I started the company in nineteen seventy 33 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 5: six when I was twenty four. 34 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: I've never heard I've never heard a single person say 35 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,080 Speaker 1: a single negative word about you. 36 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, Okay, that's awesome. 37 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 1: Let me tell you something that don't happen. Yeah. 38 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 5: Well, one time I killed this big deer, really big 39 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:29,119 Speaker 5: deer in Mississippi. And my wife goes, have you been 40 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 5: on the internet? Have you seen what they're saying about you? 41 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 5: And I'm going no, And she says, well you ought to. 42 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 5: I said it don't matter what that what? 43 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: By the way, what are they say? 44 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:40,119 Speaker 5: And they said, well, you killed it in a pin, 45 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 5: you raised it in a one acre pin, and then 46 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 5: finally killed it. I said, Okay, she says, you're not 47 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 5: going to go and answer that. 48 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: He says, no, you know, because we'll primos don't do that. Yeah, 49 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: it don't exist. So I ain't worried about it. And 50 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 1: it goes away. 51 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 5: But you know, I'm sure somebody says something bad somewhere, 52 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 5: but you know, the you know, the camera doesn't love everybody. 53 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 5: And I didn't want to be I didn't want to 54 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,399 Speaker 5: become some known hunting person. That's not wasn't my goal. 55 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 5: My goal was to make a living. My goal was 56 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 5: to share my love of the outdoors with others and 57 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 5: get them to love it and hopefully want to protect it, 58 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 5: because if you protect what you love. 59 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, so if I. 60 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,799 Speaker 5: Can go out there and share il cunting and share 61 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 5: waterfowl in the green timber or just wherever we are 62 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 5: turkey hunting, you know, just whatever it is, if I 63 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 5: can share that and you can fall in love with it, 64 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 5: then you'll want to protect it. And it's all about habitat. 65 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 5: If we don't have the habitat, you ain't got the 66 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 5: critters they take. Each animal takes a certain quality of 67 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 5: habitat to thrive. And so that was kind of my goal. 68 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 5: And as I went and began to go through it, 69 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 5: and began to get a little bit of win in 70 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 5: my sale and understand that I might be able to 71 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 5: make a real company out of this thing I was 72 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 5: trying to do. I came on a realization that if 73 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 5: you can let people have the opportunity to know you, 74 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 5: then you have the opportunity for people to like you. 75 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: Now you're you're. 76 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 5: Gambling, because if they don't, you've really you've really kind 77 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 5: of hurt yourself. And so the key to that is 78 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 5: to keep your ego out of it. And that was 79 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 5: the secret behind Primos. When we hired people and we 80 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 5: had people and it was all about them, and because 81 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 5: everybody got to hunt, it wasn't about Will Primos. Everybody 82 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 5: got to hunt. When we went, we went, we went. 83 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 5: I would hunt usually first, and I didn't wait for 84 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 5: the biggest one. 85 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:39,679 Speaker 1: Did a Cory Well for folks not watching, uh Phiel 86 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: just gestured to uh Corey, who sorry, Will just gestured 87 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,719 Speaker 1: to Corey. And you guys a hunted together, which we'll 88 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 1: talk about. 89 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 3: Yeah we have. 90 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 5: So so anyway, you can't wait. So you can't wait 91 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 5: for the biggest one. If there's somebody behind you and 92 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 5: you only got five day window to try to fill tags, 93 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 5: and so I wouldn't kill the first thing that was 94 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 5: decent and let the person hunt. Yep, yeah, I'll never forget. 95 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 5: I forget what year of the fire was up there 96 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 5: at the c two thousand and one or nineteen ninety 97 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 5: nine or somewhere. Anyway, we were hunting, I begive this 98 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 5: first day was September seventeenth. We were hunting the bar None, 99 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 5: which was next to the C eight, and early snowstorm came. 100 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 5: We were staying in the old schoolhouse on the bar 101 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:26,119 Speaker 5: None at ted Turner's place, and so we're staying there 102 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 5: and it's seventeen degrees and my wife says, I'm not going. 103 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 5: So we got in the suburban with our special tires 104 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 5: that we had put on for all our rental cars 105 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 5: and went up the mountain and got up there.

Brad Ferris has said, will, I'm gonna 107 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 5: hunt first, and I'm gonna kill the first thing I see, 108 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 5: so that you could have the rest of the time 109 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,119 Speaker 5: to try to kill a big one. I said, Okay, 110 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 5: can't finding out they've left. There's so much snow. There's 111 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 5: two feet of snow.

He's 125 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 5: about forty yards away. So I'm running the camera. So 126 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 5: I sat down with the camera. At the same time 127 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 5: I got on the hyper lip. 128 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. 129 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 5: He turned around and started coming.

He won't shoot. 132 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 5: So I got my range finder out of my vest 133 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 5: and I ranged him. I said fifty five. The elk stops, 134 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 5: turns round and walks sixty.

You think you'll go three thirty, 137 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 5: said Brad. You just killed a four hundred inch elk, 138 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 5: He goes. 139 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? 140 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 5: I never saw what elk the rest of the trip, 141 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 5: so Brad was gonna kill the first one he saw, 142 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 5: and he did. But you know, it's not about you. 143 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 5: It's about sharing. It's about being there, it's about loving it. 144 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 5: It's about teaching people how much fun we can have 145 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 5: out there, being a part of what God created, and 146 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 5: watching elk be elk during the rut and watching white 147 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,239 Speaker 5: tails do it, and watching turkeys do it, and watching 148 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 5: ducks in their migration, and just being able to be 149 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 5: enthusiastic and share that and help other people get to 150 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 5: that spot.

Some people have very narrow palette. 388 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 5: Some people have very high palette. Some people have wide 389 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 5: palettes and low so the mouth is huge. So I 390 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 5: can look at somebody's face and have a pretty good idea, 391 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 5: but I'll have them lean back and open their mouth 392 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 5: and look at their palette because they tell me they're 393 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 5: having trouble that gag or this. Some people have a 394 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 5: short throat, short pallet, and that those people gag a 395 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 5: whole lot more than the people that have what I 396 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:43,159 Speaker 5: call it a normal palette. 397 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 1: So so you can eyeball someone's palette and then make 398 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 1: a recommendation yeah, yeah, and so so then you start 399 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 1: trying to get that to fit so that that call 400 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: becomes the roof of the mouth and once you can. 401 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,639 Speaker 5: Seal that there and pass air through it. It's all 402 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 5: about out your jaw. 403 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 1: It's all about how you move your jaw and how 404 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 1: and how you use your lips to be able to 405 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 1: call turkeys. But explain the back in those days, what 406 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 1: you got together to make a call. 407 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,479 Speaker 5: Well, I started out with an adhesive. It was kind 408 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 5: of like a contact cement that I would coat onto 409 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,679 Speaker 5: these illuminum frames that well, you illumined them out out 410 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 5: of beer cans. It wasly ten uh, and you would 411 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 5: get that on there, and then you put get the 412 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 5: right stretch that you thought you'd put it down on 413 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 5: the frame, and then you part of the beer can 414 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 5: the lid. Sometimes the lid with lid was usually too thick, 415 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 5: but that had worked because it helped separate mine a 416 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,640 Speaker 5: certain distance. He used different stuff, But then I went 417 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 5: to aluminum, and then I built ade and it was 418 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 5: I didn't have a I didn't have a punch press. 419 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 5: So I went to the die maker and said, here's 420 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 5: what I want, here's the shape, here's what I want, 421 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 5: and I want to feed the strip of aluminum through there, 422 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 5: and I just want to hit it with a sledgehammer. 423 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 5: He goes, okay, so we still have it. I mean, 424 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 5: it's still a little risk play. So it's got big 425 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 5: legs and you fed it through there, put the aluminum, 426 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 5: put it on there and took the sledgehammer. Bamn, there's 427 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 5: your peace, bounced on the concrete, and you know you'd 428 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 5: get a piece a whole lot quicker than I could 429 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 5: cut him out. But the real secret was people in 430 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,719 Speaker 5: Pennsylvania figured out how to make what's called a crown 431 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 5: frame where the outside edges of the frame pinch the reed, 432 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 5: so you stretch the red, insert the frame, fold it over, 433 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 5: then have a tab that helped seal itep. So that 434 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 5: became a lot more efficient and a lot better. 435 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 1: That was Pennsylvania innovation. 436 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,639 Speaker 5: Yes, as far as I know, that's correct. 437 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: So when you sold that first call where you just 438 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: saw off to the races then or was it slow? 439 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: You know? 440 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 5: I charged him twenty bucks, you know, and he was thrilled. 441 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 5: And that was twenty bucks in nineteen probably seventy. 442 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:57,959 Speaker 1: Five or so. How many calls did you give him 443 00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: for twenty bucks? 444 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,360 Speaker 5: One mouth gul. 445 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 1: Wow, wow. 446 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 3: Yeah. 447 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: I wantn't go sit there and do all that.

