We'll just go with it. 0:02:03.960 --> 0:02:08.880 And last, but not least, we have miss River Newcomb. 0:02:08.919 --> 0:02:12.000 We are outnumbered by Newcombs today everywhere. 0:02:12.400 --> 0:02:14.800 And you really you missed an important. 0:02:14.880 --> 0:02:16.880 Oh that's right down on the floor here we got. 0:02:18.960 --> 0:02:22.720 I am. I am hoping that. Uh today we're going 0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:26.440 to have a little bit of sibling rivalry on the podcast, 0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:29.639 a little like straightening out, like when Bear tells the 0:02:29.680 --> 0:02:30.720 story River will be here. 0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:35.000 Correct, that's not yeah, that's everyone. That's everyone's favorite thing 0:02:35.000 --> 0:02:41.600 to listen to. It's your details. Actually it's not. I 0:02:41.639 --> 0:02:44.720 was actually thinking, will they fight because these two I 0:02:44.880 --> 0:02:49.320 don't really. So there's four new kids. 0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:50.359 These are the two middle ones. 0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:52.359 These are these are middle children. 0:02:52.320 --> 0:02:53.120 Middle and best? 0:02:55.680 --> 0:02:58.000 Wait a minute, is it go ahead? Was that for 0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:00.200 both of you? Middle and best? Or is one of the. 0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:04.919 If you guys ever noticed that that when Clay talks 0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:08.440 about the birth order of his kids. He always says, 0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:11.800 my middle daughter, River. Have you noticed that, not my 0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:15.399 youngest daughter, River. I always wondered about that. 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:21.200 Because I'm the middle but maybe a counseling session younger. 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:22.680 Daughter and an older son and a younger son. But 0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:23.799 he always says my middle daughter. 0:03:25.200 --> 0:03:28.040 I've never noticed that either. It would be weird to 0:03:28.080 --> 0:03:30.880 call River young. It's kind of interesting because we had 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:35.040 two girls and two boys and four kids in five 0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:37.080 and a half years. That was the like Willow was 0:03:37.120 --> 0:03:38.680 five and a half years old when Champ was born. 0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:42.000 So it's not like any of them are massively spaced apart, 0:03:42.240 --> 0:03:45.880 but Willow and River were just really close together. And 0:03:47.000 --> 0:03:49.880 our life, like we moved here where we live now, 0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:54.240 the Newcombe Farm when the girls were babies, and I 0:03:54.320 --> 0:03:56.520 was I was pregnant with bear when we bought this 0:03:56.800 --> 0:04:01.240 piece of land, and and and so there's kind of 0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:03.960 like in the Newcombe family, there's this first five years 0:04:03.960 --> 0:04:07.040 and the girls were apart of both of them, you know, 0:04:07.120 --> 0:04:08.960 about three of those years. And so there's kind of 0:04:08.960 --> 0:04:13.080 like the first era, you know, the prequel to the 0:04:13.120 --> 0:04:14.920 Newcomb Farm, and the girls were part of that. And 0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:17.640 then there was when we all moved out here and 0:04:17.760 --> 0:04:20.520 the boys. The boys came after. And so even though 0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:23.240 they're super close together, it is kind of like River 0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:24.640 and Willow are the oldest kids. 0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:28.560 They're they're collectively the oldest kids. Yeah. Well, the one 0:04:28.640 --> 0:04:31.080 Newcomb who is absent today is mister Clay Newcomb. He 0:04:31.400 --> 0:04:32.560 is currently in. 0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:35.760 Alaska, rained in currently. 