23
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: is a special year. But what did the uh what

24
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: did the thing on my rifles say? It says you

00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:50,120

28
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: that's my thing. So the home run King is here,

29
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 1: and then uh, Yanni's back from assignment. He still hasn't

30
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: listened to that, so we made of all with Yanni highlights.

31
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 1: Did you listen to it yet? I will to maybe

32
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 1: tomorrow on every plane ride home, I'll try. It really

33
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: surprises me that you wouldn't listen. I would feel that

34
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: because like you're like a co host and everything that

35
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: if you weren't there, you'd listen just out of like

36
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 1: a sense of obligation. Listen. I really want to, but

37
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: you know, my to do list is long. Maybe it

38
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,919
Speaker 1: was just a nice break. And then our other very

39
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: special guests, Houndsman, Uh Cody. When you use your last name,

40
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: I know you'd like to be a little under the

41
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 1: radar in life. Yeah, just a little bit. It'd be

42
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: our eyes Steve Cody. Yeah, there you go. I like that.

43
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 1: Good to be here. Yeah, give me a favorite Cody

44
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: and pull your mic a little closer to your mustache.

45
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:56,239
Speaker 1: There you go like that. Yeah, Um, I want to

46
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: get to the fight me and Yanni had. But I

47
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 1: think the real quick I want to say about Cody, uh,

48
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 1: probably the more most interest. If I was still a

49
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: magazine writer, I would be after you hard about the

50
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: fact that you one of your many revenue streams comes

51
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:22,679
Speaker 1: from retrieving wild catching wild cattle. That's a fact with

52
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 1: hound dogs, Yes, sir, can you explain real quick the

53
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 1: folks what like, uh like, what constitutes a wild wild cattle.

54
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: Most of the ranches around here they'll have some domesticated

55
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 1: livestock gon Ferrell, Right, they've been tried to been rounded

56
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 1: up together, but the resources they have are limited, meaning

57
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: that they ride out and try to chase it with

58
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: a quad runner exactly. Yeah, everything we do, most everything

59
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: we do is horseback and with dogs, you know, catch

60
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: to baby to catch. So the rancher will call up

61
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: and he'll be like, I rounded everything up, but there's

62
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: ten I can't catch exactly, then Dante put the hounds down, right,

63
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 1: But how do the hounds? How do the hounds um?

64
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 1: How do they know where to drive it? Like I

65
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,159
Speaker 1: can picture that they would catch it and surround it,

66
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 1: and that's what they do ultimately. Like the stuff that's

67
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: really wild, you want to uh the dogs to see

68
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 1: it first. They don't. You shouldn't even be in the

69
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: picture for quite some time. And you want to sneak

70
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: in real easy because what they're scared of, obviously is

71
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: a human being. You know, they haven't had bay dogs

72
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: on them. But you bay them up. Ultimately, you bay

73
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: them up and then easy and and he's out, easy

74
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: in and then until you until you close the distance,

75
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: and then you start roping them. And so that's what

76
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 1: you're doing, subduing the creature. Yeah, right, you're throwing a

77
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 1: lariat around it exactly. I thought you somehow we're driving

78
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 1: them with the dogs. Well, you can do that the

79
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: dogs and follow you and push the cow along and

80
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: they will, like I have some dogs like three or

81
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 1: four that'll bay and then if you ride in, they'll

82
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 1: opposet me and go to the other side of the

83
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 1: cattle and then push cattle to the horse, and then

84
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 1: the cattle get a sense of security and they come

85
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: to the horseback, you know, the rider, and then you

86
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 1: can you can go in some pretty rough country and

87
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 1: get some pretty pretty bad stuff out that way. Uh

88
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: what would be? How many can you catch in today?

89
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 1: Oh gosh, depends on how bad they are, you know,

90
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: and how much they've been molested throughout their life, and

91
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: how many tricks they know, you know, has some stuff

92
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: just been quattered around and kind of you know, messed

93
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:42,719
Speaker 1: with their pretty pretty easy to change their mind, but

94
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: if they've been through it a bunch. Have you ever

95
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:51,720
Speaker 1: met when you couldn't catch How many have you ever

96
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,799
Speaker 1: caught in a single day? Oh gosh, it just depends,

97
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: Like bay ups, I would say, on a good day,

98
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 1: with help, of course, you know, usually have some cowboys

99
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 1: helping me just to tie and or whatever rope once

100
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: we get getting bade up with the dogs. But man,

101
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 1: i'd say, on a good day and really good pickings,

102
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,159
Speaker 1: you know, twenty head, you know, and sometimes you'll strike

103
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: a deal where the ranch are so fed up with them,

104
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 1: you'll strike a deal where you'll you'll get a the

105
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: sale price exactly everything you can catch, right they're ready

106
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,720
Speaker 1: to set that, the ranch is ready to sacrifice that

107
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 1: to get you someone to catch them, most definitely, because

108
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 1: what happens is like on a on a on the

109
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,239
Speaker 1: big outfits, you'll have some pretty wild or feral cattle

110
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: that will teach your good cattle bad habits, you know,

111
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 1: and so that incentivizes them to get them off exactly.

112
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: You know, you might get you some really good angus

113
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,720
Speaker 1: or you know, a good commercial herd, and you want

114
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 1: to interject it into a ranch that has some wild

115
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 1: stuff on it. Well, you'll start losing pieces because they

116
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 1: you know, they'll start ganging up together and got Yeah,

117
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: you gotta start with a clean slate, like yeah, and

118
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 1: then you'll go as far as so you live in

119
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: southern Colorado and you'll stray as far as Utah, Nevada. Yeah,

120
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 1: we'll cast some cattle out in California even Yeah. How

121
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: long do you stay? How long do you stay when

122
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: you go out to catch cattle just kind of depends

123
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: on the project and how many there is, and you know,

124
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 1: on what condition your horses and dogs are in. After

125
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: a while, sometimes it beat you up a little bit,

126
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 1: you know, and you camp out while you're doing it.

127
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: Most certainly, Yes, sir. Have you ever stayed somewhere for

128
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: a month catching wild cattle? Oh? Yeah, yeah, I was

129
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: out in the Utah desert for about six months, kind

130
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: of taking care of a place that what's pretty rugged

131
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: and wild, just catching cows. Yeah, that's a hell of

132
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: a business. How do people find you got a name

133
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: for your business? Are you looking for more business? I

134
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: don't at the present time, but yeah, we're doing all right.

135
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 1: So you don't need to. You don't need to like

136
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: you got you don't put a plug in here. I

137
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: don't imagine you have like a website. No, sir, Yeah,

138
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 1: I don't even have electricity at my house. And I

139
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: take that back. I did get solar about four months ago,

140
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 1: two hundred and sixty five panels. So how many dogs

141
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 1: you got? How many horses you got? Just a couple?

142
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: Do you bring that whole slew of dogs when you

143
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: go to catch wild cattle? Oh? I got some dogs

144
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,959
Speaker 1: in particularly that stay home, like I got just one

145
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 1: or two. But for the most part, everybody goes. Even

146
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 1: my lion dogs like or hog dogs. They all they're multipurpose.

147
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: So you got like hog dogs, lion dogs, and cattle dogs.

148
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 1: And they're all the same dogs. Yes, okay, they's got

149
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 1: wiry different hats. Yeah, how do you how do you

150
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: keep your lion dogs from running lions when they're when

151
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 1: you're chasing cattle And that's the thing like usually you're

152
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: in and I wouldn't mind it, you know, if they

153
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: did kind of go do their deal, as long as

154
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: they're staying straight on what I want. But usually if

155
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 1: you set your dog down in cattle country, you're the

156
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: likelihood that you catching the line is you know, slim

157
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: to none. And when you go hunt a hog, you're

158
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 1: you're in cattle country, but there's usually not a lot

159
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: of lions in hog country. Well how do you how

160
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: does he know where these running hogs or cattle? Well,

161
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 1: you put them on them, you know, you start the

162
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: track and say that's what we're gonna hunt today, man.

163
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: And they're smart dogs, you know. I started out my ultimately,

164
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: my the first dogs that I had was mostly Catahoula,

165
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,680
Speaker 1: and then I injected a little bit of red tick

166
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 1: English red tick into him and then now I went

167
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: to some Argentine dogo with the mix. But you know,

168
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,839
Speaker 1: they're they're fast, fast to catch, and they'll still put

169
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 1: their nose on the ground to trail and they're fun

170
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 1: to hunt. Yeah you're saying, you're telling I mean one

171
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 1: of your lion hounds. Um, we'll visually track the line,

172
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: but you'll see the track right and run along and

173
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 1: just check it now and then. But he said he

174
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: can still grind it out if you need to. Yeah, yeah,

175
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 1: he'll cheat a bit, you know, especially on fresh snow.

176
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,680
Speaker 1: You know there's a and they'll get in the dirt too,

177
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: And there's been a that's a whole another deal controversy,

178
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 1: controversy about dry tracks or dirt tracks versus snow tracks.

179
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 1: You know, how's that a controversy? Well, as far as

180
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: all the guys that do it on dry ground are badass,

181
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:40,320
Speaker 1: that's the controversy. I mean a snow track up here.

182
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: I've seen snow tracks that you would look at it

183
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: and swear to be damned that she could that was

184
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:49,840
Speaker 1: the last night track, but it might be a week old,

185
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 1: and you know, the scent is dissipated through it. Anyways,

186
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 1: it's and sometimes I'm psyching you don't like dry ground

187
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 1: guys talking all about how they're badass and you're not.

188
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 1: I think there's uh yeah, there's just certain places for

189
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,319
Speaker 1: certain dogs. And so would your dogs be able to

190
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: catch a lion down in Arizona with no snow? Yeah,

191
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,680
Speaker 1: we hunt it south of here in New Mexico quite

192
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 1: a bit down the red dirt, the buffs and uh,

193
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 1: it's short cedar country and it's mostly dirt. But even

194
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 1: down there, you know, the freezing the thaw is what

195
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 1: gets you ultimately, Like even with its snow or snow

196
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 1: or dirt, like it's it's a scent that's held in

197
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 1: the track and that freezing, that thaw just slowly dissipates it.

198
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 1: So in the in the dirt conditions, Um, the right

199
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 1: kind of dirt I believe will hold scent longer than

200
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,680
Speaker 1: a snow track. And and there's different types of snow

201
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:49,199
Speaker 1: that will hold a scent longer than uh just regular snow.

202
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: Snow ain't just snow once it's the ground. It could

203
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 1: be wet, or it could be fluffy or what's what's

204
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: the best kind of snow for holding scent? Uh, And

205
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: just a little bit of more cheering it seems, you know,

206
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 1: not it not the real fluffy stuff that dry, dusty powder. Yeah,

207
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 1: it kind of kicks back into itself. And you don't

208
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 1: want a real wet track, it seems because it leaches. Maybe,

209
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: And I'm just saying, but yeah, how many lions have

210
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 1: you caught in your life? Oh gosh, man, I don't know.

211
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 1: I've only been doing it like eighteen seventeen, eighteen years.

212
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 1: Telling you my first year is pretty dry. We chased

213
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: him and that was before callers. You know that, even

214
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: the telemetry. I didn't have a settle telemetry until two

215
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 1: or three years later. But mostly it was set your

216
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 1: hounds down, you know, and go. You just listened to

217
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: him and try and follow him. And that was usually

218
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 1: a ship rock. But uh, okay, I wanna get back

219
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 1: to fighting, and Joanni, heck, I thought about it, Johnnie.

220
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 1: Yanni took offense. I was saying, yeah, I got into

221
00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 1: his head. No, I mean, explain everything, and you tell

222
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 1: me if I explain it wrong. I was saying that, um,

223
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 1: I would that I don't understand when people send away

224
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 1: their kids to boarding school because I want my kids

225
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 1: around so I can snuggle them. And I was like, man,

226
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:22,199
Speaker 1: I would hate if they had left earlier than is natural.

227
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 1: Yanni took offense at this, not because he thinks that

228
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 1: it's great to send your kids off a boarding school

229
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:32,679
Speaker 1: and not snuggle them. But because he took offense at

230
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 1: the idea that one would describe something as natural when

231
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 1: there's plenty of places in the world where you don't

232
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 1: move away from home at all and you stay in

233
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 1: your tight in your family unit for the whole life.

234
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 1: And I thought about it this morning. If I said

235
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 1: to you, uh, white tail dear have their breeding season

236
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 1: in mid November, it's natural for them to do that,

237
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: would you be like, uh? Because is they rot in

238
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 1: January and Mexico? So does that make it unnatural that

239
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 1: they rout in mid November elsewhere? That's what you were

240
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 1: trying to do to me this morning. And now that

241
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 1: I present to you that way, you're left speechless. You

242
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 1: got you had many hours to think about it. Okay,

243
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 1: So now that you're coming back at me with a debate,

244
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 1: I think you should give me at least more than

245
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: three seconds before you say I'm speechless about this. Um, Okay,

246
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 1: you want me to give you you want me You

247
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 1: want to come back to it. No, I think I can.

248
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 1: I can give you a rebuttal right now. Um, I

249
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 1: think that it's uh, how do I put it? Oh?

250
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: You're a learned thing. You left home, yeah, and went

251
00:14:54,360 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: away far away, Yeah, never to return. It's sad to

252
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:06,520
Speaker 1: think about sometimes. Was that unnatural? I don't know perfectly natural.

