speaker 1>studio in South Texas, maybe forty minutes from Brownsville, Texas,

0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:03.080
<v Speaker 1>fifteen minutes from Raymondville, Texas, four hours and ten minutes

0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:04.960
<v Speaker 1>from Austin, Texas.

0:04:06.520 --> 0:04:10.640
<v Speaker 4>In about four hundred yards from our last remote studio

0:04:11.640 --> 0:04:14.000
<v Speaker 4>and four hundred yards from our last remote studio. And

0:04:14.040 --> 0:04:17.440
<v Speaker 4>today we're in we're in what I would call a

0:04:17.480 --> 0:04:24.560
<v Speaker 4>post rut environment. Deer seasons deer season is generally closed

0:04:24.640 --> 0:04:28.719
<v Speaker 4>unless you have We're not deer hunting, but deer season's closed.

0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:32.640
<v Speaker 4>But I think that some uh, there's some kind of

0:04:32.680 --> 0:04:38.679
<v Speaker 4>deal with depredation permits where depredation permits are still valid,

0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:40.960
<v Speaker 4>but it's generally shut down to the point where we're

0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:46.960
<v Speaker 4>watching a buck who is packing around one antler and we.

0:04:46.920 --> 0:04:50.880
<v Speaker 1>Just saw three bucks. One still had two antlers, two

0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:54.720
<v Speaker 1>had zero antlers, And we're just basically going to run

0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:59.520
<v Speaker 1>this podcast until that antler falls off, and then Seth's

0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:06.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna run over and retrieve it. It's windy. Yeah, some

0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:08.240
<v Speaker 1>gus will win. There's your one antler buck.

0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:11.240
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. He is like very curious about what's happening over there.

0:05:11.360 --> 0:05:14.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he's probably never been to a live podcast.

0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:16.800
<v Speaker 5>He's not looking at us though, Oh.

0:05:17.040 --> 0:05:19.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh, he's looking their direction. Yeah, I can see a

0:05:19.600 --> 0:05:22.960
<v Speaker 1>couple of buzzards. Just to set the scene, Krinn just

0:05:23.080 --> 0:05:26.479
<v Speaker 1>tried to catch an armadillo, but ambassador.

0:05:27.440 --> 0:05:31.040
<v Speaker 2>Called Yeah, just called in. Have Alena. That about ran

0:05:31.240 --> 0:05:31.520
<v Speaker 2>is over.

0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:34.800
<v Speaker 1>That was a voice of special guest Cameron Haynes, who

0:05:35.240 --> 0:05:38.960
<v Speaker 1>felt that Karinn in pursuit of the armadillo. He felt

0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:40.800
<v Speaker 1>that she hesitated.

0:05:45.080 --> 0:05:48.760
<v Speaker 3>You never see a lion mountain lion halfway chase something

0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:50.480
<v Speaker 3>and be like, oh no, I'm doing it.

0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:54.680
<v Speaker 1>You know you're right, that's true.

0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:58.480
<v Speaker 3>When when the lion goes he's going, he's I mean,

0:05:58.600 --> 0:05:59.839
<v Speaker 3>there's no hesitation.

0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:01.760
<v Speaker 6>I didn't want to hurt him.

0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:04.560
<v Speaker 1>He's like the lions like get hurt.

0:06:05.640 --> 0:06:09.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, lions don't have empathy.

0:06:10.560 --> 0:06:15.840
<v Speaker 1>So she hesitated, and then we earlier tested the metal

0:06:16.120 --> 0:06:19.400
<v Speaker 1>of uh Seth and Max and found out that they

0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:24.320
<v Speaker 1>lack metal. I think when someone's metal, you're testing their

0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:27.360
<v Speaker 1>m E T t l E. Right, yeah, yeah, you're

0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:29.000
<v Speaker 1>not testing their m E t A L.

0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:31.560
<v Speaker 2>I think we need to review the footage because I

0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:32.600
<v Speaker 2>think Max.

0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:34.640
<v Speaker 5>Did a lot more jumping than I definitely did.

0:06:35.600 --> 0:06:38.440
<v Speaker 1>When you're doing an experiment where you play a just

0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:40.800
<v Speaker 1>we're going to place more distress calls on him in here.

0:06:40.839 --> 0:06:43.400
<v Speaker 1>We did an experiment where you play a distress call

0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:46.279
<v Speaker 1>to a pack of Have a Lina's. And I was

0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:49.120
<v Speaker 1>telling these guys that my experience, twenty five percent of

0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:55.279
<v Speaker 1>the time they'll charge, and and I spooped him before

0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:58.400
<v Speaker 1>I could get where I wanted to get, played the

0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:01.640
<v Speaker 1>distress call and we got one to he didn't quite charge.

0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:04.800
<v Speaker 1>He was pissed. Yeah, And he came in again. And

0:07:04.839 --> 0:07:09.200
<v Speaker 1>he came in and tested Max's metal and found it

0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:14.600
<v Speaker 1>to be soft, found the metal to be malleable.

0:07:14.760 --> 0:07:16.920
<v Speaker 7>I'm just saying. I was filming and I was looking

0:07:16.960 --> 0:07:20.320
<v Speaker 7>at the screen and then I look up and he's

0:07:20.400 --> 0:07:23.760
<v Speaker 7>like right there, and I'm like, oh, okay.

0:07:23.840 --> 0:07:27.840
<v Speaker 3>His metal is aluminum foiler his M E T T

0:07:28.040 --> 0:07:30.440
<v Speaker 3>L E S O F T.

0:07:32.360 --> 0:07:35.160
<v Speaker 1>Okay, this is probably not gonna work because we're making

0:07:35.200 --> 0:07:36.880
<v Speaker 1>a shitload of nose.

0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:39.360
<v Speaker 3>But percent of time it works every time.

0:07:39.400 --> 0:07:41.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, we're gonna talk about a bunch of stop. First,

0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:43.400
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna hit this. Let me see how loud this is.

0:07:43.480 --> 0:07:48.720
<v Speaker 1>So we did squeaky Jack. That was squeaky Jack on

0:07:48.800 --> 0:07:52.720
<v Speaker 1>the havevelina that responded, And right now we're gonna hit

0:07:53.560 --> 0:07:58.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking shelter beell max shelterbell, yeah, or TN T

0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:03.320
<v Speaker 1>TN T praid of TNT, which would be a rabbit

0:08:03.360 --> 0:08:07.240
<v Speaker 1>in distress. You know here this is a we're uh,

0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:12.840
<v Speaker 1>we're using a Lucky Duck revolt caller, and we're in

0:08:13.000 --> 0:08:15.560
<v Speaker 1>the just the sounds that come with it. And I'm

0:08:15.560 --> 0:08:20.360
<v Speaker 1>in the cotton tail folder, and within the cotton tail folder,

0:08:20.400 --> 0:08:25.320
<v Speaker 1>I have cotton ball like bawl like b a w l,

0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:28.560
<v Speaker 1>cry like you're crying, not like I have like your

0:08:28.600 --> 0:08:32.800
<v Speaker 1>applying makeup. I have shelter belt, TNT, silly rabbit, high

0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:36.000
<v Speaker 1>pitch on and on down to bugs, bunny and skid row.

0:08:37.240 --> 0:08:39.959
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna lay out some TNT we're gonna do. We're

0:08:39.960 --> 0:08:41.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna talk over it. I think I got it fire

0:08:41.600 --> 0:08:44.160
<v Speaker 1>enough a way we can talk over it. We're gonna

0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:45.120
<v Speaker 1>do Volume ten.

0:08:45.880 --> 0:08:47.200
<v Speaker 5>Just don't turn it towards us.

0:08:47.520 --> 0:08:51.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna do the turnaround. And we're gonna hitch

0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:58.960
<v Speaker 1>TNT and see what we got. Oh, we can easily

0:08:59.000 --> 0:09:04.599
<v Speaker 1>talk over that. That's ridiculous. Okay, We're gonna let that

0:09:04.679 --> 0:09:13.960
<v Speaker 1>run a while. No, with that on, I need.

0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:16.719
<v Speaker 2>Stay ready with that long len.

0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:20.640
<v Speaker 5>There's no way if a Kyle comes ripping in here,

0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:22.400
<v Speaker 5>there's no way.

0:09:22.400 --> 0:09:22.480
<v Speaker 2>What.

0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:25.240
<v Speaker 5>I don't think I can get on with that big ones.

0:09:27.160 --> 0:09:29.760
<v Speaker 2>You might maybe it's.

0:09:29.720 --> 0:09:33.560
<v Speaker 1>Like I was saying, Join the Day by Max Barta,

0:09:33.840 --> 0:09:38.440
<v Speaker 1>Seth Morris, myself, cringe Schneider, Hog Hog Slayer, cringe Sneider

0:09:40.520 --> 0:09:42.520
<v Speaker 1>from the last time we were in our studio down

0:09:42.559 --> 0:09:48.560
<v Speaker 1>the down the row there and Cameron Haynes, and we're

0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:51.040
<v Speaker 1>gonna do a couple of little quick talking points now, Sath.

0:09:51.360 --> 0:09:52.679
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you're aware of this. I've been

0:09:52.679 --> 0:09:56.160
<v Speaker 1>meaning to tell you this. A listener wrote in and

0:09:56.480 --> 0:09:59.439
<v Speaker 1>and uh, it's afropros of being in the outdoor studio

0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:01.720
<v Speaker 1>because when we were in our other studio down the

0:10:01.720 --> 0:10:05.520
<v Speaker 1>way there, you did you were set in the scene

0:10:05.600 --> 0:10:07.640
<v Speaker 1>similar to how we just set the scene now, and

0:10:07.720 --> 0:10:10.000
<v Speaker 1>you set the scene with a rattling sequence.

0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:12.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I remember.

0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:16.800
<v Speaker 1>The gentleman was, how's the wind killing us?

0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:18.520
<v Speaker 2>The wind's not great.

0:10:18.840 --> 0:10:22.119
<v Speaker 8>It's not great, but maybe we can just be cognizant

0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:24.479
<v Speaker 8>of where we turn our heads sometimes.

0:10:25.880 --> 0:10:28.160
<v Speaker 1>A gentleman wrote in that he was listening to that

0:10:28.320 --> 0:10:31.320
<v Speaker 1>episode and during your rattling sequence, a deer ran by.

0:10:31.640 --> 0:10:34.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, sent that and I thought that it was

0:10:34.920 --> 0:10:37.120
<v Speaker 1>really cool, And then I realized he was driving, which

0:10:37.160 --> 0:10:40.440
<v Speaker 1>makes me think it was purely coincidental. I don't mean

0:10:40.480 --> 0:10:40.680
<v Speaker 1>to not.

0:10:40.720 --> 0:10:44.480
<v Speaker 2>I don't mean well. When I was reading that, Karin

0:10:44.600 --> 0:10:47.760
<v Speaker 2>forward that email on it. I had thought that I

0:10:47.800 --> 0:10:50.600
<v Speaker 2>had rattled in a book either too. I read it

0:10:50.640 --> 0:10:53.400
<v Speaker 2>twice before I realized you didn't rattle a lot, and

0:10:53.440 --> 0:10:55.240
<v Speaker 2>then yeah, then realized he was driving.

0:10:55.320 --> 0:10:57.600
<v Speaker 6>I didn't realize that until after I forwarded it.

0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Another piece of listener feedback that's appropriate because we're in

0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:06.200
<v Speaker 1>hog country is we reported repeatless. Let me walking back

0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:09.080
<v Speaker 1>through some history on the pig called the lipstick Pig

0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:13.360
<v Speaker 1>or floppy we are. A long time ago did a

0:11:13.400 --> 0:11:16.239
<v Speaker 1>call out where we were looking for great trail cam photos,

0:11:16.360 --> 0:11:20.199
<v Speaker 1>crazy trail cam photos. And a guy writes in and

0:11:20.240 --> 0:11:22.600
<v Speaker 1>he sends in a picture of a pig with what

0:11:22.640 --> 0:11:24.720
<v Speaker 1>I said, looked like he had his lipstick out, So

0:11:24.800 --> 0:11:28.720
<v Speaker 1>a pig that was I felt that the pig looked aroused.

0:11:29.760 --> 0:11:35.120
<v Speaker 1>And we then did a clarification that not that krins

0:11:35.160 --> 0:11:38.600
<v Speaker 1>particularly sensitive, but we did a thing that like a

0:11:38.640 --> 0:11:43.040
<v Speaker 1>great trail cam photo, a crazy trail cam photo is

0:11:43.080 --> 0:11:46.520
<v Speaker 1>not that the pig has his lipstick out. That's just

0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:49.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, and we were trying to define what we

0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:53.040
<v Speaker 1>meant by a great trail camp photo. He wrote in

0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:55.920
<v Speaker 1>to say, you got it all wrong. It stuck out.

0:11:58.920 --> 0:12:02.640
<v Speaker 1>It's always like that. So we had a veterinarian on

0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:08.960
<v Speaker 1>We had a veterinarian on the show Divina doctor Divina

0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:13.800
<v Speaker 1>Spencer from Virginia Beach, and she told us all about

0:12:13.880 --> 0:12:15.000
<v Speaker 1>an ailment.

0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:19.760
<v Speaker 5>Paramosis. Yes, she told us.

0:12:19.840 --> 0:12:21.560
<v Speaker 1>If you listen to that episode, you heard it. She

0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:25.880
<v Speaker 1>told us about parafemosis, and parafemosis is that. And she

0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:28.839
<v Speaker 1>has dealt with this frequently, as she explained on the show,

0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:32.280
<v Speaker 1>She's dealt with this frequently, or I shouldn't say frequently.

0:12:32.360 --> 0:12:35.880
<v Speaker 1>She's dealt with this with dogs and talked about how

0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:39.040
<v Speaker 1>to treat with dogs and then worst case scenarios they've

0:12:39.040 --> 0:12:43.040
<v Speaker 1>had to do like a penis removal on the dog

0:12:43.800 --> 0:12:46.439
<v Speaker 1>and sort of cut things and tie things in place

0:12:46.480 --> 0:12:48.559
<v Speaker 1>and basically makes like a little like a.

0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:51.480
<v Speaker 5>Little pee hole at the hide for it.

0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:56.280
<v Speaker 1>Well, then the guy writes back, once we clarified that,

0:12:56.400 --> 0:13:01.480
<v Speaker 1>he then writes back that he is gone and shot floppy.

0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:03.959
<v Speaker 1>The last photo we get a floppy is it laying

0:13:04.040 --> 0:13:07.560
<v Speaker 1>on his garage floor? And when they skinned it and

0:13:07.600 --> 0:13:13.360
<v Speaker 1>butchered it, he found that it's bladder was quote I

0:13:13.440 --> 0:13:17.080
<v Speaker 1>want to get this right, very very quote hugely full

0:13:17.080 --> 0:13:21.959
<v Speaker 1>of urine, really hugely full of urine. And he he

0:13:21.960 --> 0:13:27.240
<v Speaker 1>he feels that it was so full, alarmingly full, that

0:13:27.520 --> 0:13:33.480
<v Speaker 1>perhaps that he couldn't urinate unless he had a high pressure. Right,

0:13:33.760 --> 0:13:35.040
<v Speaker 1>you know what they call that? Uh?

0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:37.920
<v Speaker 2>P h O What does that mean?

0:13:38.360 --> 0:13:39.000
<v Speaker 5>Piss hard on?

0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:43.719
<v Speaker 3>Oh there we go, like when you wake up in

0:13:43.800 --> 0:13:44.120
<v Speaker 3>the morning.

0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:46.360
<v Speaker 1>Sure had a piss Sure.

0:13:47.040 --> 0:13:48.680
<v Speaker 2>So here, guys, I'm looking at a picture.

0:13:48.760 --> 0:13:50.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm looking at a picture of him sitting here in

0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:51.480
<v Speaker 1>the garage.

0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:58.000
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, for our audience, ptill put this up on video.

0:13:58.160 --> 0:14:01.160
<v Speaker 8>But yeah, I think a measuring.

0:14:00.720 --> 0:14:04.400
<v Speaker 1>Stick, So I wrong I would have put that picture up.

0:14:04.440 --> 0:14:05.559
<v Speaker 1>That would have done that.

0:14:07.559 --> 0:14:08.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, bad deal.

0:14:08.679 --> 0:14:11.360
<v Speaker 6>Yeah Steve, maybe you put this on behind you too, But.

0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:13.960
<v Speaker 2>I put it up and I put the wrong photo up.

0:14:14.640 --> 0:14:17.840
<v Speaker 1>I was going to do further reporting on my uh,

0:14:18.200 --> 0:14:19.280
<v Speaker 1>phantom groin pain.

0:14:19.560 --> 0:14:22.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm not going to get into it. We've covered it.

0:14:22.640 --> 0:14:24.240
<v Speaker 6>But somebody wrote in about it.

0:14:24.120 --> 0:14:27.040
<v Speaker 1>Multiple people about my phantom grind pain, and I don't

0:14:27.040 --> 0:14:27.920
<v Speaker 1>need to get into it anymore.

0:14:28.040 --> 0:14:28.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm all better.

0:14:30.640 --> 0:14:33.720
<v Speaker 1>Now here's someone rolled in and this is an interesting thing.

0:14:33.880 --> 0:14:39.680
<v Speaker 1>I was telling the story of my father attempting to

0:14:39.800 --> 0:14:43.960
<v Speaker 1>neuter his cat, fig the cat. He tamed a feral

0:14:44.040 --> 0:14:48.680
<v Speaker 1>cat with fish heads and it became the family cat.

0:14:49.600 --> 0:14:51.440
<v Speaker 1>And one day he wanted to get it neutered, and

0:14:51.480 --> 0:14:53.560
<v Speaker 1>he took it to a hog farmer body of his

0:14:53.640 --> 0:14:56.720
<v Speaker 1>who's neutered hundreds of hogs and figged and they put

0:14:56.720 --> 0:14:59.080
<v Speaker 1>it in a gunny sack and cut a hole in

0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:04.680
<v Speaker 1>the gunny sack and attempted to neuter it, and the

0:15:04.720 --> 0:15:08.960
<v Speaker 1>cat fought him off, as you never heard you want

0:15:09.000 --> 0:15:12.880
<v Speaker 1>to talk about a distress call. And it only lasted

0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:15.120
<v Speaker 1>like a short period of time, and they're like, never mind,

0:15:16.040 --> 0:15:17.680
<v Speaker 1>And then the cat lived.

0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:18.440
<v Speaker 2>The rest of his life.

0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:25.600
<v Speaker 1>Intact, the guy wrote in saying that a veterinarian wrote

0:15:25.600 --> 0:15:29.400
<v Speaker 1>in twenty seven years as a veterinarian, and he has

0:15:29.480 --> 0:15:35.120
<v Speaker 1>neutered untold numbers of tomcats. And he also goes, I'm

0:15:35.160 --> 0:15:37.720
<v Speaker 1>to say I have spent my entire career listening to

0:15:37.800 --> 0:15:43.280
<v Speaker 1>men tell me. I've spent my entire career listening to

0:15:43.360 --> 0:15:46.560
<v Speaker 1>men tell me they'll just stick that tomcat in the

0:15:46.640 --> 0:15:49.560
<v Speaker 1>boot and do it themselves instead of paying me to

0:15:49.600 --> 0:15:54.000
<v Speaker 1>do it. Usually the wife looks at him, then me,

0:15:54.280 --> 0:15:58.840
<v Speaker 1>then rolls her eyes and schedules the appointment. I have

0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:03.280
<v Speaker 1>never once known a person from this generation or the prior,

0:16:04.360 --> 0:16:11.920
<v Speaker 1>who could neuter a cat without veterinary help. Cattle, hogs, sheep, goats, horses,

0:16:12.080 --> 0:16:17.560
<v Speaker 1>no problem, Cats, no way. It was refreshing to hear

0:16:17.600 --> 0:16:19.720
<v Speaker 1>a more realistic take on the topic.

0:16:22.520 --> 0:16:26.240
<v Speaker 2>Man, it would be intimidated to do a horse. I

0:16:26.240 --> 0:16:26.760
<v Speaker 2>feel like.

0:16:28.400 --> 0:16:32.480
<v Speaker 5>I wouldn't do a cat. Well, you're an honest man.

0:16:34.520 --> 0:16:37.000
<v Speaker 1>Also related to Texas, we have there's a news item,

0:16:37.480 --> 0:16:40.120
<v Speaker 1>and this news item was reporting the Wall Street Journal,

0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:42.560
<v Speaker 1>and it was about I'd be curious to get your

0:16:42.600 --> 0:16:47.560
<v Speaker 1>opinion about this, anyone who's got opinion about this. I'd

0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:53.640
<v Speaker 1>be happy to hear it. I'm undecided. A county in Texas, Okay,

0:16:53.680 --> 0:16:59.240
<v Speaker 1>what county is this? Brizonia County, Texas, south of Houston.

