We're here in Lanai, Hawaii, uh in 22 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 1: a house that we rented pretty much pretty much heaven 23 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: if you like chasing access here. Yep, I'm here with 24 00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: Sam Sohol. You may know him from podcast number mm hmmm, 25 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: I don't know the number six seventh somewhere right in there. Yep. 26 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: You mean for that, or he may have seen his 27 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 1: bus or his photos or all the deer he kills 28 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: here and I try to only kill one a year. 29 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: I'm not like some of the other people that have 30 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: joined us on this trip, where you know, we're gonna 31 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 1: just call this like the Lani recap. Yeah, mostly because 32 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: we couldn't convince anyone else the podcast. So they're all 33 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: too busy hunting killing animals, and they didn't want to 34 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 1: be bothered with sitting down the podcast. It's a funny. 35 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: It's a funny thing because you're basically sitting in paradise, 36 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: but like everyone's just on the go the whole time, 37 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: just need to be hunting. Well, the post I made 38 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 1: on Instagram, it's like you don't you're in paradise, but 39 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: you're hunting, and it's the best hunting there is, and 40 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: there's you can kill them as many deer as you please, basically, 41 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: and there's all day long and there's deer everywhere. So 42 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: it's well, I sit around when there's an opportunity to 43 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: you had the shoot shoot a buck. Yeah. I mean 44 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: you can literally be stalking deer the entire day if 45 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: you want to be. Yeah, if you want to be, 46 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: if you can, if you can manage it. Now, we 47 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: or a lot of what we have done is walk 48 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: around and scare things. Yeah, I mean I think how 49 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: many deer were killed on this trip save like what 50 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: might happen today or tomorrow. M I think we dropped 51 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,679 Speaker 1: off nineteen at the butcher. Yeah, we'll call it. We'll 52 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: call it an even twenty. And there was a bunch 53 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: of hunters. But I mean with with a bow, you know, 54 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: most hunts you go and it's like if you kill 55 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: one thing, you know, save a turkey hunt or something 56 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 1: like that. But big game animals, if you kill one thing, 57 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: one animal on a trip, one buck, that's the whole 58 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: point of it. Yeah, But here it's like one buck 59 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: a day would be maybe the goal, which is a 60 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: crazy goal, but it's awesome. It's a I mean, the 61 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: the amount of just like experience you can gain from 62 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 1: spending that much time like sneaking up on animals is crazy. 63 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: So tell just Sam, tell everybody who was on the trip. 64 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 1: So it was myself, ye, Ben O'Brien, Uh, yeah, the 65 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 1: host of the show, Cameron Haynes, Joe Rogan, John Dudley. 66 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: Do you want me to go in depth of who 67 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: these people are? Pretty much everybody know. I'd like you 68 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 1: to talk a little bit about each one, you know, 69 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: all right, Uh, give it a little color. Yeah. Cameron Haynes, 70 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 1: he some people might know him from running long distances 71 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: and shooting things with the bow that ye has a 72 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: fairly tiny social media presence in the hunting industry. Hasn't 73 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: done much on social media, Like, no, we keep trying 74 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: to convince him to get Instagram. He's old school. Yeah, 75 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: he's just twittering it up out there. So we got 76 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 1: Cam Haynes, Cam Haynes, we got John Dudley or knock 77 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: on TV, and he is uh what was a professional 78 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: shooter at one point and archery coach and yeah, shooter 79 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: of big animals. You have to excuse me while say 80 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: I's talking about I'm drinking a beer. If you hear 81 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 1: like Google club look look, uh yeah, So John lives 82 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: in Iowa shoots big white tail, but also travels and 83 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 1: hunts hogs and elk and everything all over the place. 84 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: Then we have Remy Warren, who is a guide all 85 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: over the world but most like Montana, New Zealand, travels 86 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: back and forth most of the year guiding and hunting 87 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 1: and filming. And then yeah, yep, who else we got? 88 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: Adam green Tree was on this trip. He was here 89 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: and his wife Kimmy, so they were both up. Adam 90 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 1: is Uh how did you describe him? It's probably not 91 00:05:55,880 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 1: for said on the podcast. Uh, he is. He's a 92 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 1: man among like he just is the guy who can 93 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 1: do anything. And if he chose to be if he 94 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: chose to be the King of Australia, I'm not sure 95 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 1: they have kings over there never been, but if he 96 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: chose to be the King of Australia, he would be 97 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: that because anything he does, he builds his own cabins, 98 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: he builds vehicles, he kills animals, he just pretty much 99 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: anything that he wants to do. Yeah, anything he wants 100 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: to be good at he's good at it. It's one 101 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 1: of those guys you want to hate, but we can't 102 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: at all, not change, no way to hate him. He's 103 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 1: the greatest um Joe Rogan Joe Joe. I'm not sure 104 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: most people know who that is, but as a podcast 105 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 1: I would say that a lot of your audience does 106 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: not know. He's got a small time podcast. Where has 107 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 1: he talks? I think about fighting or something like that. 108 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 1: He's here, He's uh, you know, I'll be getting to 109 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: know him a little bit. He seems like he's already 110 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: a good guy. He might make it in this life. 111 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: I've asked him a lot of questions about his time 112 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: on Fear Factor. I just keep saying I smoke Rox 113 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: Joe Rogue, and he doesn't. He never laughs. But the 114 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: best part about this year's Joe Landed got into a 115 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: like change clothes, got into a truck parked, was shooting 116 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: his bow at a target, spotted the guy spotted a 117 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: deer and they snuck in and he shot it. Was 118 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: It's an awesome velvet buck fifteen minutes like that's he 119 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: was here for no time at all. Since then. I 120 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: don't think he's he's been stalking him up but hasn't 121 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: any other shots. But you take, you know, you take 122 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: that all day. And then we had Shane Dorian. Dorian, 123 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: who is a professional surfer, probably the one of the 124 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: best or historically one of the best big wave surfers 125 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: in the world. Um native of Hawaii, kind of a guy. 126 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: He's been over to the Nine hunted a bunch and 127 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: was the first person who told me about this island 128 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: when we were in New Zealand probably two years ago. 129 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: So I imagine if you were to say, like, how 130 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: did this all get started? Ah, that would be it. 131 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: This is how it would have gotten started. And if 132 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: if you don't know who Shane Dory is, just YouTube 133 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: Shane Dory and Jaws. Oh yeah, like just surfing Jaws. 134 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: It's and when you're hanging out in Shane, it's such 135 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 1: an unassuming dude. When you're hanging out with him, you're thinking, 136 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: this guy, you know, he can't have done what he's done. No, 137 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 1: he just such a normal nice He's intense, but intense 138 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 1: and the most you know, unassuming way that you can imagine. 139 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 1: And then you watch videos of him surfing down, surfing 140 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: down a wall of water, that's a hundred stories high. 141 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: It's insane and you can't imagine how he would do it. Yeah, 142 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: who else is on the trail up? Who do we miss? 143 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: I don't think we think that was that was it? 144 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: Can we say Kemmy green Tree? Yeah, Remy, we got him. 145 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 1: That's everybody. John's wife, Dudley was here. She's lovely. She's 146 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 1: one of my favorites. If she could be she was 147 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: about hunter, we might get John out of the picture 148 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:24,559 Speaker 1: and just keep her. But overall, pretty pretty good crew 149 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: on this. Yeah, I think, um, when we started thinking 150 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: about Lena, I so, yeah, I might as well go 151 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 1: through the whole story, because that's what this podcast is 152 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: going to be. Lani recap um Two years ago, Remy, 153 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: Shane and I we're hunting New Zealand and is it 154 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: it's a great place. I mean it's We were hunting 155 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: a fallI deer ranch in the center of New Zealand 156 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: in this little near this little town called Exandra that 157 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: Remy knows, and Shane kept talking about Lenai. We really 158 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: kept talking about hunting in Hawaii altogether as being comparable 159 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: to this ranch. We were on the amount of deer 160 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 1: and things you could do and so sparked my interest 161 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: then and after that trip, I was like, Shane is 162 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: such a great dude. I'm like, we get a hunt 163 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: again together, and so we started talking about it. And 164 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: then a year later, Um, I met a guy named 165 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 1: John Dubin who is the I believe I'll say this wrong, 166 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: but he's in some relation or is close to Larry Ellison, 167 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: who is the founder of Oracle, one of the richest 168 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: people in the world, and he owns this island. He's 169 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: literally the king of Lanai City. He owns everything. Um 170 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: and I met John Dubin and he mentioned, Hey, I'm 171 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: starting an outfit on Lanai if you ever want to 172 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 1: come hunting, and that's how immediately called Dorian him like, dude, 173 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 1: we gotta Oh my gosh, worlds are colliding, worlds are colliding. 174 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,599 Speaker 1: We gotta do it.

