Speaker 7: Well?

51
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 6: So, unfortunately, I'm just a guy that moved from Louisiana

52
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:12,079
Speaker 6: at Arkansas and moved out off the grid to kind

53
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 6: of get away from everything, and.

54
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 1: Somehow that didn't work for you.

55
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, I would say, don't follow in my footsteps if

56
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 6: you want to stay in the woods and not being known,

57
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 6: because uh yeah, I just you know, living on the

58
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 6: grid and cooking on open fire and just living. And

59
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 6: my son decided to be fun to make a video

60
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,640
Speaker 6: and took my phone one night and downloaded TikTok on

61
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 6: it posted the video and the next day I had

62
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 6: twelve hundred followers. And here we are today, and you know,

63

69
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: What have you been doing?

70
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 4: Well?

71
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 7: Let's see, this week, I've been out on the job

72
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 7: site and taking you've actually been working. I've been working. Yeah,

73
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 7: I've been working on a heavy highway job doing nuclear

74
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 7: density testing. So wow, now there's your warning.

75
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 3: Okay, that's the week before that spare time, I was

76
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 3: at an.

77
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 7: Archeological dig looking for some of the first Americans that

78
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 7: paleo hunters that hunted the mastadons in mammoths. So we

79
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,919
Speaker 7: dug where we're doing that northern Kentucky, on the edge

80
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 7: of the last glaciation, the Wisconsin, so the glaciers came down. Basically,

81
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 7: you can draw a line along the Ohio River and

82
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:44,559
Speaker 7: that's where the glaciers ended, and so like sixty miles

83
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 7: as a crow flys from my house was the glaciers

84
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,919
Speaker 7: fifteen thousand years ago. So in northern Kentucky there was

85
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 7: a gathering of mammoths and mastadons, one of the few

86
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 7: places in the world that you find both species at

87
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 7: the same spot. We dug up a bottom tusk of

88
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 7: a mastodon, which I didn't know at that time that

89
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,919
Speaker 7: masadons had bottom tusk, and it was carved in the

90
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 7: shape of a penis.

91
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 5: Oh wow, so quickly, but I didn't know where we

92
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 5: were going there.

93
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: So very so so did they know that the site

94
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 1: was there.

95
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 7: Yes, this is a site where Daniel Boone crossed the

96
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 7: river with his son and like one hundred and fifty

97
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 7: militia men ten months after the Revolutionary War was over.

98
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 7: And he said it was a bad idea to cross.

99
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 7: There's a ford there on a licking river that you

100
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 7: could wait across right now. But they crossed that went

101
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 7: up into the hills and they were met by one

102
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 7: hundred British and about two hundred American Indians. Like I said,

103
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,679
Speaker 7: ten months after the Revolutionary War was over, the British

104
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 7: were still trying to take charge of the Northwest Territory.

105
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 7: They got ambush. Daniel Boone's son died in his arms there.

106
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 7: They made it back across the river licks little blue licks,

107
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 7: the battle little licks.

108
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 1: So the mastadon parts were at the blue lix.

109
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 7: Yeah, we're sitting there digging in a mud hole looking

110
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 7: at this river. Lick is a salt lick, salt lick. Yeah,

111
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 7: that's why the animals were there to begin with. That's

112
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 7: why the mastodons and the mammos were there because there

113
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 7: was water available. There was salt there that attracted them.

114
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 7: They was right on the edge of the Glacier's ideal

115
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,159
Speaker 7: climate and it's just all.

116
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 1: So you You were there with archaeologists from where.

117
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 7: From all over the country.

118
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: Wow.

119
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,039
Speaker 7: One guy was there and he was gathering cosmic dust

120
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 7: to see if he could prove that the the hit

121
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,839
Speaker 7: the Earth and might have changed the climate. Another guy

122
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 7: that was there is, I know that you've been doing

123

132
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 7: a science teacher. He says, I'm going to teach myself

133
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 7: to do that. And he's been all over the world

00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 7: west and he was working on his spot and the

137
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 7: water had dried up, and he was with some some

138
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 7: American Indians and they said, well, the COODI is a

139
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 7: spot where there's water. He said, Okay, where's the cowdy? Well,

00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 1: a high risk maneuver. It was either going to go

200
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,400

Speaker 1: Championship Squirrel cook Yeah, so thank you guys. Thanks guys.

286
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 5: We kind of shrunk it down.

287
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 1: Last year.

288
00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 5: We did a bunch, We did squirrel Call, and we

289
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 5: did uh. We had the under ten year old oystreet

290
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 5: and competition, which was just ridiculous.

291
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 4: Uh.

292
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 5: This year we limited it to the squirrel competition itself,

293
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 5: the cookoff cookof then we did the skinning competition, but

294
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,640
Speaker 5: we did it two different ways. This year we did

295
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 5: it the traditional way, like Kevin would just tug and jerking,

296
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 5: kind of like you would with your little nippers, you know,

297
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 5: your little scissors you like to use.

298
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 1: And then they don't want me in that competition with

299
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 1: my nippers. He's got those nippers. You know, you think

300
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 1: that's this They think this cheating.

301
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 5: And then the second way is we used We had

302
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 5: a guy come down from Illinois that it was three

303
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 5: D printing these new you know the leg hold headhole deal.

304
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 5: I think, yeah, yeah, Kevin's got it had been three

305
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 5: D printing though, So we set out to see if

306
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 5: that was any better, and Kevin explained when that would

307
00:15:58,840 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 5: work better.

308
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 7: Have had mobility problems, Uh, you would have like a

309
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 7: string with a carab beaner and you would mount it

310
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 7: up so if you couldn't bend, yeah, it would hang

311
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 7: so you can put their feet through there, their head

312
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 7: through there. So if you were like where you couldn't

313
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 7: get over, had trouble being mobile, you could skin from

314
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 7: standing up. So that's where that comes in handy.

315
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: Now, But they're putting the head of the squirrel in there, right,

316
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 1: But I mean, nobody do people skin from the head down.

317
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: I've only only know how to skin from.

318
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 7: Think it's when they're gutting. It just gives you another option.

319
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 7: Of course that the squirrel may pull in two, so

320
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 7: if you you know, if he pulls in two, then

321
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 7: it gives a better option to skin in the thing. Yeah,

322
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 7: they sent me one, and they asked me if I

323
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 7: used U as I keep my bourbon bottle on it. Okay,

324
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 7: So so I tell him when I get about seventy five,

325
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 7: I'll probably take take this, but as long as I

326
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 7: can bend over. Because Clifton, he was he won the

327
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 7: first heat and then he started using this thing, and

328
00:16:58,880 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 7: then he kind of got lost.

329
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 1: Did it if he body beat him with that when

330
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 1: they were using those.

331
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 7: Yeah, if he would have just did his rigor skin in,

332
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 7: he would have won. Because if you're not used to it,

333
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 7: you know, it's like if you're not used to using

334
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 7: nippers or scissors, then it's extra motion that you don't

335
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,919
Speaker 7: know what you're Yeah, you're going through. But it's a

336
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,399
Speaker 7: good it's a good thing. Like I said, I'll use

337
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 7: it one of these days when I get older.