0:17:01.760 --> 0:17:09.919
<v Speaker 1>There is a plan from a biomedical research firm that

0:17:10.040 --> 0:17:13.159
<v Speaker 1>owns a five hundred acre parcel. Okay, so, Brizoni County,

0:17:13.240 --> 0:17:18.800
<v Speaker 1>south Houston, Texas. Biomedical research firm Charles River Laboratories, all right.

0:17:19.480 --> 0:17:21.879
<v Speaker 1>They own a five hundred acre parcel in what sounds

0:17:21.880 --> 0:17:26.120
<v Speaker 1>like a quiet, nice little community. Their plan is.

0:17:26.040 --> 0:17:29.359
<v Speaker 3>To build.

0:17:29.920 --> 0:17:37.880
<v Speaker 1>A facility that will house forty three thousand, two hundred

0:17:38.280 --> 0:17:45.080
<v Speaker 1>monkeys that then can be sold for animal research.

0:17:48.359 --> 0:17:48.919
<v Speaker 5>Locals.

0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:55.240
<v Speaker 1>I want you to take a guess locals are excited

0:17:55.600 --> 0:17:58.040
<v Speaker 1>a or be not excited.

0:18:00.320 --> 0:18:01.440
<v Speaker 5>I'm glad I don't live there.

0:18:03.359 --> 0:18:12.679
<v Speaker 1>Forty three thousand primates Okay, Now, so you can guess

0:18:12.720 --> 0:18:16.320
<v Speaker 1>that Pete is not crazy about it. The chosen site

0:18:16.359 --> 0:18:18.840
<v Speaker 1>borders land owned and protected by the US Fish and

0:18:18.880 --> 0:18:22.240
<v Speaker 1>Wildlife Service, the Nature Conservancy, and the San Bernard National

0:18:22.320 --> 0:18:31.879
<v Speaker 1>Wildlife Refuge. Locals affected, including the locals affected, include veterinarians

0:18:33.000 --> 0:18:36.600
<v Speaker 1>and directors of conservation organizations who are now speaking out

0:18:36.600 --> 0:18:42.240
<v Speaker 1>to voice their opposition to the facility. Locals in Brazonia

0:18:42.280 --> 0:18:45.000
<v Speaker 1>County would be a little slice that think they have

0:18:45.000 --> 0:18:47.280
<v Speaker 1>a little slice of Texas, solitaries away from the hub

0:18:47.280 --> 0:18:50.680
<v Speaker 1>of of Houston, and they want to know how much racket?

0:18:52.320 --> 0:18:54.800
<v Speaker 1>How much racket? I'm trying to curious about the sentence.

0:18:54.880 --> 0:18:59.000
<v Speaker 1>How much racket does forty three thousand monkeys make? Wouldn't

0:18:59.000 --> 0:19:00.159
<v Speaker 1>it be how much rackt it?

0:19:01.240 --> 0:19:02.680
<v Speaker 2>No? Is it right?

0:19:03.119 --> 0:19:06.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? How much racket is forty three thousand monkeys make?

0:19:06.480 --> 0:19:10.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure they're not quiet. A shrimper had that to say.

0:19:11.320 --> 0:19:15.120
<v Speaker 1>He owns eleven hundred acres nearby another neighbor. I thought

0:19:15.119 --> 0:19:17.040
<v Speaker 1>this would be a place to get away from everything.

0:19:17.520 --> 0:19:22.120
<v Speaker 1>Now a monkey farm is my neighbor, says a retired

0:19:22.200 --> 0:19:29.320
<v Speaker 1>veterinarian who owns nine hundred acres. People were about their

0:19:29.480 --> 0:19:32.760
<v Speaker 1>property values plunging. Now here's where you get into this

0:19:32.800 --> 0:19:36.080
<v Speaker 1>whole thing, Like I would figure when I'm not a taxan.

0:19:36.119 --> 0:19:36.719
<v Speaker 2>Far from it.

0:19:37.600 --> 0:19:40.919
<v Speaker 1>But when Texans like to think of Texans, they like

0:19:40.960 --> 0:19:45.000
<v Speaker 1>to think of people doing what they want on their

0:19:45.040 --> 0:19:46.240
<v Speaker 1>own land.

0:19:47.200 --> 0:19:48.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I would agree with that.

0:19:49.080 --> 0:19:55.760
<v Speaker 1>Do mass of taxes, Republic of taxes keep Texas weird? No,

0:19:55.840 --> 0:19:57.920
<v Speaker 1>that's not a thing. You know what I'm saying, yeah,

0:19:58.640 --> 0:20:02.000
<v Speaker 1>So this throws you into uh the stosie into a

0:20:02.080 --> 0:20:05.480
<v Speaker 1>bind because on one hand you might fancy yourself like

0:20:05.520 --> 0:20:08.880
<v Speaker 1>a property rights person, but then on the other hand

0:20:09.240 --> 0:20:11.240
<v Speaker 1>you get you throw the nimby thing into it. Not

0:20:11.440 --> 0:20:14.280
<v Speaker 1>that's that the acronym for not in my backyard. So

0:20:14.359 --> 0:20:18.760
<v Speaker 1>you're like, in theory, I'm a pro property rights person,

0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:21.639
<v Speaker 1>but not when it comes to putting monkeys by my house.

0:20:23.000 --> 0:20:24.840
<v Speaker 2>This is just a private company doing this.

0:20:25.200 --> 0:20:27.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's a private company doing it. It's not a

0:20:27.800 --> 0:20:33.480
<v Speaker 1>government research facility. But like, I don't judge nimby stuff

0:20:33.520 --> 0:20:36.919
<v Speaker 1>because everybody has a little bit of nimby mentality, but

0:20:37.040 --> 0:20:39.320
<v Speaker 1>it does it creates a problem because if you'd have

0:20:39.400 --> 0:20:41.920
<v Speaker 1>gone previously and asked these individuals.

0:20:41.480 --> 0:20:43.840
<v Speaker 3>If you'd gone to this, you know, I mean, you know,

0:20:43.840 --> 0:20:44.199
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:20:44.240 --> 0:20:47.520
<v Speaker 1>The guy's probably great, the shrimper that has eleven hundred acres,

0:20:47.960 --> 0:20:50.520
<v Speaker 1>the retired vet that has nine hundred acres. If I'd

0:20:50.560 --> 0:20:52.119
<v Speaker 1>have gone and said knocked on dor and said do

0:20:52.160 --> 0:20:53.960
<v Speaker 1>you feel like people should be able to tell you

0:20:54.000 --> 0:20:55.520
<v Speaker 1>what to do on your property?

0:20:55.800 --> 0:20:58.720
<v Speaker 5>Data said hell no or no?

0:20:58.760 --> 0:21:00.840
<v Speaker 3>They would have said hell no, how they is that?

0:21:00.960 --> 0:21:11.240
<v Speaker 5>It probably a little deeper voice and like, hell no, mine.

0:21:11.320 --> 0:21:13.640
<v Speaker 3>He sounded like it wouldn't have been Biden.

0:21:14.800 --> 0:21:18.520
<v Speaker 2>That's not fine, hell little.

0:21:18.400 --> 0:21:20.880
<v Speaker 5>Man, No, it would have been hail no partner.

0:21:21.200 --> 0:21:24.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, hell yeah. I kept thinking of Parker Hall and

0:21:24.480 --> 0:21:27.840
<v Speaker 2>he's like ship no man. Yeah he's not from Texas,

0:21:27.840 --> 0:21:30.880
<v Speaker 2>I know, but he's South Yeah, and they all sound

0:21:30.920 --> 0:21:31.200
<v Speaker 2>the same.

0:21:31.280 --> 0:21:31.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:21:31.600 --> 0:21:36.800
<v Speaker 1>So uh so this is a stumber. But I can

0:21:36.880 --> 0:21:39.119
<v Speaker 1>tell you that as much as I might be like

0:21:39.160 --> 0:21:42.119
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of a you know, generally simple like

0:21:42.480 --> 0:21:50.199
<v Speaker 1>generally sympathetic two, generally sympathetic to private property rights up

0:21:50.240 --> 0:21:55.360
<v Speaker 1>to the point where you're doing environmental damage to like neighbors.

0:21:55.359 --> 0:21:58.359
<v Speaker 1>Like meaning, if I own a spot and I decide

0:21:58.359 --> 0:22:01.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna dump you know, arsenic in the creek because

0:22:01.400 --> 0:22:03.960
<v Speaker 1>it's my property, and then the guy down the creek

0:22:04.040 --> 0:22:07.280
<v Speaker 1>on the next property's like, dude, you just do arsenic

0:22:07.320 --> 0:22:09.280
<v Speaker 1>in the creek and now it's all over my property.

0:22:09.440 --> 0:22:09.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:22:09.840 --> 0:22:13.359
<v Speaker 1>Right, But the monkey thing, I don't know anything about

0:22:13.359 --> 0:22:15.280
<v Speaker 1>that game. Well, how would you roll on that you're

0:22:15.320 --> 0:22:16.480
<v Speaker 1>the neighbor of the monkey man?

0:22:17.359 --> 0:22:21.480
<v Speaker 3>I don't want forty three thousand monkeys in my neighborhood.

0:22:22.880 --> 0:22:24.399
<v Speaker 1>So you'd be no, i'd be now.

0:22:25.080 --> 0:22:30.240
<v Speaker 9>I mean, I just have a partner. I just think

0:22:30.520 --> 0:22:32.800
<v Speaker 9>it's inevitable that some of those things are going to

0:22:32.840 --> 0:22:35.080
<v Speaker 9>get out. Yeah, and then what Yeah, well you know

0:22:35.160 --> 0:22:37.359
<v Speaker 9>what the planet of the apes. Yeah, it's not like

0:22:37.480 --> 0:22:39.920
<v Speaker 9>they get out in Montana and they just freeze to death,

0:22:39.960 --> 0:22:40.119
<v Speaker 9>you know.

0:22:40.520 --> 0:22:43.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's put in there because there's a good environment

0:22:43.640 --> 0:22:45.040
<v Speaker 1>for Yeah, they're going to get out down here and

0:22:45.119 --> 0:22:48.800
<v Speaker 1>like can establish a population. This is a This is

0:22:48.840 --> 0:22:52.399
<v Speaker 1>an especially appropriate conversation to have here because if you

0:22:52.480 --> 0:22:55.679
<v Speaker 1>sit here for an hour, you see a monkey, you're

0:22:55.720 --> 0:22:59.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna see three things that did get out, Yeah, exactly,

0:22:59.400 --> 0:23:05.080
<v Speaker 1>which is more than three new guy water buck, we

0:23:05.119 --> 0:23:05.680
<v Speaker 1>saw it.

0:23:05.720 --> 0:23:06.159
<v Speaker 2>We saw a.

0:23:08.600 --> 0:23:10.000
<v Speaker 5>Red letchwa Is that?

0:23:10.200 --> 0:23:11.080
<v Speaker 2>Am I saying that? Right?

0:23:11.680 --> 0:23:15.080
<v Speaker 1>These are all animals that run around in this region,

0:23:15.760 --> 0:23:19.639
<v Speaker 1>not fence from place to place, free range, So stuff

0:23:19.640 --> 0:23:25.400
<v Speaker 1>gets out in Texas. Bigfoot question, is it real?

0:23:26.560 --> 0:23:28.200
<v Speaker 2>No, it's a reasonable question.

0:23:28.320 --> 0:23:31.400
<v Speaker 6>And it's based on that bear Bigfoot.

0:23:31.800 --> 0:23:34.760
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, we covered on the probably the we covered

0:23:34.800 --> 0:23:36.720
<v Speaker 1>on one of the goofiest things ever. Not recap it,

0:23:36.880 --> 0:23:39.879
<v Speaker 1>So listeners who already heard it bear with me. A

0:23:40.000 --> 0:23:44.200
<v Speaker 1>researcher was looking at was trying to find correlations between

0:23:44.240 --> 0:23:47.920
<v Speaker 1>prevalence of bigfoot sightings and abundance of black bears, which

0:23:47.960 --> 0:23:51.520
<v Speaker 1>is fine, Sure, I don't care. And they pointed out

0:23:51.520 --> 0:23:54.200
<v Speaker 1>that the higher density of black bears you have, the

0:23:54.280 --> 0:23:59.160
<v Speaker 1>higher density of bigfoot reportings you have. But then, as

0:23:59.200 --> 0:24:02.600
<v Speaker 1>I postulated, their friend or a colleague or something said,

0:24:03.280 --> 0:24:08.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's kind of pointless that research. So then

0:24:08.320 --> 0:24:11.680
<v Speaker 1>they said, with a seam, with a straight face, they say,

0:24:11.960 --> 0:24:16.840
<v Speaker 1>this could be helpful for bear conservation because you could

0:24:16.880 --> 0:24:21.520
<v Speaker 1>look and see a decline in bigfoot reportings and translate

0:24:21.640 --> 0:24:25.520
<v Speaker 1>that to a decline in black bear numbers. So instead

0:24:25.560 --> 0:24:29.960
<v Speaker 1>of counting black bears, why not just count bigfoot sightings?

0:24:32.080 --> 0:24:35.040
<v Speaker 1>Which felt to me like a stretch. Yeah, that felt

0:24:35.080 --> 0:24:37.200
<v Speaker 1>to me like a I'll just say it. That felt

0:24:37.320 --> 0:24:43.000
<v Speaker 1>like a dumb idea. So no offense to the you know,

0:24:43.840 --> 0:24:47.760
<v Speaker 1>minor offense to the person. Someone wrote in, would you

0:24:47.800 --> 0:24:49.760
<v Speaker 1>consider bigfoot to be a potential.

0:24:49.400 --> 0:24:52.600
<v Speaker 2>Vector for trichinosis? Oh?

0:24:52.680 --> 0:25:00.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it depends that they're herbivorous. They gotta be then no, no, no,

0:25:01.200 --> 0:25:05.439
<v Speaker 1>they're NONI they're omnivores. I would think like when you

0:25:05.480 --> 0:25:07.200
<v Speaker 1>think of a bigfoot, you think of an omnivore.

0:25:07.680 --> 0:25:10.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like he's gonna take a he's gonna he's gonna

0:25:10.119 --> 0:25:12.160
<v Speaker 2>take a jack, He's gonna take a bite of a deer,

0:25:12.200 --> 0:25:15.960
<v Speaker 2>and then like have a couple berries, do you think so?

0:25:16.160 --> 0:25:20.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Uh so, then that would put him in the yes,

0:25:21.240 --> 0:25:23.800
<v Speaker 1>but he's not gonna get it from a jack rabbit.

0:25:24.960 --> 0:25:27.919
<v Speaker 1>He would have to be eating and he has another

0:25:28.359 --> 0:25:31.640
<v Speaker 1>he'd have to eat another omnivorous animal. They don't overlap.

0:25:33.040 --> 0:25:33.520
<v Speaker 3>Eat bear.

0:25:34.920 --> 0:25:38.000
<v Speaker 2>What if those researchers came across someone who said they

0:25:38.000 --> 0:25:41.880
<v Speaker 2>saw the bigfoot eating a bear, would the research.

0:25:44.800 --> 0:25:45.359
<v Speaker 5>Throw it off?

0:25:45.720 --> 0:25:47.199
<v Speaker 1>They're like, so, does this mean there's a lot of

0:25:47.320 --> 0:25:51.960
<v Speaker 1>bears or not many? Yeah, they eat bear? Sure, And

0:25:52.000 --> 0:25:54.159
<v Speaker 1>then that's a good question. It's just we need to

0:25:54.240 --> 0:25:59.760
<v Speaker 1>have more research on bigfoots. And then they're saying, what

0:26:00.800 --> 0:26:04.879
<v Speaker 1>if bigfoot is a hominid and it is, would the

0:26:04.960 --> 0:26:08.080
<v Speaker 1>flavor profile be similar to pork since many cannibals have

0:26:08.160 --> 0:26:13.920
<v Speaker 1>referred to human meat as long pig. Great question that

0:26:14.040 --> 0:26:16.280
<v Speaker 1>was from Rob and Jason. They had to put their

0:26:16.280 --> 0:26:22.119
<v Speaker 1>heads together, Rob and Jason, they had to co work that.

0:26:22.240 --> 0:26:22.960
<v Speaker 5>They had to work that.

0:26:22.960 --> 0:26:23.679
<v Speaker 2>One up together.

0:26:25.119 --> 0:26:28.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, took the two of them. They met over. They

0:26:28.600 --> 0:26:29.520
<v Speaker 3>met over coffee.

0:26:30.359 --> 0:26:30.920
<v Speaker 2>That's great.

0:26:40.520 --> 0:26:43.119
<v Speaker 1>So we've been covering a little bit just just because

0:26:43.119 --> 0:26:46.600
<v Speaker 1>it's fun, sort of like, uh yeah, odd little issues

0:26:46.640 --> 0:26:49.480
<v Speaker 1>having to do with odd issues having to do with T.

0:26:49.720 --> 0:26:53.879
<v Speaker 1>S A taking your guns, knives and ammo.

0:26:55.520 --> 0:26:57.720
<v Speaker 2>I just recently had to throw a knife in the trash.

0:26:57.760 --> 0:26:59.520
<v Speaker 2>Did you go through? Yeah?

0:26:59.720 --> 0:27:02.920
<v Speaker 5>You hide it? No, Bush hide't know Potter, Well.

0:27:03.000 --> 0:27:05.639
<v Speaker 2>You know where it was in the Philadelphia airport. You

0:27:05.680 --> 0:27:09.199
<v Speaker 2>weren't going back. No, I was deep in line and

0:27:09.240 --> 0:27:11.760
<v Speaker 2>there was no Yeah, I wasn't going back. There was

0:27:12.080 --> 0:27:17.360
<v Speaker 2>it was. You didn't say it was a bench made bunk.

0:27:17.200 --> 0:27:19.480
<v Speaker 1>Out in the trash.

0:27:20.000 --> 0:27:20.320
<v Speaker 6>Wow.

0:27:20.520 --> 0:27:22.080
<v Speaker 1>You could have said to someone like, hey, can you

0:27:22.119 --> 0:27:24.840
<v Speaker 1>hold my place in line? I need to go bury

0:27:24.920 --> 0:27:25.479
<v Speaker 1>my knife.

0:27:27.040 --> 0:27:30.520
<v Speaker 2>I was. I was running late too at the time,

0:27:30.640 --> 0:27:33.840
<v Speaker 2>so I didn't have too many options.

0:27:34.320 --> 0:27:36.920
<v Speaker 1>This gentleman has this to say. I'm gonna skip ahead

0:27:36.960 --> 0:27:39.280
<v Speaker 1>to his name. Oh Tucker.

0:27:41.480 --> 0:27:42.960
<v Speaker 3>Great interview Tucker with Putin.

0:27:43.040 --> 0:27:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, fresh off his interview with Putin, he has to say,

0:27:48.600 --> 0:27:50.960
<v Speaker 1>I was listening to the episode that you were doing

0:27:51.040 --> 0:27:54.400
<v Speaker 1>in the bus talking about T. S A stories. We'll

0:27:54.440 --> 0:27:57.320
<v Speaker 1>get this. I like that the story where he says

0:27:57.320 --> 0:27:59.800
<v Speaker 1>we'll get this. That guess my, that guess me me

0:27:59.880 --> 0:28:03.480
<v Speaker 1>aens twenty nineteen. I got married, and I got married,

0:28:03.640 --> 0:28:05.919
<v Speaker 1>ran out of alcohol, so one of the guys that

0:28:06.160 --> 0:28:08.640
<v Speaker 1>was a friend of the family went and got more alcohol.