Uh So, we had a great trip last 184 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: year and then talked to duping in the boys at 185 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 1: Pineapple Brothers Outfitting this year and they're like, come back 186 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 1: and bring more people.

Oh yeah, I mean 191 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: even better than last year. He's been way better than 192 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: last year, way better because I think last year, you know, 193 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: the outfit here was just kind of starting and we 194 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: were just kind of feeling our way around. But this 195 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: year is like we knew what to do, We knew 196 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: the guys, we knew the town, we knew the new 197 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 1: the spots, we kind of knew the deer a little 198 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: bit better. I knew what we wanted to do, and 199 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: it from day from minute one, Oh yeah, ship was on. 200 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: It was on. And um who killed first? I think 201 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: Shane did. Yeah, yeah, because it was evening one. Yeah, 202 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: that's back up John Dudley. Definitely, Dudley, definite. Yeah, Dudley 203 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: showed up a couple days early, so Dudley came in 204 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: to show us up. He killed three on the first day. 205 00:12:57,840 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: So here's just I want to say a little bit 206 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: about John. You might follow him or no. About John 207 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:08,679 Speaker 1: and his archery proficiency. He's probably one of the best 208 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: shooters in the in that I've ever met, or in 209 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: the world. UM coaches internationally and and does all those things. 210 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: Been on this podcast before. But among all the savages, 211 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 1: he is top level. Like he's public land here is 212 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: pretty the deer scarce. There's not as many deers there are 213 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 1: are on the private outfitted areas. Not only that access 214 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,680 Speaker 1: to are not easy to kill. They're not easy to 215 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 1: talk or easy to kill either. One and he went 216 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,079 Speaker 1: out before we were even here, like seven or eight 217 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: days ago, with his wife and a guide, went to 218 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 1: the public and shot three deer in an afternoon. Yeah, 219 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 1: it's crazy. How long do you think it would take 220 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: a normal person to just to kill three deer on 221 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:02,439 Speaker 1: that public A lot lot more time a week. It 222 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: would make me a week. Yeah, and then another morning 223 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: this week he you know, shot two more dear when 224 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 1: I was shooting photos of them. So it's uh, yeah, 225 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 1: it just happens for him, It just makes it happen. Yeah, 226 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 1: he's not so that, there's just a mentality about that. 227 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: And Sam has followed all these guys around this week 228 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: so he can has a good insight on not only 229 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: what the stalks are like or what the hunts were like, 230 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: but each one of those guys and like what they 231 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: bring to the table over and above just their personality 232 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: and what you might know him as. Like, each of 233 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 1: them has their own way to succeed, and what I've 234 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: found is important for me. It's just to to like 235 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: listen to them, even though we're friends. I'm not gonna 236 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: ask him, like how do you succeed? John, but like 237 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: just watch him and listen to the situation they get 238 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 1: in and understand the ins and outs of what makes 239 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: them tick and take try to take pieces of that 240 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: and apply it to my own bow hunting, which hasn't 241 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 1: worked thus far this but now and they all have 242 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: very different styles. Yeah, so it was cool to to 243 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: be with all the different people and kind of follow 244 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 1: them around and see what they did differently. Yeah, I 245 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 1: don't think there's any one right way. You just gotta 246 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 1: find the way that works for you and do that 247 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 1: because you know, a guy like green Tree is a 248 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: little bit more like way more aggressive than a guy 249 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: like Shane. So it's it's just yeah, yeah, yeah, I 250 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: mean if you were to break it down, you know. 251 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: So Dudley goes out kills three deer, sends us a 252 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: selfie of him, and these three deer were immediately like 253 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: did you hit those deer on the highway? Like you 254 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 1: can't just kill three deer on the first day, but 255 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 1: he did. Um. And to even go back further than that, 256 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: I mean, Lanai is an island. He's a privately own island. Um, 257 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: it's you know, said Larry Elison is now the owner, 258 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: but previous owner, previous owner. Um, there's a couple owners 259 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: in between. But the most notable thing that anybody would 260 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 1: know is Doll Pineapple Company one point owned this island 261 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 1: and it was most basically a giant pineapple plantation. So 262 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 1: you can still see a lot of the irrigation pipes 263 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 1: and a lot of the black tubing that was out 264 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: there from from the pineapple plants in that operation when 265 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: you're out there, but it's essentially big flat brush country. 266 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: I mean, for the lack of a better term, there's 267 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 1: a bunch of lantana bushes and a bunch of tall 268 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: grass and just big flat, rolling hillsides full of access 269 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: to here. Yeah, it's it's a crazy landscape to hunt. 270 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: And it's the change between years was very drastic because 271 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 1: it's been so wet this year. So last year there 272 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: was still all the bushes and stuff, but the grass 273 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: in between was a lot shorter, and this year it's 274 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: like walking through a six ft tall jungle in a 275 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: lot of places. And so for you, like I think 276 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: water when you're hunting something like this, really any spot 277 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: in stalk. But then you got to know the landscape, 278 00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: like you know that you don't have a lot of room, 279 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 1: really don't have a lot of room to move at all, 280 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 1: because there's deer everywhere. It's not like they're going to 281 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 1: be in a cool lead or be down in a 282 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: basin somewhere where you know you can drop in and 283 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: look and glass them up. Literally around every corner there 284 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 1: could be a deer under a bush, or a deer 285 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 1: in a bottom, or a deer on the top of 286 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 1: a mound or whatever. So in this country you just 287 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 1: kind of know that you have to know where the 288 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 1: deer are, have a plan, get your wind right and 289 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: go slow or at least and know that you're probably 290 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: like if you're going after a buck, you just know 291 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 1: you're probably going to blow some deer out between you 292 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: and the and that deer. What's that sound like, Sam, 293 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 1: I don't should I do it directly right in the microphone? Yep, 294 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: that's why it sounds like. Now, so I've heard that 295 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: sound a thousand times in the least five and a 296 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: half days. So that's that's when they're basically barking at you. Yeah, 297 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: that's their bark. That's that's kind of like the fuck. Yeah, 298 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,879 Speaker 1: you know, get out of here, like there's danger. That 299 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,239 Speaker 1: sounds great. When you get like a herd of like 300 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 1: forty is that are to all barking at you, it's 301 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,199 Speaker 1: really then they're just talking to each other, like you 302 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: see him, he's an idiot? Why is he over there? 303 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: Do you think we can't see him or something? Let's 304 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:15,440 Speaker 1: let's all run together simultaneously. It's nice. Sometimes you get 305 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: a nice cascading effect where you you scare like ten deer, 306 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: and then they run and they scare like deer, and 307 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,880 Speaker 1: then those thirty deer run and scare a hundred deer, 308 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, if you just got a stampede. 309 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 1: And some of these deer, these dear native of India, 310 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: and they were brought here as a gift for a king. 311 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 1: I don't can't remember the king's name, but we'll look 312 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 1: that up and put that in the show notes. Um. 313 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 1: But they have built in their genetic code somewhere deep down, 314 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 1: this switched on will to live that I'm sure was 315 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,120 Speaker 1: baked in over a hundred of years of predation from 316 00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 1: Bengal tigers and jaguars and just a pretty harsh way 317 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,920 Speaker 1: to live as these in their native country. Yeah, they're 318 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: pretty they're pretty alert, and they're like that in Texas 319 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,119 Speaker 1: and they're like that here. I mean, they just have 320 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 1: it built in. Whereas you know, I'm sure there's some 321 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 1: conditioning that goes along the way, but I think these 322 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: deer are most connected to the way that they were, 323 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 1: Whereas I've seen other deer and situations get conditioned to 324 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: a certain thing, like walking around houses or being in 325 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: an urban landscape like the white tailed deers are pretty 326 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 1: adaptable animal. Um. The mule deer is not so adaptable. 327 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 1: But they are also in urban situations where they can 328 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,119 Speaker 1: walk up to them. So, but I can't ever imagine 329 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:43,120 Speaker 1: an access to your walking around somebody's backyard at any level. 330 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: I'm sure they do. Yeah, but it's it just seems 331 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: like a different a different type of alertness. That's yeah, 332 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 1: it's a fun. It's a fun animal to chase. It's 333 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 1: because it's uh, they don't let you get away with much. 334 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 1: If they are on alert. You take a shot. The 335 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:11,679 Speaker 1: the ducking of the string unbelievable. We'll fast forward to 336 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: the last night when Sam and I were stalking up 337 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: some deer and some really tall brush and some lantana 338 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:23,400 Speaker 1: bushes and thick high grass and on these red dirt roads. 