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:40.040 Yeah, unfortunately, Yeah, he hadn't heard today. 0:04:40.440 --> 0:04:42.840 He said yesterday that it was clear and they were 0:04:43.480 --> 0:04:44.640 they stalked one. 0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:47.719 But he's hunting a mountain goat. 0:04:47.640 --> 0:04:51.279 Yep, And yeah, he said he they put a stalk 0:04:51.320 --> 0:04:53.719 on one but didn't get it. He said it's going 0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:57.120 to be really tough. But he said that pretty much 0:04:57.240 --> 0:05:00.840 like with the goat costume that he So. 0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:05.640 I think we need to visit this. Yeah, soture. 0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:10.920 This was in we just got I just got home 0:05:10.960 --> 0:05:13.720 from from Bozeman. We had some meetings up there, and 0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:16.280 Clay went to Alaska from Bozeman. 0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:20.000 Well, they we roomed together, and. 0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:24.960 The morning before he pulled this out. 0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:27.120 He walked around the corner of me and Tony Petershom 0:05:27.120 --> 0:05:29.520 was sitting in there talking, we're facing to go eat supper, 0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:33.040 and he walked around the corner and had this on 0:05:33.080 --> 0:05:33.520 his head. 0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:39.000 So about three weeks ago, Clay said, Clay sent me 0:05:39.040 --> 0:05:43.400 a picture of mountain goat and he said, he said, 0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:45.320 I want you to make me a mountain goat hat. 0:05:45.560 --> 0:05:48.320 I was like, what He's like, I want you to 0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:52.400 make me a mountain goat hat. And so I made 0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:56.440 the mountain goat hat. So it's a white beanie with 0:05:56.680 --> 0:05:58.920 horns and mountain goat ears. 0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:00.840 Yeah. I don't know how you did the sun but. 0:06:01.080 --> 0:06:08.200 And leafy suit and leaf leafy suit and painted at 0:06:08.279 --> 0:06:12.560 white so plain lukem is out wandering the mountains of 0:06:12.760 --> 0:06:18.080 Alaska dressed up in a mountain goat costume. I want 0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:19.040 to call it a costume. 0:06:19.200 --> 0:06:21.440 Anecdotal to the anecdotal to the hat. 0:06:22.080 --> 0:06:29.000 He pulled the white leafy suit out, freshly spray painted 0:06:30.320 --> 0:06:32.800 smell to it. Oh yeah, yeah, Tony and I were 0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:35.440 like sitting in the corner are out behind Walmart, huffing 0:06:35.480 --> 0:06:39.120 paint to a sock. Is what it smelled like. And 0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:41.560 I'm like, when when did you paint that? And it 0:06:41.680 --> 0:06:44.960 was like minutes before he packed. It was like on 0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:48.360 the way on the plane, on the way up right, 0:06:49.520 --> 0:06:51.840 and you've known you've been going to Alaska for how 0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:56.000 many months? But I didn't say that because it wasn't 0:06:56.000 --> 0:06:59.520 my first rodeo, as they say him. 0:06:59.720 --> 0:07:02.560 So he he's in Alaska right now, Yeah, taken over 0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:05.240 the render. We're really hoping he gets a go I 0:07:05.279 --> 0:07:06.680 hope he gets a goat with a hat. I hope 0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:07.440 he can fool him. 0:07:07.480 --> 0:07:11.280 Like yeah, he said, like roughly, it will work like 0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:13.240 two out of ten times a go to. 0:07:13.320 --> 0:07:15.480 Twenty percent of the time it works every time. 0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:19.320 So who knows, maybe he'll get one to think he's 0:07:19.320 --> 0:07:20.000 a goat. 0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:22.240 