Uh. 42 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: I actually went up one king and walk this track 43 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: for a half a mile. I keep looking at it. 44 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 1: I'm like, so, bitch, it's got to be a fox. 45 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm not seeing the claws, which would tell 46 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: me it's a fox or a coyo, you know. But 47 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: at the same time, I can't catch a leading toe 48 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,359 Speaker 1: to really tell me that it's a bobcat. I keep 49 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 1: looking at it. 50 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 2: Let it narrow down to those three things. 51 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: Though I was thinking fox or bobcat because it was 52 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 1: pretty small. 53 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,359 Speaker 3: It is a deep snow, making it like hard to 54 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 3: tell you. 55 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: No, it was on the trail, and sometimes you know 56 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: when you're out not under trees. It was a couple 57 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: of inches, but just under the trees, it might have 58 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: been just a skiff. So I got all versions of 59 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:48,839 Speaker 1: this track because I walked. He was on the trail 60 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: for half a mile. Turns out it was a she 61 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 1: and uh. Luckily I took a picture and sent it 62 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 1: to Jake because we hadn't hooked up yet, and I'm like, 63 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: what do you think fox? You know, the picture doesn't 64 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: go through and he keeps texting me back I didn't 65 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: get the picture. I didn't get the picture. I'm like, 66 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 1: I think it's a fox. So I like, check another 67 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 1: canyon and then I drive to meet him and a 68 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: separate canyon. Right when I get there, the picture finally 69 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: goes through and he's like, dude, bobcat, let's go back 70 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: to there. I'm like, all right, let's go. 71 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 3: Do they have the same kind of gate Fox and Bobcat? 72 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: No, it's more like a lion. You know where they 73 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: direct registered right where they place each pad in the 74 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: next pad. 75 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 2: Are there are there any other clues besides a track 76 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 2: that you could come across, Like what if you found 77 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 2: some crap? Would that give you any clues? 78 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 4: Or no? Mmm, not me? 79 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe some other expert. Yeah, but no, it's all 80 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: in the track and the gate and the maybe the yeah, 81 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: the length of the gate, the stride. So you guys 82 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: go back, but yeah, we go back there and cut 83 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: the dogs loose on it and they run it for 84 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: I don't know, not far four hundred yards and they 85 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 1: actually went back towards the truck and they were basically 86 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: three hundred yards above the above the truck, and they 87 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: treated it all together, which I explained in the post yesterday, 88 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: I put on the Instagram that Mingus has hasn't caught 89 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: a bobcat yet on his own, and it's a big deal. 90 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: They're a lot harder to catch than a lion, much 91 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: much harder. I can explain if you like. But so 92 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: that hasn't happened yet. Last time we caught a bobcat 93 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: it was again with Jake and these same dogs, and 94 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: I've talked about this before they're superstars. I mean, it's 95 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: like when you go out with them, you're getting to play, 96 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: you know, pickup ball on your team. You've got Lebron 97 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 1: and MJ. And last time Mingus was five to ten 98 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: minutes late getting to the tree. In a way, it 99 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: was good because he instead of me tooing and hearing 100 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: the dogs barking, treed and picking up his head and 101 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 1: running over there and going. 102 00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, you got to find a better term for that, 103 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 2: and me too carry on. 104 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Though? 105 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 2: Huh? 106 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: He keeps to the track and works the track all 107 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 1: the way to the tree and then goes all right, yeah, sweet, 108 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 1: I'm here too. Well, yesterday they according to the GPS, 109 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 1: they all got there together. They all treed together. And 110 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: so I feel like I could give Mingus credit for 111 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: like a legit bobcat catch. 112 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's officially award that one to Mingus. Yeah, and 113 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 2: then you shot it. 114 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: I shot it about a fifteen pound female beautiful and yeah, 115 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: Jake's gonna come over night help me tube skin it. 116 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,600 Speaker 2: How often are you passing on bobcats when you treat one? Never? 