338
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,439
Speaker 1: So how did how did cliff? Well did we answer

339
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:24,920
Speaker 1: my question?

340
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 4: Uh?

341
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, cleaning hot squirrel cleaning And then the Cookoff.

342
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 5: And the cookoff man, you just wait till Brent Reeves

343
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:34,159
Speaker 5: tells you what he ate.

344
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I want to hear that in detail, like

345
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 1: what was actually cooked. But so if if you come

346
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 1: to the Squirrel Cookoff every we're at the the nature Center.

347
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,200
Speaker 1: What's the name. What's the name of the center? Yeah? Yeah,

348
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 1: here in Springdale, Arkansas for Arkansas Game and Fish Nature Center.

349
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:55,399
Speaker 1: That's correct, and really beautiful facility.

350
00:17:55,080 --> 00:18:01,679
Speaker 4: Ozark Holland's Nature Center and John Hunt. Yeah, those are

351
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 4: those are Hollands Arkansas Game and Fish Commission.

352
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 3: It's a mouthful Folks's Nature.

353
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,120
Speaker 4: Center and a partridge in a pear tree.

354
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 5: There was one other thing that we tried to accomplish

355
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 5: this this event is uh. I want to stress this

356
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:28,159
Speaker 5: that there was a bunch of young adults kids to

357
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 5: young adults who competed this year. And one of the

358
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 5: reasons why I thought that was important is these kids

359
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 5: had been branded with the name in front of them

360
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 5: of Foster. And one of my goals for this event

361
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 5: was to eliminate the name Foster on these kids and

362
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 5: just call them what they are as kids. And so

363
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 5: most folks didn't know it today because we didn't shine

364
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,159
Speaker 5: any light on it, because that wasn't the goal. The

365
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 5: goal was was to put these kids in there just

366
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 5: like any other kids and compete. So we had three

367
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 5: teams located over here. I think they did a really

368
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 5: good job and we shined a light on a lot

369
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 5: of child organizations that need to have lights shined on

370
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 5: them today. And so I didn't do a lot of

371
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 5: bragging about that. I wanted it just to be come

372
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,400
Speaker 5: out and see that deal, and I think we accomplished

373
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 5: a big, big goal.

374
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,640
Speaker 4: Well that's good, that's good stuff good.

375
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: So when people come here, I think the most unique

376
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 1: thing probably about this event is that you get to

377
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,160
Speaker 1: eat squirrel. Like, so all the cooks are out here

378
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 1: cooking and you can see the cooks cooking. When you

379
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 1: come here, you have to cook the squirrel here. It's

380
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 1: got to be verified that it's squirrel. So people are cooking,

381
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 1: you can see them cook, and then people get to eat.

382
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,960
Speaker 1: So almost probably most people standing around here have the

383
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 1: opportunity to eat squirrel that if they wanted to.

384
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,639
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've heard of all kinds of other oddities that

385
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:11,679
Speaker 5: were out there. Crow, there was like crow sausage. Someone

386
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,439
Speaker 5: made crow sausage. Row sausage. There was a bunch of goose.

387
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 3: Uh.

388
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:17,879
Speaker 5: There was all kinds of things.

389
00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:24,119
Speaker 1: Serve today, Brent, tell me as many possible, as many

390
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,639
Speaker 1: titles of dishes that you can remember what was cooked,

391
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 1: because that's what people will always want to know. Sesame

392
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 1: And if y'all, if anyone out there remembers, you can

393
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: say too.

394
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 4: I'll have to I'll have to dumb it down and

428
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:24,440
Speaker 4: Somebody was working their tail off, and there the fella

429
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 4: sitting beside me. I can't here if it was Michael,

430
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 4: who it was, but he said, oh, my first shot

431
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 4: and he sped, he sped a shot out. It was

432
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 4: about the size of a seed tick that had been

433
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 4: on a three day suck. He's probably like a number

434
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 4: eight left shot. But I didn't get any no bone.

435
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:45,520

437
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,480
Speaker 4: I've been to this thing for the last three or

438
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:58,360
Speaker 4: four years. Three years, three years, I've been a judge twice.

439
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,920
Speaker 4: I have yet to get squirreled in dumplings or fried squirrel.

440
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 1: I think that's what everybody would think.

441
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 4: That phils predictable. That's what I've been waiting to get it,

442
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 4: and I ain't seen it yet.

443
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: I heard somebody tell me that they cook kind of

444
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 1: a traditional squirrel meal of like corn bread and beans

445
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:17,640
Speaker 1: and kind of like a country.

446
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 4: Best baked beans. I ever put in my jaws was

447
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,640
Speaker 4: in that room in there, and it was they were smoked.

448
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 4: I mean it was. The smoke was so stout in

449
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,919
Speaker 4: it so good. Now that's not a detractor. It was

450
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 4: so good. I felt like I needed to ask tra

451
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 4: to put my spoon in. It was good.

452
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 5: We had the new director of Arkansas Game and Fish

453
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:39,679
Speaker 5: at the judging table this year.

454
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 1: Oh he was a judge.

Speaker 5: He was a judge. He got to experience that the

456
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,919
Speaker 5: dish that won, we haven't announced it out there yet,

459
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 5: was like a runaway huge amount. Now you can't you

Speaker 1: It's just let's let's just.

465
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 3: Say it's probably not the squirrel feet.

466
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,159
Speaker 4: If you put if you put squirrel feet in there,

467
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 4: you wouldn't really planning women.

468
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 5: I don't know, man, man that thing was it?

469
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,160
Speaker 3: Was it a forethought or an afterthought?

00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 5: Such a well designed entree and side dish, I mean

00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: Well, hey, listen, I got to give that team credit

474
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 1: because in me Eater Trivia, for instance, I have said

475
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:56,119
Speaker 1: before that sometimes a good answer is better than a

476
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 1: right answer. Are you with me? I mean, because it's like,

477
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 1: what are we here for?

478
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:05,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, they were celebrated. They were celebrating the squirrel.

479
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:07,479
Speaker 1: I mean, so I kind of I kind of had

480
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,520
Speaker 1: tip to them. And the other thing that comes to

481
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 1: my mind is that I'm in the midst of a

482
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 1: project where I'm doing a bunch of research about black

483
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 1: bears and about the way Indigenous people use black bears,

484
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 1: and a lot of them they'd rather eat a paul

485
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:27,119
Speaker 1: than anything on that animal. I mean, like that, ain't

486
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 1: that archaeological record, Like they're.

487
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,640
Speaker 5: Still they're still doing that over in Asia illegally bear

488
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 5: paul bear paul stuff.

489
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 1: So maybe it's maybe it's something new with the squirrels.

490
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 1: I think you could flash frme and just.

491
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:48,679
Speaker 4: Squirrel fe No, not feet, Okay, okay.