253
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: I just felt like it was the wrong use of

254
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 1: the word, that's all. What will be the right word? Well,

255
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: I think you figured it out after we started talking

256
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 1: about You said that it was like culturally not the norm.

257
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so I think for the deer, I took

258
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: offense that you taken offense. I hurt my feelings. Um,

259
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 1: can you tell everyone real quick, yann about your Colorado alcunt,

260
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 1: real quick hunting story, whatever you need. Then then we're

261
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 1: gonna then we're gonna narrow in on Pete Alonzo's big hunt. Yeah. Yeah,

262
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 1: it was good. You know I burned um like twelve

263
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 1: or thirteen points. Yeah, you need to know which because

264
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 1: I have a bet with Brody that it was in

265
00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 1: the teens. Oh, it was definitely in the teens. I

266
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 1: want my bet. Definitely the teens. Even my buddy Ethan,

267
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: who drew the tag with me, was in the teens

268
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 1: as a resident. He was eleven, I think, and I

269
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 1: had one or two more than he did. And uh,

270
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 1: I had known about the unit for a while and

271
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: been thinking about it for a while. What was your

272
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 1: exposure to it? Just people friends and people I met

273
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 1: through the industry, people that lived around it, you know,

274
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: had good things to say about it. And um, unfortunately

275
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 1: I'm setting the stage for sort of like a letdown.

276
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 1: He can he can feel it coming because I didn't

277
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: end up killing the bi little giant that I was,

278
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 1: you know that you hope for when you burn twelve

279
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 1: or thirteen points on a unit. Um. But we had

280
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 1: a great hunt. The best part about the hunt was

281
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 1: I had to hang on my buddy Ethan, who was,

282
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 1: yeah and definitely like my main mentor over all my

283
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: elk hunting years. He's like the guy that definitely took

284
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 1: me from just like could dude that kind of knew

285
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 1: how to walk around in the woods and would bump

286
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 1: into stuff every now and then, to someone that could

287
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 1: get it done on a regular basis. Um. So that

288
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 1: was rat to you know, be able to share an

289
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:15,200
Speaker 1: elk camp with him. And we had a photographer with

290
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 1: us that captured the the action for us. And then

291
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 1: another buddy of ours, uh Jim, that came down from

292
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 1: Eagle County and helped us out on the hunt. The

293
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: hunting was rad like aside from not being never finding

294
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 1: a giant bull like anything over three. Um, well, was

295
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:43,479
Speaker 1: it just dudes everywhere? No superlimited? Yeah? Um, we definitely

296
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,879
Speaker 1: there were some camps around, but like you never felt

297
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,720
Speaker 1: like the elk were even pressured, like every every day

298
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 1: you could have just walked in the woods and shot

299
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:54,880
Speaker 1: a bull within an hour during prime time. Oh yeah,

300
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,639
Speaker 1: we had like great bugling action. Um. And I was

301
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 1: kind of torn between because they are bugling in his

302
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,639
Speaker 1: own where you cut in glass, as well as I

303
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:05,160
Speaker 1: would like to just to be able to look over

304
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 1: a lot of critters. So I was torn between like

305
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 1: jumping in and having great fun bugling and chasing the

306
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,120
Speaker 1: herd around and and trying to look look pick over

307
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: bulls that way versus trying to just look at a

308
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: bunch of open country and trying to find a big one.

309
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 1: We had very similar weather to what we had this week,

310
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: meaning that it was like unseasonably warm, dry, no precipitation. Um,

311
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 1: so they were definitely not hanging out long, not not

312
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: being you know, like I felt like the big bulls

313
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 1: had left the herds and they weren't being like forced

314
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:42,679
Speaker 1: to go out into the open and feed. You know,

315
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 1: they were just tucked away in some hole and it

316
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,639
Speaker 1: was gonna take a little bit of a miracle, you know,

317
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 1: to catch one sticking his nose out five minutes before dark,

318
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 1: you know. Um, so yeah, sweet sweet hunt and um

319
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 1: the last day, how many you think you looked at?

320
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:06,680
Speaker 1: How many bulls? I don't know, say average five a day?

321
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:11,400
Speaker 1: How many could you take in the poke at mm hmm,

322
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:16,919
Speaker 1: I don't know twenty, No kidding? One evening? Yeah, I

323
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 1: saw how many bolds we see that night, not counting spikes.

324
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 1: I think seven branch chandler bulls like in this one

325
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 1: little drainage that we cruised around in. But just all

326
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 1: youngsters I had throwing all my Colorado out points into

327
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 1: the garbage. Hadn't. Oh, but you never would have caught

328
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: up with the point creek that's going on in Colorado.

329
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,920
Speaker 1: You only had like five, and as I burned thirteen,

330
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 1: you never would have made it in your whole life

331
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 1: if it keeps going like it's been going. Yeah, because

332
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,160
Speaker 1: next year you'd have six and it would take fourteen

333
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,120
Speaker 1: to draw. Then you'd have seven and take fifteen. You'd

334
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 1: always be behind by quite a few it's a problem

335
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 1: that they're trying to deal with. Here's got a lot

336
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 1: of problems, man. So anyways, yeah, it all started when

337
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: they legalized weed, you think, so, um yeah, super fun hunt.

338
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 1: Just never found the big one, oh quick thing. But

339
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 1: you had fun. But you left everybody like they don't

340
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 1: know you got one. Yeah, I got one on the

341
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 1: last day with ten minutes left the morning. We were

342
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,959
Speaker 1: hunting like a small, little teeny tiny drainage where I

343
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 1: was hoping that like it was off the beaten path,

344
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 1: there was no trail going to it, and I had

345
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 1: not seen any boot tracks in it. And We've gotten

346
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,480
Speaker 1: a hot tip to go and check this out from

347
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: from from locals, and uh so we went in there,

348
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,439
Speaker 1: and we were just looking at some pretty small, like

349
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:53,240
Speaker 1: south facing steep rocky slopes that you know, don't look

350
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 1: like great habitat, but it could be a place where

351
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 1: one could be hide and you know, and I didn't

352
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,160
Speaker 1: see the elk in there, but while we were in there,

353
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 1: I could look up and see like some alpine country

354
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 1: and I saw two big herds move into this basin

355
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: and uh too far away to even like even with

356
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 1: like the spot and scope to see if there was

357
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 1: any Like I could see bulls, but I couldn't see

358
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 1: what they were, And so we decided to go in

359
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 1: there that afternoon. You think he'll one that morning, So

360
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 1: we went and packed his bull out. Was it a

361
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 1: giant Nope, he had like he was in the magic

362
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:31,120
Speaker 1: circle all morning and had let him all walk by,

363
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 1: like kind of died down. And so he was just

364
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,479
Speaker 1: kind of slowly cruising back to the truck, and all

365
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 1: of a sudden, right below him, he just heard a

366
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 1: little and he just crept over to the edge and

367
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 1: there was one bed at like fifty yards and it

368
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 1: was kind of like, yes, this is the perfect opportunity.

369
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: So he rolled him yep, and it's bed. Where do

370
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 1: you get that, Cody? What's that shooting something in his bed?

371
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:00,879
Speaker 1: If you're sneaking, have to get up on it. I

372
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: think it's all all good me too. People get pissed

373
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 1: about that. Yeah, I don't know why. I mean, because

374
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 1: they're not good at sneaking. They get jealous. Gotta get

375
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 1: in there. A monkst him. I shot a bucket in

376
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 1: s bed this year. He never flinched. Yeah, it's controversial

377
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 1: because people, It's controversial for two reasons. One reason is

378
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 1: that people think it's unsportsmanlike, Like it's sportsman like to

379
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,679
Speaker 1: shoot him when they're running away from you, but not

380
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 1: sports like to shoot him when you've stuck up on him.

381
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,160
Speaker 1: They don't know you're there or something. And because somehow

382
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 1: they feel like that you're they're at the disadvantage because

383
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:42,400
Speaker 1: they're sleeping, their eyes are closed. And then it's controversial

384
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: to shoot something that's bad for good reason, in part

385
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:51,439
Speaker 1: because it's it's hard to shot. Placement's difficult. Sometimes it's

386
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 1: hard to tell what's going on, definitely, So that's the

387
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 1: thing you gotta watch out for, is can you tell

388
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:59,400
Speaker 1: what's going on? What about shooting a duck on water, Well,

389
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 1: that's really great point. Why is it bad to shoot

390
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,919
Speaker 1: a turkey in the air, Good to shoot it on

391
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 1: the ground. Good to shoot a duck in the air,

392
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 1: bad to shoot it on the ground. It's confusing. It

393
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: is if I was duck hunting by myself in the

394
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:23,479
Speaker 1: duck landing in the decourse, dude, bank Town. But when

395
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:27,400
Speaker 1: you're with people, everybody looks at each other nervously. Oh,

396
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 1: if you're with me, you're gonna watch my gun go off.

397
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 1: I'm not that good at shooting and flying man. So

398
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: if I can, you know, get a bonus one towards

399
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 1: my limit like that, I'll take it. Um. So in

400
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:45,359
Speaker 1: the afternoon we decided, Joe and I decided to go

401
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: after him, and uh, it was a commitment. It was

402
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: about three miles. We knew we had to go about

403
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,400
Speaker 1: three miles and had to climb close to two thousand

404
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: feet to get to where they were where we had

405
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 1: last seen him, and I'd watch him till like so

406
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 1: I you that they had they weren't gonna go much farther.

407
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:04,640
Speaker 1: And as soon as we got the elevation to where

408
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,199
Speaker 1: we could see right into this little it was like

409
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: a I don't wanta say miniature, basically an avalanche shoot,

410
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 1: but uh kind of mellow. It didn't look like it

411
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: slid a lot, you know. It was more like a

412
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 1: just a real steep grassy meadow rocky above. And uh

413
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 1: we got first got eyes on him, and we were

414
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: maybe fift hundred plus yards away, and we saw this

415
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: bowl and all I could see was like a really

416
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: long main beam and a giant fourth and I thought, man,

417
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,199
Speaker 1: here it is last day. It's all gonna come together.

418
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 1: So I didn't even bust out the spotting scope. I

419
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: just said, let's go, and we had to. They were

420
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 1: sort of feeding on the opposite side of this the

421
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,159
Speaker 1: The shoot was bowl like and we were kind of

422
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 1: on a knob looking into it, and we had to

423
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 1: roll all the way around this knob and then get

424
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:54,679
Speaker 1: on the face with him. And we tried to go

425
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 1: down off the knob and thought we'd get close enough

426
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,119
Speaker 1: to where we could kind of shoot across into him.

427
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 1: But once we got to within range, like sub five

428
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 1: U uh, I just couldn't get a shooting lane at all.

429
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 1: So we had to climb back out and got on

430
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 1: the face with him and just waiting for the wind

431
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:12,879
Speaker 1: was good. It was dropping down the face at that

432
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:14,880
Speaker 1: point and just started. We got a great elk trail

433
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:19,160
Speaker 1: that went right through the timber right at this open avalanche,

434
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 1: you know, meadow, and just kept sneaking, sneaking, sneaking, And

435
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,160
Speaker 1: then it's like, I don't know, when I was probably

436
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 1: sixty yards from the edge of the meadow, I could

437
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,719
Speaker 1: start to see, you know, elk moving in the meadow

438
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: and got a little closer and uh, I could see

439
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 1: the bowl, and that moment I glassed him up and

440
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 1: I realized that he wasn't you know what I was

441
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:41,160
Speaker 1: after the Nice Bowl. You know, he's he's cool, but

442
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 1: not not the big the big giant. Yeah, but the

443
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:46,880
Speaker 1: hunt was pretty much over. I had like at that point,

444
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 1: I had thirty minutes left in my season, and I'm like, Joe,

445
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 1: we could kill this bowl. We're gonna be packing elk

446
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:58,479
Speaker 1: me all day tomorrow. And he was just like, this

447
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 1: dude's gotten into hunting. It like probably the age of fifty,

448
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,239
Speaker 1: maybe fifty plus. He's about to turn a sixty and

449
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 1: it's so jazz and stoked on it that when I

450
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 1: turned around and kind of posed the question to like,

451
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 1: should should we kill or should we just happily roll

452
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,439
Speaker 1: off the mountain under the stars and be done with it,

453
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,399
Speaker 1: he was just like, get him, take him down, you know,

454
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,199
Speaker 1: like I don't want this to end. And uh, you know,

455
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 1: my buddy Jimmy, he wanted some elk meat, and so

456
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:28,720
Speaker 1: it wasn't a done deal, but I still had to

457
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 1: I had to sneak in there. By the time I

458
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 1: got a little bit closer, I had to fight off,

459
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 1: not fight off, but I was fighting all these calves

460
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 1: that were feeding right where I was trying to get to.

461
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,200
Speaker 1: So they put their head down and move a little bit.

462
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 1: They lift their head up and they'd be chewing and

463
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: kind of they'd look at me, stare a little bit,

464
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 1: but then look away and put their head down. I'd

465
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 1: take another step or two. You can get a little

466
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 1: way a lot with calves, you know, they just don't

467
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 1: they haven't put two and two together yet. They're only

468
00:26:55,640 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 1: what at that point, they're six months old, right, And uh, Anyways,

469
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 1: he ends up me embedded. So I get into like

470
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 1: fifty sixty yards. Yeah, the bulls bedded out in the meadow.