117 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: I we haven't treed one now, Jake, who hunts a 118 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 1: lot more than I do. I don't know how many 119 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 1: he's treed. He said he's only killed one this winter, 120 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 1: but I'm guessing he's probably treed ten others and he's 121 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: let him all go because they were probably either females 122 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: or too small. He's looking to kill mature male. 123 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 2: And Phil has now pulled up the video, oh, of 124 00:05:58,040 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 2: the end of the hunt. 125 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: No, this is the mountain lion hunt from the week prior. Okay, sorry, honest, No, 126 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: that's okay. 127 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 2: Do you ever get a bobcat or anything up a 128 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 2: tree and you just can't find it up there because 129 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 2: it's getting from view. 130 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 1: Funny you say that, especially with bobcats. And I found 131 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: that out with like three weeks ago when my wife 132 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 1: and I went we treed a mountain lion, a female 133 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: in her kitten. The kitten was a couple hundred yards 134 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: away in a different tree. And the thing they have, 135 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 1: it's a problem with mingus because he trees him on 136 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,599 Speaker 1: the scent. Right. He's like, I know they went to 137 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: this tree, track goes up this tree, but I can't 138 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: see him. He trees hard for about an hour just 139 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 1: on that scent, ok. And then when he can't find it, 140 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: he starts to get lose confidence and he wants to 141 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 1: be treeing or wants to be running a track or something, 142 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: so he starts running the track back out and searching 143 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: coming back to the track. So when we went to 144 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: the kittens tree, I'm walking up to it, going, man, 145 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 1: he slick treed me, which is the term meaning that 146 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: your dog is barking treed, but there's nothing in it. 147 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 1: I had to get all the way around the tree 148 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: and get eye level with that kitten until I could 149 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: find it. But I was able to do that and 150 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: only be fifteen feet from it. This bobcat yesterday. It 151 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: took Jake and I walking around in circles for probably 152 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: fifteen to twenty minutes until we finally spotted it. 153 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 2: Did the dog see it the whole time? 154 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: They never saw it, and so they kind of had 155 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: done before we got there. They had left the tree, 156 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: tried to thinking that there's must be a different out, 157 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 1: so they ran back on the same trail, kind of 158 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: searched around for a little bit one hundred yards away 159 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: and then said nope, it's this way, and they came 160 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: back to the tree. Eventually, what happens if they there 161 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: long enough and if you have the right wind, scent 162 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: thermal conditions, the scent from that animal will drop down 163 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: and he's thirty yards up there. I mean, he's, you know, 164 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: ninety feet up in a tree way up there. But 165 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: that scent drops down and all of a sudden it 166 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: hits them. So they'll be kind of searching around on 167 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: the ground a little bit like, yeah, I don't know, 168 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: I don't know, and then all son, that centle hit him, 169 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: and all three of them boo boo boom, you know, 170 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: just blow up on it.

Last thing for show and tell 650 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 2: is what I brought today. And this is one of 651 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 2: my favorite white tails that I have ever killed, because 652 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 2: he has a super unique rack. I killed this buck 653 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 2: on opening day of South Dakota's rifle season in twenty sixteen. 654 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 2: It was the last like five minutes of shooting light. 655 00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,239 Speaker 2: It was a blizzard, and this this buck was at 656 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 2: like one hundred yards just showed up on the edge 657 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 2: of this cornfield I was hunting, and I didn't have 658 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 2: a great look at him. I was like, man, there 659 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 2: is something weird with this deer. And I had to 660 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 2: decide kind of right then if I was going to 661 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 2: shoot him or not. I could see one side. On 662 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 2: one side, he has just a perfect standard five point 663 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 2: antler that looks like millions of deer walking around North 664 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 2: America right now. That was the side I had a 665 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 2: very good look at, and I was trying to pick 666 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 2: up what was happening on his other side. And I 667 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 2: didn't have a great idea until after I had actually 668 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 2: shot him and got up to him, and then I 669 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 2: still didn't fully understand it until I had skinned him, 670 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 2: just what was going on here? So one side the 671 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 2: standard five point side, the other side he has this 672 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 2: mutant little four point antler, and then underneath that he 673 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 2: has what I would consider probably be an extra main beam. 674 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,280 Speaker 2: It's a twelve inch dagger that comes out of the 675 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 2: same pedicle. And then he's got another four inch antler 676 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 2: that is crawling across his skull towards his other normal antler. 