It was 454 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 5: usually a night because I was working in the day 455 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 5: and i'd get home sometimes eleven o'clock at night. I 456 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 5: was in the restaurant business with my family, okay, And 457 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 5: so I might work two or three hours and I 458 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 5: might make six or ten. 459 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 1: It took a while.

Oh. So that 465 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: would put it on one side of the frame, peel 466 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 1: it off, put the latex in place, and then seal 467 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,879 Speaker 1: it did stick to it?

At what point did you know 505 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,720 Speaker 1: that you were just that you had established yourself and 506 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: you're gonna be making calls the rest of your life. 507 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 5: In nineteen ninety I had a million dollars in sales 508 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 5: and my CPA told me I made money. 509 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 1: I said, show it to me. 510 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 5: He said, it's an inventory and it's unreceivable. I said, 511 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 5: and now you owe this much in taxes. I went, well, 512 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,360 Speaker 5: where does that come from? He said, I guess you'd 513 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 5: go borrow that too. 514 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 1: Oh, I gotcha. How many people did you have at 515 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:10,399 Speaker 1: that point? Oh? 516 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 5: Probably eighteen or so. 517 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 1: Yeah. When I sell the company, we had right at 518 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 1: two hundred. Right shot, What year did you sell premost 519 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: game calls? Night? 520 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 5: Two thousand and. 521 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: Six. Johanni wants to ask you a question. 522 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:32,160 Speaker 3: About voiceover. 523 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,479 Speaker 6: Yeah, man, we were just we had a little content 524 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 6: summit with a bunch of our creators just earlier this week, 525 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 6: and we and Steve talked about his approach to voiceover, 526 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 6: and that was really a hallmark. I felt like of 527 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:51,159 Speaker 6: the truth videos was your narration. Talk a little bit 528 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 6: about that, like why why Woul did that end up 529 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 6: being the way that you guys did those videos where 530 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,239 Speaker 6: it seemed like you sort of recorded them, but there 531 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 6: wasn't really too much story on camera. It was really 532 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 6: your voice that then narrated and drove that story. 533 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 5: Well, it's really hard to keep the camera running twenty 534 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 5: four to seven, so to speak and capture every moment 535 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 5: and every word. And then back then when we were 536 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 5: doing it, we didn't have the audio capabilities we have now. 537 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:22,399 Speaker 5: You didn't have the wireless mics, so the mic was 538 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 5: on the camera, so you had to tell the story 539 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 5: to bring the viewer into place somehow. 540 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 1: So what would they do? 541 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,679 Speaker 5: They'd edited, the editors would edit it on Avid edit 542 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 5: systems the way they thought it out a beat, and 543 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,680 Speaker 5: then they would write what they thought needed to be said. 544 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 5: And then they would bring me in and I would 545 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 5: watch it and look at their words and change it 546 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 5: to my lingo, to my words because I was I 547 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:51,639 Speaker 5: became the voice. 548 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: Man. I didn't realize, but we we really just stole 549 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 1: will system. 550 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's kind of how I feel. 551 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: We owe you some like we owe you some sort 552 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 1: of payment for having accidentally stole your methodology, you owe 553 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: me nothing you got. You remain like a very staunch 554 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: supporter of a bunch of conservation or I shouldn't say 555 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 1: a bunch, but I know you're heavily involved in conservation groups. 556 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 1: Who do you like to? I know you help out 557 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 1: NWTF a lot. Now who else do you get involved with? 558 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 5: Well, there's so many out there, but those that are 559 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 5: so connected to being able to double and triple the 560 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:36,160 Speaker 5: money that they get through grants, those are the ones 561 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 5: that I'm right now most interested in. 562 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 1: Help me understand that. 563 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 5: So if you give Ducks unlimited one hundred thousand dollars, 564 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,400 Speaker 5: there's a good chance they can turn that into three 565 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 5: or four or thousand dollars. 566 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 1: But I don't understand. 567 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 5: I mean they apply for grants through the federal government 568 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 5: typically to do matching campaigns, matching in dublin and tripling. 569 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:06,159 Speaker 1: Okay, meaning if they're able to demonstrate citizen corporate sponsorship 570 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:08,880 Speaker 1: that somehow can lead to more. 571 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 5: Yes, it can. So what I center in on, all 572 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 5: of my interest goes toward habitat protection and restoration. 573 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 1: So that's where you personally like to. 574 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 5: I personally try to put all of my enter into 575 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 5: the ground on the ground. 576 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 1: That's correct. Yeah, you know. 577 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 5: So I'm just now engineering a situation. I have got 578 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:36,880 Speaker 5: a set of Party shotguns. Party is a London made 579 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 5: side by sys the p U r D Y right 580 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 5: p U r D E y d E y Okay 581 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 5: Party shotguns. And so I have the only consecutive set 582 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 5: serial numbered Party side by side hammer shotguns ever made four, ten, twenty, 583 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 5: sixteen and twelve. And so I've been collecting these for 584 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:03,160 Speaker 5: about almost twenty years, and I reserved when I ordered 585 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 5: my first. 586 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 1: One, I reserved all the serial numbers. 587 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:11,639 Speaker 5: And so the guns cost somewhere through my through my 588 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 5: years of buying them, somewhere around a million two and. 589 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 1: To accumulate the collection to get the collection. 590 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 5: And so I'm now giving those guns to conservation. And 591 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 5: the Congressional Sportsman's Foundation, which a lot of people don't 592 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,480 Speaker 5: know about, is a fantastic organization that helps to protect 593 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 5: all of our hunting and fishing rights, habitat restoration, habitat 594 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 5: protection by state and federally. And they're out there fighting 595 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 5: making sure the states passed the right legislation, making sure 596 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 5: the federal government passes the right legislation, and so I 597 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 5: chose them to head this project up. And so Rock 598 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 5: Island is the great auctioneer of high end guns, and 599 00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 5: they're going to auction off my guns. 600 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: Can I tell you that's how that punk gun out 601 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 1: there we bought from Rock Island? 602 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 5: Okay, Okay. So they're going to auction the guns off 603 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 5: and the money is going to be divided between certain 604 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 5: conservational organizations that protect or restore habitat. 605 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: Are you guys fixing the auction them as a block 606 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: to a single buyer because people don't want to break 607 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 1: them up? 608 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 10: Right? 609 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 1: That's I think that if you right now, we're about 610 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 1: to make that decision for sure, But more than likely 611 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 1: they're going to be sold as a set only, because 612 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 1: if you buy a single gun, the set's not worth 613 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: as much. What do you think it'll go for? 614 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 5: You know, it depends if you find the right guy 615 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 5: who realizes that anything over the appraised value. 616 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 1: And I'm not sure what they'll praise for. They could 617 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: have praised for a million, they could have praised for 618 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 1: a million and a half. I'm not sure. You can't. 619 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 5: You can't build them anymore. That the fourteen and twenty 620 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 5: eight will never be built again, So that person could 621 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 5: come in there and say, well, look, anything over and 622 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 5: above that I get to write off because all this 623 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 5: money is going to observation. So it might be two million, 624 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 5: five million, ten million. Maybe Stephen Ronnello will jump forward 625 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 5: and do something with all that money that's under his. 626 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 1: I don't know that he will. 627 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 5: So anyway, it's all about habitat, it's about responing. And 628 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 5: I love the grasslands. Just to think about the world 629 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 5: that I read about in your book, in the Buffalo, 630 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 5: your unbelievable book. I just couldn't put it down. But 631 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 5: the story of of all of that that was Buffalo 632 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 5: and the animals before him, and the grasslands and the 633 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 5: tall grass and the short grass, and the prairie chickens, 634 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 5: and they were they were thick like mosquitoes. And and 635 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 5: the fact that we've lost so much of that we've 636 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 5: got we got to keep that. That's that's the heartbeat 637 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 5: of the United States. 638 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: When's that action going to happen? 639 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 4: Uh? 640 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: Probably December of twenty five. You got to remind us 641 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 1: when you do it. Okay, I'd love to. Maybe we 642 00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: can do a little thing where it follows along. Sure 643 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: that auction happens. It's like a pretty discreet period of time, right, 644 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 1: It's not like open forbidding for months or something. 645 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 5: Rock Island is the masters at that, and I'm not 646 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 5: going to run their show. They know exactly how they're 647 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 5: going to go about doing it. 648 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:13,719 Speaker 1: Man, if you remember, let us know, it'd be fun 649 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 1: to do a little something about that.

