Oh yeah, oh yeah, plenty of 102 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: people in Eastern Oregon. Do you you know what the 103 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: question I can't want to ask each I didn't know 104 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: the answer to it is um Are you you know 105 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 1: how um trigger noses has been eliminated from? I mean, 106 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: you know, for all intensive purposes has been eliminated from 107 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: uh closed system pork? Are you how how cocky are 108 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: you about eating harlander hogs rare? Yeah? We eat them 109 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: probably medium rare. I'm pretty confident in that. Yeah. So 110 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 1: you don't feel that they've been eating all kind of 111 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,359 Speaker 1: bear meat and rats, No, because they're they're been a 112 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: control of environment still, you know, they're pastures, but that 113 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: pastures clean for sure. And then they're getting that um 114 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: grain in the form of barley. Um. So's the stuff 115 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: that they're eating is is uh basically pasture grays like coggs, 116 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 1: and and then uh a little bit of barley. And 117 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 1: that's the barley that comes from making beer, right, Yeah, 118 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 1: same barley, but it's different. It's two roll barley, which 119 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: that's what they're making the beer. Um. And then there's 120 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,359 Speaker 1: like different kinds of barley that's made for animal feed 121 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: and other kinds of things. To have I been lying 122 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 1: when I've been telling people that you were getting some 123 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: kind of byproduct of beer production. Yeah, that's true. I 124 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 1: wasn't lying. Yeah, yeah, and that's that's actually a nice filler. 125 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 1: And uh, it's good grain too, but it is a 126 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: different kind of barley between beer and stuff that they're 127 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: putting back into into feed. In my first book, I 128 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: wrote about a guy that um an old neighbor mine 129 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: in Miles City, Montana that used to fat and hogs 130 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: on horse meat. Yeah, And he said that they would 131 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: take the horses into the hog pen and shoot him, 132 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: and then he would do all the skinning cuts on 133 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: the horse and tie it, said, to a post, and 134 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: pull the hide with a tractor because you could sell 135 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: the hides for three or four bucks. And then he said, 136 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: a couple of days later, you need to go in 137 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: there and throw all the bones out of there, because 138 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: the hogs started to crush those bones and the gag 139 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: on the bone shards. And he said he never wanted 140 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: to send them to market with a belly fan the 141 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: belly full of horse flesh. Yeah, So he said he 142 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: would finish him on barley because he's always scared of 143 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: what they'd think if they opened them up and they 144 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: had meeting him and he said that their condition would 145 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: deteriorate on barley. He said their tail would lose. Some 146 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: of them had a real nice tight corkscrew, and he 147 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: said that corkscrew would start to loosen. And he said 148 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: the luster on their fur would start to fade when 149 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: you put him on barley. And that's how he knew though, 150 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: that was time to time to take him to market. 151 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: And this guy too would. He was telling me they 152 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: used to raise in the thirties. They would raise turkeys 153 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: and they would send they would raise turkeys for Thanksgiving 154 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: and all their turkeys would go to Minneapolis, and to 155 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: keep the turkeys from rotten, they'd send him in barrels. 156 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,319 Speaker 1: And you didn't want to make any gutting cuts on 157 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,599 Speaker 1: the turkey because you just it allows back to you 158 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: to get in there. They would before it came time 159 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: to slaughter them, they would stop feeding the turkeys for 160 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 1: a couple of days and just give them water because 161 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,679 Speaker 1: they wanted their whole digestive system to flush. And then 162 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 1: you could kill him, pluck him and put him in 163 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: barrels and they wouldn't rock because no one had opened 164 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: up the gutting cavity.

Um, my dad, you know 260 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: he I taught those four too, but he never His 261 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: distaste for the Germans never waned after fighting World War Two, 262 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: and um, he would when demonstrating how why he disliked 263 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: Germans so much. He learned how to say I love 264 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: you in a bunch of different languages and uh, and 265 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: he'd say it and you'd always put like a little 266 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 1: regional flare on all the different languages how you say 267 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: I love you. Then you'd get to to prove his 268 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: point about Germans, he would get to how they like 269 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 1: to say it, which is he'd be like alb, he goes, 270 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: even I love you sounds horrible.

So 273 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 1: a file so a file stora is a thing called 274 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 1: the arrow stork. This is like I was throwing there 275 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 1: real quick. I think that the h on the end. 276 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: I haven't even looked at it. Him guessing there's h 277 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: on the end. I'm guessing it's gonna be a sound 278 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 1: file store. Yeah, okay, that's good because it translates to 279 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: arrow stork. And my brother sent us to me. I'm like, 280 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: that can't be true. But then we had a big 281 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: back and forth and he proved out the veracity of it. 282 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: There's a thing called an arrow stork, and it's a 283 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: name given. It's a name in Germany given to storks 284 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: that were injured by arrows in Africa. And when before 285 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: people understood migrations, there was all these theories about where 286 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 1: this species of stork went m and people had ideas 287 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: that it went and lived in the water that went 288 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: to the bottom of the ocean. Where where it went. 289 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: But over the years, twenty five of these storks were 290 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: found alive carrying arrows from African hunters. Wow. And there's 291 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: a picture on Wikipedia which is doing a very aggressive 292 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: fundraiser right now p F p F E I L 293 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: S T O R c H. And you'll see a, uh, 294 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: it's sitting, the specimen is sitting. It was found in 295 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 1: and it's mounted somewhere that got it on explay. But 296 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: it's sitting there and it's like a it's mounted, but 297 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: it's a bird carrying around this crazy arrow stuck in 298 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 1: his neck. And over the years twenty five of these 299 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: turned up and it started to help explain migrations. Isn't 300 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:20,360 Speaker 1: it wild enough of them to have their own name? There? 301 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 1: It is right there? You did you to know, Oh 302 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:32,159 Speaker 1: it's a Central Africa? Yeah, wow, twenty five of them 303 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,159 Speaker 1: and that one you can tell the dude was the 304 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 1: dude was shooting at it flying overhead because the arrow 305 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 1: like enters, you know, kind of like enters. It's basically 306 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 1: enters its throat and emerges, you know what kind of 307 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 1: blow its chin or at the base of its head. 308 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: But you're assuming that the taxidermists put it back together 309 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 1: the exact Well, no, I'm not assuming that. In fact, 310 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: you know, I don't think that that bird was standing 311 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: on the ground when I got an arrow like that. 312 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, feeding, I'm just saying that the arrow could 313 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: be upside down when it was you know, from the 314 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:15,880 Speaker 1: way it was found, we don't know put it in there, 315 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: took the arrow out, forgot how it was in there, 316 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: and put it back in the wrong way. What year 317 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 1: do you think this happened? Okay, okay, So the bird 318 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: was found or killed somehow and it had this arrow 319 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 1: in it, then it had to travel and make it 320 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 1: to a taxidermist. Right he wasn't the guy. That happened 321 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 1: just happened. Me standing there and the thing falls out 322 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: of the sky and he's like, oh my god, look 323 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 1: at this. Right. So I'm just saying that some things 324 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: could have happened in travel transport where he got this thing. 325 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,119 Speaker 1: And they're like, yeah, we found this bird had an 326 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: arrow stuck in its neck. Can you taxidermy it for us? 327 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,200 Speaker 1: So you think that the archer was in a hot 328 00:18:56,240 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: air balloon and shot it like the angle could you know, 329 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: could have been different. I agree with you that the 330 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: bird could have been with his neck down eating. I 331 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: mean it would have been. It'd be nice if we 332 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: could have seen all and see where all those arrows 333 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 1: were in those birds. Would be interesting. See when we retire, 334 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,399 Speaker 1: maybe we make that. You know, Larry Todd had that 335 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: whole retirement, the thing you did up in the mountains. 336 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 1: The anthropologist. Yes, yeah, well maybe this will be like 337 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: when we retire, we'll pick this up. The file stork, 338 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 1: the file storre um. Another quick thing, bro, do you 339 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: go with your quick thing? Oh? I know, I'll hit 340 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 1: another one real quick. They just found to this is 341 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 1: some creepy This is great. In Ecuador, they unearthed two 342 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 1: infants that were buried more than two thousand years ago, 343 00:19:54,720 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 1: wearing helmets made from the skulls of older children. Oh 344 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: and the way the bones were held together. They feeled 345 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 1: it this flesh that the skin and flesh on the 346 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: older children's head was still intact when they made the 347 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: helmets for the young kids. That's some Cormette McCarthy ship 348 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 1: right there. Oh, Yeah, that's so far up my alley, 349 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 1: I can feel it tickling my tonsils. Any conclusion to 350 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: why they did that, Like, no one. Nothing I read 351 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,199 Speaker 1: was taking a stab at it. And like we we 352 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 1: always joke, like everything in anthropology, you see something weird, 353 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,199 Speaker 1: like most been ceremonials, but on this I would be like, 354 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: that has to have been some Yeah, yeah, that's very bizarre. Dude, 355 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:49,719 Speaker 1: that's hardcore. Unless the kids were skateboarders. They're very near 356 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 1: a half pipe. Uh you go, Brodie, you want me 357 00:20:55,960 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 1: to talk about the Yeah, yeah, the asshole.

A seven hundred pound bear cut its 365 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 1: head off, didn't take all the meat like this guy 366 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: put the paws off.

So he's like obviously posing himself 369 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,920 Speaker 1: as a hunter. He wants people to think he's a hunter, 370 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 1: but he's got a long list I mean dudes like 371 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:54,679 Speaker 1: a career poacher. Yeah, career poacher and career criminal outside 372 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: of poaching. Um, so how is he allowed to I mean, 373 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 1: that's that's the stird like he got in trouble. Is 374 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: a felon because he's bow hunt not at all, I 375 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 1: mean hardly but quiet. He's a felon. So one time 376 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: he got introlled for having a gun because he's not 377 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:13,400 Speaker 1: supposed to have a gun. And then he gets caught 378 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 1: with a gun and it's his girlfriends ex boyfriend's gun. 379 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,360 Speaker 1: And that's kind of the most interesting character to emerge 380 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 1: out of this article. The girlfriend's ex boyfriends. Yeah, that's like, yeah, 381 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 1: I'll tell about why I think he's the most interesting 382 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 1: character to emerge out of the article is like I 383 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 1: can see if you had a you and your girlfriend 384 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 1: breakup that like whatever, you left some books, some underwear? 385 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 1: How over there? You leave your six over there and 386 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:47,200 Speaker 1: never go get it. Maybe she wouldn't let him come 387 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: get it. Maybe she's took it from him. Why was 388 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:53,120 Speaker 1: it that her house? Who knows you got a thing 389 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: that the people, these characters that we're talking about, right, 390 00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 1: like the circles that they run in that uh they 391 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: got maybe he just forgot all about his thirty at 392 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:14,200 Speaker 1: six Like that could be as plausible as anything. Yeah. Yeah, 393 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,239 Speaker 1: So go on about this guy, well, I mean, like 394 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: we said, he's just done everything wrong. And uh, the 395 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,919 Speaker 1: thing that strikes me about this kind of article when 396 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: they pop up as you always see it like Hunter, 397 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: Like they they call the guy a hunter, and they 398 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: shouldn't be calling the guy hunter, right, It's they should 399 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 1: be calling him a criminal or a poacher. Yeah whatever. Yeah, 400 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 1: that's the thing I don't look about is be like 401 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 1: Hunter and be like oh, those hunters. But then you 402 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 1: look like who did the enforcement on the investigation and 403 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 1: get in trouble. He's getting in trouble, like he's in 404 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 1: violation of game laws. Yeah, a couple federal the federal charges. 405 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: I don't think we're even involved with the the actual 406 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,360 Speaker 1: hunting part of it. That'll be taken care of later. Um, 407 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 1: what did he get charged with? Yeah, okay, he transported 408 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: wildlife and violation of tribal law and he trespassed on 409 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 1: Indian land hunt. So those are the federal charges. State 410 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: charges will come later. It's amazing the way people a 411 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 1: lot so many poachers, um can't they still have to 412 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 1: go on to social media. They can't help themselves. It's 413 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 1: like the whole thing is Yeah, I agree. I feel 414 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:30,640 Speaker 1: like it's part of the intention or the motivation down 415 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 1: in Kentucky, Like why all of this right, because they 416 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:38,160 Speaker 1: were talking about like rings and families of you know, poachers, 417 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,879 Speaker 1: poacher gangs, and it's like so I'm thinking, like, well, 418 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 1: there must be like money involved, right, that's why you 419 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: would do all this and risk getting in trouble and 420 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 1: lose you're hunting rights because like in the end you're 421 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:53,400 Speaker 1: selling a trophy head fort. No, it's pure back bragging rights. Yeah, 422 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 1: but you'd think words would have gotten out by now 423 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 1: that that's how you're going to get caught, you know, 424 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: like like that's just comes yeah anyway, again, the types 425 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 1: of people that we're talking about here, Yeah, no, I know. 426 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,199 Speaker 1: But so how do you resolve that situation? Somebody who 427 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 1: has a track record like that, who continues to have 428 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: the same thing happened over and over and over again, 429 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 1: how do you resolve that? I would say, punish him harder, 430 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: because you know, a lot of these these people just 431 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,160 Speaker 1: aren't getting the book thrown out right. I'd send him 432 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 1: out to Harlander Hoggs slop and slop some some hogs 433 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:40,679 Speaker 1: stables for a while, work every time. Yeah, I got it. 434 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: I was at a game warden conference one time and 435 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,879 Speaker 1: I was talking to a warden who was there to 436 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:54,439 Speaker 1: present on He was there to present on a theory 437 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: he had about what he was calling like super violators 438 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 1: where he feels that scent of poaching UM is being 439 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,439 Speaker 1: done by ten percent of poachers. And he had a 440 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 1: he had this he was presenting this kind of like 441 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 1: composite view of this composite view of UM, the most 442 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: rampant poachers and they're there, you know, obviously like it's 443 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: like white males, I can't remember the age bracket, kind 444 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,359 Speaker 1: of like what their worldview is, what their political view is. 445 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,879 Speaker 1: And he feels and he was talking about that there's 446 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: sociopathy and sociopathy and people who are like particularly sociopathic 447 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 1: UM it manifests in certain ways. And he was saying 448 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,439 Speaker 1: with the super poachers that they don't brag about it. 449 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 1: These are guys where you catch them and then you 450 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,160 Speaker 1: go to their house and they have like a pole 451 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 1: barn that has you know, eight dear acts laying in 452 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 1: in disarray, and it's this kind of like in the 453 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: way he described I'm just like, they're sticking it to 454 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 1: the They're they're sticking it to the man, They're sticking 455 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 1: it to society. These are things that people value. I 456 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 1: have all them. And I'm sure there's a part of 457 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 1: it that's especially with an instance like that where they're 458 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 1: doing it in a repeated manner and not getting caught. 459 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 1: That's got to play into the obsession in some way. Yeah, 460 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 1: that he was saying that. His argument was that if 461 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,400 Speaker 1: you really to be really impactful on poaching, it would 462 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,199 Speaker 1: be working hard to identify these and he talked He 463 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: talked about like these areas where you have the same 464 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,639 Speaker 1: way you hear like people figuring out there's a serial killer, 465 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 1: where you have these clusters of crimes that seems similar, 466 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:40,640 Speaker 1: and then at some point someone will look and be like, 467 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 1: why are there six unsolved murders kind of around particular 468 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 1: train station over the course of ten years, and they're 469 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 1: all have a thing. And so what he was working 470 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: I was looking at these places where there is like 471 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,880 Speaker 1: this area where for twenty years there's like headless deer 472 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: and ditches, you know, and then and then realizing that 473 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: thing starts to make sense. The heads are all cut 474 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: off the same way. Right, It's typically happening around whatever 475 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 1: circumstances and that, and like I said, he was there, 476 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 1: he was presenting this whole deals interesting, really interesting. Uh, 477 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:19,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say. My other thing has to do with 478 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: the guy cutting his finger off and then keeping it 479 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 1: in the jar a room. Could I save that now? 480 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 1: Kind of just told it didn't. The guy rode in 481 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: and his body they're messing around the airplanes landing gear 482 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: and his and his finger come off. How he just 483 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 1: got caught off by the landing gear. Um, and he 484 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 1: keeps it in rum and now and then people come over, 485 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 1: they'll get the drinking and they'll like to have a 486 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 1: little shot of rum out of that jar. Do they 487 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: know that they're having or? He says sometimes they're unsuspecting. Um. 488 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 1: Did he say which anger? Uh? No, he just says 489 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: a finger says there's a violent mishap with airplane landing gear. 490 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: He wanted to get it reattached. They couldn't do it. 491 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,959 Speaker 1: He says. The moral of the story is, Um, if 492 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: you lose your finger, hang onto it. They made great 493 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 1: conversation starters. Makes a nice cocktail. Cocktail, Okay, okay, I'm 494 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 1: talking so people. A lot of times, people right in 495 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 1: they want hot hunting tips, the hottes hunting tips to 496 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: work here, right because you guys all got a job here, 497 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: and everybody's that's what everybody comments on social media. It's 498 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 1: already a demand and the larger army eat our community. 499 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: You guys got your first gear, and didn't Maggie, Maggie, 500 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 1: you and Tracy got your first year the same night. 501 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 1: I think so, which I think is still ironic considering 502 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: we went on our first turkey hunt together and then 503 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: what day? So I want to go and order who 504 00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 1: got their dear first? Sam, did you get yours first? No? 505 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: I got my? No? Third? Yeah, because I got mine 506 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 1: the tuesday after they got theirs. I think that Maggie 507 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 1: got hers earlier in the day. She did. Yeah, that's correct, 508 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 1: because we had already gotten the photo of Maggie's and 509 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 1: Steve's response was, will let me send back a picture 510 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: of yours? Don't want? Did not like the idea of that. 511 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 1: Perhaps the thought could be that we were on success. 512 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: I didn't even know Joe was doing this. Joe was 513 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: more excited about sharing the he was just sending it 514 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 1: to everybody. I talked with Joe about this last night 515 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 1: and he um, he expressed it that he was wondering, 516 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 1: what was you know, like when someone's not shooting. Yes, 517 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 1: he kept he was like he's telling the story. Was 518 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 1: kind of like where he was wondering, like, what's the 519 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:56,479 Speaker 1: what exactly is the problem? You want me to go 520 00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 1: into that? Yeah? I mean first retouched, we talked about 521 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: the turkey, but it gives people a quick crash course 522 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 1: and you're like, how you became interested in getting a deer? Um, well, 523 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 1: obviously not getting a turkey.