677 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 2: And this this thing is just super goofy. I've showed 678 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:44,719 Speaker 2: it to some biologists about like, what do you think 679 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 2: happened here? And there's some common answers that they'll give you. 680 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 2: One of them is that deer will have not just deer, 681 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 2: but elk as well moose. They'll have abnormal antler growth 682 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 2: if they have an injury to one of their legs 683 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 2: because it stricts some blood flow or messes with their 684 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 2: blood vessels, and usually then the other antler opposite of 685 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 2: that leg injury will grow something funky. This year didn't 686 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 2: have anything like that. He was totally normal. I've shot 687 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 2: deer with limps and gates and injuries before. This buck 688 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 2: seemed quite healthy. So then the other answers that they'll 689 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 2: give you is they had an injury to their pedicle 690 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 2: down here, and that could have happened while he was 691 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 2: in Velvet that year, and this might have been just 692 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 2: a one time thing that he threw this rack, or 693 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 2: it could have been permanent damage. I'll never know. I 694 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 2: didn't have any history with this buck. But maybe my 695 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 2: favorite thing about this year is that I don't remember 696 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 2: when I scored him. I scored him after I'd skinn 697 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 2: him out. He was in the one forties. But this antler, 698 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 2: it was like sixty some inches of antler when you're 699 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 2: scoring him. The other antler was only one inch difference. 700 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 2: They almost scored the exactly. 701 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 3: I was just gonna say, like, it's interesting, how on that? 702 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:00,640 Speaker 3: What would be his side? 703 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 1: Uh huh? 704 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 3: You know you got you got these like dinky little 705 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 3: times here. 706 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 2: It's like this care that one is kind of loose. 707 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 2: He was fighting with this one. 708 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that one, Like this thing suck the energy 709 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: out of this though totally, you know what I mean. 710 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:18,719 Speaker 2: And I asked a biologist. I was like, so, what 711 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 2: was he just destined to throw the same amount of 712 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 2: antlers no matter how it came out, with what shape? 713 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 2: He was going to grow, and they said, no, that 714 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 2: was just a coincidence, more than likely. But this is 715 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 2: this is one of my favorite white tails that I've 716 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:31,759 Speaker 2: ever killed. 717 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:34,759 Speaker 1: Because did you know he existed before you saw him? 718 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 2: Had no history with this deer. He had actually my 719 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:40,920 Speaker 2: dad had a tag that year as well. He was 720 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,799 Speaker 2: hunting about a half mile away, and this buck had 721 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 2: walked by him that evening and it was through some 722 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 2: timber and he didn't have a good look at it either. 723 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 2: And he was with my brother who did not have 724 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 2: a tag, and and they both also had a conversation 725 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:56,359 Speaker 2: like what was up with that deer? There was something 726 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:58,799 Speaker 2: goofy going on? Or like was there another smaller buck 727 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 2: next to him that we just like couldn't get a 728 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 2: good look at his antlers? But this is one of 729 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 2: my favorite deer I've ever killed. All Right, that is 730 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,279 Speaker 2: it for Show and Tell today.

I 763 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,879 Speaker 2: was probably fourteen years old. I was on a deer hunt. 764 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 2: I think it was around Christmas. We had to go 765 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:47,279 Speaker 2: to church that night, and I fell asleep while my 766 00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 2: dad and I were sitting there. And I didn't know 767 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 2: this until later. I woke up because a raccoon was 768 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:55,359 Speaker 2: walking by at some point. Didn't kill anything. But later 769 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 2: on my dad had told my mom, I don't think 770 00:36:58,760 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 2: Spencer's going to be a hunt too. 771 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 1: Just don't. 772 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 2: Think this is for him. So that was my first 773 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 2: ever dear hunt. But but I proved him wrong. 774 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:08,719 Speaker 1: Great. 775 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 10: We have a question from Rashad, who is asking for 776 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 10: tips on identifying critter burrows. This is I don't know 777 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 10: if you guys have any of these.