It was a beautiful bowl. 674 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 11: But then your guide had to do something the next day, 675 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 11: and I was offered to take you out, which was 676 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 11: kind of a dream come true. Honestly, Oh man, we 677 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 11: had fun, we did. Yeah, I think we hunted that afternoon. 678 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 1: Was he whining and moaning the whole time, you know, 679 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 1: talking bad about old buddy. 680 00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 11: We had a big bowl on a ridge above you, 681 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 11: and I tried backing up as far as I could 682 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 11: and tried calling him in, and the bowl had forty 683 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 11: fifty cows with him and never never would leave his cows. 684 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 11: And I remember after this, I think it was after 685 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 11: the sun went down. It just, you know, that didn't 686 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 11: work out. The planets didn't a line, as I like 687 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 11: to say. You came back to me and you said, no, 688 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 11: you should have done this instead, And you know, learn 689 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 11: from your mistakes, and definitely learned from those who have 690 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 11: done it. 691 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: You remember what I told you you should have done. 692 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 11: There's something with a bugle like you grabbed a bugle 693 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 11: from me. It was still around my neck, and you 694 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 11: said you should have wailed on it like this instead, 695 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 11: because I think I might've been being a little too 696 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 11: soft or something less aggressive. 697 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 1: Should I just just a frustration. 698 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 11: I mean we were both fired up still that it 699 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 11: didn't work out. Adrenaline was still rolling. And then I 700 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 11: remember we had a pretty solid hike back up to 701 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 11: the truck after that. 702 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, and now's your day with will Primos. 703 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 11: Well, and then the next day we went out and 704 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 11: by eight thirty in the morning had a nice six 705 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 11: point down. 706 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 1: Oh really Yeah, so you guys got together.

You don't talk about politics, 725 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: you don't talk about religion. You're pretty open about your 726 00:34:59,160 --> 00:34:59,879 Speaker 1: spiritual life. 727 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 5: Oh gosh, I love the Lord, I love I am. 728 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:03,759 Speaker 1: I am. 729 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 5: I'm a believer in Jesus Christ.

I mean, you know 734 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:22,239 Speaker 5: what lightning is.

That's that's fine, that's 740 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,279 Speaker 5: their choice, That's what God gave us, his choice. But 741 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 5: I'm good, you know, yeah, never never any hesitation, none? 742 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:42,279 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, what what year was the first truth, well, 743 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 1: the first truth that. 744 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:47,760 Speaker 5: Six eighty seventh. 745 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 9: And when when you guys decided to make that, was 746 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 9: it like we're going to see what happens. 747 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 5: Or was this in just no, let's see what happens. 748 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 5: We don't know what we're doing. Yeah, the equipment wasn't good. 749 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:00,919 Speaker 5: We had a back you had a real to reel. 750 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 5: You had to set the thing down on the ground 751 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 5: and get it going out a wire, and had a camera. 752 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 5: The stuff wasn't in the camera, it was on another backpack. 753 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 5: He weighed about eighty five pounds to carry all the equipment, 754 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:14,759 Speaker 5: and you had to get to the where you were 755 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 5: going to go and set it down and get ready 756 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:17,719 Speaker 5: and hope the turkey was. 757 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:18,839 Speaker 1: Still around by the time. 758 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:22,279 Speaker 5: And then climbing a tree. 759 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,359 Speaker 3: You know, we always just for Why did you guys 760 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 3: hire like professional camera guys. 761 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 5: Oh no, no, no, no, no no, we hired hunters. 762 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 5: You've got to have a hunter behind that. He's got 763 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 5: to tell that story through that lens, and only a 764 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 5: hunter can do that. 765 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 1: Music to sess ears, Yeah, listen, man, this is like 766 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,720 Speaker 1: you're you're touching on the thing that we've that Jannis 767 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:47,880 Speaker 1: and I have spent an incredible amount of time discussing 768 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 1: is and this is a real riddle. I appreciate that 769 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: you feel like you got the code cracked, but I 770 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 1: don't know. I think that this is whype be one 771 00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,840 Speaker 1: of those areas where you and I don't necessarily align. 772 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 5: Okay, you're wrong and not right, but that's okay. You 773 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 5: can teach a hunter to be a cameraman, but you 774 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 5: cannot teach a cameraman to be a hunters necessary. 775 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:19,400 Speaker 1: That has not necessarily been my finding. 776 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 5: Okay, uh. 777 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:27,080 Speaker 1: In the we agree on this, in the best case scenario, 778 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 1: you have In the best case scenario, you have a 779 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:36,480 Speaker 1: lifelong cameraman who's a lifelong hunter and observer of wildlife. 780 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 1: Everyone would agree. Everyone would agree that's the best case scenario. 781 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 1: I have found examples of both. There are really good cameramen, 782 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:52,839 Speaker 1: like the kind of camera and you'd want to call 783 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:57,879 Speaker 1: like a cinematographer okay, right, who never can get used 784 00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:00,840 Speaker 1: to animals. They don't know how to behave around animals. 785 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:03,239 Speaker 1: They can't get used to animals. But there are some 786 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,759 Speaker 1: there are some individuals out there that I've worked with 787 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 1: over the years, and I don't want to and I 788 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:11,439 Speaker 1: gotta say this because if they they probably won't listen 789 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:17,359 Speaker 1: to this. But in case they do. Rick Smith, Chris Gill, 790 00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:24,319 Speaker 1: No Fallon Gartt Garrett, Gary Smith grew up on Yeah yeah, 791 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:30,240 Speaker 1: but not like not like we did. These are some examples. 792 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 1: These are outliers. Perhaps these are examples of people who 793 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:40,240 Speaker 1: came to their world of cinematography being a DP, director 794 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:43,879 Speaker 1: of photography, camera guy whatever. They came to it from 795 00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:48,360 Speaker 1: a world of appreciation for like appreciation for the arts, 796 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 1: being very schooled and cinema history, getting formally educated in 797 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 1: camera work and like majoring and that stuff in college, 798 00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 1: and after a short time in the field, got it okay. 799 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:07,839 Speaker 1: Like when you say, if I go, don't move, these 800 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:13,320 Speaker 1: guys don't move, okay, ma'am. They at least understand. I 801 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 1: have had to sit with I've this is something I've 802 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:17,879 Speaker 1: literally done. I've literally say out with the camera guy 803 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:20,839 Speaker 1: before Turkey Hunt, and I want to go like, I'm 804 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 1: gonna show you. I'm gonna sit here and I'm gonna 805 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: show you what not moving looks like, because apparently apparently 806 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 1: there's different understandings of what not moving looks like. And 807 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 1: I'd be like, this is not moving, that's not moving. 808 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 1: You think not moving is this? I get it. Not 809 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:53,879 Speaker 1: moving is right and it can be learned, And I think, 810 00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: but what. At the same time, you could grow up 811 00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 1: being a great hunter like okay or just let I 812 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 1: don't want to say great, you grew up being an 813 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 1: avid hunter. I want to be able to roll myself 814 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 1: into this without claiming to be a great hunter. You 815 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:08,120 Speaker 1: grew up being an avid hunter. I still, this is 816 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 1: not a joke. I would not know how to turn 817 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:14,719 Speaker 1: this camera on. I honestly wouldn't know how to turn 818 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 1: it on. I probably wouldn't either. No, I've done it, 819 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:20,719 Speaker 1: but I probably wouldn't know. I took when I was 820 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 1: in regular college. I took black and white photography one, 821 00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:31,839 Speaker 1: black and white photography two and struggled. I know how 822 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 1: to wield the English language. I do not know how 823 00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 1: to work with images, right, So. 824 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 5: We answer to all that. Bottom line, we had a trademark. 825 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 5: This ain't Hollywood, so we're not trying to win a 826 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 5: cinematography award. We're trying to share with the public what happens. 827 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,320 Speaker 5: And the problem you have with people who aren't hunters 828 00:40:56,400 --> 00:41:00,719 Speaker 5: is they can't anticipate yes, and if they can't, they're 829 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 5: gonna miss something that really needed to be seen by 830 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 5: the viewer. 831 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 1: But Okay, it's good. We're good. No, we're good. But 832 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:10,440 Speaker 1: but I don't want to I don't want you to 833 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 1: think by me using the term cinematography, I don't want 834 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 1: you to think that I'm talking about people who are 835 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 1: trying to arts stuff up. If you talk to these guys, 836 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:23,520 Speaker 1: they don't talk about they're not like, oh, it's not beautiful. 837 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 1: It's not that they talk about coverage. Right, Like you 838 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:32,239 Speaker 1: could be trained in photography, trained as a camera guy, whatever, 839 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 1: that that doesn't mean that you're like focused on that. 840 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: You're focused on that. You think you're gonna set everything 841 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,879 Speaker 1: up with the setting sun and the fog and right, 842 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 1: it's like coverage, did you get coverage?