339 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,399 Speaker 1: You kind of take your shoes off, getting your socks 340 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: and just slowly stalk down these roads. Be super quiet, 341 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: look for antler tips in the tall grass, try to 342 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 1: find these deer, see the deer before they see you, essentially, 343 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 1: and make make some stocks. Well, we went through a 344 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: few stalks. The first one deer pops out of forty 345 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: five yards on this road. We stuck up a little 346 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 1: closer stop range. It a couple of deer across the road, 347 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,640 Speaker 1: A third gear across the road. I draw it spots 348 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 1: me or hears it or something, and it's looking at me, 349 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,159 Speaker 1: and I send an arrow at forty five yards. The 350 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: arrow went perfectly towards its shoulder, but the deer was 351 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: buried in the dirt by the time. Yeah, that deer 352 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 1: was halfway across the road by the time the arrow 353 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: got toward it was It wasn't an entire deer's body 354 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 1: above where the deer was. Yeah. Yeah, next year, I 355 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,879 Speaker 1: shot out kind of same thing, thirty five yards, shot 356 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 1: through a little hole in the brush, and it ducked 357 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 1: and not as bad as the other one, but ducked 358 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: on that. And then the third one I was going 359 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: to shoot at was sixty some yards away and wasn't 360 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 1: looking at us. And this is the same range, sixty 361 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: six and I drew my bow. I was like momb city. 362 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: I said that ship out loud, and then that deer 363 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: was gone. Yeah, there was no bombs deer. So that's 364 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 1: I mean, that's kind of just the way it goes 365 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 1: out of here. You're not scared to shoot an arrow 366 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 1: at these deer because they are over populated. There are 367 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 1: a lot of sick deer here. Um. I don't know 368 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: if that's directly due to the overpopulation, but that those 369 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 1: things seem to always correlate, oh, in these types of areas. 370 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 1: So you know, not that you want to take unethical 371 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 1: shots per se, but you understand that that it's a 372 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 1: necessity to do to take some of these deer out 373 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: of here, you know, and the you know, the guides 374 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: of the operation, they're going out and shooting deer at 375 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: night to just work on controlling the population. I think, 376 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,679 Speaker 1: you know, they they'll go out and shoot thirty in 377 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: a night, and then they donate all the meat to 378 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: the town. You can sign up and yeah, of course, 379 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: of course you get the meat. But like, just the 380 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: number of deer that they have to call out of 381 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 1: here each year to maintain the population from being completely 382 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: over run is crazy. Well, and you know, it's a 383 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:45,919 Speaker 1: pretty easy equation. You take a non native species and 384 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 1: you drop it onto a island that pushed up out 385 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 1: of the ocean, a piece of red dirty drop them here. 386 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: You put people here, or they were here when they 387 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 1: were obviously here when they were put here, but you 388 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 1: try to dial in the cohabitation. There's no predation, there's 389 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 1: no winter kill, there's no really, there's nothing other than 390 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 1: humans to kill these animals. And there's food everywhere, and 391 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 1: there's food everywhere. Everything is food. Everything they walk in 392 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 1: his food. Every bush, every tree is food. And that's 393 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 1: what you get. I mean, there are thousands of deer here. 394 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: There's nothing to see. Five hundred deer in a night, 395 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean how many we see this morning 396 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: just crossing from the flat back. Probably three hundred, that's 397 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,719 Speaker 1: all guessing, but more deer than you. You sit there 398 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: and just watch them cross, cross, cross, cross. And so 399 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 1: I think it's funny like the sheds, you know, like 400 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,639 Speaker 1: finding this time of year is all fired up about 401 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,679 Speaker 1: hiking around the mountains and wherever finding shed antlers, And 402 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: here you can walk around not even try and pick 403 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 1: up five in a day, or if you go try 404 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: you could pick up a pick up load. Yeah, it's 405 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 1: just it's such a unique situation. It's such a unique 406 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 1: way to think about hunting and meat and what our 407 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 1: role is with the role of of hunters both that 408 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: pay money because and a lot of international situations and 409 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:22,159 Speaker 1: impoverished nations like you're thinking of hunting bringing value to 410 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:26,359 Speaker 1: a situation, and I think hunting does bring some value 411 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: to this, to this island. I mean it brings jobs, 412 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 1: and it brings but it's not so much that like 413 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: hunting brings tourism dollars. It adds another experience for people 414 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 1: who visit here, and then it adds a delicious meat 415 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,679 Speaker 1: to the table of a lot of people. Um, And 416 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 1: there's a lot of really passionate hunters here because they 417 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,639 Speaker 1: have access to to that this amount of game, and 418 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 1: it's not really regulated in the way it is in 419 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: the States. So it feels different and it feels different 420 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: to hunt these these dear for sure, UM feels different 421 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 1: than white tails. It feels differ I mean, it just does. 422 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,360 Speaker 1: And that I think that's why we all, I mean 423 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 1: we all enjoyed for a lot of reasons. But I 424 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: think one of the reasons that you think about the 425 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,400 Speaker 1: access here as a whole, the population as a whole, 426 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 1: not just I gotta go kill one buck. You're thinking, 427 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: I gotta shoot a nice buck. Some call deer a 428 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: couple of dose. If there's a sick deer, I'll take 429 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: that out. Like it really is holistic and the way 430 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 1: you think about the deer as opposed to Oh, I've 431 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: got to shoot a thirty buck and then go home. 432 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:34,679 Speaker 1: So it does change. Is there any other places like that? 433 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,199 Speaker 1: I can't even think of any places like that that 434 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,879 Speaker 1: I've ever hunted. I've certainly never been anywhere anywhere like this. 435 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 1: The amount of deer, the amount of deer they'll let 436 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,399 Speaker 1: you shoot. I mean, I think there's a lot of 437 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 1: places where animals need to be called course, but New 438 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 1: Zealand comes to mind. Is a similar kind of attitude 439 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: towards towards game. But it's just a different environment. There's 440 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 1: not as many of the animals plugged into it to 441 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 1: those places, right, So I think that's why this makes 442 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 1: it unique. And um, do your access to your roar? 443 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 1: Do the roar? So it's a it's a variation of 444 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: the bark. It's not nearly as harsh some mail. It's 445 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: a mail, but it's like, now we're gonna go into 446 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 1: the mail. Access to here. This is the male act. 447 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 1: Feel like Jim Carey in a Spinua when he's like, 448 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: now the mating call of a yack yack, this is 449 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: the now the mating call. So this is, yeah, an 450 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: access to roar sounds something like this. It's ah, it's 451 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: kind of shrill, but hey and and seen. So for 452 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: all of you listening, you're welcome. Yeah, I've been practicing 453 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 1: all week. Pull over your car. We're gonna do it again. 454 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 1: So that's uh the same. Actually tried that last night 455 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,680 Speaker 1: to no avail. The problem is I got a little 456 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 1: bit nerve us, and so it didn't sound nearly as 457 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: like calm stage friend. So it's okay to do around us, 458 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,159 Speaker 1: but not around actual deer. I had a little, you know, 459 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: I got a little too much growl into it, and 460 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden that all I heard was 461 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 1: stuff running through the bushes, and I thought stuff was 462 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 1: like running in No. I just scared that you thought 463 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:23,920 Speaker 1: you were roar brought in a deer you never know alive. Yes, 464 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 1: I thought I was that good for So those are 465 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 1: the sounds. That's the deer. I mean, the deer brings 466 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: a lot to the table. I mean I have more 467 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: respect now this week for access deer and what they 468 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,680 Speaker 1: are and in their place in this landscape. And I 469 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: think a lot of times you think about invasive species 470 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 1: are non native species, and it's they almost remove a 471 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 1: little bit of respect from it, you know. But in 472 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 1: this case, I think Lanai has done a great job 473 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 1: of just kind of embracing this animal. It doesn't really 474 00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: belong here, it's not from here, but they've they've done 475 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:01,880 Speaker 1: a good job of kind of like accepting it into 476 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,479 Speaker 1: their culture and bringing in and in house and like 477 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 1: the access here is our deer, come hunt um where 478 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:10,919 Speaker 1: New Zealand is kind of a little bit of the 479 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: little bit of the options. Yeah, they want to eradicate, 480 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: they want to take them all out, you know. I mean, 481 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,440 Speaker 1: if you go to a restaurant or anything here, it's 482 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,199 Speaker 1: access deer is always on the menu. So and that's 483 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,119 Speaker 1: why I think it's just culturally just appropriate the animal. 484 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: If you've got you've got an animal that just is 485 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: non native but is now pervasive place you live, why 486 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 1: the fund wouldn't you just say keep it? Yeah, let's 487 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:36,239 Speaker 1: make it part of our thing. We're not gonna get 488 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 1: rid of it. It's delicious, it's so good. That's the best. Yeah, 489 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 1: I mean we, you know, moving on on the trip. 490 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 1: I mean, Dudley was bombing deer early in the week. 491 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,959 Speaker 1: We showed up. When by we I mean Sam myself, 492 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 1: the green Trees and uh Willow and el choppo that's 493 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 1: Spanish with the chopo.