0:28:08.920 --> 0:28:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Sounds like your way, needlessly say. I drank a little

0:28:12.240 --> 0:28:15.160
<v Speaker 1>too much four roses that night. So we got home

0:28:15.200 --> 0:28:17.199
<v Speaker 1>about two am, and we had to get up at

0:28:17.200 --> 0:28:20.320
<v Speaker 1>about five am to get to the airport. On international

0:28:20.320 --> 0:28:25.000
<v Speaker 1>flight to Jamaica. He's like, ee Cummings, he is no

0:28:25.840 --> 0:28:32.080
<v Speaker 1>punctuation on international flight to Jamaica. Now I say international

0:28:32.160 --> 0:28:37.119
<v Speaker 1>because that's very important noted because five thirty am I

0:28:37.160 --> 0:28:40.440
<v Speaker 1>woke up to my four forty five alarm blaring and

0:28:40.640 --> 0:28:43.959
<v Speaker 1>phone blowing up, still drunk in my uber driver calling

0:28:44.040 --> 0:28:46.800
<v Speaker 1>me since five am to see if we were still

0:28:46.840 --> 0:28:48.920
<v Speaker 1>going to the airport. So we jumped out of bed,

0:28:49.000 --> 0:28:51.960
<v Speaker 1>threw our bags in the car, and raced down on

0:28:52.040 --> 0:28:55.680
<v Speaker 1>an hour drive to the international terminal in Atlanta for

0:28:55.760 --> 0:28:59.360
<v Speaker 1>a seven am flight, and realized that we're not flying

0:28:59.400 --> 0:29:03.240
<v Speaker 1>to Jamaica. We're flying to Charlotte and then we're flying

0:29:03.280 --> 0:29:07.560
<v Speaker 1>to Jamaica. So we're in the wrong terminal. So we

0:29:07.640 --> 0:29:10.480
<v Speaker 1>hop a bus to the domestic terminal. By the time

0:29:10.480 --> 0:29:12.920
<v Speaker 1>we get there, we've missed our flight. Then they got

0:29:12.920 --> 0:29:15.400
<v Speaker 1>to find us the next flight to Jamaica two hours later.

0:29:15.920 --> 0:29:18.240
<v Speaker 1>So here I am still drunk in the airport, going

0:29:18.280 --> 0:29:23.560
<v Speaker 1>through security, getting all this yep, yep, I got it.

0:29:24.720 --> 0:29:27.360
<v Speaker 1>I throw my backpack on the belt. It goes through

0:29:27.360 --> 0:29:29.880
<v Speaker 1>the X ray scanner and I'm watching the guy looking

0:29:29.920 --> 0:29:33.760
<v Speaker 1>at the screen and his face turned sour. They move

0:29:33.880 --> 0:29:36.600
<v Speaker 1>my backpack off the side of the belt. A lady

0:29:36.640 --> 0:29:38.720
<v Speaker 1>goes and looks at it and brings my bag over

0:29:38.840 --> 0:29:42.320
<v Speaker 1>so she can search it. I said, yeah, no problem.

0:29:42.880 --> 0:29:45.600
<v Speaker 1>She starts unzipping zippers and then pulls out a full

0:29:45.680 --> 0:29:50.160
<v Speaker 1>clip fifty rounds fifteen rounds of forty five ACP that

0:29:50.360 --> 0:29:53.080
<v Speaker 1>was sitting in an inside pouch of the outside zipper

0:29:53.080 --> 0:29:55.640
<v Speaker 1>in my bag. So at this point, I feel like

0:29:55.680 --> 0:29:57.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm about to pass out, because you know, obviously I'm

0:29:57.880 --> 0:30:01.600
<v Speaker 1>going to prison. Look at her and I go, oh, ship,

0:30:01.680 --> 0:30:05.520
<v Speaker 1>you can keep that to to it. She looks at

0:30:05.520 --> 0:30:08.360
<v Speaker 1>me for a couple of agonizing seconds felt like minutes,

0:30:08.360 --> 0:30:12.320
<v Speaker 1>and says, have a nice day, throws that mag in

0:30:12.480 --> 0:30:13.960
<v Speaker 1>the trash.

0:30:13.800 --> 0:30:14.560
<v Speaker 5>And lets me go.

0:30:16.240 --> 0:30:19.560
<v Speaker 1>He said that that dose of serenade has an added point,

0:30:19.640 --> 0:30:25.200
<v Speaker 1>this is something interesting, not serenade. Adrenaline sobered him up.

0:30:26.000 --> 0:30:30.800
<v Speaker 1>Oh so if you ever I don't drink anymore, but

0:30:30.840 --> 0:30:33.920
<v Speaker 1>if you ever feel like you're too drunk, something scared you.

0:30:34.000 --> 0:30:34.200
<v Speaker 2>Really.

0:30:35.560 --> 0:30:37.240
<v Speaker 6>I mean, he's a lucky son.

0:30:38.360 --> 0:30:40.040
<v Speaker 2>I feel like he would at least got pulled in

0:30:40.080 --> 0:30:42.640
<v Speaker 2>the back and got like a question a pat down.

0:30:42.680 --> 0:30:42.920
<v Speaker 2>You know.

0:30:43.160 --> 0:30:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Now, Now when that happened to me, I had the

0:30:48.160 --> 0:30:52.080
<v Speaker 1>cops came. They took me in the back room just

0:30:52.080 --> 0:30:57.120
<v Speaker 1>for AMMO one shotgun shell and they knew they they

0:30:57.240 --> 0:31:00.560
<v Speaker 1>knew that. I was like, dude, I'm so sorry. I

0:31:00.600 --> 0:31:05.080
<v Speaker 1>was hunting arm again with my brother, you know. And

0:31:05.160 --> 0:31:07.120
<v Speaker 1>they're like, yeah, obviously, dude, but now we got to

0:31:07.120 --> 0:31:08.880
<v Speaker 1>do all this stupid shit, you know.

0:31:08.920 --> 0:31:10.360
<v Speaker 2>And that was their attitude.

0:31:10.360 --> 0:31:12.600
<v Speaker 5>It was like, oh, come on, man, they didn't have

0:31:12.680 --> 0:31:13.720
<v Speaker 5>to they get through in the trash.

0:31:13.800 --> 0:31:16.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah now apparently I know true because I said, never

0:31:16.560 --> 0:31:17.560
<v Speaker 1>mind throwing the trash.

0:31:17.640 --> 0:31:21.480
<v Speaker 5>So you had your shotgun shell in your chata backpack.

0:31:22.160 --> 0:31:24.520
<v Speaker 1>I was like using my day pack hunting, and then

0:31:24.520 --> 0:31:26.920
<v Speaker 1>I like, unday packed my daypack and use it for

0:31:26.960 --> 0:31:28.120
<v Speaker 1>carrying my stuff.

0:31:28.400 --> 0:31:31.360
<v Speaker 5>Because you can check shotgun shells. Cane I know, but

0:31:31.400 --> 0:31:32.200
<v Speaker 5>it was in my carry on.

0:31:32.400 --> 0:31:32.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:31:32.680 --> 0:31:34.920
<v Speaker 5>Oh well, I'm just clarifying you. Oh yeah, for sure.

0:31:35.000 --> 0:31:39.560
<v Speaker 2>Sure, I've I've flown to a place before and got there,

0:31:39.680 --> 0:31:41.760
<v Speaker 2>started going through my carry on looking for something to

0:31:41.800 --> 0:31:43.680
<v Speaker 2>realize that I had a knife in there that made

0:31:43.680 --> 0:31:44.520
<v Speaker 2>it through security.

0:31:44.600 --> 0:31:47.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I've done that with broadheads. Yeah, I had broad

0:31:47.160 --> 0:31:53.160
<v Speaker 3>heads in my carry on made it through another jump

0:31:53.280 --> 0:31:53.720
<v Speaker 3>Part two.

0:31:54.520 --> 0:31:56.280
<v Speaker 1>I know this has become a topic that has been

0:31:56.320 --> 0:31:58.920
<v Speaker 1>revisited several times, But after donating a knife to a

0:31:58.920 --> 0:32:02.240
<v Speaker 1>trash can, I think I found a better solution than

0:32:02.400 --> 0:32:05.880
<v Speaker 1>has been mentioned so far. How are they coming in?

0:32:08.520 --> 0:32:14.200
<v Speaker 5>No, I think that's call Sorry, you're getting ready to run?

0:32:15.120 --> 0:32:25.120
<v Speaker 8>No, and Max was really trying to get out of

0:32:25.160 --> 0:32:25.480
<v Speaker 8>the way.

0:32:26.080 --> 0:32:27.240
<v Speaker 5>I have charged the.

0:32:37.240 --> 0:32:43.320
<v Speaker 1>Solution two. After stepping out of the shuttle bus, I

0:32:43.320 --> 0:32:45.479
<v Speaker 1>realized I still had two knives on my person.

0:32:46.680 --> 0:32:47.080
<v Speaker 3>Still.

0:32:47.440 --> 0:32:50.680
<v Speaker 1>He got rid of some, but still had too. I

0:32:50.760 --> 0:32:53.680
<v Speaker 1>refuse to trash two perfectly good knives. He's like a

0:32:53.760 --> 0:32:58.520
<v Speaker 1>he's like a gunfighter. I refuse to trash two perfectly

0:32:58.520 --> 0:33:00.560
<v Speaker 1>good knives. So I asked the buster if he could

0:33:00.600 --> 0:33:02.680
<v Speaker 1>take them back to my car and hide them for me.

0:33:04.440 --> 0:33:07.000
<v Speaker 1>This technique may have been discovered already because he promptly

0:33:07.040 --> 0:33:09.520
<v Speaker 1>produced an envelope for the knives and said they should

0:33:09.520 --> 0:33:12.000
<v Speaker 1>be tucked under my windshield wiper when I returned.

0:33:13.080 --> 0:33:14.080
<v Speaker 5>Nice good guy.

0:33:14.000 --> 0:33:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Gave him a tip when he returned my knaves. My

0:33:16.560 --> 0:33:17.800
<v Speaker 1>knives were safe and sound.

0:33:18.120 --> 0:33:24.080
<v Speaker 8>Oh so you were giving really helpful hot tips in America.

0:33:24.160 --> 0:33:25.920
<v Speaker 2>There's lots of options that I didn't know about.

0:33:26.040 --> 0:33:29.760
<v Speaker 3>Well, that was before he was at TSA, though he

0:33:29.800 --> 0:33:33.520
<v Speaker 3>realized he had the knives. Yeah, so when you're at TSA,

0:33:33.560 --> 0:33:34.520
<v Speaker 3>it's more of an airport.

0:33:34.720 --> 0:33:36.080
<v Speaker 1>It's more of an airport story.

0:33:37.000 --> 0:33:38.720
<v Speaker 5>So Cam, lay off me.

0:33:38.720 --> 0:33:42.800
<v Speaker 1>Your your what's your previous hog hunt experience? I gather

0:33:42.840 --> 0:33:45.920
<v Speaker 1>you're not like a passionate, dedicated, lifelong hog hunter.

0:33:46.440 --> 0:33:49.360
<v Speaker 3>I know. I mean I've killed I've killed a number

0:33:49.360 --> 0:33:53.440
<v Speaker 3>of hogs, but it was Yeah, I just like beow hunting,

0:33:53.680 --> 0:33:55.719
<v Speaker 3>so I'll be hunt pretty much anything.

0:33:55.920 --> 0:33:58.000
<v Speaker 1>And where where would you? Where have you done your

0:33:58.000 --> 0:34:02.920
<v Speaker 1>pig hun California? Okay, yeah, Northern California. It's a different seat.

0:34:02.960 --> 0:34:07.080
<v Speaker 1>It's a much different pig hunting scene in California. I

0:34:07.160 --> 0:34:08.840
<v Speaker 1>mean they run him, they run him more like a

0:34:09.040 --> 0:34:12.560
<v Speaker 1>they run him more like a game animal. God, now

0:34:12.600 --> 0:34:15.440
<v Speaker 1>I can't even remember, Like you have to get like

0:34:15.680 --> 0:34:19.560
<v Speaker 1>these tags. Yeah, you get tags for him. I came

0:34:19.640 --> 0:34:21.799
<v Speaker 1>some hurdles to jump through. Yeah, it was.

0:34:22.000 --> 0:34:24.239
<v Speaker 3>That was my first out of state hunt because it

0:34:24.280 --> 0:34:30.000
<v Speaker 3>was really Yeah, it was in like ninety two maybe

0:34:31.680 --> 0:34:32.680
<v Speaker 3>thirty two years ago.

0:34:32.960 --> 0:34:33.320
<v Speaker 2>Huh.

0:34:33.560 --> 0:34:36.440
<v Speaker 3>Me and Roy went down to wuy Rica and remind

0:34:36.440 --> 0:34:39.359
<v Speaker 3>people who Roy is. Roy is my buddy who got

0:34:39.400 --> 0:34:40.280
<v Speaker 3>me started bow hunting.

0:34:40.440 --> 0:34:41.320
<v Speaker 2>Roy Roth.

0:34:42.840 --> 0:34:45.279
<v Speaker 3>And uh, yeah, he passed away in twenty fifteen, but

0:34:45.880 --> 0:34:48.680
<v Speaker 3>we did a lot of hunts in between from that

0:34:48.800 --> 0:34:50.839
<v Speaker 3>time when I started in nineteen eighty nine to when

0:34:50.880 --> 0:34:52.879
<v Speaker 3>he died in twenty fifteen. And that was our first

0:34:52.960 --> 0:34:54.839
<v Speaker 3>out of state hunt. We could drive there from home

0:34:54.880 --> 0:34:56.960
<v Speaker 3>in Oregon and you went there, two hunt pigs, two

0:34:57.040 --> 0:34:59.680
<v Speaker 3>hunt pigs. Yeah, we And that was with dogs actually,

0:34:59.719 --> 0:35:02.080
<v Speaker 3>so we were they had them bade up in the

0:35:02.120 --> 0:35:04.520
<v Speaker 3>brush and I was on my knees in the brush,

0:35:04.680 --> 0:35:07.880
<v Speaker 3>dogs and pigs running around, and I shot this pig

0:35:07.920 --> 0:35:13.120
<v Speaker 3>at about I don't know, I don't know, eight feet yeah,

0:35:13.200 --> 0:35:15.759
<v Speaker 3>and then I went down before another, I mean other

0:35:15.840 --> 0:35:18.120
<v Speaker 3>times and then spot in stock like kind of in

0:35:18.200 --> 0:35:21.000
<v Speaker 3>the rolling hills kind of outside of one time outside

0:35:21.040 --> 0:35:25.479
<v Speaker 3>of Sacramento, and uh, then another time more south of there.

0:35:25.560 --> 0:35:29.160
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, the first one I got was north of Sacramento.

0:35:29.400 --> 0:35:33.759
<v Speaker 3>Okay, spotings thought like green rolling hills kind of yeah.

0:35:33.840 --> 0:35:36.040
<v Speaker 1>Well in the right time year. The other times year

0:35:36.080 --> 0:35:39.760
<v Speaker 1>was dry right, speckled with oaks, yeah.

0:35:39.400 --> 0:35:40.839
<v Speaker 2>You know, and a lot of poison oak.

0:35:41.080 --> 0:35:42.919
<v Speaker 1>So it's kind of a real hassle to hunt there.

0:35:43.120 --> 0:35:45.560
<v Speaker 3>And they had they been dug in where they were bedded,

0:35:45.600 --> 0:35:48.040
<v Speaker 3>and you kind of stuck on. I'd get out early

0:35:48.080 --> 0:35:49.040
<v Speaker 3>and it was hard.

0:35:49.040 --> 0:35:50.479
<v Speaker 1>It was like, I don't want to say it was hard,

0:35:51.080 --> 0:35:53.120
<v Speaker 1>not hard hunt, not like hunting here. It was you

0:35:53.160 --> 0:35:57.799
<v Speaker 1>had to like think yeah and try. And the trick

0:35:57.960 --> 0:36:01.880
<v Speaker 1>was to catch them headed the bedding at daybreak or

0:36:01.960 --> 0:36:04.720
<v Speaker 1>to catch him popping out of bedding in the evening.

0:36:04.840 --> 0:36:06.319
<v Speaker 5>And it was it felt more like.

0:36:06.400 --> 0:36:11.160
<v Speaker 1>A glassing spot and stalk deer hunt in this area

0:36:11.320 --> 0:36:15.600
<v Speaker 1>to the point where a friend of mine from school,

0:36:15.719 --> 0:36:18.560
<v Speaker 1>her dad ran cattle on a number of places, and

0:36:18.600 --> 0:36:20.640
<v Speaker 1>she I said, oh, you can come on pigs. But

0:36:20.719 --> 0:36:23.000
<v Speaker 1>he was to the point where he would sometimes wonder

0:36:23.040 --> 0:36:27.080
<v Speaker 1>if he even had any pigs at on the ranches

0:36:27.200 --> 0:36:30.200
<v Speaker 1>at the time, because of they were so subject to

0:36:30.280 --> 0:36:33.960
<v Speaker 1>water and when when stuff was dry, he felt that

0:36:34.000 --> 0:36:36.080
<v Speaker 1>they were gone. When stuff was wet, they were there.

0:36:36.600 --> 0:36:38.800
<v Speaker 1>So I never saw anything like what we saw today

0:36:38.840 --> 0:36:40.960
<v Speaker 1>for some years because for a while that was the

0:36:40.960 --> 0:36:43.880
<v Speaker 1>pig hunting I did. Yeah, was like, I hope I

0:36:43.960 --> 0:36:47.000
<v Speaker 1>get one pig hunting in California.

0:36:47.560 --> 0:36:50.520
<v Speaker 3>I went another time with this. He was a pretty

0:36:50.520 --> 0:36:53.640
<v Speaker 3>well known bow hunter. One time, Ray Howell and we

0:36:53.640 --> 0:36:56.800
<v Speaker 3>were down and they were in like, uh, in the oats,

0:36:56.880 --> 0:36:59.880
<v Speaker 3>like like a whet or a wheat field, and uh.

0:37:00.040 --> 0:37:02.799
<v Speaker 3>It reminded me of hunting carp when the carp were

0:37:02.800 --> 0:37:04.719
<v Speaker 3>spawning and they're like kind of in the water and

0:37:04.719 --> 0:37:07.480
<v Speaker 3>you can see the grass kind of moving around, so

0:37:07.600 --> 0:37:10.400
<v Speaker 3>you'd see the you know, the the wheat moving around

0:37:10.480 --> 0:37:12.439
<v Speaker 3>and you're like, oh God. So you sneak up there

0:37:12.560 --> 0:37:15.479
<v Speaker 3>and you'd get i mean sometimes from me to Corin,

0:37:15.800 --> 0:37:19.080
<v Speaker 3>oh yeah, because they're they just don't know, they can't

0:37:19.080 --> 0:37:21.839
<v Speaker 3>see anything. They can't see anyway, but they couldn't hear,

0:37:21.960 --> 0:37:23.719
<v Speaker 3>couldn't whatever. You get the wind right, you get right

0:37:23.719 --> 0:37:25.520
<v Speaker 3>there and you just kind of almost shoot them like

0:37:25.520 --> 0:37:28.200
<v Speaker 3>a carp. And I shot this one one time. We

0:37:28.200 --> 0:37:30.840
<v Speaker 3>were filming it. I have the footage somewhere, but it

0:37:30.840 --> 0:37:33.520
<v Speaker 3>it ran right at me and ran between my legs.

0:37:33.520 --> 0:37:35.800
<v Speaker 3>I went like this kind of raised one leg between

0:37:35.840 --> 0:37:39.520
<v Speaker 3>my legs and we were had the We had got

0:37:39.560 --> 0:37:42.240
<v Speaker 3>a big kick out of that. But for a moment,

0:37:42.920 --> 0:37:47.080
<v Speaker 3>I felt like Max, I definitely would have.

0:37:47.160 --> 0:37:54.439
<v Speaker 5>Jumped up, and you felt like, yeah, yeah, so.

0:37:55.000 --> 0:37:56.799
<v Speaker 3>It was pretty fun. So I don't know how many

0:37:56.840 --> 0:37:59.400
<v Speaker 3>I've killed, but I haven't done it in a while. This,

0:37:59.600 --> 0:38:02.720
<v Speaker 3>you know, this invite came. You and Joe had planned

0:38:02.719 --> 0:38:04.440
<v Speaker 3>on doing thestry plan of doing a deer hunt that

0:38:04.480 --> 0:38:07.400
<v Speaker 3>fell through than this, and then you know you and

0:38:07.480 --> 0:38:09.759
<v Speaker 3>Joe somehow invited me and so here I am and

0:38:10.120 --> 0:38:12.680
<v Speaker 3>didn't plan on it, but I'm very thankful that i'm here.

0:38:12.840 --> 0:38:15.840
<v Speaker 1>When I asked Joe, I said, do you think Cam

0:38:15.960 --> 0:38:18.520
<v Speaker 1>would want to go? Because Joe said, well, let's just

0:38:18.560 --> 0:38:20.480
<v Speaker 1>go back for pigs. And I said, do you think

0:38:20.560 --> 0:38:22.880
<v Speaker 1>Cam would want to go pig hunting with us? And

0:38:22.920 --> 0:38:25.960
<v Speaker 1>he said I can one hundred percent say he would.

0:38:27.520 --> 0:38:31.560
<v Speaker 3>I've never turned down a bow hunt. I mean, people

0:38:31.600 --> 0:38:34.719
<v Speaker 3>could ask you want to bow hunt anything anywhere and

0:38:34.760 --> 0:38:37.960
<v Speaker 3>I'll be like, yeah, don't even have to wonder.