When you're watching something that's 853 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 1: that's not great, maybe you got like the lights coming 854 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 1: on when you open the truck door and the next 855 00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,800 Speaker 1: thing there's a guy sitting on a tree. You missed 856 00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:37,440 Speaker 1: a bunch, Yeah, because you didn't get coverage and that 857 00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:41,759 Speaker 1: knowledge of coverage.

Turkeys and elk. 929 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:13,759 Speaker 5: I'm glad they don't come at the same time of year. 930 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:17,120 Speaker 5: But in this stage of my life upland hunting. That's 931 00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:20,880 Speaker 5: what got me into the shooting of sporting clays, and uh, 932 00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 5: I wanted to get better at shooting upland birds. There 933 00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:28,160 Speaker 5: were certain crossers that I would not shoot will primos, 934 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:32,000 Speaker 5: if that dove or that duck was coming left to 935 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 5: right because the way the winds we had to set 936 00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 5: up and the way the wind was on the on 937 00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:38,640 Speaker 5: the blind or whatever. I learned not to shoot at him. 938 00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:40,759 Speaker 1: I want to go hit him. Yeah, well, what the 939 00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:41,760 Speaker 1: hell you still shoot? 940 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,839 Speaker 5: You know, I mean, thirty forty fifty you just set 941 00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:47,719 Speaker 5: the shot out. I mean, I just, I just I 942 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:49,400 Speaker 5: just wanted to go shoot at him. Would I want't 943 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:49,880 Speaker 5: gonna hit him? 944 00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:53,800 Speaker 1: And so I would. I started shooting for the Claye 945 00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:55,960 Speaker 1: because I wanted to go to these people who knew 946 00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 1: how to shoot this stuff and teach me this is good? 947 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:01,799 Speaker 1: Can we the it's a good chance to talk about sure, 948 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,840 Speaker 1: so kind of the reason I've always wanted to have 949 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:07,239 Speaker 1: you on, and we've talked about having you on over 950 00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:10,680 Speaker 1: the years for various things.

Look over them and beyond them, say fifty yards. 1007 00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 1: Well, if you're look at how you're ever going to 1008 00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:02,200 Speaker 1: just hold them right out of the bushes, all right, smarty, 1009 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:07,760 Speaker 1: So your eyes come back to focus so much faster 1010 00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:09,200 Speaker 1: than out to focus. 1011 00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 5: So if I'm looking and solve focus and the quail rise, 1012 00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:15,160 Speaker 5: my eyes come back and see the flash. My eyes 1013 00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:18,799 Speaker 5: come back and grab the flash. Now, I don't look 1014 00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:21,640 Speaker 5: at the quail. I look at his beak, I look 1015 00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:24,359 Speaker 5: at his head. I look at you can. Some guys 1016 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:26,359 Speaker 5: are really good at being able to shoot only male 1017 00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:29,879 Speaker 5: bob whites rather than just fifty fifty it because they're 1018 00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:33,200 Speaker 5: looking that intensely and they pick out that bird. And 1019 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:38,120 Speaker 5: then your hands. Your eyes tell your brain where your 1020 00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:43,000 Speaker 5: hands go. It's no different than baseball. You don't look 1021 00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:47,239 Speaker 5: at the bat. You look at the ball, and that's 1022 00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 5: all you look at when you're throwing a football. 1023 00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:51,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good point, man. 1024 00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:54,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, when you're throwing a football and the guy's running, 1025 00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:57,840 Speaker 5: you're not looking at the ball. You're looking at the runner, 1026 00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:00,680 Speaker 5: and you're deciding how fast you gotta throw, how far 1027 00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,000 Speaker 5: you've got to throw it, at what angle you've got 1028 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:05,600 Speaker 5: to throw it so it will drop into the receiver's hands. 1029 00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:09,560 Speaker 5: Your brain calculates all that, and through repetition in practice, 1030 00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:12,239 Speaker 5: which is what sportingclays gives you, you learn to be 1031 00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:16,759 Speaker 5: able to execute that subconsciously. And so you become subconscious 1032 00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:18,719 Speaker 5: when that quail is down there, your eyes look out 1033 00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:21,439 Speaker 5: that you're ready, and you move and shoot and you're 1034 00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:25,560 Speaker 5: much more effective. And there's different techniques. Let's just say 1035 00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:29,279 Speaker 5: it's dove hunting or duck hunting. You've got what's called 1036 00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:33,279 Speaker 5: swing through, and here's you start behind the bird and 1037 00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:36,720 Speaker 5: you move past the bird. Your brain, you match speeds 1038 00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:39,319 Speaker 5: with the bird. Then you move your gun slightly ahead 1039 00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:41,200 Speaker 5: to the lead, and your brain tells you that's it, and. 1040 00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:41,840 Speaker 1: You pull the trigger. 1041 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:45,120 Speaker 5: Yep, that's technique one yeah, that's one yeah. And then 1042 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:48,719 Speaker 5: you've got maintained leads because of what the how far 1043 00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:52,320 Speaker 5: it was, whatever, You mount in front of the target, 1044 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:54,160 Speaker 5: match speeds with the target, and then. 1045 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:55,960 Speaker 1: Pull the trigger. That's my technique. Is that bad? 1046 00:51:56,480 --> 00:51:59,680 Speaker 5: Not necessarily, But if you can learn the all three techniques, 1047 00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:02,560 Speaker 5: you know, if you can learn how to swing through, 1048 00:52:03,360 --> 00:52:06,320 Speaker 5: how to maintain lead, and how to mount, own the 1049 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:09,160 Speaker 5: bird and stretch it all three, you will be a 1050 00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:11,800 Speaker 5: much better shot because they all come at different times 1051 00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:15,800 Speaker 5: that you should apply depending on a distance, angle, and speed. 1052 00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:19,800 Speaker 5: So how how far it is? You know how fast 1053 00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:23,200 Speaker 5: it is, and you know, uh and the angle is 1054 00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:23,719 Speaker 5: it a quarter? 1055 00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:25,800 Speaker 1: Is it straight away? Is it going straight up? What 1056 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:26,239 Speaker 1: is it? 1057 00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:26,840 Speaker 7: So? 1058 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:30,759 Speaker 5: I mean, I've gotten I've gotten crazy about this game. 1059 00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:33,040 Speaker 5: Anthony Matterez helped me tremendously. I went up there and 1060 00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:35,680 Speaker 5: took lessons as part of this book.

If he's coming 1116 00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:11,040 Speaker 5: into decoys, I'm I'm naming at his feet because he's 1117 00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:14,840 Speaker 5: coming down.

Depends on the steep. 1122 00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:30,279 Speaker 1: Whether it's a teal that's real fast and rising, if 1123 00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:31,240 Speaker 1: the duck's crossing. 1124 00:55:31,640 --> 00:55:36,680 Speaker 5: It depends on the speed.