I haven't I have talked to Bob. Start 534 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 1: us at the beginning. Tell the story, So Bob the Butcher, 535 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: er noise, I'll make the roar to start the story, 536 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 1: and then I'll end it with a roar with a bark. 537 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 1: And I'm not gonna do that. So Bob the Butcher, Our, 538 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 1: how it's great. The house we rented is like see 539 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: it like about sixty yards away is Bob the Butcher. 540 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 1: So Bob was born and raised in Hawaii. I don't 541 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 1: believe on Lena, but he has lived on Lanai for 542 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 1: quite a while now and he tells everybody's like, I'm 543 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: hungry person. So I knew I needed to get better 544 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 1: at cooking and cleaning game. And so he just has 545 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 1: taken it to the next level. And so he's a 546 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 1: in the name, clearly a butcher. But you can bring 547 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 1: your dear to him. He hangs it, skins it, lets 548 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 1: it cool for a second, and then starts breaking it down. 549 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 1: And the cuts that he does, I mean he does 550 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: a the rib roast is the most amazing thing to me. 551 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: So it's you've got the backstraps, the run all the 552 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: way down the deer and then he keeps the ribs 553 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 1: attached to that part, basically short ribs that yeah, short ribs, 554 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 1: cuts them off and you have like a frenched out. 555 00:32:57,280 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 1: I don't even know what you would call that at 556 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: this point because we don't do it's not a predominant thing, 557 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: and you don't see it very often. You see it's 558 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,719 Speaker 1: some it's starting to be some people are starting to do. 559 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 1: It's a lot of extra effort. Yeah, for what I 560 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: would say is a better result, but it's just something 561 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 1: new that I've never seen. And you get eat backstrap 562 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 1: on the bone, which you never you don't do, just 563 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,959 Speaker 1: don't do. So if he does that cut and then 564 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: it's you know, shoulders and hams and everything, and it's 565 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 1: all hung up and he lets it age for a 566 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: bit and cools it and then he vacuum steals everything 567 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 1: and if you want, you can do like Kobe style beef, 568 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 1: ground beef like brown venison and make burgers that we 569 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: had that. I mean, everything that he does is taking 570 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: one step further than most people are going to go through. 571 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 1: You know, do we have the Bob the Butcher paper?

And if you come 658 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:20,040 Speaker 1: to one Eye and you kill a deer, do not 659 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 1: do anything with it other than take it to Bapa Butcher, 660 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 1: because it just it just takes he So we're taking 661 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:31,240 Speaker 1: all our meat home and in eight or nine giant 662 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 1: yettie hoppers, and it's all vacuum sealed already. Is it 663 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 1: all frozen? Most of it's hard frozen. Most of it's 664 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,720 Speaker 1: hard frozen, so we don't really need the coolers, which 665 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:46,759 Speaker 1: you know, sorry Eddie, but but it doesn't hurt. It'll 666 00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 1: keep them frozen. Fenya kise you get lost on the airline. 667 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:55,319 Speaker 1: But it's just you know, it's just next level stuff. 668 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:58,400 Speaker 1: And then when you come here that's you. Maybe you 669 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 1: shoot a buck early and you showed a big buck, Sam, 670 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:04,399 Speaker 1: but then you can start thinking about just the meat 671 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 1: piece of it. How much meat am I gonna have home? 672 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 1: And then it really is something different to share with 673 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 1: your family and friends. And you know, back to our 674 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:16,360 Speaker 1: little event there the other night with Dudley cooking, I 675 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 1: mean he cooked tenderloin with balsamic reduction, and there was 676 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:23,360 Speaker 1: other stuff like rosemary and go, I don't know what 677 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 1: it was, but we'd have to have a lot going on. 678 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:31,239 Speaker 1: But when he did those tomahawk chops, tomahawk chops, I mean, 679 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 1: it was melting your mouth unbelievable. And he did he 680 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 1: he cooked it first on the trigger and then and 681 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 1: then cut it and then he seared both sides that 682 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:46,120 Speaker 1: and then went hand it to you. Oh, it was 683 00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:50,840 Speaker 1: like they melted and the burgers out of that prime 684 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:56,120 Speaker 1: like that prime's like hallapenos and bacon and cheese, get 685 00:39:56,160 --> 00:40:00,839 Speaker 1: out of my life. Unbelievable. But that was one There's 686 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 1: certain points I think in trips like this, and you know, 687 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:06,640 Speaker 1: Suffice say, Sam knows, and I know, and everybody knows, 688 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:10,319 Speaker 1: like we're lucky to not only have these experiences, you know, 689 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,400 Speaker 1: with the the animal and the place and the people 690 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:17,359 Speaker 1: that are here, but just to call this in some 691 00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:22,280 Speaker 1: way of profession is unbelievable. And there's moments where you know, 692 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 1: you gotta stop and look at the big picture, Like 693 00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:26,799 Speaker 1: a couple of times this week I did. And one 694 00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:28,560 Speaker 1: of the times, as I was sitting at a table 695 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 1: with Joe Rogan and Cam Haines and Remy Warren and 696 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 1: just laughing and eating the best meat in the world, 697 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:40,400 Speaker 1: and I'm just thinking, I'm not sure I can improve 698 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,680 Speaker 1: upon this any Like we may have peaked too early 699 00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: and only thirty two, Like where do you go? Where 700 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 1: do I go from here? But I think that's that's 701 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 1: the feeling that I got from from that one night. Now, 702 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:56,040 Speaker 1: we were also spread out in this trip and people 703 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 1: were coming to go and everybody's so intent and enjoying 704 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 1: hunting that you don't ever really get to stop and 705 00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 1: kind of be together like that. Yeah. Um, but we 706 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 1: were that night and it was awesome. Yea, And it 707 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: was great. I think we did a couple of things 708 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 1: this trip that really made it. It It was the dinner 709 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:16,400 Speaker 1: with everybody, and then we actually stopped for a minute 710 00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:18,319 Speaker 1: to take a group photo. Yeah. I caught a lot 711 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 1: of flak for that, Yeah, but I hadn't made them 712 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 1: all do it. Yeah, but it was so worth it, Yeah, 713 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 1: because it's always one of those shots like it's you know, 714 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:29,440 Speaker 1: like that used to be the shot that was the 715 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 1: photo you get you get whatever, you know, a trophy photo, 716 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 1: a gripping grand from whatever you shot, and then a 717 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:37,920 Speaker 1: group photo of who you were with, And those were 718 00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 1: like the two photos you came home with from a 719 00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:42,280 Speaker 1: hunting trip. Yeah. No, If I would to put together 720 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 1: like group shots of Hans I've been on in the 721 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 1: last couple of years, I would. It might made me cry. Yeah, Like, 722 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 1: it's that intense for me. You know, I find even 723 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 1: with the podcast, man like engaging with people that I 724 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:57,480 Speaker 1: care about, what I care about that I like a 725 00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 1: lot and respect a lot is like a drug to me. 726 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 1: Sometimes even hunting alone and I'm like, this is really great, 727 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:09,640 Speaker 1: But I'm a talker and a bullshitter and I'd much 728 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:12,840 Speaker 1: rather be I'd much rather be doing that. That's probably 729 00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,840 Speaker 1: a detriment to my like solo hunting career, but probably 730 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 1: never get invite on solo hunter for that reason. But 731 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:24,239 Speaker 1: shut up. But I that just that stuff just me. 732 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 1: It's like a fucking high for me. Well, I love it. 733 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 1: I think Remy said it best, like he posted that 734 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 1: group shot today and in his caption you know of 735 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:40,399 Speaker 1: what of what? Yeah, those are perfect. Will we'll talk 736 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:42,200 Speaker 1: about El Choppo. We're gonna close the show with the 737 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:47,399 Speaker 1: l Choppo stories. But El Choppo has found what looks 738 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:51,520 Speaker 1: to be the tiniest binoculars ever and he's now