492
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 1: Do you cook much wild game? Most of what I

493
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:54,640
Speaker 1: see you cooking is like just like good country food. Yeah, no,

494
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:56,120
Speaker 1: average and pork and.

495
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,120
Speaker 6: I don't know, I cook a lot of wild game, yeah,

496
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 6: I mean we'd usually every year we stock up on deer, bear, squirrel, rabbits, ducks,

497
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 6: anything we can get get our hands on. Yeah, and

498
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 6: a lot of the dishes we you know, back in

499
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 6: the day, I guess you would say, is which is

500
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 6: the way I try to cook kind of the way

501
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 6: you know my family did. They cooked a lot of

502
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 6: the dishes the same way, No matter what meat they

503
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 6: were using, you know a lot of onions, bell peppers,

504
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 6: just making a gravy and and you know, smothering the

505
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,399
Speaker 6: meat for four hours until it fell apart.

506
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 4: Yeah.

507
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 1: Hard to beat that.

508
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 6: It is, especially with squirrel.

509
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, hard to beat that. So did you

510
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 1: have any squirrel today? You didn't? Did you say you didn't? Yeah,

Speaker 1: it didn't.

512
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 6: We did a ravioli which I didn't hear him talk

513
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 6: about it. It must not have been that good cage.

514
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:56,360
Speaker 1: And I'll talk about the ravioli.

515
00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,719
Speaker 5: My son can walk walking into the judging room and

516
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 5: several of the judges said, my son's name is Clemens.

535
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 4: whatever flavor you cook it in. You cook it in

00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 4: beef broth, that's gonna jump onto that or chicken, either

537
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 4: either way you want to go with it. It was

538
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 4: just good that it wasn't when you took a bite

539
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,119
Speaker 4: of it, it wasn't. You didn't say, well, that's Tony

540

Speaker 4: Sastre's or that's salt and pepper. It was just a

541
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 4: good mix of baked meat.

542
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,159
Speaker 5: Now, he did have his old ca snife out on

543
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 5: the table, of course I did.

544
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,439
Speaker 4: I went in there and I did notice it was

545
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 4: a little greasy. Yeah, well there was a couple of

546
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 4: legs that come in. You know, I don't people think

547
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 4: I'm crazy. Ever since when you did the cooking show

548
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 4: about eating with my hands. I don't like to do it,

549
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 4: and I'm his country's corn bread. I know, but I

550
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 4: don't like getting my hands on man. So I was

551
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 4: cutting the cutting the meat off the bone or some

552
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 4: of it.

553
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 1: Oh, you were cutting meat off this dude.

554
00:28:56,760 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 5: He had us laughing three, three, three or four times

555
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 5: in there. I don't even know what the heck it was.

556
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 4: Well, who knows, I don't either.

557
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 5: We were The unique thing about our judging, compared to

558
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:13,720
Speaker 5: most judging is first and foremost, everybody is turning in

559
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 5: something different. So if you're used to a chili cook off,

560
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 5: where you know you're coming in and taste chili, it's

561
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 5: really easy to decipher which chili is better than the other,

562
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 5: or brisket or whatever. Right here, we're judging everybody on

563
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 5: their own merit. So I told all the judges early

564
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 5: that if we had somebody create a squirrel corn dog,

565
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 5: you needed to compare that corn dog to the best

566
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 5: corn dog you'd ever ate.

567
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:39,600
Speaker 1: Okay, that's fair.

568
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,200
Speaker 5: So you could go all in first box that you open,

569
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 5: and you could give it all top scores if you

570
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 5: compared it. I told Brent, I said, if there's meat

571
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 5: loaf shows up on this, you got to compare it

572
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 5: to Mama's meat loaf.

573
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 4: It's not plate. You're not comparing the challenge for the judge.

574
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,920
Speaker 4: You're not comparing plate to plate. It's not like this

575
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 4: cane tastes better than a last one. It's this one

576
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 4: tastes in comparison to the last thing that was similar

577
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 4: that you ate to it.

578
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,959
Speaker 5: How many judges were there, Joe, It's just like in

579
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 5: real life twelve twelve twelve.

580
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, my friend John Howard was alternate.

581
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, and hey, John Howard got everything that Brent liked

582
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 5: to chew on.

583
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 4: He'd passed that. John was standing behind me. If I

584
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 4: liked it, I'd just hand it back and then John

585
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 4: to work on. I look at him like this, or

586
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 4: I did eat all up.

587
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 3: I did take a bite of Brent's squirrel fried rice.

588
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 4: When I was in there. Squirrel that's good. Yeah, I didn't.

589
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 4: It was just like two years ago when I judged.

590
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 4: There was nothing that I ate that I wouldn't eat again.

591
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 1: You might cut this out, but one of.

592
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 4: The fun we ain't cutting nothing out.

593
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 1: One of them have to do with the mammoth tasks, No,

594
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 1: I promise you.

595
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 5: One of the funnies that Brent said was he'd had

596
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 5: like three different Asi dishes turned in on his side

597
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 5: of the table, and he said, who would have ever thought?

598
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 5: My whole life, I've been eating squirrel every time I

599
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 5: ate Chinese.

600
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 4: Good. I mean, I couldn't think of nothing better to eat.

601
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 4: It was good.

602
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 3: Did you have to disqualify anybody for suspect squirrel when

603
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 3: he did the inspection?

604
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 5: No, man, everybody turned in legit squirrel. You know, we

605
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 5: had a little rendezvous a while back with the Bear

606
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 5: grease crew who had went out. I don't know if

607
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 5: Bear was the one who killed those squirrels or if

608
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 5: it was you, Clay, but Clay made a donation.

609
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,760
Speaker 1: Heck of about forty squirrels, probably forty.

610
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 5: We had another probably sixty squirrels show up early this morning.

00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 5: you want in. And it's a good time. Every team

630
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 5: out here, whether they got first or last, they had

631
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:59,000
Speaker 5: a fun time today, I promise, and the mission of

632
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 5: who hunters and fishermen are as good people.

633
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: It's spread at this facility.

634
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 5: And a shout out to everybody who parked cars.

635
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 4: Man. Those guys are standing out in the heat early

636
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,959
Speaker 4: this morning, and it has been hot today, brutal.

637
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, Kevin got a squirrel question for you. Had a

638
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: guy today that I met here that he might be

639
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 1: standing right here. I don't know, but he I said

640
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 1: to Jeb squirrel. He said, yep, I ate some squirrel here.

641
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 1: He said it was really good. He said in Kentucky.

642
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,600
Speaker 1: Our squirrels taste like mud. And he said, we can't

643
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 1: eat them, and he said, down here, they taste good.

644
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: I just like, I didn't say much. I just kind

645
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:44,959
Speaker 1: of gave him the head nod. I need to wash.

646
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 1: Is he right?

647
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 7: Come back next year and we'll put him on the

648
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 7: spot and he can tell us the Kentucky squirrel from

649
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 7: the Arkansas squirrel.

650
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean blind blind taste tests.

651
00:33:58,160 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 7: Yeah, blind taste tests.

