All right, new episode of the podcast, motorcycles podcast
0:03
episode. I think this might be #7069 or
0:06
71 of the other, but we are back.
0:11
You have a haircut, you have glasses on.
0:13
You're really, you've been into your appearance lately and it
0:16
shows you're looking great. So what have what have?
0:20
What are some of your tips? To all Our Lady or male
0:23
listeners who want to look their best, give us some of your tips.
0:27
Well, well, you see, I have a bit of a well, you could
0:32
probably call like an addictive personality.
0:34
I should never try like hard. Can you say drugs on YouTube?
0:40
Well, I. Don't know, but we'll find out I
0:42
guess. So I should never do that, which
0:45
is what makes like quitting nicotine so hard.
0:50
But yeah, so we started, you know, we've talked plenty about
0:54
the whole like losing weight and, you know, trying carnivore
0:58
for extended period of time and being very dedicated to that.
1:03
And then is getting back to the started with biking at first,
1:06
which kind of, you know, ease me back into the gym.
1:11
Then we went right back to the gym five days a week whenever
1:14
we're home. And now we've picked back up our
1:19
100 setups a day and then we've picked back up our running a
1:24
mile a day, even on the weekends, typically when we're
1:29
not going to the gym. And so that basically just LED
1:33
right into, you know, now that we're at a manageable weight and
1:39
appearance that we, we enjoy again, that's physically
1:43
healthier to, to carry around on my skeletal frame.
1:49
Now I'm, I'm deep diving into the, the, I don't even like the
1:54
word diet because everybody, I think always, you know, from
1:59
back in the day, the word diet. Like what do you think of yours
2:03
may be different, but what do you think of when you hear the
2:05
word diet? I would say the first one that
2:09
comes to mind to me is Atkins Diet.
2:11
I remember that was really big for a while and basically it was
2:16
a, it was like a Gen. 1 keto diet, no carbs basically and
2:22
just very restrictive. I would say if I were to use
2:26
boil it down to one term, I would say typically a diet is
2:30
looked at as pretty restrictive on your lifestyle.
2:35
Yeah, and isn't that unfortunate because like, that's not let me
2:39
just Google the definition of diet real quick to read.
2:42
OK, while she's while she is Googling the definition of diet,
2:46
we do have Bow Disciples Challenge 4 tickets are
2:50
available right now on bowdisciples.com.
2:53
We have one day, 2 day, three day passes, kids passes, and
2:56
Walker passes. There is 4 courses this year
3:00
instead of 315 targets apiece. To me, 15 targets is like the
3:04
perfect length of a course, so be sure you check that out.
3:08
All the information is on boatdisciples.com.
3:11
Also, Team BD, as always, saves 20% on badlandsgear.com.
3:17
And shout out to all the sponsors.
3:21
Gaspo Strings, Best in the game, boning right here, and just all
3:25
the guys. So yeah, Boat disciples.com.
3:28
Hopefully we'll see you guys May 15th through 17th.
3:31
And yeah, hit us with that definition.
3:34
Yes, you know, you're not wrong per SE like there's like if you
3:40
know, multiple meanings of the same spelled word.
3:44
Sometimes I'm trying to think of one off the top of my head now
3:47
and I can't but but so diet, that is one of the definitions a
3:53
regimen of eating and drinking sparingly so as to reduce one's
3:56
weight. But then there's also three more
3:59
definitions for the same word. Diet, food and drink regularly
4:03
provided or consumed. Habitual nourishment.
4:07
The kind and amount of food prescribed for a person, animal
4:11
or for a special reason. So I guess it's just it's
4:16
unfortunate because the primary assumption of the word is that
4:20
last definition, a restricted regimen of food for losing, you
4:24
know, a specific amount of weight.
4:27
But that's not the only definition of diet.
4:29
So when I say I'm focusing now on my diet, people are like, oh,
4:34
my God, you know, you're already so small.
4:36
Like, why are you restricting yourself?
4:38
That's not the case. Diet can mean many, many forms
4:42
of the word. And so when I say diet, I just
4:45
mean that I'm taking a stronger deep dive, look into what I'm
4:51
eating, how much am I eating and categorizing the things that I
4:58
eat in the categories that they belong in.