0:38:38.080 --> 0:38:40.279
<v Speaker 1>So okay, but let's say I want to get back

0:38:40.280 --> 0:38:42.040
<v Speaker 1>in the pigs have turkeys. I want to get back

0:38:42.040 --> 0:38:44.480
<v Speaker 1>in the pig on more and say this. Let's say

0:38:44.520 --> 0:38:46.719
<v Speaker 1>I said, for whatever reason, I said, hey, we're going

0:38:46.800 --> 0:38:49.360
<v Speaker 1>to go down to this place, but here's the deal.

0:38:51.840 --> 0:38:52.880
<v Speaker 5>On this ranch.

0:38:53.480 --> 0:38:59.520
<v Speaker 1>By declaration of God and man, you can't hunt with

0:38:59.520 --> 0:38:59.879
<v Speaker 1>the boat.

0:39:00.760 --> 0:39:02.520
<v Speaker 5>You would have said, yeah, I'll stay home.

0:39:03.320 --> 0:39:08.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean, I just I mean, I just don't

0:39:08.280 --> 0:39:10.799
<v Speaker 3>like shooting. No, I don't have anything against it. I

0:39:10.840 --> 0:39:13.080
<v Speaker 3>take I take people out rifle hunting all the time,

0:39:13.080 --> 0:39:16.080
<v Speaker 3>and I'm I love seeing people be successful and being

0:39:16.080 --> 0:39:19.400
<v Speaker 3>immersed in my lifestyle, which is hunting. I don't separate

0:39:19.440 --> 0:39:22.080
<v Speaker 3>myself bow hunter, right, I think we're all together, but

0:39:22.239 --> 0:39:25.680
<v Speaker 3>me personally, I just can't get excited about it. I can't.

0:39:26.600 --> 0:39:29.239
<v Speaker 3>I just love the like this morning was perfect. I

0:39:29.280 --> 0:39:32.680
<v Speaker 3>love spawn stalking. Getting in there, you know, you got

0:39:32.680 --> 0:39:34.760
<v Speaker 3>to look at the animal, the position of the animal.

0:39:35.080 --> 0:39:39.040
<v Speaker 3>You know, these these bores they have shields on their shoulders,

0:39:39.080 --> 0:39:41.880
<v Speaker 3>so you got to think about where that arrow is entering.

0:39:42.040 --> 0:39:45.200
<v Speaker 3>You got to think about I just love the strategy

0:39:45.280 --> 0:39:47.840
<v Speaker 3>of bow hunting and then watching that arrow, you know,

0:39:48.640 --> 0:39:51.120
<v Speaker 3>find it smart, find a smart drop in and it's

0:39:51.160 --> 0:39:54.600
<v Speaker 3>like I just have It's just I'm a bow hunter.

0:39:54.719 --> 0:39:56.759
<v Speaker 3>That's just all. Yeah, that's all I am.

0:39:57.280 --> 0:39:59.600
<v Speaker 1>Man talking to you, hanging out, he makes you feel

0:39:59.600 --> 0:40:04.480
<v Speaker 1>like I need to. I don't know, it makes you

0:40:04.480 --> 0:40:09.800
<v Speaker 1>feel like I do like I do, like I do everything,

0:40:11.000 --> 0:40:14.560
<v Speaker 1>which means you don't get good as much, do you

0:40:14.600 --> 0:40:17.040
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean? Yeah, I like to go trapping,

0:40:17.440 --> 0:40:20.160
<v Speaker 1>I like to go predator calling. I like to go

0:40:20.280 --> 0:40:28.520
<v Speaker 1>deep dropping, shallow fishing, ice fishing, fishing, bow hunting, gun hunting, yeah,

0:40:28.560 --> 0:40:32.400
<v Speaker 1>knife hunt, you know what I mean? Like whatever, Yeah,

0:40:32.440 --> 0:40:35.680
<v Speaker 1>And that's understand. It keeps you from ever being It

0:40:35.800 --> 0:40:39.080
<v Speaker 1>keeps you from ever being where you're just an absolute.

0:40:39.080 --> 0:40:42.839
<v Speaker 7>Master at some pursuit, your jack of all trades, master

0:40:42.920 --> 0:40:43.239
<v Speaker 7>of none.

0:40:43.320 --> 0:40:45.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, like you've dedicated yourself to water following.

0:40:46.040 --> 0:40:48.759
<v Speaker 7>Yeah right, I mean it just started getting into the

0:40:48.800 --> 0:40:49.239
<v Speaker 7>big game.

0:40:50.000 --> 0:40:52.640
<v Speaker 3>So you know, you did ask if I ever I

0:40:52.680 --> 0:40:56.319
<v Speaker 3>think bird hunt or whatever else, and I don't. This

0:40:56.360 --> 0:40:58.960
<v Speaker 3>is all I do, big game, bow hunt. That's all

0:40:59.000 --> 0:41:02.520
<v Speaker 3>I care about. So I don't know. I mean, maybe

0:41:02.560 --> 0:41:05.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm missing out on experiencing these other, you know, pursuits,

0:41:06.200 --> 0:41:08.399
<v Speaker 3>which I'm sure are great, and maybe I would grow

0:41:08.440 --> 0:41:11.880
<v Speaker 3>in some way because of them, and maybe interact with

0:41:11.880 --> 0:41:14.880
<v Speaker 3>people that I wouldn't otherwise, and that would be rewarding,

0:41:14.960 --> 0:41:18.560
<v Speaker 3>but I don't care about that.

0:41:21.000 --> 0:41:24.000
<v Speaker 1>I mentioned knife hunting half joking, but then I realized

0:41:24.040 --> 0:41:30.040
<v Speaker 1>on the subject of pigs, I've done the in New Zealand,

0:41:31.120 --> 0:41:36.080
<v Speaker 1>in Hawaii and in Florida. I've gone out with guys

0:41:36.200 --> 0:41:40.319
<v Speaker 1>doing the dog hunting where you just in the end,

0:41:40.360 --> 0:41:42.480
<v Speaker 1>all you're doing is dispatching the pig with a knife,

0:41:42.600 --> 0:41:44.600
<v Speaker 1>murdering it with a knife.

0:41:45.200 --> 0:41:47.359
<v Speaker 3>That's what it feels like to me. It's like, I mean,

0:41:47.400 --> 0:41:51.320
<v Speaker 3>it feels like it's got to be like somebody somebody's

0:41:51.320 --> 0:41:53.839
<v Speaker 3>stabbing somebody else. It's exactly what it is.

0:41:53.960 --> 0:41:57.759
<v Speaker 1>And the crazy thing about it is you think, like,

0:41:57.800 --> 0:42:02.839
<v Speaker 1>if you imagine a arrow a broadhead as a it's

0:42:02.840 --> 0:42:07.760
<v Speaker 1>a knife tip. You think nothing of delivering that knife

0:42:07.800 --> 0:42:10.640
<v Speaker 1>tip that weird into the heart of that pig. But man,

0:42:10.760 --> 0:42:15.040
<v Speaker 1>someone sticks that knife in your hand and you're You're like, no,

0:42:15.080 --> 0:42:17.759
<v Speaker 1>I get it right in the heart. It feels you

0:42:17.840 --> 0:42:19.359
<v Speaker 1>have to talk yourself into it.

0:42:19.480 --> 0:42:23.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's the the feeling of the pushing it in something.

0:42:24.239 --> 0:42:26.960
<v Speaker 3>You know you don't feel that arrow. You're not controlling

0:42:26.960 --> 0:42:30.800
<v Speaker 3>that arrow by by your hand, So feeling that cut

0:42:30.840 --> 0:42:36.000
<v Speaker 3>in those times I did it, I like it.

0:42:36.480 --> 0:42:39.840
<v Speaker 1>Uh well, I mean the fact that I went and

0:42:39.840 --> 0:42:41.879
<v Speaker 1>did it again and again and again, and I've done

0:42:42.880 --> 0:42:48.799
<v Speaker 1>too much. But it really drew that question of like what, Yeah,

0:42:48.840 --> 0:42:51.000
<v Speaker 1>with a bullet, you don't think about an arrow, You

0:42:51.000 --> 0:42:52.600
<v Speaker 1>don't think about it, but then when you got to

0:42:52.640 --> 0:42:56.000
<v Speaker 1>do it up close, it just makes you view it differently. Yeah,

0:42:56.320 --> 0:42:57.880
<v Speaker 1>And that that's actually the thing I want to talk

0:42:57.920 --> 0:43:04.439
<v Speaker 1>about a little bit with with pigs. Earlier I made

0:43:04.440 --> 0:43:09.000
<v Speaker 1>the joke that there's sort of no crime that can

0:43:09.040 --> 0:43:13.160
<v Speaker 1>be committed against pigs, that some people would feel was

0:43:13.200 --> 0:43:17.520
<v Speaker 1>gone too far. The other day, my little boy, my

0:43:17.560 --> 0:43:20.960
<v Speaker 1>older boy, got he's now armed with the phone, which

0:43:21.040 --> 0:43:23.240
<v Speaker 1>we have my wife and I have very mixed feelings about,

0:43:23.280 --> 0:43:25.680
<v Speaker 1>but it just it felt like an inevitability. He now

0:43:25.800 --> 0:43:28.719
<v Speaker 1>has a phone. So my little boy, who's far away

0:43:28.760 --> 0:43:32.520
<v Speaker 1>from getting a phone, comes to me all upset because

0:43:32.600 --> 0:43:36.040
<v Speaker 1>the thing that his brother showed him, who likes watching

0:43:36.120 --> 0:43:39.560
<v Speaker 1>hunting stuff. His singing brother showed him where they were

0:43:39.960 --> 0:43:43.400
<v Speaker 1>some video where it's just they were out, sounds like

0:43:43.400 --> 0:43:47.320
<v Speaker 1>they were out with pistols, semi auto pistols. In a truck,

0:43:48.440 --> 0:43:50.400
<v Speaker 1>and from the description My Little Boy game, he's like

0:43:50.400 --> 0:43:52.719
<v Speaker 1>more or lessre's a video about running pigs over with

0:43:52.760 --> 0:43:56.080
<v Speaker 1>a truck, running him down, running him over, and you

0:43:56.120 --> 0:43:58.359
<v Speaker 1>see all kinds of things like this, and you go

0:43:58.920 --> 0:44:03.359
<v Speaker 1>and it's it's it's a complex thing because there is

0:44:04.600 --> 0:44:09.360
<v Speaker 1>like state sponsored across wild pig range. There are state

0:44:09.520 --> 0:44:16.120
<v Speaker 1>sponsored efforts to eradicate which is unrealistic, but I say

0:44:16.120 --> 0:44:20.279
<v Speaker 1>that in some border states there's a plan to eradicate

0:44:20.320 --> 0:44:23.319
<v Speaker 1>pigs from the landscape, and in some places are just

0:44:23.320 --> 0:44:26.520
<v Speaker 1>a very concerted effort to control pigs. So you have

0:44:26.600 --> 0:44:30.440
<v Speaker 1>like state sponsored pig killing where you're just trying to

0:44:30.480 --> 0:44:33.120
<v Speaker 1>like reduce numbers, the same way they might go to

0:44:33.320 --> 0:44:35.880
<v Speaker 1>an island and the galop aghost and try to remove

0:44:35.960 --> 0:44:38.000
<v Speaker 1>goats by any means necessary.

0:44:38.280 --> 0:44:38.600
<v Speaker 5>Whatever.

0:44:38.719 --> 0:44:42.319
<v Speaker 3>The thing that happens with that cows, it's a thing

0:44:42.360 --> 0:44:42.880
<v Speaker 3>that happens.

0:44:42.880 --> 0:44:45.920
<v Speaker 1>But I think kind of like from the fact that

0:44:46.080 --> 0:44:48.520
<v Speaker 1>when I first started hunting, the first pig hunts I

0:44:48.600 --> 0:44:53.880
<v Speaker 1>did were like it was big game hunting for pigs,

0:44:54.360 --> 0:44:57.799
<v Speaker 1>and so I think that you fall into this thing

0:44:57.880 --> 0:45:01.200
<v Speaker 1>like not living and growing up in wild, big country.

0:45:01.640 --> 0:45:05.319
<v Speaker 1>It's hard for me to jump into. It's hard for

0:45:05.360 --> 0:45:09.800
<v Speaker 1>me a little bit to move out of like game

0:45:09.960 --> 0:45:18.360
<v Speaker 1>animal mindset amount pigs into like like like a basically

0:45:18.360 --> 0:45:21.680
<v Speaker 1>a larger version of a rat, right, which for many

0:45:21.800 --> 0:45:24.759
<v Speaker 1>land managers in place in Texas and other states, it's

0:45:24.800 --> 0:45:28.880
<v Speaker 1>like they are they are an overgrown rat. Yeah vermin,

0:45:29.239 --> 0:45:33.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, yeah, they're destructive disease vectors play your.

0:45:34.719 --> 0:45:36.480
<v Speaker 2>Is that a heavy or a pig's heavy?

0:45:36.760 --> 0:45:36.960
<v Speaker 1>It is?

0:45:38.680 --> 0:45:40.480
<v Speaker 5>Sorry to interrupt, Oh no, you're.

0:45:40.320 --> 0:45:41.399
<v Speaker 2>Fine, You're fine.

0:45:41.840 --> 0:45:44.080
<v Speaker 5>We're here for what.

0:45:44.160 --> 0:45:45.280
<v Speaker 1>Was I hitting them with earlier?

0:45:45.719 --> 0:45:46.520
<v Speaker 5>Squeaky something?

0:45:46.560 --> 0:45:49.160
<v Speaker 1>But I'm telling you they don't come from that distance.

0:45:50.280 --> 0:45:53.560
<v Speaker 1>It won't work. Try I'll try it, But I'm telling

0:45:53.600 --> 0:45:56.840
<v Speaker 1>you now what I've found, Colin Haleine is is you

0:45:56.960 --> 0:46:01.320
<v Speaker 1>gotta be not I didn't discover this, but that it's true.

0:46:01.600 --> 0:46:04.400
<v Speaker 1>And it was the guy that makes J thirteen calls.

0:46:05.560 --> 0:46:08.960
<v Speaker 6>I mean, it's coming closer. How far away is that?

0:46:09.000 --> 0:46:09.560
<v Speaker 6>What do you say?

0:46:11.880 --> 0:46:12.440
<v Speaker 5>Three hundred?

0:46:12.480 --> 0:46:14.920
<v Speaker 3>I can tell you it is.

0:46:19.320 --> 0:46:26.720
<v Speaker 6>No, he's just like obscured behind brush.

0:46:27.120 --> 0:46:29.319
<v Speaker 2>Let me get back to what I was saying. I'm

0:46:29.320 --> 0:46:31.480
<v Speaker 2>gonna give all the arguments as as part of what

0:46:31.480 --> 0:46:31.839
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying.

0:46:31.840 --> 0:46:35.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna give you all the arguments against pigs, disease, vectors,

0:46:38.440 --> 0:46:43.400
<v Speaker 1>competition for food with native wildlife, Destroyers of ground nesting

0:46:43.440 --> 0:46:46.840
<v Speaker 1>birds so a wild native ground resting birds so, destroyers

0:46:46.840 --> 0:46:49.920
<v Speaker 1>of turkey nests because they eat the eggs, destroyers of

0:46:49.960 --> 0:46:55.440
<v Speaker 1>quail nests because they eat the eggs. They are agricultural

0:46:55.480 --> 0:47:00.680
<v Speaker 1>pasts because they till up agricultural ground. They have a

0:47:00.800 --> 0:47:03.480
<v Speaker 1>negative impact on water quality because they were rooting the

0:47:03.560 --> 0:47:08.800
<v Speaker 1>mud and denude banks of vegetation. What else. There's probably

0:47:08.800 --> 0:47:17.799
<v Speaker 1>more bad things about pigs, bad old brace But I

0:47:17.840 --> 0:47:21.960
<v Speaker 1>can't get I can't find my way into the I

0:47:22.000 --> 0:47:24.600
<v Speaker 1>can't find my way into the pig eradication mindset.

0:47:24.800 --> 0:47:29.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you know, I think when I was younger, I

0:47:29.480 --> 0:47:33.279
<v Speaker 3>could easily. I didn't really care about Oh, I could kill,

0:47:33.400 --> 0:47:36.840
<v Speaker 3>unbridled killing and never think one thing about it. Now,

0:47:37.360 --> 0:47:40.600
<v Speaker 3>like even like if I'm driving and you know how

0:47:40.760 --> 0:47:42.560
<v Speaker 3>a possua might run across the road or is like,

0:47:42.600 --> 0:47:44.680
<v Speaker 3>I don't want to hit a squirrel apostle. I don't

0:47:44.680 --> 0:47:47.919
<v Speaker 3>want to hit I will feel terrible if I hit something. Yeah,

0:47:47.960 --> 0:47:51.960
<v Speaker 3>and that before when I was a kid, I was

0:47:52.000 --> 0:47:54.439
<v Speaker 3>almost cool. I couldn't. I don't know, I just yeah,

0:47:54.480 --> 0:47:57.279
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I remember we driving down the logging road.

0:47:57.400 --> 0:47:59.680
<v Speaker 3>Kyote would come out for some reason. They stay on

0:47:59.719 --> 0:48:02.480
<v Speaker 3>the road and just driving and run them right over.

0:48:03.280 --> 0:48:04.399
<v Speaker 3>I could never do that now.

0:48:05.040 --> 0:48:07.480
<v Speaker 1>So what do you think.

0:48:09.160 --> 0:48:10.640
<v Speaker 6>Made the change for you?

0:48:11.440 --> 0:48:14.680
<v Speaker 3>Just maturing, I think, and just you know, just growing up.

0:48:14.840 --> 0:48:17.640
<v Speaker 3>The more you hunt, the more you kill, the more

0:48:17.680 --> 0:48:19.680
<v Speaker 3>you care about It's the one thing that's how you

0:48:19.840 --> 0:48:23.120
<v Speaker 3>respect life because you're taking it. You understand you know,

0:48:23.200 --> 0:48:26.920
<v Speaker 3>life and death more and uh, you know more evolved mindset.

0:48:28.280 --> 0:48:31.240
<v Speaker 3>So that's just part of it. And that's one reason

0:48:31.280 --> 0:48:35.200
<v Speaker 3>I think anti hunters are so misguided. They haven't been

0:48:35.280 --> 0:48:37.480
<v Speaker 3>involved in the circle of life. You know, they have

0:48:37.640 --> 0:48:39.719
<v Speaker 3>because they're paying somebody to do their killing for them,

0:48:40.040 --> 0:48:43.239
<v Speaker 3>but they haven't done the killing themselves. So they don't

0:48:43.280 --> 0:48:46.080
<v Speaker 3>really respect life. And that's why they threaten people and

0:48:46.440 --> 0:48:49.000
<v Speaker 3>you know, threaten people's life for hunting and things like that,

0:48:49.080 --> 0:48:51.440
<v Speaker 3>just because they don't get it. So it's that's a

0:48:51.480 --> 0:48:54.240
<v Speaker 3>big advantage to being a hunter, is you you immerse

0:48:54.239 --> 0:48:56.239
<v Speaker 3>yourself in this. We have blood on our hands, so

0:48:56.280 --> 0:48:59.240
<v Speaker 3>it doesn't mean that we don't care. We care deeply,

0:49:00.440 --> 0:49:02.120
<v Speaker 3>but it's just part of what we do. So I

0:49:02.160 --> 0:49:05.719
<v Speaker 3>think that's just I think it's just part of maturing

0:49:05.760 --> 0:49:07.560
<v Speaker 3>and you know, evolving as a hunter.

0:49:08.560 --> 0:49:10.279
<v Speaker 1>I think one of the parts of the messes with

0:49:10.320 --> 0:49:15.359
<v Speaker 1>me a little bit. The big thing is that they

0:49:15.560 --> 0:49:19.920
<v Speaker 1>are there. They can be a little challenging to deal with,

0:49:20.000 --> 0:49:22.920
<v Speaker 1>but they are edible. And when you go to the store,

0:49:23.120 --> 0:49:24.440
<v Speaker 1>they're selling pork.

0:49:24.800 --> 0:49:25.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:49:25.440 --> 0:49:31.319
<v Speaker 1>And so then if you do, you know, to do

0:49:31.480 --> 0:49:35.000
<v Speaker 1>like eradication efforts, you can't help but look and think, oh, man,

0:49:35.080 --> 0:49:37.000
<v Speaker 1>look at all that. Like I remember my buddy that

0:49:37.080 --> 0:49:40.200
<v Speaker 1>works at a my body works at a place that

0:49:40.600 --> 0:49:43.520
<v Speaker 1>supplies the grocery stores. And now and then they'll have

0:49:43.560 --> 0:49:46.640
<v Speaker 1>a disaster where something will happen to a truck, you know,

0:49:46.800 --> 0:49:49.399
<v Speaker 1>and you'll send me pictures like, holy shit, You'll send

0:49:49.440 --> 0:49:52.360
<v Speaker 1>me pictures of some giant dumpster full of like food

0:49:52.680 --> 0:49:57.640
<v Speaker 1>that whatever got wrong, temperature, whatever got recalled whatever. You

0:49:57.680 --> 0:50:00.200
<v Speaker 1>look at that and it strikes you're like, dah, what

0:50:00.239 --> 0:50:00.960
<v Speaker 1>a waste man.