652
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 1: I mean you never now no, yeah, yeah, I don't know.

653
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 7: You know, I've had squirrel from Arkansas, Michigan, Illinois, Kentucky,

654
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 7: South Dakota.

655
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 1: It's all all the same.

656
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 7: It's all very similar. I mean, for someone to say

657
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,879
Speaker 7: that their palette could judge one squirrel from this state

658
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:21,359
Speaker 7: to the other, I think we need to have that

659
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 7: next year. You want to, Yeah, let's let's try to

660
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 7: do a little variety of squirrel and see who can

661
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 7: but say that.

662
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:29,440
Speaker 1: But I think you would be.

663
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:34,840
Speaker 5: It's unfair because if you did a spring summer or

664
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 5: a spring squirrel compared to a summer squirrel, it's just

665
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:42,399
Speaker 5: like bear. You know yourself. If you get those bear

666
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 5: that are down by the water, or the bear that's

667
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:49,279
Speaker 5: been eating the fish in Alaska, that sucker's gonna taste

668
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,920
Speaker 5: like fish. Man, I shot them iguanas in Puerto Rico

669
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 5: and they were far far from water, and they taste

670
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:58,879
Speaker 5: like fish. So it's all diet on the thing.

671
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,000
Speaker 1: I think it's got to be pre pretty extreme that that.

672
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,799
Speaker 1: In the bear world. The only the only time I've

673
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 1: seen a bear taste any different than any other bears

674
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 1: is salmon bears. Other than that, I find every bear

675
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,800
Speaker 1: I've ever tasted from anywhere in the country to pretty

676
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,399
Speaker 1: much taste it. Bringing fall tastes the same. I mean,

677
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 1: just a fall bear is going to have more fat,

678
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,919
Speaker 1: so but but I mean, does it taste the same,

679
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 1: And like a burger, I would say, you'd have a

680
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 1: real hard time telling the difference. Now a fall bear

681
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 1: is going to have more fat though, yep. But now

682
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 1: when you start getting to these like red squirrels and

683
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 1: pine squirrels and stuff out west, they say those tastes

684
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:43,360
Speaker 1: piny in habit Yeah, but like a cat squirrel, gray squirrel,

685
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 1: or fox squirrel anywhere in the eastern instiduous forest, I

686
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 1: bet they. I think they taste the same.

687
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:52,160
Speaker 6: Only the only thing I've noticed different eating squirrel in

688
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:54,719
Speaker 6: a lot of the states. Is at times in Louisiana,

689
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:57,960
Speaker 6: if they're eating a cypress tree and they get no

690
00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,920
Speaker 6: cypress bowls, that they do have a little bit of

691
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 6: a stronger taste. You can kind of tell, really, does

692
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,800
Speaker 6: it tastes like a cypress. It's kind of got that pain,

693
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:10,400
Speaker 6: you know, it's kind of got that same kind of

694
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:13,799
Speaker 6: sappy Okay, Yeah, and you can kind of you can

695
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 6: tell it in them.

696
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:18,759
Speaker 1: Now that that makes sense because they're eating those cypress.

697
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 6: Cypress bowls and they started eating them when they're still green,

698
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 6: and they'll eat through and pool like the seed out.

699
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:27,960
Speaker 6: And I mean, I promise you I can clean one

700
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 6: and just during cleaning it, I can tell you what

701
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 6: he's been eating over the cypress bowls or whether it

702
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 6: was you know, eating just acrons.

703
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:40,240
Speaker 1: M that makes sense. That makes sense. What about you, Clay,

704
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 1: would you do today?

705
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:41,880
Speaker 4: Well?

706
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:46,400
Speaker 1: Shore Man? Uh, I actually just got here about an

707
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,919
Speaker 1: hour and a half ago. I've been writing about whole

708
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,240
Speaker 1: Collier this morning. If I'm just telling you the truth,

709
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 1: good man to write about. Yeah, woke up at the

710
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 1: crack of way before the crack of dawn and been

711
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 1: doing some writing. But uh, that's that's what I had

712
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 1: to do this morning, but got it sort of got

713
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,040
Speaker 1: it done sort of. But we're, uh, we're we're getting

714
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 1: ready to bait. We're getting ready to bear hunt though

715
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,439
Speaker 1: bear Arsaw. Bear season opens this week and so we're

716
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,719
Speaker 1: we're we're fixing the gow's.

717
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 3: How's the action been?

718
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,360
Speaker 1: Not good? Not good.

719
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 4: Heat.

720
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 1: I don't think heat, it doesn't. I don't think it

721
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,360
Speaker 1: has anything to do with heat. I'd rather it be

722
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:31,240
Speaker 1: hot than cold during bear season, really, yeah. Why, worst

723
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:33,319
Speaker 1: thing that could happen would be a hurricane come through

724
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 1: and like a bunch of rain or a cold front

725
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 1: come through and knock the temperature down twenty thirty degrees.

726
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 1: You lose your bears and rarely get them back. It be,

727
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 1: it'd be best if it's just like consistent temperature right

728
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 1: through the start of the season. I'd rather it be

729
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 1: eighty five degrees than sixty on open day bear season

730
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 1: in Arkansas. I don't know about anywhere else.

731
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 3: I was out baiting yesterday and I did notice some

732
00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 3: white eppcakerings on the ground.

733
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 1: Yeah there's playing, Yeah, yeah. I wonder if there's any

734
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:16,640
Speaker 1: questions from the crowd or any about to anybody at this,

735
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 1: uh at this in these chairs. Anybody got any questions?

736
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:23,600
Speaker 6: Yeah, I do. I want to know if he's gonna

737
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:25,360
Speaker 6: eat the hot squirrel next year again?

738
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:34,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, back in, he's in all right, Oh, question the

739
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 1: question is about go ahead?

740
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, the question is about the dog.

741
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 1: Tell us about your dog, Kevin.

742
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:43,439
Speaker 7: Well, this is black Jail, and this is the first

743
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,120
Speaker 7: time she's been around more than three people at one time,

744
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:47,560
Speaker 7: so it's a little bit overwhelmed.

745
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:49,400
Speaker 4: Ye, nervous.

746
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 7: She is a half high q Beagle, a quarter carve In,

747
00:38:56,200 --> 00:39:02,440
Speaker 7: a quarter Faroll Miller field trial porter. Okay, and that

748
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 7: dog's all becomes the dog. The dog's name is Jeff,

749
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:08,400
Speaker 7: Black Jeff, Black Jeff. Usually I'm down here with Chef Jeff.

750
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:09,880
Speaker 7: This year I'm with black Jeff.

751
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 4: Okay.

752
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 7: And Black Jeff was a friend of mine that I

753
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:15,799
Speaker 7: met down at Real Foot Lake and he was a

754
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 7: pro baseball player, a swamp rabbit hunter, and so I

755
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 7: got black Jeff.

756
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,680
Speaker 1: So, okay, do you call her Black Jeff?

757
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 3: Like, if you're gonna just call her across the yard,

758
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 3: You're like, come here, Black Jeff.