5:01
So looking at the proper amount of protein, I am, you would
5:06
think for being, you know, a hunter that I'd be good at
5:10
eating protein. We do eat through our freezer,
5:12
but I am categorically ass at eating protein that I'm supposed
5:18
to on a daily basis based on my weight and size.
5:24
And so creating a diet or regimental plan of food that
5:30
I'll intake throughout the week that ensures that I am eating
5:36
the proper amount of protein per day to recover better, to gain
5:41
muscle, to stay strong, to stay healthy.
5:46
And then with that is your, your carbs, your fats, your sugars,
5:51
you know, all of those fun things.
5:53
So ChatGPT and I did a, you know, conference call and came
5:57
up with a plan. And it is, you know, now you've
6:02
done it for a day with me. A lot of food, it's so much
6:07
food. It's, it's weird.
6:10
It's hard to focus when I can tell that your mind's like in
6:14
left field. Sometimes I see your eyeballs
6:17
wander off into the best I could tell that time you're changing
6:20
the TV also because they're remote.
6:22
But anyways, it's a lot of food and they call it in the the the
6:27
cool bodybuilders world body recomposition.
6:34
All recomposition means it's just you're, you're changing the
6:38
amount of calories that you eat in a day, ensuring that they're
6:42
the right calorie breakdown in order to adjust your metabolism.
6:51
So I know that my metabolism is slower than a sloth that got
6:55
stuck in molasses in Alaska. It's that slow.
7:00
And so right now, trying to intake the amount of calories
7:04
that this diet says to intake and protein and fats and carbs,
7:09
by the time the next meal comes, I'm like, ha, more food.
7:16
So it's going to take a while for my body to recognize, oh,
7:21
she's, she's feeding me all the right things now, you know, and
7:28
then adjust its metabolism accordingly.
7:31
But that's going to take more than, you know, a couple weeks.
7:34
And I'm only on day 2 and it's lunchtime and I do not want
7:40
lunch but I'm going to eat lunch and my snack.
7:45
Oh you can. You can comment about the snack
7:47
because we ate the snack for dessert last night.
7:51
Yeah, it was Greek yogurt with some berries and almonds.
7:55
Greek yogurt. Yeah, almonds, bananas.
7:59
And yeah, it was, it was very solid.
8:01
I mean, much better than have. I'm not a sweets guy, but much
8:05
better than having like a pint of ice cream or something along
8:08
those lines. So yeah, I I think it's good.
8:13
And you can even drizzle or you know, it's not against the rules
8:15
because it's natural sugars. You can drizzle a little bit of
8:18
I mean don't coat it like a hot fudge sundae, but you know, you
8:22
could drizzle honey on there to help sweeten the non fat yogurt.
8:27
Helpful tips are making sure your berries are ripe, you know,
8:31
because if they're not, they're a little unless you love bitter.
8:34
I know you like more like bitter or tart things.
8:36
I do not. I love my sweets.
8:40
But yeah, you liked it and thought it was like a a satiable
8:46
substitute for dessert. Right.
8:48
I mean, I don't even have dessert, so it was just like
8:50
extra stuff. But I mean, you got to follow
8:53
the plan and it was in the plan to have.
8:56
So yeah, I mean, it was fine. And well, I don't know, I'm
9:00
enjoying it and I think it's cool.
9:03
I've always loved weight training.
9:04
It's just been a part of my life for 13 years now, since like
9:09
20/12/2013. So it's cool to see you in the
9:13
gym and, and as fired up about it as I always am.
9:17
So I think that's been really fun to watch and, and it's good.
9:20
It's never bad to move more. That's The thing is like I
9:24
always say, I think the cheat code for someone who's like just
9:27
getting started on a fitness journey is like, if you do these
9:31
four steps, I think you're, you're doing great.
9:35
Would be at least 8 hours of sleep, gallon of water a day,
9:41
10,000 steps a day, and get like at least an hour of sunshine
9:48
today. I think if you just do those
9:50
four things, you're going to be far better off than whatever you
9:54
were doing prior. Yeah, And the only thing I would
9:56
adjust to what you said, because I think sometimes people hear a
9:59
gallon of water and they're like, holy shit, that's a lot of
10:02
water. But it doesn't have to be, you
10:05
know, a gallon for you pretty much equates to your your body
10:08
weight. But it's like what, an ounce per
10:13
per pound I believe. Or maybe it's 2 oz per pound.