Now I 621 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: feel like we should teach Maggie how to um tell 622 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 1: a story. I'm trying to take a I mean not 623 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 1: that I like how you're doing it, but I'm trying 624 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 1: to think out how, like what would have that conversations 625 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,640 Speaker 1: you got her?

I just want it was you know, your 628 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,920 Speaker 1: first time doing that. I told Joe like from the 629 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,279 Speaker 1: very beginning, like, I think there's a lot of things 630 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,799 Speaker 1: you can't control going into hunt. I've learned that from 631 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 1: the Turkey situation, but from your experience and then my 632 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:12,239 Speaker 1: personal experience, and there's little you can control. But communication 633 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,000 Speaker 1: was one thing that Joe was like, this is something 634 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,480 Speaker 1: that we can't control and have dialed and that made 635 00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,359 Speaker 1: me feel very comfortable. We were like, I don't know, 636 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,919 Speaker 1: like we talked a lot about like my feelings going 637 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 1: into it and like wanting to be an ethical with 638 00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 1: how I went about things. And I don't know, it 639 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 1: was just very open dialogue and that made me feel 640 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 1: very comfortable going into the situation. I think that's a 641 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 1: really interesting and good point. And also I think you 642 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 1: guys had good dialogue at every step, every step turning 643 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:41,840 Speaker 1: around and being like are you comfortable right now? Is 644 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 1: this okay? Like you know? And I was like, yeah, 645 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 1: it sounds a little different than use the word communication. 646 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 1: Not necessarily now I'm using that word, but like, can 647 00:37:55,280 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 1: you talk about your communication? Don't listen, let's say, let's 648 00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 1: sell was getting myself into time, But to me that 649 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 1: was important. I don't know how that opened dialect. I 650 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 1: don't know. Joe. Joe wasn't like you guys are camped out, Yeah, 651 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 1: and when you went up to to find what were 652 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,919 Speaker 1: you doing when you when you found the deer? What 653 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 1: was I doing? What do you mean? How did I 654 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:26,839 Speaker 1: react when I go ahead? Like when you first spotted Yeah, 655 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 1: like what was going on? Like you guys just walking 656 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,480 Speaker 1: and someone look at that. We were just walking And 657 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,719 Speaker 1: Joe has showing me how to not like when you 658 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 1: come up to like a little like crest in a ridge. 659 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 1: How you don't want to like silhouette yourself. And he 660 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: was like, Joe just went up a couple of notches 661 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 1: in my book. Yeah, he was demonstrating that. And as 662 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:45,879 Speaker 1: he was demonstrating it, he was like, oh my god, 663 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 1: there's a big buck right there. And then it was 664 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 1: perfect and were block management National forest blm um. We 665 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 1: did a little bit of block management, but then we 666 00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 1: got we were in the breaks. So then him yeah, okay, 667 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:03,880 Speaker 1: so go on. Um. So then he spotted him and 668 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:07,839 Speaker 1: started tracking way off, yeah, tracking him? Well, like, how 669 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 1: how far off? How far away yards from us? Can 670 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:13,480 Speaker 1: you tracked him? Whiting just because you know where he is? 671 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 1: Why do you have to track them, like get in 672 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 1: a better position? I don't know. Was he following a lady? 673 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 1: He was following the lady he was with. He was 674 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 1: moving there crazy, but you weren't tracking them. The term 675 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:32,839 Speaker 1: is stalking him. Okay, excuse me, I'm mostly if you. 676 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 1: If I learned that you guys spotted one and then 677 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:39,399 Speaker 1: it got away and then you tracked it down, that's 678 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 1: interesting to me. Well, yes, so then we started a 679 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 1: stock We ended up spooking them somehow they took off 680 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 1: and just ran and then we ended up tracking them 681 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 1: because Joe could see him bed down, way way, way 682 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:54,839 Speaker 1: off in the distance. That's not tracking. But then we 683 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 1: stopped him again. Okay, what is tracking? Tracking would be 684 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:03,399 Speaker 1: that you are um. Tracking would be that you are 685 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:09,360 Speaker 1: looking for signs on the ground with prints whatever, palmarks 686 00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,799 Speaker 1: in the snow. But when you see them, you're stocking. Yeah, yeah, 687 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,320 Speaker 1: you wouldn't be. You could be like attracted with my eyes, 688 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 1: but no one would say that. Okay, well then we 689 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 1: saw him bed down and then we so he spooked 690 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:23,280 Speaker 1: and went in bed down like a million miles away. 691 00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 1: What was your goal as far as the range you 692 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 1: wanted to get into? Um? We practiced UM at two 693 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:33,320 Speaker 1: hundred yards, but I was like, if we could be closer, Yeah, 694 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 1: I would like to be closer. And you practice shooting 695 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 1: off of off your pack or practice sitting over your knee. Yeah, 696 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 1: you did a lot of that, Yeah, but that was 697 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 1: not how the shot went down ended up being prone. 698 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 1: So that was but you were prepared to take a 699 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:52,719 Speaker 1: two yards shot off your knee probably, I mean we 700 00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:55,480 Speaker 1: had practiced that, but this is the second time I 701 00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 1: had held a rifle so I was a little nervous 702 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:00,080 Speaker 1: about that, as like we need to be closer. I 703 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 1: can lay down, I'd feel better about that position. Do 704 00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:06,640 Speaker 1: you like Joe or jan It's better. Wait, let's put 705 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: that on the board. You don't have to answer that. 706 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:16,919 Speaker 1: Just two totally different situations. So it beds way down 707 00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:19,480 Speaker 1: and then you guys started creeping in on what we 708 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 1: saw a little forky and Joe goes, do you want 709 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 1: that little guy? And I was like no, You at 710 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 1: that point was like this is for me. This would 711 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:30,799 Speaker 1: be a big deer. And I was like, well then 712 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:37,440 Speaker 1: I want Yeah. So so then what happened? You guys? 713 00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:40,319 Speaker 1: How long to take to creep in on it? Like 714 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 1: maybe forty minutes to creep in? And then he was 715 00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:44,880 Speaker 1: bedded down and he was doing one of those like 716 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:47,320 Speaker 1: he's so tired sleeping things where he was like sleeping 717 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 1: in and he jerk away out. Yeah. It was warm 718 00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 1: out and then it was really windy where we were, 719 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 1: but he's kind of in this little like, yeah, I 720 00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,440 Speaker 1: got out of the wind, bedded down. He was sleeping. 721 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,240 Speaker 1: He was sleeping so hard. Joe was like he's huge. 722 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 1: Joe's like seven are almost six seven? Yeah? I would 723 00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:11,080 Speaker 1: stay around there, yeah, and he would just he was 724 00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 1: just like so impatient. So he's like moving around, like 725 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,360 Speaker 1: standing up, sitting, and he's like, I just want to 726 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 1: get in a better spot. And the deer did not care. 727 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 1: It was aware of you. I don't think so, but 728 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,040 Speaker 1: like could see us, I mean, and if he was awake, 729 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:29,839 Speaker 1: I mean I could totally have seen. Yeah, But Joe 730 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 1: was just like so impatient moving around, and I was like, 731 00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 1: You're gonna spook him or something. I was like nervous 732 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 1: about that. Did Joe maybe wanted to stand up? No, 733 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:38,840 Speaker 1: he was trying to get in a better position for 734 00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:40,880 Speaker 1: me to see. And we kept creeping in. We got 735 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 1: into eighty four yards, so we got in really really close. Um, 736 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,879 Speaker 1: and then I moved and the deer stood up. Joe 737 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:51,520 Speaker 1: was like, you spooked him. I could do whatever I 738 00:42:51,560 --> 00:43:04,080 Speaker 1: wanted to. I wouldn't say it looked like that, ye know, yeah, 739 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:05,919 Speaker 1: And then he stood up and Joe was like, this 740 00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,799 Speaker 1: is this is it, It's gonna happen. And he stood 741 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 1: up and I looked at each other through the scope 742 00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:13,319 Speaker 1: and Joe leaned in. It was like, if you're going 743 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 1: to shoot, shoot now the shooting time, Yes, so you 744 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 1: were like, actually, like you dialed up your scope and 745 00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:26,279 Speaker 1: then it had a little eye contact with you walk 746 00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 1: through the scope. That was like a very like reckoning moment. 747 00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:33,880 Speaker 1: Do you purposely do that? And it just happened that 748 00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 1: your scope landed and you're pointing out his head and 749 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,080 Speaker 1: now I knew where he was when he was sleeping, 750 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:41,239 Speaker 1: you know. So like when he stood up, I was 751 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:44,759 Speaker 1: felt very prepared as opposed like turkey hunting, where it 752 00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 1: was such a surprise. I felt like it was like 753 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:49,239 Speaker 1: not like the turkey doesn't bed down and then stand up, 754 00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 1: Like this was a very different scenario. I got to 755 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 1: get very comfortable and feel very comfortable. So yeah, it's 756 00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 1: nice when you get time. Yeah, we had like and 757 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:00,759 Speaker 1: I think we sat on him for like an hour 758 00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:05,839 Speaker 1: maybe a little longer while he was sleeping. Yes, then 759 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 1: what happened? Um, then we walked over. Did he just 760 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:11,800 Speaker 1: keel over? Yeah? He went down immediately. You got a 761 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 1: good hit on him, yes, And Joe said the shot 762 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:18,279 Speaker 1: could have been more perfect, So nice work. Where did 763 00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:21,160 Speaker 1: you hit it right through the lungs? Okay? And it 764 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:23,920 Speaker 1: didn't go anywhere? M he just went right down. He 765 00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:27,040 Speaker 1: broke his nose. Hit the grounds, heart, broke his nose 766 00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:29,759 Speaker 1: dead or the Dornell when you got out there? What 767 00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:33,319 Speaker 1: is that? Why do people say that? Why did you 768 00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:38,239 Speaker 1: just say it? Where did it come from? I don't know? Why? 769 00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 1: Is it Dorne also dead? Well, then we're just personifying 770 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:48,239 Speaker 1: door nails. That's you. I guys know what a what 771 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:54,439 Speaker 1: an automotopia is? Yes? Yes, um okay. So it went 772 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:58,799 Speaker 1: down and Joe's all excited, and I was just like, 773 00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:01,240 Speaker 1: I don't know, was weird. It was a totally different 774 00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 1: than my reaction to Sneaky Pete. Granted I didn't get 775 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:05,200 Speaker 1: Sneaky Pete, but I thought it was going to be 776 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:08,400 Speaker 1: more of that, like adrenaline release and emotion, and it 777 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 1: was actually more like a just a void of emotion. Really, 778 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:14,640 Speaker 1: you didn't you didn't feel emotional. No, I didn't cry. 779 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 1: I just felt very like an out of body. It 780 00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:19,440 Speaker 1: almost like a little bit of experience walking up. I 781 00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:21,480 Speaker 1: just didn't that's right. You said that you were like 782 00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:23,840 Speaker 1: watching yourself. Yeah, that's what it felt like. It was 783 00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:26,040 Speaker 1: just a very weird experience. I thought it was going 784 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:30,920 Speaker 1: to be more rolls out of your body, yes, and 785 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:35,560 Speaker 1: looked down at myself. Yeah, what did you see what 786 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:43,480 Speaker 1: do you mean, dear me? Yeah? No, but walking up, 787 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 1: I was almost like I didn't know how to like 788 00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:50,040 Speaker 1: react either, but my my instinct was like, I feel 789 00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 1: weird saying this, but I like petted him like a dog. Like. 790 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:55,720 Speaker 1: I went like right down behind the years and pet 791 00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 1: him and Joe, Joe has this really awesome photo. I 792 00:45:58,200 --> 00:45:59,919 Speaker 1: didn't know. He took it in my hands on my heart. 793 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,160 Speaker 1: I'm like petting him and I thanked him and that 794 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:06,319 Speaker 1: was a very powerful moment for me. I didn't end 795 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:09,960 Speaker 1: up crying until I processed the meat that I was 796 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,600 Speaker 1: at SESS.