759
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,479
Speaker 7: Black Jeff. Yeah, she's a she's ten months old.

760
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,719
Speaker 1: Like I said, multi syllable animal names are tough, but

761
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,759
Speaker 1: I got to get behind them. Yeah, I usually like

762
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 1: one syllable, but you know, I got a meal named

763
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:42,760
Speaker 1: slow Trap, which is Kevin.

764
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,360
Speaker 5: You said that tied into Clay. How to tie into Clay?

765
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 7: It tied into Clay because last year, at the end

766
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 7: of the podcast, thinking it was over with Clay and

767
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 7: I were talking about dogs and what we like to hunt.

768
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 7: He asked me, said, what what's your favorite kind of hunting?

769
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:57,640
Speaker 7: Of course, you know the favorite kind of hunt is

770
00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,080
Speaker 7: what I hunt, and I can do it at my

771
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,880
Speaker 7: age and where I and I said, well, swamp rabbit hunting.

772
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:04,920
Speaker 7: And then I got home and I started a new

773
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 7: job site, another job that I worked with a young

774
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,759
Speaker 7: boy and he was a COLDI hunter with dogs, and

775
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 7: we become friends. And I talked to him, says, have

776
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 7: you seen beagles use this? We never have, but I

777
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:19,839
Speaker 7: know people that have. And then my hunting experience over

778
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:23,200
Speaker 7: the last ten or twelve years with beagle dogs, we

779
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:26,040
Speaker 7: get into coyodies and some dogs like to run on

780
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:29,320
Speaker 7: better than the other. And I thought, and it's usually

781
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,319
Speaker 7: like a short race twelve hundred sixteen hundred yards, not

782
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:35,799
Speaker 7: the typical coyoti race. There and I'm thinking I can

783
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,520
Speaker 7: breed a dog up that I can run in Kentucky,

784
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:41,200
Speaker 7: that I can afford to feed, and I can have

785
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 7: a pack of predator dogs. So that's my attempt. It's

786
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:46,680
Speaker 7: probably gonna take me two years to have a predator dog.

787
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:51,279
Speaker 1: So what will your intentions for this dog to be,

788
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:54,440
Speaker 1: Because because Brince used decoy dogs, you're not wanting a

789
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,479
Speaker 1: decoy dog. You're wanting a dog that's going to run

790
00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:56,879
Speaker 1: a kyo.

791
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:58,839
Speaker 7: It's going to circle it back to me. It's gonna

792
00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 7: jump it up, take it out about one thousand yards

793
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 7: twelve hundred yards, not put a whole lot of pressure

794
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 7: on it, and not run it out of the country.

795
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:07,080
Speaker 7: It's going to let that coldy come out to his

796
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,239
Speaker 7: home range where he's been hunting, where we've jumped in

797
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:11,600
Speaker 7: and bring it back to us and to be up

798
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 7: to me, to be able to be.

799
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:15,840
Speaker 1: Like, that's why you want that beagle in there. So

800
00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:17,759
Speaker 1: they're not just running it out of the country, they're

801
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:19,479
Speaker 1: just kind of getting it up out of its bed,

802
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:20,640
Speaker 1: letting them know that.

803
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:23,759
Speaker 4: It's like they're like a rabbit, Kevin. They'll make a

804
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 4: loop and kind of go back to where they got jumped.

805
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 7: You know, it's taken me a few years to see that,

806
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,600
Speaker 7: but yeah, that's what I'm seeing is that we'll jump

807
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:34,240
Speaker 7: a few coldies and they'll come back into where we're hunting.

808
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 7: So you know, they're just like running a deer. You know,

809
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,399
Speaker 7: they're going to circle back, run like a fox. So yes,

810
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:44,719
Speaker 7: well and you know they chase rabbits, so yeah, so

811
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 7: you know, and then the same with a bob get

812
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,560
Speaker 7: they circle back. You know, sometimes you'll jump them in

813
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:53,840
Speaker 7: a cane brake or a blowdown a timber thicket, whatever,

814
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 7: and they're going to come back in there, and you

815
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:57,680
Speaker 7: just got to be like the top predator and be

816
00:41:57,760 --> 00:41:59,839
Speaker 7: ready for them, cause they're going to be looking for you.

817
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:00,520
Speaker 4: That's fun.

818
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 1: So so has this dog been exposed to all to

819
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:04,560
Speaker 1: any kyota?

820
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 7: She's run loose her career, entire life pretty much like

821
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:10,960
Speaker 7: I said, she just turned ten months old. She'll be

822
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 7: a year old in November. So I've got five more

823
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 7: of her siblings. My cowdi friend there j T. He's

824
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:21,840
Speaker 7: got the other two. So uh, we're going to start

825
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,799
Speaker 7: start after him, probably start them on some swamp raps

826
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 7: and stuff. They have run some rabbits, but I haven't

827
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,080
Speaker 7: exposed them to caldies or bobcats.

828
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Brent was decoy dog hunting. Have you seen

829
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: them do that?

830
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 7: I have seen them do that.

831
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:37,600
Speaker 4: It's very interesting. That's yeah, that's crazy. It's it's it's

832
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 4: the most amazing thing that I've ever seen as far

833
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 4: as how you think about a cody's nose and they're

834
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,560
Speaker 4: hearing and then they're cautious and if you know, if

835
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:48,960
Speaker 4: the odds are stacked against them, they're gone. They're they're

836
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 4: not messing around. They played a win. If the odds

837
00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:55,120
Speaker 4: are on their side, whatever they're after is usually done for.

838
00:42:55,960 --> 00:43:00,160
Speaker 4: And they get so crazy focused on that dog in

839
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 4: that time of year when when there's usually during the

840
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:04,880
Speaker 4: best time of year to use a decoy dog is

841
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:09,319
Speaker 4: when the coats have a litter in the ground in

842
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 4: a den somewhere, and how it is you use a

843
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:15,359
Speaker 4: predator call, call that that dog withinside of where you

844
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 4: are or the cout with inside of where you are,

845
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 4: and then the decoyed dog sees the cody takes off

846
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:23,759
Speaker 4: after it. Well, the coat is only going to sit

847
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,359
Speaker 4: there long enough for that decoy dog to get close enough,

848
00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 4: and then he's going to turn around and start trotting. Awful.

849
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 4: When that happens, the dog will stop and turn around

850
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 4: and come back, and the cout goes, ah, you're scared

851
00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:36,919
Speaker 4: of me, And he'll follow them right back to where

852
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:39,799
Speaker 4: you are. And I've had him come close to me

853
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,839
Speaker 4: and Josh and they just they are so focused on

854
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 4: that dog because of their territorial instincts that they don't

855
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,919
Speaker 4: pay an attention to you. And it's usually lights out

856
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:49,920
Speaker 4: for the old Cody.

857
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:51,799
Speaker 1: Amazing, huh.

858
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,000
Speaker 4: It's crazy to see. And it's in the daylight. I mean,

859
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:55,080
Speaker 4: you're not doing it at night.