10:17
I know it's an ounce per pound I believe.
10:19
I could be wrong, but just add that up and figure out what that
10:23
is in cups. And then like like what I did
10:27
with that, my 40 oz Stanley is I just tried to drink three of
10:34
those a day. And then, you know, you don't
10:38
have to sit there and get one of those.
10:39
You know, I tried one and lost it.
10:41
One of those cups that has like 1 cup, you're doing great, 2
10:44
cut. And if you need that motivation,
10:46
you know, get one of those cups on Amazon.
10:47
But I just refilled it the Stanley three times.
10:50
So like I feel it before we walk to the gym and by the time
10:54
granted you sip some of it, but you know, so there's a cheat
10:57
there for me, but I tried to drink one before we get back to
11:02
the house, fill it up before we leave the gym and try to drink
11:05
it, you know, from there and back.
11:06
That's one already in the morning before I've even had a
11:09
cup. That's another thing is caffeine
11:12
and you've been harping on me to make sure, which I think I'm
11:16
doing a fairly think I've cheated like one day in the past
11:19
week or two of having the caffeine before the water, but
11:23
trying to have they say at least 8 ounces of water before you
11:27
have caffeine or coffee in the morning.
11:30
So I just try to drink one of my Stanley's before I come home and
11:34
then we'll have a cup of coffee with our breakfast.
11:39
But so switching things like that so you're getting your
11:41
hydration in. But yeah, the, you know, don't
11:44
scare yourself off with trying to buy a gallon milk jug and
11:48
smell like holy cow. Just start with, you know,
11:52
you're Stanley, you're Yeti, whatever your thing is.
11:54
And, you know, try to fill it two times in a day and then
11:57
three times and, you know, work up.
11:59
I think taking things in increments is what's made this
12:02
so possible for me to do in less than a year.
12:05
You know, it's 30 lbs in less than a year, plus a body
12:10
recomposition you could say is I've gone back to the gym.
12:13
So it's not just weight loss, it's been muscle gain, it's been
12:16
endurance, it's been, you know, diet recomposition.
12:20
But I didn't just decide to try and tackle all of that at once
12:25
because I think that scares people.
12:28
That just scares. I think it confuses people that
12:30
you don't know where to start. Like you just said, start with
12:32
those four simple things and then maybe do that for a few
12:35
months. And then once you're comfortable
12:39
and you feel like that's just a part of your routine, like it
12:42
took me 10 to far as like I'm going to tackle tracking, you
12:45
know, calories and protein. So wait till you're comfortable.
12:51
There's no, you know, I bought this book and it says start
12:55
after three months and then six months.
12:56
Like, if you're not ready, then wait another month till you feel
13:01
comfortable and then, you know, add the next step, whatever that
13:07
is. And I think that makes it a lot
13:10
easier for people. And I know lots of people be
13:13
like, oh, you care about your looks or whatnot.
13:16
And it's like, bruh, it's not about the looks.
13:22
Yeah, it's nice to have your hair done and your face on, your
13:26
eyelashes on and whatnot. But you feel health wise, more
13:33
confident and then that just, you know, flows into every
13:38
little step, whether it's your physical appearance or your
13:41
personality or you know, any, any category.
13:46
So why why not do it? Like it just makes no sense to
13:54
me. And granted, there are things
13:57
like depression or anxiety or whatever.
14:01
And we had, as we've talked about, a long bout of me, your
14:05
favorite period of time with me, you know, staying in bed,
14:11
sleeping all day, watching TV all day, basically doing
14:16
nothing. And how did that translate into
14:20
my mood and overall demeanor? Not well.
14:29
I feel like there's a short right there.
14:32
Not well, but yeah. So it just you're just more
14:38
lively, there's more energy and with more energy comes more
14:41
confidence, more willingness to do things and go places and
14:46
yadda, yadda, yadda. And so it all is just positive.
14:53
There's our talk about health for the segment.
14:57
Yeah, that was great. How's your journey been?
15:00
Good. Yeah.
15:00
I don't know. I feel great, look great,
15:03
probably in the best shape of my life.