Okay, go ahead, Um okay, 945 00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:42,120 Speaker 1: who do you like better? It is not about better, 946 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:46,960 Speaker 1: it's different. It's different that I would I would totally 947 00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:51,600 Speaker 1: agree that it's just different. It's different. That's I don't 948 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:55,919 Speaker 1: need to make this about me. Um so wrong. Horn 949 00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:59,560 Speaker 1: hunt which was very cool. That was I guess technically 950 00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:02,600 Speaker 1: my first big game hunt. We hunted in Wyoming the 951 00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:09,719 Speaker 1: end of September. Yeah. Um, interestingly enough, I felt like, 952 00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:11,800 Speaker 1: I mean, we had had a good amount of practice, 953 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:14,799 Speaker 1: so I was starting to feel comfortable shooting, which was 954 00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:20,640 Speaker 1: like hugely important. Like we practiced two pretty extensive times 955 00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:22,640 Speaker 1: leading up to the hunt, which kind of gave me 956 00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:25,640 Speaker 1: a good sense of confidence. Especially coming out of the 957 00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:29,160 Speaker 1: Turkey hunt. I was a little bit um. I felt 958 00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:34,840 Speaker 1: a little insecure about my shooting capabilities. Um, given the 959 00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:37,280 Speaker 1: fact that I had taken that one shot that didn't 960 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:41,280 Speaker 1: work out so perfectly. Very different kinds of shooting though, Okay, 961 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:44,560 Speaker 1: that's fair, but without much experience, they didn't feel different 962 00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:46,480 Speaker 1: in my mind right, Like, I just felt like I 963 00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:48,839 Speaker 1: was still in a situation with a gun with the 964 00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:51,719 Speaker 1: intention of of taking a life, and I wanted to 965 00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:56,920 Speaker 1: be able to do so effectively, lethally, smoothly and without 966 00:55:57,480 --> 00:56:00,360 Speaker 1: um any sort of negative outcome, like that was the intent. 967 00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:02,640 Speaker 1: So it didn't feel different, even though yes, now I 968 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:06,359 Speaker 1: understand that they are different shooting um, and I feel 969 00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:09,840 Speaker 1: like are The Pronghorn hunt was nice because similar it 970 00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:12,840 Speaker 1: sounds like to Maggie, like we had time. We got 971 00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:14,920 Speaker 1: set up in a situation where we were able to 972 00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:18,800 Speaker 1: for like twenty or twenty five minutes stock to antelope. 973 00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:24,120 Speaker 1: It was a buck and a dough um pretty much. Yeah, 974 00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:28,200 Speaker 1: and your antelope was totally unaware of your being there, 975 00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:31,680 Speaker 1: completely unaware, completely unaware. They've betted down for a little while, 976 00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:33,799 Speaker 1: and so we were able to like and this is 977 00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:36,680 Speaker 1: where I kind of resonated with your communication comment, because 978 00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:40,520 Speaker 1: throughout this entire experience, I was like asking you like 979 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:43,640 Speaker 1: five million questions, Well, what happens if this happens? What 980 00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:46,040 Speaker 1: happens if this happens? Like I felt, we had a 981 00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:47,600 Speaker 1: lot of time to kind of work through a lot 982 00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:50,480 Speaker 1: of scenarios. I tend to be a little type a 983 00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:52,960 Speaker 1: controlling and so I like to play out all the 984 00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:55,359 Speaker 1: different potential outcomes and know what I'm going to do 985 00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:58,040 Speaker 1: with every single potential outcome, and that makes me feel 986 00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:01,719 Speaker 1: more empowered and comfortable. An example of what you might 987 00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:07,239 Speaker 1: have asked you honest about um, like okay, Like one 988 00:57:07,239 --> 00:57:09,760 Speaker 1: of the challenges we had was there was a pivot. 989 00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:12,080 Speaker 1: So we were hunting in a corn field and there 990 00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:15,040 Speaker 1: was a pivot, and the two antelope kind of continued 991 00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:16,880 Speaker 1: to come in and out of the plane of pivot. 992 00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:19,959 Speaker 1: Just saw everybody listen, knows exactly what we're doing. Sure, 993 00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:23,920 Speaker 1: So it's um farmland, and so it's how they irrigate. 994 00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:27,880 Speaker 1: So it's like a big irrigation water pivot with huge tires, 995 00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:30,200 Speaker 1: and so the antelope were kind of in front and 996 00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:32,920 Speaker 1: back and forth around the pivot, and so I was 997 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:35,840 Speaker 1: very apprehensive about getting set up at a place where 998 00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:37,920 Speaker 1: I felt comfortable being able to take the shot where 999 00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:40,760 Speaker 1: the tire wasn't exactly behind me. And then when they 1000 00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:42,560 Speaker 1: went on the other side of the pivot there were 1001 00:57:42,800 --> 00:57:45,160 Speaker 1: there was kind of a drop off, so then obviously 1002 00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:47,840 Speaker 1: the horizon was behind it. That's what you mean by 1003 00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:51,240 Speaker 1: dropping horizon, like not taking the shot because you can't 1004 00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:55,480 Speaker 1: see enough directly behind it. When you're flying in an 1005 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:57,680 Speaker 1: airplane and you look down and you see a square 1006 00:57:57,680 --> 00:57:59,760 Speaker 1: of ground with a circle in the square, and the 1007 00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:04,000 Speaker 1: of the circle touched the four flat sides of the square, 1008 00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:08,880 Speaker 1: you're looking down at the center pivot. Okay, let's telling people, 1009 00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:14,040 Speaker 1: oh cool around. Yeah, but I don't think that was 1010 00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:17,640 Speaker 1: the center pivot, was it. Those are long pivots. I 1011 00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:20,160 Speaker 1: don't think there's a lot of They'll sometimes make a 1012 00:58:20,200 --> 00:58:23,280 Speaker 1: pivot that only cuts forty five degrees. You think those 1013 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:29,080 Speaker 1: are center pivots? Uh, you're saying that instead the whole 1014 00:58:29,160 --> 00:58:34,960 Speaker 1: pivot like movies like good She's blowing me out of 1015 00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:39,720 Speaker 1: the water on egg here, probably wheel line, right, Okay, 1016 00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:43,040 Speaker 1: I'll back out. You don't see a lot of center 1017 00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:47,240 Speaker 1: pivots in Montana. Possibly Wyoming since we were in Wyoming's 1018 00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:49,880 Speaker 1: it's more of those line what do you call them lines? Well, 1019 00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:53,520 Speaker 1: we always called them wheel lines, but wheel lines because 1020 00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:57,360 Speaker 1: the old versions look like wheels are lower, like a 1021 00:58:57,360 --> 00:59:00,960 Speaker 1: wagon wheel four feet tall. Edited out all the stuff 1022 00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:02,200 Speaker 1: that makes me look like I don't know what I'm 1023 00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:08,040 Speaker 1: talking about. That for me to do that, for me 1024 00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:12,840 Speaker 1: to make me sound good, putting me saying something from 1025 00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:19,160 Speaker 1: another time. And then I saw the farmer come out 1026 00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:25,360 Speaker 1: and cut that corn. Okay, So the pivot you use 1027 00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:28,200 Speaker 1: the word pivot, I use the word pivot. It was 1028 00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:32,880 Speaker 1: a pivot, but it's still called a pivot, I believe. Anyways, 1029 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:36,320 Speaker 1: I'm not an agriculture export by any mean. Yeah, big 1030 00:59:36,360 --> 00:59:40,240 Speaker 1: gass tires the horizon. And so I was asking a 1031 00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:43,440 Speaker 1: lot of questions specifically relating to that. In addition to 1032 00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:46,040 Speaker 1: the fact that I was comfortable enough, we were able 1033 00:59:46,120 --> 00:59:49,000 Speaker 1: to set up in prone position, which was my desired position. 1034 00:59:49,080 --> 00:59:51,000 Speaker 1: Like I really we had been on a couple of 1035 00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:54,040 Speaker 1: antelope the day before, but it was a seated position. 1036 00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:57,000 Speaker 1: I really wasn't as comfortable shooting sitting up like I 1037 00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:58,880 Speaker 1: still need to work out my shooting and setting up 1038 00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:02,200 Speaker 1: UM was a major difference in my accuracy between being 1039 01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:05,439 Speaker 1: improne and being seated, so we were able to lie 1040 01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:07,920 Speaker 1: down and the other thing that was still kind of 1041 01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:10,520 Speaker 1: a struggle, which also was a struggle a little bit 1042 01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:12,840 Speaker 1: on my dear hunt with you, Steve is I still 1043 01:00:12,840 --> 01:00:16,800 Speaker 1: haven't mastered being able to like quickly and efficiently get 1044 01:00:16,840 --> 01:00:20,520 Speaker 1: set up on my gun with like total perfect vision 1045 01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:23,760 Speaker 1: in my scope. Same like it's like it takes me 1046 01:00:24,040 --> 01:00:26,800 Speaker 1: a good amount of time to feel comfortable in my 1047 01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:29,240 Speaker 1: scope where I'm like, Okay, now I have a lay 1048 01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:31,160 Speaker 1: of the land. Now I feel like I directly have 1049 01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:33,560 Speaker 1: you know, the view that I need to have, and 1050 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:35,600 Speaker 1: I'm comfortable in it. I can't just like hop right 1051 01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:37,480 Speaker 1: on and get it. Yeah, that's the thing we point 1052 01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:40,240 Speaker 1: out to people ahead. No, I was gonna say that 1053 01:00:40,480 --> 01:00:43,200 Speaker 1: you guys all have been I don't know, Kylie, maybe 1054 01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:46,560 Speaker 1: not so much. I think you, Maggie and Sam and 1055 01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:49,920 Speaker 1: Tracy have been on very accelerated sort of hunting programs 1056 01:00:49,960 --> 01:00:52,960 Speaker 1: here with us. And then I've said it before you 1057 01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:54,880 Speaker 1: guys all got done with these successful haunts, I'm like, 1058 01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:56,760 Speaker 1: now you got to go back and go hunt squirrels 1059 01:00:56,800 --> 01:01:00,360 Speaker 1: and rabbits for a couple of years, because that's where 1060 01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:02,800 Speaker 1: you get that practice of doing that, not shooting one 1061 01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:07,160 Speaker 1: anemop one deer. How to define stuff. We're are talking like, oh, 1062 01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:08,400 Speaker 1: when you're going to hunt, man, I was like super 1063 01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:10,600 Speaker 1: important breaking your boots or whatever, get in good shape 1064 01:01:10,680 --> 01:01:14,080 Speaker 1: for hill climbing. But new hunters a lot of stuff 1065 01:01:14,080 --> 01:01:16,120 Speaker 1: gives them the slip because they can't find it in 1066 01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:18,920 Speaker 1: the scope. I can totally relate to that. I can 1067 01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:22,720 Speaker 1: relate to them. It's I think you wind up it 1068 01:01:22,760 --> 01:01:24,480 Speaker 1: does it? It's not true when you're when you have 1069 01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:27,080 Speaker 1: it resting on a backpack. But just like free handing, 1070 01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:29,200 Speaker 1: I think one of the things that makes it easy 1071 01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:33,760 Speaker 1: is I'm looking at it and I bring the scope 1072 01:01:33,800 --> 01:01:37,919 Speaker 1: to my eye down. I don't like lose I don't 1073 01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:40,960 Speaker 1: really think of myself as losing sight of it. So 1074 01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:44,840 Speaker 1: you're moving your scope instead of moving your eye. And like, 1075 01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:46,360 Speaker 1: if I'm just like looking at something, I want to 1076 01:01:46,400 --> 01:01:48,240 Speaker 1: look at my skullpe I want to look at it 1077 01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:50,560 Speaker 1: right the day we did a quick little bit of 1078 01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:52,040 Speaker 1: squirrel hunting, and so you're just kind of like free 1079 01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:54,800 Speaker 1: handing and it's like I don't I don't put it 1080 01:01:54,920 --> 01:01:56,800 Speaker 1: up and then look through the scupe and then go 1081 01:01:56,920 --> 01:02:00,040 Speaker 1: searching for the thing. It's like my eyes on it 1082 01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:01,960 Speaker 1: and the scope just comes to it and there it is. 1083 01:02:02,480 --> 01:02:05,400 Speaker 1: I think I'm conforming the scope to where I'm already 1084 01:02:05,480 --> 01:02:07,640 Speaker 1: know I'm looking. Okay, I'm not. Any good thing people 1085 01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:10,320 Speaker 1: do is a they know it's out there, then they 1086 01:02:10,320 --> 01:02:11,880 Speaker 1: get where they're looking through the scope, and then they 1087 01:02:11,920 --> 01:02:15,480 Speaker 1: start this whole search process rather than being like, I 1088 01:02:15,520 --> 01:02:18,480 Speaker 1: know my eye needs to be doing like this, like 1089 01:02:18,680 --> 01:02:21,360 Speaker 1: this is where it is. Line that thing up to it. 1090 01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:24,320 Speaker 1: But but you know that doesn't But that's not how 1091 01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:26,120 Speaker 1: you're doing it. Like when you gotta laying on your backpack, 1092 01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:30,360 Speaker 1: you are your your eyes going to the scope, not 1093 01:02:30,800 --> 01:02:33,560 Speaker 1: the scope going to your eye. We were on a bipod, 1094 01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:38,240 Speaker 1: which was also awesome and like super stable and really 1095 01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:40,280 Speaker 1: clean set up. So that was like it was a 1096 01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:44,480 Speaker 1: strong level of the stand that clicks to here. It 1097 01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:46,680 Speaker 1: was great. I kept it in my pocket like it 1098 01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:48,680 Speaker 1: was easy to put on. Like that actually ended up 1099 01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:52,360 Speaker 1: being a huge asset for that hunt, especially since when 1100 01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:54,000 Speaker 1: we finally got set up, we were like on this 1101 01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:56,480 Speaker 1: little like noll and we had like literally a clean, 1102 01:02:56,800 --> 01:02:59,840 Speaker 1: a clean look directly at the antelope. The other thing. 1103 01:02:59,880 --> 01:03:01,919 Speaker 1: I think it's interesting too. And this was different than 1104 01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:04,960 Speaker 1: the turkey hunt. Um, something that was always on my 1105 01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:07,520 Speaker 1: mind was if you were in a scenario where there's 1106 01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:13,200 Speaker 1: multiple animals, ensuring that you are finding the correct animal 1107 01:03:13,720 --> 01:03:17,400 Speaker 1: was something that was anxiety producing for me. A little 1108 01:03:17,440 --> 01:03:19,120 Speaker 1: less so on the prong horn because it was just 1109 01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:22,280 Speaker 1: two and it was very clear, you know who the 1110 01:03:22,320 --> 01:03:25,080 Speaker 1: buck was and which one was the dough less so 1111 01:03:25,160 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 1: I had more of that challenge when we went deer 1112 01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:30,160 Speaker 1: hunting together Steve, because there were there were a lot, 1113 01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:32,520 Speaker 1: there were more deer, and it was hard for me 1114 01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:36,000 Speaker 1: to like actually find the buck in that group. Yeah, 1115 01:03:36,040 --> 01:03:39,040 Speaker 1: that was like a should have been here yesterday, but 1116 01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:41,640 Speaker 1: we were there yesterday. What do you mean do you 1117 01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:54,520 Speaker 1: mean just deer running? Oh? Yeah, like just going insane 1118 01:03:56,080 --> 01:04:00,400 Speaker 1: on that hunt. And and and obviously Jimmy was super 1119 01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:02,280 Speaker 1: excited about it. And Steve said to me afterwards, I 1120 01:04:02,320 --> 01:04:05,120 Speaker 1: really wish that maybe I hadn't brought him because he 1121 01:04:05,200 --> 01:04:08,360 Speaker 1: shouldn't see, Honey, situations where there's this many deer and 1122 01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:10,320 Speaker 1: that you don't have to work as hard as you 1123 01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:13,760 Speaker 1: need to work. He didn't like this. On the way out, 1124 01:04:14,040 --> 01:04:16,560 Speaker 1: he starts like trying to hit Tracy up for a 1125 01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:26,920 Speaker 1: permission a youth season. That's well, that deer was down 1126 01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:29,560 Speaker 1: to ground about five seconds he was angling in on 1127 01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:37,080 Speaker 1: so h next youth season. It hysteric, moly, that apple 1128 01:04:37,200 --> 01:04:43,360 Speaker 1: is not falling far h so so how far away 1129 01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:49,640 Speaker 1: was the animal? Just I think a little shy of three? Really, wow, Tracy, seriously, 1130 01:04:50,440 --> 01:04:53,200 Speaker 1: I wouldn't lie about it. Yeah, but you know, we 1131 01:04:53,280 --> 01:04:58,320 Speaker 1: had been in the field together practicing, you know, pro position. Um. 1132 01:04:58,360 --> 01:05:00,040 Speaker 1: I think just like a couple of days earlier, we 1133 01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:01,560 Speaker 1: had been at my house and I think the going 1134 01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:06,720 Speaker 1: on my house is that like to twenty and we 1135 01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:11,040 Speaker 1: had done when we were all doing some practicing together. Um, 1136 01:05:11,080 --> 01:05:13,560 Speaker 1: I had shot one time at three hundred and hit 1137 01:05:13,600 --> 01:05:16,800 Speaker 1: the gong. So I felt like I had clearly had 1138 01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:18,800 Speaker 1: the ability to do it. And the fact that we 1139 01:05:18,840 --> 01:05:20,840 Speaker 1: had been set up for like what was it, probably 1140 01:05:21,440 --> 01:05:23,640 Speaker 1: thirty minutes or so. I felt comfortable. I was able 1141 01:05:23,680 --> 01:05:25,400 Speaker 1: to take a lot of deep breaths, I was able 1142 01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:29,840 Speaker 1: to relax into the you double along to him. Yeah, 1143 01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:32,560 Speaker 1: it wasn't bad. It was bad. I mean he didn't 1144 01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:35,040 Speaker 1: even make it to the other side of the time. 1145 01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:41,000 Speaker 1: I was like, no, no, like you'd seen, you'd almost 1146 01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:44,320 Speaker 1: like not just only visualized, but actually been through physically, 1147 01:05:44,360 --> 01:05:48,040 Speaker 1: like like the scope itself. Right, we had zero and 1148 01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:49,880 Speaker 1: you had hit the gong with the first hash mark 1149 01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:52,280 Speaker 1: at my house first try a couple of days earlier, 1150 01:05:52,480 --> 01:05:54,600 Speaker 1: and then using the next hash mark down, which we 1151 01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:57,320 Speaker 1: knew was three hundred. It's like, there's really no difference. 1152 01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:00,439 Speaker 1: You're just gonna use that second hash mark down dead 1153 01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:03,840 Speaker 1: center and you felt comfortable. No, my surprise wasn't that 1154 01:06:03,880 --> 01:06:06,880 Speaker 1: you shouldn't have. It's just like, having seen the spot, 1155 01:06:06,920 --> 01:06:10,720 Speaker 1: I didn't realize it was that far away. Oh, I say, right, 1156 01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:13,840 Speaker 1: not shocked that Tracy was able to do that, not 1157 01:06:13,880 --> 01:06:18,760 Speaker 1: at all. And also you're you're not impulsive, the opposite 1158 01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:21,560 Speaker 1: of impulsive when it comes to shooting. I don't mean, 1159 01:06:21,640 --> 01:06:23,520 Speaker 1: I'm not saying in life, I don't know, but when 1160 01:06:23,520 --> 01:06:26,160 Speaker 1: it comes to shooting, you're not like that kind of 1161 01:06:26,440 --> 01:06:30,400 Speaker 1: like just let's get the lead flying And no that's 1162 01:06:30,440 --> 01:06:33,640 Speaker 1: not really No, I'm not comfortable with that. And I 1163 01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:38,400 Speaker 1: even have experience with you that my um my pace 1164 01:06:38,520 --> 01:06:47,360 Speaker 1: at times can create some frustration on your like for example, 1165 01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:52,640 Speaker 1: when I was um when we were hunting deer together 1166 01:06:53,640 --> 01:06:57,080 Speaker 1: I'm set up. I didn't feel like perfectly comfortable in 1167 01:06:57,120 --> 01:06:59,800 Speaker 1: that situation because I was sitting up. I was trying 1168 01:06:59,840 --> 01:07:02,920 Speaker 1: to get in a place mood. Okay, yeah, set the 1169 01:07:02,920 --> 01:07:09,520 Speaker 1: mood laid out. Tracy has a like a little horse property, 1170 01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:14,040 Speaker 1: has some horses and then has some friendly relations with 1171 01:07:14,040 --> 01:07:16,960 Speaker 1: her neighbors and it's a little bit of a patchwork 1172 01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:21,400 Speaker 1: of landownership. And we just left her house and went 1173 01:07:21,400 --> 01:07:24,760 Speaker 1: on a little stroll in the neighbor's place, and it 1174 01:07:24,840 --> 01:07:28,720 Speaker 1: was like unbelievable. Yeah, it was like the night. Well 1175 01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:35,520 Speaker 1: it was the date um Saturday, novemb just like the night. 1176 01:07:36,240 --> 01:07:38,440 Speaker 1: But I don't think it was just the night though, Steve. 1177 01:07:38,480 --> 01:07:41,000 Speaker 1: I mean I had been sending you pictures like leading 1178 01:07:41,080 --> 01:07:43,680 Speaker 1: up to it, because that one piece of property like 1179 01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:47,320 Speaker 1: obviously doesn't get really any pressure, and the deer are 1180 01:07:47,360 --> 01:07:50,920 Speaker 1: there in high volumes all the time, but it's not 1181 01:07:51,680 --> 01:07:54,520 Speaker 1: there's that and it wasn't just but it was the behavior. 