A goat with a bow. 0:07:23.520 --> 0:07:26.200 It's just it's just really different than what I thought 0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:28.080 my life would look like. I'm just gonna be honest, 0:07:28.200 --> 0:07:31.360 like I'm never I never, as a little kid, thought, man, 0:07:31.360 --> 0:07:32.840 I'm going to grow up and marry a man who 0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:35.800 puts on goat suits and wanders around the woods Like 0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:38.120 that never crossed my mind that that would be a 0:07:38.240 --> 0:07:39.000 part of my life. 0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:41.200 I sent that bitcher to Alexis and he's like, oh 0:07:41.200 --> 0:07:48.160 my gosh, did he lose a bent. That's voluntary. 0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:50.160 Yeah, that was his idea. 0:07:50.280 --> 0:07:54.440 Yeah, So best of luck, Clay Newcomb. We wish you well. 0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:56.200 You want to hear a story about goats? 0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:56.600 I do. 0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:00.880 This made me think of that I was a baby, 0:08:01.000 --> 0:08:03.440 and I don't remember this part, but my grandmother told 0:08:03.480 --> 0:08:07.040 me I was allergic to cow's milk and I couldn't 0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:08.120 drink it for a while. 0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:10.640 So, you know, that's not a thing. Nobody's allergic to 0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:11.880 cow's milk. They just think they are. 0:08:14.320 --> 0:08:19.640 Anyway, my grandmother, the liar that she is, apparently, was 0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:22.760 getting a good deal on goats milk. That's what the 0:08:22.800 --> 0:08:25.200 doctor prescribed me and drink. And she said it was 0:08:25.240 --> 0:08:29.960 canned goats milk and it was the foulst stench of anything. 0:08:30.320 --> 0:08:32.600 And this is a lady who we were. I mean, 0:08:32.640 --> 0:08:36.400 we raised chickens. We had two big chicken houses. And 0:08:36.600 --> 0:08:41.640 aroma is putting it mildly. What a chicken. You have 0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:44.559 never been around a chicken house. It smells like everything 0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:49.360 the chicken laid except the egg. It's that times ten thousand. 0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:49.720 Yeah. 0:08:50.720 --> 0:08:52.839 So she said I had to drink goats milk, and 0:08:52.840 --> 0:08:55.600 she said she would open it with them with a can. 0:08:55.960 --> 0:08:58.320 Thought they call the church key, you know, you poke 0:08:58.400 --> 0:08:59.880 holes in the can for she said it was. 0:08:59.880 --> 0:09:00.760 Just they call on one side. 0:09:02.800 --> 0:09:06.439 Fast forward fifty something years and a couple of weeks ago, 0:09:06.480 --> 0:09:08.360 I'm down at some friends of mine down in the 0:09:08.400 --> 0:09:11.480 south end of Bradley County on the Slain River, and 0:09:11.520 --> 0:09:13.880 they are living what they call the river stead life. 0:09:13.920 --> 0:09:15.120 They're right there on the river. 0:09:15.920 --> 0:09:20.680 They're raising goats, chickens, rabbits, they're making sausage from wild 0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:21.480 hogs they killed. 0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:23.360 My buddy's a forester. He works from home. 0:09:23.440 --> 0:09:30.000 She's a educational educational consultant that contracts with different school 0:09:30.000 --> 0:09:32.000 districts and stuff. So a lot of the stuff that 0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:34.040 they do they do at home and they live there. 