471
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:09,959
Speaker 1: I'm like maybe now ten fifteen yards from the edge

472
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 1: of the meadow, and I'm trying to get a shooting lane.

473
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 1: But I got some branches still in front of me,

474
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,920
Speaker 1: and he's bedded, and he's kind of quartering away, and

475
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 1: there's a cow behind him, and it's getting dark. And

476
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 1: finally I stand up and I kind of moved to

477
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 1: my left and getting next to this tree, and I

478
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 1: just leaning against a tree. I still couldn't get the

479
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,480
Speaker 1: angle I needed, but then I just brought my gun

480
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:31,959
Speaker 1: up on this little branch and I kind of had

481
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,160
Speaker 1: to almost get on my tippy toes and from there,

482
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 1: I had a clear sight path. Coincidentally, at the same time,

483
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 1: the one calf finally saw me going through all those

484
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,159
Speaker 1: motions and she's sort of you know, bounced out a

485
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 1: little bit and it got everybody on their feet, and

486
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 1: once he got on his feet, it was I had

487
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: a you know, just a nice easy shooting lane. Yeah,

488
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 1: you know, I shot him, and hard to tell because everything.

489
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 1: It was late in the day and so I didn't

490
00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:04,640
Speaker 1: get to do a great neck crops knee crops knee

491
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 1: cropsy because it was dark out later, you know, so

492
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 1: it's hard to tell what happened. But the first shot

493
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 1: didn't bring him down, it stunned him. He was dead

494
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 1: on his feet. So I ran out after him. He

495
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 1: had gone maybe fifty yards and he was just facing away,

496
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 1: standing there, kind of wobbling, just ears pinned back, you know,

497
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:25,639
Speaker 1: sick but not falling over, and um, I almost actually

498
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 1: just ran at him a little bit more or try

499
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,719
Speaker 1: to change positions so I could get one in broadside,

500
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 1: and eventually he just he turned enough broadside that shot

501
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 1: again and that tipped him over. So yeah, it was sweet. Yeah,

502
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 1: he's a big adventure and the bull like tell him

503
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 1: how to go find you on because they'll be able

504
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 1: to find a picture of it on Instagram. Yeah, I

505
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 1: actually haven't. I need to post a um do a

506
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 1: little post about that hunt. But I'll have it up

507
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 1: there by the time you guys listen to this. But

508
00:28:54,640 --> 00:29:00,120
Speaker 1: it's uh my handles your honest underscore to tell us. Um.

509
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 1: But he's got a cool main beam that at his force,

510
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,480
Speaker 1: it almost does a hard ninety both main beams, and

511
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: they almost come back together. The tips are probably only

512
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 1: I don't know, what do you think ten twelve inches apart? Yeah?

513

00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 1: you weren't there and you haven't listened the We had

515
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 1: an emergency room doctor talking about all kinds of things

516
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,880
Speaker 1: that bad things that happened to hunters and anglers. And

517
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 1: he suggested that when you bust your tooth off and

518
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 1: the nerves hanging out and it hurts real bad, do

519
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 1: you put um super glue on there to seal it

520
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 1: up so that so the air isn't touching it. My dentist,

521
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: Kevin said, man, don't do that, creep piece of feedback. Uh,

522
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 1: he didn't have an alternative. He said, you're gonna wind

523
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 1: up gluing your lip to your tooth, your lips to

524
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,959
Speaker 1: your lip. He just thought it sounded like not smart.

525
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: Those things can hurt, they hurt. I would let you

526
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 1: administer that, because, especially if it was a top to

527
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 1: youth and you're just trying to squirt super blue up

528
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: in there, you would end up do it very delicately.

529
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:16,719
Speaker 1: I'd lay it in there, just perfect to yourself, do

530
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 1: you That's what I'm saying. I wouldn't want to do

531
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 1: it to myself because you can't see you. I would

532
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 1: end up not know. We're eating talking about director for day.

533
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 1: So Peterlans will tell everybody where you're from. I'm from Tampa, Florida,

534

535
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 1: New York Mets. UH live in Manhattan and UH for

536
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 1: the summer. I live in UH live in New York City,

537
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:46,600
Speaker 1: just twenty four years old. Played in high school, YEP,

538
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 1: played in college, left college of playing the miners. He

539
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 1: was trying to say, he couldn't tell you were trying

540
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 1: to You were saying, I don't know if I should

541
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 1: say I'm auld dropout or what were you asking? I

542
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,160
Speaker 1: didn't know if I wanted to tell people that I

543
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 1: got my degree from college in baseball, or that I

544
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,959
Speaker 1: was a college dropout baseball. And I said that what

545
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 1: you should say is you left college to play professional baseball. Yeah,

546
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 1: I think that that one sounds the best out of

547
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 1: all the options. I think that one sounds good. You

548
00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 1: told me you were a dropout. Yeah, I think it's

549
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 1: kind of funny. True. My old man dropped out of

550
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 1: high school to go fight in World War Two. I

551
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:29,480
Speaker 1: mean that's bad. I don't think it's like, yeah, I

552
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 1: don't think it's just I wouldn't say he's a dropout

553
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 1: right because it's a it's kind of like a bigger

554
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 1: life calling or your journey, your your journey of life

555
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:42,560
Speaker 1: that you guess you kind of go on. So you

556
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 1: knew you were gonna Like at what point you know

557
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 1: you're gonna be a professional ball player, Steve, I had

558
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 1: no plan b at all, Like from like, believe it

559
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 1: or not. My first word as like a baby was ball.

560
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 1: That was my first word. Yeah, you know, I don't

561
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 1: want to pop your bowl, but that's a That was

562
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 1: my first word. But for me, it's it's kind of

563
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 1: fitting um. And I'm only joking with you like that. Yeah,

564
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 1: I mean for me, it fits. And I mean when

565
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:18,080
Speaker 1: I was younger, um, from preschool all the way throughout

566
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 1: high school, like every single level of my life, I've

567
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 1: always wanted to be a professional baseball player, and I

568
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 1: dedicated all my energy, my time, um to uh to

569
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 1: be a big league ball player. That's were your parents

570
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 1: were your parents Like, oh, enough already with the baseball. No.

571
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 1: I mean I played I played like five sports one year. Um.

572
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 1: I mean in middle school, I played lacrosse, football, soccer, basketball,

573
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 1: and baseball. I mean I feel like in the sports world,

574
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 1: like I grew up playing a bunch of different sports.

575
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: I mean I tried a lot of them. I love

576
00:32:55,520 --> 00:33:00,080
Speaker 1: I love sports, I love outdoor activities. UM. But for me,

577
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 1: it's like my true passion and love is um is baseball.

578
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 1: And I'm just really fortunate that I get to pay.

579
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 1: I get paid to play a game. When you started

580
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 1: in college, I'm not really fromiling how this goes. You're

581
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 1: in college, it's better to be it's And also someone

582
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: says that you can come be in the minor leagues

583
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 1: and that's preferable to play in college. That's like a

584
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:30,120
Speaker 1: step closer. Well, it kind of depends, like, um, you

585
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 1: can get drafted out of high school, UM at eighteen

586
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 1: years old. But the downside of that, if you're not UH,

587
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: if you're not giving or offered UH, like money, you

588
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 1: can't refuse, Like if you're offered a million dollars to

589
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 1: turn down the college experience UH to go play professional baseball.

590
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: I mean, at the end of the day, it's, UM,

591
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 1: you want to be in the big leagues. Like you

592
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 1: can dream of playing for the college you grew up for,

593
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 1: but at the end of the day, you want to

594
00:33:58,040 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 1: end up in the in the show, you end up

595
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 1: the big leagues. UM. But for me, it's like I

596
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 1: wasn't drafted out of high school. I didn't really have

597
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 1: that option to go play professional baseball at eighteen years old.

598
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:13,880
Speaker 1: So for me, I kinda I mean, if I if

599
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 1: someone says I'm not good enough at something, I I

600
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 1: take it personally, and I work harder and I try

601
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,319
Speaker 1: and shows as much as the results as possible to

602
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 1: UM to put myself in that position to get that chance.

603
00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 1: If if that would make sense. So when I went

604
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:35,879
Speaker 1: into college, UM, I just wanted to make the most

605
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 1: of my time so I could have a chance at

606
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:43,279
Speaker 1: the big leagues. And I didn't care how like if

607
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 1: I had to go through the minors or not. And

608
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 1: I mean, whatever the path I had to take, I

635
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 1: who likes wearing shoes on the beach. I don't think

636
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 1: any of it's just rocks on the shot. You won't

637
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:24,719
Speaker 1: like the beaches at Steve's cabin, dude, Yeah, the barnacles, man,

00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:32,880
Speaker 1: You have to wear waiters and uh and rubber boots

640
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 1: the whole time I got you. You want to have

641
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 1: a beach experience? Yeah? And then are you able to

642
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:45,919
Speaker 1: concentrate while eating mars you know, cherries out of my glass? Absolutely? Absolutely?

643
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:51,239

644
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 1: Like and did she believe you? Like you're like, oh,

646
00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:05,479
Speaker 1: I don't think she said like whatever, Um, I think,

647
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 1: I mean I think that she would have that didn't

648
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 1: matter what I did. I think. I mean she told me,

Speaker 1: I mean she told her dad that she would have

650
00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,520

651
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 1: I don't think he was necessarily the what I did. Um,

652
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:26,399
Speaker 1: I think it's just the chemistry and the relationship. I mean,

653
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:28,799
Speaker 1: she's she's awesome. She's my soul mate. I mean, I

Speaker 1: can't picture going through life without her because I mean

655
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 1: she's I mean, she's my rock, like she keeps I mean,

00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:58,360
Speaker 1: So what we did just to bring people up speed

897
00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:07,000
Speaker 1: is a friend of mine has a ranch in Colorado

898
00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:10,040
Speaker 1: and he uses the ranch. Um he's been on that,

Speaker 1: he's been Matt, he's been on the show a couple

900
00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:16,520

901
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:25,160
Speaker 1: wounded veterans to hunt on his ranch. He takes business clients, friends,

902
00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:27,560
Speaker 1: uses it for fun. Like I first came out here

903
00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:32,960
Speaker 1: to do a TRCP fundraiser. Like TRCP, Theodore Roosevelt Conservation

904
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:36,399
Speaker 1: Partnership will auction off like last year they auctioned off

905
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 1: a deal where four people could come out too, could

906
00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:44,640
Speaker 1: hunt out and two could fish. And so I hunted

907
00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:50,520
Speaker 1: with Um. One of the guys Jana's hunting was another guy,

908
00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:53,760
Speaker 1: and then Cody is a what do you call yourself?

909
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:56,399
Speaker 1: You're like a ranch manager? Yeah, hunt man, I don't

910
00:51:56,400 --> 00:52:00,360
Speaker 1: know that. Yeah. In addition to catching cattle and lines

911
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:03,719
Speaker 1: and whatnot, jack of all trades. So we did these

912
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:08,280
Speaker 1: this fundraiser hunt and it came out here and Matt has, uh,

913
00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:12,560
Speaker 1: if your own properties in Colorado, you can get these,

914
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:15,160
Speaker 1: you get like these tag vouchers that you're able to use.

915
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:19,359
Speaker 1: So we were able to very much like on the

916
00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:23,080
Speaker 1: spur of the moment, playing a hunt without needing to

917
00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:27,080
Speaker 1: do the applications to get a permit because we've got

918
00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:31,160
Speaker 1: the vouchers. So we came out to hunt deer and

919
00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:32,880
Speaker 1: then you were able to buy it over the counter.

920
00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:37,920
Speaker 1: ELK tag. Um, what all like when we came out

921
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:41,239
Speaker 1: to do is what all were your expectations and and

922
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:45,760
Speaker 1: like apprehensions and expectations. I mean I was I felt

00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:23,920
Speaker 1: guys um did when you were imagining it, Like you

934
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:26,080
Speaker 1: played so now you play baseball and everything you do

935
00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:30,680
Speaker 1: is filmed, right, you're filming the game. It's being put

936
00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:36,320
Speaker 1: on as a spectator sport um. And like you the

937
00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:40,279
Speaker 1: way you're there to produce a thing that's watched, you

938
00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:43,520
Speaker 1: know whatever means that you personally like, that's what justifies

939
00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 1: the whole thing is it's an audience participation thing. Um.

940
00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:51,520
Speaker 1: To know that you were gonna come and we're gonna

941
00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:54,600
Speaker 1: hunt and we're gonna film it for a television show.

942
00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:58,839
Speaker 1: Did that make it seem more Uh? Does that make

943
00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:02,880
Speaker 1: it seem more in line with how your life goes anyways?

944
00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:05,800
Speaker 1: Or did it feel like, Oh, I wish we weren't

945
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:08,160
Speaker 1: doing that. I wish we were just going out for fun. No,

946
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:12,520
Speaker 1: I mean if because for me, it's like in the

947
00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:15,960
Speaker 1: world of baseball, it's it's a game of failure, in

948
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:19,600
Speaker 1: a game of disappointment. Like if you fail seventy percent

949
00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:24,520
Speaker 1: of the time throughout your entire career, you're more than

950
00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:27,080
Speaker 1: likely to end up in the Hall of Fame. Seventy

951
00:54:27,120 --> 00:54:30,200
Speaker 1: percent of the time you fail, And there's a lot

952
00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:32,640
Speaker 1: of cases where we need seventy percent of the time.