15:05
You know, I mean, I don't know, I, you know, look, when you're
15:09
in the, you know, entertainment space, which is what I consider
15:13
what I do, right, I. Think your entertainment space
15:17
or entertainment industry. I think of the different
15:19
industry. Like what acting or?
15:22
The form of it. Yeah, I do.
15:24
Well, I, I have been manifesting that I want to, I want to do
15:29
acting next. That's my next thing.
15:31
So I was a bike rider, a real estate guy, now a Archer slash
15:36
hunter, which I've been forever, but just publicly Archer and and
15:41
hunter next I want to be actor. So that's, that's what I meant.
15:44
I want to do like a sitcom or something.
15:46
So hopefully one day I find a way to to make that happen.
15:51
But I would love to do some acting.
15:52
I really like acting. I'm telling you could so I know
15:55
like you were like I don't want my own TV show or whatnot one
15:58
day. But just think about the way
15:59
your TV show could be and would be so DIF.
16:04
It'd be like your reality TV that you love so much.
16:08
Love reality, you know, basically, it'd be a reality TV
16:11
show around your life. Yeah, I mean, I, I love it.
16:15
So yeah, no, I mean, the hell stuffs been good.
16:18
I think it's important to, I do think looks are important, you
16:22
know, especially when you're in entertainment.
16:24
I think people typically if you see people with like some sort
16:28
of platform, they're usually not ugly, you know what I'm saying?
16:30
So I do think it's important. I was, I got a little thick for
16:33
a while as well and I'm toning it back in, getting in better
16:38
and better shape. Strength is still good.
16:40
The endurance is getting better. But I do think it's important to
16:43
try to #1 be healthy, which usually translates to looking
16:47
better directly. So that's something I'm, I am
16:50
always working on. But yeah, I don't think there's
16:53
anything wrong with saying that. I think like there's this stigma
16:56
like, Oh, you shouldn't say you care about looks like, but you
16:59
do care. Like everyone cares.
17:01
Like it's so stupid to pretend like you don't.
17:04
It's sort of like when people go, Oh, you only do social media
17:06
because you, you like attention. It's like, I do like attention.
17:09
I'll say it. I know you're not supposed to
17:11
say it, but I'll say it. And so does other people.
17:15
It's just like you're I just, I don't do the stigma stuff.
17:18
Like of all, you can't say this because like that's not socially
17:22
acceptable. What is that?
17:25
Like I'm not on that wave. It's like, no, I prefer to just
17:27
be honest about stuff happening, you know?
17:31
And you know, I mean, shoot, we work hard.
17:35
We do a lot of hours, a lot of travel.
17:37
I've been freaking shooting like 10 to 12 hours a week on top of
17:41
training and editing all these. Videos.
17:44
That's only my indoor. So my point is, like, if we're
17:47
not in shape and taking care of our health and our body and
17:50
stuff, I'm not going to have the energy to edit, edit 10 videos
17:54
and then go film two more and shoot 2 hours a day and work out
17:59
and run and like, it's a lot of stuff.
18:02
So to even do it, you have to be taking care of yourself or else
18:08
you're going to get worn down and not be able to do it.
18:11
And there are times where we'll be worn down.
18:13
I mean, you can go watch the Hawaii video from last year.
18:16
I have a friggin huge cold sore on my face and my face was
18:19
falling apart and it's still scarred to this day because I
18:23
was like so short on sleep working.
18:28
So I don't know. But my point is like, being
18:32
healthy is cool. It should be looked at as cool.
18:36
I think it's cool. So, I mean, you know, yeah, I'm,
18:38
I'm amped up on it. And obviously we're going to
18:41
keep it moving because we got a lot of big stuff coming up, I
18:44
mean. Yeah, I do.
18:45
I just I, I love what you just said there because a lot of
18:50
times for, you know, always, I always get to speak from the
18:54
women's aspect, being a woman and it just couldn't, they
19:00
couldn't be any more true. It's just so frustrating when
19:05
you hear the negative comments from, from people and then from
19:10
women saying it about other women as well.
19:14
And it's like they're not like, sure.
19:18
And maybe they're posting because they like, you know,
19:21
attention. That doesn't mean somebody's
19:23
obsessed with attention. But is it nice to be
19:27
complimented of, like, good work?
19:30
Holy cow. You put a lot of work in the gym
19:32
or whatever. Yeah, and kudos to them for
19:36
doing it. And then that's that doesn't
19:38
mean that's their only reason for doing it.