I like to tell Steve 800 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 2: this sometimes because it makes him feel old. But I 801 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 2: read his first book when I was in college. So 802 00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:24,319 Speaker 2: that's that's like Scavenger's Guide. 803 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:29,799 Speaker 3: No, it was the well, it was the volume one 804 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 3: of the hunt Fish Small Small Game Volume one or 805 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:35,840 Speaker 3: Big Game.

Capstick? Yeah, the Robert 814 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 3: Ruart spell. 815 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:07,319 Speaker 2: Like Chapstick, which is weird, right, I'm thinking of something else? 816 00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, Robert good.

He's asking if he should hunt 823 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 10: this evening or focus on a morning hunt after a 824 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 10: possible storm hunt both. 825 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,879 Speaker 2: Uh So this this snow storm is coming at six am, 826 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 2: should I hunt this evening or focus the morning hunt? 827 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:49,040 Speaker 2: I feel like a lot of big buck killers would 828 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:51,400 Speaker 2: tell you that white tails know when there is a 829 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:53,839 Speaker 2: front coming, and they will act on that and they'll 830 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:57,239 Speaker 2: be on their feet more. It would take you know, 831 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 2: a lot of tracking and journaling to act actually prove 832 00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 2: that out, But like I said, common white tail hunting 833 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 2: knowledge would say that they're really going to be moving 834 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,960 Speaker 2: this evening because they also know what the forecast is. 835 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:13,720 Speaker 1: I found that to be true. And then like during 836 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,320 Speaker 1: this storm, sure you can go and find them, but 837 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 1: it can just be kind of miserable and they're not 838 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 1: on their feet. Doesn't seem like quite as much. They 839 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,879 Speaker 1: can be huddled in some hole somewhere. But right when 840 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 1: it breaks, it's gonna be good. 841 00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 10: Yeah, anything else, Phil, Yeah, we got a couple more, 842 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,880 Speaker 10: but let's just do one for now. I guess this 843 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 10: is a question for Yannis or anybody, but Nate's asking 844 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:36,319 Speaker 10: if there's a price difference if for a pillow mount. 845 00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:39,040 Speaker 1: I don't know what the price difference is, but that 846 00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:41,759 Speaker 1: pillow amount, in my mind, was not cheap. It was 847 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:46,120 Speaker 1: about fourteen hundred dollars. Okay, gotcha, which is. 848 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:49,359 Speaker 3: Probably what you pay for like an elk shoulder mount 849 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 3: something like that. 850 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, you've know, well we did. I've only shoulder mount 851 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,680 Speaker 2: in one critter in my life, but I would know 852 00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 2: because we had a trivia question one time about the 853 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:00,399 Speaker 2: average price of a shoulder mount. I think I looked 854 00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:04,719 Speaker 2: at like twenty different taxidermists all across the country, and 855 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 2: I don't remember the exact number, but it was like 856 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:09,920 Speaker 2: six hundred eighty seven dollars something like that was the 857 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:13,120 Speaker 2: average price. So you get, you know, a couple big 858 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:17,120 Speaker 2: old white tail shoulder mounted or one bobcat pillow. I 859 00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:20,319 Speaker 2: think I'd go with the bobcat pillow. Those are significantly more. 860 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:24,240 Speaker 1: Rare, Yeah, and much easier to move around. 861 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:28,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, Like if you got a life size mount of 862 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:32,439 Speaker 3: that thing, like in some habitat, it'd be at least 863 00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:34,919 Speaker 3: as much, but you wouldn't have it'd be like, yeah, 864 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 3: you put it there, it's there forever. 865 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. 866 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,439 Speaker 2: To answer one of the questions that we had about 867 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 2: books that outdoorsmen should read, this is something we've written 868 00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:45,839 Speaker 2: a lot about on the meat eater dot com.

I just killed a bowl elk a couple 913 00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:05,400 Speaker 9: of days ago, and I got him hanging in my 914 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 9: garage along with my mule deer buck that shot a 915 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:11,560 Speaker 9: couple of days before.