0:50:01.080 --> 0:50:01.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know.

0:50:01.840 --> 0:50:04.160
<v Speaker 1>And I remember one time I went to at one time,

0:50:04.200 --> 0:50:06.760
<v Speaker 1>I went to a shark I went to a shark

0:50:06.840 --> 0:50:12.440
<v Speaker 1>derby and what's that. It was like a like a

0:50:12.520 --> 0:50:18.280
<v Speaker 1>fish fishing competition for sharks. And it surprised me because

0:50:18.320 --> 0:50:21.399
<v Speaker 1>mako's are good, but a lot of the guys would

0:50:21.400 --> 0:50:23.800
<v Speaker 1>bring in blue sharks, and blue sharks have a bad reputation.

0:50:23.840 --> 0:50:25.319
<v Speaker 2>Is food to have a lot of urea, so they.

0:50:25.320 --> 0:50:27.640
<v Speaker 1>K have a pissy smell and pissy taste to them.

0:50:28.239 --> 0:50:33.240
<v Speaker 1>But seeing that volume of blue sharks in a dumpster

0:50:34.160 --> 0:50:36.279
<v Speaker 1>just felt different to me than if I saw a

0:50:36.360 --> 0:50:41.680
<v Speaker 1>dumpster full of rats, you know, and someone's gonna point out, well,

0:50:41.719 --> 0:50:45.120
<v Speaker 1>you need rats, but it's like, I don't eat rats. Yeah,

0:50:45.600 --> 0:50:48.000
<v Speaker 1>So that's like part of why the hog thing and

0:50:48.080 --> 0:50:50.520
<v Speaker 1>even this spot, like this place for hunting.

0:50:50.719 --> 0:50:52.040
<v Speaker 5>This guy's they got.

0:50:52.200 --> 0:50:57.000
<v Speaker 1>Right now, too many hogs. I've never seen it like it.

0:50:57.120 --> 0:50:59.520
<v Speaker 1>It sounds like he's perhaps never seen this many around.

0:51:00.000 --> 0:51:01.640
<v Speaker 1>He's got too many. He's like, just try to get

0:51:01.719 --> 0:51:04.080
<v Speaker 1>rid of them, and you still get up there. You're like, oh, man,

0:51:04.120 --> 0:51:07.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I can like just get a

0:51:07.120 --> 0:51:09.760
<v Speaker 1>whole lot, like I can't jump out of big game

0:51:09.800 --> 0:51:13.040
<v Speaker 1>mode on pigs, you know, probably largely from being from

0:51:13.040 --> 0:51:13.480
<v Speaker 1>the north.

0:51:13.880 --> 0:51:19.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, that's I mean, even when I killed that

0:51:19.200 --> 0:51:23.200
<v Speaker 3>that board today, it's like I feel the same as

0:51:23.239 --> 0:51:24.600
<v Speaker 3>if I killed a bull.

0:51:24.960 --> 0:51:25.160
<v Speaker 2>You know.

0:51:25.280 --> 0:51:28.240
<v Speaker 3>It's just I still respect that life, and it still

0:51:28.400 --> 0:51:31.880
<v Speaker 3>impacts me. I killed it. I'm I'm that was the goal,

0:51:32.000 --> 0:51:35.680
<v Speaker 3>to kill a pig. I did it. But I still

0:51:35.719 --> 0:51:38.040
<v Speaker 3>respect that. And it's like, I don't know, I don't

0:51:38.080 --> 0:51:43.000
<v Speaker 3>know why I think that's just yeah, I don't know.

0:51:43.160 --> 0:51:46.040
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I'm I just know I'm getting softer in

0:51:46.040 --> 0:51:48.880
<v Speaker 3>my old age human.

0:51:49.080 --> 0:51:52.400
<v Speaker 8>I just wonder why why we think of that as soft,

0:51:52.760 --> 0:51:55.080
<v Speaker 8>you know, for example, as opposed to.

0:52:00.239 --> 0:52:02.000
<v Speaker 6>More thoughtful about it.

0:52:02.120 --> 0:52:04.680
<v Speaker 1>You know, I think it's I think it's because i'd

0:52:04.680 --> 0:52:05.239
<v Speaker 1>say the same thing.

0:52:05.239 --> 0:52:06.400
<v Speaker 3>I think it's soft.

0:52:06.200 --> 0:52:09.759
<v Speaker 1>Relative to what you were, right, Yeah, soft relative to

0:52:09.800 --> 0:52:10.200
<v Speaker 1>what you were.

0:52:10.520 --> 0:52:14.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I feel better about it. I mean, it doesn't

0:52:14.560 --> 0:52:16.879
<v Speaker 3>feel good sometimes, and I mean I don't it doesn't

0:52:16.920 --> 0:52:19.960
<v Speaker 3>feel bad, but I mean I feel like it's a

0:52:20.000 --> 0:52:23.480
<v Speaker 3>more honest approach than what I how I looked at

0:52:23.520 --> 0:52:25.400
<v Speaker 3>things when I was younger. I think that when I

0:52:25.400 --> 0:52:29.759
<v Speaker 3>was younger, I was immature and I wasn't seeing that the

0:52:29.840 --> 0:52:31.879
<v Speaker 3>full scope of what it meant to be a hunter.

0:52:33.120 --> 0:52:34.839
<v Speaker 3>It was just, oh, we just killed shit.

0:52:35.080 --> 0:52:39.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I've noticed in my older age, I guess only

0:52:39.760 --> 0:52:43.719
<v Speaker 2>thirty two, not old, but soft but not old.

0:52:47.120 --> 0:52:52.200
<v Speaker 1>Well, if this is as hard, if this is the

0:52:52.280 --> 0:52:56.759
<v Speaker 1>apex of hardness and it only gets soft.

0:52:58.040 --> 0:52:59.760
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, this is not a good feature.

0:53:01.880 --> 0:53:07.640
<v Speaker 2>I've noticed, like dispatching animals in traps is like not

0:53:07.760 --> 0:53:09.920
<v Speaker 2>as easy as it used to be. I don't know

0:53:09.920 --> 0:53:12.799
<v Speaker 2>if you've if you ever got that way or feel

0:53:12.800 --> 0:53:16.040
<v Speaker 2>that way. But like I'm don't get me wrong, I'll

0:53:16.040 --> 0:53:19.080
<v Speaker 2>still I'm still gonna trap and kill animals in like

0:53:19.160 --> 0:53:21.239
<v Speaker 2>feet away from me, in a trap where they can't

0:53:21.280 --> 0:53:25.480
<v Speaker 2>get away. But it just like something about it feels different.

0:53:25.120 --> 0:53:27.600
<v Speaker 1>These das Man. That's interesting to bring that up because

0:53:27.719 --> 0:53:30.080
<v Speaker 1>I noticed that, like I used to if I used

0:53:30.080 --> 0:53:31.840
<v Speaker 1>to come up on something, if I when I was

0:53:32.560 --> 0:53:35.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, high school, early college and really trap and

0:53:35.200 --> 0:53:38.040
<v Speaker 1>hard and I came up on a fox that I caught,

0:53:39.480 --> 0:53:42.919
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't get that thing dead quick enough, not out

0:53:42.960 --> 0:53:44.080
<v Speaker 1>of like getting it over with.

0:53:44.560 --> 0:53:45.960
<v Speaker 5>It was just jubilation.

0:53:46.120 --> 0:53:50.880
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, zero thought.

0:53:51.160 --> 0:53:54.680
<v Speaker 1>And now there's a little bit of man, let this guy.

0:53:54.520 --> 0:53:58.440
<v Speaker 2>Go, like that coyote that we caught this year, just

0:53:58.480 --> 0:54:01.000
<v Speaker 2>walking up on it and that thing like it ain't

0:54:01.000 --> 0:54:04.800
<v Speaker 2>getting away from you. No. But with that being said,

0:54:04.920 --> 0:54:07.239
<v Speaker 2>like I'm gonna do it again next year. Yeah, it

0:54:07.400 --> 0:54:07.920
<v Speaker 2>is like a.

0:54:09.920 --> 0:54:16.000
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, kably allowing yourself to Uh. I don't know whether

0:54:16.040 --> 0:54:20.040
<v Speaker 8>it's projection or accepting reality. Like you're looking at something

0:54:20.040 --> 0:54:23.399
<v Speaker 8>that in the moment is helpless and you know you're

0:54:23.480 --> 0:54:25.080
<v Speaker 8>just allowing yourself to feel it.

0:54:25.360 --> 0:54:30.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, my wife more and more thinks that. My wife

0:54:30.120 --> 0:54:35.719
<v Speaker 1>more and more thinks that this sort of like overriding

0:54:35.760 --> 0:54:41.080
<v Speaker 1>theory that that we're governed by, uh, we're governed by.

0:54:41.000 --> 0:54:41.880
<v Speaker 2>Fear of death.

0:54:43.280 --> 0:54:46.480
<v Speaker 6>As you get older, she tries, She tries to.

0:54:46.400 --> 0:54:48.120
<v Speaker 1>Pin a lot of stuff on fear of death.

0:54:48.880 --> 0:54:51.040
<v Speaker 3>I don't. I don't think about myself at all in

0:54:51.080 --> 0:54:52.920
<v Speaker 3>those moments. I mean, I don't know if it's subconsciously

0:54:52.960 --> 0:54:56.560
<v Speaker 3>I am, but to me personally, it doesn't feel like

0:54:56.600 --> 0:54:57.440
<v Speaker 3>that's what's going on.

0:54:57.719 --> 0:55:01.080
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, maybe some I agree with that.

0:55:01.200 --> 0:55:01.399
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:55:01.440 --> 0:55:04.000
<v Speaker 2>I just when I'm when I'm about to kill a

0:55:04.040 --> 0:55:07.200
<v Speaker 2>kyo in a travel it feels like I'm not thinking

0:55:07.200 --> 0:55:08.880
<v Speaker 2>about personal death.

0:55:10.480 --> 0:55:12.200
<v Speaker 1>Another thing my wife just told me has nothing to

0:55:12.200 --> 0:55:17.359
<v Speaker 1>do with hogs or killing, is it? She said, there

0:55:17.400 --> 0:55:19.120
<v Speaker 1>is no baby named Steve.

0:55:22.320 --> 0:55:23.880
<v Speaker 2>That's so true.

0:55:24.080 --> 0:55:26.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, she said.

0:55:26.200 --> 0:55:28.880
<v Speaker 1>You would never to a million years go to someone's

0:55:28.920 --> 0:55:32.160
<v Speaker 1>house and there's a baby and they're going You're like, oh,

0:55:32.239 --> 0:55:35.080
<v Speaker 1>what's the baby's name. They would never be a million

0:55:35.160 --> 0:55:39.360
<v Speaker 1>years ago. It's Steve. That baby's name is Steve.

0:55:42.520 --> 0:55:43.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:55:43.480 --> 0:55:46.040
<v Speaker 8>Oh wait, someone found Oh I should have put it

0:55:46.080 --> 0:55:48.399
<v Speaker 8>in talking points because we have no reception. I won't

0:55:48.440 --> 0:55:53.240
<v Speaker 8>be able to insert it. But someone found a quote

0:55:54.160 --> 0:55:59.880
<v Speaker 8>I think it was from a Japanese author translated about

0:56:00.200 --> 0:56:06.080
<v Speaker 8>the baby face old man face. Hmmm, someone wrote in

0:56:06.120 --> 0:56:07.840
<v Speaker 8>about that they like identify the.

0:56:08.680 --> 0:56:10.359
<v Speaker 1>Youngest babies have the oldest face.

0:56:10.560 --> 0:56:13.520
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, there was, but there was a there was something similar,

0:56:13.520 --> 0:56:16.440
<v Speaker 8>but it was a in a book by a Japanese author.

0:56:17.440 --> 0:56:18.239
<v Speaker 6>I'll show that to you.

0:56:18.560 --> 0:56:20.080
<v Speaker 1>So that's on my mind that the world's going to

0:56:20.200 --> 0:56:21.080
<v Speaker 1>run out of Steve's.

0:56:21.880 --> 0:56:24.920
<v Speaker 3>So either you were born with some other name or

0:56:24.960 --> 0:56:27.680
<v Speaker 3>you were born thirty years old. Which one was it?

0:56:27.719 --> 0:56:28.680
<v Speaker 5>When I was a kid.

0:56:29.120 --> 0:56:31.640
<v Speaker 1>When I was a kid, if you said Steve, if

0:56:31.640 --> 0:56:34.279
<v Speaker 1>the teacher said Steve, six kids are going to raise

0:56:34.280 --> 0:56:39.840
<v Speaker 1>their hand. Yeah, And if they said Jenny, six seven

0:56:40.080 --> 0:56:41.239
<v Speaker 1>kids are going to raise their hand.

0:56:42.120 --> 0:56:45.120
<v Speaker 3>Now it could be boys raise their hand for Jenny.

0:56:45.160 --> 0:56:49.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's just or variations on Caden and then

0:56:50.480 --> 0:56:54.600
<v Speaker 1>just know Steve. Anymore Steve's are gone.

0:56:54.960 --> 0:56:56.920
<v Speaker 2>The air of Steve's I hated.

0:56:58.400 --> 0:57:00.120
<v Speaker 3>I hated my name when I was a kid. I

0:57:00.160 --> 0:57:01.919
<v Speaker 3>was like, why can't I just be like a Mic

0:57:02.040 --> 0:57:02.600
<v Speaker 3>or a John.

0:57:02.840 --> 0:57:04.480
<v Speaker 1>Oh, you didn't want to be Cam.

0:57:04.560 --> 0:57:10.879
<v Speaker 3>Nobody's named caming you Cam, Cara, Cameron Cam.

0:57:10.960 --> 0:57:11.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:57:11.719 --> 0:57:14.480
<v Speaker 3>I mean I guess maybe some girls would say Cameron,

0:57:15.239 --> 0:57:18.400
<v Speaker 3>but yeah, Cam stupid.

0:57:19.440 --> 0:57:22.560
<v Speaker 5>I don't think it's I like it.

0:57:22.560 --> 0:57:25.560
<v Speaker 3>It's it's a little more accepted now.

0:57:25.800 --> 0:57:28.160
<v Speaker 2>But it's kind of so fitting though, because you're such

0:57:28.160 --> 0:57:30.960
<v Speaker 2>a bow hunter. You know, cams on a bow. I

0:57:31.000 --> 0:57:35.800
<v Speaker 2>don't know you ever think about that. You know, it

0:57:35.840 --> 0:57:43.080
<v Speaker 2>could have been named Riser or something. You know, yeah, arrow, arrow, broadhead.

0:57:41.760 --> 0:57:45.000
<v Speaker 3>Passed through.

0:57:45.600 --> 0:57:46.640
<v Speaker 5>Dog stabilizer.

0:57:56.600 --> 0:57:59.240
<v Speaker 1>So Cam, what, uh, what's going on in the world

0:57:59.280 --> 0:58:02.240
<v Speaker 1>of we kind of Uh, I'm familiar with what's going

0:58:02.320 --> 0:58:04.720
<v Speaker 1>on in the world with you with huntings. We just

0:58:04.760 --> 0:58:08.960
<v Speaker 1>hunted this morning. What's going on with your your running career?

0:58:09.160 --> 0:58:10.960
<v Speaker 1>You're you're running passion.

0:58:10.840 --> 0:58:11.200
<v Speaker 5>M m.

0:58:12.760 --> 0:58:16.040
<v Speaker 3>Uh it's uh, you know, I'm not getting any younger.

0:58:16.160 --> 0:58:18.400
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but you but when do you jump?

0:58:18.520 --> 0:58:22.120
<v Speaker 1>Like, uh, where do you sit within your age brack,

0:58:22.240 --> 0:58:23.680
<v Speaker 1>because that's kind of thing is that's gotta be the

0:58:23.680 --> 0:58:24.400
<v Speaker 1>things you start.

0:58:24.160 --> 0:58:26.959
<v Speaker 3>Paying attention to, right I don't know. I don't really

0:58:27.000 --> 0:58:28.760
<v Speaker 3>like that. That seems like that. It seems like a

0:58:28.760 --> 0:58:31.960
<v Speaker 3>cop out. It's like, you know, I still want to

0:58:32.000 --> 0:58:35.040
<v Speaker 3>beat all the young guys. Okay, Yeah, Like being the

0:58:35.160 --> 0:58:38.240
<v Speaker 3>fastest old guy would be like being I can't say it,

0:58:38.280 --> 0:58:42.520
<v Speaker 3>yoused to be. There's a saying being the smartest. I

0:58:42.560 --> 0:58:44.840
<v Speaker 3>can't say it now. It's like you get canceled if

0:58:44.840 --> 0:58:45.320
<v Speaker 3>you say it.

0:58:45.440 --> 0:58:47.360
<v Speaker 5>Oh, I don't say that.

0:58:47.960 --> 0:58:51.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so that's like being a fast old guys like,

0:58:51.480 --> 0:58:54.600
<v Speaker 3>uh huh so I just you know I in my

0:58:54.640 --> 0:58:56.919
<v Speaker 3>age group. Yeah, of course I do good because most

0:58:56.920 --> 0:58:57.959
<v Speaker 3>people my age are dead.

0:58:58.120 --> 0:58:59.480
<v Speaker 5>How do the age brackets work?

0:59:00.600 --> 0:59:00.960
<v Speaker 2>Uh?

0:59:01.000 --> 0:59:05.080
<v Speaker 3>It goes. I mean Masters is fortying over, but then

0:59:05.120 --> 0:59:10.720
<v Speaker 3>there's age groups within Masters, so it'd be like senior Masters. No,

0:59:10.760 --> 0:59:13.640
<v Speaker 3>it'd be like fifty to fifty four, fifty five to

0:59:13.640 --> 0:59:15.320
<v Speaker 3>fifty nine. So they caught it thin.

0:59:15.560 --> 0:59:15.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:59:15.840 --> 0:59:16.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:59:16.320 --> 0:59:20.520
<v Speaker 2>So this is for like the what do you call them?

0:59:20.600 --> 0:59:22.000
<v Speaker 2>The races you run?

0:59:22.400 --> 0:59:26.400
<v Speaker 3>Oh, the ultra ultras don't really have. Most good ultrarunners

0:59:26.440 --> 0:59:27.160
<v Speaker 3>are old.

0:59:27.680 --> 0:59:28.000
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

0:59:28.160 --> 0:59:30.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, when you're young, you're faster and more able, but

0:59:30.680 --> 0:59:33.280
<v Speaker 3>you're not mentally tough. So if you're gonna run two

0:59:33.360 --> 0:59:37.919
<v Speaker 3>hundred miles, a young twenty year old is gonna usually

0:59:37.920 --> 0:59:39.680
<v Speaker 3>ship the bed way before the end.

0:59:40.360 --> 0:59:40.640
<v Speaker 2>Really.

0:59:40.760 --> 0:59:45.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so when you're when you're older, you're just you know,

0:59:45.600 --> 0:59:48.240
<v Speaker 3>life has been You've been kicked in the balls a lot,

0:59:48.560 --> 0:59:52.120
<v Speaker 3>you know, so you've been just a hard race is

0:59:52.200 --> 0:59:55.920
<v Speaker 3>just like this is just I'm this is temporary. I'm

0:59:55.920 --> 0:59:58.360
<v Speaker 3>gonna get through it. So you're just more mentally tough.

0:59:59.560 --> 1:00:03.600
<v Speaker 3>Young guys just haven't developed that mental toughness yet, really

1:00:03.680 --> 1:00:05.320
<v Speaker 3>you think so? Oh, I know for a.

1:00:05.240 --> 1:00:06.800
<v Speaker 5>Fact, that's why I jump.

1:00:09.000 --> 1:00:09.680
<v Speaker 2>You guys.

1:00:09.800 --> 1:00:11.880
<v Speaker 3>I guess it's like a different caliber of young guys.

1:00:11.880 --> 1:00:15.280
<v Speaker 1>But it's young guys that go through like the the

1:00:15.280 --> 1:00:17.280
<v Speaker 1>the Ranger course and stuff like that.

1:00:17.360 --> 1:00:20.280
<v Speaker 3>You know, Yeah, there is it's a that's an extreme

1:00:20.480 --> 1:00:24.680
<v Speaker 3>like those guys are they're in the special category.