19:40
What if it's just somebody's hobby and they love
19:44
bodybuilding? Should they hide it and not post
19:47
themselves on social media? And we don't know that person
19:51
who I'm not. It's just it gets me because
19:52
what you said is exactly true. Like so they post themselves at
19:57
the gym on social media or like. Postal workout or at the gym in
20:04
the mirror or, you know, done up or whatever, you know, and then
20:11
boom, here comes the negative comments of like, oh, they just
20:15
want attention or oh, like why are you wearing makeup at the
20:19
gym or, or or mayor wearing makeup hunting or it's like
20:26
what? Why don't like where is the
20:28
positivity? Like why not just be like great
20:33
job, great job for going to the gym today.
20:36
Well. Here's the deal, right?
20:40
You're never going to see people.
20:41
I've said this once, I said it a million times, but when people
20:46
look lately I've been getting hammered by comments, right?
20:50
I've been getting just smoked by comments by people.
20:53
But again, your mind focuses on the negative ones are still way
20:57
more positive. Probably out of 195 will be +5
21:01
will be negative. But those are the ones that you
21:03
think about are the negative ones, right?
21:05
And lately I've had a lot, a lot more negative ones than I've
21:08
been used to. But guess what?
21:09
All that means is that the numbers in the in the platforms
21:13
are doing well every single time.
21:15
When you know when the hate rolls in, that means your stuff
21:17
is cranking. And that's the truth.
21:19
So what it is is that there is a there's two types of people in
21:24
the world. There's people that like to win
21:27
and do their Max potential and try to push themselves and hang
21:30
out with people that also push themselves.
21:32
There's that group of people and then there's a group of people
21:34
that make excuses for everything in their life and are never
21:38
going to accomplish a shit load because they'll never get
21:41
outside their comfort zone. And rather than do that and push
21:44
themselves and keep leveling up, what they do is shit on people
21:47
who they see doing that because they're too scared to do it.
21:51
So they rather than say, yo, good job, you're really crushing
21:54
it, they go, I only am not doing it because I don't care about
21:59
attention. And it's like, is that really it
22:01
or are you lazy bastard? I think you're lazy and scared
22:04
is what it is. But again, it's two different
22:07
mindsets. And I think the book, I've
22:10
talked about it before, but the book I'm as a man thinketh is
22:14
no, I'm telling you it's dialed. It's exactly about this.
22:17
You have to cultivate a mindset of positivity because your mind
22:21
is a garden. And if you're constantly
22:23
thinking negative shit and you see, if you're a girl and you
22:26
see some super hot girl on Instagram on the Explore page
22:29
and your first thought is look at her filming herself at the
22:33
gym, is that really what you think?
22:36
Or are you just conscious about filming yourself at the gym or?
22:38
Are you just jealous because she's way hotter than you?
22:40
Let's be realistic. Right.
22:41
Well, and that's as I've been thinking about this more and
22:44
more and more because like, for example, there was that girl
22:47
who's the Super strong one who can do like hand stands and
22:49
shit. Oh, and a beast, you know, and
22:52
at first you could be like fuck, are you doing a handstand at the
22:55
gym? But it's like.
22:57
Have you seen her physique? Yeah, and.
22:59
So she was sitting there doing back squats yesterday and she
23:03
had on just the, the sports bra and the, the, what do you call
23:07
those spandex shorts? Spandex shorts, not regular
23:09
shorts, spandex shorts. And you're just watching her.
23:13
And by you, I mean myself. And I'm like, I'm glad that this
23:18
is the way my mindset went. Wasn't like put some damn
23:21
clothes on or like why are you looking at yourself in the
23:23
mirror or like it was I could not wear that yet to the gym.
23:30
But that is even positive because I'm saying OK, I
23:34
recognize that that woman is fit as fuck and I need to get there.