0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:37.960 And I think she told me they figured eighty five 0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:42.160 percent of what they consume they either want to catch 0:09:42.200 --> 0:09:46.240 it or grow it there on their place. And they 0:09:46.280 --> 0:09:51.080 have goats. My only reference to goat's milk is the 0:09:51.160 --> 0:09:54.800 stories from my grandmother. And she said, we went out 0:09:54.880 --> 0:09:56.600 fishing that morning. We caught a bunch of fish. Would 0:09:56.600 --> 0:09:59.720 come back. She said, put some brownies in. They should 0:09:59.720 --> 0:10:02.800 be read. Let's go in and have some brownies and milk. 0:10:02.840 --> 0:10:05.640 And I'm like, you had me, Let's go in and 0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:08.760 eat regardless, Let's go and we get in there. She 0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:10.760 pulls out these big plate of brownies and poors me 0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:12.160 a big cold glass of milk. 0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:13.439 And I took a bite, and I thought boy, this 0:10:13.559 --> 0:10:14.280 is gonna be good. 0:10:14.640 --> 0:10:18.079 And as I'm getting that glass to my lips, I'm 0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:19.520 thinking this came. 0:10:19.320 --> 0:10:19.920 Out of a goat. 0:10:20.400 --> 0:10:23.280 I'm sure they came out of a goat, but I 0:10:23.320 --> 0:10:26.240 can't smell it. I don't smell anything. So I took 0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:29.240 a sip and I'm like, I didn't die. I'm gonna 0:10:29.400 --> 0:10:31.120 get a bigger drink. I took a drink and it 0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:33.640 tasted like milk, and I said, lee, Is, let's go 0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:37.160 to milk. She said, oh, yeah, from this morning. It 0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:39.360 has been long enough. She gets up at like four 0:10:39.400 --> 0:10:43.319 and right milk pours it filled coffee filter, sets it 0:10:43.400 --> 0:10:47.880 an ice box or refrigerator, and man, I could not 0:10:47.960 --> 0:10:51.000 tell it didn't come from Elsie herself. It was tasted 0:10:51.160 --> 0:10:54.640 exactly like so brownies. 0:10:54.640 --> 0:10:57.080 And so when I was when I when we first 0:10:57.080 --> 0:11:00.720 moved to Arkansas with fourteen r and neighbor had a 0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:04.960 goat dairy and she I think she had like sixty goats. 0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:07.680 She'd milk every day and people would come and I 0:11:07.720 --> 0:11:11.000 remember she gave me. She gave me a gla and 0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:12.719 I didn't know what to think, like I didn't know 0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:14.880 what to expect. And I took a drink of it, 0:11:14.920 --> 0:11:17.880 and I was like, this is delicious. I loved it. 0:11:17.920 --> 0:11:18.600 I thought it was great. 0:11:18.880 --> 0:11:20.840 So does that mean the milk you were drinking you 0:11:20.880 --> 0:11:22.360 were a kid was just like it? 0:11:22.480 --> 0:11:25.760 Probably I figured come out of a hog or something. 0:11:26.240 --> 0:11:30.400 Who knows you put a label on anything. But now 0:11:30.440 --> 0:11:33.760 I had a neighbor, a neighbor who is an absolute 0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:37.640 health food nerd. He's probably one hundred and twelve years old. 0:11:37.679 --> 0:11:40.160 He looks like he's forty. Yeah, but he walks up 0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:41.760 and down the street every day. And he asked me 0:11:41.760 --> 0:11:43.760 about goat's milk. I told him the story I told 0:11:43.840 --> 0:11:45.520 y'all about when I was a kid. And he said, well, 0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:48.679 it's better than that. It's better, he said, I'm going 0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:51.120 to bring you something. He brought me a gallon of 0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:53.720 goats milk. But it was so sweet. I couldn't harder 0:11:53.760 --> 0:11:56.040 drink it. It was like drinking really simple syrup. 0:11:56.120 --> 0:11:56.560 Yeah. 0:11:56.880 --> 0:11:58.840 I said, man, I can't drink it. It's just too sweet. 