1:00:24.720 --> 1:00:26.680
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I'm talking in general, you.

1:00:26.640 --> 1:00:30.320
<v Speaker 3>Know, with you Yeah, there's of course there's tough like

1:00:30.680 --> 1:00:35.680
<v Speaker 3>elite well special operator or what is that special operations?

1:00:36.400 --> 1:00:38.600
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, I mean there's there's always freaks out there,

1:00:38.760 --> 1:00:41.640
<v Speaker 3>and there's there's young freaks too. I'm just saying in general,

1:00:41.680 --> 1:00:43.880
<v Speaker 3>when you're young, you're not mentally as tough as you

1:00:43.920 --> 1:00:44.640
<v Speaker 3>are when you're older.

1:00:44.680 --> 1:00:46.840
<v Speaker 1>What is the prime age for the old What do

1:00:46.840 --> 1:00:48.680
<v Speaker 1>you call? I mean, you don't call it ultra marathon? Like,

1:00:48.680 --> 1:00:51.960
<v Speaker 1>what do you call marathon? You call Yeah, but there's

1:00:52.000 --> 1:00:56.320
<v Speaker 1>an off road, but it's like off road, Yeah, it's trail.

1:00:57.080 --> 1:00:57.360
<v Speaker 5>Is there?

1:00:57.440 --> 1:01:00.520
<v Speaker 1>Like is there ultra marathon? It's it's on. Are they

1:01:00.560 --> 1:01:02.480
<v Speaker 1>always off because the road's too hard?

1:01:03.480 --> 1:01:03.720
<v Speaker 5>No?

1:01:03.800 --> 1:01:05.800
<v Speaker 3>I mean there's your body. No, there's some on the

1:01:05.880 --> 1:01:08.439
<v Speaker 3>road too. But that does beat you up for sure.

1:01:08.480 --> 1:01:11.040
<v Speaker 3>I mean the mountains kind of give you. It's it's

1:01:11.080 --> 1:01:13.439
<v Speaker 3>hard because you got the climb, but you are using

1:01:13.440 --> 1:01:16.160
<v Speaker 3>different muscles at different times. When it's like there's a

1:01:16.240 --> 1:01:18.720
<v Speaker 3>race called bad Water one thirty five and it's one

1:01:18.800 --> 1:01:21.560
<v Speaker 3>hundred and thirty five miles in Death Valley. Most of

1:01:21.600 --> 1:01:24.600
<v Speaker 3>it is on road which gets like one hundred and

1:01:24.640 --> 1:01:27.240
<v Speaker 3>thirty degrees. You have to run on the white line

1:01:27.920 --> 1:01:32.200
<v Speaker 3>otherwise your shoes are melting. What yeah, geez. Yeah, it's intense.

1:01:33.040 --> 1:01:38.600
<v Speaker 3>It's intense. So that on the road, very tough, and

1:01:38.640 --> 1:01:41.240
<v Speaker 3>it's the same muscles for one hundred and thirty five miles.

1:01:41.360 --> 1:01:42.120
<v Speaker 5>Have you done that one?

1:01:42.160 --> 1:01:44.280
<v Speaker 3>I haven't done that one? Yeah, no I want to.

1:01:45.400 --> 1:01:48.480
<v Speaker 3>So generally, ultras are in the mountains, but there they

1:01:48.480 --> 1:01:49.080
<v Speaker 3>don't have to be.

1:01:49.200 --> 1:01:50.200
<v Speaker 2>It is my point.

1:01:50.240 --> 1:01:53.800
<v Speaker 3>And to answer your question, Seth, a ultra marathon would

1:01:53.840 --> 1:01:56.680
<v Speaker 3>be anything over a normal marathon. So an ultra marathon

1:01:56.720 --> 1:01:59.120
<v Speaker 3>could range from a fifty k which is about thirty

1:01:59.160 --> 1:02:02.320
<v Speaker 3>one miles. That's a sh ortist ultra thirty one miles too.

1:02:02.920 --> 1:02:07.080
<v Speaker 3>I've done two hundred the MOAB two forty is two

1:02:07.160 --> 1:02:08.440
<v Speaker 3>hundred and forty miles.

1:02:08.880 --> 1:02:11.400
<v Speaker 2>ESZ and that how how long does that take you?

1:02:12.440 --> 1:02:13.800
<v Speaker 3>That took seventy eight hours?

1:02:14.720 --> 1:02:15.800
<v Speaker 2>Are you sleeping at all?

1:02:16.400 --> 1:02:19.760
<v Speaker 3>Two hours? So the clock doesn't stop the best people

1:02:20.680 --> 1:02:24.480
<v Speaker 3>like Courtney, who I run with. She I'm trying to

1:02:24.480 --> 1:02:26.200
<v Speaker 3>think how long she slept in that one she won

1:02:26.240 --> 1:02:31.480
<v Speaker 3>that race. I got like maybe eleventh now I can't remember,

1:02:31.600 --> 1:02:34.520
<v Speaker 3>but eleventh you count eleventh in your.

1:02:34.440 --> 1:02:38.720
<v Speaker 1>Age group or just eleventh eleventh that age with that

1:02:38.800 --> 1:02:39.280
<v Speaker 1>age group.

1:02:39.320 --> 1:02:40.280
<v Speaker 5>Stuff hard man.

1:02:40.360 --> 1:02:43.800
<v Speaker 3>It doesn't that that doesn't work on ultras because I'm

1:02:43.800 --> 1:02:48.240
<v Speaker 3>telling you there's old old in that race. There was

1:02:48.280 --> 1:02:50.880
<v Speaker 3>like a sixty year old woman who beat me. Okay,

1:02:51.000 --> 1:02:55.160
<v Speaker 3>really this freak Pam read she is so good. And women,

1:02:55.320 --> 1:03:01.120
<v Speaker 3>I'll just say this, women and for for like elite

1:03:01.240 --> 1:03:06.640
<v Speaker 3>endurance athletes. Women are I'm not gonna say they're better

1:03:06.680 --> 1:03:09.960
<v Speaker 3>than they're better than most men. The toughest women are

1:03:09.960 --> 1:03:12.840
<v Speaker 3>better than a lot of the best men because they're

1:03:12.920 --> 1:03:15.760
<v Speaker 3>just so much. I think they're built for pain, for

1:03:16.160 --> 1:03:19.360
<v Speaker 3>because of child bearing. I think they deal with pain

1:03:19.480 --> 1:03:23.160
<v Speaker 3>better than men do. That's why Courtney is one races

1:03:23.240 --> 1:03:28.520
<v Speaker 3>outright over elite meno and she's you know, she's not

1:03:28.560 --> 1:03:31.760
<v Speaker 3>gonna be faster. Men will have you know, will be faster,

1:03:31.960 --> 1:03:36.439
<v Speaker 3>be stronger in general over women. But for endurance, it's

1:03:36.840 --> 1:03:39.000
<v Speaker 3>women have an advantage.

1:03:39.200 --> 1:03:43.560
<v Speaker 1>So when you're doing that, at what point, At what

1:03:43.680 --> 1:03:46.200
<v Speaker 1>point do you have a sense that you're gonna do well?

1:03:47.200 --> 1:03:49.160
<v Speaker 1>You know in a given race, Like if I go out,

1:03:49.160 --> 1:03:50.520
<v Speaker 1>if I'm out and I got a high up of

1:03:50.520 --> 1:03:56.160
<v Speaker 1>mountain for whatever reason, messing around, hunting whatever out pretty

1:03:56.240 --> 1:03:57.920
<v Speaker 1>quickly in the day, know that I'm going to tear

1:03:57.960 --> 1:03:59.720
<v Speaker 1>it up or I'll be like, man, this is the

1:04:00.040 --> 1:04:02.240
<v Speaker 1>should this should not feel like it feels.

1:04:02.640 --> 1:04:05.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, those races, because you got seventy eight hours to

1:04:05.120 --> 1:04:08.000
<v Speaker 3>figure it out, so you can start off feeling like shit.

1:04:09.160 --> 1:04:11.280
<v Speaker 3>I mean, there's a lot, a lot of time left

1:04:11.360 --> 1:04:15.040
<v Speaker 3>to recover, so yeah, you just keep and in a

1:04:15.160 --> 1:04:19.040
<v Speaker 3>race like that, I've went the first two hundred mile

1:04:19.080 --> 1:04:21.320
<v Speaker 3>where I did the Big Foot two hundreds in Washington,

1:04:21.360 --> 1:04:25.000
<v Speaker 3>which is freaking super tough. The trails there don't have

1:04:25.120 --> 1:04:26.880
<v Speaker 3>many switchbacks like they do in a lot of the

1:04:26.920 --> 1:04:33.000
<v Speaker 3>Western states for horse packers, a lot of those trails

1:04:33.120 --> 1:04:38.240
<v Speaker 3>will have switchbacks. In Washington for whatever reason, not many switchbacks,

1:04:38.280 --> 1:04:40.640
<v Speaker 3>so you'd gain five thousand feet and it'd be just

1:04:41.080 --> 1:04:44.600
<v Speaker 3>straight up the hill, just ass kicker. But in that

1:04:44.760 --> 1:04:48.360
<v Speaker 3>race I went, and in most long races like this,

1:04:48.480 --> 1:04:51.200
<v Speaker 3>you're up and down, up and down, problem solving, don't

1:04:51.240 --> 1:04:54.000
<v Speaker 3>have enough salt, need more salt, need more, calories, need more,

1:04:54.200 --> 1:04:57.360
<v Speaker 3>you know, get dehydrated. And that one I was winning

1:04:57.440 --> 1:05:00.520
<v Speaker 3>by hours, like I think three hours in the first

1:05:00.560 --> 1:05:03.160
<v Speaker 3>forty miles because I went out too fast, got dehydrated,

1:05:03.560 --> 1:05:06.880
<v Speaker 3>then freaking died, then came back. And by the end

1:05:06.920 --> 1:05:09.280
<v Speaker 3>of the race, my brother was pacing me, who is

1:05:09.560 --> 1:05:12.840
<v Speaker 3>an amazing runner. Taylor is his name. He's a he's

1:05:12.920 --> 1:05:17.760
<v Speaker 3>one ultras outright. He was pacing me at the very end,

1:05:17.880 --> 1:05:21.800
<v Speaker 3>and I was running so good. By the end, He's like, Cam,

1:05:21.840 --> 1:05:25.280
<v Speaker 3>I don't I can't keep up. I was running six

1:05:25.360 --> 1:05:29.360
<v Speaker 3>something minute miles after two hundred miles after I could

1:05:29.360 --> 1:05:32.720
<v Speaker 3>barely walk at some times during the same race. So

1:05:33.440 --> 1:05:35.280
<v Speaker 3>you just learn what your body can do. But yeah,

1:05:35.320 --> 1:05:37.280
<v Speaker 3>to answer your question, you can start off and like,

1:05:37.840 --> 1:05:39.800
<v Speaker 3>I don't know how this is gonna work out, but

1:05:41.280 --> 1:05:43.200
<v Speaker 3>you're gonna it's gonna be up and down no matter what.

1:05:43.560 --> 1:05:46.720
<v Speaker 3>You might start off great and then feel like, you know,

1:05:46.760 --> 1:05:49.360
<v Speaker 3>after one hundred miles, which is you know, probably gonna

1:05:49.360 --> 1:05:52.960
<v Speaker 3>be twenty four to thirty hours, you might feel like

1:05:53.080 --> 1:05:55.760
<v Speaker 3>I can't take another step, and then you keep going

1:05:55.800 --> 1:05:58.960
<v Speaker 3>and you do. Your body is incredible. People don't realize.

1:05:59.200 --> 1:06:01.920
<v Speaker 1>No, I mean, I mean, I like, I look at

1:06:01.960 --> 1:06:06.720
<v Speaker 1>that stuff and uh, I look at that stuff like

1:06:06.960 --> 1:06:10.800
<v Speaker 1>I can walk good, like good long distances. I look

1:06:10.840 --> 1:06:13.800
<v Speaker 1>at that stuff with running and I just can't because

1:06:13.840 --> 1:06:15.200
<v Speaker 1>even now and then I'll be like I'll run.

1:06:15.040 --> 1:06:17.720
<v Speaker 3>Back to the car and grab the whatever keys.

1:06:18.040 --> 1:06:18.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah you know.

1:06:19.200 --> 1:06:20.840
<v Speaker 3>Then you get where you can see the car and.

1:06:20.760 --> 1:06:21.640
<v Speaker 5>All you're walking.

1:06:23.600 --> 1:06:24.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah you know.

1:06:24.840 --> 1:06:28.360
<v Speaker 5>I mean, it's just like something something in my body is.

1:06:28.360 --> 1:06:32.160
<v Speaker 3>Like, what are we running for? Let's just walk fast? Yeah,

1:06:32.240 --> 1:06:35.640
<v Speaker 3>I mean, you know, I just for me, It's given

1:06:35.680 --> 1:06:38.720
<v Speaker 3>me so much confidence because when I was first hunting

1:06:38.720 --> 1:06:40.240
<v Speaker 3>the Egle capital Ar, and this is kind of where

1:06:40.240 --> 1:06:44.160
<v Speaker 3>I came of age as a mountain hunter. I was

1:06:44.200 --> 1:06:46.360
<v Speaker 3>by myself, so I was scared, you know, I was

1:06:46.560 --> 1:06:49.080
<v Speaker 3>scared back there sometimes and I was like, God, damn,

1:06:49.120 --> 1:06:54.919
<v Speaker 3>this freaking these mountains are kicking my ass just mentally, physically, spiritually.

1:06:55.160 --> 1:06:58.120
<v Speaker 3>It's like I'm thinking about my kids at home, you know,

1:06:58.440 --> 1:07:01.840
<v Speaker 3>little thinking about I should be home. I'm here. It's

1:07:01.920 --> 1:07:04.800
<v Speaker 3>like all these and I just fit. When I got

1:07:04.800 --> 1:07:08.640
<v Speaker 3>mentally stronger, I was like that wilderness was thirty miles

1:07:08.680 --> 1:07:11.080
<v Speaker 3>wide by sixty miles long. It's three hundred and eighty

1:07:11.080 --> 1:07:14.680
<v Speaker 3>seven thousand acres they called the Little Alps. It's very rugged.

1:07:15.000 --> 1:07:16.720
<v Speaker 3>And I was like, I just what can I do

1:07:16.800 --> 1:07:19.280
<v Speaker 3>to get tougher? So I started running and I thought,

1:07:19.480 --> 1:07:21.920
<v Speaker 3>if I could run one hundred miles, finished this one

1:07:21.960 --> 1:07:24.880
<v Speaker 3>hundred mile ultra first one I did was the Big

1:07:24.920 --> 1:07:26.200
<v Speaker 3>Horn one hundred in Wyoming.

1:07:26.480 --> 1:07:27.400
<v Speaker 2>What year was that?

1:07:27.400 --> 1:07:29.720
<v Speaker 3>That was two thousand and nine. If I could run

1:07:29.760 --> 1:07:32.680
<v Speaker 3>one hundred miles, I could get out of the all

1:07:32.680 --> 1:07:35.200
<v Speaker 3>the way through the wilderness in one day. Why would

1:07:35.200 --> 1:07:35.440
<v Speaker 3>I be?

1:07:36.040 --> 1:07:36.160
<v Speaker 2>So?

1:07:36.240 --> 1:07:38.360
<v Speaker 3>That gave me so much confidence I could go back

1:07:38.400 --> 1:07:42.880
<v Speaker 3>there wouldn't think anything about being fearful or I just

1:07:43.040 --> 1:07:46.400
<v Speaker 3>was felt so capable. So then I was like, instead

1:07:46.440 --> 1:07:48.800
<v Speaker 3>of worrying about I got to make it back to camp,

1:07:48.880 --> 1:07:50.560
<v Speaker 3>or or if I have camp on my back, how

1:07:50.600 --> 1:07:52.200
<v Speaker 3>much water do I have? I do have enough food?

1:07:53.040 --> 1:07:55.480
<v Speaker 3>What's this weather doing? You know, there was I didn't

1:07:55.520 --> 1:07:58.280
<v Speaker 3>have a satellite phone or anything like that. But once

1:07:58.320 --> 1:08:00.520
<v Speaker 3>I got that confidence, I didn't worry about that shit.

1:08:00.640 --> 1:08:04.120
<v Speaker 3>All I worried about was I need to kill a bull.

1:08:04.840 --> 1:08:07.360
<v Speaker 3>And when when all you're one hundred percent focus is

1:08:07.400 --> 1:08:10.960
<v Speaker 3>on killing a bull, not everything that can go wrong,

1:08:11.120 --> 1:08:12.720
<v Speaker 3>all these things you can't control.

1:08:12.440 --> 1:08:15.080
<v Speaker 1>Not a yeah, like if I get it now, it's

1:08:15.160 --> 1:08:17.760
<v Speaker 1>gonna be dark, right, you don't and then oh my god,

1:08:17.840 --> 1:08:18.720
<v Speaker 1>I gotta cut it up.

1:08:18.760 --> 1:08:20.599
<v Speaker 3>And then what am I gonna do? It's gonna be warm.

1:08:20.800 --> 1:08:23.519
<v Speaker 3>Maybe I'll there they are tonight, I'll come back in

1:08:23.520 --> 1:08:25.680
<v Speaker 3>the morning. I'll make a plan. I just would go

1:08:25.760 --> 1:08:28.680
<v Speaker 3>one hundred percent focused on killing. Every single time I

1:08:28.720 --> 1:08:30.679
<v Speaker 3>saw something, I didn't care how far it was, I'd

1:08:30.720 --> 1:08:33.000
<v Speaker 3>go and I killed. And it was just like it

1:08:33.080 --> 1:08:36.040
<v Speaker 3>was that confidence, and that then that has carried over

1:08:36.240 --> 1:08:40.519
<v Speaker 3>to everything. Now you know everything, but that ultra had

1:08:40.720 --> 1:08:45.719
<v Speaker 3>that that ultra mindset I think facilitated that growth.

1:08:46.160 --> 1:08:51.240
<v Speaker 5>Did it change how you? Did it change you socially? Uh?

1:08:51.320 --> 1:08:53.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean I pretty much look at everybody and think, yeah,

1:08:53.840 --> 1:08:54.400
<v Speaker 3>you're a pussy.

1:08:54.600 --> 1:08:59.000
<v Speaker 2>He can now it.

1:08:59.200 --> 1:09:02.599
<v Speaker 3>But it does. When you hear people complain about certain things.

1:09:02.680 --> 1:09:05.000
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I think anybody who does you know, fighters

1:09:05.000 --> 1:09:07.679
<v Speaker 3>probably feel like they feel this way. Like my son

1:09:07.720 --> 1:09:10.240
<v Speaker 3>who is a ranger, probably feels this way. You hear

1:09:10.400 --> 1:09:14.920
<v Speaker 3>normal complaints and you're like, it's not really worth complaining about,

1:09:15.560 --> 1:09:17.439
<v Speaker 3>you know what I mean, because it's really not that,

1:09:19.000 --> 1:09:21.720
<v Speaker 3>it's not that bad. So it just gives you perspective

1:09:22.000 --> 1:09:24.479
<v Speaker 3>over what's hard and what's not. Not really judging people,

1:09:24.520 --> 1:09:28.439
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I don't know. Everybody has their own everybody

1:09:28.479 --> 1:09:30.519
<v Speaker 3>has their own threshold. I'm not I don't look down.

1:09:30.600 --> 1:09:33.639
<v Speaker 3>You know, something that's hard for somebody, it's hard for them.

1:09:33.680 --> 1:09:36.679
<v Speaker 3>I can't tell them it's not hard. It's hard for them.

1:09:36.800 --> 1:09:39.960
<v Speaker 1>What do you when you're in one of those megalong races?

1:09:40.520 --> 1:09:40.600
<v Speaker 5>What?

1:09:41.040 --> 1:09:42.720
<v Speaker 3>Uh?

1:09:42.920 --> 1:09:47.080
<v Speaker 1>At what point does it start to feel like it's

1:09:47.240 --> 1:09:48.880
<v Speaker 1>it's one hundred percent metal.

1:09:50.520 --> 1:09:50.680
<v Speaker 2>Um?

1:09:52.600 --> 1:09:54.519
<v Speaker 3>It depends on you know, if you put in the

1:09:54.560 --> 1:09:58.920
<v Speaker 3>mile So the general rule of thumb is the weekly

1:09:59.000 --> 1:10:03.559
<v Speaker 3>mile mileage you get should match your race. So if

1:10:03.560 --> 1:10:06.679
<v Speaker 3>you've been getting in one hundred mile weeks, you should

1:10:06.720 --> 1:10:09.360
<v Speaker 3>be prepared for a hundred mile or this is roughly

1:10:09.640 --> 1:10:12.479
<v Speaker 3>got it. So to get it. To get in one

1:10:12.560 --> 1:10:15.360
<v Speaker 3>hundred mile weeks, you have to that's fourteen miles a day.