Well, yeah, because now you wrote a 1142 00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:33,719 Speaker 1: book about it. Yeah, it's gonna be embarrassing when you miss. 1143 00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:35,960 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah. I want to tell 1144 00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:37,600 Speaker 1: you the worst shot for me, Maybe you can tell 1145 00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:41,160 Speaker 1: me what the problem is. Darks come in you know whatever, 1146 00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:44,640 Speaker 1: they're coming into decoys. Everybody shoots and then you get 1147 00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 1: the one that's like he's leaving, he's going up, he's 1148 00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:54,320 Speaker 1: going right or left, and he's going over your shoulder. 1149 00:56:54,880 --> 00:57:01,960 Speaker 1: So from my perspective, he's going Okay, that's hard. Okay. Now, 1150 00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:04,399 Speaker 1: sometimes maybe he's already been hit a little bit to see, 1151 00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:05,719 Speaker 1: especially when to here's the duck. 1152 00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:10,400 Speaker 5: Okay, go in this mount right behind him and follow 1153 00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:12,879 Speaker 5: his line, and when the gun passes his beak, pull 1154 00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:15,759 Speaker 5: the trigger. The speed of the gun will give you 1155 00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:19,640 Speaker 5: the lead. Mount own the duck, come right through and 1156 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 5: that gives you the line. And move right through and 1157 00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:25,520 Speaker 5: look at something on there. Look at his beak, look 1158 00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:27,919 Speaker 5: at his feet through something. Don't look at the duck, 1159 00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:30,320 Speaker 5: and do not look at the gun. It's just like 1160 00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:31,480 Speaker 5: when you hit a baseball. 1161 00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:33,160 Speaker 1: You're not looking at your bead at all. 1162 00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:38,480 Speaker 5: No, no, Now, the only time you would do that, 1163 00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:41,960 Speaker 5: The only time you would do that is if a 1164 00:57:42,120 --> 00:57:45,480 Speaker 5: low flying bird is coming in and he's close to 1165 00:57:45,560 --> 00:57:49,720 Speaker 5: the ground your gun. Your brain will confuse the dark 1166 00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:52,000 Speaker 5: color of the you see the gun. 1167 00:57:52,680 --> 00:57:53,480 Speaker 1: In your periphery. 1168 00:57:53,560 --> 00:57:56,160 Speaker 5: I'm gonna use this analogy. It's like it's like merging 1169 00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:59,560 Speaker 5: into traffic. You're not looking at your hood. You're looking 1170 00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:03,240 Speaker 5: at the track, and so you're timing your speed of 1171 00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:06,520 Speaker 5: your vehicle to either merge in front of a car 1172 00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:09,160 Speaker 5: or right behind it. That's what you're doing with a 1173 00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:12,480 Speaker 5: shot gun. You're taking your gun and you're matching speeds 1174 00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:15,439 Speaker 5: with the bird and then slightly moving ahead to pull 1175 00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:17,280 Speaker 5: the trigger that gives you the lead. 1176 00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:20,080 Speaker 1: All these analogies you're using, like when you throw a ball, 1177 00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:22,280 Speaker 1: you don't look at your arm. When you're driving your car, 1178 00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:24,640 Speaker 1: you don't look at your car right. 1179 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:26,960 Speaker 6: No, listen, when I got to shoot a little bit 1180 00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:29,360 Speaker 6: with an instructor in Latvia a couple of years ago. 1181 00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:34,480 Speaker 6: Anytime I've shot with an instructor and I'm I first thing, 1182 00:58:34,520 --> 00:58:36,600 Speaker 6: I'll tell him as well, not that good because I'm 1183 00:58:36,680 --> 00:58:39,520 Speaker 6: left eye dominant and I shoot right handed. And this 1184 00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:42,360 Speaker 6: guy he looked at me and goes, oh, So I 1185 00:58:42,440 --> 00:58:44,400 Speaker 6: was like, well, still sometimes I like to close my 1186 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:47,040 Speaker 6: left eye. It helps me line everything up. And he goes, oh, 1187 00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:49,160 Speaker 6: when you you play basketball at all? 1188 00:58:49,240 --> 00:58:50,600 Speaker 3: I go, yeah, decent shot. 1189 00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:50,760 Speaker 1: You know. 1190 00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:52,520 Speaker 3: He goes, do you close one eye when you shoot 1191 00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 3: your basketball? 1192 00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:54,840 Speaker 5: No? 1193 00:58:55,720 --> 00:59:01,520 Speaker 1: You know, no, I just that yeah, so very very free. 1194 00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:05,040 Speaker 5: People are a hundred percent left or right eye dominant, 1195 00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:07,800 Speaker 5: and there's a there's a test to do that. 1196 00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:10,320 Speaker 1: Did we show it in the book, so not to 1197 00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:14,080 Speaker 1: this one. So if I'm looking at you, you know 1198 00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:19,440 Speaker 1: no that that only shows you, which is okay. Because 1199 00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:23,960 Speaker 1: this is an audio thing, there's a video component which 1200 00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:25,360 Speaker 1: you can find What's Our What's. 1201 00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:29,960 Speaker 10: Our Meat Eater podcast network on YouTube. 1202 00:59:30,120 --> 00:59:32,640 Speaker 1: Make sure you hit the subscribe. It was also so 1203 00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:36,560 Speaker 1: from the ever since I was a little boy.