953
00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:35,920
Speaker 1: Like you get up to bat and you're out. Yeah,

954
00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:38,280
Speaker 1: that's what's funny. When I asked you, like, what happened

955
00:54:38,280 --> 00:54:39,759
Speaker 1: the first time you got out to bat in the

956
00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:43,719
Speaker 1: major leagues? You said, I struck out? Yeah, I struck out.

957
00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:48,480
Speaker 1: Did you strike out swinging? Are looking at it? I

958
00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:51,640
Speaker 1: struck out. I struck out swinging struck out. It was

959
00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:55,319
Speaker 1: against a three time Cy Young winner. So, um, what's that?

960
00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:59,360
Speaker 1: So that's like the m v P for for pictures.

961
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:03,799
Speaker 1: He's a three time uh m v P for uh

962
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:05,879
Speaker 1: for the pitching aspect of the game. So, I mean

963
00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,440
Speaker 1: he's so. The guy's name is Max schers Are. To

964
00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:11,359
Speaker 1: all you listeners, if you're from baseball world, you knew

965
00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:14,239
Speaker 1: exactly who he is. But uh, to the guys that

966
00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:17,000
Speaker 1: or guys and gals out there that aren't familiar with

967
00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:20,239
Speaker 1: the baseball, this guy is Um, this guy is tough.

968
00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:23,279
Speaker 1: I mean, this guy's probably uh probably gonna end up

969
00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:25,520
Speaker 1: being a Cooperstown, which is the Baseball Hall of Fame.

970
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:30,080
Speaker 1: And uh, I respect the hell out of him. And um,

971
00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:32,560
Speaker 1: I mean this guy is just an absolute master of

972
00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:36,400
Speaker 1: of of the art of pitching. Are you looking forward

973
00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:39,680
Speaker 1: to facing him again? Oh? Yeah, I love competing. Have

974
00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:41,719
Speaker 1: you have you gotten a homer off from yet? Not

975
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:44,560
Speaker 1: a homer but I got a couple of hits, got

976
00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:46,799
Speaker 1: a couple of hits, So they put that in your

977
00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:52,920
Speaker 1: pipe and smoke it. I guess so, Uh, we're really

978
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,359
Speaker 1: leave off. I can't remember if I got distracted by

979
00:55:55,719 --> 00:56:00,000
Speaker 1: uh expectations. Oh yeah, was it weird to come out

980
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:03,280
Speaker 1: like make a show where we were to be filmed?

981
00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:05,640
Speaker 1: Are you just so used to be in film though?

982
00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:10,359
Speaker 1: I mean I this year I get. I mean just

983
00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:13,040
Speaker 1: in real like going through like real life. It's like

984
00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:17,600
Speaker 1: I don't realize in being filmed like during uh during

985
00:56:17,640 --> 00:56:19,880
Speaker 1: the game, because I gotta be locked in on on

986
00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:22,759
Speaker 1: what I'm doing. I mean, the cameras are are just

987
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:26,200
Speaker 1: kind of exterior stuff. Um. I mean for me, it's

988
00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:29,480
Speaker 1: like if I'm I'm just gonna be myself because at

989
00:56:29,520 --> 00:56:32,759
Speaker 1: the end of the day, that's um like I take

990
00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:35,640
Speaker 1: pride in knowing who I am. Like, like I told you,

991
00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:38,480
Speaker 1: what did I tell you about knowing something? Oh? Yeah,

992
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:43,719
Speaker 1: I don't want to say it? Is that? Is that too? Uh?

993
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:47,480
Speaker 1: Maybe may be honest it What do you want me

994
00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:51,600
Speaker 1: to say? I don't want to. Well, maybe you weren't there.

995
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:55,400
Speaker 1: I'll tell you that, Okay, if it's not podcast friendly,

996
00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:58,600
Speaker 1: I won't say it. It's a it's a it's an

997
00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:05,200
Speaker 1: expression saying you need to know your your panga. Yeah

998
00:57:05,320 --> 00:57:10,080
Speaker 1: you're penga. Know you're you know what you're working with.

999
00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:14,279
Speaker 1: You know what you're working with, you, what your strengths are,

1000
00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 1: what your limitations are. No, know who you are. That's

1001
00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:20,360
Speaker 1: that's the that's the g rated know who you are,

1002
00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:24,360
Speaker 1: um and for me, doesn't doesn't pack the punch that

1003
00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:28,560
Speaker 1: right now your panga um? And for me, like, I

1004
00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:31,320
Speaker 1: feel like I'm really comfortable with who I am and

1005
00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:35,320
Speaker 1: if someone else wants to have an opinion, then let

1006
00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:40,080
Speaker 1: him have it, you know. And I mean that's whatever,

1007
00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 1: whatever happens and whatever people think of opinions like great,

1008
00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:48,840
Speaker 1: But uh, are you kind of like the added pressures?

1009
00:57:48,880 --> 00:57:51,280
Speaker 1: It's like for me, it's like I try and live

1010
00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:54,920
Speaker 1: in the moment and whatever I can do to accomplish,

1011
00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:57,160
Speaker 1: whether it be like putting a good shot on a

1012
00:57:57,240 --> 00:58:01,480
Speaker 1: deer or hitting a baseball, it's um, it's honestly pretty similar,

1013
00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:05,920
Speaker 1: pretty similar type of type of pressures. What was your

1014
00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:10,240
Speaker 1: favorite thing about what's your favorite thing about? Hunt Milder?

1015
00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:14,360
Speaker 1: I know you like the moments when we were looking

1016
00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:18,320
Speaker 1: at them. Yeah, I mean I just think they're they're

1017
00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:22,520
Speaker 1: just incredible creatures. Also, it's like I think the mesmerizing thing,

1018
00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:24,840
Speaker 1: like they're really cool to look at, but also that

1019
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:27,240
Speaker 1: they could disappear at the blink of an eye, Like

1020
00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:29,280
Speaker 1: if you're glass and you see them and then let's

1021
00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:32,840
Speaker 1: say you like let's say you kind of just move

1022
00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:35,320
Speaker 1: around to adjust or whatever, and then you look back

1023
00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:37,000
Speaker 1: in that same spot, they could be gone and to

1024
00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:41,120
Speaker 1: split second. I mean, these creatures are just um, I mean,

1025
00:58:41,160 --> 00:58:44,160
Speaker 1: I have just this utmost respect for him. I mean

1026
00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:50,720
Speaker 1: they're almost perfect. They're almost perfect this trip, and their

1027
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:55,720
Speaker 1: camouflage really well, they're really just super aware of their environment.

1028
00:58:55,880 --> 00:59:00,360
Speaker 1: And um, I mean there. I mean it's a great challenge.

1029
00:59:00,400 --> 00:59:03,439
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean we hunted really hard these five days.

1030
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:06,000
Speaker 1: Am I right? I would say we did. We had

1031
00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:11,440
Speaker 1: some obstacles, Yeah, I think that. Um Cody bat me

1032
00:59:11,520 --> 00:59:13,920
Speaker 1: up on this. Like it's like like Colorado does like

1033
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:16,280
Speaker 1: the first season so it's week long, then there's some

1034
00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:18,320
Speaker 1: days off, and the second seasons a week long and

1035
00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:21,600
Speaker 1: there's days off, and the third season is and I

1036
00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:24,360
Speaker 1: think you get like a sort of like added up.

1037
00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:28,919
Speaker 1: It's a lot of pressure. You're right, You're exactly right.

1038
00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:32,880
Speaker 1: And things get skittish, and it's compounded, you know, throughout

1039
00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:35,520
Speaker 1: the season until later the season. You're right, and we

1040
00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:37,560
Speaker 1: had the chance we'd come out, and we thought, oh, well,

1041
00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:39,200
Speaker 1: come out and they'll be routting and chase each other

1042
00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:44,480
Speaker 1: around playing grab bass. Not even kind of none of that. Uh.

1043
00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:47,240
Speaker 1: And then two nice the weather, which is wonderful to

1044
00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:50,840
Speaker 1: be out and but just isn't like that's what you're

1045
00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:53,640
Speaker 1: really hoping for, I think in Colorado's third rifle season,

1046
00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:55,840
Speaker 1: because that's why most people don't come and hunt it

1047
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:58,760
Speaker 1: and come in second season instead. It's because they like

1048
00:59:58,880 --> 01:00:01,280
Speaker 1: this weather. They don't want get their teeth by the way.

1049
01:00:01,400 --> 01:00:03,880
Speaker 1: Out of locals at least where when I was living

1050
01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:06,880
Speaker 1: called all the locals all hunted third because they would

1051
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:09,680
Speaker 1: expect the weather to come in and then put the

1052
01:00:09,720 --> 01:00:12,720
Speaker 1: animals out into the open. We did not have that,

1053
01:00:13,320 --> 01:00:15,880
Speaker 1: or a little migration. We had a little pre migration

1054
01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:19,520
Speaker 1: before you guys showed up, but you know, you were

1055
01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:21,160
Speaker 1: still in a lot of deer. There's still a lot

1056
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:25,240
Speaker 1: of deer up high. Yeah. It was tough, man, It

1057
01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:28,640
Speaker 1: was tough, but worst case, worst comes to worst. We

1058
01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:31,040
Speaker 1: we didn't shoot anything and got to watch a beautiful

1059
01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:34,280
Speaker 1: sunset or sunrise? What would you have thought about that

1060
01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:38,000
Speaker 1: if you didn't get one, if I didn't get one. Um,

1061
01:00:38,040 --> 01:00:41,840
Speaker 1: I know hunting, there's no guarantee for success. Um, same

1062
01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:44,000
Speaker 1: thing with baseball. You're not gonna get a hit every time.

1063
01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:48,439
Speaker 1: And I feel like even though like our worlds are

1064
01:00:48,600 --> 01:00:53,680
Speaker 1: so different, but the expectation of success isn't like just

1065
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:56,800
Speaker 1: just had to snap of a finger like that can't

1066
01:00:56,840 --> 01:00:59,000
Speaker 1: be guaranteed. Like, you gotta work, You gotta work for

1067
01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:02,440
Speaker 1: your success. You gotta put yourself, you gotta prepare, you

1068
01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:05,280
Speaker 1: gotta put yourself in the right position to have that

1069
01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:12,200
Speaker 1: great opportunity. Like am I is that? Just like keep

1070
01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:16,360
Speaker 1: keep putting yourself in positions. That's the thing now, And

1071
01:01:16,360 --> 01:01:20,960
Speaker 1: then I'll think about is um at a point just

1072
01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:25,600
Speaker 1: this matter of like staying out, being out, you know,

1073
01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:28,200
Speaker 1: you keep being out Like tonight we sat that same

1074
01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:30,560
Speaker 1: we set, the same metal night that we sat five

1075
01:01:30,680 --> 01:01:33,440
Speaker 1: nights in a row. It's still no buck showed up

1076
01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:35,640
Speaker 1: out there. But I'm thinking, like, how many nights could

1077
01:01:35,640 --> 01:01:37,560
Speaker 1: you actually sit here and not have just like not

1078
01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:41,120
Speaker 1: have one just like a lost one comes through. Yeah,

1079
01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:44,840
Speaker 1: we saw we saw those tonight that we had never

1080
01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:48,360
Speaker 1: seen the whole time we sat there, and then night

1081
01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:52,040
Speaker 1: before tonight last night we saw, didn't you see a

1082
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:55,720
Speaker 1: couple of days last night one one. It's not like

1083
01:01:55,760 --> 01:01:58,840
Speaker 1: they weren't dear there. It's just that opportunity that, like you,

1084
01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:02,680
Speaker 1: we put ourselves in position. It's just that nature just didn't.

1085
01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:05,120
Speaker 1: That wasn't in the cards. But you know, it's funny

1086
01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:07,000
Speaker 1: as we went up because when I was down here

1087
01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:11,840
Speaker 1: doing the TRCP fundraiser during second season, Brody comes on

1088
01:02:11,880 --> 01:02:14,680
Speaker 1: the show, a lot was down and he went up

1089
01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:19,920
Speaker 1: and scouted that area in all kinds of bucks, and

1090
01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:25,720
Speaker 1: then Matt Cook looked at it, all kinds of bucks.

1091
01:02:26,280 --> 01:02:27,959
Speaker 1: We go up there the first night, we go there

1092
01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:31,680
Speaker 1: and here's four bucks. And I kind of thought him

1093
01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:33,520
Speaker 1: as I thought him was like money in the bank.

1094
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:37,960
Speaker 1: I wasn't even kind of thinking about going. I wasn't like,

1095
01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:40,280
Speaker 1: is that why we didn't go after Sapphire that first night?

1096
01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:42,360
Speaker 1: Well it wasn't that. It was that, you know, if

1097
01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:45,400
Speaker 1: it had come in range, absolutely, but I was like,

1098
01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:47,720
Speaker 1: no sense in spooking it, no sense in doing a

1099
01:02:47,800 --> 01:02:54,160
Speaker 1: hasty stock. We'll set up better tomorrow and get them

1100
01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:57,439
Speaker 1: and not spook them not knowing that we would never

1101
01:02:57,520 --> 01:03:01,720
Speaker 1: lay eyes on that thing. Again, very true, but that's

1102
01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:04,480
Speaker 1: the that's the thing though, I mean, same same thing

1103
01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:07,880
Speaker 1: with baseball. You could get an absolute meatball right down

1104
01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:10,440
Speaker 1: the middle and not see and expect to see it

1105
01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:13,080
Speaker 1: later on and that at that or expected to see

1106
01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:15,800
Speaker 1: later on the game. But if the picture doesn't give

1107
01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:18,800
Speaker 1: it to you, it's I mean, then you're sl And

1108
01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:21,680
Speaker 1: I mean it's kind of the same thing for us.