0:11:58.880 --> 0:12:01.960 And I you know, I like sweet teeth. I couldn't 0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:03.760 drink it. And he told me, and I told him 0:12:03.960 --> 0:12:07.320 the deal about the goat milk smelling and stuff. He said, well, 0:12:07.320 --> 0:12:09.319 it only tastes like that if you shake it up 0:12:10.480 --> 0:12:13.560 and I'm like, okay, so if. 0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:15.200 You're on a level of playing service, I've. 0:12:15.040 --> 0:12:18.640 Already called people liars, said, I'm not I'm just telling you. 0:12:20.360 --> 0:12:21.800 I'm just telling you what the man told me. 0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:23.280 But it was the sweet I told him, you can 0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:25.280 take it back, you can put it back in the goat. 0:12:25.320 --> 0:12:27.760 I don't know whatever whatever you do with it. 0:12:27.800 --> 0:12:31.120 But the milk I drank at quite a visual at 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:33.760 Lee and Keith's house, Lee and Keith Brandon down there. 0:12:33.840 --> 0:12:36.280 It was. It tastes just like cow's milk to me. 0:12:36.920 --> 0:12:39.000 To go Lee and Keith, I got some good, healthy goats. 0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:42.080 When we first moved here, I was really nervous that 0:12:42.600 --> 0:12:44.360 we were gonna they were going to annex the house 0:12:44.360 --> 0:12:46.160 in city limits, and I was nervous they wouldn't let 0:12:46.200 --> 0:12:48.920 us keep animals. If they did that, it took years, 0:12:49.000 --> 0:12:50.520 there was no rush, but I was nervous it was 0:12:50.559 --> 0:12:55.040 gonna happen really fast. And so basically the week after 0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:57.480 we bought this land, I went on the Craigslist and 0:12:57.480 --> 0:13:01.120 bought a goat, just one single, so that we could 0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:05.200 be considered. And we got at home and we asked 0:13:05.200 --> 0:13:07.560 the girls. I don't even know how we got the 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:09.600 goat here. But we asked the girls. The girls were 0:13:09.600 --> 0:13:11.800 two and three, and we said what should we name it? 0:13:12.120 --> 0:13:14.560 And they said, their name's Willow and River, and they 0:13:14.600 --> 0:13:17.280 said we should name it after the one boyfriend that 0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:21.199 they had, which was Josh's son, David. 0:13:20.440 --> 0:13:20.720 And so. 0:13:22.240 --> 0:13:23.680 We had a named David. 0:13:25.679 --> 0:13:28.040 Your dog John was your son Fair. 0:13:31.240 --> 0:13:33.040 And we had the pig names after Uncle Jo. 0:13:33.280 --> 0:13:35.320 That's right. So we had a go named David. And 0:13:35.320 --> 0:13:38.599 that sucker was mean, and he hated women, and he 0:13:38.640 --> 0:13:42.079 hated children, and he hated anyone that had any visible 0:13:42.080 --> 0:13:45.440 weakness whatsoever. You would walk up, I mean he he 0:13:45.679 --> 0:13:48.120 men he was good with unless they had a limp, 0:13:48.160 --> 0:13:50.680 and he would go after him. Women he would the 0:13:50.800 --> 0:13:54.440 second I mean they he was at. He was a 0:13:54.600 --> 0:13:58.400 very mean, aggressive goat and he just smelled awful. And 0:13:58.440 --> 0:14:00.680 then we go to some fans he placed a couple 0:14:00.679 --> 0:14:03.920 of years later. David wasn't well loved. I mean, I 0:14:03.920 --> 0:14:07.000 don't know if you could tell David the goat. David 0:14:06.880 --> 0:14:10.360 the goat was not well loved, and he actually ran away. 0:14:10.960 --> 0:14:14.560 I mean, I don't know, he's like probably wandering jumped him. 0:14:14.679 --> 0:14:15.120 I don't know. 0:14:15.280 --> 0:14:16.959 He just one day he was gone, and I was like, well, 0:14:17.000 --> 0:14:22.560 good ridding, and and we could never find aggressives. 0:14:22.600 --> 0:14:25.720 We had roosters and we had got captain. 0:14:25.880 --> 0:14:29.120 Yeah, there's a lot of a lot of aggression, a violence. 0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:33.880 It's true. 0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:36.840 We had these turkeys that were just mean as can be, 0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:45.680 Tom and Albuquerque, and they were they were a big 0:14:45.800 --> 0:14:49.240 name Jeff and a goat named David. These are our 0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:53.120 early new Conformed days. And they got to where they, 0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:55.760 you know, they would roost out here Clay wanted. They 0:14:55.760 --> 0:14:58.480 looked wild, you know, but they were domestic turkeys. And 0:14:58.520 --> 0:15:02.760 one of them went to our neighbor house and their grandma. 