1182 01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:59,440 Speaker 1: There was a lot of them, but there's a lot 1183 01:07:59,480 --> 01:08:02,280 Speaker 1: of them. It was the behavior is those books were 1184 01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:05,920 Speaker 1: just yeah, like you think they were leaving, but then 1185 01:08:05,960 --> 01:08:07,800 Speaker 1: you realized they're not. They're just like going over to 1186 01:08:08,520 --> 01:08:11,600 Speaker 1: like check something and coming back and singing and like, 1187 01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:15,920 Speaker 1: here's what I don't you know about? Yeah, just like 1188 01:08:16,320 --> 01:08:19,960 Speaker 1: and no sort of concerted movement in any direction and 1189 01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:23,559 Speaker 1: just like zig zag and crossing and tongues hanging out. Yeah, 1190 01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:25,840 Speaker 1: it's just like we just kind of waded into it, 1191 01:08:26,280 --> 01:08:27,360 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, I was like, you can't. 1192 01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:31,599 Speaker 1: I still don't know how many little little box like thinkers, 1193 01:08:31,640 --> 01:08:34,439 Speaker 1: but just bunches of them. Yeah, yeah, there were a 1194 01:08:34,439 --> 01:08:37,880 Speaker 1: lot of them. Couldn't keep them straight totally because the 1195 01:08:37,920 --> 01:08:40,160 Speaker 1: first kind of deer that we tried to get set 1196 01:08:40,240 --> 01:08:42,599 Speaker 1: up on, we then spooked a little bit, and then 1197 01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:45,320 Speaker 1: we moved in a little bit, immediately found another book. 1198 01:08:45,600 --> 01:08:47,240 Speaker 1: Had to move in a little bit more to kind 1199 01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:48,800 Speaker 1: of get some grass out of the way to be 1200 01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:51,120 Speaker 1: able to like actually sit and have a clear shot. 1201 01:08:51,280 --> 01:08:53,679 Speaker 1: And I got all three of my kids true, which 1202 01:08:53,720 --> 01:08:56,680 Speaker 1: added incremental pressure because from the moment they showed up, 1203 01:08:56,880 --> 01:08:59,960 Speaker 1: Jimmy was like, you're gonna break You're gonna break our record. Right, 1204 01:09:00,000 --> 01:09:01,880 Speaker 1: You're gonna brek our record of how quickly we shoot 1205 01:09:01,880 --> 01:09:07,120 Speaker 1: a deer. Right, I am the wrong girl. There's a 1206 01:09:07,240 --> 01:09:11,280 Speaker 1: record in the Ronella household. He and I last year 1207 01:09:11,640 --> 01:09:14,040 Speaker 1: this didn't happen. It was this year. So last year 1208 01:09:14,680 --> 01:09:22,160 Speaker 1: around Thanksgiving, UM, like yeah, so we're hunting white tails 1209 01:09:22,439 --> 01:09:25,679 Speaker 1: and we went out and we're hunting on an open 1210 01:09:25,720 --> 01:09:29,679 Speaker 1: access area like a black management area. And we went 1211 01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:31,840 Speaker 1: and there's a fence, there's like a safety zone and 1212 01:09:31,880 --> 01:09:33,679 Speaker 1: there's public hunting on the other side of the fence. 1213 01:09:34,120 --> 01:09:37,559 Speaker 1: And we basically got to the fence and sat down 1214 01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:43,080 Speaker 1: or like back to the fence and had hot chocolate 1215 01:09:43,080 --> 01:09:45,000 Speaker 1: with us and everything. It's two in the afternoon and 1216 01:09:45,080 --> 01:09:48,680 Speaker 1: I like rattle, like a twenty second rattle session and 1217 01:09:48,720 --> 01:09:50,320 Speaker 1: I know, sooner than putting him down. And he's like, 1218 01:09:50,360 --> 01:09:54,559 Speaker 1: here's the buck, and I'm and I keep always laugh ABox. 1219 01:09:54,680 --> 01:09:56,120 Speaker 1: I was kind of like thinking, like, shut up, kid, 1220 01:09:56,120 --> 01:10:01,240 Speaker 1: I'm trying to hunt. You know enough, here's a book 1221 01:10:01,479 --> 01:10:03,479 Speaker 1: running at us. You know. We hadn't even done, Like 1222 01:10:03,600 --> 01:10:06,640 Speaker 1: I said, we talked about the hot chocolate yet. I 1223 01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:08,680 Speaker 1: mean it was over and we were done hunting in 1224 01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:11,840 Speaker 1: three minutes. So that was in his mind that that's 1225 01:10:11,840 --> 01:10:16,920 Speaker 1: how you do a deer hunt, so high standards, high expectations. 1226 01:10:16,920 --> 01:10:19,920 Speaker 1: I was like, let's change your perspective. That's not going 1227 01:10:19,960 --> 01:10:23,040 Speaker 1: to happen. But not only do I have obviously the 1228 01:10:23,080 --> 01:10:27,160 Speaker 1: pressure of you know, Steve, because there is pressure. When 1229 01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:31,160 Speaker 1: I was Steve, I was held back. I was back 1230 01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:33,519 Speaker 1: with my daughter, my little boy. Okay, you were up 1231 01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:35,600 Speaker 1: with my older boy. I understand that, but I'm just 1232 01:10:35,600 --> 01:10:42,800 Speaker 1: saying that he was. He was impatient, absolutely, but like 1233 01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:47,680 Speaker 1: you're like, okay, I want to like succeed. There's high expectations, 1234 01:10:47,800 --> 01:10:50,840 Speaker 1: like I'm still very new and novice at this. And 1235 01:10:50,840 --> 01:10:53,479 Speaker 1: then you add that all three kids are like come on, 1236 01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:57,760 Speaker 1: get it, like that was like quadruple. But you were 1237 01:10:57,800 --> 01:10:59,960 Speaker 1: you were hunting with the flip flop flusher. Thank God 1238 01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:03,000 Speaker 1: for the flop flusher. Once again, this is um the 1239 01:11:03,040 --> 01:11:06,680 Speaker 1: second time the flip flop flusher has come through for me. UM. 1240 01:11:06,720 --> 01:11:10,160 Speaker 1: And he was real relaxed and and was not putting 1241 01:11:10,200 --> 01:11:12,600 Speaker 1: pressure on and was helping me get set up and 1242 01:11:12,640 --> 01:11:16,280 Speaker 1: get comfortable and not taking the shot. Um if I 1243 01:11:16,320 --> 01:11:20,400 Speaker 1: wasn't comfortable, But so I took my first shot. At 1244 01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:23,120 Speaker 1: one point I didn't have to crawl forward. Oh my gosh, 1245 01:11:23,840 --> 01:11:27,280 Speaker 1: my kids like a crawl forward because I'm talking to 1246 01:11:27,920 --> 01:11:34,280 Speaker 1: what's the problem. He didn't say it like that story. Yes, 1247 01:11:34,680 --> 01:11:38,240 Speaker 1: So it's like I'm like on my daughter's like what 1248 01:11:38,360 --> 01:11:44,920 Speaker 1: is she doing? Was just insane six year old like 1249 01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:49,559 Speaker 1: so and literally I'm like adjusting my gun and then 1250 01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:52,519 Speaker 1: I hear what's the problem. And I'm like in my 1251 01:11:52,880 --> 01:11:55,479 Speaker 1: right ear, like behind, what's the problem? Was taking so long? 1252 01:11:55,880 --> 01:11:58,200 Speaker 1: I literally looked back. I'm like, I'm getting comfortable and 1253 01:11:58,200 --> 01:12:02,080 Speaker 1: set up. That's what's taking and you're inter go back, 1254 01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:08,599 Speaker 1: go back to your seat. But and then my first shot, 1255 01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:13,840 Speaker 1: I just still have such that moment leading up to 1256 01:12:13,880 --> 01:12:19,120 Speaker 1: pulling the trigger is such a overwhelmingly emotional feeling leading 1257 01:12:19,240 --> 01:12:23,320 Speaker 1: up to It's like the anticipation. It's like, Okay, he's 1258 01:12:23,400 --> 01:12:26,439 Speaker 1: clear in my in my scope, this is this is 1259 01:12:26,439 --> 01:12:29,600 Speaker 1: the right time to take the shot. But the anticipation 1260 01:12:29,680 --> 01:12:31,600 Speaker 1: of my mind going, what's going to happen? Is it 1261 01:12:31,640 --> 01:12:33,479 Speaker 1: going to be a good enough shot? What's the feeling 1262 01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:36,880 Speaker 1: going to feel? Like the like angst of like not 1263 01:12:37,040 --> 01:12:40,559 Speaker 1: knowing is still something that like really like take takes 1264 01:12:40,640 --> 01:12:46,400 Speaker 1: over for me. My brother talks about that, um he 1265 01:12:47,200 --> 01:12:53,799 Speaker 1: thinks that that feeling, that question is what throws him 1266 01:12:53,840 --> 01:12:58,800 Speaker 1: when he throws an archery shot. Oh, intersting, It's like 1267 01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:04,519 Speaker 1: the wanting to know what will happen? Yea and the 1268 01:13:04,720 --> 01:13:09,640 Speaker 1: question about what will happen is is what that's what 1269 01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:11,800 Speaker 1: gets in his head and messes up his system. I 1270 01:13:11,840 --> 01:13:18,880 Speaker 1: can I there's no negative. You'll suffare right exactly exactly 1271 01:13:20,040 --> 01:13:21,639 Speaker 1: like I don't want a negative to happen. I don't 1272 01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:23,320 Speaker 1: want a negative to happen. I don't want a negative 1273 01:13:23,360 --> 01:13:27,559 Speaker 1: to happen. Yes, negative As a result, I think of 1274 01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:30,559 Speaker 1: like thinking that your entire body must like tense up 1275 01:13:30,600 --> 01:13:32,840 Speaker 1: a little bit, because obviously there's such a connection between 1276 01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:35,240 Speaker 1: mind and physical body that I feel like when you're 1277 01:13:35,240 --> 01:13:37,000 Speaker 1: tense like that and you take your shot, I feel 1278 01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:39,880 Speaker 1: like those were the moments practicing where I'd like throw 1279 01:13:39,960 --> 01:13:41,840 Speaker 1: to the right or something because I would feel like 1280 01:13:42,479 --> 01:13:44,559 Speaker 1: worked up about like what was going to happen and 1281 01:13:44,680 --> 01:13:45,960 Speaker 1: was I going to make a good shot, And then 1282 01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:47,800 Speaker 1: you'd end up throwing it a little bit. Don't you 1283 01:13:47,960 --> 01:13:50,599 Speaker 1: think that speaks to like the confidence that you're feeling 1284 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:52,800 Speaker 1: in that moment and like should you not take that 1285 01:13:52,840 --> 01:13:56,599 Speaker 1: shot there? Because like I like, there's definitely those times 1286 01:13:56,600 --> 01:13:58,640 Speaker 1: where it's like I set up for a shot and 1287 01:13:58,720 --> 01:14:01,760 Speaker 1: I thought that then when I actually killed my dear, 1288 01:14:02,520 --> 01:14:04,960 Speaker 1: I did not have any of those feelings, Like none 1289 01:14:04,960 --> 01:14:07,200 Speaker 1: of that went through my brain. It seems like the 1290 01:14:07,240 --> 01:14:08,880 Speaker 1: best shooters are the people that go from A to 1291 01:14:08,960 --> 01:14:12,000 Speaker 1: B to C without getting too far ahead of the line. 1292 01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:15,000 Speaker 1: You know. They're like compartmentalizing. I do this, I do this, 1293 01:14:15,080 --> 01:14:18,080 Speaker 1: and when you throw in D in front of B. Yeah, 1294 01:14:18,479 --> 01:14:20,599 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Yes, that's a very good 1295 01:14:20,600 --> 01:14:22,800 Speaker 1: way of thinking about it. I try to come up 1296 01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:28,360 Speaker 1: with for archery. I try to come up with ah 1297 01:14:28,640 --> 01:14:31,639 Speaker 1: mantra is not the right word. It's like a series 1298 01:14:31,680 --> 01:14:34,960 Speaker 1: of steps, sort of like yeah at that point, yeah, 1299 01:14:35,080 --> 01:14:37,280 Speaker 1: and I still and and Mark Kenyon talks a little 1300 01:14:37,280 --> 01:14:39,560 Speaker 1: bit about this too, like he's got a little thingy repeats, 1301 01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:42,920 Speaker 1: but then you just forget to repeat it. Yeah. Well 1302 01:14:42,960 --> 01:14:46,559 Speaker 1: then you just in front of you and everything goes black. 1303 01:14:46,680 --> 01:14:51,760 Speaker 1: Yeah oh yeah, here's the part right anchor here. As 1304 01:14:51,800 --> 01:14:53,640 Speaker 1: it's coming, I'm like, oh yeah, I'm gonna do my 1305 01:14:53,720 --> 01:14:56,280 Speaker 1: little deal. Yeah, I'm gonna do that deal like nice 1306 01:14:56,320 --> 01:14:58,720 Speaker 1: and slow. And then all of a sudden you put 1307 01:14:58,800 --> 01:15:01,120 Speaker 1: your ball bag and just like don't do the D. No. 1308 01:15:01,600 --> 01:15:03,920 Speaker 1: But there are shooters that can do the deal, and 1309 01:15:03,960 --> 01:15:08,919 Speaker 1: they're the ones that kill giants. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'd 1310 01:15:08,960 --> 01:15:10,960 Speaker 1: like to get better at that because that that I 1311 01:15:10,960 --> 01:15:14,320 Speaker 1: feel like, in of itself is like a reason why 1312 01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:17,160 Speaker 1: I still feel like nervous and a little bit intimidated. 1313 01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:21,799 Speaker 1: So you touch one off and what happens? It freaking 1314 01:15:21,840 --> 01:15:25,000 Speaker 1: didn't go anywhere like my first shot. I was like, 1315 01:15:25,400 --> 01:15:27,719 Speaker 1: you know, after you take your shot, you're like, what happened? 1316 01:15:27,800 --> 01:15:36,760 Speaker 1: What happened? What's like? So that's like you didn't touch 1317 01:15:36,760 --> 01:15:44,479 Speaker 1: anything that's deadly shit, I don't know what happened. And 1318 01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:48,680 Speaker 1: I was like, oh no, because I was like he 1319 01:15:48,920 --> 01:15:51,479 Speaker 1: wasn't that far off? How far was he? I can't 1320 01:15:51,479 --> 01:15:57,120 Speaker 1: remember it or something. Yeah, it's not something. I didn't 1321 01:15:57,160 --> 01:16:02,800 Speaker 1: feel uncomfortable distance not. I think it was like that 1322 01:16:02,840 --> 01:16:06,000 Speaker 1: shot was very close after you had crawled up, and 1323 01:16:06,040 --> 01:16:11,839 Speaker 1: I was like, you can say that. I was starting 1324 01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:13,680 Speaker 1: to get a little dark. I was like starting to 1325 01:16:13,720 --> 01:16:16,519 Speaker 1: play through too much in my crazy head. You know. 1326 01:16:16,760 --> 01:16:20,160 Speaker 1: I thought maybe something had happened and someone's wrong with you. 1327 01:16:20,240 --> 01:16:24,760 Speaker 1: Were you rattled afterwards after that one shot? So I 1328 01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:27,439 Speaker 1: wasn't rattled, but I was like, Okay, something is a 1329 01:16:27,439 --> 01:16:30,120 Speaker 1: little amiss here. I need to like re center and 1330 01:16:30,280 --> 01:16:34,360 Speaker 1: regroup and like get my stuff together before taking this 1331 01:16:34,400 --> 01:16:36,960 Speaker 1: next year because I didn't move. The deer did not 1332 01:16:37,240 --> 01:16:40,280 Speaker 1: move like he like looked up. He was like, no, 1333 01:16:40,680 --> 01:16:44,879 Speaker 1: I said, they were just so I was like, okay, 1334 01:16:44,960 --> 01:16:47,840 Speaker 1: well now I have the same situation. Let me re 1335 01:16:48,120 --> 01:16:51,599 Speaker 1: calibrate everything and get organized and try again. Yeah, I've 1336 01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:53,759 Speaker 1: had it where you missed and then on that second 1337 01:16:53,760 --> 01:16:56,200 Speaker 1: shot you're like, okay, now I know what I need 1338 01:16:56,200 --> 01:16:59,120 Speaker 1: to do. Yeah, yeah, that's an interesting point totally like 1339 01:16:59,200 --> 01:17:01,960 Speaker 1: you kind of get focus. The client said this I'll 1340 01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:04,679 Speaker 1: never forget because he I think, had like two years 1341 01:17:04,680 --> 01:17:07,400 Speaker 1: in a row, killed on a second shot after within 1342 01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:10,200 Speaker 1: the first one, and when he would retell the story, 1343 01:17:10,240 --> 01:17:12,080 Speaker 1: he don't. It would like to remind everybody at the 1344 01:17:12,120 --> 01:17:16,479 Speaker 1: table that you know, like any hunter, good average hunter 1345 01:17:16,520 --> 01:17:18,360 Speaker 1: can kill on the first shot, but it really takes 1346 01:17:18,400 --> 01:17:23,120 Speaker 1: a great hunter compose yourself after a miss and then 1347 01:17:23,160 --> 01:17:30,960 Speaker 1: make a great second shot. I don't know. But then 1348 01:17:31,720 --> 01:17:34,080 Speaker 1: so my second shot I hit him and he went 1349 01:17:34,240 --> 01:17:37,040 Speaker 1: right down. The other element that I find I really 1350 01:17:37,040 --> 01:17:39,400 Speaker 1: struggle with two and this happened with my antelope. Punt 1351 01:17:39,520 --> 01:17:43,320 Speaker 1: is I have not mastered like staying in my scope 1352 01:17:43,400 --> 01:17:46,160 Speaker 1: after the shot to be able to keep a close 1353 01:17:46,240 --> 01:17:49,679 Speaker 1: look at what actually has happened. Like my antelope unt 1354 01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:52,839 Speaker 1: I saw, I couldn't tell if it was the bucker 1355 01:17:52,960 --> 01:17:54,720 Speaker 1: the dough that was still in my scope and I 1356 01:17:54,760 --> 01:17:56,760 Speaker 1: had to look up and it was the honest who 1357 01:17:56,800 --> 01:18:00,720 Speaker 1: was like, great shot, He's down. And same with the deer. 1358 01:18:00,720 --> 01:18:03,040 Speaker 1: I'm like, where where is he? What happened? Like? I 1359 01:18:03,040 --> 01:18:05,559 Speaker 1: feel like I have not like masterds staying in my 1360 01:18:05,600 --> 01:18:08,800 Speaker 1: scope and being able to fully evaluate kind of the 1361 01:18:11,360 --> 01:18:16,840 Speaker 1: on those light recoil rifles, Um, you have six five 1362 01:18:16,920 --> 01:18:21,240 Speaker 1: creed more On those light leak recoil rifles. Uh, they 1363 01:18:21,240 --> 01:18:24,080 Speaker 1: tend to kind of settle right back in. The reason 1364 01:18:24,120 --> 01:18:26,280 Speaker 1: I depending on your body posture, they might jump right 1365 01:18:26,360 --> 01:18:28,680 Speaker 1: or left, but if you're like square to them, they 1366 01:18:28,720 --> 01:18:31,400 Speaker 1: tend to settle back in. But so few people I 1367 01:18:31,439 --> 01:18:34,760 Speaker 1: don't do it. I I have followed through because I 1368 01:18:35,200 --> 01:18:37,439 Speaker 1: just know I could like shoot fairly accurately, but I 1369 01:18:37,760 --> 01:18:39,120 Speaker 1: lift my head up to see what's going on because 1370 01:18:39,160 --> 01:18:41,000 Speaker 1: I want to see what's going on. It's kind of human, 1371 01:18:42,400 --> 01:18:46,000 Speaker 1: but like like really like technical shooters stay in it right, 1372 01:18:46,160 --> 01:18:48,679 Speaker 1: and they like they like it. Like like real technical 1373 01:18:48,680 --> 01:18:52,360 Speaker 1: shooters sort of a mark of of their shooting skill 1374 01:18:52,439 --> 01:18:55,320 Speaker 1: and process and positioning is that that thing settles right 1375 01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:57,760 Speaker 1: back where it was like that you should be like 1376 01:18:58,200 --> 01:19:00,679 Speaker 1: the recoil wayam it drops back down and you're looking 1377 01:19:00,720 --> 01:19:03,679 Speaker 1: at it totally Like I would love to be able 1378 01:19:03,720 --> 01:19:05,439 Speaker 1: to find tune that because I feel like if I 1379 01:19:05,479 --> 01:19:08,080 Speaker 1: were ever in a situation which I feel like is 1380 01:19:08,120 --> 01:19:12,320 Speaker 1: a common situation where you're not able to get a 1381 01:19:12,360 --> 01:19:16,280 Speaker 1: shot that is you know, clean and lethal, or you 1382 01:19:16,320 --> 01:19:19,200 Speaker 1: know that that that the animal drops to be able 1383 01:19:19,240 --> 01:19:21,240 Speaker 1: to be in a situation where you're calm and organized 1384 01:19:21,240 --> 01:19:23,160 Speaker 1: and collected and exactly where the animal is be able 1385 01:19:23,160 --> 01:19:26,000 Speaker 1: to take a second shot, like that's something that you know, 1386 01:19:26,040 --> 01:19:27,920 Speaker 1: I've thought a lot about and I'm not sure I 1387 01:19:27,960 --> 01:19:32,280 Speaker 1: would be capable of shooting magnum rifles off the backpacks 1388 01:19:32,320 --> 01:19:36,920 Speaker 1: and you know, bushes and cactuses and whatnot. It just doesn't. 1389 01:19:37,479 --> 01:19:39,640 Speaker 1: I just lit my head up. I want to know 1390 01:19:39,680 --> 01:19:41,080 Speaker 1: what's going on because something as you need to know 1391 01:19:41,080 --> 01:19:43,840 Speaker 1: what's going on totally. But I had a great buddy 1392 01:19:43,880 --> 01:19:45,960 Speaker 1: that James and Nash told me when I had a 1393 01:19:45,960 --> 01:19:48,040 Speaker 1: flinch or when something like that, when I pop up, 1394 01:19:48,040 --> 01:19:50,000 Speaker 1: he said, you gotta go shoot five hundred grounds for 1395 01:19:50,160 --> 01:19:53,400 Speaker 1: twenty two and just get comfortable with like a small 1396 01:19:53,479 --> 01:19:59,040 Speaker 1: caliber rifle and then your body sort of mechanically exactly 1397 01:19:59,160 --> 01:20:01,519 Speaker 1: interesting to go shoot ground scrolls or something, you know, 1398 01:20:01,640 --> 01:20:03,839 Speaker 1: our targets with the twenty two and there's no impact 1399 01:20:03,920 --> 01:20:07,320 Speaker 1: your shoulder at all. Yeah, military shooters, man, it's all 1400 01:20:07,360 --> 01:20:10,280 Speaker 1: through the scroll. They just looked there. That's where they're looking, 1401 01:20:10,280 --> 01:20:11,960 Speaker 1: and ask where they stay looking. The other thing I 1402 01:20:12,080 --> 01:20:15,439 Speaker 1: learned to where I realized was, um, the at least 1403 01:20:15,479 --> 01:20:19,760 Speaker 1: for me, the importance of having done some practice in 1404 01:20:19,840 --> 01:20:24,080 Speaker 1: a close time period to actually going out, because I 1405 01:20:24,080 --> 01:20:27,760 Speaker 1: remember reflecting and thinking about the difference of like on 1406 01:20:27,840 --> 01:20:30,040 Speaker 1: the antelope on we had had a couple of practice days. 1407 01:20:30,080 --> 01:20:33,479 Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, it's it's recent. My capability within 1408 01:20:33,520 --> 01:20:36,400 Speaker 1: this realm is recent. And we didn't practice before we 1409 01:20:36,439 --> 01:20:37,960 Speaker 1: went out because it wasn't like it was that much 1410 01:20:37,960 --> 01:20:41,000 Speaker 1: time period. But I definitely felt like I was worried 1411 01:20:41,040 --> 01:20:45,160 Speaker 1: about being rusty. So like the importance of practice of 1412 01:20:45,200 --> 01:20:48,439 Speaker 1: like just getting that comfort level and like quieting your 1413 01:20:48,479 --> 01:20:52,920 Speaker 1: mind I think is hugely beneficial. So I know what happened. 1414 01:20:52,920 --> 01:20:55,960 Speaker 1: You shot again? Well, yeah, the second shot I hit, 1415 01:20:56,080 --> 01:20:59,280 Speaker 1: I hit the deer. The deer went down, and so 1416 01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:02,000 Speaker 1: then you came running up with the kids and said, Okay, 1417 01:21:02,000 --> 01:21:04,479 Speaker 1: we gotta go. We've got to you know, we've got 1418 01:21:04,479 --> 01:21:06,439 Speaker 1: to get over there to make sure everything is okay 1419 01:21:06,439 --> 01:21:08,200 Speaker 1: to look at. You know, we don't know what the 1420 01:21:08,240 --> 01:21:12,599 Speaker 1: current state of the deer is, which wasn't really something 1421 01:21:12,600 --> 01:21:15,680 Speaker 1: that I had been thinking about. So on that conversation 1422 01:21:15,800 --> 01:21:18,759 Speaker 1: that walk over I definitely started to become a little 1423 01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:21,280 Speaker 1: bit worked out, because I was pretty excited to get 1424 01:21:21,320 --> 01:21:24,439 Speaker 1: over there. Oh man, well I had seen some I 1425 01:21:24,520 --> 01:21:29,760 Speaker 1: had seen some reasonably we should probably get over there. 1426 01:21:29,920 --> 01:21:31,840 Speaker 1: You never told me that. Well, I told you get 1427 01:21:31,880 --> 01:21:36,479 Speaker 1: over there. What did you see? I'm curious what did 1428 01:21:36,479 --> 01:21:38,919 Speaker 1: you see that made you feel as though that perhaps 1429 01:21:38,920 --> 01:21:42,960 Speaker 1: the deer was not dead? Just the I mean, it's 1430 01:21:42,960 --> 01:21:46,439 Speaker 1: like very tell just very tell tale, the way like 1431 01:21:46,520 --> 01:21:49,760 Speaker 1: it hits and then what it does after down, like 1432 01:21:49,840 --> 01:21:56,280 Speaker 1: any sort of um, any sort of like actual concerted 1433 01:21:56,360 --> 01:21:59,719 Speaker 1: effort to get something, like any kind of like logical movement, 1434 01:22:00,840 --> 01:22:03,680 Speaker 1: like with turkeys, right, like turkeys hume they just flop, 1435 01:22:04,560 --> 01:22:06,479 Speaker 1: But all of a sudden you realize that the turkey 1436 01:22:06,560 --> 01:22:11,439 Speaker 1: is kind of like very definitely flopping away from you. 1437 01:22:11,560 --> 01:22:14,320 Speaker 1: Like that's not good. That's like, that's not him flopping. 1438 01:22:14,439 --> 01:22:20,439 Speaker 1: That's things going wrong, you know, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, 1439 01:22:20,520 --> 01:22:23,439 Speaker 1: So I don't know, I just saw, like I felt something. Yeah, 1440 01:22:23,520 --> 01:22:26,440 Speaker 1: I mean I saw, I mean yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. 1441 01:22:26,600 --> 01:22:31,160 Speaker 1: So we scooted. It was immediately mortally wounded correct um. 1442 01:22:31,240 --> 01:22:33,679 Speaker 1: And so that was a whole another kind of first 1443 01:22:33,720 --> 01:22:38,679 Speaker 1: time experience, UM in the sense of we got over 1444 01:22:38,720 --> 01:22:43,879 Speaker 1: there and the deer was not dead, um, and that 1445 01:22:43,880 --> 01:22:47,280 Speaker 1: that that is something that's very hard for me. That 1446 01:22:47,439 --> 01:22:49,000 Speaker 1: was like I had a moment where I was like, 1447 01:22:49,000 --> 01:22:50,599 Speaker 1: I don't want to do this, I like talk about 1448 01:22:50,640 --> 01:22:52,719 Speaker 1: kids immediately, sir, we're trying to make you feel better. 1449 01:22:57,680 --> 01:23:02,320 Speaker 1: I didn't know that. That's sweet, totally very sweet. Yeah. 1450 01:23:06,560 --> 01:23:09,880 Speaker 1: I don't know why they were not upset, but I 1451 01:23:09,880 --> 01:23:12,840 Speaker 1: remember which ones were like, oh, don't worry. Both both 1452 01:23:12,960 --> 01:23:16,360 Speaker 1: both Rosie and Jimmy were like that. I mean, Jimmy 1453 01:23:16,479 --> 01:23:19,960 Speaker 1: was way more like that. That boy is so sensitive 1454 01:23:20,080 --> 01:23:23,880 Speaker 1: and so reflective and so endearing and like so connected. 1455 01:23:24,400 --> 01:23:26,960 Speaker 1: He's just so sophisticated for his age, and he, like 1456 01:23:27,240 --> 01:23:30,800 Speaker 1: I think, could read my feelings and emotions and inevitably, 1457 01:23:30,840 --> 01:23:33,880 Speaker 1: like gut instinctually is like wanting to make me feel 1458 01:23:33,920 --> 01:23:38,040 Speaker 1: better and to like to help help help me understand 1459 01:23:38,040 --> 01:23:42,360 Speaker 1: that this is a common situation. But um, I definitely 1460 01:23:42,360 --> 01:23:44,160 Speaker 1: had an immediate reaction of like, no, I don't want 1461 01:23:44,160 --> 01:23:45,560 Speaker 1: to do it. I can't do it. I can't do it, 1462 01:23:45,640 --> 01:23:47,559 Speaker 1: can't do it, can't do it. I remember we had 1463 01:23:47,600 --> 01:23:49,479 Speaker 1: to tell you have to.