Ben, 1016 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:20,120 Speaker 2: welcome to the show. 1017 00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:21,720 Speaker 7: Thanks. 1018 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 2: Let's go on, hey, Ben, start from the very beginning 1019 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:27,440 Speaker 2: of that hunt on opening morning. 1020 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:32,440 Speaker 7: Oh yeah, what's utah over the counter. It's a very 1021 00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:37,560 Speaker 7: low success hunt, low density of elk on the unit, 1022 00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:39,759 Speaker 7: and we had found some bulls kind of in a 1023 00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:43,080 Speaker 7: deserty area that were by themselves, and we were super 1024 00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 7: hopeful that we'd have these bulls to ourselves, but it 1025 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,360 Speaker 7: didn't actually turn out that way. We went out to 1026 00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:52,880 Speaker 7: the area to hunt these elk on opening morning and 1027 00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:55,520 Speaker 7: we found the elk where they had been for basically 1028 00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:58,880 Speaker 7: the whole summer. We were watching them from across the canyon, 1029 00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:01,640 Speaker 7: and we sent one body in kind of on a 1030 00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:04,520 Speaker 7: stalk to get in the path of the bulls so 1031 00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:06,520 Speaker 7: that he'd be able to get an opportunity at him. 1032 00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:09,520 Speaker 7: And as we're watching these bulls come up onto this 1033 00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:13,399 Speaker 7: little plateau in the glass, I noticed another hunter there. 1034 00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:16,440 Speaker 7: And we'd never see anybody out there during scouting, and 1035 00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:18,640 Speaker 7: it's not an area where very many people hunt, so 1036 00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:21,200 Speaker 7: I figured we'd maybe have it to ourselves. Anyway, we 1037 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:24,359 Speaker 7: kind of sat back and watched it unfold. I threw 1038 00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:27,360 Speaker 7: the phone on the phone on the adapter on the 1039 00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:30,640 Speaker 7: all and we started watching to see what would go down. Anyway, 1040 00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:33,560 Speaker 7: the elk away it was headed up, walked right to 1041 00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:38,200 Speaker 7: this other hunter just randomly happened to be on that path, 1042 00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:41,359 Speaker 7: and we were able to kind of get it on video. 1043 00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:43,759 Speaker 7: We saw him crouch down behind a rock and saw 1044 00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:45,920 Speaker 7: the elk walk in front of him at about sixty 1045 00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,840 Speaker 7: or seventy yards, and as the bull got kind of 1046 00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:51,960 Speaker 7: pasted him, it started to turn broadside. Then it ended 1047 00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 7: up kind of facing away, and that's the moment he shot. 1048 00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 7: I think he thought it was going to go fully broadside, 1049 00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:59,040 Speaker 7: and he ended up hitting the bowl through kind of 1050 00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:02,040 Speaker 7: the arm meet low the shoulder above the knee, and 1051 00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:04,480 Speaker 7: the arrow passed through that shoulder and was hanging out 1052 00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 7: by the fletchings. And so obviously we were kind of bombed, 1053 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:09,880 Speaker 7: you know, thinking, here's our bull that we're out here 1054 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:13,200 Speaker 7: to try to try to hunt today, and he's he's 1055 00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:14,520 Speaker 7: now been shot by this other hunter. 1056 00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:18,520 Speaker 2: So we watched how far were you watching this unfold from? 1057 00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:21,920 Speaker 7: Ben? We were probably fifteen hundred yards away on a 1058 00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 7: glassy knob, and so we had the spotters and everything 1059 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:26,120 Speaker 7: set up, and we were just kind of kicked back 1060 00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:27,880 Speaker 7: and we knew our buddy was somewhere in that area, 1061 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:31,919 Speaker 7: but I didn't know exactly where. So we watched the bowl. 1062 00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:34,799 Speaker 7: It runs out maybe one hundred yards, stands around, puts 1063 00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:37,279 Speaker 7: some weight on his leg, starts walking normally, and it 1064 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:40,719 Speaker 7: ends up traveling about another thousand or fifteen hundred yards 1065 00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:43,840 Speaker 7: and dropping into a small canyon. So we kind of 1066 00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:46,279 Speaker 7: sat back and thought, well, we'll just watch this play out, 1067 00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:49,840 Speaker 7: see what happens. We watched the other hunter, and for 1068 00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:52,399 Speaker 7: about four hours, he never moved to recover the bowl 1069 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:54,400 Speaker 7: at all and never went anywhere over in that direction, 1070 00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:57,040 Speaker 7: and so we sent a friend over just to check 1071 00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:58,640 Speaker 7: with him and see what. 1072 00:52:58,760 --> 00:52:59,400 Speaker 2: His plan was. 1073 00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:01,640 Speaker 7: There was another bowl with it as well, and they 1074 00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:03,480 Speaker 7: both kind of went down a little canyon together, and 1075 00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:05,880 Speaker 7: you know, these are the only two elk in this hilario, 1076 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:07,759 Speaker 7: so we're thinking, like, we still kind of like to 1077 00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:09,759 Speaker 7: hunt these elk. So we sent a friend to talk 1078 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:11,680 Speaker 7: to the first hunter, and he said he had some 1079 00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:13,239 Speaker 7: people coming out to help him and they were going 1080 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:15,279 Speaker 7: to go recover this bowl. And we let him know 1081 00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:16,759 Speaker 7: that it was hitting the leg and he thought that 1082 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:18,840 Speaker 7: he had hit it in the body cavity. So there 1083 00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:20,600 