0:15:02.920 --> 0:15:05.600 They were moving grandma in and she had a cast 0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:09.560 on her hand, and the mean turkey saw that and 0:15:09.720 --> 0:15:13.520 just went after and the neighbors thought they were wild turkeys, 0:15:13.560 --> 0:15:16.240 and so they killed them. And the other neighbors saw 0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:19.080 all this and ran out and said, that's Glay's turkeys. 0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:21.520 Those are pet turkeys. And so they come to our 0:15:21.520 --> 0:15:27.040 house like head in hand, Mary, ashamed of themselves turkeys, 0:15:27.080 --> 0:15:29.200 and they're like, we thought they were wild. We were pomped. 0:15:29.200 --> 0:15:31.040 I mean, I guess it was turkey season. I don't 0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:32.880 know they were we were. 0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:35.680 All pokemon cards. They were like, here, you got to 0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:36.200 pay for it. 0:15:36.240 --> 0:15:38.440 And I wasn't a huge Pokemon fan, so I was like, 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:40.360 I just want the feathers, give me the feathers, and 0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:42.800 y'all can you know me? Well, I did want the meat, 0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:44.600 but they did attack their grandma, you know, so I 0:15:44.600 --> 0:15:52.440 felt like we were kind of But I went to 0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:54.720 a fancy restaurant a couple of years later after we 0:15:54.760 --> 0:15:57.320 had David, and they served goat cheese and everyone was 0:15:57.360 --> 0:15:59.760 talking about how great it was and I got I 0:15:59.800 --> 0:16:03.040 put some on my plate and it smelled like David. 0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:03.520 Yeah. 0:16:03.640 --> 0:16:05.520 And when I took a bite of it, it tasted 0:16:05.600 --> 0:16:07.320 like David smelled. And I was like, I am not 0:16:07.440 --> 0:16:09.200 interested in this business at all. 0:16:09.760 --> 0:16:13.400 She made some cheese down there, it was had no 0:16:13.560 --> 0:16:16.080 odor to it. I mean, these folks are I mean, 0:16:16.120 --> 0:16:18.840 they're not doing this stuff. They're giving lessons on the internet, 0:16:18.880 --> 0:16:21.720 they're not taking them off of there. They but I 0:16:22.240 --> 0:16:24.240 ate cheese. See had jalapeno goat. 0:16:24.160 --> 0:16:27.160 Cheese and it didn't taste like David smell. 0:16:27.440 --> 0:16:29.880 No, And I never smelled David, but it didn't smell. 0:16:29.680 --> 0:16:32.320 Like you smelled David. I mean it's it's it's a 0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:36.920 pretty standard smell, but. 0:16:37.000 --> 0:16:38.280 No, it really wasn't. 0:16:38.320 --> 0:16:40.120 I mean, I don't know what she's doing down there, 0:16:40.160 --> 0:16:43.040 but I mean it was the only thing between me 0:16:43.120 --> 0:16:46.200 and the goat was a coffee fielder and ice box. 0:16:46.160 --> 0:16:47.120 Or otherwise it was. 0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:49.840 You could have said I got it out of the goat, right, 0:16:49.880 --> 0:16:51.000 but that was it. 0:16:51.440 --> 0:16:54.360 I've never I've never eaten meltain goat, but I am 0:16:54.400 --> 0:16:58.080 a little bit nervous that it's gonna taste like David. 0:16:58.200 --> 0:17:10.600 Yeah, well, I'm hoping you get the opportunity. Yeah, Bear, 0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:13.600 show us your latest project. 0:17:13.920 --> 0:17:17.640 Okay, So I made the bow. That's what I showed 0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:20.840 the last couple of weeks. This week, I've got the arrow. 