Um, 1628 01:32:31,000 --> 01:32:33,800 Speaker 1: but yeah, I just I loved it so much and 1629 01:32:33,840 --> 01:32:36,680 Speaker 1: so I was like, when can we go again? And we, um, 1630 01:32:36,760 --> 01:32:38,840 Speaker 1: you know, made it work right before Thanksgiving because I 1631 01:32:38,880 --> 01:32:40,479 Speaker 1: was the only other time that we could do. It 1632 01:32:40,520 --> 01:32:42,920 Speaker 1: almost came with me. I almost came with you guys, 1633 01:32:42,920 --> 01:32:44,439 Speaker 1: and I was like, I don't really think I want 1634 01:32:44,439 --> 01:32:47,599 Speaker 1: to hunt four days in a row, but yeah, quite yet, 1635 01:32:48,920 --> 01:32:53,559 Speaker 1: two days is enough. Cale talked about on Cal's Weekend review. 1636 01:32:53,680 --> 01:32:57,559 Speaker 1: Cal touched on Hunting with You, and Cal had a 1637 01:32:57,560 --> 01:33:01,439 Speaker 1: comment where, um, you saw all the importance of mentoring people, 1638 01:33:02,160 --> 01:33:06,559 Speaker 1: and he mentioned that he doesn't like when people say like, oh, 1639 01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:09,559 Speaker 1: I got him his first year. Yeah, he doesn't like 1640 01:33:09,640 --> 01:33:12,120 Speaker 1: that I got her her first year because I think 1641 01:33:12,280 --> 01:33:16,479 Speaker 1: I said that, Yeah he tried. He goes, you should 1642 01:33:16,479 --> 01:33:19,759 Speaker 1: probably be trying to create a scenario where someone feels 1643 01:33:19,800 --> 01:33:22,559 Speaker 1: like they got it, Which is true though, because you 1644 01:33:22,600 --> 01:33:25,360 Speaker 1: need to take full responsibility for that thing that you 1645 01:33:25,479 --> 01:33:28,400 Speaker 1: just shot, So you should always like, I think that's 1646 01:33:28,400 --> 01:33:30,439 Speaker 1: the right the right approach, Like I want to take 1647 01:33:30,479 --> 01:33:35,000 Speaker 1: full responsibility for it totally. Um. Anyway, so we went 1648 01:33:35,040 --> 01:33:39,559 Speaker 1: on that second um hunt in mid November, and we 1649 01:33:39,600 --> 01:33:43,800 Speaker 1: went over to like, I don't know honestly where we were, 1650 01:33:44,080 --> 01:33:46,680 Speaker 1: but we're on some BLM and state Land. It's like, 1651 01:33:46,960 --> 01:33:48,479 Speaker 1: but a blind bold on me and take me a 1652 01:33:48,479 --> 01:33:58,439 Speaker 1: middle nowhere in Canada. You're somewhere in Montana. Even if 1653 01:33:58,439 --> 01:34:01,960 Speaker 1: you know exactly, I like that appro yeah right, yeah, 1654 01:34:02,000 --> 01:34:05,080 Speaker 1: I really don't know. That's what I just kept telling people. 1655 01:34:05,520 --> 01:34:09,280 Speaker 1: Wanted to tell you, I couldn't, but I mean it 1656 01:34:09,400 --> 01:34:12,040 Speaker 1: was it was a great area. I mean that. So 1657 01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:14,000 Speaker 1: we like woke up whatever five in the morning. I 1658 01:34:14,000 --> 01:34:16,400 Speaker 1: guess what we're supposed to do. I want to go hunting. 1659 01:34:18,720 --> 01:34:23,439 Speaker 1: It was dark. Guy, I never actually ever saw the 1660 01:34:23,520 --> 01:34:25,920 Speaker 1: view from the truck because we were either waking up 1661 01:34:25,960 --> 01:34:30,000 Speaker 1: super early or getting back super late. So gorgeous there, 1662 01:34:30,120 --> 01:34:31,639 Speaker 1: but I don't know what the view from the chuck 1663 01:34:31,640 --> 01:34:34,599 Speaker 1: looked like. Like, so that's what this place looks like. 1664 01:34:35,520 --> 01:34:37,800 Speaker 1: I was like, man, I bet that's pretty up there 1665 01:34:37,840 --> 01:34:41,679 Speaker 1: from the truck. You mean at camp? Yeah, I camp, 1666 01:34:43,000 --> 01:34:48,439 Speaker 1: yeah every day, which was only two days, um and yeah, 1667 01:34:48,479 --> 01:34:51,880 Speaker 1: so he just got up. I mean it was pretty windy, 1668 01:34:51,960 --> 01:34:53,519 Speaker 1: but then once we got down in the valley it 1669 01:34:53,560 --> 01:34:55,840 Speaker 1: was fine. At one point Cal was like, hand me 1670 01:34:55,880 --> 01:34:57,680 Speaker 1: your gun and I was like okay, and he's and 1671 01:34:57,720 --> 01:35:00,240 Speaker 1: it's like dark, you know, and he's like, figure out 1672 01:35:00,240 --> 01:35:02,439 Speaker 1: how to get up this this cliff and I was like, 1673 01:35:02,479 --> 01:35:04,439 Speaker 1: what are you talking about? Like I can't even see 1674 01:35:04,520 --> 01:35:06,439 Speaker 1: what we're looking at, and so I'm like feeling around 1675 01:35:06,479 --> 01:35:09,200 Speaker 1: blindly and I finally find some sort of like stick 1676 01:35:09,240 --> 01:35:11,080 Speaker 1: thing and I get myself up there and it's like, okay, 1677 01:35:11,080 --> 01:35:12,639 Speaker 1: now you can get up here with both the guns. 1678 01:35:13,360 --> 01:35:18,160 Speaker 1: Like um, but yeah, we're just you know, hiking up 1679 01:35:18,200 --> 01:35:23,640 Speaker 1: and down everywhere. I don't know. And that first day, um, 1680 01:35:23,760 --> 01:35:26,360 Speaker 1: we saw I mean we saw a ton of deer 1681 01:35:26,400 --> 01:35:29,080 Speaker 1: first of all, like so many deer, a lot of bucks, 1682 01:35:29,080 --> 01:35:31,759 Speaker 1: a lot of four keys, and we're kind of watching 1683 01:35:31,760 --> 01:35:34,320 Speaker 1: this one specific bull but he was on private. I 1684 01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:36,880 Speaker 1: don't know why we just watched him for a while. 1685 01:35:37,840 --> 01:35:40,479 Speaker 1: I'm sorry buck, Yeah, um, I don't know why we 1686 01:35:40,520 --> 01:35:43,600 Speaker 1: watched him for so long. He was well yeah, so 1687 01:35:43,680 --> 01:35:46,120 Speaker 1: Cal like left me to watch these two bucks. He 1688 01:35:46,160 --> 01:35:49,680 Speaker 1: went to go poop and then and he was like, 1689 01:35:50,040 --> 01:35:52,080 Speaker 1: oh my god, we gotta go find this guy. And 1690 01:35:52,120 --> 01:35:54,400 Speaker 1: I was like okay, and so like we go and 1691 01:35:54,400 --> 01:35:58,800 Speaker 1: watch this guy. He's like telling me to like this buck, sorry, 1692 01:35:59,160 --> 01:36:05,559 Speaker 1: this ale Neil dear and so we're looking at him, 1693 01:36:05,600 --> 01:36:09,080 Speaker 1: and the worst part that was Cal's calls like, Okay, 1694 01:36:09,200 --> 01:36:11,280 Speaker 1: now you gotta go down there and you gotta find 1695 01:36:11,280 --> 01:36:13,760 Speaker 1: a better position to go watch him. So like I 1696 01:36:13,800 --> 01:36:15,519 Speaker 1: go and do this, and then he follows me, like, 1697 01:36:15,600 --> 01:36:17,280 Speaker 1: you know, ten minutes later, he's like, you did that 1698 01:36:17,360 --> 01:36:21,120 Speaker 1: all wrong. I'm like, yeah, I know, like I am 1699 01:36:21,240 --> 01:36:24,000 Speaker 1: horrible at sneaking. I don't understand it. It's not my blood. 1700 01:36:24,040 --> 01:36:25,720 Speaker 1: I just like I'm just kind of like this is 1701 01:36:25,720 --> 01:36:27,759 Speaker 1: really like I feel like this is like role playing 1702 01:36:27,840 --> 01:36:31,840 Speaker 1: right now and just like not good at it. Um 1703 01:36:31,880 --> 01:36:33,920 Speaker 1: But you know, eventually, I mean we end up calling 1704 01:36:33,920 --> 01:36:35,920 Speaker 1: that guy dick head because he just did not get 1705 01:36:35,920 --> 01:36:38,599 Speaker 1: off private land. He was like obsessed with this one 1706 01:36:38,680 --> 01:36:41,080 Speaker 1: lady who was just doing whatever she felt like doing. 1707 01:36:41,080 --> 01:36:43,719 Speaker 1: I don't know, she had her own, you know, game plan, 1708 01:36:44,400 --> 01:36:48,080 Speaker 1: and so she was not putting out she did not 1709 01:36:48,720 --> 01:36:51,720 Speaker 1: and um so Cal kind of like wandered off for 1710 01:36:51,760 --> 01:37:00,400 Speaker 1: a while, and problem I think he was fine. I 1711 01:37:00,479 --> 01:37:02,880 Speaker 1: don't know, very regular out there. Did you guys have 1712 01:37:02,920 --> 01:37:04,880 Speaker 1: taco bell like we did the night before we went 1713 01:37:04,880 --> 01:37:07,400 Speaker 1: out and was driving and pulling over and throwing up 1714 01:37:09,760 --> 01:37:18,959 Speaker 1: did yeah, yeah, the guy would be last. I honestly 1715 01:37:19,000 --> 01:37:21,599 Speaker 1: don't even remember what we ate. But he was fine. 1716 01:37:21,640 --> 01:37:24,640 Speaker 1: He's just going off doing little errands looking around. He 1717 01:37:24,720 --> 01:37:28,120 Speaker 1: was very healthy, very regular. Anyways. Yeah, and then he 1718 01:37:28,479 --> 01:37:30,960 Speaker 1: came back and was like, oh, let's go this way. 1719 01:37:31,000 --> 01:37:32,920 Speaker 1: I don't know why I'm whispering, Let's go this way. 1720 01:37:33,560 --> 01:37:36,440 Speaker 1: There's a bunch of like you're back in the moment. Yeah, 1721 01:37:37,439 --> 01:37:40,040 Speaker 1: deer out in this one. I don't know, some other 1722 01:37:40,120 --> 01:37:43,479 Speaker 1: area behind us. And so we like left our bags 1723 01:37:43,520 --> 01:37:46,120 Speaker 1: and every like we literally left everything. Never leave your bag. 1724 01:37:46,280 --> 01:37:49,280 Speaker 1: Never dropped the pack, no apocalypse now, never leave the boat. 1725 01:37:49,720 --> 01:37:54,479 Speaker 1: You've been just you can lame this on cal Okay, never. 1726 01:37:55,200 --> 01:37:56,800 Speaker 1: I'm just telling you, I don't care what he does. 1727 01:37:57,680 --> 01:38:03,600 Speaker 1: Never leave your bag. Okay, moving on the rationale for 1728 01:38:03,720 --> 01:38:10,160 Speaker 1: that one thing. The moment I left my bag and 1729 01:38:10,200 --> 01:38:14,520 Speaker 1: I didn't have everything that, yeah, they're like, oh, in fact, 1730 01:38:14,520 --> 01:38:17,640 Speaker 1: moved again. Yeah, totally. And then you don't get a 1731 01:38:17,640 --> 01:38:20,040 Speaker 1: good hit on it. And then a lady you're like, oh, 1732 01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:21,840 Speaker 1: here comes a little rain squad. I wish I had 1733 01:38:21,840 --> 01:38:24,559 Speaker 1: my rain jack. Or it's like two in the morning 1734 01:38:24,640 --> 01:38:29,280 Speaker 1: and you finally find it. That's totally accurate, and it 1735 01:38:29,360 --> 01:38:33,000 Speaker 1: was like I think it was some bipod with me. 1736 01:38:33,160 --> 01:38:34,880 Speaker 1: So it was just like once, but it was kind 1737 01:38:34,880 --> 01:38:36,280 Speaker 1: of like I said, it was kind of fun though, 1738 01:38:36,320 --> 01:38:38,640 Speaker 1: because we went to this one in area. There's like 1739 01:38:38,720 --> 01:38:41,599 Speaker 1: tons of juniper around and we were like in the 1740 01:38:41,640 --> 01:38:45,200 Speaker 1: trees and we were sneaking up on um just like 1741 01:38:45,240 --> 01:38:47,080 Speaker 1: I said, tons of deer, tons of does and a 1742 01:38:47,120 --> 01:38:49,479 Speaker 1: few four keys and so we're looking at them through 1743 01:38:49,479 --> 01:38:52,000 Speaker 1: the trees and he's like, okay, like I want you 1744 01:38:52,040 --> 01:38:55,280 Speaker 1: to look at that for ky and you know, see 1745 01:38:55,280 --> 01:38:57,400 Speaker 1: if you can get a good position. And so we 1746 01:38:57,479 --> 01:39:01,320 Speaker 1: practice a lot of different positions like prone on a tree, 1747 01:39:01,360 --> 01:39:05,800 Speaker 1: limb again on some juniper, which is all amazing. And 1748 01:39:06,000 --> 01:39:09,480 Speaker 1: I just never felt comfortable in any of the positions 1749 01:39:09,560 --> 01:39:12,599 Speaker 1: at all. And Um he was just like, yeah, that's good, 1750 01:39:12,680 --> 01:39:14,960 Speaker 1: just like you like are just like kind of learning 1751 01:39:15,160 --> 01:39:19,120 Speaker 1: and knowing that this isn't the right time or moment whatever. 1752 01:39:19,320 --> 01:39:23,559 Speaker 1: He didn't say what's the problem name, No, he didn't. 1753 01:39:23,600 --> 01:39:26,800 Speaker 1: He was very patient. Was there ever any impatience? Um, 1754 01:39:28,000 --> 01:39:31,960 Speaker 1: maybe on my end, but not really on his. I 1755 01:39:32,080 --> 01:39:35,840 Speaker 1: know for a fact that Joe Frigno, Joe Ferronado had 1756 01:39:36,040 --> 01:39:40,599 Speaker 1: feelings of impatience, lots of them. That was a squirrelingwithstanding 1757 01:39:41,800 --> 01:39:45,519 Speaker 1: and didn't communicate. He communicated them to me, but he 1758 01:39:45,640 --> 01:39:50,240 Speaker 1: also last night he communicated them to me too, immediately after, 1759 01:39:52,600 --> 01:39:57,479 Speaker 1: but he didn't say, what's the problem. He didn't I think, 1760 01:39:57,479 --> 01:40:08,439 Speaker 1: I say, what exactly is the problem? We know the problem? 1761 01:40:10,080 --> 01:40:16,280 Speaker 1: What exactly? So he had you like, so, let me 1762 01:40:16,280 --> 01:40:19,519 Speaker 1: get this straight. You see a forky and you guys 1763 01:40:19,560 --> 01:40:22,840 Speaker 1: are trophy hunting, so you're just practiced, you're driving trophy hunting. 1764 01:40:22,840 --> 01:40:25,920 Speaker 1: We're just hunting at this point because I don't know so, 1765 01:40:26,960 --> 01:40:29,760 Speaker 1: but why were you not the forky you were looking at? You? 1766 01:40:29,800 --> 01:40:32,160 Speaker 1: Were you had intent to kill the forky? Yeah? Okay, 1767 01:40:32,200 --> 01:40:34,840 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Yeah, Yeah, it's just I just didn't feel 1768 01:40:34,960 --> 01:40:37,280 Speaker 1: comfortable and like he was moving a lot. He was 1769 01:40:37,360 --> 01:40:39,840 Speaker 1: following another lady and they were going everywhere, and I 1770 01:40:40,360 --> 01:40:42,519 Speaker 1: just I just so the intent was to get him, yes, 1771 01:40:42,720 --> 01:40:44,120 Speaker 1: but you couldn't get it you could get it done. 1772 01:40:44,160 --> 01:40:46,120 Speaker 1: Didn't feel as our bear hunter friend said, you could 1773 01:40:46,120 --> 01:40:48,439 Speaker 1: not get it done, could not get it done. And 1774 01:40:48,800 --> 01:40:50,760 Speaker 1: that was kind of the end of that day. So 1775 01:40:50,800 --> 01:40:54,839 Speaker 1: then come the night, were you disappointed? Were you like, oh, bummer, 1776 01:40:55,360 --> 01:40:57,799 Speaker 1: you know, The only reason why I felt a little 1777 01:40:57,840 --> 01:41:01,040 Speaker 1: disappointed is because I wanted Hole to go hunting the 1778 01:41:01,080 --> 01:41:04,320 Speaker 1: next day and the next because the first day he 1779 01:41:04,360 --> 01:41:07,680 Speaker 1: brought his gun, I think he had was like on 1780 01:41:07,720 --> 01:41:11,679 Speaker 1: a trip right before that.