860
00:43:56,040 --> 00:44:00,400
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. Well have you hided with dogs squirreled dogs?

861
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, so I do. I've got a cattle hula curve

862
00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 6: all real, uh heep. Me and him go out squirrel

863
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 6: hunting and we do a lot of coons.

864
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:09,760
Speaker 4: Uh.

865
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 6: And I don't know. He doesn't like anything that's smaller

866
00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:15,879
Speaker 6: than him that walks. He loves getting out and if

867
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 6: I don't kill it in time, he's gonna try to

868
00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:18,120
Speaker 6: get it.

869
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:19,560
Speaker 4: He likes the scrap.

870
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:22,880
Speaker 6: He does like to scrap. He's usually bring me a

871
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:25,800
Speaker 6: present about once a week on the driveway.

872
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 1: Katahua. Does anybody else have it? A question? That they

873
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:35,240
Speaker 1: want to ask anybody, this young man, this guy right here. Yeah,

874
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:41,400
Speaker 1: first animal to hunt? Good question, good question. We can go,

875
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 1: we go around, we go around the circle. I think

876
00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:48,840
Speaker 1: the first I probably killed the squirrel first, But the

877
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,960
Speaker 1: first animal I really remember was hunting the deer. What

878
00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 1: about you, Kevin Sparra sparrow.

879
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:57,960
Speaker 3: Yea uh, squirrel?

880
00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:02,880
Speaker 4: Squirrel, squirrel? Do duck squirrel hunt with my daddy.

881
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:05,959
Speaker 5: I may not be the world's best small game hunter

882
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:08,920
Speaker 5: like Kevin, but mine was a little yellow bird that big.

883
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:13,080
Speaker 5: And when I hit that thing and and it fell down,

884
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:15,440
Speaker 5: I went in and got got my mama's gravy spoon

885
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 5: and does a burial site for that bird.

886
00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:23,920
Speaker 1: I buried it, packed it in real tight, cried a little.

887
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:26,120
Speaker 5: Bit, did a small prayer, and I went out and

888
00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:28,360
Speaker 5: found its other one, you know, and.

889
00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:30,920
Speaker 1: Then went and got the other. The best part of

890
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 1: this story is that was twenty fourteen.

891
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, man, I remember crying over that first.

892
00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:43,280
Speaker 1: Is that a good Is that? Is that a good answer?

893
00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 1: All right? Good, good, good good.

894
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 7: I've got a question from the audience. Is the young

895
00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:52,759
Speaker 7: man that's from Arizona here that's got the a bird

896
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,680
Speaker 7: squirrel on the back of his behind. You right there,

897
00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:59,560
Speaker 7: come on over this way. He got pull in here

898
00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:01,720
Speaker 7: to check turned around.

899
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:06,480
Speaker 1: Oh, that's like a motorcycle club.

900
00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 7: So when I first came here, he came up to

901
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:13,239
Speaker 7: me and started talking to me and said he's from

902
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:15,279
Speaker 7: Arizona and all that, and we had a good little

903
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:18,040
Speaker 7: conversation and he walked off, and some more people come

904
00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:20,759
Speaker 7: up and started talking to me. And I'm thinking, that's

905
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:22,239
Speaker 7: an Abert squirrel on the back of.

906
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:27,480
Speaker 1: His jacket, you like specie. That is that a desert squirrel?

907
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:27,759
Speaker 4: Oh?

908
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:29,120
Speaker 1: Really, so it's not a gray square.

909
00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:30,960
Speaker 7: It's not a grey squirrel. This is an Abert squirrel.

910
00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:33,480
Speaker 1: Is a tail that short? Or did somebody pull the

911
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:43,759
Speaker 1: tail off? Okay, pulled the pulled the tail off. He

912
00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:44,600
Speaker 1: pulled the tail off.

913
00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:44,799
Speaker 4: You know.

914
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:47,319
Speaker 5: One of the finest squirrel hunters of all time come

915
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:52,040
Speaker 5: out of Arizona, John O'Dell. And John O'Dell was a

916
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:55,359
Speaker 5: biologist out of the state. He's recently retired, but he

917
00:46:55,480 --> 00:47:00,319
Speaker 5: killed the grand Slam of the squirrel, which was go

918
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:02,399
Speaker 5: ahead last.

919
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 7: I think he was Kevin.

920
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:05,919
Speaker 5: You remember this. He was on the cover of Field

921
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:09,280
Speaker 5: and Stream or something. He went all the way around

922
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:13,840
Speaker 5: the country and he shot every species a squirrel, and

923
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:17,160
Speaker 5: he got a lot of trash talk because he did

924
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:18,799
Speaker 5: it with an eight seventy shotgun.

925
00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:20,640
Speaker 4: My man.

926
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,919
Speaker 5: And the reason he was getting so much trash talking

927
00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:26,840
Speaker 5: and he was able to defend it was in a

928
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:29,439
Speaker 5: lot of places, the only gun that he could use

929
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:33,880
Speaker 5: a shotgun, and so he just used the same gun.

930
00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:36,480
Speaker 5: And the image you could find it on the internet.

931
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:42,000
Speaker 5: He has them all mounted like on one branch. Oh wow, man,

932
00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:46,000
Speaker 5: it's every species a squirrel in North America's pretty cool.

933
00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:48,040
Speaker 6: How many species of squirrels exactly?

934
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:50,280
Speaker 1: Don't get me going cajuing.

935
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 4: You could just know that part of the twenty two

936
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:54,719
Speaker 4: you could have said thirty seven.

937
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:57,680
Speaker 6: I mean, and then I'm just curious because I mean,

938
00:47:57,760 --> 00:47:58,320
Speaker 6: I don't.

939
00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 7: Know, but like a google Josh five or six. No,

940
00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:06,319
Speaker 7: there's probably a lot, probably twelve to eighteen twelve to eighteen.

941
00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:07,000
Speaker 1: Twelve to eighteen.

942
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:10,720
Speaker 5: There's a little squirrel up in Missouri. It's a ground

943
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:14,560
Speaker 5: squirrel in Missouri that I've been wanting to go up

944
00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:16,000
Speaker 5: and hunt a chip monk.

945
00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:18,360
Speaker 1: No, it's a great it's an actual ground squirrel.

946
00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:24,759
Speaker 3: But this says, this is AI overview that there are

947
00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:29,960
Speaker 3: over sixty five squirrel species in North America. Oh, I

948
00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:33,200
Speaker 3: see tree squirrels, ground squirrels, flying squirrels.

949
00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:35,719
Speaker 1: I doubt that. I think AI is pulling one on us.

950
00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:39,400
Speaker 1: It wouldn't have been too surprised that half of that

951
00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:42,279
Speaker 1: sixty five sounds high. But I mean, yeah, you can

952
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:43,400
Speaker 1: start thinking about.

953
00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:45,160
Speaker 4: America's pretty big.

954
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:48,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, now that you think about it, I mean flying

955
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:51,120
Speaker 6: squirrel age. I mean there's a lot that you're not they.

