And someone just kind 210 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 6: of randomly it was like out of this world. And 211 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 6: someone said, hey, is it a full moon? And we 212 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 6: looked and sure enough it was. That has happened to 213 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 6: me over and over and over again, where you have 214 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 6: these crazy It's like I tell my kids, I'm not superstitious, I. 215 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 3: Am a little. 216 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: Well, there's no doubt that the moon affects wildlife. I mean, 217 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: there's just no debate about it. But in white tailed 218 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: deer research, there's a lot of new studies that because 219 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: white tailed deer hunters have very strong philosophies about the moon, 220 00:11:54,720 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: including me, and the research they show basically the moon 221 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: doesn't really affect white tailed deer movement really. I mean yeah, 222 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: I think there's so much of human life that is anecdotal, 223 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 1: biased confirmation of just things that we that we think 224 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: or see. Like so if you're you drive every single 225 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 1: night of your life, and stuff happens to you every 226 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: single night. But when there's a full moon, there's this 227 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:36,079 Speaker 1: shining beacon and you remember stuff somehow. It imprints your 228 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: mind that that happened on a full moon, that happened 229 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: on a full moon, that happened on a full moon. 230 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: And and pretty soon when the full moon comes up, 231 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,679 Speaker 1: you're looking for something bad to happen. Yeah, and it's 232 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: like a self fulfilling prophecy. I do think there is 233 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:49,559 Speaker 1: a legitimate impact on. 234 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 3: Do you take that dogs hunting on a full No, yeah. 235 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:54,719 Speaker 1: I mean I don't even go. 236 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 7: And if you don't even know if it could be good, He's. 237 00:12:57,960 --> 00:12:59,599 Speaker 3: Done it and it's worth it. 238 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,839 Speaker 1: I've used the I'm contradicting myself. I mean, I'm telling 239 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 1: you what I believe. But deep down, like in the 240 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 1: in the my heart and soul, I believe the moon 241 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 1: is the most powerful thing. I mean, my brain is 242 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: like telling me this can't be true. But I've coon 243 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: hunted with such good dogs night after night after night 244 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 1: after night. You turn them loose on a full moon 245 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: night and just stuff happens. 246 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 3: They get Yeah. 247 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean in the last seven years, I have 248 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: not coon purposely. If it's a full moon, I'm just 249 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,319 Speaker 1: like it and I don't even go. But then again, 250 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: that's a self fulfilling prophecy in a way, because I 251 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: don't even give it a chance to be good, because 252 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: maybe every time that I didn't go. 253 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 2: Brent Reeves talked about this, does he feel the same way? 254 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: Every coon hunter feels the same way. 255 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 3: By the way, where is print Reeves? 256 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 2: Does you have a you know what Brent Reeves celebrity? 257 00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 7: Now you're saying, I mean, you've tried to. 258 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 9: Get on here, you know, just a second, going back 259 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 9: to your moon research with the white tail deer, did 260 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 9: first Light use this research and the development of their 261 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 9: new white tail. 262 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: Gear that well, since you brought it up, very good, 263 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: first Light first Light does have I mentioned to my 264 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: team here that I wanted to talk about first Light 265 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: white tail gear.

Film has an incredible amount of people 301 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 1: on it. I would say there's upwards of twenty people. 302 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: It's a really I like the film. It's a different 303 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: kind of documentary than I've ever seen in some ways, 304 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 1: like the style of it is. Its very fast paced, 305 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: very information driven, very engaging. It's but it tells the 306 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:09,440 Speaker 1: whole story of the American white tail deer and how 307 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: you know, there used to not be a lot of deer. 308 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: Now there's more deer than we've ever had since since 309 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 1: even pre European settlement. There's more white tail deer. Really, yeah, 310 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: and so and then the Kip Adams, one of the 311 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: main guys that the National Deer Association, came in from 312 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: Pennsylvania and so we all watched the film in this 313 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: big auditorium and it was really neat.