I gotta kind of set up 1843 01:44:55,040 --> 01:44:58,040 Speaker 1: on this dough that was standing stick on this mountain side, 1844 01:44:58,800 --> 01:45:01,640 Speaker 1: and that was great. She was staying there for like 1845 01:45:01,680 --> 01:45:04,240 Speaker 1: ten minutes and I was laying there prone and I 1846 01:45:04,320 --> 01:45:06,320 Speaker 1: was like, okay, I could have shot the dickens out 1847 01:45:06,320 --> 01:45:09,280 Speaker 1: of her.

Um. 1852 01:45:23,360 --> 01:45:25,320 Speaker 1: And then the buck came out and he was moving 1853 01:45:25,400 --> 01:45:27,960 Speaker 1: and I didn't feel comfortable. But then right behind us 1854 01:45:28,000 --> 01:45:29,600 Speaker 1: was another buck that came out, so it's like we 1855 01:45:29,640 --> 01:45:33,479 Speaker 1: whipped around, turned around. I got ready to shoot that one, 1856 01:45:33,760 --> 01:45:38,160 Speaker 1: and I, um, you know how it's like safety and 1857 01:45:38,200 --> 01:45:41,799 Speaker 1: then there was that middle thing and then it's fire safety. 1858 01:45:42,000 --> 01:45:44,240 Speaker 1: So I thought I had put it all the way 1859 01:45:44,320 --> 01:45:45,559 Speaker 1: up to fire and I only got it up to 1860 01:45:45,600 --> 01:45:47,479 Speaker 1: that middle port because I went to go shoot and 1861 01:45:48,080 --> 01:45:51,519 Speaker 1: nothing happened.