he's 739 00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:53,880 Speaker 1: drinking champagne. It's like ten thirty in the a m. 740 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,839 Speaker 1: He's drinking the champagne. No, but what I was saying 741 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 1: is I think Remy said it said it right, was 742 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 1: you have a group of people who are you know 743 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:04,680 Speaker 1: some it's like some of the best hunters in the 744 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 1: industry and have made a name for themselves. And let 745 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:10,279 Speaker 1: me say, let me stop you there out like I 746 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 1: wanted you to do. When we say best hunters in industry, 747 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 1: I've been around a lot of them. You've been around 748 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 1: a lot of them. People that make their money on 749 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 1: saying I'm a good hunter, or make their money on 750 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:24,600 Speaker 1: being hunters or in the community. These are the best ones, 751 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 1: Like they are the best ones. We've seen it over 752 00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 1: the last couple of days. Yeah, it's it's amazing to 753 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:30,880 Speaker 1: watch them in the field and do what they do. 754 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:34,120 Speaker 1: It's it's Tiger Woods hitting golf ball, Remy Warren, Adam 755 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 1: green Tree, like John Dudley, that's Tiger Woods in the 756 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 1: golf ball. Like they do things produce results that just 757 00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:44,240 Speaker 1: people don't do. And so Cam in the same way. 758 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 1: Cam Haynes dropped the eighties six year bomb on the 759 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 1: buck last night. Mom still problem. He didn't probably Mom 760 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:54,440 Speaker 1: City like I did Loser, But I mean Remy, I 761 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 1: think Remy said it best when he, like all of us, 762 00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:01,480 Speaker 1: anybody involved, came from very different background, but we're all 763 00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:05,400 Speaker 1: together because we all love the act like hunting itself, 764 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:08,560 Speaker 1: and that's why we're all here. Yeah. No, And I 765 00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:12,120 Speaker 1: think that just goes back to it's hard to parse out, 766 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:15,440 Speaker 1: like the personality you see you on the internet. I 767 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 1: think that I'm glad why a lot of people have 768 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 1: podcasts nowadays, because you can just really hear them talk 769 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 1: and they have them in your ears and understand who 770 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 1: they are. Um. But being around somebody in those intense 771 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:34,240 Speaker 1: situations and it's it shows you really everybody bonds together 772 00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:38,359 Speaker 1: on the same types of feelings you kind of. I mean, 773 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 1: I'm from the East Coast. I'm I hunted as a 774 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 1: kid of a writer. I work at a cooler company 775 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 1: like you got you know, a legendary bow hunter from Oregon. 776 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 1: You have a fucking celebrity podcast actor, you know, commentator 777 00:44:56,480 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 1: from from Boston by way of California. Uh, I mean 778 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 1: you have a guy that lives in a busy You 779 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,440 Speaker 1: have a pro surfer. Yeah, I mean you have a 780 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 1: guy out a Nevada who is a hunting guide you have? 781 00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:15,880 Speaker 1: You know so much from Australia, who's you know, a 782 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,320 Speaker 1: couple of years ago, pretty foreign to the up to 783 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,000 Speaker 1: our community, you know, but now it's pretty pretty dialed 784 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:27,960 Speaker 1: in and close. So those things all come together and um, 785 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:29,560 Speaker 1: there's not a lot of ways. I mean, you could 786 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:31,040 Speaker 1: maybe if they were all in the room right now, 787 00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 1: but to capture the energy of that that evening that night. 788 00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:36,800 Speaker 1: Of course, everybody has got their phones out there in 789 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:40,279 Speaker 1: their stories. I think that might take away from it 790 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 1: a little bit, but that's everybody's jobs, and everybody just 791 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:45,360 Speaker 1: wants to share that energy with people and hopefully people 792 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:49,640 Speaker 1: who followed along on whatever who's ever social. We tried 793 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 1: to make sure everybody was updating, so it seemed as 794 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:56,880 Speaker 1: frantic as it actually was real time. But um, hopefully 795 00:45:56,920 --> 00:46:00,759 Speaker 1: you felt some of that energy, um, and some of 796 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:03,279 Speaker 1: the passion that these people have for for this thing 797 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:07,839 Speaker 1: and that regardless of success or failure or whatever, because 798 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:11,879 Speaker 1: those things are nebulous. They happen like you succeed, you fail, 799 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:14,719 Speaker 1: you succeeds, you fail, you sees you fail. And you know, 800 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:17,280 Speaker 1: guys like Remy and green Tree, you have found formulas 801 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:22,560 Speaker 1: whereas they succeed more than other people. But I think, um, 802 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 1: hopefully that stuff comes through. And I would say, just 803 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:31,320 Speaker 1: as a way of of addressing anyone who would qualify 804 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:36,400 Speaker 1: as a hater, that I'm I try. I would be 805 00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:39,400 Speaker 1: objective in this situation and then say that these are 806 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:41,920 Speaker 1: good people, like these are people that you know, whatever 807 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 1: you don't. You may not agree with what they might 808 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 1: post or what they might say, or a stance on 809 00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:48,600 Speaker 1: this or a way they present themselves on the internet, 810 00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,839 Speaker 1: like really getting to know these people. They're good, Yeah 811 00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 1: they're good. Yeah they're not all perfect, but they're not. 812 00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:57,960 Speaker 1: None of us are. So I will get off my soapbox. 813 00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 1: But I feel like that's I feel like in a 814 00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:04,160 Speaker 1: bunch of people, notable people get together like that. Sometimes 815 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:07,160 Speaker 1: it can seem, you know, on the surface, it seems 816 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:14,239 Speaker 1: a surface, but yeah, but being here and it's just 817 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:17,959 Speaker 1: a different feeling. I think, does any of that make sense? Same? 818 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:21,919 Speaker 1: I think in your ramp rambling, I think you got 819 00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:25,279 Speaker 1: the point across good. I was gonna pull a line 820 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:33,800 Speaker 1: from Billy Billy Madison. Nowhere, rambling, did you make any 821 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:37,200 Speaker 1: sense whatsoever? We are all now dumber because of it 822 00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:41,640 Speaker 1: may God you are awarded zero points. Oh, may God 823 00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:46,719 Speaker 1: have mercy on your soul. The anyway, Yeah, that I 824 00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:48,680 Speaker 1: don't know. I think that's I think that was important 825 00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:52,880 Speaker 1: to Yeah, And I think because it could seem like 826 00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:55,600 Speaker 1: it's a you know, some sort of a PR stunt 827 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 1: or whatever, but it's it was really just a group 828 00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:01,000 Speaker 1: of people that wanted to get together hunt together well, 829 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:02,680 Speaker 1: and you could do a lot of times people do 830 00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:06,759 Speaker 1: films and everybody on this trip out a podcast. All 831 00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:10,840 Speaker 1: of us that podcasts and all of us have those things. What. Um, 832 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,640 Speaker 1: what I was happy to do with something like this 833 00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:17,080 Speaker 1: is just see people throwing their stuff out to the 834 00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:20,239 Speaker 1: world as they wanted to, without having to have a 835 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:23,640 Speaker 1: cameraman behind them or force somebody to do a podcast 836 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:28,120 Speaker 1: or um. Because I think being together and being excited 837 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:32,920 Speaker 1: and comes out. Man, it just comes out and people naturally. Um. 838 00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,080 Speaker 1: So sorry for everybody that wanted there to be a film, 839 00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:38,080 Speaker 1: but I just don't. I feel like that's it's also 840 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:44,360 Speaker 1: edited and so contrived that if you followed along you 841 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:48,360 Speaker 1: got it. Hopefully you got it because it was pretty 842 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 1: It would be I mean it would it wouldn't be impossible, 843 00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 1: but it would be hard to pull off like a 844 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,800 Speaker 1: film like with without having a camera for each person, 845 00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,239 Speaker 1: and then it just it just changes the dynamic, it 846 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:03,360 Speaker 1: really does, and something like this. But that was the 847 00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:06,840 Speaker 1: I mean we ended up. You know, we had that dinner. 848 00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:12,400 Speaker 1: It was it was fantastic. And then the next and 849 00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 1: we got after it. I mean Cam killed a buck 850 00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:18,600 Speaker 1: last night, our boil Chopo killed a buck last night. 