1:10:16.360 --> 1:10:18.240
<v Speaker 3>So you run fourteen miles a day, you're getting a

1:10:18.280 --> 1:10:20.400
<v Speaker 3>hundred mile if you can run fourteen miles a day.

1:10:20.840 --> 1:10:23.360
<v Speaker 3>Because most people are you talking a seven day week,

1:10:23.560 --> 1:10:27.600
<v Speaker 3>seven day week, yep, every day. So you have to

1:10:27.600 --> 1:10:30.040
<v Speaker 3>get your body used to those big, back to back

1:10:30.160 --> 1:10:34.719
<v Speaker 3>days because in those long races, you're running for multiple days.

1:10:35.880 --> 1:10:39.760
<v Speaker 3>Most people, if you go run a half marathon, I

1:10:39.760 --> 1:10:43.960
<v Speaker 3>mean you're down for a while. Your body can get

1:10:44.000 --> 1:10:48.439
<v Speaker 3>accustomed to day after day after day, and then like

1:10:48.479 --> 1:10:51.240
<v Speaker 3>there's some you know, so I get one hundred miles

1:10:51.280 --> 1:10:55.200
<v Speaker 3>a week, and then I'll do even bigger weeks like

1:10:55.200 --> 1:10:57.840
<v Speaker 3>I'll try to do I go through stretches where I'll

1:10:57.880 --> 1:11:02.280
<v Speaker 3>do a marathon a day, and that that would be

1:11:03.040 --> 1:11:06.559
<v Speaker 3>you know, two over two hundred miles a week. That's

1:11:06.840 --> 1:11:08.759
<v Speaker 3>to me, I think that's what it takes to prepare

1:11:08.800 --> 1:11:11.800
<v Speaker 3>your body to push like that, because in a race

1:11:11.840 --> 1:11:14.960
<v Speaker 3>where you're not sleeping, you're not recovering. You might feel

1:11:14.960 --> 1:11:18.519
<v Speaker 3>good for thirty miles, which is still a long ass run.

1:11:18.880 --> 1:11:20.599
<v Speaker 3>But at thirty miles and at two hundred and forty

1:11:20.640 --> 1:11:22.960
<v Speaker 3>mile race, you have two hundred and ten miles left?

1:11:23.560 --> 1:11:26.200
<v Speaker 3>What are you going? So you're feeling like shit for

1:11:26.360 --> 1:11:29.920
<v Speaker 3>most of the race. You can't train And as soon

1:11:29.920 --> 1:11:33.400
<v Speaker 3>as you start feeling like shit, stop because that's where

1:11:33.439 --> 1:11:35.360
<v Speaker 3>most of the race is taking place. So it's just

1:11:35.400 --> 1:11:37.800
<v Speaker 3>a matter of building your body up to be able

1:11:37.960 --> 1:11:42.840
<v Speaker 3>to endure that that I mean, just what you're asking

1:11:42.880 --> 1:11:44.840
<v Speaker 3>of it. It's at the end.

1:11:44.920 --> 1:11:46.519
<v Speaker 5>Are you towards the end?

1:11:46.560 --> 1:11:47.519
<v Speaker 3>Are you still doing that?

1:11:47.720 --> 1:11:47.880
<v Speaker 5>Oh?

1:11:48.040 --> 1:11:50.000
<v Speaker 1>You need salt, you need water, you need calories. You're

1:11:50.000 --> 1:11:52.960
<v Speaker 1>at a point where you just you're just gonna finish

1:11:52.960 --> 1:11:56.000
<v Speaker 1>it and not think. Can't you still got to be

1:11:56.000 --> 1:11:57.720
<v Speaker 1>like can't you still like flying? You can still gotta

1:11:57.720 --> 1:12:00.200
<v Speaker 1>be like flying a helicopter, paying attention to everything.

1:12:00.240 --> 1:12:06.040
<v Speaker 3>The whole time. Once you stop thinking about food or calories,

1:12:06.200 --> 1:12:09.720
<v Speaker 3>hydration and salt, you're pretty much done. Okay, it has

1:12:09.920 --> 1:12:13.080
<v Speaker 3>you can never Sometimes you get into groove and you

1:12:13.160 --> 1:12:16.439
<v Speaker 3>don't take in that stuff every hour you pay for it.

1:12:16.600 --> 1:12:17.080
<v Speaker 2>Got it.

1:12:17.200 --> 1:12:19.479
<v Speaker 3>You have to keep those those three things up.

1:12:19.680 --> 1:12:23.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, on a different subject, you did.

1:12:23.960 --> 1:12:26.880
<v Speaker 5>They were mentioned to me that, you know, you like.

1:12:29.479 --> 1:12:33.439
<v Speaker 1>Still hunting and then moving into like stocks, right, and

1:12:33.439 --> 1:12:35.160
<v Speaker 1>you're talking about hunting with a friend of yours who's

1:12:35.200 --> 1:12:37.880
<v Speaker 1>a good caller. And when your friend says, well, let's

1:12:37.880 --> 1:12:41.280
<v Speaker 1>try to call that bowl, you'll think yourself, let's try to,

1:12:41.800 --> 1:12:43.599
<v Speaker 1>won't we to sneak down there and try to get it?

1:12:43.720 --> 1:12:44.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

1:12:44.240 --> 1:12:46.040
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, talk about that a little bit.

1:12:46.960 --> 1:12:47.080
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

1:12:47.320 --> 1:12:49.880
<v Speaker 3>I think it's just used to I always used to

1:12:50.160 --> 1:12:53.559
<v Speaker 3>growing up on public land in that wilderness, and everywhere

1:12:53.560 --> 1:12:56.800
<v Speaker 3>I hunted, even before the wilderness, it was like twenty

1:12:56.880 --> 1:12:59.719
<v Speaker 3>minutes from Eugenie or Springfield is where I would elk hunt.

1:13:00.160 --> 1:13:03.760
<v Speaker 3>Very accessible, there's big bulls there. There'd be articles on

1:13:03.800 --> 1:13:07.320
<v Speaker 3>the paper. We lived on that road, so opening day

1:13:07.360 --> 1:13:09.479
<v Speaker 3>of deer season there'd be three hundred trucks going by.

1:13:10.000 --> 1:13:13.559
<v Speaker 3>So you get used to hunting amongst other people. When

1:13:13.600 --> 1:13:16.160
<v Speaker 3>you're elk hunting amongst other people, you don't call because

1:13:16.200 --> 1:13:18.320
<v Speaker 3>those bulls have been called so many times. So I

1:13:18.439 --> 1:13:23.639
<v Speaker 3>grew up never calling because you blew on. I mean,

1:13:23.680 --> 1:13:26.080
<v Speaker 3>even if you were good. Those bulls are probably not

1:13:26.120 --> 1:13:29.600
<v Speaker 3>going to react. So I was just so used to

1:13:29.640 --> 1:13:32.760
<v Speaker 3>and I gained a lot of confidence and I can

1:13:32.880 --> 1:13:35.439
<v Speaker 3>just because to me, getting down on an elk is

1:13:35.479 --> 1:13:38.720
<v Speaker 3>way easier than stocking a big meal deer meal. Deer

1:13:38.800 --> 1:13:41.880
<v Speaker 3>are so much harder to stock, just how they they're

1:13:42.080 --> 1:13:45.839
<v Speaker 3>more aware how they bed because the bow hunter generally

1:13:45.840 --> 1:13:47.519
<v Speaker 3>were way for them to bed, and then you plan

1:13:47.640 --> 1:13:50.360
<v Speaker 3>your stock, you get the wind right, very difficult, and

1:13:50.479 --> 1:13:53.800
<v Speaker 3>elk they're so noisy, they're so big, they're more of

1:13:53.840 --> 1:13:57.880
<v Speaker 3>a dominant figure on the landscape, so they're not quite

1:13:57.960 --> 1:14:00.360
<v Speaker 3>as skittish as I don't think it's as you're like

1:14:00.400 --> 1:14:03.800
<v Speaker 3>a white tail. Just to me, I had a lot

1:14:03.800 --> 1:14:08.439
<v Speaker 3>of success and just got really good at stalking, and

1:14:08.479 --> 1:14:14.240
<v Speaker 3>so I've never had to I hardly ever call. I've

1:14:14.320 --> 1:14:17.439
<v Speaker 3>killed a lot of bowls and probably ninety percent of

1:14:17.479 --> 1:14:19.400
<v Speaker 3>them were spawn stock.

1:14:19.760 --> 1:14:21.639
<v Speaker 1>When they're better, or you're doing them on their feeding

1:14:21.720 --> 1:14:23.240
<v Speaker 1>or whatever anything.

1:14:22.920 --> 1:14:26.639
<v Speaker 3>You can anytime, yeah, just whatever they're doing. Uh Yeah,

1:14:26.680 --> 1:14:28.920
<v Speaker 3>So it's just you know how hunting is is, you're

1:14:28.960 --> 1:14:32.479
<v Speaker 3>just reading body language, You're reading body language terrain. You

1:14:32.520 --> 1:14:34.640
<v Speaker 3>know that pig today you can eat pigs are you know,

1:14:34.720 --> 1:14:36.840
<v Speaker 3>they're not very aware, especially now that I think they're

1:14:36.840 --> 1:14:39.479
<v Speaker 3>so focused on feeding because it's been so dry. But

1:14:39.880 --> 1:14:43.439
<v Speaker 3>you just you watch the animals. You see what you

1:14:43.479 --> 1:14:45.800
<v Speaker 3>can get away with. You stay in the shadows, You

1:14:45.920 --> 1:14:49.639
<v Speaker 3>use whatever cover is available. You go very slow. You're

1:14:49.680 --> 1:14:52.760
<v Speaker 3>not your arms aren't out kind of in line, your

1:14:52.840 --> 1:14:56.040
<v Speaker 3>your legs aren't taking big steps, and that profile is

1:14:56.040 --> 1:14:59.920
<v Speaker 3>barely moving if you're going right to them, and you

1:15:00.160 --> 1:15:02.720
<v Speaker 3>just all that ways in and then you get into

1:15:02.720 --> 1:15:05.080
<v Speaker 3>bow range. You wait for the right position and then

1:15:05.080 --> 1:15:06.840
<v Speaker 3>you kill them. And that's just what I do on

1:15:06.880 --> 1:15:11.599
<v Speaker 3>on everything, and elk are very susceptible to stalking.

1:15:11.680 --> 1:15:15.160
<v Speaker 1>I think, what what's your attitude or not your attitude,

1:15:15.200 --> 1:15:17.439
<v Speaker 1>what's your approach when you're when you're in a big

1:15:17.479 --> 1:15:21.919
<v Speaker 1>old like grab ass party with a couple of bulls

1:15:21.960 --> 1:15:26.360
<v Speaker 1>and ten cows and everybody's running, you know, moving around,

1:15:26.520 --> 1:15:27.520
<v Speaker 1>tons of eyeballs.

1:15:27.600 --> 1:15:29.280
<v Speaker 3>Do you just sit it out to wait or you

1:15:29.280 --> 1:15:29.840
<v Speaker 3>get in there and.

1:15:29.760 --> 1:15:30.280
<v Speaker 2>Mix it up?

1:15:31.120 --> 1:15:34.040
<v Speaker 3>No, I mean it depends if the if the bull,

1:15:34.400 --> 1:15:36.640
<v Speaker 3>if there's a dominant bull there, like usually I'm just

1:15:36.680 --> 1:15:40.599
<v Speaker 3>gonna kill the biggest, oldest bull, so I'll get in

1:15:41.080 --> 1:15:45.400
<v Speaker 3>And I mean I'm thinking, like a good example was

1:15:45.800 --> 1:15:46.519
<v Speaker 3>two years ago.

1:15:47.400 --> 1:15:47.840
<v Speaker 2>I was.

1:15:50.320 --> 1:15:53.559
<v Speaker 3>I had somebody could have called for me. This bull.

1:15:53.720 --> 1:15:55.800
<v Speaker 3>I could hear it was up on this bench, so

1:15:57.040 --> 1:15:59.040
<v Speaker 3>calling it's not going to come off the bench he

1:15:59.240 --> 1:16:01.160
<v Speaker 3>I could. I knew he had his herd up there.

1:16:01.439 --> 1:16:03.960
<v Speaker 3>He's not coming off a bench to come to a call, right,

1:16:04.080 --> 1:16:06.920
<v Speaker 3>he had elevation. They're always going to want to keep

1:16:06.960 --> 1:16:09.080
<v Speaker 3>that elevation. So I'm like, he's not going to come

1:16:09.080 --> 1:16:11.400
<v Speaker 3>to the call. I need to get back up on

1:16:11.400 --> 1:16:13.960
<v Speaker 3>that bench. So I got up on the bench and

1:16:14.000 --> 1:16:17.120
<v Speaker 3>it was really thick up there, and he came around.

1:16:17.240 --> 1:16:19.639
<v Speaker 3>He was going like working the bench and then going

1:16:19.840 --> 1:16:22.480
<v Speaker 3>on the edge of the bench down towards the drainage.

1:16:22.840 --> 1:16:25.200
<v Speaker 3>He would call there because they want to announce that

1:16:25.240 --> 1:16:28.040
<v Speaker 3>they're badasses and they want everybody to know, so he

1:16:28.080 --> 1:16:30.320
<v Speaker 3>would go to that edge of it. I was on

1:16:30.360 --> 1:16:33.360
<v Speaker 3>the hillside edge where I came up, and I saw

1:16:33.439 --> 1:16:36.080
<v Speaker 3>him come up and he raked this tree about I

1:16:36.080 --> 1:16:38.200
<v Speaker 3>don't know, thirty five yards away but facing me, and

1:16:38.240 --> 1:16:40.200
<v Speaker 3>I didn't have a shot. And then he left and

1:16:40.200 --> 1:16:42.880
<v Speaker 3>then he went back down to the edge of the

1:16:42.880 --> 1:16:45.840
<v Speaker 3>bench over the drainage called and then he started to

1:16:45.880 --> 1:16:49.559
<v Speaker 3>come back around in amongst or during this time, there's

1:16:49.560 --> 1:16:51.479
<v Speaker 3>a couple of cows and they're feeding, and they would

1:16:51.560 --> 1:16:53.840
<v Speaker 3>get there and there cows were like twenty yards. So

1:16:53.880 --> 1:16:57.519
<v Speaker 3>in that case, I'm just saying, he's coming back. I

1:16:57.600 --> 1:16:59.920
<v Speaker 3>know what he's doing. I just got to hope this

1:17:00.120 --> 1:17:02.120
<v Speaker 3>wind holes wind was coming up at this time is

1:17:02.200 --> 1:17:05.400
<v Speaker 3>mid morning, and I got to hope that this win holds.

1:17:05.439 --> 1:17:07.559
<v Speaker 3>I'm just gonna stay here, And so I stayed there

1:17:08.200 --> 1:17:12.599
<v Speaker 3>Brandona Shock he was there filming me, and uh, I

1:17:12.680 --> 1:17:15.320
<v Speaker 3>just stayed for probably I don't know, it was probably

1:17:15.360 --> 1:17:19.080
<v Speaker 3>twenty five or thirty minutes. And eventually those cows fed

1:17:19.160 --> 1:17:21.920
<v Speaker 3>up to about ten yards, and so I just knew

1:17:21.960 --> 1:17:25.680
<v Speaker 3>that if this hole held, I was gonna, you know,

1:17:25.760 --> 1:17:27.840
<v Speaker 3>wait him out. He would come up. And he came

1:17:27.920 --> 1:17:31.360
<v Speaker 3>up to about twenty one yards, and I slipped an

1:17:31.400 --> 1:17:34.639
<v Speaker 3>arrow through the brush and killed him. So it's, uh,

1:17:34.800 --> 1:17:37.439
<v Speaker 3>it just depends. That was just a situation where I

1:17:37.520 --> 1:17:39.720
<v Speaker 3>was just weighing out what I thought was going on,

1:17:40.600 --> 1:17:43.200
<v Speaker 3>what were the best odds for me to get that

1:17:43.280 --> 1:17:46.720
<v Speaker 3>bowl killed, And then that's how it happened. You know,

1:17:46.760 --> 1:17:50.040
<v Speaker 3>if there's satellite bowls around, it's he's going to run

1:17:50.120 --> 1:17:52.519
<v Speaker 3>him off. I mean, he's gonna run, he's gonna come.

1:17:52.600 --> 1:17:54.320
<v Speaker 3>He's not gonna let a satellite bowl get close to

1:17:54.320 --> 1:17:57.160
<v Speaker 3>his cows without him coming in and let him know

1:17:57.240 --> 1:18:00.559
<v Speaker 3>who runs the show. So it's just but as you know,

1:18:00.600 --> 1:18:02.439
<v Speaker 3>as well as I do, and most of your listeners,

1:18:02.680 --> 1:18:07.000
<v Speaker 3>you're just every situation is unique. Oh no, and I

1:18:07.760 --> 1:18:10.800
<v Speaker 3>you know, I kind of laugh sometimes when people, you know,

1:18:10.840 --> 1:18:13.719
<v Speaker 3>they act like they got this species or this animal

1:18:13.760 --> 1:18:18.960
<v Speaker 3>figured out. It's like, every single time is different. There's tendencies,

1:18:19.680 --> 1:18:23.160
<v Speaker 3>but you don't have it figured out. You you you've

1:18:23.960 --> 1:18:28.559
<v Speaker 3>developed and noticed habits. But every situation because of that,

1:18:28.800 --> 1:18:30.479
<v Speaker 3>if that bench wasn't there would have been something else.

1:18:30.520 --> 1:18:33.040
<v Speaker 3>It would have been something else going. Or if that

1:18:33.400 --> 1:18:35.360
<v Speaker 3>or if I was above him instead of below him,

1:18:35.680 --> 1:18:37.280
<v Speaker 3>maybe he would have come up that bench to me.

1:18:37.479 --> 1:18:41.080
<v Speaker 3>But it's like, I mean, it's it's a chess game

1:18:41.160 --> 1:18:43.840
<v Speaker 3>every single time. I just love that part of it,

1:18:43.880 --> 1:18:46.400
<v Speaker 3>and I've I don't have it figured out, but I

1:18:46.479 --> 1:18:50.000
<v Speaker 3>have figured out good decisions to make to put the

1:18:50.040 --> 1:18:50.880
<v Speaker 3>odds in my favor.

1:18:50.960 --> 1:18:53.439
<v Speaker 1>Well, that's that's part of what I think figuring out

1:18:53.680 --> 1:19:00.479
<v Speaker 1>is is if you've exposed yourself to enough situations you

1:19:00.520 --> 1:19:04.080
<v Speaker 1>start to put together a kind of probability calculator.

1:19:05.280 --> 1:19:06.559
<v Speaker 5>It's it's like.

1:19:06.560 --> 1:19:09.799
<v Speaker 3>Your crystal ball. I'm big on numbers. Oh I'm always

1:19:09.920 --> 1:19:15.280
<v Speaker 3>running numbers, and I'm always like, it's it's probably. I

1:19:15.320 --> 1:19:19.040
<v Speaker 3>was a purchasing purchasing agent for twenty years at the

1:19:19.080 --> 1:19:21.719
<v Speaker 3>local utility back home, and I would look at everything

1:19:21.800 --> 1:19:24.080
<v Speaker 3>like a calculation. So it was just odds and its

1:19:24.160 --> 1:19:26.519
<v Speaker 3>numbers and just running and I just so I'm always

1:19:26.560 --> 1:19:30.160
<v Speaker 3>looking at how much time I've been in this area,

1:19:30.240 --> 1:19:32.640
<v Speaker 3>what the wind's gonna do with this, you know, just

1:19:32.720 --> 1:19:36.200
<v Speaker 3>like just running in my head. Like but yeah, it's

1:19:36.240 --> 1:19:38.439
<v Speaker 3>just probability, I think, is kind of what you're saying.

1:19:38.680 --> 1:19:42.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, just getting in saying you're not you're not able

1:19:42.840 --> 1:19:44.720
<v Speaker 1>to you know, you're not going well that one time

1:19:44.760 --> 1:19:47.439
<v Speaker 1>this happened, another time that happened, an our time happened.

1:19:47.479 --> 1:19:52.040
<v Speaker 3>It's just I have a feeling, yeah, based on experience.

1:19:52.200 --> 1:19:55.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I have a feeling that that thing, that thing's

1:19:55.960 --> 1:19:58.920
<v Speaker 1>gonna come back up here again. Yeah, you know, and

1:19:58.920 --> 1:20:01.120
<v Speaker 1>then they all run down the hill and you're.