23:40
I may not be there yet or I may not be comfortable with wearing
23:43
that there yet. And everybody has their own
23:46
comfortability level, you know, like some people may have some
23:49
fluff rolls and be OK with wearing that and that's
23:51
perfectly fine too. But find what's comfortable for
23:54
you, you know, and your own comfortability and your
23:56
comfortable skin. And I could see that and think
24:00
that and the thoughts that came through my head, we're not
24:03
jealousy, but that that makes me think that sometimes maybe it's
24:07
not just jealousy, but it's also a deep rooted subconscious
24:13
insecurity. And so and that can come off,
24:17
you know, as a form of jealousy when people write things and
24:20
what not. But it also just screams to me
24:24
that maybe you're not answering your own questions about your
24:28
own insecurities and figuring out like what, when, where and
24:34
when would you be comfortable doing what you're hating on that
24:39
person doing? And it could, you know, you
24:42
could just not ever be not because it's not comfortable,
24:45
because you think it's not wholesome or you know, it's
24:49
inappropriate or whatever. But like what does?
24:53
Like what is having hair extensions or getting your hair
24:56
done have to do with like not being wholesome or or like it
25:02
doesn't. So why would we like shit on
25:03
somebody for it? Well, well, like I said earlier.
25:06
I just don't understand. It's two different types of
25:09
mindsets. That's all it is.
25:10
So that's the homework for this episode is go read that book.
25:13
It's not a long book. As a man, Thinketh is a real
25:16
banger just to adjust your mind. I don't know why you're giggling
25:19
like it is a fire book. Yeah.
25:22
It's just, it's about, it's about yay big, right?
25:25
And it's about yay big in size like dimensions wise.
25:30
And it was just you would read me some quotes from it.
25:33
And it's just granted, I don't read a lot of nonfict.
25:38
Well, I do read nonfiction, but it's more of like historical,
25:41
not like mindset or growth or whatever.
25:44
So when you're for me, it was very dry when you would.
25:48
And so that's what makes it funny.
25:50
It sounds very like just like the name of thinketh it like
25:54
when the way it is written reminds me of somebody writing
25:58
it in like the 17th century. Well, it's a old.
26:01
Book, but I think it's sold more copies than like, I mean, it's a
26:05
very highly sold book. You know, I just that's what
26:08
makes me giggle every time because I think of like, I think
26:11
of like Xavier or what's his name X in, in our show The
26:16
Walking Dead right now, Ezekiel. It reminds me of Ezekiel of just
26:21
like this like 17th century king, like from like King Arthur
26:26
or something. And that's what that book
26:28
reminds. Brianna's kind of being a hater
26:30
of as a man thinketh you're being a hater mentality.
26:34
No, not just because the book in the way that it's is written
26:38
makes me giggle is not a hater mentality.
26:41
And see that's defensiveness. I think just as somebody giggles
26:45
about the the tone in which the book is written does not mean
26:51
that they hate something. Continental breakfast continent.
27:00
Well, yeah, I again, peace, love and positivity.
27:03
That's what I'm all about. I'm about growing the sport of
27:07
archery and that's always been the goal.
27:10
So I am on the wave that if people are helping to grow the
27:15
sport, I'm on board. I'm supportive of it.
27:20
And if people have bad intentions, which I think
27:23
occasionally does happen, not very often, they're going to,
27:27
they're not going to last very long.
27:29
There's a quote, I think my friend actually Whitney
27:32
commented it on a video one time or I actually, I think it was a
27:35
podcast. And if she's dead on, she said
27:39
if you want to go somewhere fast, go alone.
27:43
But if you want to like go the distance over a long period of
27:47
time, like go, go together, be supportive, right?
27:50
She's right about that. And I think that for, for, for
27:53
us and what we're doing, it's not special, right?
27:57
We're not doing anything special.
27:58
We're not doing anything nobody else is doing.
28:01
Like that's it. That's something that like
28:02
content people say that I'm like, they'll be like, well, I'm
28:04
doing stuff that no one's really doing.
28:06
I'm like, bro, that's not. True, somebody, somewhere is
28:08
doing. Like, that's not true.
28:10
We're not doing anything special.
28:11
We just like to go out, have fun, shoot bows.
28:14
And as long as it's getting people to want to shoot archery,
28:18
that's great, you know? And I don't care whether that's
28:21
us getting people into it or page or elk shape or some target
28:27
shooter I've never heard of or a recurve person like or or or
28:31
game or what's that movie called Hunger Games, like whatever.
28:37
As long as stuff is getting people into the sport of
28:39
archery, I'm I'm supportive of it and really like it because
28:43
one thing I've really been liking to see recently on my
28:46
practice sessions, like I said, when I go to performance archery
28:49
right now, it's like I'm checking into work.