Because I don't understand huh, doud 1239 01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:13,400 Speaker 1: do the same thing to me? I'm trying to understand 1240 01:01:13,400 --> 01:01:13,880 Speaker 1: what he's seeing. 1241 01:01:13,880 --> 01:01:17,040 Speaker 5: Okay, So I'm going to point. I'm gonna you're you're 1242 01:01:17,120 --> 01:01:19,320 Speaker 5: trying to tell me. You're trying to tell me which 1243 01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:20,640 Speaker 5: one of my eyes is dominant? 1244 01:01:20,680 --> 01:01:23,760 Speaker 1: But I got both open. Oh yeah, you're closed. I 1245 01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:24,240 Speaker 1: am too. 1246 01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:26,680 Speaker 5: So I'm gonna point my finger at your right eye. 1247 01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:28,600 Speaker 5: Where is my finger lined up. 1248 01:01:28,560 --> 01:01:31,080 Speaker 1: On my face a little bit that way. 1249 01:01:30,960 --> 01:01:34,280 Speaker 10: Of center, looks that way to the left, Steve. 1250 01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:38,640 Speaker 1: Right eye, Will's right eye. I'm looking at you dead 1251 01:01:38,680 --> 01:01:41,320 Speaker 1: eye with both my eyes. It's on the bridge of 1252 01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:41,720 Speaker 1: your nose. 1253 01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:44,800 Speaker 5: Should be my finger should be lined up with my 1254 01:01:44,920 --> 01:01:48,680 Speaker 5: right eye. It's not right there. 1255 01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:53,040 Speaker 1: It's dead nuts on the bridge your nose. Okay, now 1256 01:01:53,240 --> 01:01:55,640 Speaker 1: now you got to you got two left eyes. Now 1257 01:01:55,760 --> 01:01:57,760 Speaker 1: now I'm pointing my finger with both eyes with my 1258 01:01:57,880 --> 01:02:00,240 Speaker 1: left hand. Now it says that way. 1259 01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:02,840 Speaker 5: So what you're doing, you end up you end up 1260 01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:06,880 Speaker 5: establishing somebody can be cross eye dominant and they get 1261 01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:07,400 Speaker 5: their both. 1262 01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:10,040 Speaker 1: So if it's on the middle of your bridge, you're 1263 01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:10,920 Speaker 1: seeing with. 1264 01:02:11,120 --> 01:02:13,240 Speaker 5: Both your eye, both your eyes. So that's that can 1265 01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:15,840 Speaker 5: be very hard for a shooter because it's brains does 1266 01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:19,880 Speaker 5: the brain doesn't know which eye to tell the hands 1267 01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:22,560 Speaker 5: where to go. So when you have when you're when 1268 01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:26,640 Speaker 5: you're dominant, you can be eighty percent dominant, ninety percent dominant. See, 1269 01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:31,040 Speaker 5: so it's very important to establish that. So you should 1270 01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:32,920 Speaker 5: establish that and One of the things you could do 1271 01:02:33,040 --> 01:02:34,640 Speaker 5: if you wanted to do, You could put a dot 1272 01:02:34,760 --> 01:02:36,680 Speaker 5: over your glasses. We talk about that in the book, 1273 01:02:37,240 --> 01:02:40,200 Speaker 5: to barely obscure your dominant eye a little bit. 1274 01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:41,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I've done that. 1275 01:02:41,440 --> 01:02:43,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, so that it makes your other eye your you're 1276 01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:47,120 Speaker 5: said left eye, your your left eyes dominant. 1277 01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:51,240 Speaker 1: But can we establish like a very basic thing you 1278 01:02:53,200 --> 01:02:55,760 Speaker 1: it's true, this is true right like when you're when 1279 01:02:55,800 --> 01:03:00,080 Speaker 1: you're wing shooting, there's no reason to be closed in 1280 01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:00,520 Speaker 1: the eyes. 1281 01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:02,480 Speaker 5: Well, I was going on to that, we got distracted 1282 01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:04,080 Speaker 5: a little bit. So if the bird is loaded the 1283 01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:07,320 Speaker 5: ground and coming in close, coming in right at you, 1284 01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:10,880 Speaker 5: the brain can confuse the barrel. You're seeing the barrel 1285 01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:13,160 Speaker 5: like the hood of your car. It's in your periphery. 1286 01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:16,880 Speaker 5: You don't really see it, but your brain is going well, 1287 01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:20,200 Speaker 5: and you think you're on the target and you miss, Well, 1288 01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:23,680 Speaker 5: that's a that's a spot shot. That's a spot on 1289 01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:26,560 Speaker 5: aim shot. You point it like a rifle. So for 1290 01:03:26,640 --> 01:03:30,160 Speaker 5: a coming straight at you. A lot of times in sportingclays, 1291 01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:32,160 Speaker 5: I was shutting my left eye because I want to 1292 01:03:32,280 --> 01:03:35,400 Speaker 5: make sure my gun's pointing right at that. There's no 1293 01:03:35,560 --> 01:03:37,120 Speaker 5: lead involved, you know. 1294 01:03:37,600 --> 01:03:40,440 Speaker 1: God then you're aiming at like you're shooting a turkey. 1295 01:03:40,720 --> 01:03:41,120 Speaker 1: That's right. 1296 01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:45,360 Speaker 5: So there are instances, and Anthony talks about it in 1297 01:03:45,520 --> 01:03:48,720 Speaker 5: his book Straight Shooting. He was a young guy, he 1298 01:03:48,960 --> 01:03:51,400 Speaker 5: was doing really well. He was down in Florida shooting 1299 01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:54,440 Speaker 5: in a major tournament, and I believe he shot. He came, 1300 01:03:54,600 --> 01:03:57,320 Speaker 5: he tied for six, but he was he was winning. 1301 01:03:57,720 --> 01:03:59,760 Speaker 5: And he got to the station with that low incoming 1302 01:04:00,640 --> 01:04:03,840 Speaker 5: and Dan Carlisle was an Olympic champion bunker trap and 1303 01:04:03,960 --> 01:04:09,080 Speaker 5: other disciplines, and he taught Anthony never to close the eye. 1304 01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:10,760 Speaker 5: And Anthony went back. 1305 01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:13,760 Speaker 1: He was tearful. I believe he was like eighteen years old. 1306 01:04:14,120 --> 01:04:16,560 Speaker 5: He was tearful. He was gonna win this tournament and 1307 01:04:17,120 --> 01:04:21,280 Speaker 5: he tied for six. He went home and thought about it, 1308 01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:23,360 Speaker 5: thought about it, went back to this hotel, thought about it, 1309 01:04:23,400 --> 01:04:25,720 Speaker 5: thought about it, and the next day he shot one 1310 01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:29,960 Speaker 5: hundred straight. He figured out that he needed to squint 1311 01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:32,440 Speaker 5: an eye or close it a little bit on these 1312 01:04:32,520 --> 01:04:36,320 Speaker 5: incoming straight birds to be positive where his brain was 1313 01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:37,880 Speaker 5: being told his gun was pointing. 1314 01:04:38,560 --> 01:04:38,880 Speaker 1: Hmmm. 1315 01:04:39,120 --> 01:04:42,960 Speaker 5: So there are disciplines and nuances within the game for 1316 01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:45,560 Speaker 5: different stuff. Just like you said, that's the way I shoot, 1317 01:04:45,600 --> 01:04:48,280 Speaker 5: you shoot and maintain lead. If you would mount on 1318 01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:50,120 Speaker 5: the bird on some of those then barely move in 1319 01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:52,040 Speaker 5: front of him, it gives you the line you're not 1320 01:04:52,520 --> 01:04:55,320 Speaker 5: when you mount online, you're taking out the fact that 1321 01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:58,320 Speaker 5: I'm too low or too high. You start right behind 1322 01:04:58,360 --> 01:04:59,880 Speaker 5: the bird and move straight through, so you're in the 1323 01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:01,479 Speaker 5: line with the flight of the bird. 1324 01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:02,440 Speaker 1: M hm. 1325 01:05:02,960 --> 01:05:07,200 Speaker 5: And that takes out fifty of your error over and under. 1326 01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:08,480 Speaker 1: Mm hmm. 1327 01:05:08,680 --> 01:05:11,360 Speaker 10: But Steve, that sounds exactly like what you've told me 1328 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:13,320 Speaker 10: in the past when you've taken me out. You're like, 1329 01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:18,560 Speaker 10: imagine a paint brush and you're painting beyond the bird. 1330 01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:20,280 Speaker 10: I don't think you told me to keep an eye 1331 01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:23,000 Speaker 10: on the dot. You're like, you're going beyond the bird, 1332 01:05:24,000 --> 01:05:26,960 Speaker 10: in front of it from the beak, and that's where 1333 01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:28,960 Speaker 10: you're shooting because the time that you know. 1334 01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:31,200 Speaker 1: Okay, So yeah, there's a lot of things in life 1335 01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:36,280 Speaker 1: where we tell people your thing fine, then you catch 1336 01:05:36,280 --> 01:05:39,760 Speaker 1: yourself not but yeah, like in my you know, and 1337 01:05:39,880 --> 01:05:41,640 Speaker 1: then in the heat of the moment or whatever, and 1338 01:05:41,720 --> 01:05:43,840 Speaker 1: you just might have not doing there's certain things you 1339 01:05:43,880 --> 01:05:46,480 Speaker 1: don't do, you know. But I've done enough where I 1340 01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:50,760 Speaker 1: can try different not as disciplined as you are. But 1341 01:05:50,800 --> 01:05:52,960 Speaker 1: I've done enough shooting where I know that in some 1342 01:05:53,160 --> 01:05:57,200 Speaker 1: try instances this and some instances that. But but you're 1343 01:05:57,240 --> 01:06:02,240 Speaker 1: talking about a very You're talking about really major shifts 1344 01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:05,880 Speaker 1: and strategy based on situations. And I think most shooters 1345 01:06:05,880 --> 01:06:09,520 Speaker 1: are not consciously yeah, thinking about not consciously going, I'm 1346 01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:11,720 Speaker 1: gonna use this method. Now, I'm gona use that method 1347 01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:13,960 Speaker 1: on that shot. I'm gonna use that method on that show. 1348 01:06:13,920 --> 01:06:19,200 Speaker 5: That brings you to understanding gunfit. So gunfit is not 1349 01:06:19,440 --> 01:06:21,720 Speaker 5: the number one thing, but if you want you to 1350 01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:24,800 Speaker 5: get to shooting a little bit, gunfit is major important 1351 01:06:25,080 --> 01:06:28,080 Speaker 5: because when you mount that gun, when you mount that gun, 1352 01:06:28,640 --> 01:06:31,440 Speaker 5: I should be pointing at what I'm aiming at. So 1353 01:06:31,960 --> 01:06:35,120 Speaker 5: when I'm helping somebody, I'll let them fit the gun, 1354 01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:37,320 Speaker 5: show me it's unloaded, and then I have them mounted 1355 01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:39,960 Speaker 5: and pointed at my right eye, and I can look 1356 01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:42,760 Speaker 5: down and see exactly where their eyes looking, so I 1357 01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:45,320 Speaker 5: can tell it if there's too much not enough comb 1358 01:06:45,360 --> 01:06:48,680 Speaker 5: height too. You know, the comb mite's too low, it's 1359 01:06:48,760 --> 01:06:52,320 Speaker 5: too high, the pitch is wrong. And women are different 1360 01:06:52,360 --> 01:06:54,960 Speaker 5: than men, They're built different. So the heel to toe 1361 01:06:55,400 --> 01:06:59,080 Speaker 5: of the butt plate and how it's angled can hurt 1362 01:06:59,480 --> 01:07:01,560 Speaker 5: and it also so if a gun hurts you, it 1363 01:07:01,640 --> 01:07:04,120 Speaker 5: doesn't fit you. If it hurts your face or your shoulder, 1364 01:07:04,720 --> 01:07:09,840 Speaker 5: it probably doesn't fit you. And everybody, most everybody shoots 1365 01:07:09,960 --> 01:07:13,360 Speaker 5: too hot a shells. They shoot way too much. 1366 01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:17,080 Speaker 1: Pa, there's not better, no no news to me. 1367 01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:22,480 Speaker 5: I can show you right now George Digweed shooting clays 1368 01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:29,520 Speaker 5: at a one hundred and thirty yards with not too 1369 01:07:29,600 --> 01:07:30,200 Speaker 5: hot of shells. 1370 01:07:30,840 --> 01:07:33,680 Speaker 1: I can't picture that. You see the video kind of 1371 01:07:33,720 --> 01:07:35,959 Speaker 1: like lobbing it in there. Man, you're holding for drop. 1372 01:07:36,200 --> 01:07:38,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, he is doing that too, but it's incredible. 1373 01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:41,680 Speaker 1: Are you ever holding for drop on ducks only. 1374 01:07:41,520 --> 01:07:44,560 Speaker 5: If they're seventy five eighty yards or further? Okay, you 1375 01:07:44,680 --> 01:07:45,600 Speaker 5: shoot slightly. 1376 01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:46,920 Speaker 1: Off, so that's not the thing you're not. 1377 01:07:46,960 --> 01:07:48,880 Speaker 5: You don't shoot at him that far. Yeah, you don't 1378 01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:49,720 Speaker 5: shoot at him that far. 1379 01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:53,640 Speaker 6: Here's one thing I'd like to ask you a lot 1380 01:07:53,680 --> 01:07:56,760 Speaker 6: of times I've heard from water fowlers that a good 1381 01:07:56,840 --> 01:07:59,080 Speaker 6: way to know if the duck is close enough to 1382 01:07:59,320 --> 01:08:01,600 Speaker 6: shoot at is when you can see their eye. 1383 01:08:02,240 --> 01:08:04,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, you've heard that that's really close. That's good, that's good, 1384 01:08:05,040 --> 01:08:05,400 Speaker 1: that's good. 1385 01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:08,160 Speaker 6: But it means that like, there's that mandatory or do 1386 01:08:08,240 --> 01:08:10,240 Speaker 6: you feel like, oh no, I could easily shoot when 1387 01:08:10,320 --> 01:08:12,320 Speaker 6: I can't see can't make out the ducks eye. 1388 01:08:12,320 --> 01:08:14,040 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, you can see the color of the head. 1389 01:08:14,120 --> 01:08:16,800 Speaker 5: You can just mallards are great because you could see 1390 01:08:16,840 --> 01:08:19,280 Speaker 5: the green head from the hen. You got something to 1391 01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:24,599 Speaker 5: focus on. But typically you learn like bow hunting. Yeah, 1392 01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:28,240 Speaker 5: when before rangefinders got so easy to use and so forth, 1393 01:08:28,600 --> 01:08:30,640 Speaker 5: if I can look at that tree and I can 1394 01:08:30,720 --> 01:08:33,439 Speaker 5: see the distinguishing mark bark on that tree with my 1395 01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:35,800 Speaker 5: twenty twenty vision, twenty fifteen vision, when if I can 1396 01:08:35,880 --> 01:08:39,479 Speaker 5: see that, I know that that tree is thirty five 1397 01:08:39,560 --> 01:08:40,280 Speaker 5: yards are closer. 1398 01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:42,960 Speaker 1: Hmm. That's a good little trick. 1399 01:08:43,240 --> 01:08:45,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, but you've got to know your eyes to be 1400 01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:46,960 Speaker 5: able to do that. 1401 01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:47,880 Speaker 1: That's a great trick. 1402 01:08:47,920 --> 01:08:50,240 Speaker 5: And here's here's here's a perfect example to kind of 1403 01:08:50,280 --> 01:08:52,479 Speaker 5: help you put some of this lead and so forth. 1404 01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:56,639 Speaker 5: Let's say that birds doing that. Okay, he's flying pretty 1405 01:08:56,680 --> 01:08:58,680 Speaker 5: fast and he's I'm just shooting as a way to 1406 01:08:58,720 --> 01:09:01,960 Speaker 5: say goodbye thirty yards Okay, So what you do is. 1407 01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:05,080 Speaker 1: Showing him out here up here comes the bird over 1408 01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:09,800 Speaker 1: your head. Oh, you mount right behind him and when 1409 01:09:09,840 --> 01:09:12,920 Speaker 1: you move straight down the line, your hands, your gun 1410 01:09:13,720 --> 01:09:17,080 Speaker 1: will hide the bird. But what you're doing is, if 1411 01:09:17,160 --> 01:09:19,639 Speaker 1: the bird's flying at twenty miles an hour, you want 1412 01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:21,680 Speaker 1: to move your gun at twenty one or twenty two 1413 01:09:21,760 --> 01:09:22,400 Speaker 1: miles an hour. 1414 01:09:22,720 --> 01:09:26,040 Speaker 5: So you combine. And when you combine, you keep moving 1415 01:09:26,120 --> 01:09:28,360 Speaker 5: your gun and you bend at the waist and. 1416 01:09:28,439 --> 01:09:31,840 Speaker 1: You pull the trigger, and he will crumple when you 1417 01:09:31,920 --> 01:09:35,320 Speaker 1: pull that trigger. Are you already pulling the second shot? 1418 01:09:36,320 --> 01:09:39,599 Speaker 10: No, okay, you're not, like, because he knows he's gonna 1419 01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:39,840 Speaker 10: hit it. 1420 01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:47,280 Speaker 1: No, this is not I don't know if this is 1421 01:09:47,320 --> 01:09:51,120 Speaker 1: a this is a uh, this is at assary, This 1422 01:09:51,160 --> 01:09:54,040 Speaker 1: isn't a wing shooting question. But uh, in your mind, 1423 01:09:54,240 --> 01:09:59,400 Speaker 1: what's a far away turkey? What's a fire shot? Forty yards? Okay? 1424 01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:02,840 Speaker 1: I won't shoot one past forty just because it's not 1425 01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:05,160 Speaker 1: the game, right, and it's not the game, and it's 1426 01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:05,679 Speaker 1: not fair. 1427 01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:08,120 Speaker 5: There's too many little things that can go wrong. Okay, 1428 01:10:08,800 --> 01:10:13,200 Speaker 5: but it might be forty five, but I misjudged the distance. Really, Yeah, 1429 01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:18,240 Speaker 5: I shoot tss. I shoot a twenty gauge youth eleven 1430 01:10:18,280 --> 01:10:19,920 Speaker 5: eighty seven with a silencer. 1431 01:10:21,479 --> 01:10:24,160 Speaker 1: What do you use for using an optic or to 1432 01:10:24,240 --> 01:10:24,920 Speaker 1: shoot beads. 1433 01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:28,320 Speaker 5: So, because the silencer is a big can, I had 1434 01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:32,120 Speaker 5: to put a I put a Bushnell hologram kind of sight. 1435 01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:35,120 Speaker 5: It's kind of weird. No matter where your head is, 1436 01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:37,479 Speaker 5: as long as the dots on there, it kills it. 1437 01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:39,960 Speaker 1: Dude, I was into those, well, no, I wasn't.