1109
01:03:21,760 --> 01:03:24,600
Speaker 1: It's like we thought we were gonna see at least

1110
01:03:24,720 --> 01:03:27,040
Speaker 1: one for the for the remainder of the trip. But

1111
01:03:27,560 --> 01:03:31,240
Speaker 1: I mean it's not like we didn't work hard for it,

1112
01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:37,919
Speaker 1: you know, No, five days, haunted every morning, early every

1113
01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:41,479
Speaker 1: night till the end, um and then had that one

1114
01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:48,000
Speaker 1: not quite opportunity and then scratch it out and got opportunity. Yeah,

1115
01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:50,600
Speaker 1: how did you feel that happen? Like, how did you feel?

1116
01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:52,360
Speaker 1: Like all of a sudden, like we're me going like,

1117
01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:54,400
Speaker 1: oh my god, get up, get up, get up, got hup?

1118
01:03:55,320 --> 01:04:01,760
Speaker 1: What's wrong? Well, you didn't care, that's the problem. Yeah,

1119
01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:06,880
Speaker 1: that's the problem. Um, what's the problem. Yeah, so you

1120
01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:11,600
Speaker 1: didn't crumple under then you weren't even influenced by my pressure. No,

1121
01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:14,320
Speaker 1: he had that good saying earlier. Was it the Navy,

1122
01:04:14,360 --> 01:04:16,680
Speaker 1: he said, of the Marines that have that saying, yeah,

1123
01:04:16,720 --> 01:04:19,560
Speaker 1: it's in the um in the military. It's like slow

1124
01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:24,600
Speaker 1: slow as smooth and smooth it's fast. And that's that's

1125
01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:27,880
Speaker 1: kind of my um my method to hitting and my

1126
01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:30,720
Speaker 1: approach to to the game of baseball, whether it be

1127
01:04:30,800 --> 01:04:34,600
Speaker 1: offensively or defensively, because you have to be under under

1128
01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:40,200
Speaker 1: control of the situation in order to capitalize. And I

1129
01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:44,840
Speaker 1: I mean, thank you Seth for spotting it first of all, um,

1130
01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:48,640
Speaker 1: and I'll spot bucks for you any day, Pete. And

1131
01:04:48,680 --> 01:04:51,360
Speaker 1: then uh, Steve is like helping me direct kind of

1132
01:04:51,400 --> 01:04:53,680
Speaker 1: where to where to aim on the scope and and

1133
01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:58,360
Speaker 1: where to to Um was it the magnification and stuff

1134
01:04:58,440 --> 01:05:00,960
Speaker 1: like that. I Mean, this wasn't just like yes, I

1135
01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:03,400
Speaker 1: shot it, but this was like like a team effort.

1136
01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:07,080
Speaker 1: There was a lot of different people involved in in

1137
01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:12,520
Speaker 1: the in in that success. Um. Yeah, we got up there,

1138
01:05:12,640 --> 01:05:14,080
Speaker 1: we had a little bit. It was like we got

1139
01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:16,480
Speaker 1: up that morning, we got befour. Yeah, we got up

1140
01:05:16,480 --> 01:05:19,000
Speaker 1: a little early, and I had a pop tart. You

1141
01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:21,320
Speaker 1: had a pop tart And I keep blaming my pop tart,

1142
01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:23,360
Speaker 1: but I had a pop tart for breakfast in a

1143
01:05:23,440 --> 01:05:26,440
Speaker 1: coffee Did you put too much or did you putting

1144
01:05:26,480 --> 01:05:28,360
Speaker 1: on enough cream in your coffee? So you had too

1145
01:05:28,440 --> 01:05:31,320
Speaker 1: much caffeine and too much man, Like, I'm pretty I'm

1146
01:05:31,360 --> 01:05:35,000
Speaker 1: not like a fragile person. You were that more. I know.

1147
01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:37,200
Speaker 1: We had a little hike. We had got a four,

1148
01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:39,280
Speaker 1: had a pop tart, had a little hike and we

1149
01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:41,080
Speaker 1: got into where we wanted to be and I was

1150
01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:44,040
Speaker 1: shaking so bad I couldn't hold my binoculars up. So

1151
01:05:44,120 --> 01:05:46,080
Speaker 1: I had to take a time out and lay on

1152
01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:49,760
Speaker 1: the ground and told Seth was there to film. I

1153
01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:51,320
Speaker 1: was like, you gotta come up in glass, man, I

1154
01:05:51,320 --> 01:05:55,240
Speaker 1: can't even and I laid down. I offered you the

1155
01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:59,760
Speaker 1: chair and on my back laid down. Rick got me

1156
01:05:59,760 --> 01:06:01,960
Speaker 1: a little water, It got me a little energy bar.

1157
01:06:03,440 --> 01:06:07,480
Speaker 1: Eventually got back to my feet, and uh, you could

1158
01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:12,120
Speaker 1: tell I was still incapacitated because I was like, uh yeah,

1159
01:06:12,120 --> 01:06:14,720
Speaker 1: I thought I was gonna put I was still incapacitated

1160
01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:17,400
Speaker 1: because I was up full on, feeling like I was

1161
01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:19,760
Speaker 1: glass and sets back Meth was camera and I'll say

1162
01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:26,440
Speaker 1: it's like buck buck yeah, um like blow us yeah.

1163
01:06:26,600 --> 01:06:28,920
Speaker 1: I like when I'm looking you're just like looking in

1164
01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:31,120
Speaker 1: the in that little patch right there, I'm like where

1165
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:34,160
Speaker 1: And I didn't realize that it was like that far down.

1166
01:06:34,240 --> 01:06:36,960
Speaker 1: It was perfect spot. Yeah, Like I thought it was

1167
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:39,360
Speaker 1: maybe a little bit further out, but it was legitimate.

1168
01:06:40,040 --> 01:06:43,080
Speaker 1: Why isn't it when we arranged it? Yeah? H yeah,

1169
01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:47,720
Speaker 1: hunting firty horizontal. I mean it was right there. Um

1170
01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:52,320
Speaker 1: jumped on him, hunting for the r jump. Maybe if

1171
01:06:52,360 --> 01:06:54,440
Speaker 1: I had one of those like flying squirrel suits or

1172
01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:56,920
Speaker 1: whatever to fly down the hillside. And man, he was.

1173
01:06:57,040 --> 01:06:58,880
Speaker 1: That's why I like mule to your man is like,

1174
01:07:00,280 --> 01:07:02,520
Speaker 1: you know, no hang out in people's yards like anything, right,

1175
01:07:02,880 --> 01:07:05,360
Speaker 1: but now and then when you see a meal or

1176
01:07:05,440 --> 01:07:08,760
Speaker 1: just like lurking through the you know what I mean,

1177
01:07:08,920 --> 01:07:11,520
Speaker 1: timber buck, they just got like a like a lurky

1178
01:07:11,640 --> 01:07:16,080
Speaker 1: kind of almost a haunted kind of thing they do

1179
01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:18,120
Speaker 1: now and then man, it's almost kind of like a

1180
01:07:18,360 --> 01:07:22,520
Speaker 1: like a swagger. It's like, uh, it's like they like

1181
01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:24,800
Speaker 1: they're strutting their stuff, but then they know they can

1182
01:07:24,840 --> 01:07:28,320
Speaker 1: disappear at any second. And him coming down that trail

1183
01:07:29,520 --> 01:07:32,640
Speaker 1: aspens on either side all that brush and that little

1184
01:07:32,680 --> 01:07:36,760
Speaker 1: fern trail he's coming down. That was perfect window because

1185
01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:38,320
Speaker 1: like I was gonna kick you in the side of

1186
01:07:38,320 --> 01:07:41,160
Speaker 1: the head if you didn't shoot. I was like as

1187
01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:45,240
Speaker 1: I was, I was, I was planning on shooting, but

1188
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:48,360
Speaker 1: I wanted to be precise. I didn't I didn't want

1189
01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:50,240
Speaker 1: to harm the animal in any way. I wanted to

1190
01:07:50,280 --> 01:07:54,280
Speaker 1: make it as clean as cleaning, humane as possible. And

1191
01:07:54,400 --> 01:07:55,760
Speaker 1: you know, I was thinking about giving you kind of

1192
01:07:55,800 --> 01:07:58,200
Speaker 1: an elaborate description of where I wanted you to hit it,

1193
01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:03,360
Speaker 1: but like like aim for the but that was just

1194
01:08:03,400 --> 01:08:07,400
Speaker 1: like French older, funch older, and Pete shot the heart

1195
01:08:07,400 --> 01:08:10,400
Speaker 1: out of it. Yeah, I told myself I was gonna

1196
01:08:10,640 --> 01:08:13,600
Speaker 1: I'm aiming for the heart. I'm not hitting anything else

1197
01:08:13,640 --> 01:08:17,320
Speaker 1: but the heart. Um. I mean to me, I think

1198
01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:20,720
Speaker 1: that's probably the quickest and concise way to do it.

1199
01:08:20,840 --> 01:08:24,920
Speaker 1: And I wouldn't accept anything else. I had a nice slow,

1200
01:08:25,479 --> 01:08:29,760
Speaker 1: uh slow, controlled trigger press and when I let the

1201
01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:31,639
Speaker 1: I let the gun do its thing. I didn't try

1202
01:08:31,640 --> 01:08:34,760
Speaker 1: and stop it from rick coil And I think the

1203
01:08:34,800 --> 01:08:39,040
Speaker 1: scope may hit me in the mouth, um something. But

1204
01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:42,960
Speaker 1: you looked like a vampire a little bit. That's fine. Um.

1205
01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:45,960
Speaker 1: I know when I because I know when I'm when

1206
01:08:45,960 --> 01:08:49,320
Speaker 1: I relaxed my body, it's like my body was almost

1207
01:08:49,360 --> 01:08:51,840
Speaker 1: limp uh and I let the gun do its thing.

1208
01:08:52,720 --> 01:08:54,840
Speaker 1: That's when I knew I I stuck it really well.

1209
01:08:55,400 --> 01:08:57,120
Speaker 1: That's that's when I knew why. I put put the

01:10:47,680 --> 01:10:51,559
Speaker 1: good grind burger. To do that, you need to cut

1241

Speaker 1: it with pork fat or beef tabo, um, beef suet

1242

Speaker 1: and sorry not Yeah, so like beefs why do they

1243
01:10:58,800 --> 01:11:00,240

1244
01:11:00,280 --> 01:11:03,640
Speaker 1: pork suit, do they? I don't think so. Yeah, so

Speaker 1: a discounted hog. Yeah, fourth like a four hundred pound

1250
01:11:26,040 --> 01:11:28,719
Speaker 1: pig for twenty seven dollars. He was five d plus

1251
01:11:29,120 --> 01:11:32,400
Speaker 1: when we first picked him up for a closure pig, right,

1252
01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:36,040
Speaker 1: big old fella. Why did the guy want to sell

1253
01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:38,200
Speaker 1: pick for twenty seven bucks? Why he just slaughter it?

1254
01:11:38,880 --> 01:11:40,960
Speaker 1: I don't know what the situation was. He come out

1262
01:12:08,320 --> 01:12:10,040
Speaker 1: and I thought, I keep telling everybody this, but it's funny.

1263
01:12:10,040 --> 01:12:13,720
Speaker 1: I thought it was a dead black angus and I

Speaker 1: And I went up and got pretty close to it

1266
01:12:17,760 --> 01:12:21,200
Speaker 1: before the pig finally woke up and turned a little. Yeah,

1267
01:12:21,360 --> 01:12:23,960
Speaker 1: scared the ship out of me. And you're like, oh, yeah,

Speaker 1: But we uh this morning because you've been meaning up

1270
01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:34,599

1271
01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:37,559
Speaker 1: to lose weight. You're I ambodying for the intentions of

01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:57,519
Speaker 1: we helped slaughter the pig um and cut some of

1277
01:12:57,560 --> 01:13:00,920
Speaker 1: the back fat off it. And I was a little

1278
01:13:00,960 --> 01:13:03,720
Speaker 1: worried about the fat. I don't know why, because I

1279
01:13:03,720 --> 01:13:06,439
Speaker 1: just doesn't know what that thing has been getting into, right,

1280
01:13:06,640 --> 01:13:10,080
Speaker 1: you know, I can situation, but yeah, it's super clear.

1281
01:13:10,080 --> 01:13:12,080
Speaker 1: We've been dealing with pigs and blanche lately too and

1282
01:13:12,160 --> 01:13:16,160
Speaker 1: having this this question arise, you know often about what

1283
01:13:16,200 --> 01:13:18,160
Speaker 1: pigs have been getting into and we're gonna eat him.

1284
01:13:18,400 --> 01:13:22,200
Speaker 1: Yeah because me and Yeah, we just bought a pig ourselves,

1285
01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:23,880
Speaker 1: but it was dead. We bought a butcher pig from

1286
01:13:23,920 --> 01:13:25,479
Speaker 1: a guy that a friend of ours. The guy we

1287
01:13:25,600 --> 01:13:28,679
Speaker 1: worked with, Kevin Harlander, who's been on the show. Um,

1288
01:13:28,760 --> 01:13:31,280
Speaker 1: he raised some pigs and we bought a pig from him.