28:51
Basically. I go, it's a morning fellows and
28:53
like I go shoot for two hours. It's ridiculous how much I'm
28:56
shooting. It's like 8 to 12 hours a week.
28:59
It's a lot of time. So I'm getting to see all the
29:02
different types of people that shoot and it is diverse.
29:06
I mean, you got old people, young people.
29:09
Especially because where we live.
29:10
Old people, young people, boys, girls, all ethnicities,
29:15
different religions, all sorts of different types of bows and
29:19
people are just coming shooting, having fun.
29:21
And I'm like, bro, that is special to me and I love it.
29:26
And it is interesting too because I'll go shoot and some
29:32
days it's just, you know, I try to go at hours where like it's
29:35
maybe not so busy, but sometimes I'll be there and there's like
29:38
25 people and sometimes I'll be there and there's like one or
29:41
two or rarely just me. But it I got a, it's interesting
29:47
because I was shooting the other day and I was shooting, I mean,
29:51
pretty good, you know, just banging medals for the most
29:53
part. And I've had it a couple times
29:55
recently where people shooting next to me will walk up and as I
29:59
walk up, people will like look over at my target and the big
30:01
dude, like that's your consistency is insane, you know,
30:06
and I go, thank you very much, you know, like, but in my head,
30:10
just go show how people work. I go, thank you so much and I'm
30:12
very appreciative. But then I go man, but I've seen
30:16
Paige shoot and I'm not even anywhere.
30:19
I have a long ways to go. Like I'm looking at this target
30:21
up here, 323 X. That's my best I've ever shot
30:26
and that's really good. But like to her that would be
30:28
super sloppy. So it's interesting how it's
30:31
important. It's a personal trait.
30:34
I, I think I is important to pay attention to if someone gives
30:38
you a compliment, make sure you say thank you and be
30:41
appreciative. Even if in your head you're
30:43
like, I'm still that's this isn't that good because it is
30:46
really good. It's way above average.
30:49
It's just not as good as someone who's the best in the world.
30:51
So it's like, it's interesting. Like I'm also not a big gift
30:56
giver. I don't like receiving gifts or
30:59
I don't like receiving gifts or giving gifts, right?
31:02
It's not that I don't like it. It's just not like something
31:04
that calls out to me. But I remember I read a book one
31:06
time that said, you know, if someone, what was it?
31:12
If someone wants to give you a gift, like you have to be open
31:15
to receive it because like, let's say I wanted to give you a
31:19
gift, right? Like a bow or something.
31:21
And you're like, Nah, I can't take this.
31:23
I'm not going to take this. You're actually like harming the
31:27
person trying to give you the gift.
31:30
You know what I'm saying? Like you, you need to be
31:31
appreciative and open to receive it.
31:34
And that's the same thing I'm learning with these compliments
31:37
I'll get because it's cool. Like I, I am proud of my
31:39
shooting, but it's like, rather than go, oh, well, it's not that
31:43
good. I have a long ways to go.
31:45
Rather than respond like that. It's very important to go.
31:47
Oh, dude, thanks so much. Like, you know, I still, I'm
31:50
still trying to get a little better, but thank you or
31:53
whatever, you know. And so that's been interesting
31:57
too. And then, I don't know, I got to
31:59
help a kid fix his bow the other day.
32:01
That was kind of cool. His freaking mod on his Cam was
32:04
like almost falling out. Yeah, sketchy.
32:08
But but my point is like, I like seeing archery grow.
32:11
I don't care who shoots or what your deal is, or if you're a
32:15
blarper who likes to go wear medieval stuff and shoot a
32:19
recurve, like, well, I'm supportive of it.
32:20
I'll go do a LAR ping video for the channel, you know what I
32:23
mean? Could you imagine?
32:24
Yeah, there'll be fire and. Remind what you're saying kind
32:27
of reminds me of it was playing. I didn't know if you heard it or
32:29
not because I was in the bathroom.
32:30
And so it just kept repeating, but Bob does sports posted
32:38
Instagram post the other day to what's the Irish dude's name or
32:44
Scottish, I don't know. Oh, the golfer.