1:20:01.040 --> 1:20:05.280
<v Speaker 7>Like, I guess I was wrong at that time.

1:20:05.320 --> 1:20:07.680
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it's not like it's you know, it's not

1:20:07.720 --> 1:20:10.320
<v Speaker 3>like it's a slam dunk. But anytime, you know, people

1:20:10.800 --> 1:20:12.840
<v Speaker 3>I do. I do a lot of elk hunting, so

1:20:12.880 --> 1:20:15.439
<v Speaker 3>I get some balls on the ground. People say it's

1:20:15.479 --> 1:20:18.519
<v Speaker 3>too much this or this or that, but but the

1:20:18.600 --> 1:20:23.760
<v Speaker 3>point the point is, it's like, uh, oh man, Now

1:20:23.760 --> 1:20:26.400
<v Speaker 3>I don't even know what point was. I'm sorry, Uh

1:20:27.080 --> 1:20:27.559
<v Speaker 3>what what?

1:20:27.560 --> 1:20:27.760
<v Speaker 5>What?

1:20:27.760 --> 1:20:28.519
<v Speaker 3>What do you just say?

1:20:29.000 --> 1:20:31.400
<v Speaker 1>I said, well, you you think I was saying I

1:20:31.439 --> 1:20:34.360
<v Speaker 1>was joking that you were convinced or thinking it's gonna

1:20:34.400 --> 1:20:35.200
<v Speaker 1>come back this way.

1:20:35.479 --> 1:20:37.000
<v Speaker 5>But I said, then they all run down the hill.

1:20:37.160 --> 1:20:40.040
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, Actually, now I don't evenmember what it's gonna say.

1:20:40.040 --> 1:20:40.720
<v Speaker 3>So sorry about that.

1:20:40.720 --> 1:20:41.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

1:20:41.560 --> 1:20:42.360
<v Speaker 3>It's good dark out.

1:20:44.000 --> 1:20:47.479
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, sorry about the cameras, it's just running out of light.

1:20:47.560 --> 1:20:50.240
<v Speaker 3>No doing audio only.

1:20:51.479 --> 1:20:55.120
<v Speaker 5>We're just gonna have to like cut halfway and just one.

1:20:54.960 --> 1:20:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Problem we haven't thought of with our studio needs.

1:20:56.840 --> 1:20:58.599
<v Speaker 5>We need to be full moon only.

1:21:00.040 --> 1:21:02.680
<v Speaker 3>And only remember the bounce, the bounce bounce off that

1:21:02.720 --> 1:21:05.920
<v Speaker 3>moon whatever it is. Yeah, yeah, but no, it's a

1:21:06.640 --> 1:21:08.880
<v Speaker 3>oh no, that's what I was gonna say. Yeah, people

1:21:08.960 --> 1:21:12.400
<v Speaker 3>make it seem like, uh, you know, I don't want

1:21:12.400 --> 1:21:15.400
<v Speaker 3>to say people have it figured out, and I don't,

1:21:15.600 --> 1:21:17.679
<v Speaker 3>so I'll never say I have it figured out every time.

1:21:17.880 --> 1:21:22.479
<v Speaker 3>But it's not like it's impossible. I mean, how many

1:21:22.520 --> 1:21:23.920
<v Speaker 3>guys kill bulls every year?

1:21:24.120 --> 1:21:24.479
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

1:21:24.520 --> 1:21:24.960
<v Speaker 3>A lot.

1:21:25.240 --> 1:21:26.720
<v Speaker 1>Were at the end the other day when it gets

1:21:26.720 --> 1:21:30.080
<v Speaker 1>to be September and you see like the picture everybody's

1:21:30.080 --> 1:21:31.519
<v Speaker 1>sending you and you're seeing you're like.

1:21:32.000 --> 1:21:35.120
<v Speaker 3>How was everybody? Yeah getting the ball?

1:21:35.479 --> 1:21:37.280
<v Speaker 5>Yeah? Well so I got to go look at people

1:21:37.360 --> 1:21:38.479
<v Speaker 5>right around me, go did you get a bull?

1:21:38.600 --> 1:21:38.680
<v Speaker 2>No?

1:21:38.800 --> 1:21:43.559
<v Speaker 3>Okay, good, someone somebody did, somebody didn't. I mean, it's

1:21:43.640 --> 1:21:46.120
<v Speaker 3>challenging and it's hard. It's ten percent success. I get

1:21:46.160 --> 1:21:50.599
<v Speaker 3>all that, but it's not like it's impossible. So if

1:21:50.680 --> 1:21:53.040
<v Speaker 3>ten percent of guys, some of them are prepared, some

1:21:53.080 --> 1:21:55.840
<v Speaker 3>of them are prepared. But if if you can go

1:21:55.960 --> 1:21:59.120
<v Speaker 3>out and you get lucky and kill, imagine what you

1:21:59.120 --> 1:22:01.800
<v Speaker 3>can do if you focus your whole life on it. Sure,

1:22:01.880 --> 1:22:03.519
<v Speaker 3>you know what I mean. It's not it's not like

1:22:03.560 --> 1:22:05.720
<v Speaker 3>we're saying, oh, you're gonna try to do this, saying

1:22:05.800 --> 1:22:09.639
<v Speaker 3>no man has ever done Okay, it's gonna be tough.

1:22:09.880 --> 1:22:13.559
<v Speaker 3>We're doing something guys do every year. So if if

1:22:13.600 --> 1:22:16.160
<v Speaker 3>another man can do it, I know I can do it.

1:22:16.960 --> 1:22:20.000
<v Speaker 3>So it's just good making good decisions, put yourself in

1:22:20.400 --> 1:22:24.639
<v Speaker 3>position for success, and you know, basing all this experience

1:22:24.680 --> 1:22:28.280
<v Speaker 3>you have, it can happen. It can happen often. So

1:22:28.880 --> 1:22:29.559
<v Speaker 3>that's how it looks.

1:22:29.640 --> 1:22:32.120
<v Speaker 1>That used to be the only pep talk I knew

1:22:33.040 --> 1:22:39.320
<v Speaker 1>was it only takes one. And then there's like another

1:22:39.360 --> 1:22:44.479
<v Speaker 1>pep talk of reminding myself how fast things can turn

1:22:44.520 --> 1:22:47.800
<v Speaker 1>around yep. And then the other pep talk is the

1:22:47.840 --> 1:22:49.800
<v Speaker 1>old like, uh, well we're not gonna kill him in

1:22:49.800 --> 1:22:54.200
<v Speaker 1>the truck. Yeah, that's you know, but you're all very

1:22:54.240 --> 1:22:55.760
<v Speaker 1>pragmatic pep talks.

1:22:56.080 --> 1:22:56.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1:22:56.800 --> 1:22:59.200
<v Speaker 3>Roy used to say that all the time to my

1:22:59.240 --> 1:23:01.479
<v Speaker 3>buddy Roy we started bow hunting, as we mentioned, but

1:23:02.560 --> 1:23:04.320
<v Speaker 3>sometimes he would say, I don't know what to do,

1:23:04.840 --> 1:23:07.040
<v Speaker 3>but I'm just going to be out there. You know,

1:23:07.360 --> 1:23:09.240
<v Speaker 3>all you can all you can control is where you're at.

1:23:09.320 --> 1:23:12.400
<v Speaker 3>If you're out there, who knows what's going to happen.

1:23:12.479 --> 1:23:14.640
<v Speaker 3>There always a chance, and so yeah, he would just

1:23:14.880 --> 1:23:18.360
<v Speaker 3>wouldn't know what to do. You know, everybody likes to

1:23:18.360 --> 1:23:22.080
<v Speaker 3>think they have it exactly figured out. Any hunter knows

1:23:22.080 --> 1:23:23.960
<v Speaker 3>you don't always have it figured out. And you feel

1:23:24.000 --> 1:23:27.920
<v Speaker 3>like I feel there's been hunts where I'm like, I

1:23:27.920 --> 1:23:30.440
<v Speaker 3>don't know how I've ever killed anything. It feels impossible.

1:23:30.880 --> 1:23:33.640
<v Speaker 3>But when you're out there, yeah, it can turn on

1:23:33.680 --> 1:23:37.759
<v Speaker 3>a dime. Yeah, So it's a I think hunting teaches

1:23:38.280 --> 1:23:46.160
<v Speaker 3>that optimism, that optimism optimistic mindset almost better than anything,

1:23:46.840 --> 1:23:49.479
<v Speaker 3>because you have to believe. If you don't believe, you're

1:23:49.479 --> 1:23:51.880
<v Speaker 3>at home, you're at home, you're talking on social media

1:23:51.880 --> 1:23:55.560
<v Speaker 3>talking shit about guys who killed Yeah. So if you're optimistic,

1:23:55.920 --> 1:23:57.639
<v Speaker 3>you're not worried about any of that. You're out there

1:23:57.720 --> 1:23:59.439
<v Speaker 3>and it's like, I'm going to make something happen.

1:24:00.080 --> 1:24:02.800
<v Speaker 1>Maybe I should combine those pep talk and it would

1:24:02.800 --> 1:24:06.559
<v Speaker 1>be it only takes one. It happens so fast you

1:24:06.560 --> 1:24:11.360
<v Speaker 1>can't get them in the truck. Yeah, it happened so

1:24:11.479 --> 1:24:15.040
<v Speaker 1>fast it can happen. Yeah, it turn on a dime.

1:24:15.120 --> 1:24:16.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, I mean just like all of a sudden,

1:24:16.760 --> 1:24:18.559
<v Speaker 1>there it is, you know, Yeah, how many times you

1:24:18.560 --> 1:24:21.840
<v Speaker 1>have that feeling I've had, I've been You're.

1:24:21.720 --> 1:24:24.400
<v Speaker 3>Like, oh my god, I can't believe it. Well, we

1:24:24.600 --> 1:24:30.439
<v Speaker 3>never I've more often had the feeling of please, please,

1:24:30.479 --> 1:24:34.720
<v Speaker 3>could I just have a break please? I mean, I

1:24:33.400 --> 1:24:38.439
<v Speaker 3>deserve I deserve this I've worked so hard, Please can

1:24:38.520 --> 1:24:40.720
<v Speaker 3>I have a break. That's what I've I'm used to that.

1:24:40.800 --> 1:24:42.559
<v Speaker 7>I feel like that happens a lot of time, turkey

1:24:42.640 --> 1:24:45.479
<v Speaker 7>hunting in the spring time, Like walking around not hearing

1:24:45.479 --> 1:24:48.400
<v Speaker 7>a single gobble the whole morning, and then like you're

1:24:48.439 --> 1:24:50.920
<v Speaker 7>walking back to the truck and one gobbles back where

1:24:50.920 --> 1:24:53.040
<v Speaker 7>you just came from me. You're like, well, better go

1:24:53.240 --> 1:24:53.720
<v Speaker 7>chase him.

1:24:53.840 --> 1:24:55.320
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, go ahead.

1:24:55.640 --> 1:24:58.960
<v Speaker 2>The one hunt that we do that every time, I'm like,

1:24:59.040 --> 1:25:01.840
<v Speaker 2>I just cannot picture this is happening that.

1:25:04.040 --> 1:25:07.799
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I can't picture. I uh, just just to close.

1:25:09.520 --> 1:25:11.280
<v Speaker 1>It's a few years ago, me and Yan he went

1:25:11.320 --> 1:25:16.320
<v Speaker 1>to Missouri for the turkey opener and it was the coldest, snowiest,

1:25:16.479 --> 1:25:22.240
<v Speaker 1>windiest morning and it was like so winter time. I mean,

1:25:22.240 --> 1:25:24.559
<v Speaker 1>you couldn't find it. There wasn't no bud on a tree.

1:25:25.520 --> 1:25:27.479
<v Speaker 1>And we went out and split up. I went off

1:25:27.520 --> 1:25:29.639
<v Speaker 1>one direction, Yeah, he went off in our direction. This

1:25:29.640 --> 1:25:35.160
<v Speaker 1>this big chunkle of uh. I can't remember who administered it.

1:25:35.160 --> 1:25:35.400
<v Speaker 5>It was.

1:25:35.479 --> 1:25:37.639
<v Speaker 1>It was public land. It was like National forest land.

1:25:37.680 --> 1:25:40.759
<v Speaker 1>It was some other kind of public land like county

1:25:40.800 --> 1:25:45.160
<v Speaker 1>land or something. Either way, I'm out there and I've

1:25:45.360 --> 1:25:47.960
<v Speaker 1>and I talked myself into that you just can't hunt

1:25:48.840 --> 1:25:49.760
<v Speaker 1>in these conditions.

1:25:50.880 --> 1:25:51.639
<v Speaker 5>Sounds brutal.

1:25:51.960 --> 1:25:57.000
<v Speaker 1>Well over on the next over, on the next hillside,

1:25:57.200 --> 1:26:00.920
<v Speaker 1>all sudden, son of a bit.

1:26:01.040 --> 1:26:06.680
<v Speaker 5>No, not a shotgun show. Okay, I was gonna say.

1:26:05.920 --> 1:26:12.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm over here saying everything like that would it's two windy,

1:26:12.640 --> 1:26:16.880
<v Speaker 1>snowy spring and over on the next bridge, unbeknownst to me,

1:26:16.960 --> 1:26:22.080
<v Speaker 1>Yanni's working a hot gobbler and kills it, and I'm like, dude,

1:26:23.120 --> 1:26:27.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, like the mindset man, you know, yeah, you're

1:26:27.720 --> 1:26:30.240
<v Speaker 1>determining that. It's like we might as well go home.

1:26:30.520 --> 1:26:32.840
<v Speaker 1>And then he's working a hot gobbler around the next bridge,

1:26:32.880 --> 1:26:35.680
<v Speaker 1>and talk about like the two different guys with the different.

1:26:35.320 --> 1:26:39.240
<v Speaker 3>Attitudes that that reminds me. I read I read this

1:26:39.320 --> 1:26:41.840
<v Speaker 3>old story just on the podcast the other day, a

1:26:41.840 --> 1:26:46.200
<v Speaker 3>solo podcast. I like, I like hearkening back on uh

1:26:46.600 --> 1:26:49.720
<v Speaker 3>just good reading or good writers, or old books like

1:26:49.840 --> 1:26:52.640
<v Speaker 3>Life of Full Drop, Chuck Adams, just old stuff that

1:26:53.080 --> 1:26:54.800
<v Speaker 3>you know, people don't talk about these days. So I

1:26:54.840 --> 1:26:58.479
<v Speaker 3>read this old article. Roy and Dwight shoe or honeying

1:26:58.520 --> 1:27:01.960
<v Speaker 3>on Kodiak and they got stuck there for twenty three days.

1:27:01.960 --> 1:27:04.360
<v Speaker 3>They're supposed to be there, I think twelve. But the

1:27:04.360 --> 1:27:07.799
<v Speaker 3>weather had the river froze and a plane is supposed

1:27:07.840 --> 1:27:10.800
<v Speaker 3>to where we hunt on Kodiak. Plane drops us off

1:27:10.840 --> 1:27:14.439
<v Speaker 3>on this river. They land on floats, but it froze,

1:27:14.439 --> 1:27:19.200
<v Speaker 3>so they were stuck. But anyway, this nasty weather came in,

1:27:19.479 --> 1:27:22.640
<v Speaker 3>and Roy always felt like he was going to be

1:27:22.680 --> 1:27:25.439
<v Speaker 3>able to it didn't matter, It did not matter what

1:27:25.560 --> 1:27:29.719
<v Speaker 3>the situation was. So Dwight said he was dry. Dwight

1:27:29.720 --> 1:27:31.920
<v Speaker 3>Sheche wrote this article. He was trying to keep up

1:27:31.920 --> 1:27:34.479
<v Speaker 3>with Roy. Roy's going up the hill. And Roy's a

1:27:34.479 --> 1:27:35.800
<v Speaker 3>big guy. I mean, you would look at him and

1:27:35.840 --> 1:27:38.439
<v Speaker 3>you would think that this guy supposed to be a stud,

1:27:38.680 --> 1:27:41.719
<v Speaker 3>biggest stud you've ever seen, or not ever seen, because

1:27:41.720 --> 1:27:44.400
<v Speaker 3>you wouldn't think that biggest study I've ever hunted with.

1:27:44.520 --> 1:27:49.480
<v Speaker 3>But anyway, Roy's going up the hill. Dwight, who's very capable,

1:27:49.880 --> 1:27:52.719
<v Speaker 3>could barely keep up with him. And he said, while

1:27:52.800 --> 1:27:55.759
<v Speaker 3>Roy was going up the trail and Dwight was struggling

1:27:55.760 --> 1:27:58.040
<v Speaker 3>to keep up, Roy killed a buck in a red fox.

1:28:01.520 --> 1:28:04.200
<v Speaker 3>So and so then that sets the stage for this

1:28:04.240 --> 1:28:07.760
<v Speaker 3>other one. The wind was howling so bad that they

1:28:07.800 --> 1:28:10.640
<v Speaker 3>could barely see. Roy said, I'm i still got a

1:28:10.640 --> 1:28:13.160
<v Speaker 3>buck tag. I'm going to go out. So they find

1:28:13.200 --> 1:28:16.120
<v Speaker 3>this buck on this hillside just cover. The buck was

1:28:16.160 --> 1:28:18.920
<v Speaker 3>getting covered with snow, but it was blowing off enough,

1:28:19.040 --> 1:28:20.760
<v Speaker 3>or it was bedded down there. You know, these bucks

1:28:20.800 --> 1:28:24.680
<v Speaker 3>on Kodiak are tough. Roy gets forty yards away and

1:28:24.760 --> 1:28:27.479
<v Speaker 3>Dwight said he couldn't even watch Roy. He's supposed to

1:28:27.479 --> 1:28:29.280
<v Speaker 3>be filming him, but he had to look away because

1:28:29.640 --> 1:28:32.559
<v Speaker 3>the snow was coming in, stinging his face so bad

1:28:33.200 --> 1:28:35.400
<v Speaker 3>he could not and he couldn't show his hands, so

1:28:35.439 --> 1:28:37.799
<v Speaker 3>he's turn and he said. Roy was sitting there bare

1:28:37.800 --> 1:28:39.920
<v Speaker 3>hands because it's hard to shoot with gloves on if

1:28:39.920 --> 1:28:43.840
<v Speaker 3>you're not used to it, and bear face and sitting

1:28:43.880 --> 1:28:47.040
<v Speaker 3>there forty yards and I think for two hours. Finally

1:28:47.080 --> 1:28:49.960
<v Speaker 3>that buck stood up and Dwight couldn't even face. He

1:28:50.000 --> 1:28:53.120
<v Speaker 3>had to have his back to Roy. But buck stood up.

1:28:53.240 --> 1:28:57.040
<v Speaker 3>Roy killed it. Who the hell else would be out?

1:28:57.160 --> 1:29:01.679
<v Speaker 3>You couldn't see anywhere snow it being you've been stuck

1:29:01.720 --> 1:29:05.040
<v Speaker 3>there for three weeks. Basically, Roy still had that tag

1:29:05.120 --> 1:29:09.800
<v Speaker 3>and went filled it in. So that's I mean, that's

1:29:09.800 --> 1:29:12.360
<v Speaker 3>the kind of attitude it takes sometimes, Yeah, And that's

1:29:12.360 --> 1:29:14.280
<v Speaker 3>what a lot of people don't have.

1:29:15.640 --> 1:29:16.320
<v Speaker 1>No, they don't.

1:29:19.320 --> 1:29:21.160
<v Speaker 6>I didn't have it when I was running after that.

1:29:22.160 --> 1:29:26.719
<v Speaker 1>No you did not? Well that Max next and Max

1:29:26.720 --> 1:29:27.960
<v Speaker 1>facing down that Avelina.

1:29:28.720 --> 1:29:31.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you guys faltered. Man. If you guys could could

1:29:31.800 --> 1:29:34.840
<v Speaker 3>have hunted with Roy, Oh, I would give anything for that.

1:29:35.000 --> 1:29:39.280
<v Speaker 3>He was like he made everybody better. Everybody's like he

1:29:39.360 --> 1:29:43.320
<v Speaker 3>was so optimistic. It just changes it. It changes people.

1:29:43.479 --> 1:29:45.280
<v Speaker 7>Sounds like it would have been a bow hunter, now

1:29:46.160 --> 1:29:48.880
<v Speaker 7>what you would have Yeah, if I got with Roy?

1:29:49.080 --> 1:29:51.559
<v Speaker 3>Yeah yeah, he uh yeah.

1:29:51.360 --> 1:29:54.599
<v Speaker 1>He was just no you speak of him fondly man. Yeah,

1:29:54.960 --> 1:29:57.360