956
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:54,879
Speaker 1: Might be counting ground squirrels.

957
00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,720
Speaker 6: Like, there's a lot you're not thinking. We're I'm thinking

958
00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:58,959
Speaker 6: more of what we hunt eat. Yeah, but yeah, there's

959
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:02,000
Speaker 6: a lot more species, I think. Yeah, you know, I

960
00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:03,359
Speaker 6: don't know there's that many though.

961
00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:07,439
Speaker 7: Isn't there some subspecies out there? Like I think there's

962
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:12,680
Speaker 7: a cherokey fox squirrel down on the Mexico Arizona border.

963
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:17,160
Speaker 7: Then you have the squirrel, the Caba squirrel that's only

964
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 7: like in seventy five square miles of the earth that

965
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:23,799
Speaker 7: you can hunt, hopefully it made it through this last

966
00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:26,879
Speaker 7: forest fire that came through there. And then you've got

967
00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:30,320
Speaker 7: the I think the Carolina fox squirrel a little bit different.

968
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:34,319
Speaker 7: And then you've got you know, some subspecies out there,

969
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:38,200
Speaker 7: regional squirrels. So there's there's more than you think about it.

970
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:41,520
Speaker 7: You know, we we just think about fox squirrel, gray squirrel,

971
00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,879
Speaker 7: you know, the a birds. And then like I said,

972
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:47,400
Speaker 7: you've got those subspecies and different type of fox squirrels

973
00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:49,560
Speaker 7: out there. And then you've got melanistic squirrels, which are

974
00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:54,160
Speaker 7: a gray squirrel that's black basically there, and you've got

975
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:56,200
Speaker 7: some black fox squirrels out there. And then there, you know,

976
00:49:56,239 --> 00:49:59,640
Speaker 7: you've got your albino squirrels, which really not a subspecies,

977
00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:05,000
Speaker 7: they're just their own little in different locations there, some

978
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:07,520
Speaker 7: some in Tennessee, some in Illinois, some in Kentucky.

979
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:09,919
Speaker 1: So can I ask a question of the crowd?

980
00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:13,080
Speaker 6: For sure? I seen it.

981
00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:15,200
Speaker 1: I'll ask a question of the crowd. Should we just

982
00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:17,840
Speaker 1: cut this squirrel cook off? Or do we need to

983
00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:18,920
Speaker 1: do one again next year?

984
00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:26,240
Speaker 4: Yeah? Okay, yeah, there it is.

985
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:32,400
Speaker 1: Doing it again. Got to I think it's it was

986
00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:36,360
Speaker 1: brought up about a piece of shot being being spit

987
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:39,040
Speaker 1: out as as big as the seedtick that had been

988
00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:43,920
Speaker 1: sucking for three days. Yep, it was interesting analogy accurate

989
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,480
Speaker 1: brings up the question, and we'll go around the we'll

990
00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:49,960
Speaker 1: go around the group here shotgun or twenty two you

991
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:52,720
Speaker 1: only get one for the rest of your life? Why

992
00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:57,520
Speaker 1: and why for therel squirrel or squirrel shotgun or twenty

993
00:50:57,520 --> 00:51:00,640
Speaker 1: two one for the rest of your life? You're and

994
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:04,000
Speaker 1: here's the big question. This is the only gun you

995
00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:08,320
Speaker 1: have in the wilderness. You will die like life and death,

996
00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:11,480
Speaker 1: life and death situation one gun. I'm building this analogy

997
00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:15,000
Speaker 1: as we go. What are you carrying? Twenty two or

998
00:51:15,040 --> 00:51:17,759
Speaker 1: a shot gun? Kevin? We're starting with you.

999
00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:21,320
Speaker 7: Twenty two magnum. Take anything on the North America content. Okay,

1000
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:26,880
Speaker 7: but I'm a rifleman. You know you can. You're out there,

1001
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:29,280
Speaker 7: if you're living off the land, you can kill anything.

1002
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,640
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, but you can only kill squirrels only. Twenty

1003
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:35,880
Speaker 1: two macnim same twenty two mag twenty two magnam. Now

1004
00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:38,000
Speaker 1: do you honte with the twenty two mag in Kentucky

1005
00:51:38,080 --> 00:51:40,320
Speaker 1: just like when you're out or regular twenty two back.

1006
00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:43,000
Speaker 7: When I was a killer? Twenty two magnum. Okay, I'm

1007
00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:45,160
Speaker 7: not much of a killer anymore, so twenty two long

1008
00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:45,680
Speaker 7: rifle does.

1009
00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:47,840
Speaker 1: What good would a magnum do? You is shooting a

1010
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:48,719
Speaker 1: squirrel out of a tree?

1011
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:51,480
Speaker 7: H You can kill two at one time, just if

1012
00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:53,360
Speaker 7: they're lined up. If they're lined up, you have no

1013
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:55,760
Speaker 7: problem of doing that. You got a little bit more range,

1014
00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:59,000
Speaker 7: more firepower, Okay, you know, collateral damage if you make

1015
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:01,919
Speaker 7: a bad headshot or whatever. There he's not gonna limp off.

1016
00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:04,960
Speaker 7: I've had lots of squirrels limp off through a headshot

1017
00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:10,319
Speaker 7: with a twenty two not you know. I did this

1018
00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:18,560
Speaker 7: comparison one time about this squirrel predator come to the

1019
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:22,880
Speaker 7: to the earth and he was hunting humans. So us humans,

1020
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:28,719
Speaker 7: we we hunt squirrels with a forty grain bullet twenty two.

1021
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:32,239
Speaker 7: So this squirrel predator guy comes here and so he

1022
00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:36,000
Speaker 7: wants to do something equivalent. So he's hunting humans. So

1023
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:38,040
Speaker 7: do you know what the equivalent? And it's been a

1024
00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:40,120
Speaker 7: while since they did the math, but what he would

1025
00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:40,879
Speaker 7: be shooting us.

1026
00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:42,920
Speaker 1: With probably like a fifty caliber.

1027
00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:46,040
Speaker 7: It'd be one pound fifty caliber seven hundred and twenty grains.

1028
00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 7: But I don't have many grains one pound, but it'd

1029
00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:51,400
Speaker 7: be a one pound projectile, is what you know. I

1030
00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:53,759
Speaker 7: get hit with a one pound in my pinky, I'm down.

1031
00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:58,680
Speaker 7: But that's the comparison that a little bitty two pound

1032
00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:02,680
Speaker 7: gray squirrel can take a four or forty grain head shot,

1033
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:06,000
Speaker 7: they run off, and then can you imagine being human

1034
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:09,439
Speaker 7: and taking a one pound projecting out anywhere in your head,

1035
00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:12,800
Speaker 7: You're gonna you're you're down, You're down, you get hit anywhere.

1036
00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:16,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, So okay, that's a that's a great answer, and

1037
00:53:16,600 --> 00:53:19,799
Speaker 1: I expect as much detail from all of you.