And that would have been a 1864 01:45:59,080 --> 01:46:02,640 Speaker 1: great one because it was about ten am. Shut up 1865 01:46:03,160 --> 01:46:04,920 Speaker 1: at ten am, and it would have been nice if 1866 01:46:04,960 --> 01:46:06,280 Speaker 1: I had gotten that one, because then I could have 1867 01:46:06,320 --> 01:46:08,559 Speaker 1: probably done the whole like cutting it up and learned 1868 01:46:08,600 --> 01:46:11,320 Speaker 1: all of that. But that didn't happen, so we kind 1869 01:46:11,360 --> 01:46:13,080 Speaker 1: of had to keep hunting for the rest of the day. 1870 01:46:13,439 --> 01:46:15,639 Speaker 1: And it wasn't until the very last hour of light. 1871 01:46:16,200 --> 01:46:17,639 Speaker 1: And let me tell you a lot of other things 1872 01:46:17,640 --> 01:46:19,120 Speaker 1: are going on a lot of other bucks, a lot 1873 01:46:19,120 --> 01:46:21,800 Speaker 1: of other shooting situations that we tried for.

No, I was in denial 1945 01:50:28,479 --> 01:50:29,920 Speaker 1: that it was my dear and you know, what I 1946 01:50:29,960 --> 01:50:32,880 Speaker 1: told Mark Kenyon this you thought someone else got it?

This isn't my dear, but you're only forty 1949 01:50:37,479 --> 01:50:40,280 Speaker 1: yards away from it. I don't understand why I felt 1950 01:50:40,280 --> 01:50:41,960 Speaker 1: this space to even I'm not trying to make sense 1951 01:50:41,960 --> 01:50:45,040 Speaker 1: of it. But no, Mark Kenyon said, he said he 1952 01:50:45,160 --> 01:50:47,400 Speaker 1: felt the same exact thing. He was like, no, it's 1953 01:50:47,439 --> 01:50:49,680 Speaker 1: not my dear.

You had a that there must be another 1957 01:51:01,880 --> 01:51:06,640 Speaker 1: explanation for this deer laying right by where I just 1958 01:51:06,800 --> 01:51:12,160 Speaker 1: shot at a deer. Yes, I'm okay, so let me 1959 01:51:12,160 --> 01:51:14,840 Speaker 1: tell you. He someone I've never had someone expresses to me. 1960 01:51:15,040 --> 01:51:17,920 Speaker 1: So I shot him.