1289
01:13:31,400 --> 01:13:34,600
Speaker 1: He was feeding the pigs. I don't know if it

1290
01:13:34,680 --> 01:13:42,080
Speaker 1: was solely but barley mash right, what's left? Hm? And

1291
01:13:42,120 --> 01:13:44,280
Speaker 1: so we got that pig now. But then we went

1292
01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:47,760
Speaker 1: to your pig and took some of the back fat off,

1293
01:13:48,240 --> 01:13:50,360
Speaker 1: and then got back here, and I don't and I

1294
01:13:50,400 --> 01:13:52,360
Speaker 1: was nervous about the fat wouldn't be good because I

1295
01:13:52,400 --> 01:13:56,200
Speaker 1: know the pigs like old. Yeah, he was older, losing weight,

1296
01:13:56,560 --> 01:13:59,479
Speaker 1: still had one of his nuts kind of kind of.

1297
01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:05,479
Speaker 1: So we took a thin slice of that back fat.

1298
01:14:06,880 --> 01:14:09,160
Speaker 1: The back fat comes off like what half inch thick county,

1299
01:14:10,360 --> 01:14:15,200
Speaker 1: that's say an inch probably an inch. Those pieces we

1300
01:14:15,240 --> 01:14:17,040
Speaker 1: had were not an inch thick. We'll let you cook

1301
01:14:17,080 --> 01:14:21,879
Speaker 1: him down. Oh, just let's go three quarters, let's meet halfway.

1302
01:14:22,280 --> 01:14:24,560
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm not gonna meet halfway to wrongness.

1303
01:14:28,040 --> 01:14:33,000
Speaker 1: They're not an inch thick. That's an inch. Five eights

1304
01:14:36,280 --> 01:14:40,599
Speaker 1: comes off and five and we caught them into like

1305
01:14:41,160 --> 01:14:43,080
Speaker 1: we could all the back fat and like these sort

1306
01:14:43,120 --> 01:14:45,960
Speaker 1: of like six by six or seven by seven squares

1307
01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:51,080
Speaker 1: of five h inch thick back fat and put in

1308
01:14:51,080 --> 01:14:54,679
Speaker 1: the freezer so it'll start to set up nice, real

1309
01:14:54,760 --> 01:14:58,160
Speaker 1: clean white fat. Boned out the deer leg and cube

1310
01:14:58,200 --> 01:15:03,439
Speaker 1: that in one inch cubes. Put the squares of fat

1311
01:15:03,560 --> 01:15:06,080
Speaker 1: from the from beans the pig that was his name

1312
01:15:06,960 --> 01:15:11,720
Speaker 1: in the freezer until it got firm, slice it and

1313
01:15:11,800 --> 01:15:15,479
Speaker 1: thin slice, and then put a thin slice in a

1314
01:15:15,600 --> 01:15:20,280
Speaker 1: pan to test it for goodness before we ground up

1315
01:15:20,320 --> 01:15:21,920
Speaker 1: all the deer meat. And would you think of that

1316
01:15:21,960 --> 01:15:24,680
Speaker 1: pig fat? I think that was the best little pork

1317
01:15:24,720 --> 01:15:28,080
Speaker 1: crackling I've ever had. That was tasty as hell, especially

1318
01:15:28,120 --> 01:15:30,559
Speaker 1: when you put a little salt on it. That was

1319
01:15:30,960 --> 01:15:34,680
Speaker 1: really good pork fat plus plus. And then we ground up.

1320
01:15:34,720 --> 01:15:36,439
Speaker 1: We were gonna do temper same we did, like a

1321
01:15:36,439 --> 01:15:39,960
Speaker 1: healthy grind. I think we didn't do all of it.

1322
01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:41,760
Speaker 1: I think how much do we do? We did like

1323
01:15:41,840 --> 01:15:45,080
Speaker 1: whole like maybe like two like slabs of it. I'd

1324
01:15:45,080 --> 01:15:47,000
Speaker 1: have to guess we did about twenty. So we did

1325
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:49,680
Speaker 1: one whole meal to your shoulder and then cut in.

1326
01:15:51,360 --> 01:15:55,479
Speaker 1: I would say, of that weight and of beans as fat,

1327
01:15:55,680 --> 01:15:59,960
Speaker 1: like a healthy twenty. Yeah. Let me ask you this, Pete.

1328
01:16:00,120 --> 01:16:04,639
Speaker 1: Just give me yes or no answer. The beans go

1329
01:16:04,720 --> 01:16:11,760
Speaker 1: down easy. He died a hero. That's all I'm gonna say. Um,

1330
01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:15,960
Speaker 1: wonderful fat. Then ground off. You know how beans guy's

1331
01:16:16,080 --> 01:16:21,240
Speaker 1: names named Beans? Well, everybody called I named him, but

1332
01:16:21,360 --> 01:16:23,760
Speaker 1: everybody calls her pig bacon. You know, let's go eat

1333
01:16:23,800 --> 01:16:29,120
Speaker 1: some baker or whatever. Hamm, yeah, your nickname him hambone

1334
01:16:29,240 --> 01:16:32,839
Speaker 1: or that's a bacon or chop or pork and beans.

1335
01:16:34,640 --> 01:16:39,919
Speaker 1: I didn't know that was the thing. Yeah. And and Charlotte,

1336
01:16:40,040 --> 01:16:43,000
Speaker 1: oh yeah, we saw a black widow. Charlotte was a

1337
01:16:43,040 --> 01:16:46,880
Speaker 1: spider right, yeah, yeah, black widow in my tent that

1338
01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:51,759
Speaker 1: you guys let live. No, we found a black widow

1339
01:16:51,840 --> 01:16:55,240
Speaker 1: in your camp. Black widow in your camp. Rick argued

1340
01:16:55,320 --> 01:16:57,240
Speaker 1: to leave it there to kill you not very long.

1341
01:16:58,800 --> 01:17:00,840
Speaker 1: You made a quick case of like you're gonna leave

1342
01:17:00,840 --> 01:17:03,360
Speaker 1: that around to fight somebody, and I was like a

1343
01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:09,240
Speaker 1: displaced black widow and cordies camp. Um uh yeah. So

1344
01:17:09,280 --> 01:17:13,519
Speaker 1: we ground it up and man, really good. The burgers

1345
01:17:13,600 --> 01:17:18,879
Speaker 1: made burgers. I mean, that's probably the upper echelon of burgers.

1346
01:17:18,920 --> 01:17:22,600
Speaker 1: If if I said some myself, those those are awesome burgers.

1347
01:17:22,760 --> 01:17:26,400
Speaker 1: And what do you feel you're gonna bring your whole

1348
01:17:26,400 --> 01:17:29,920
Speaker 1: deer home? Yes? Do you feel that you'll eat it

1349
01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:31,840
Speaker 1: like really fast and be done with it. I remember

1350
01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:34,479
Speaker 1: when I went when when we took Joe Rogan uh

1351
01:17:34,760 --> 01:17:38,000
Speaker 1: deer hunt for the first time, he brought his deer home,

1352
01:17:38,080 --> 01:17:41,639
Speaker 1: and man, it feels it's like two or three weeks

1353
01:17:41,720 --> 01:17:45,799
Speaker 1: later he was that a dear me, his deer was gone.

1354
01:17:47,040 --> 01:17:50,680
Speaker 1: He's went home and ate it. Man, do you think

1355
01:17:50,720 --> 01:17:52,360
Speaker 1: you'll milk it out? Or you think you'll just eat it?

1356
01:17:52,880 --> 01:17:55,200
Speaker 1: I don't know. I got I got some really good uh.

1357
01:17:55,320 --> 01:17:57,679
Speaker 1: I got some really close friends that I'm sure would

1358
01:17:57,720 --> 01:18:02,240
Speaker 1: appreciate some of it. Um, I got some family members.

1359
01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:04,800
Speaker 1: I know I'm probably gonna have some backstrap for Thanksgiving.

1360
01:18:06,439 --> 01:18:09,479
Speaker 1: So I don't know. I mean I think that I mean,

1361
01:18:09,479 --> 01:18:12,080
Speaker 1: if we have it, I'd probably rather eat that than

1362
01:18:12,640 --> 01:18:15,240
Speaker 1: go to the grocery store, because, hey, I know where

1363
01:18:15,240 --> 01:18:18,160
Speaker 1: it came from. It's probably it's got packed with way

1364
01:18:18,160 --> 01:18:22,920
Speaker 1: more vitamins and nutrients and uh like a regular regular

1365
01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:27,000
Speaker 1: cow you get from the grocery store super food. Man. Yeah, absolutely,

1366
01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:31,759
Speaker 1: So I think that i'd probably rather cook a steak

1367
01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:36,400
Speaker 1: from the backstrap or um do like an awesome buco

1368
01:18:36,600 --> 01:18:39,400
Speaker 1: than from the deer meat, rather than go to the

1369
01:18:39,439 --> 01:18:41,519
Speaker 1: grocery store. I don't know. If I'm gonna buy red

1370
01:18:41,560 --> 01:18:45,720
Speaker 1: meat and until the deer's gone to that's that's advisable.

1371
01:18:45,760 --> 01:18:49,439
Speaker 1: That's what I would do. Um do you uh you

1372
01:18:49,479 --> 01:18:52,559
Speaker 1: have our our Wild Game cookbook. I do. Yes. Uh.

1373
01:18:52,920 --> 01:18:54,640
Speaker 1: You know what I think you ought to make what

1374
01:18:54,760 --> 01:19:00,160
Speaker 1: for Thanksgiving? Yeah, is make the make the all the

1375
01:19:00,200 --> 01:19:06,280
Speaker 1: flower puree in the backstrap dish. Hell yeah, it's a

1376
01:19:06,320 --> 01:19:11,080
Speaker 1: recipe from our buddy Pooter. Yeah, I mean very very

1377
01:19:11,120 --> 01:19:14,360
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving me perfect because I don't think that I've taught

1378
01:19:14,400 --> 01:19:19,560
Speaker 1: this for I don't think that Um on Thanksgiving. Uh.

1379
01:19:19,760 --> 01:19:23,800
Speaker 1: If you want to have a traditional Thanksgiving, eat dear meat. Absolutely,

1380
01:19:23,880 --> 01:19:28,280
Speaker 1: they know those sons a Bitch and pilgrims eight dear meat.

1381
01:19:28,800 --> 01:19:32,640
Speaker 1: It's it's debated whether or not they ate turkeys. So

1382
01:19:32,720 --> 01:19:35,120
Speaker 1: if you want a real Thanksgiving, have yourself to do.

1383
01:19:35,240 --> 01:19:39,320
Speaker 1: I don't think they had cauliflower puree. They wish they did. Yeah,

1384
01:19:39,439 --> 01:19:42,160
Speaker 1: but I also don't think they had apple pie. They

1385
01:19:42,200 --> 01:19:44,680

1412
01:21:12,120 --> 01:21:14,280
Speaker 1: you could you just it's all about being creative. That's

1413
01:21:14,280 --> 01:21:17,519
Speaker 1: why I like, I mean that cookbook is is helpful

1414
01:21:17,720 --> 01:21:19,400
Speaker 1: in a lot of ways because there's a lot of

1415
01:21:19,439 --> 01:21:23,200
Speaker 1: really creative ways to to dress up whild game as

1416
01:21:23,400 --> 01:21:27,080
Speaker 1: as opposed to just doing the old, old timey, old

1417
01:21:27,080 --> 01:21:31,000
Speaker 1: fashioned recipes. And that's a way to kind of I'm

1418
01:21:31,040 --> 01:21:33,320
Speaker 1: not saying, like kind of put like an elegant twist

1419
01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:37,920
Speaker 1: on something, uh something from the field. And that's why

1420
01:21:37,960 --> 01:21:43,400
Speaker 1: I wanted to get the book, you know, Um yeah

1421

01:22:30,240 --> 01:22:33,200
Speaker 1: negativity is ever helpful, if that makes sense. You know,

1440
01:22:42,960 --> 01:22:45,240

1538
01:28:26,360 --> 01:28:29,360
Speaker 1: um running for president or not not just running for president.

1539
01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:33,400
Speaker 1: I mean that's that's a given, but sacrifice, right, But

1540
01:28:33,479 --> 01:28:36,360
Speaker 1: also it's the kind of the thought of kind of

1541
01:28:36,400 --> 01:28:42,360
Speaker 1: making hunting, of hunting and fishing available to the general public. Um. Yeah,

1542
01:28:42,360 --> 01:28:45,040
Speaker 1: that's our you know, our campaign slogan, Yeah, better hunting

1543
01:28:45,040 --> 01:28:48,600
Speaker 1: and fishing for America because um, in in in the

1544
01:28:48,640 --> 01:28:52,920
Speaker 1: state of Florida, a lot of fisheries available, that's that's

1545
01:28:52,920 --> 01:28:56,360
Speaker 1: not the issue. But the hunting stuff that's really the issue.