Yeah, yeah, Uh, 1597 01:18:30,760 --> 01:18:34,759 Speaker 1: will brought me a gift. The position of this suggests 1598 01:18:34,840 --> 01:18:39,120 Speaker 1: that you're trying to take credit for writing Jeremiah Johnson. 1599 01:18:39,160 --> 01:18:43,920 Speaker 1: But it's just your email address up top. That's it's 1600 01:18:43,960 --> 01:18:49,160 Speaker 1: the entire script, Yeah, for Jeremiah Johnson. So the v O, 1601 01:18:49,760 --> 01:18:51,519 Speaker 1: there's a little vo.

Well, 1605 01:19:03,640 --> 01:19:06,240 Speaker 1: the reason he can't tell, but it's like it's one 1606 01:19:06,240 --> 01:19:08,040 Speaker 1: of those things where people debate what said. 1607 01:19:07,920 --> 01:19:11,080 Speaker 5: Yes, So what inspired me was when when delle gue 1608 01:19:11,560 --> 01:19:14,160 Speaker 5: has come up on the Indians. After he's after the 1609 01:19:14,240 --> 01:19:17,080 Speaker 5: Mormons buried him in the sand and he got dug out, 1610 01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:21,160 Speaker 5: you know, not the Mormons turn Mormons, part Mormon, but anyway, 1611 01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:24,720 Speaker 5: you know, he finally gets there and he goes in 1612 01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:27,120 Speaker 5: there to kill him.