851 00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:23,600 Speaker 1: Everybody on the hunt killed one except for me. Uh, 852 00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:28,480 Speaker 1: Sammy killed one. Samy killed a giant thirty two insure 853 00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:33,399 Speaker 1: and the Sam flat in the Sam flash he kills 854 00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:36,040 Speaker 1: a buck there every year, just nonchalantly walks over there 855 00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:43,680 Speaker 1: and wax a giant and go um got a lot 856 00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:49,880 Speaker 1: of cool content and just laughed. All right, yeah, a 857 00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:52,640 Speaker 1: lot of it's not for air. Can't be for air. 858 00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:55,440 Speaker 1: But you know, and in a way of a recap, 859 00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:57,480 Speaker 1: that's what it was. I mean, it wasn't a deer count. 860 00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,600 Speaker 1: We never came back and like compared Antler side his work, 861 00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:02,520 Speaker 1: talked about who killed what it was, just like tell 862 00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:04,319 Speaker 1: me about your stock and tell me about this. I 863 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:07,280 Speaker 1: mean Cam and Joe or no, Cam and Joe, Um, 864 00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:10,359 Speaker 1: Joe and Dud had a deal the other night where 865 00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:12,919 Speaker 1: they were crawling up on a buck and they made 866 00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:15,879 Speaker 1: the final stock. And for some reason, Dudley had wanted 867 00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:19,120 Speaker 1: to shoot a deer that was having sex with another deer. 868 00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:22,120 Speaker 1: So I think that was actually green Tree that wanted tree. 869 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:26,080 Speaker 1: But Dudley has been in on two of those now, 870 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:31,640 Speaker 1: so you know, access to your spasmodic. They shed and 871 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 1: and and rut in different times of the year, so 872 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:39,680 Speaker 1: you'll see all forms of like gestation, like tiny little fawns, 873 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:47,000 Speaker 1: you know, six month old fawns, rutting, fighting, velvet stripping, 874 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:51,359 Speaker 1: all at the same time. And so Dudley had seen 875 00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:54,640 Speaker 1: a couple of bucks breeding. Does I don't think he 876 00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:57,120 Speaker 1: shot any of them that were No we got in 877 00:50:57,200 --> 00:51:00,200 Speaker 1: on him, but Joe and and he got on with 878 00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:03,719 Speaker 1: Joe yesterday they were finishing off the stock and a 879 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:09,000 Speaker 1: feral cat as this buck was breeding a dough. Feral 880 00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:14,560 Speaker 1: cat ran between the legs of the sex couple and 881 00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:18,360 Speaker 1: they lay ran away. They were thirty yards from a 882 00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:21,160 Speaker 1: buck that was mounted on a dough and a cat 883 00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:23,800 Speaker 1: messed up. I think, I mean, honestly, it was revenge 884 00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:26,040 Speaker 1: of the cat Lady. Yeah, the cat lady. Going back 885 00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:29,799 Speaker 1: to last year, John Dudley invented a drink is a 886 00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 1: terrible alcohol off. Let's we should probably have some sort 887 00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:37,120 Speaker 1: of intervention, but he's fun, so we let it happen. Ah. 888 00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:40,880 Speaker 1: He put you can have to walk with tequila, tequila, 889 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,640 Speaker 1: red wine, and red bull into a cup. Ye, and 890 00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:47,239 Speaker 1: then drank it and he named it the cat And 891 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:49,960 Speaker 1: he named it the Cat Lady, probably based on the 892 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:52,720 Speaker 1: fact that no one would ever talk to him again 893 00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:58,040 Speaker 1: after he drank it. Uh. That so that became people 894 00:51:58,120 --> 00:52:03,440 Speaker 1: started making those and linking up after last year, um 895 00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:07,400 Speaker 1: as well as Uh, Joe and Dudley got into a 896 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:12,160 Speaker 1: drunken fight about Wesley Walls the Fighter, whether or not 897 00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:17,319 Speaker 1: he had actually fought Tank Abbott. That's something. I mean, 898 00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:19,840 Speaker 1: it was like a half hour conversation. So then people 899 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:26,319 Speaker 1: started doing like Wesley Walls Instagram account strolling this ship 900 00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:29,919 Speaker 1: out of everybody, which was fantastic. Thanks for those guys 901 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:34,239 Speaker 1: who did that. Um, but we've had some We've had 902 00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:38,000 Speaker 1: some cool stuff happened on this trip. I mean everybody's 903 00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:41,839 Speaker 1: been in on countless stocks. Oh yeah, you know, seeing 904 00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:46,080 Speaker 1: countless deer. Yeah, it's just I mean, can you imagine. 905 00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:47,919 Speaker 1: So I was thinking about it while we were talking 906 00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:49,759 Speaker 1: about it. I mean, there's so many deer, and we 907 00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 1: shot a lot of deer this week, but could you 908 00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:55,000 Speaker 1: imagine if the population density was, you know, like a 909 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:58,640 Speaker 1: normal place trying to sneak in like if you know, like, okay, 910 00:52:58,680 --> 00:53:02,880 Speaker 1: there's thirty deer that live in that pat you know 911 00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:05,719 Speaker 1: that one big flat or whatever, like trying to do 912 00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:10,120 Speaker 1: like a single stock on a buck and then feel 913 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:14,640 Speaker 1: so terrible. Yeah, like the success rate would not be 914 00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:20,919 Speaker 1: even close. No yeah, no, um no, it wouldn't be. 915 00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:24,759 Speaker 1: And that's just what makes this different. You can go out. 916 00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:28,120 Speaker 1: Shane Dorian is pretty famous for being just like give 917 00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:29,840 Speaker 1: me a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, I'll see you 918 00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:33,760 Speaker 1: in three days, and he just crawls on his belly 919 00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:37,000 Speaker 1: until a deer is close enough. It takes eight hours, fine, 920 00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:40,760 Speaker 1: if it takes sixteen, no big problems there. And last year, Shane, 921 00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:44,279 Speaker 1: you know, it didn't kill anything for three days and 922 00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:46,120 Speaker 1: then he killed in the evening of the fourth day, 923 00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:48,960 Speaker 1: and then two on the last day. But it was 924 00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:52,800 Speaker 1: and then this year he just came out swinging, swinging, 925 00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:56,960 Speaker 1: just drop big bucks like it was his job. So yeah, 926 00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:59,880 Speaker 1: I mean I think those things, those things happen you know, 927 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:03,400 Speaker 1: people get I have good days, bad days and whatever. 928 00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:05,680 Speaker 1: But you know, the big part for me was trying 929 00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:08,439 Speaker 1: to realize, like some days I didn't even think about 930 00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:10,399 Speaker 1: the big picture where I was, who I was with. 931 00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:14,439 Speaker 1: It was logistics in the morning, it was stalking deer 932 00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:17,600 Speaker 1: all day. It was getting people picked up, it was 933 00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:20,200 Speaker 1: getting dinner for the evening, and then it was going 934 00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:22,040 Speaker 1: to sleep. And if you could make it through that 935 00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:27,319 Speaker 1: without without crashing, it was a good day. Maybe get 936 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:30,799 Speaker 1: a deer, whatever's fine. But there's moments where you have 937 00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:34,319 Speaker 1: to stop and be like, wait a minute, um, I 938 00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:38,080 Speaker 1: just what you know? You're in Hawaii? Yeah, I mean 939 00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 1: yesterday Ramy and I were tracking a buck that he 940 00:54:41,880 --> 00:54:45,719 Speaker 1: hit and killed, and him and I just kind of 941 00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:50,000 Speaker 1: paused a little bit, and there was we were by 942 00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:52,239 Speaker 1: the coast and could see out in the ocean. It 943 00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:54,359 Speaker 1: could see MAUI crossed the way and I just sat 944 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:57,200 Speaker 1: down on the hill and was looked out there like wow, Like, 945 00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:00,280 Speaker 1: if I waste the rest of this day, I paste. 