1546
01:28:56,439 --> 01:29:00,559
Speaker 1: It's there's not there's pretty much barely any ablic land

1547
01:29:00,600 --> 01:29:03,439
Speaker 1: available to to go hunt. I mean, we hear a

1548
01:29:03,479 --> 01:29:07,320
Speaker 1: lot of complaints from from Floridian hunters. Yea who they

1549
01:29:07,360 --> 01:29:10,040
Speaker 1: have like they live in the fishing paradise. Yeah, I

1550
01:29:10,080 --> 01:29:13,519
Speaker 1: mean I love to fish. Like the complaining about hunting

1551
01:29:13,520 --> 01:29:15,920
Speaker 1: to us a lot. Yeah, I mean I'm a I'm

1552
01:29:15,960 --> 01:29:21,200
Speaker 1: a flat fishing enthusiast. I love trout, redfish, snook. Um.

1553
01:29:21,240 --> 01:29:24,000
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's it's an awesome, awesome type of

1554
01:29:24,040 --> 01:29:27,920
Speaker 1: fishing and big fan, big fan of it, big fan

1555
01:29:28,000 --> 01:29:31,639
Speaker 1: of Florida fishing. Like it's just so diverse. I think

1556
01:29:31,680 --> 01:29:33,880
Speaker 1: that's I think it's some of the best fishing in

1557
01:29:34,080 --> 01:29:38,200
Speaker 1: the entire world. Um. But on the on the flip

1558
01:29:38,240 --> 01:29:43,200
Speaker 1: side of that coin, having readily accessible hunting opportunities just

1559
01:29:44,000 --> 01:29:48,760
Speaker 1: isn't for the isn't for the normal person. Um. And

1560
01:29:48,800 --> 01:29:51,280
Speaker 1: I mean there's just not enough like public land hunt

1561
01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:53,880
Speaker 1: and the public land that is available to hunt, it's

1562
01:29:53,920 --> 01:29:56,920
Speaker 1: crowded as hell. It's crowded as hell. It's almost to

1563
01:29:56,920 --> 01:30:00,960
Speaker 1: the point where it can be unsafe, especially especially during

1564
01:30:00,960 --> 01:30:04,400
Speaker 1: gun season. So, um, the fact that you guys are

1565
01:30:04,439 --> 01:30:08,280
Speaker 1: doing that, um, especially if you're that's gonna that's gonna

1566
01:30:08,280 --> 01:30:12,479
Speaker 1: impact my home state directly. If you guys invest in

1567
01:30:12,520 --> 01:30:15,439
Speaker 1: properties there uh to make available to the public. So

1568
01:30:15,479 --> 01:30:17,920
Speaker 1: I think that'd be outstanding. Well, we'll keep at it.

1569
01:30:18,200 --> 01:30:20,000
Speaker 1: To find out, you have to follow the campaign, go

01:30:46,880 --> 01:30:49,439

Speaker 1: the things ways that which is gonna better hunting and

1629
01:33:47,200 --> 01:33:49,800
Speaker 1: fishing for America. Rick's gonna hate this one, but one

1630
01:33:49,840 --> 01:33:53,720
Speaker 1: of them is gonna be that a National Parks wildlife

1631
01:33:53,720 --> 01:33:57,000
Speaker 1: management is handed over to the state in the state

1632
01:33:58,080 --> 01:34:05,720
Speaker 1: um will in the same spirit regulatory structure in which

1633
01:34:05,760 --> 01:34:09,320
Speaker 1: the surrounding lands are managed for hunting. The national parks

1634
01:34:09,320 --> 01:34:13,160
Speaker 1: will be managed for hunting, and during hunting season, only

1635
01:34:13,200 --> 01:34:16,320
Speaker 1: those license hunters will be allowed in the park. It's

1636
01:34:16,320 --> 01:34:21,680
Speaker 1: gonna be wonderful, very controversial, very controversial position, but it's

1637
01:34:22,360 --> 01:34:26,800
Speaker 1: cut down on revenue for the part unless I'm like

1638
01:34:26,840 --> 01:34:30,320
Speaker 1: Elizabeth Warren Man, I got a plan for that. I'll

1639
01:34:30,320 --> 01:34:35,720
Speaker 1: tell everybody about it later. So, um, so would you

1640
01:34:35,760 --> 01:34:38,720
Speaker 1: put with the person that applying for those tags? Would

1641
01:34:38,720 --> 01:34:40,360
Speaker 1: they have to pay more to hunt in the park.

1642
01:34:40,680 --> 01:34:42,880
Speaker 1: I don't know. Think about doing something called the Yellowstone

1643
01:34:43,000 --> 01:34:46,519
Speaker 1: supertag and it'd be like a handful of people will

1644
01:34:46,600 --> 01:34:51,080
Speaker 1: draw a Yellowstone supertag and the super tag is good

1645
01:34:51,120 --> 01:34:55,000
Speaker 1: for you. It's good for one of everything, and you

1646
01:34:55,040 --> 01:34:59,040
Speaker 1: can you can transfer him to your bodies. So if

1647
01:34:59,040 --> 01:35:04,400
Speaker 1: you do the yellosone super tag, it's like bison, elk, sheep,

1648
01:35:05,600 --> 01:35:09,360
Speaker 1: black bear backlog of maintenance if you could help close

1649
01:35:09,439 --> 01:35:13,400
Speaker 1: that budget gap. No, hell, this is all gonna make sense.

1650
01:35:13,439 --> 01:35:17,040
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a wonderful country. Um, it's gonna be one.

1651
01:35:17,040 --> 01:35:18,720
Speaker 1: It's gonna be the saying's gonna be so much better.

1652
01:35:18,720 --> 01:35:24,040
Speaker 1: Pebble Mine is done dead. Michigan is getting a dove season.

1653
01:35:24,320 --> 01:35:26,800
Speaker 1: We're gonna be hunting the national parks. It's gonna be

1654
01:35:26,880 --> 01:35:31,200
Speaker 1: a win for hunters and hunt on Sundays. Hunt. Pennsylvanians

1655
01:35:31,200 --> 01:35:34,520
Speaker 1: will be hunting on Sundays. That's a rule in Pennsylvania.

1656
01:35:35,080 --> 01:35:38,360
Speaker 1: There's they're fighting. The first thing that's gonna happen. The

1657
01:35:38,360 --> 01:35:40,559
Speaker 1: first thing we're gonna sign in the law, you know, Yanni,

1658
01:35:40,640 --> 01:35:43,000
Speaker 1: is we're gonna sign in the law making it illegal,

1659
01:35:44,320 --> 01:35:49,800
Speaker 1: um illegal to prohibit Sunday hunting. And it's if you

1660
01:35:50,000 --> 01:35:57,080
Speaker 1: discard a wild turkey's thighs. It's a capital, a federal capital.

1661
01:35:57,240 --> 01:36:00,639
Speaker 1: It's a death penalty offense to a scarred a wild

1662
01:36:00,680 --> 01:36:03,160
Speaker 1: turkey sighs. We're gonna be a fishing too. We're not

1663
01:36:03,160 --> 01:36:05,720
Speaker 1: gonna even have to run for a second term. We're

1664
01:36:05,720 --> 01:36:09,560
Speaker 1: gonna get it all done in four done. Yeah, be

1665
01:36:09,680 --> 01:36:15,519
Speaker 1: back to enjoying the fronts of our labor. So you're

1666
01:36:15,560 --> 01:36:18,800
Speaker 1: telling me people get rid of the five meat, not

1667
01:36:19,200 --> 01:36:22,960
Speaker 1: after four years of being having them whittled away. It

1668
01:36:23,120 --> 01:36:26,560
Speaker 1: just bogged. Oh yeah, No, they'll tay the time in

1669
01:36:26,600 --> 01:36:28,920
Speaker 1: a way. But we're gonna have black, black booted thugs

1670
01:36:28,920 --> 01:36:31,840
Speaker 1: that kick your door down the hall. Y off. If

1671
01:36:31,880 --> 01:36:35,679
Speaker 1: you throw out your thigh meat and um yeah, and war,

1672
01:36:36,400 --> 01:36:41,559
Speaker 1: we're gonna give it like full wilderness protection. I like it.

1673
01:36:41,560 --> 01:36:45,640
Speaker 1: You're coming across all the boundaries. It's the country is

1674
01:36:45,720 --> 01:36:52,320
Speaker 1: gonna be ready for the craziest moderate ever, the most

1675
01:36:52,360 --> 01:36:55,320
Speaker 1: extreme moderates. So get your get your if you stand

1676
01:36:55,360 --> 01:36:58,200
Speaker 1: in the most liberal conservatives, if you stand for hunting

1677
01:36:58,280 --> 01:37:02,320
Speaker 1: fish and get your bump stickers. Now, Um, this was

1678
01:37:02,400 --> 01:37:07,080
Speaker 1: probably I was the worst deer hunter I've ever been

1679
01:37:07,360 --> 01:37:11,680
Speaker 1: this week. You didn't scout up a single thing. I

1680
01:37:11,760 --> 01:37:13,719
Speaker 1: found some deer. Matt and I took a little trip

1681
01:37:13,800 --> 01:37:18,320
Speaker 1: down south where the deer were possibly migrating to. We

1682
01:37:18,320 --> 01:37:22,479
Speaker 1: found some deer. Um did he say they were elk? No,

1683
01:37:23,960 --> 01:37:26,240
Speaker 1: he didn't know. He thought he saw some milk. We

1684
01:37:26,280 --> 01:37:30,000
Speaker 1: didn't see any elk, but we saw something. We found

1685
01:37:30,040 --> 01:37:32,760
Speaker 1: some deer. Uh. And we could have possibly gone and

1686
01:37:32,840 --> 01:37:35,120
Speaker 1: hunted there and it could have panned out for us,

1687
01:37:35,160 --> 01:37:39,639
Speaker 1: you know, if we needed to. But uh yeah, um,

1688
01:37:39,680 --> 01:37:42,000
Speaker 1: it was rough, rough hunting for me this week. Then

1689
01:37:42,000 --> 01:37:46,000
Speaker 1: you went back in the morning that place had gotten Colorado. Yeah, yeah,

1690
01:37:46,200 --> 01:37:50,000
Speaker 1: for sure, for sure. I thought I knew, but I

1691
01:37:50,080 --> 01:37:51,960
Speaker 1: knew in the back of my head. I'm like, there

1692
01:37:52,000 --> 01:37:56,360
Speaker 1: ain't no way that this little sneaky spot, you know. Yeah,

1693
01:37:56,520 --> 01:37:58,160
Speaker 1: And so I went there in the morning. I was

1694
01:37:58,280 --> 01:38:04,600
Speaker 1: the sixth chuck to pull. Uh yeah. So no, I

1695
01:38:04,640 --> 01:38:06,599
Speaker 1: don't I don't have anything great to give you. As

1696
01:38:06,600 --> 01:38:09,120
Speaker 1: a final father than I was just a sad and

1697
01:38:09,160 --> 01:38:11,400
Speaker 1: mean I'm like, I'm like itching, I need to go home,

1698
01:38:11,479 --> 01:38:13,679
Speaker 1: and I'm trying to right now playing my week out

1699
01:38:13,720 --> 01:38:16,479
Speaker 1: to figure out when's the first day I can play

1700
01:38:16,520 --> 01:38:19,760
Speaker 1: hooky and go hunting and try to get my mojo back.

1701
01:38:20,160 --> 01:38:24,799
Speaker 1: Over the weekend. We're gonna um uh me and my kids.

1702
01:38:24,880 --> 01:38:26,439
Speaker 1: I don't want to say me my kids are taking

1703
01:38:26,479 --> 01:38:32,200
Speaker 1: Tracy deer hunting. Oh that's cool, but I'm taking Tracy

1704
01:38:32,240 --> 01:38:34,280
Speaker 1: deer hunting and my kids are coming along to confuse

1705
01:38:34,320 --> 01:38:38,040
Speaker 1: the matter. Wow, just you, you're gonna be the only

1706
01:38:38,040 --> 01:38:41,679
Speaker 1: other adult and Tracy and three kids and my wife's

1707
01:38:41,680 --> 01:38:47,679
Speaker 1: out of town. That's gonna be a lot on your place. Seth.

1708
01:38:47,720 --> 01:38:51,320
Speaker 1: You should go and be helped. No, you help Tracy

1709
01:38:51,320 --> 01:38:55,840
Speaker 1: out and I'll yell at my kids. Yeah. Um. Any

1710
01:38:55,880 --> 01:39:02,240
Speaker 1: final thoughts. I think my thought is the deer and

1711
01:39:02,280 --> 01:39:06,040
Speaker 1: elk seasons are going to get progressively better throughout the years,

1712
01:39:06,400 --> 01:39:09,760
Speaker 1: if the structure has changed. They're talking about changing the

1713
01:39:09,800 --> 01:39:13,400
Speaker 1: season structures in Colorado. A lot of pressure, like we

1714
01:39:13,400 --> 01:39:16,080
Speaker 1: talked earlier on me to make it that everything isn't

1715
01:39:16,120 --> 01:39:18,800
Speaker 1: over the counter, right, that's gonna it has to happen,

1716
01:39:19,240 --> 01:39:21,840
Speaker 1: it does. It has to happen. That's my thought. It's

1717
01:39:21,880 --> 01:39:26,639
Speaker 1: not it's not sustainable. Mhm. It's gonna be unpopular, but

1718
01:39:26,960 --> 01:39:30,200
Speaker 1: its just and after seeing what you guys want through this,

1719
01:39:30,439 --> 01:39:32,719
Speaker 1: you know this hunt because it was kind of tough

1720
01:39:33,400 --> 01:39:38,120
Speaker 1: with the pressure and the outside pressure and whatever from

1721
01:39:38,520 --> 01:39:41,960
Speaker 1: even if you don't yeah, even there's just the cut

1722
01:39:41,960 --> 01:39:46,360
Speaker 1: off there, there's gonna have to be. Something's gotta something,

1723
01:39:46,800 --> 01:39:49,320
Speaker 1: something's gonna give, something's gonna give. They don't want to

1724
01:39:49,320 --> 01:39:55,479
Speaker 1: destroy the reputation that they've built. Uh rick Uh. What

1725
01:39:55,800 --> 01:39:59,040
Speaker 1: I enjoyed the fact that you guys have such an

1726
01:39:59,080 --> 01:40:02,839
Speaker 1: amazing like ability to navigate the vernacular of like hunting.