Speaker 7: was kind of a little moment there where we didn't, 1084 00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:25,160 Speaker 7: you know, a misunderstanding whatever. So during all this, the 1085 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:27,320 Speaker 7: two bowls kind of split up. The one bowl the 1086 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:29,839 Speaker 7: other bowl was this one horn five point I had 1087 00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:33,399 Speaker 7: one antler, and we were totally interested in hunting that elk. 1088 00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:35,040 Speaker 7: So we told the other hunter, we're going to go 1089 00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:36,480 Speaker 7: in and try to kill the one horn bowl, and 1090 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:40,040 Speaker 7: I guess we'll see what happens. So where the video 1091 00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:42,360 Speaker 7: kind of kicks in is me, I'm moving in to 1092 00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:45,359 Speaker 7: shoot this one horn five point and as I walk 1093 00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:47,480 Speaker 7: up to the edge of the cliff there, I realized 1094 00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:49,320 Speaker 7: the six point that this other hunter is hit is 1095 00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:51,719 Speaker 7: now right below me. He's moved back around underneath the 1096 00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:54,880 Speaker 7: ledge and he's just posted up right there. By the 1097 00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:56,160 Speaker 7: time I knew he was there, I mean, he was 1098 00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:59,279 Speaker 7: already twenty yards or less away from me. So I 1099 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:01,759 Speaker 7: just went, well, here's a bowl he's obviousally hit. I'm 1100 00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:03,040 Speaker 7: going to walk in there and I'm going to finish 1101 00:54:03,080 --> 00:54:05,239 Speaker 7: the deal and then we'll work it out. So you 1102 00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:07,480 Speaker 7: see me walk into the edge there. The wind is 1103 00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:11,120 Speaker 7: just absolutely ripping up out of that canyon. I draw 1104 00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:16,240 Speaker 7: a walk off shoot that bowl, and my fletching's actually 1105 00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:20,360 Speaker 7: kind of contacted the rock and hit the bowl in 1106 00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:23,279 Speaker 7: the shoulder, but it penetrated through the shoulder. The bowl 1107 00:54:23,360 --> 00:54:25,520 Speaker 7: spins and the arrow kind of backs out and then 1108 00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:27,720 Speaker 7: it runs down the canyon, and so I'm kind of hectic. 1109 00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:29,320 Speaker 7: I'm like oh, I need a follow up shot for 1110 00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:32,239 Speaker 7: sure on the celt and he runs down into the 1111 00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:35,840 Speaker 7: bottom of the canyon, so I start moving around parallel 1112 00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:37,799 Speaker 7: to get another shot at him. I actually took another 1113 00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:39,480 Speaker 7: shot there and just missed him because of the wind. 1114 00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:42,920 Speaker 7: It just blew the arrow clear off. And as I'm 1115 00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:44,880 Speaker 7: moving over towards him, I hear my buddy click on 1116 00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:47,120 Speaker 7: the radio, who had you know, earlier in the day 1117 00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:48,839 Speaker 7: gone on the stalk and he says, Hey, that bull 1118 00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:50,879 Speaker 7: just ran past me and I put a perfect arrow 1119 00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:53,840 Speaker 7: in it. So I'm like, all right, well, this is 1120 00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:56,919 Speaker 7: a you know, crazy situation. Now we got three people 1121 00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:59,120 Speaker 7: hit this bowl. But I'm super glad that, you know, 1122 00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:01,440 Speaker 7: the elk is a least down and this is only 1123 00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:03,120 Speaker 7: just a couple of minutes after I had hit it. 1124 00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:05,440 Speaker 7: So I walked to the edge and the bowl was 1125 00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:08,839 Speaker 7: kind of like expiring. I think my friend put one 1126 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:11,160 Speaker 7: more arrow in it and the whole ordeal was done. 1127 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 7: So that's kind of the whole story of how that 1128 00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:17,440 Speaker 7: bowl got killed. But insane to have three people. I mean, 1129 00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:19,320 Speaker 7: when I posted on Instagram, I was like, this is 1130 00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:21,719 Speaker 7: standard Utah over the counter stuff, because it seems like 1131 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:25,200 Speaker 7: this stuff happens on these over the counter units. But 1132 00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:27,239 Speaker 7: it did kind of turn into a little bit of 1133 00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:30,680 Speaker 7: a social media debacle after that. The first hunter he 1134 00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:34,040 Speaker 7: came down and I was I wasn't there for this part. 1135 00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:36,040 Speaker 7: I had gone back to get the truck, but had 1136 00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:38,200 Speaker 7: a bit of a confrontation with my friend who was 1137 00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:42,759 Speaker 7: the third shooter in this scenario, and he ended up 1138 00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 7: putting a post on Facebook and it went viral, kind 1139 00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:50,600 Speaker 7: of like I guess, defaming the third hunter, and it 1140 00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:52,320 Speaker 7: turned to this big, ugly ordeal. 1141 00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:57,120 Speaker 1: So luckily, you know what was Ben what was his 1142 00:55:57,360 --> 00:55:58,960 Speaker 1: problem with the whole thing? 1143 00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:02,239 Speaker 7: He thought that we should have well, obviously, I think 1144 00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:04,319 Speaker 7: his biggest problem was that I went in there when 1145 00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:06,400 Speaker 7: the ball was wounded, right, He thought, you know, I 1146 00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:08,960 Speaker 7: should have backed out totally, and in hindsight, you know, 1147 00:56:09,080 --> 00:56:10,800 Speaker 7: everything being what it is, I may have done that. 1148 00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 7: Like my intention was to shoot this other bowl, and 1149 00:56:13,680 --> 00:56:15,080 Speaker 7: then it just kind of worked out the way that 1150 00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:18,480 Speaker 7: it did. Yeah, I don't want it for being frustrated. 