Watch you'll find it. 1648 01:21:06,479 --> 01:21:07,160 Speaker 5: Go for random. 1649 01:21:08,200 --> 01:21:09,920 Speaker 1: I gotta double check all these sources. 1650 01:21:10,280 --> 01:21:10,760 Speaker 3: That's true. 1651 01:21:10,840 --> 01:21:12,679 Speaker 1: He's going back to the primary source work. 1652 01:21:13,040 --> 01:21:13,360 Speaker 5: Okay. 1653 01:21:14,400 --> 01:21:14,519 Speaker 4: Uh. 1654 01:21:15,600 --> 01:21:20,400 Speaker 1: Jeremiah Johnson is the Spanish. The Mexican American tales name 1655 01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:25,400 Speaker 1: of the war, Randall Mexican American following the Mexican American War. 1656 01:21:25,600 --> 01:21:29,120 Speaker 1: He wants to go and be a mountain man. But 1657 01:21:29,280 --> 01:21:33,320 Speaker 1: he arrives, and he arrives in the Northern Rockies and 1658 01:21:33,760 --> 01:21:39,040 Speaker 1: the heyday's over, the beaver trade is wound down. He 1659 01:21:39,200 --> 01:21:43,000 Speaker 1: just wants to be largely left alone. He encounters these 1660 01:21:43,280 --> 01:21:46,120 Speaker 1: number of these great characters. He sort of acts very 1661 01:21:46,280 --> 01:21:50,080 Speaker 1: accidentally against his better judgment. Starts like a little family. 1662 01:21:50,800 --> 01:21:58,400 Speaker 1: He winds up not accidentally, like against his wishes. He's 1663 01:21:58,520 --> 01:22:00,560 Speaker 1: thrust in due position where he has to adopt a 1664 01:22:00,600 --> 01:22:05,000 Speaker 1: young child, also against his wishes, and against his better judgment. 1665 01:22:05,080 --> 01:22:07,200 Speaker 1: He's thrust in the position where he has to become married. 1666 01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:07,880 Speaker 5: That's correct. 1667 01:22:07,920 --> 01:22:10,240 Speaker 1: So now he's like has a wife that he didn't want, 1668 01:22:10,880 --> 01:22:13,080 Speaker 1: he has a child that he doesn't want, and he 1669 01:22:13,200 --> 01:22:18,040 Speaker 1: tries to establish a life for them. Spoiler alert, they're killed, 1670 01:22:20,920 --> 01:22:23,840 Speaker 1: and it sets him on a quest for vengeance. And 1671 01:22:24,560 --> 01:22:28,479 Speaker 1: through time his thirst for vengeance is sated, and and 1672 01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:33,960 Speaker 1: he's just now like a sort of ghost of a 1673 01:22:34,040 --> 01:22:37,000 Speaker 1: man and living alone in the mountains. And I will 1674 01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:40,920 Speaker 1: say that the vengeance in this case was really the crows, 1675 01:22:41,960 --> 01:22:45,080 Speaker 1: because he made his amends when he went and kill 1676 01:22:45,120 --> 01:22:47,439 Speaker 1: the people that killed his wife and his kid. That's true. 1677 01:22:47,760 --> 01:22:53,040 Speaker 5: And he left one and that one then reports back 1678 01:22:53,120 --> 01:22:56,599 Speaker 5: to paints his shirt red, which is the headed guy, 1679 01:22:57,320 --> 01:23:00,400 Speaker 5: head of the tribe, and he says, and the drenth 1680 01:23:00,600 --> 01:23:04,840 Speaker 5: of them is built on one warrior, and so they 1681 01:23:04,920 --> 01:23:06,040 Speaker 5: send one warrior at. 1682 01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:09,320 Speaker 1: A time to kill Jeremiah. Yep, and he is able 1683 01:23:09,400 --> 01:23:11,479 Speaker 1: to kill everyone that he sent after you. 1684 01:23:11,680 --> 01:23:17,479 Speaker 8: Okay, if I may interject, there's no specific year that's 1685 01:23:17,520 --> 01:23:18,720 Speaker 8: pinpointed to the movie, but. 1686 01:23:18,960 --> 01:23:21,559 Speaker 1: I know that if there was, we wouldn't be arguing 1687 01:23:21,560 --> 01:23:22,840 Speaker 1: about it. I'd be holding it right in my hand. 1688 01:23:22,920 --> 01:23:26,880 Speaker 8: That's fair because he was a veteran of the Mexican 1689 01:23:26,880 --> 01:23:30,760 Speaker 8: American War, and he's still wearing his cavalry pants when 1690 01:23:30,800 --> 01:23:33,479 Speaker 8: he went into the mountains Mexican American War eighteen forty six, 1691 01:23:33,560 --> 01:23:34,280 Speaker 8: eighteen forty eight. 1692 01:23:34,360 --> 01:23:34,920 Speaker 5: Okay, I didn't know. 1693 01:23:35,520 --> 01:23:40,920 Speaker 1: He encounters a man.

There's one distinct, singular problem in 1742 01:26:38,520 --> 01:26:42,280 Speaker 1: the whole movie. One imperfection he's roasting a rabbit on 1743 01:26:42,360 --> 01:26:46,519 Speaker 1: a stick. The end of the movie, it's just sad. 1744 01:26:47,280 --> 01:26:49,800 Speaker 1: Everything's sad and depressing. He's way up in the high 1745 01:26:49,840 --> 01:26:52,360 Speaker 1: country by himself, bundled in his furs. He's got a 1746 01:26:52,400 --> 01:26:55,280 Speaker 1: little fire going and he's cooking a rabbit. The one 1747 01:26:55,360 --> 01:26:58,160 Speaker 1: problem in the movie Randall, what is it? Do you know? 1748 01:26:59,120 --> 01:27:01,960 Speaker 1: Oak beagles No. When he goes to get he goes 1749 01:27:02,000 --> 01:27:03,599 Speaker 1: to pull a leg from the rabbit and it comes 1750 01:27:03,640 --> 01:27:05,719 Speaker 1: off as though it's tender. Mmmm. 1751 01:27:07,120 --> 01:27:07,880 Speaker 5: It's like it's. 1752 01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:12,160 Speaker 1: It's no way. They almost got to the end with that. 1753 01:27:12,280 --> 01:27:14,160 Speaker 1: If I would have been there as a consultant, I 1754 01:27:14,200 --> 01:27:17,080 Speaker 1: would have said he needs to really try to pull 1755 01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:19,800 Speaker 1: hard and can't get it off, and eventually tries to 1756 01:27:19,840 --> 01:27:22,840 Speaker 1: cut that leg off because I don't care how you 1757 01:27:22,960 --> 01:27:24,120 Speaker 1: cook a contail rabbit on. 1758 01:27:24,160 --> 01:27:29,720 Speaker 3: A fire, so you think it was a like it 1759 01:27:29,920 --> 01:27:31,559 Speaker 3: was pre cut or was a farm raised. 1760 01:27:31,560 --> 01:27:36,000 Speaker 1: The rabbit reaches out bearcrock. Chris Lap pulls up. Ask him, 1761 01:27:37,600 --> 01:27:42,760 Speaker 1: everything's unspoken this movie. Ask him what's on the spit? 1762 01:27:44,840 --> 01:27:52,000 Speaker 1: Chris Lap asks Jeremia Johnson what's on particular. Jeremiah Johnson says, no, 1763 01:27:52,200 --> 01:27:54,800 Speaker 1: who guess what? Yeah, Chris Lap asked Jeremi Johnson, what's 1764 01:27:54,880 --> 01:27:57,880 Speaker 1: on the spit grown particular? And he says to him, 1765 01:27:57,880 --> 01:28:01,120 Speaker 1: he replies, have you grown particular? And he says, only 1766 01:28:01,160 --> 01:28:05,439 Speaker 1: about the company I keep, mm hmm. But he throws he. 1767 01:28:07,439 --> 01:28:11,519 Speaker 5: He says, not about my feeding, just the company. 1768 01:28:11,640 --> 01:28:14,439 Speaker 1: That's just the company I keep. But he's willing to 1769 01:28:14,520 --> 01:28:17,160 Speaker 1: come talk to Johnson. Johnson then removes the leg of 1770 01:28:17,200 --> 01:28:20,080 Speaker 1: the rabbit and it's just too easy. It's always tripped 1771 01:28:20,120 --> 01:28:20,320 Speaker 1: me up. 1772 01:28:20,360 --> 01:28:21,800 Speaker 11: Maybe he had an instant. 1773 01:28:24,080 --> 01:28:26,920 Speaker 1: Yeah it. If he pulled it off, I'd be like, yeah, 1774 01:28:26,920 --> 01:28:31,760 Speaker 1: this looks great. There's a movie I want to get 1775 01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:34,320 Speaker 1: into subtlety.

Nothing. 1783 01:28:53,720 --> 01:28:58,719 Speaker 1: In the end of the movie, the brother and sister 1784 01:28:58,800 --> 01:29:00,640 Speaker 1: tried to come together, but he's too messed up, and 1785 01:29:02,240 --> 01:29:04,840 Speaker 1: the sister doesn't want the brother around her children, so 1786 01:29:05,120 --> 01:29:07,559 Speaker 1: he's got to go away.

March is a money month down below. 1799 01:29:53,240 --> 01:29:58,600 Speaker 5: Some folks like it mostly I hope you will farewell. 1800 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:04,080 Speaker 1: No, you left out, he says.

Right, 1802 01:30:07,080 --> 01:30:09,360 Speaker 1: It's just left is an open question. They don't know that. 1803 01:30:09,720 --> 01:30:12,960 Speaker 1: They're so out there now and so removed from anything 1804 01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:16,280 Speaker 1: to say March. I don't believe April. Yeah, he goes, March. 1805 01:30:16,400 --> 01:30:19,800 Speaker 1: Maybe I don't believe April.