0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:25.400 So this is a river cane arrow that I cut down. 0:17:25.520 --> 0:17:27.479 That shaft looks good, very much. 0:17:27.560 --> 0:17:33.080 So I cut down probably forty shafts, and only about 0:17:33.440 --> 0:17:37.920 twelve of them work after drying them, and so this 0:17:38.000 --> 0:17:40.680 one was pretty dry. Well, whenever you put them out 0:17:40.720 --> 0:17:42.840 in the sun to dry, at least the ones I 0:17:42.880 --> 0:17:43.400 cut down. 0:17:44.080 --> 0:17:48.160 If they're too small or if they're I really don't know. 0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:50.879 Exactly what the issue is, but they'll shrivel up and 0:17:50.920 --> 0:17:53.359 then you bend them and some of them will just 0:17:53.480 --> 0:17:58.359 break and then some of them will bend and pretty 0:17:58.440 --> 0:18:02.280 much they're pretty straight right off the bat, but you 0:18:02.359 --> 0:18:07.400 have to like really micro straighten them or else still 0:18:07.400 --> 0:18:08.000 fly weird. 0:18:08.040 --> 0:18:09.480 But yeah, this one point? 0:18:09.720 --> 0:18:11.240 Did you make that stuff point? 0:18:11.400 --> 0:18:13.280 That's a stone point? 0:18:13.440 --> 0:18:13.760 Uh. 0:18:13.840 --> 0:18:16.960 These are turkey feathers from the bushwhack turkey that I 0:18:17.040 --> 0:18:20.160 killed this year. But yeah, this is the second one 0:18:20.200 --> 0:18:26.000 I made, so it's not quite hunting worthy, Like there's 0:18:26.000 --> 0:18:30.640 some imperfections in the the fletchings, but arrows are tough 0:18:30.720 --> 0:18:35.280 beat not yet. I made it like last night. I've 0:18:35.320 --> 0:18:39.080 got some helix in that on the feathers there helix. 0:18:39.640 --> 0:18:43.360 Oh yeah, helical. Yeah, there's because you have to use 0:18:43.600 --> 0:18:46.560 all the feathers from the same wing because the feathers 0:18:46.640 --> 0:18:50.959 kind of curve and have like a natural helical to them. 0:18:51.119 --> 0:18:55.280 But have you learn that YouTube? 0:18:56.200 --> 0:18:56.919 He's a doctor. 0:18:57.000 --> 0:19:02.520 Now, Yeah, it's fantastic. What's what where'd you get the sinew? 0:19:03.359 --> 0:19:04.360 No sinew in this one? 0:19:04.440 --> 0:19:04.560 Well? 0:19:04.600 --> 0:19:08.280 Actually you're like this this is a what I don't 0:19:08.320 --> 0:19:10.240 know what size it is, but this is a thread 0:19:10.280 --> 0:19:16.880 I type flies with. I gave this arrow a whip finish. Yeah, 0:19:17.280 --> 0:19:19.520 very nice, but yeah it's not I don't have any 0:19:19.560 --> 0:19:20.560 real sinew on there. 0:19:20.920 --> 0:19:22.880 But what's holding the stump point on. 0:19:23.320 --> 0:19:29.160 That is pine pitch and charcoal. Charcoal kind of hardens 0:19:29.200 --> 0:19:31.480 it in the pine pitch is kind of just like 0:19:31.640 --> 0:19:35.560 natural glue. But yeah, I've been using on the other 0:19:35.600 --> 0:19:39.280 one I made, I used squirrel and testings that dried 0:19:39.320 --> 0:19:43.359 out and it was actually pretty strong, and use that 0:19:43.440 --> 0:19:45.520 as kind of the cordage. This one I just used. 0:19:45.960 --> 0:19:46.800 I didn't have any left. 0:19:46.800 --> 0:19:50.040 So you're you're gearing up for deer season. 0:19:50.119 --> 0:19:53.880 Yeah, deer and bear season. Some hunting a bear this year. 0:19:55.600 --> 0:19:59.359 With the self bow and a stone point and probably 0:20:00.040 --> 0:20:02.640 either a river cane or bamboo arrow. But these are 0:20:02.640 --> 0:20:06.520 some of the points that I've made that I'm gonna 0:20:07.359 --> 0:20:09.359 probably end up shooting them with. I'm gonna get the 0:20:09.400 --> 0:20:11.800 arrows figured out a little better before I use these. 0:20:11.840 --> 0:20:16.880 But there's so this one's a Clovis, which is what 0:20:16.920 --> 0:20:17.800 they would have used. 0:20:19.040 --> 0:20:21.320 Yeahs site is what that stone is called. 0:20:21.720 --> 0:20:23.560 But just is this a local stone or is this 0:20:23.600 --> 0:20:24.359 a stone you got? 0:20:24.400 --> 0:20:25.439 That's a stone I bought. 0:20:25.960 --> 0:20:28.600 I don't really know where to get it, but that 0:20:28.840 --> 0:20:31.840 style of point is what they would have used to 0:20:31.960 --> 0:20:38.199 kill wooly mammoths. Clovis, And so I might want to 0:20:38.240 --> 0:20:40.639 kill a bear, or I might use this one. I 0:20:40.680 --> 0:20:42.640 don't really know what style that is. 0:20:42.560 --> 0:20:44.480 But that's a good looking stone point bear. 0:20:44.640 --> 0:20:47.200 Yeah, that one is probably more effective than that one 0:20:47.920 --> 0:20:49.280