1151 00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:21,759 Speaker 7: But he was able to look to and see where 1152 00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:24,320 Speaker 7: he'd hit the elk, and when we you know, obviously 1153 00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:26,359 Speaker 7: were butchering the bowl, we saw where my arrow entered 1154 00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:27,960 Speaker 7: we saw my buddies and we saw where he had 1155 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:30,600 Speaker 7: hit it, and there was nothing close to fatal on 1156 00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:30,919 Speaker 7: the shot. 1157 00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:33,600 Speaker 2: Then tell us one more time, Ben, tell us one 1158 00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:36,400 Speaker 2: more time. Where all three of these arrows wound up 1159 00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:38,279 Speaker 2: in the thing from the first hunter, you and then 1160 00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:39,040 Speaker 2: the third hunter. 1161 00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:43,560 Speaker 7: So the first hunter hit it below the shoulder and 1162 00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:45,440 Speaker 7: above the knee, so kind of threw the arm meet 1163 00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:47,480 Speaker 7: from the back to the front, and the arrow was 1164 00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 7: hanging out the front. Here I hit the bowl in 1165 00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:52,839 Speaker 7: the shoulder blade and it got through and it hit 1166 00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:54,560 Speaker 7: for sure hit the close sidelong. I don't know if 1167 00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:56,800 Speaker 7: it got into the off side lung and then my 1168 00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:59,680 Speaker 7: buddy hit it just perfect square in the lungs. And 1169 00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:01,440 Speaker 7: so so when we all talked about that, when we 1170 00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:03,640 Speaker 7: looked at the bowl, we just decided that, you know, 1171 00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:06,759 Speaker 7: my buddy put the most lethal arrow on it. He 1172 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:08,319 Speaker 7: was the last shoot. I didn't feel like I had 1173 00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:10,000 Speaker 7: any claim on the bowl because I'm just the middle 1174 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:12,359 Speaker 7: guy in this giant cluster, you know what I mean. 1175 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:16,160 Speaker 7: So I decided and my buddy decided that he should 1176 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:18,960 Speaker 7: tag it. And him tagging it really, you know, upset 1177 00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:20,720 Speaker 7: this kid and ended up having a bit of a 1178 00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:25,280 Speaker 7: confrontation over it, so it all ended up kind of 1179 00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:27,680 Speaker 7: going bigger than we wanted it to. An officer from 1180 00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:30,000 Speaker 7: the fishing game came out and investigated it. After that, 1181 00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:32,680 Speaker 7: the post went viral on Facebook and he said there 1182 00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:35,960 Speaker 7: was no wrongdoing and everything got worked out in the end. 1183 00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:38,520 Speaker 7: What we ended up doing that I think really solved it. 1184 00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:40,080 Speaker 7: Has just got on the phone with everybody and with 1185 00:57:40,160 --> 00:57:43,160 Speaker 7: the other hunter and made some apologies and everybody kind 1186 00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:45,520 Speaker 7: of just walked away from it and let it be. 1187 00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:48,080 Speaker 7: But it was just like one of those scenarios you 1188 00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:50,400 Speaker 7: hoped to never run into, and you would never walk 1189 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:53,480 Speaker 7: into intentionally on public land, but kind of got out 1190 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:55,880 Speaker 7: of control. And that's kind of why, Like, I mean, 1191 00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:57,600 Speaker 7: this happened back in August, and I haven't shared a 1192 00:57:57,680 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 7: ton about it because it's such a wild scenario and 1193 00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:01,760 Speaker 7: it just kind of feels weird. But anyway, that's a story. 1194 00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:05,240 Speaker 2: Tell us about the messaging of the Facebook post and 1195 00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:08,600 Speaker 2: how Hunter number one had sort of portrayed the event. 1196 00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:12,680 Speaker 7: Yeah, so he basically said, I shot this bowl, I 1197 00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:14,960 Speaker 7: went to blood track it when I found it, there 1198 00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:17,440 Speaker 7: was somebody else gutting it. That was his story he 1199 00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:20,880 Speaker 7: put on Facebook. He said it was about an hour later, 1200 00:58:21,080 --> 00:58:22,960 Speaker 7: and so he made it seem like he'd made a 1201 00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:25,480 Speaker 7: fatal shot and he went to recover the bowl and 1202 00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:28,880 Speaker 7: somebody else was there, and so I had footage, you know, 1203 00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:31,720 Speaker 7: from the whole scenario, from him shooting, to me shooting, 1204 00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:33,880 Speaker 7: to us recovering it with time stamps, and so I 1205 00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:37,160 Speaker 7: had to eventually put together a little YouTube video that 1206 00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:40,200 Speaker 7: I could share for context for the people who were 1207 00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:42,040 Speaker 7: kind of wrapped up in the whole drama the situation. 