946 00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:02,840 Speaker 1: But if I use the rest of this day to 947 00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:07,319 Speaker 1: think about killing deer, I've wasted some minutes of it. 948 00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:11,000 Speaker 1: Because what's really important. But then you think, you know, 949 00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:14,719 Speaker 1: what really makes you a successful hunter if you don't 950 00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:17,239 Speaker 1: give a shit about anything else but killing deer. Right, 951 00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:19,680 Speaker 1: that's probably why I've killed zero and Remmy killed five 952 00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:25,719 Speaker 1: and it's gone and left. So it just goes to 953 00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:27,920 Speaker 1: show you. I mean, there's a lot of people that 954 00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 1: claim to be really good at hunting or present themselves 955 00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:37,160 Speaker 1: in such a way, but um, no, no one that 956 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:41,319 Speaker 1: I know, very few that I know, could do what 957 00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:43,319 Speaker 1: Remy did, or do what Adam did, or do what 958 00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:46,480 Speaker 1: Shane did. Very few in a short period of time, 959 00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:50,319 Speaker 1: in a short period time, very few, Dudley camp same. 960 00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:53,520 Speaker 1: I mean, that's just let a bunch of savages loose 961 00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:59,560 Speaker 1: in giant heard deer. Let's see what happens, see what 962 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:03,239 Speaker 1: happened next. And that brings me to the story of 963 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:08,359 Speaker 1: El Chapo. Where do we begin? There's nowhere, Like there's 964 00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:10,600 Speaker 1: a lot of mystery. I don't even know where El 965 00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:15,440 Speaker 1: Chappo is from. I work with him, like he's from Houston, 966 00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:20,480 Speaker 1: maybe somewhere in the suburbs of Houston, north of Galveston, 967 00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:23,279 Speaker 1: south of fun who cares you know? And he's just 968 00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:29,760 Speaker 1: El Choppa. Now. El Chapo is a ripe old twenty 969 00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:36,280 Speaker 1: six years of age. Ah, he's a native Texan and 970 00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:40,840 Speaker 1: a bit. He's kind of like my consiliary. He's like 971 00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:45,719 Speaker 1: the Robert de vall to my godfather. Well's what was 972 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:51,080 Speaker 1: his character whatever, he's I'm Marlon Brando and he is 973 00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:56,960 Speaker 1: I'm actually not Marlon Brando, but he's definitely Robert Duval 974 00:56:58,280 --> 00:56:59,799 Speaker 1: and he takes care of lot. He just takes care 975 00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:02,080 Speaker 1: of ye and laughs at all the dumb ship that 976 00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:07,960 Speaker 1: I do in appropriate times. And um, before he worked 977 00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:11,080 Speaker 1: at Yetti, I don't know what he did, but he 978 00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:14,520 Speaker 1: may have, you know. I think he's saying he went 979 00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:16,720 Speaker 1: to college. I don't believe that. No. I think he 980 00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:19,520 Speaker 1: may have been like a drug runner on the coast 981 00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:22,480 Speaker 1: or something. He was running. He had owned. Yeah, he 982 00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:25,720 Speaker 1: was the top guy at some big ring of right 983 00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:30,000 Speaker 1: and then now we did he worked in shipping, shipping. Yes, 984 00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:35,080 Speaker 1: he flew a plane. He did tourism. Now, if you 985 00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:39,200 Speaker 1: look at the photo of all of us from this trip, 986 00:57:39,240 --> 00:57:42,440 Speaker 1: the one that Remy posted in a camp posted everybody posted, 987 00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:48,040 Speaker 1: there's one man there that you might not shrouded in mystery, 988 00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:52,360 Speaker 1: and it's El Choppo. That's El Chapo, and there's no 989 00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:54,240 Speaker 1: you don't need to hold know a whole lot of els. 990 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:56,720 Speaker 1: And the reason we call him El Choppo is as 991 00:57:56,800 --> 00:58:02,200 Speaker 1: mysterious as El Choppo himself because nobody knows. I mean, 992 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:05,240 Speaker 1: he looks like a young and he's got a ponytail. 993 00:58:06,280 --> 00:58:09,760 Speaker 1: He's got a flowing black mane of hair, kind of 994 00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:12,320 Speaker 1: like an Arabian horse or something like that. That's what 995 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:16,240 Speaker 1: it is. He's he's kind of got the hair like 996 00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:19,800 Speaker 1: who is the guy who played for the Steelers? Oh, 997 00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:22,560 Speaker 1: Troy Polama. He's kind of got a Troy polamla to 998 00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:27,720 Speaker 1: do and a beard, patchy beard, and uh, you know 999 00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:32,440 Speaker 1: he's a stout fellow. But he's there in the picture 1000 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:34,479 Speaker 1: and I think a lot of people were wondering who 1001 00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:41,520 Speaker 1: is this person and why? Yeah, and at that point 1002 00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:44,880 Speaker 1: of the group picture, he had not he had not killed. 1003 00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:49,280 Speaker 1: Now l Chopo's you know, it's a fair you know, 1004 00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:51,960 Speaker 1: he's got shipped together, like he knows what he's doing now. 1005 00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:54,480 Speaker 1: And he hunted a lot with me this week we 1006 00:58:54,520 --> 00:58:59,959 Speaker 1: had married failures. Ah, he was probably following me around 1007 00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:05,720 Speaker 1: going what the fuck he's this guy did? But finally, 1008 00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:08,440 Speaker 1: like a day and a half ago, we let El 1009 00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:12,320 Speaker 1: Choppo loose on his own to go Ferrell and just 1010 00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:15,520 Speaker 1: get it done. Like he just became part of the landscape. 1011 00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:21,480 Speaker 1: And now he's gone forever to the island of I 1012 00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:25,720 Speaker 1: thought maybe we'd never see him again, live under a 1013 00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:30,120 Speaker 1: lantana bush for the next three years. But two days 1014 00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:34,080 Speaker 1: ago El Choppo kind of started going on his own, 1015 00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:37,720 Speaker 1: stalking up deer and he would just be I don't 1016 00:59:37,720 --> 00:59:39,080 Speaker 1: know that El chop is a big fan of the 1017 00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:41,640 Speaker 1: belly crawl because it seems like it's a lot of work. 1018 00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:45,880 Speaker 1: She's more of a crouchwalker, you know. That led to 1019 00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:49,160 Speaker 1: a lot of spookings, I believe, but eventually a lot 1020 00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:52,240 Speaker 1: of yeah, a lot of that, not a lot of roars, 1021 00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:55,560 Speaker 1: a lot of spooks. But eventually he got it, got 1022 00:59:55,600 --> 00:59:59,040 Speaker 1: on it, and yesterday we were leaving for the evening hunt. 1023 00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:02,080 Speaker 1: Sam and I were going to hunt together, whereas I 1024 01:00:02,120 --> 01:00:03,720 Speaker 1: would shoot at all the dose and they would duck 1025 01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:11,080 Speaker 1: the arrows. But El Chapo was going by himself and 1026 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:17,080 Speaker 1: he had perfected He had his system die. He had 1027 01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:21,919 Speaker 1: perfected the El Chopo dear killing system, which goes something 1028 01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 1: like this.

You know how 1056 01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:13,160 Speaker 1: you've been hunting for five days and not killed something, 1057 01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:16,439 Speaker 1: and you give zero fox now and we'll just reach 1058 01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:18,440 Speaker 1: that point the best of us. We got out there. 1059 01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:20,400 Speaker 1: He's like, I don't have my phone. I'll see you 1060 01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:28,800 Speaker 1: at the road and just disappeared, just just disappearing tanical garden. 1061 01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:32,920 Speaker 1: It's never to be seen. And then we tried to 1062 01:02:32,960 --> 01:02:35,840 Speaker 1: find him on the road. We went hunting and failed. 1063 01:02:36,040 --> 01:02:38,760 Speaker 1: I failed, and uh I went back to find him 1064 01:02:38,760 --> 01:02:40,720 Speaker 1: on the road and he was gone. He was not there, 1065 01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:42,760 Speaker 1: and we were a bit worried. We thought maybe he 1066 01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:50,320 Speaker 1: had ah taken up the herd, gone north. But then 1067 01:02:50,360 --> 01:02:52,440 Speaker 1: we got a text from someone else's phone, from John 1068 01:02:52,520 --> 01:02:54,959 Speaker 1: Dudley's phone and said, hey, it's Will I killed a buck. 1069 01:02:56,920 --> 01:03:00,320 Speaker 1: I am I'm with the guys. And then we knew 1070 01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:05,760 Speaker 1: that El Chapos rain had begun and he shoots this 1071 01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:10,760 Speaker 1: buck at like thirty yards and that was five days 1072 01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:14,120 Speaker 1: of effort all culminated. And that wasn't the end of it. 1073 01:03:14,400 --> 01:03:18,560 Speaker 1: He then shoulder slings it. So let's talk about what 1074 01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:21,760 Speaker 1: was it? Called it duffle button. Duffle button yeah aa, 1075 01:03:21,840 --> 01:03:24,320 Speaker 1: green Tree lots to do something called duffle button. Yeah. 1076 01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:27,480 Speaker 1: So you cut the hole in the back legs where 1077 01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:29,640 Speaker 1: you would hang it, and then in the front legs 1078 01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:32,000 Speaker 1: you cut him at the joint and then you peel 1079 01:03:32,040 --> 01:03:33,920 Speaker 1: the tendin back a little bit, and then you can 1080 01:03:33,960 --> 01:03:36,720 Speaker 1: slide part of the front leg through the hole in 1081 01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:40,560 Speaker 1: the back leg and now you've got a basically put 1082 01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:43,720 Speaker 1: it on like a backpack. So I had explained this 1083 01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:46,800 Speaker 1: very briefly, not in depth at all, to El Choppo 1084 01:03:46,880 --> 01:03:49,720 Speaker 1: in the morning after green Tree had done it, and 1085 01:03:49,760 --> 01:03:52,640 Speaker 1: the chop was he was intrigued, ye, and he decided 1086 01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:55,000 Speaker 1: to try it. It did not go well. It ended 1087 01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:57,160 Speaker 1: up he just threw the deer over his shoulder and 1088 01:03:57,200 --> 01:04:00,400 Speaker 1: walked like a mile in his white sox just to 1089 01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:04,360 Speaker 1: the road. Can you imagine he got there and Alec, 1090 01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:07,040 Speaker 1: the guy goes, why didn't you just leave it there? 1091 01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:10,880 Speaker 1: I could have driven to it, and his Fannie, his 1092 01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:15,840 Speaker 1: yetty sidekick Fanny Pack was covered in blood, just covered. Yeah, 1093 01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:18,880 Speaker 1: he was just I mean, can you imagine that. It 1094 01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:22,240 Speaker 1: was like a scene from like black Hawk Down or something. 1095 01:04:22,240 --> 01:04:27,040 Speaker 1: He was carrying out one of his comrades but apparently 1096 01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:29,400 Speaker 1: shots his deer three yards and just dropped in his tracks. 1097 01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:32,080 Speaker 1: Probably because it's all his thick look in his eyes. 1098 01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:36,440 Speaker 1: I just can't go any further. Oh that's perfect. But 1099 01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:38,440 Speaker 1: that's you know, that's all chopo for you. I mean 1100 01:04:38,480 --> 01:04:42,240 Speaker 1: he's he's an animal, yep, animal, And I mean he 1101 01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:46,080 Speaker 1: has a lady friend and so unfortunately unfortunately's not single. 1102 01:04:47,200 --> 01:04:50,080 Speaker 1: But if he was, hopefully this would rev the engine 1103 01:04:50,120 --> 01:04:54,120 Speaker 1: on that.