And after 509 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: like the second time, I was like, we're circling. 510 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, it was it's pretty nat you observed that. 511 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 8: And uh so the stewardess came on and you know, 512 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 8: she handled it real well. I don't want to scare 513 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 8: you all of death, but we're about to die. But 514 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 8: she said, look, we've got some problems with our landing gear, 515 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 8: and uh this is we're going to take this real serious. 516 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 2: You know we're not gonna So. 517 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 8: Would you, young man, would you handle that door? This 518 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 8: is what you do? This guy, would you handle this? 519 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 8: Get your oxygen down and put your head between your legs. 520 00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 8: And so she went through the whole deal of how 521 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 8: how we were going to handle this crash. I mean, 522 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 8: the landing gear wouldn't come down at least one leg 523 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 8: of it. And so what I found interesting was here, 524 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 8: I am an older guy, I got my family raised, 525 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 8: and I'm thinking, well, Lord, make it quick. You know, 526 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 8: I don't mind going, but you know, I'd. 527 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 2: Hate to just suffer real bad. 528 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,719 Speaker 8: But Clay's young, he's got a family, he's got a wife, 529 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 8: he's got a lot of responsibilities, so he had a 530 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 8: few more prayer requests than I did. And Uh, anyway, 531 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 8: how did it end up? 532 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 2: Well? So we landed this dad and I jumped out. 533 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: The stewardess came on and she told us what was 534 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 1: going on, and what it was is that the breaks 535 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 1: of the landing gear didn't work okay, and they were 536 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: anticipating a potential crash on the landing and the stewardess 537 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: she said, so we are preparing for a crash landing. 538 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 1: This is what we would do if there's a crash landing. 539 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: And I mean it was like it wasn't a drill. 540 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: And from the time we started our descent. 541 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 2: Did you is this over where you took off? 542 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 1: Yes, it was like apparently they took off and everything 543 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 1: was okay, and when they went to pull the landing 544 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: gear back up, it wouldn't pull back up. And I 545 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 1: just remember the problem was is that there were no 546 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 1: brakes on the landing gear, so you were just going 547 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 1: to come in super hot and potentially like burn the 548 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 1: rubber off the tires, spark up on the plane. They 549 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: had fire trucks. So we circle circle forever for probably 550 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 1: an hour because they were trying to run the fuel 551 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 1: out of the plane, and so they run all the 552 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: fuel out of the plane and then when we go 553 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 1: down to land. But from the time we start to 554 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: descend that that stewardess that Eric Canada. 555 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 2: Was taught to yell. 556 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 1: What did she yell? She eld non stop, like a 557 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 1: phrase like. 558 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 7: Cover your head, watch your feet, We're gonna give you 559 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 7: some good deed. 560 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 2: I don't know what she. 561 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 1: But but we had our heads down and she's going 562 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 1: It wasn't a ratic it was she was screaming something 563 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: that she was supposed to yell at us, And uh yeah, 564 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: I mean we really thought this is gonna be a 565 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 1: crash landing. We did, and they had fire trucks all 566 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:33,719 Speaker 1: down the air strip and uh, I just remember it 567 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 1: was just a rough, fast landing. Hey, you know, let 568 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 1: me let me add one thing about that trip. I 569 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 1: thought it was kind of fun. 570 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 8: As the daddy, we bear hunted and we couldn't get 571 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 8: a bear, and our guide couldn't put us on a bear. 572 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 8: And finally Clay said, would it be any problem if 573 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 8: I went back to this other pasture we were on 574 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 8: And the guy said, well, yeah, you can go back 575 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 8: over there within about five minutes he killed a pretty 576 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 8: good bear with an amazing shot with his bow. 577 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 2: So I mean he did his own guide work. 578 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a good hunt. That was that bear 579 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 1: right up there, us sitting right up there. 580 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 581 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, we'd seen it. We'd seen a bear out in 582 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: an oat field the first day and I liked the 583 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 1: spot and we were having trouble and we never went 584 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 1: back there, and I just had a feeling and I said, hey, 585 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:26,719 Speaker 1: take me back over there and just let me out 586 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: of the truck. And he was like okay, and he 587 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 1: pulled me up on the county road and we had 588 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 1: permission to hunt this place. And I jumped a barber 589 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: our fence, ran out into this oat field, came around 590 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,440 Speaker 1: a corner. There's a bear in the middle of this oatfield, 591 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 1: laying on its belly like right at dark, shoveling oats 592 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 1: in its mouth. And uh, and I'd been shooting my 593 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 1: Matthew's d x T and uh killed a bear. 594 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. 595 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 1: That was a good That was a great trip, thanks dad. Yeah, 596 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: so that was that was the time we almost crashed. 597 00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 2: Josh. 598 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 1: If you ever had any near death experiences trying to 599 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 1: think in Canada. 600 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 2: I have not in Canada, man. But I was never 601 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 2: much of a daredevil, you know, I didn't. I didn't 602 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 2: you know, I didn't drive my car fast and didn't. 603 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 2: But one thing I'd love to do that was that 604 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 2: was life threatening. And then but we used to, Man, 605 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 2: we used to love to jump off bluffs when I 606 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 2: was a teenager and we would go to the we 607 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 2: would go to the lake and jump off bluffs. But 608 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 2: we'd go to the river and jump off bluffs too. 609 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 2: And there's a spot that it was like it had 610 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:36,960 Speaker 2: a it had a ah. We all called it skull 611 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 2: rock because it kind of looked like a like a school. 612 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 2: It was forty three feet high, but you had to 613 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 2: hit a hole that was about I don't know, maybe 614 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 2: ten foot around and when you hit the water, you 615 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 2: had to ball up because you would still hit the bottom. 616 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 2: And man, we used to do that. It was thrilling 617 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 2: to me. But I look back on it now and 618 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 2: I'm like, God, that was stupid. Yeah, And we used 619 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 2: to swim up in the tunnels against the current that 620 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 2: you couldn't turn around and yew, and I just think 621 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 2: if the slightest little thing went wrong. But I love 622 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 2: being in the water. Back then, and I know you 623 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,799 Speaker 2: had you had a close call in the water, but man, 624 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 2: we we just we loved doing stupid stuff in the water. 625 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 2: So I look back and think many of those could 626 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 2: have been life threatening, but we. 627 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 1: Just Christy, have you ever had a near death experience 628 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: in Canada or Alaska? 629 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:29,239 Speaker 2: No? 630 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,800 Speaker 1: I have not anywhere else. 631 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 6: No. 632 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,280 Speaker 11: I think the only story I would tell, and really 633 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:38,520 Speaker 11: just to make fun of myself, is that there was 634 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 11: a summer we were hiking and one of the people 635 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,320 Speaker 11: with us, I was actually with Clay and mister Newcombe 636 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 11: on this hiking trip, screams ahead of us this young 637 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 11: girl and finds this huge timber rattler.

That really impacted me in thinking about 941 00:49:56,480 --> 00:50:00,400 Speaker 2: how I do things, whether that's in the boat, whether 942 00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:03,480 Speaker 2: that's in life, whether that's you know what I mean 943 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:06,560 Speaker 2: making commitments and you know what I mean, tying myself 944 00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:08,839 Speaker 2: up so I can't make that commitment. I thought it 945 00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:12,120 Speaker 2: was really I thought it was really profound. Yeah, profound story. 946 00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:16,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was just every time they delayed for whatever reason, 947 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:18,280 Speaker 1: that river was just rising. 948 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:19,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, yep. 949 00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:23,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was scary too to me.