1727
01:40:03,479 --> 01:40:05,599
Speaker 1: Like when you're talking hunting with it doesn't matter if

1728
01:40:05,600 --> 01:40:08,840
Speaker 1: it's like sports like fisherman from Florida or like duck

1729
01:40:08,920 --> 01:40:12,960
Speaker 1: hunting or all these different forms of hunting and fishing,

1730
01:40:13,080 --> 01:40:15,680
Speaker 1: you're like, no, the lingo and you never know what

1731
01:40:15,720 --> 01:40:17,840
Speaker 1: we're talking about, and I sort of him yeah, like

1732
01:40:17,880 --> 01:40:20,400
Speaker 1: I'm like barely hanging on or all. Or I'll try

1733
01:40:20,439 --> 01:40:24,000
Speaker 1: to ask a question, I'll like, like the thought behind

1734
01:40:24,000 --> 01:40:26,200
Speaker 1: the question is right, but I like, don't use any

1735
01:40:26,200 --> 01:40:28,320
Speaker 1: of the right words or whatnot. So I got to

1736
01:40:28,360 --> 01:40:30,880
Speaker 1: witness you do that with sports, with baseball, and it

1737
01:40:30,960 --> 01:40:35,679
Speaker 1: was just fantastic to ask questions that were good questions

1738
01:40:35,760 --> 01:40:38,200
Speaker 1: but using not know how to ask, yeah, not not

1739
01:40:38,320 --> 01:40:41,320
Speaker 1: even know the words to ask the question. And I

1740
01:40:41,400 --> 01:40:44,200
Speaker 1: just I just I just kind of enjoyed watching that.

1741
01:40:44,360 --> 01:40:47,720
Speaker 1: Who knew that there were two leagues in Major League Baseball, right,

1742
01:40:49,479 --> 01:40:54,320
Speaker 1: like and L and A let that National League and

1743
01:40:54,320 --> 01:40:57,080
Speaker 1: and they got different rules. Yeah, yeah, so all that

1744
01:40:57,120 --> 01:41:00,240
Speaker 1: stuff Like I I mean, you know, I play Little

1745
01:41:00,320 --> 01:41:02,639
Speaker 1: league and learned about all that stuff and watch baseball.

1746
01:41:02,880 --> 01:41:05,639
Speaker 1: I like it. Man, I'm like, not only this listen,

1747
01:41:05,720 --> 01:41:08,559
Speaker 1: I'm like a big time Mets fan now, man, yeah,

1748
01:41:08,800 --> 01:41:10,479
Speaker 1: I mean you should be. I'm gonna have my face

1749
01:41:10,560 --> 01:41:16,000
Speaker 1: painted and ship now and I'm at yeah, to be

1750
01:41:16,040 --> 01:41:18,559
Speaker 1: able to pick the brain of somebody that's in the

1751
01:41:18,880 --> 01:41:22,439
Speaker 1: in the big league, big leagues and watching YouTube videos

1752
01:41:22,439 --> 01:41:28,280
Speaker 1: and hitting homers, I mean it is it is like unreal.

1753
01:41:28,600 --> 01:41:30,720
Speaker 1: So yeah, it was. It was cool being able to

1754
01:41:30,720 --> 01:41:32,600
Speaker 1: he looks so much older and different when you're up

1755
01:41:32,600 --> 01:41:35,639
Speaker 1: there hitting them homers because I know what I'm doing.

1756
01:41:37,800 --> 01:41:40,479
Speaker 1: Oh and yeah, and the other thing is is Steve's

1757
01:41:40,479 --> 01:41:43,799
Speaker 1: ability to kind of in those moments of high pressure.

1758
01:41:43,920 --> 01:41:46,680
Speaker 1: You know, he's mentoring. You know, I've I've watched him

1759
01:41:46,880 --> 01:41:50,599
Speaker 1: interact with many many a hunter mentoring. You know, Buck

1760
01:41:50,640 --> 01:41:53,439
Speaker 1: shows up and he gets home using that word. Yeah,

1761
01:41:53,520 --> 01:41:55,599
Speaker 1: it is a it's a mental relationship, and you're really

1762
01:41:55,600 --> 01:41:58,160
Speaker 1: good at it. But in that moment of like I've

1763
01:41:58,200 --> 01:42:01,120
Speaker 1: heard that I'm not well, I feel differently. But in

1764
01:42:01,160 --> 01:42:04,120
Speaker 1: that moment, in that moment of like it's go time,

1765
01:42:04,960 --> 01:42:09,160
Speaker 1: your level of patience, uh, like you're projecting your own

1766
01:42:09,240 --> 01:42:11,360
Speaker 1: like I'm doing this now, and it just you know,

1767
01:42:11,400 --> 01:42:14,000
Speaker 1: it takes somebody that's not used to doing it as

1768
01:42:14,080 --> 01:42:16,400
Speaker 1: much a little time to get comfortable or whatever. But

1769
01:42:16,479 --> 01:42:22,120
Speaker 1: Pete stayed true to his own Yeah and yeah, my process,

1770
01:42:22,439 --> 01:42:25,320
Speaker 1: and so I would always call him, uh resistant to

1771
01:42:25,320 --> 01:42:29,840
Speaker 1: my mentoring and that he was resistant to the frenetic

1772
01:42:29,920 --> 01:42:35,080
Speaker 1: nature of your mentoring uh strategy there, but he stayed

1773
01:42:35,080 --> 01:42:38,320
Speaker 1: calm and like, I mean, that moment is intense, right,

1774
01:42:38,360 --> 01:42:43,479
Speaker 1: like there's like two to three second window that you

1775
01:42:43,560 --> 01:42:46,640
Speaker 1: gotta make the shot. And uh and with somebody like

1776
01:42:46,720 --> 01:42:48,960
Speaker 1: barking in your ear, like go go, go, go go.

1777
01:42:49,280 --> 01:42:53,640
Speaker 1: It is not a whisper. Yeah, it wasn't a whisper.

1778
01:42:55,920 --> 01:42:59,000
Speaker 1: And he got it done. It was, it was. It

1779
01:42:59,040 --> 01:43:04,559
Speaker 1: was a pretty fantastic moments. So seth. Yeah, man, I'm

01:43:58,720 --> 01:44:03,599
Speaker 1: I mean everyone has just I mean, Cody, I've never

1796

1797
01:44:07,240 --> 01:44:11,360
Speaker 1: a whole different world. The hunting that was, that's just nuts.

1798

01:44:17,520 --> 01:44:22,160
Speaker 1: are just multitalented and uh, I mean to be able

1801
01:44:22,160 --> 01:44:25,400
Speaker 1: to manage that and I mean that's that sounds like

1802
01:44:25,439 --> 01:44:28,759
Speaker 1: an absolute rodeo. It's a cool feeling for sure. Yeah,

1803
01:44:28,840 --> 01:44:33,280
Speaker 1: that's that's nuts. Um, I mean hell, I mean what

1804
01:44:33,360 --> 01:44:35,519
Speaker 1: you do like on that ranch. I mean I just

1805
01:44:35,600 --> 01:44:38,680
Speaker 1: kind of saw like this small little sample size of it.

1806
01:44:38,760 --> 01:44:41,040
Speaker 1: But damn man, you're a fucking jack of all trades

1807
01:44:41,720 --> 01:44:44,520
Speaker 1: and that's that's awesome to see, like a true outdoorsman.

1808
01:44:44,640 --> 01:44:50,760
Speaker 1: True uh, just true cowboy like it's in southern Colorado.

1809
01:44:50,840 --> 01:44:53,639
Speaker 1: That's that's it, man. I mean I feel like you're

1810
01:44:53,840 --> 01:44:58,840
Speaker 1: part of a dying breed. I mean, honest, just you Like,

1811
01:44:58,960 --> 01:45:02,040
Speaker 1: I'm not a cowboy, you're not a cowboy, but you're

1812
01:45:02,040 --> 01:45:05,920
Speaker 1: an X fishing guide Like you're there when I don't

1813
01:45:05,960 --> 01:45:09,120
Speaker 1: think we mentioned that, um that we went fly fishing

1814
01:45:09,160 --> 01:45:13,400
Speaker 1: for an hour and a half, an hour and a half, Um,

1815
01:45:13,439 --> 01:45:16,599
Speaker 1: I mean it was that was awesome. I mean, I mean, Seth,

1816
01:45:16,720 --> 01:45:19,880
Speaker 1: you're there taking pictures and you spot in the buck

1817
01:45:19,960 --> 01:45:24,000
Speaker 1: and UM, I mean I think you're the the closest

1818
01:45:24,040 --> 01:45:29,439
Speaker 1: one to to my age, right, Matt, how old are you? You?

1819
01:45:29,000 --> 01:45:32,720
Speaker 1: So you're younger, so I guess me and you are

1820
01:45:32,800 --> 01:45:35,439
Speaker 1: kind of the the young I mean, I'm the youngest one,

1821
01:45:36,040 --> 01:45:37,839
Speaker 1: but I feel like me and you kind of connect

1822
01:45:37,920 --> 01:45:41,439
Speaker 1: on kind of like a similar wavelength from a similar lens.

1823
01:45:41,680 --> 01:45:46,120
Speaker 1: And um, I mean I mean, Rick, I mean, I

1824
01:45:46,439 --> 01:45:49,240
Speaker 1: have a hell of a hell of respect from what

1825
01:45:49,280 --> 01:45:51,520
Speaker 1: you do because you have to get the right angles.

1826
01:45:51,560 --> 01:45:54,760
Speaker 1: And um, being a part of the baseball world, I know,

1827
01:45:54,880 --> 01:45:57,240
Speaker 1: kind of like all the camp I don't know it,

1828
01:45:57,280 --> 01:45:59,599
Speaker 1: but I'm familiar with having to get the different takes

1829
01:45:59,600 --> 01:46:03,439
Speaker 1: a different angles, changing the lens, the light. Um. And

1830
01:46:03,560 --> 01:46:08,280
Speaker 1: I can't imagine how difficult that is, Like moving around quietly,

1831
01:46:08,720 --> 01:46:13,240
Speaker 1: not being able to make a sound sort of quietly.

1832
01:46:12,800 --> 01:46:15,920
Speaker 1: That's extremely quiet, while Steve's yelling at you the whole time.

1833
01:46:16,000 --> 01:46:18,400
Speaker 1: That's that's that's that's why one of the best parts

1834
01:46:18,760 --> 01:46:25,479
Speaker 1: was watching Steve over last. It's more of a stair

1835
01:46:25,560 --> 01:46:31,040
Speaker 1: than it's yells of love. Lastly, Steve, I felt like, um,

1836
01:46:31,080 --> 01:46:33,040
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's like the way that you kind of,

1837
01:46:34,000 --> 01:46:35,760
Speaker 1: I mean rec put it in a really good in

1838
01:46:35,760 --> 01:46:38,719
Speaker 1: a really good way, like you were mentoring me because

1839
01:46:38,880 --> 01:46:42,479
Speaker 1: I haven't hunted since, um since my grandpa pass when

1840
01:46:42,520 --> 01:46:46,559
Speaker 1: I was in I haven't and then after that, like

1841
01:46:46,680 --> 01:46:50,240
Speaker 1: I was in college and baseball kind of took over.

1842
01:46:50,280 --> 01:46:54,799
Speaker 1: And I've always had this affinity for um, like outdoor

1843
01:46:54,840 --> 01:46:58,439
Speaker 1: activities and all right, and being able to come out

1844
01:46:58,439 --> 01:47:01,000
Speaker 1: here and do this, and and you being like one

1845
01:47:01,040 --> 01:47:02,760
Speaker 1: of the main mentors. I feel like all of you

1846
01:47:02,760 --> 01:47:06,439
Speaker 1: guys were mentors in a way, but Steve, like the

1847
01:47:06,479 --> 01:47:08,840
Speaker 1: way that you and the cool thing is is like

1873
01:48:35,960 --> 01:48:38,000
Speaker 1: that we're on in the episode, it's going to be

1874
01:48:38,040 --> 01:48:42,320

Speaker 1: the platform, the platform called but Cody's just like, we

1876
01:48:45,080 --> 01:48:49,160

1877
01:48:49,160 --> 01:48:54,960
Speaker 1: only like two months old. Because yeah, Cody Cody Coda

1878
01:48:55,000 --> 01:48:57,120
Speaker 1: built that thing, right, Yeah, I had help from a

1879
01:48:57,120 --> 01:48:59,920