And if anybody's ever seen Jurassic Park, there's 1148 01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:49,360 Speaker 1: a scene where the like the the British professional hunter 1149 01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:54,320 Speaker 1: gets killed by the raptors, and when the female raptor 1150 01:07:54,360 --> 01:07:57,400 Speaker 1: pops up to just take him out, he goes clever Girl. 1151 01:07:59,240 --> 01:08:01,840 Speaker 1: And when that hunts popped up in my head, I 1152 01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:07,000 Speaker 1: just put clever Girl and the hunt was over there 1153 01:08:09,360 --> 01:08:12,320 Speaker 1: and they all ran. And so I've had a mirriad 1154 01:08:12,560 --> 01:08:16,120 Speaker 1: the other day with Remy. Yesterday with Remy in the morning, 1155 01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:20,280 Speaker 1: I was like through ten ft from a bedded deer 1156 01:08:20,920 --> 01:08:22,559 Speaker 1: and I went to draw and tried to get him 1157 01:08:22,560 --> 01:08:25,960 Speaker 1: to stand up, and not only did he not stand up, 1158 01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:27,960 Speaker 1: he crawled. I saw where he did it. He crawled 1159 01:08:28,040 --> 01:08:30,840 Speaker 1: under the bush and put his antlers in the bush 1160 01:08:30,880 --> 01:08:34,559 Speaker 1: and then wrapped around the bush and laid there while 1161 01:08:34,560 --> 01:08:37,840 Speaker 1: I was ten feet away, just holding tight hold. I 1162 01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:40,880 Speaker 1: was making turkey gobbles I was doing, and he just 1163 01:08:40,960 --> 01:08:43,679 Speaker 1: held tight and then he waited and waited and burst 1164 01:08:43,680 --> 01:08:47,559 Speaker 1: out of there like a canon, and he was gone, Yeah, 1165 01:08:47,600 --> 01:08:50,120 Speaker 1: it's not a it's not an easy species to go after, 1166 01:08:50,600 --> 01:08:53,599 Speaker 1: which just denotes the level of skill that we've got 1167 01:08:53,760 --> 01:08:58,040 Speaker 1: hanging around here at some level. What else do you 1168 01:08:58,040 --> 01:08:59,840 Speaker 1: want to say about this hunt, Sam, I feel like 1169 01:09:00,040 --> 01:09:03,519 Speaker 1: coming to the tail end of our I mean, there's 1170 01:09:03,560 --> 01:09:05,519 Speaker 1: not much more to say. I mean, it's just last 1171 01:09:05,600 --> 01:09:08,439 Speaker 1: year was a blast, and you never know, like how 1172 01:09:08,560 --> 01:09:10,479 Speaker 1: round two is gonna go, Like it could either be 1173 01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:14,200 Speaker 1: way better or it could be you know, like last 1174 01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:15,640 Speaker 1: you know, like yeah, last year was all new and 1175 01:09:15,680 --> 01:09:17,720 Speaker 1: fun and exciting, and so it was all this, you know, 1176 01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:19,200 Speaker 1: and then you hype it up too much in your 1177 01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:21,120 Speaker 1: mind and then it turns out like it's not like 1178 01:09:21,160 --> 01:09:23,439 Speaker 1: that again. But it was way better this year, but 1179 01:09:23,600 --> 01:09:26,040 Speaker 1: it was last year even way better, way more fun, 1180 01:09:26,120 --> 01:09:31,880 Speaker 1: way more laughed, way more dear kill. Unbelievable, unbelievable. Yeah, man, yeah, 1181 01:09:31,920 --> 01:09:34,599 Speaker 1: it's it was. It was great. Yeah, it was great. 1182 01:09:35,880 --> 01:09:39,479 Speaker 1: Hopefully you know, the hunting community. I think a lot 1183 01:09:39,479 --> 01:09:44,200 Speaker 1: of people followed along and have, you know, put some 1184 01:09:44,240 --> 01:09:46,680 Speaker 1: attention on our our efforts here this week. And I 1185 01:09:46,720 --> 01:09:50,840 Speaker 1: think what's important is that there's a bunch of people 1186 01:09:50,840 --> 01:09:54,080 Speaker 1: who are trying to represent everyone you know, and have 1187 01:09:54,120 --> 01:09:56,360 Speaker 1: been given a platform to do that. I think that's 1188 01:09:56,400 --> 01:10:01,320 Speaker 1: what's important to me, is that there's ree things. It's 1189 01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:04,599 Speaker 1: the platform, it's the people, and it's the message. Those 1190 01:10:04,640 --> 01:10:08,679 Speaker 1: are the things that are important to me. And reason 1191 01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:12,920 Speaker 1: why we put these hunts together is for that reason, 1192 01:10:13,040 --> 01:10:17,759 Speaker 1: because it elevates not only the message, but the people. 1193 01:10:18,880 --> 01:10:22,120 Speaker 1: And they already have the platform, which is social media 1194 01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:26,719 Speaker 1: or whatever. So I think that's what's important and hopefully 1195 01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:30,080 Speaker 1: um everyone can think about that they're hunting lives. Man. 1196 01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:32,680 Speaker 1: It's like, think about the people you hunt with, like 1197 01:10:32,720 --> 01:10:34,960 Speaker 1: are they making you better? Are they challenging you to 1198 01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:36,960 Speaker 1: be better? Are they challenging you to do things in 1199 01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:43,360 Speaker 1: a different way or or pushing you to be good? Thoughtful? 1200 01:10:44,120 --> 01:10:46,800 Speaker 1: And you know, like, what's your message to everyone else? 1201 01:10:47,800 --> 01:10:49,720 Speaker 1: If you choose to talk to everyone, you don't have to. 1202 01:10:50,240 --> 01:10:52,040 Speaker 1: You can go hunt and never say a word about it. 1203 01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:55,519 Speaker 1: But and then what plat what's the platform that you 1204 01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:57,639 Speaker 1: want to tell that story? And if you can think 1205 01:10:57,640 --> 01:11:00,760 Speaker 1: in those three ways and nothing, you're doing it right. 1206 01:11:00,880 --> 01:11:03,160 Speaker 1: And I think all the people that we find it 1207 01:11:03,200 --> 01:11:06,160 Speaker 1: with this week have figured that ship out in spades 1208 01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:10,880 Speaker 1: and we're all better for it. I would agree with that, agreed. 1209 01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:15,960 Speaker 1: Yea perfect look up el Chopo. I want you to 1210 01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:19,160 Speaker 1: all follow him. Everybody needs to follow him. He doesn't 1211 01:11:19,160 --> 01:11:22,760 Speaker 1: have a very exciting Instagram. Maybe this triple this will help. 1212 01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:27,680 Speaker 1: But it's mystery, Like the only the only because he 1213 01:11:27,720 --> 01:11:29,360 Speaker 1: didn't have his phone when he shot his deer. The 1214 01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:31,599 Speaker 1: only photo that he has is a screenshot that I 1215 01:11:31,640 --> 01:11:34,920 Speaker 1: took of his deer hanging in Bob the Butcher's shop. Yeah, 1216 01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:38,719 Speaker 1: not only like it adds to the level of mystery. Yeah, 1217 01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:41,880 Speaker 1: did he shoot a dear? It doesn't matter, there's no 1218 01:11:41,920 --> 01:11:44,920 Speaker 1: way to know I mean his Fannie packs covered in blood. 1219 01:11:45,240 --> 01:11:47,559 Speaker 1: That's good evidence. Do we need to give out his 1220 01:11:47,560 --> 01:11:49,679 Speaker 1: his handle? Yeah, we should do it. So it's at 1221 01:11:50,080 --> 01:11:54,400 Speaker 1: will Owe and nine two. His real name his El Choppo, 1222 01:11:54,479 --> 01:11:56,840 Speaker 1: but his fake stage name is will Owe, his pen 1223 01:11:56,960 --> 01:11:59,040 Speaker 1: name if you will. He was born in the year 1224 01:11:59,160 --> 01:12:05,040 Speaker 1: nineteen ninety two, which it makes me young man, a 1225 01:12:05,040 --> 01:12:06,800 Speaker 1: lot of room to a lot of room to grow. 1226 01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:09,640 Speaker 1: But forever will we'll be able to say he was 1227 01:12:09,680 --> 01:12:16,680 Speaker 1: the star of Lanai Part two.