But you 2102 01:59:21,240 --> 01:59:23,640 Speaker 1: have to be real careful because if you over dried them, 2103 01:59:23,680 --> 01:59:26,240 Speaker 1: you know, you just did it just wasn't edible at all. 2104 01:59:26,840 --> 01:59:29,400 Speaker 1: But then sometimes I'd have them in my pack for 2105 01:59:29,440 --> 01:59:30,840 Speaker 1: like a week and you pull them out and you 2106 01:59:30,840 --> 01:59:33,360 Speaker 1: realize that you didn't actually dry all everything out that 2107 01:59:33,440 --> 01:59:35,120 Speaker 1: needed to come out, you know, so you have like 2108 01:59:35,120 --> 01:59:39,440 Speaker 1: a little just a little pungent smell in there. The 2109 01:59:39,560 --> 01:59:41,720 Speaker 1: clients would be like, are you sure this is okay 2110 01:59:41,720 --> 01:59:47,720 Speaker 1: to eat? Well? One thing about when you do with grain, 2111 01:59:48,160 --> 01:59:51,600 Speaker 1: with grain cut and you're drying it, don't dry it 2112 01:59:51,680 --> 01:59:54,120 Speaker 1: so much that it snaps what you want to do 2113 01:59:54,320 --> 01:59:57,400 Speaker 1: is dry it till when you bend it you'll see 2114 01:59:57,560 --> 02:00:02,920 Speaker 1: little white filaments. Okay, you bend it, there's white filaments 2115 02:00:03,040 --> 02:00:07,760 Speaker 1: and no snap. That's what you're after when you do 2116 02:00:08,040 --> 02:00:10,000 Speaker 1: cross green. I don't know what what's your indicator when 2117 02:00:10,000 --> 02:00:13,440 Speaker 1: you cross green, it's similar you kind of banded. It 2118 02:00:13,520 --> 02:00:16,360 Speaker 1: shouldn't go like if it snaps like a chip, that's 2119 02:00:16,360 --> 02:00:18,240 Speaker 1: not good. Yeah. And the only thing I find a 2120 02:00:18,240 --> 02:00:22,360 Speaker 1: lot of people screw up is um, there's jerky and 2121 02:00:22,400 --> 02:00:25,120 Speaker 1: then there's cooked meat. And I've had a lot of 2122 02:00:25,160 --> 02:00:30,640 Speaker 1: guys give me jerky. That's not jerky. It's like roasted. 2123 02:00:31,400 --> 02:00:34,400 Speaker 1: It's just different. You know what I'm saying. It's just different. Man. 2124 02:00:35,040 --> 02:00:37,600 Speaker 1: I've eaten many pounds of it, and I've made many 2125 02:00:37,600 --> 02:00:40,400 Speaker 1: pounds of it, which is like it's just like yeah, 2126 02:00:40,400 --> 02:00:45,480 Speaker 1: you kind of cooked little thin. Yeah, but just like 2127 02:00:45,880 --> 02:00:50,040 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, it's just not jerky's. These 2128 02:00:50,040 --> 02:00:52,880 Speaker 1: are all very useful tips things. Guys. You get that 2129 02:00:52,880 --> 02:00:54,440 Speaker 1: when you do in your oven and when you're doing 2130 02:00:54,520 --> 02:00:55,880 Speaker 1: your smoke or you know what I mean, Like, am 2131 02:00:55,880 --> 02:00:58,840 Speaker 1: I describing it right? Yeah? Yeah, I mean there's a 2132 02:00:58,960 --> 02:01:04,840 Speaker 1: big difference. And you know it dried meat and cook meat. Um, 2133 02:01:04,920 --> 02:01:08,040 Speaker 1: so is Katie going to go out with cal She 2134 02:01:08,080 --> 02:01:14,440 Speaker 1: doesn't want to hold me. I really understand. It's insulting 2135 02:01:14,480 --> 02:01:16,440 Speaker 1: to me. We're talking about my wife. It's insulting to me, 2136 02:01:16,480 --> 02:01:18,600 Speaker 1: and I don't really understand it. I don't think it's 2137 02:01:18,600 --> 02:01:21,320 Speaker 1: a good idea for two people who are in that 2138 02:01:21,400 --> 02:01:24,680 Speaker 1: close of a relationship where you are the expert and 2139 02:01:24,720 --> 02:01:28,240 Speaker 1: the other person is the novice beginner and it's like 2140 02:01:28,280 --> 02:01:32,240 Speaker 1: a personal relationship. I think that's a terrible idea. I 2141 02:01:32,240 --> 02:01:34,080 Speaker 1: don't think it has anything to do with you, Steve. 2142 02:01:34,160 --> 02:01:36,520 Speaker 1: I think it has to do with the fact that 2143 02:01:36,520 --> 02:01:42,400 Speaker 1: that dynamic would be challenging. Couldn't disagree more. It's tough 2144 02:01:42,440 --> 02:01:44,880 Speaker 1: because you think that people in relationship that should be 2145 02:01:44,920 --> 02:01:51,000 Speaker 1: able to overcome whatever we've had. We've had three kids, Sure, 2146 02:01:51,160 --> 02:01:54,440 Speaker 1: you married eleven years. What's going to ruin at all? 2147 02:01:55,800 --> 02:01:59,760 Speaker 1: It's not about at all. It's about having a different 2148 02:02:00,280 --> 02:02:02,360 Speaker 1: of patience. I mean, even when I was learning to 2149 02:02:02,440 --> 02:02:05,480 Speaker 1: fly fish and Jeremiah would teach me there's a block. 2150 02:02:06,000 --> 02:02:09,520 Speaker 1: You don't want to be open minded to your significant other. 2151 02:02:09,720 --> 02:02:16,320 Speaker 1: Who So that's that's what I'm talking about. Yeah, Like 2152 02:02:16,360 --> 02:02:18,320 Speaker 1: we're like we're married, but in a lot of ways 2153 02:02:18,360 --> 02:02:25,920 Speaker 1: we're like enemies. Is married enemies? Where should we put um? 2154 02:02:27,000 --> 02:02:29,440 Speaker 1: Like I recently got that fifty pound block of lard, 2155 02:02:30,400 --> 02:02:32,640 Speaker 1: my fifty pound box a blard.

She just can't picture it being gone, 2160 02:02:47,760 --> 02:02:49,600 Speaker 1: so she suggested I moved it to the place I 2161 02:02:49,640 --> 02:02:55,280 Speaker 1: don't want to have it.

I don't know, just kind of, Oh, 2261 02:08:05,760 --> 02:08:08,560 Speaker 1: he just got it out of the way. Nothing to 2262 02:08:08,560 --> 02:08:12,200 Speaker 1: fight about it. You has fought it all out. Now 2263 02:08:12,240 --> 02:08:17,400 Speaker 1: you're just like every news resolved, the lard goes over there. 2264 02:08:19,040 --> 02:08:23,040 Speaker 1: There's something to be said for that. What's that? My 2265 02:08:23,120 --> 02:08:26,240 Speaker 1: father in law recently, it wasn't recent, maybe a year 2266 02:08:26,280 --> 02:08:28,520 Speaker 1: ago now, but I remember him telling my daughter. She 2267 02:08:28,680 --> 02:08:31,480 Speaker 1: was asking she had somehow noticed something about his lack 2268 02:08:31,560 --> 02:08:35,840 Speaker 1: of anger with people whatever, and he was just telling 2269 02:08:35,880 --> 02:08:38,640 Speaker 1: her about how in his age, he's sort of just 2270 02:08:38,760 --> 02:08:43,440 Speaker 1: like giving up on fighting the Randy Randy Newbert piece 2271 02:08:43,520 --> 02:08:46,000 Speaker 1: not justice, yeah, but not necessarily with his wife, just 2272 02:08:46,040 --> 02:08:48,640 Speaker 1: like with anybody in life. He's just like, I just 2273 02:08:48,680 --> 02:08:51,040 Speaker 1: don't have time to do that, and he's just taking like, 2274 02:08:51,320 --> 02:08:57,640 Speaker 1: oh is that right? Yeah, you don't say um piece 2275 02:08:57,760 --> 02:09:00,760 Speaker 1: not justice thing though. That's that's I don't know if 2276 02:09:00,760 --> 02:09:02,680 Speaker 1: he wrote that. I made that up, but he introduced 2277 02:09:02,720 --> 02:09:06,600 Speaker 1: me to that idea. Like obviously sometimes strangled my wife, 2278 02:09:06,640 --> 02:09:08,680 Speaker 1: you know, and I'll just be like just snuggle up instead. 2279 02:09:11,480 --> 02:09:19,320 Speaker 1: How who cares? Then? I was gonna strangle you about. 2280 02:09:22,200 --> 02:09:25,840 Speaker 1: So he's a good dude. Good dude. And then on 2281 02:09:26,200 --> 02:09:30,040 Speaker 1: Saturday night, right before like season end, and Sunday, Saturday 2282 02:09:30,120 --> 02:09:32,520 Speaker 1: night at five o'clock at night, it's going it's dark, 2283 02:09:32,680 --> 02:09:36,120 Speaker 1: like Sam had um, it's negative degrees and what do 2284 02:09:36,160 --> 02:09:37,840 Speaker 1: you know, it's the last day of the season. Yeah. 2285 02:09:38,240 --> 02:09:45,680 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, So I talked about across there's a creek 2286 02:09:45,720 --> 02:09:47,600 Speaker 1: and we saw like I looked over and in the 2287 02:09:47,640 --> 02:09:50,080 Speaker 1: fog there was a couple of different deer and I 2288 02:09:50,120 --> 02:09:52,080 Speaker 1: saw dough and I saw a buck as just a 2289 02:09:52,120 --> 02:09:57,000 Speaker 1: small little buck um. And I didn't like usually I 2290 02:09:57,080 --> 02:09:59,240 Speaker 1: was like really hesitant beforehand, and this was just such 2291 02:09:59,280 --> 02:10:03,600 Speaker 1: a very perfect, like normal feeling. Um. And then I 2292 02:10:03,640 --> 02:10:07,080 Speaker 1: shot and I saw some like go like move, so 2293 02:10:07,120 --> 02:10:09,720 Speaker 1: I didn't think I shot it um. And then my 2294 02:10:09,840 --> 02:10:13,640 Speaker 1: husband actually I got lost there, so I like I 2295 02:10:13,680 --> 02:10:16,520 Speaker 1: saw them across the creek in the fog, and I shot, 2296 02:10:17,200 --> 02:10:20,000 Speaker 1: and then okay, I need more details. He is your 2297 02:10:20,040 --> 02:10:23,640 Speaker 1: husband watching too, Yeah, but there was he didn't have 2298 02:10:23,640 --> 02:10:25,720 Speaker 1: any feedback for you know, there was oh yeah, there 2299 02:10:25,760 --> 02:10:28,000 Speaker 1: was a couple of deer, like we didn't know behind 2300 02:10:28,680 --> 02:10:31,080 Speaker 1: that it was all foggy. So I just saw the 2301 02:10:31,160 --> 02:10:33,960 Speaker 1: one buck and I shot. But then when we when 2302 02:10:34,000 --> 02:10:37,360 Speaker 1: I shot, it was like all the other deer. Oh yeah, 2303 02:10:37,360 --> 02:10:38,600 Speaker 1: I know what you're saying. So then it's hard to 2304 02:10:38,600 --> 02:10:41,160 Speaker 1: tell what exactly I'm with you. So then he ran 2305 02:10:41,280 --> 02:10:43,760 Speaker 1: over across the creek, and then I didn't think I 2306 02:10:43,840 --> 02:10:46,200 Speaker 1: hit it, and then um, he ran over to investigate. 2307 02:10:46,480 --> 02:10:48,720 Speaker 1: And then I got it so right in the lungs, 2308 02:10:48,800 --> 02:10:53,280 Speaker 1: which was perfect of exactly what I wanted it. And 2309 02:10:53,360 --> 02:10:56,560 Speaker 1: then he carried it, carried it over because he drained 2310 02:10:56,560 --> 02:10:59,360 Speaker 1: it back across the creek, and I wanted to same 2311 02:10:59,400 --> 02:11:01,240 Speaker 1: exactly a and like I wanted to be able to 2312 02:11:01,280 --> 02:11:03,680 Speaker 1: gut it um and go through that. I watched it, 2313 02:11:03,760 --> 02:11:05,840 Speaker 1: but because it was dark, I mean he had the 2314 02:11:06,040 --> 02:11:08,280 Speaker 1: you know light on, I mean it was I didn't 2315 02:11:08,320 --> 02:11:13,440 Speaker 1: feel comfortable. Temperature. Not great learning, but next time I 2316 02:11:13,480 --> 02:11:15,840 Speaker 1: would like to learn next time for sure, any emotions 2317 02:11:16,480 --> 02:11:21,640 Speaker 1: just before just I think just when shooting and not 2318 02:11:21,640 --> 02:11:23,680 Speaker 1: not being able to for sure, I think, yeah, I 2319 02:11:23,680 --> 02:11:25,680 Speaker 1: think that first time that you went out, you had 2320 02:11:26,360 --> 02:11:29,200 Speaker 1: very frustrated, Like she texted me and she was just like, 2321 02:11:29,440 --> 02:11:32,720 Speaker 1: I can't believe I didn't shoot it, and I won't 2322 02:11:32,800 --> 02:11:35,520 Speaker 1: take that for the next time because you will. Yeah, 2323 02:11:36,840 --> 02:11:39,960 Speaker 1: like you had like later you you thought to yourself 2324 02:11:40,040 --> 02:11:42,440 Speaker 1: like that was a great opportunity. I blew it and yeah, 2325 02:11:42,520 --> 02:11:44,480 Speaker 1: I mean it was literally like I was looking straight 2326 02:11:44,520 --> 02:11:46,720 Speaker 1: at him right in the scope. He was huge. I mean, 2327 02:11:46,760 --> 02:11:48,760 Speaker 1: it was just that he was just staring at me, 2328 02:11:48,840 --> 02:11:50,640 Speaker 1: and I couldn't for the life when we do it 2329 02:11:51,160 --> 02:11:54,520 Speaker 1: no idea. Why so, Um, did you guys bring into 2330 02:11:54,560 --> 02:11:58,560 Speaker 1: a processor? Yep, so you gotta get it out and 2331 02:11:58,600 --> 02:12:00,560 Speaker 1: then so we're just waiting for it to process and 2332 02:12:00,600 --> 02:12:02,240 Speaker 1: you go pick it up. Do you guys eat a 2333 02:12:02,240 --> 02:12:04,520 Speaker 1: lot of dear meat? Because he also, yeah, I used 2334 02:12:04,560 --> 02:12:07,360 Speaker 1: to do a lot a lot of elk meat. Okay, yeah, 2335 02:12:07,400 --> 02:12:11,520 Speaker 1: so game meat. So your husband likes to hunt elk any, 2336 02:12:11,600 --> 02:12:13,680 Speaker 1: I mean yeah, he's did it. Um, he grew up 2337 02:12:13,720 --> 02:12:18,080 Speaker 1: with it for doing all dear anything from here, so 2338 02:12:18,120 --> 02:12:22,160 Speaker 1: he's probably got a long tradition of it. And then, um, 2339 02:12:22,720 --> 02:12:24,160 Speaker 1: you you can eat it right away or like he'll 2340 02:12:24,160 --> 02:12:26,400 Speaker 1: take a year to eat it.

Have you think about doing some hunters safety? Yeah? No, 2498 02:21:21,560 --> 02:21:23,560 Speaker 1: I think I think Ben, Ben, Ben and I are 2499 02:21:23,600 --> 02:21:26,800 Speaker 1: going to do some stuff next year. So what do 2500 02:21:26,840 --> 02:21:29,320 Speaker 1: you do the hunter safety soon? I think in the 2501 02:21:29,320 --> 02:21:31,879 Speaker 1: next couple of months, hopefully if we can find a 2502 02:21:32,360 --> 02:21:35,039 Speaker 1: there's a field day component that sounds like a lot 2503 02:21:35,040 --> 02:21:38,280 Speaker 1: of fun. That's not a requirement, which okay, I didn't 2504 02:21:38,280 --> 02:21:41,800 Speaker 1: mind all in one day. Oh no, the field day 2505 02:21:41,879 --> 02:21:49,400 Speaker 1: is not required. So I think when I'm gonna throw 2506 02:21:49,440 --> 02:21:51,360 Speaker 1: out on the table right now, is um should we 2507 02:21:51,400 --> 02:21:54,600 Speaker 1: take bets on if Ben is going to be a 2508 02:21:56,200 --> 02:22:00,960 Speaker 1: take your time or exactly what's the pro I think 2509 02:22:00,959 --> 02:22:04,480 Speaker 1: you'll be worse than Steve. I think so I'm gonna 2510 02:22:04,520 --> 02:22:07,360 Speaker 1: put my money on the most patient. I think Ben 2511 02:22:07,440 --> 02:22:11,520 Speaker 1: is like, well, I've hunted with Bend until it's on. 2512 02:22:12,840 --> 02:22:14,520 Speaker 1: He might have a little bit of a problem, like 2513 02:22:15,240 --> 02:22:17,480 Speaker 1: we're going turkey hunting, he might shoot the turkey that 2514 02:22:17,760 --> 02:22:22,640 Speaker 1: you might want to shoot. Yeah, this sounds a little 2515 02:22:22,680 --> 02:22:29,959 Speaker 1: too specific. Patient, say you're spot anyway, so you'll do 2516 02:22:30,040 --> 02:22:33,120 Speaker 1: hunter safety and you you'll get after it in the spring. Yeah, 2517 02:22:33,400 --> 02:22:35,640 Speaker 1: I think so. I think that's a plan. I think 2518 02:22:35,680 --> 02:22:39,680 Speaker 1: turkeys are an awesome way to immerse yourself into this world. 2519 02:22:40,240 --> 02:22:43,240 Speaker 1: I feel grateful that that was my first introduction.