1208 00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:44,640 Speaker 7: And as you guys know, when anything happens and it 1209 00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:46,360 Speaker 7: gets out there on the social media world, it can 1210 00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:47,840 Speaker 7: just spiral so fast. 1211 00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:52,760 Speaker 2: How much time had passed between like Hunter number one 1212 00:58:52,880 --> 00:58:55,640 Speaker 2: shooting the yelk and then you wind up going on 1213 00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:57,040 Speaker 2: a stock and coming upon. 1214 00:58:56,920 --> 00:59:01,040 Speaker 7: It five hours. So he shot it around seven am 1215 00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:02,160 Speaker 7: and I shot it right at noon. 1216 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:05,320 Speaker 2: And what was his plan to recover this bull or 1217 00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:06,800 Speaker 2: to get another arrow in it? 1218 00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:09,560 Speaker 7: He just said that he was waiting for his dad 1219 00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:11,280 Speaker 7: and some friends to come out and help him look 1220 00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:13,160 Speaker 7: for it, and then they were going to go after it. 1221 00:59:13,760 --> 00:59:16,160 Speaker 7: But I don't know exactly what he was wanting to do. 1222 00:59:16,320 --> 00:59:18,560 Speaker 7: Like from his angle, he couldn't see the bull, and 1223 00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:20,400 Speaker 7: we could see it up the canyon and we told him, 1224 00:59:20,400 --> 00:59:22,200 Speaker 7: we're like it. When our friend went over and talked 1225 00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:23,840 Speaker 7: to him, told him, it's on its feet, it's not 1226 00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:27,040 Speaker 7: hit bad, it's just acting like an elk. So it 1227 00:59:27,160 --> 00:59:29,440 Speaker 7: turned into this whole ordeal. 1228 00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:32,720 Speaker 2: Did he like, was he optimistic that he was going 1229 00:59:32,800 --> 00:59:34,600 Speaker 2: to recover this thing? Did he think he had put 1230 00:59:34,640 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 2: a lethal shot on it? 1231 00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:39,600 Speaker 7: I don't know, because he had video two of the 1232 00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:42,280 Speaker 7: bull after the shot, so I think he was kind 1233 00:59:42,320 --> 00:59:44,280 Speaker 7: of maybe in a spot where I think he told 1234 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:46,520 Speaker 7: his friends that he'd hit it fatally and hit it good, 1235 00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 7: but then maybe when he reviewed through the footage he 1236 00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:50,760 Speaker 7: knew that he didn't, so he kind of had to 1237 00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:53,400 Speaker 7: have a moment too, and he looked at the elk 1238 00:59:53,520 --> 00:59:55,760 Speaker 7: and with the officer and everything, they said, well, if 1239 00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:58,000 Speaker 7: you hit this bull bidally, there'd be a hole right 1240 00:59:58,040 --> 01:00:01,240 Speaker 7: here and there's not, so and they basically had to 1241 01:00:01,400 --> 01:00:03,320 Speaker 7: kind of come to an agreement on that. 1242 01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:05,440 Speaker 1: But it was dumb and it was. 1243 01:00:07,160 --> 01:00:09,560 Speaker 7: Kind of ugly. But it's just I mean, the video 1244 01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:11,320 Speaker 7: that I got out of it was kind of cool. 1245 01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:13,920 Speaker 7: But all in all hindsight, being what it is, I 1246 01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:15,600 Speaker 7: probably would have handed a little bit different and just 1247 01:00:15,680 --> 01:00:17,840 Speaker 7: maybe chilled out a little more and went damn again 1248 01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:18,280 Speaker 7: or something. 1249 01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:18,640 Speaker 1: I don't know. 1250 01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:22,880 Speaker 2: And what was the game warden's messaging towards you, because 1251 01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:25,520 Speaker 2: he had talked to you not before they went and 1252 01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:27,760 Speaker 2: looked at the carcass, right, he had talked to you afterwards. 1253 01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:30,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, he called me after they'd done an investigation and 1254 01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:32,720 Speaker 7: he's like, just wanted to let you know, like, I've 1255 01:00:32,760 --> 01:00:34,640 Speaker 7: been out there. We looked over the carcass and everything. 1256 01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 7: There was absolutely no wrongdoing that I can find there. 1257 01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:39,640 Speaker 7: There's nothing illegal. There's no legal issue here at all. 1258 01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:42,600 Speaker 7: So it's just kind of something that hunters have to 1259 01:00:42,680 --> 01:00:46,400 Speaker 7: work out in that scenario, as it's been figured out 1260 01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:47,800 Speaker 7: in the past. And Utah, I guess it's not a 1261 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:50,320 Speaker 7: law but more of a precedent. The person who puts 1262 01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:53,520 Speaker 7: a final arrow or finishes off the animal is the 1263 01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:57,080 Speaker 7: one who supposedly has the right to claim it. That's 1264 01:00:57,120 --> 01:00:58,320 Speaker 7: how it's been decided in the past. 1265 01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:03,320 Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, I feel like it all went the right way, 1266 01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:05,760 Speaker 1: especially hearing that you guys had had a little zoom 1267 01:01:05,840 --> 01:01:10,640 Speaker 1: meeting and everybody apologize and so everybody's happy or at 1268 01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:12,360 Speaker 1: least like stable now. 1269 01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:15,040 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, we're all on good terms, you know.

Bears have no access to fish but lots 1394 01:06:09,160 --> 01:06:11,640 Speaker 10: of berries.

But yeah, I would, 1406 01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:49,400 Speaker 1: I would there. I just think in the spring, you're 1407 01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:52,000 Speaker 1: gonna end up with a skinny, skinny er. I mean, 1408 01:06:52,040 --> 01:06:54,400 Speaker 1: you killed a spring bear once that was loaded with fat. 1409 01:06:54,520 --> 01:06:58,400 Speaker 1: But on average that's not normal, not normal. So I 1410 01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:01,600 Speaker 1: would definitely go for a fall hunt if you could cool. 1411 01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:04,200 Speaker 10: I don't know how detailed do you guys want to get, 1412 01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:06,760 Speaker 10: But Jeff's asking for a show in tel segment of 1413 01:07:06,800 --> 01:07:09,160 Speaker 10: everyone's big game rifle setup.