1038
00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:26,959
Speaker 3: Josh, I'm gonna have to say twenty two. I think

1039
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:30,480
Speaker 3: that I think that if you're gonna if your life

1040
00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:34,319
Speaker 3: depends on squirrel hunting, that you're left off, that you're

1041
00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:37,839
Speaker 3: going you're gonna hone your skills, so that killing a

1042
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:39,680
Speaker 3: squirrel to twenty two is gonna.

1043
00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:41,640
Speaker 1: Be I hope you go into the woods.

1044
00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:44,000
Speaker 4: Fee got it?

1045
00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:50,719
Speaker 1: Okay, yep, okay, cajon, I'm going shotgun, shotgun. This man

1046
00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:51,560
Speaker 1: wants to eat.

1047
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:55,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, and it's actually that's simple to leaves

1048
00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:58,720
Speaker 6: in the way and he's he's running down the limb.

1049
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:00,799
Speaker 6: I'm just I'm taking them out.

1050
00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:04,280
Speaker 1: I'm going to just deal with the collateral damage.

1051
00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:08,040
Speaker 6: Yeah. Well, and you know, sadly, to some people, I

1052
00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:11,000
Speaker 6: love to eat the brain. So I'm not shooting them

1053
00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:11,920
Speaker 6: in the head anyway.

1054
00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:15,239
Speaker 1: That is the best answer that I've heard for not

1055
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:17,840
Speaker 1: shooting them in the head with the twenty two because

1056
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:18,880
Speaker 1: most of the time.

1057
00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:22,240
Speaker 5: They get us his mind is spinning.

1058
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:26,400
Speaker 1: So you like to eat the brains? Yeah, that's a

1059
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:28,920
Speaker 1: that's a yeah, Yeah.

1060
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:31,520
Speaker 7: That's that's a what I wouldn't recommend for anybody to

1061
00:54:31,560 --> 00:54:34,360
Speaker 7: do any kind of brain of any species.

1062
00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:34,719
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1063
00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:36,720
Speaker 1: We had this conversation to stay.

1064
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:37,080
Speaker 7: Away from it.

1065
00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 6: So you cow brain.

1066
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:44,680
Speaker 1: No, yeah, yeah, there's no there's some in the last well,

1067
00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:46,440
Speaker 1: we don't have to get into it, but there's some

1068
00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:51,840
Speaker 1: disease potential. But makes your beard long and white.

1069
00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:52,880
Speaker 6: Yeah it will.

1070
00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:53,759
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1071
00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:56,520
Speaker 6: I also kind of feel like I think there's been

1072
00:54:56,600 --> 00:54:58,920
Speaker 6: disease around for a long time that we just never

1073
00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:02,960
Speaker 6: tested for. Probably, and I think if you cook everything properly,

1074
00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:07,359
Speaker 6: you're probably gonna You know, my grandmother passed away at

1075
00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:10,600
Speaker 6: nine age four years old, and she ate cow brains,

1076
00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:11,520
Speaker 6: and squirrel.

1077
00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:12,279
Speaker 4: Bridly got her, didn't it.

1078
00:55:12,560 --> 00:55:16,840
Speaker 6: You finally got her. That's That's what I'm gonna go

1079
00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:19,560
Speaker 6: back and redo a headstone, say squirrel brains got it.

1080
00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:26,080
Speaker 1: So shotgun, I got you, I got you. I know

1081
00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:28,520
Speaker 1: Brent's answer twenty two four to ten.

1082
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:33,520
Speaker 6: Twenty two, Man, that'll go four ten. You can't afford

1083
00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:34,080
Speaker 6: to shall.

1084
00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:38,120
Speaker 4: For real, you know, if that's just always been the thing.

1085
00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:42,560
Speaker 4: It was. We young man over here asked the question,

1086
00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:44,879
Speaker 4: first squirrel I ever kill was with it? Twenty two?

1087
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:47,759
Speaker 4: We hunted with dogs on horses, and that was just

1088
00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:51,399
Speaker 4: that was the three things that we did. You shot

1089
00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:54,120
Speaker 4: them with a twenty two. You had somebody, somebody would

1090
00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:57,160
Speaker 4: bring a shotgun in casey, you know, you made a

1091
00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:59,920
Speaker 4: bad shot and you're timbering squirrels and they just shoot

1092
00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:04,080
Speaker 4: on the wing or whatever. But it was dogs, horses

1093
00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:05,240
Speaker 4: and twenty two rifles.

1094
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:06,759
Speaker 6: Hey, let's go, I got you back.

1095
00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:08,680
Speaker 3: Sounds like a good country music album.

1096
00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:11,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you could aie that until number one hit.

1097
00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:14,359
Speaker 5: For most of my life, I've been a twenty two

1098
00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 5: squirrel shooter. And just like Kevin, a lot of my

1099
00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:21,280
Speaker 5: mentors and squirrel hunting they will tell you the twenty

1100
00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:25,760
Speaker 5: two magnum is superior. Now, recently in the past few weeks,

1101
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 5: when we were struggling to get squirrel on this.

1102
00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:30,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, here's the real test.

1103
00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:33,359
Speaker 5: When we're struggling to get squirrels and the leaves are

1104
00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:36,360
Speaker 5: on every tree, leave us, ma'am. I ain't even gonna

1105
00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:37,680
Speaker 5: tell you it was a twenty gage boys.

1106
00:56:37,719 --> 00:56:39,120
Speaker 4: That thing was twelve.

1107
00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:41,799
Speaker 1: Okay, knugging it.

1108
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:47,320
Speaker 5: And let me tell you what. Maybe I didn't literally

1109
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:50,920
Speaker 5: see the squirrel, but I seen the leaves moving, and

1110
00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:53,319
Speaker 5: then you're seeing the squirrel, and then I heard the

1111
00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:55,920
Speaker 5: squirrel dump on the ground. So if this was a

1112
00:56:55,960 --> 00:57:00,520
Speaker 5: survival situation, and we're talking that there could be a

1113
00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:05,760
Speaker 5: migration of evil squirrel like a zombie attack, it's twelve

1114
00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:06,719
Speaker 5: gags loaded.

1115
00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:08,880
Speaker 4: Up extended magazine.

1116
00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:11,799
Speaker 1: Yeah I had I hadn't put the scenario inside the

1117
00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:14,879
Speaker 1: World Championship Squirrel Cookoff, but you were there. You had

1118
00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:17,880
Speaker 1: no You had to get squirrel, and I went for

1119
00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:22,160
Speaker 1: the meat with the meat stick man. And everybody has

1120
00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:25,800
Speaker 1: heard has heard my philosophy. But like when we go

1121
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:30,280
Speaker 1: squirrel hunting with dogs on mules, ninety percent of the

1122
00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:34,520
Speaker 1: people out there have shotguns because when we get went by,

1123
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,760
Speaker 1: when we get to the tree, good percentage of the

1124
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:41,800
Speaker 1: time squirrels moving big timber and we're just wanting to

1125
00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:44,040
Speaker 1: bring home, We're just wanting to get squirrels.

1126
00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:46,760