32:46
Yeah, Rory. Rory McIlroy Yeah, and tagged a
32:52
minute because in a interview and interview that McIlroy did,
33:00
some one of the publisher or press guys asked them, what do
33:04
you think of like, or do you follow along with, you know, the
33:08
like the YouTube and, you know, Fat Perez's of the world, like
33:13
gaining traction in promoting the sport or whatever.
33:18
And you know, though his answer was professional, it was like,
33:22
no, like I'd, I'd rather you said basically stumbled around
33:26
on his words and then said, look, I'd rather I'd rather
33:30
watch it this way. Saturday mornings on, you know,
33:32
the pro channel, you know, on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
33:36
And and that's that. It's just he goes like not my,
33:40
my age group or whatever. And that's it's very true.
33:45
So like, nothing is wrong with what McElroy said, you know, but
33:50
key thing to what he said is, is it's not my age group exactly.
33:55
And that's fine, but not everybody is your age group.
33:59
So not everybody finds fascination in your engagement
34:06
in the same type of content. And that doesn't even solely
34:11
mean your age group or demographic.
34:15
But where I may not want to go watch pro golf and and tap like
34:23
this, but I may want to watch Bob does sports.
34:26
But guess what? Both people are watching the
34:29
sport of golf. And so that's where, you know, I
34:34
love the comments, you know, that you get sometimes of like
34:38
the hater people, the one like I think you shared the other day
34:40
of, you know, take bold disciples out of this and I
34:43
would watch it. Well, buddy number one, you're
34:47
already. Watching.
34:50
Cracks me up. But number 2 is that it's like,
34:55
OK, that's fine, we're not your cup of tea, maybe somebody else
34:59
is. You should probably go watch
35:01
theirs instead of watching this and commenting on it.
35:03
But The thing is, is you are somebody's cup of tea.
35:09
And so it's it's just funny when like you can be good and you
35:18
know, your, your cup of tea is being funny.
35:20
You know, having fun, because being funny and having fun are
35:23
two different things. But you do both of them but can
35:27
still help a kid, you know, in the shop and they don't.
35:31
You don't need to be, you know, a pro that they saw on the TV
35:37
channel on, on, you know, Saturday sports live to trust
35:41
that they can help you or that they can assist you or that you
35:44
can learn something from them. You can get information,
35:49
knowledge or just watch and have a good laugh from this channel
35:55
and you could do the same thing and get you may not laugh, but
35:58
you may get you may still be engaged.
36:00
Doesn't mean you have to laugh to be engaged by watching a more
36:03
serious type of content, whether it's on YouTube or like, you
36:07
know, a pro shoot off on TV or whatever.
36:10
And it's just so that it it all just continues to go back to
36:14
like the negativity comments that it's like, but not
36:17
everybody's like you, you know, being the commenter.
36:23
So why comment negatively anyways?
36:26
I don't know. But it's just everybody has a
36:29
different cup of tea. Yeah, of course.
36:32
But I've been in, like I said, I've been really enjoying
36:38
shooting at the range and just seeing different types of
36:42
people, vibing with other types of people, and also working on
36:48
the craft of my target shooting. It's been, I think, coming along
36:52
pretty well. I think my bow is just about to
36:57
the point where I'm not really going to do anything else until
37:01
after the Vegas shoot. I did confirm today at the bow
37:07
and arrow shop. I just got some new gas bow
37:09
strings on my bow Tech Alliance, but it's all Joe confirmed.
37:15
I'm going to shoot 30 arrows Friday, 30 Saturday, 30 Sunday,
37:18
so 90 arrows total and I'm pretty sure my bow is where I'm
37:25
going to leave it. I do think that I want to change
37:27
the dot color. Unfortunately we had a bit of a
37:30
issue with ordering the dots, but I'm either going to color it
37:34
or print one on my stickers or Joe said he might have some at
37:37
his house. So after I changed the the scope
37:40
dot color from yellow to something else, just not yellow.
37:45
I I think that the bow is good. That's where I'm going to leave
37:49
it pretty much. I might rotate the ACU just ever
37:54
so slightly, like 1/4 turn at a time and see if one of those is
37:57
better. Maybe I'll draw a little dot on
38:00
the top so I know like where I'm where I'm at on the rotation.
38:04
But yeah, I mean, been shooting a lot.
38:07
Probably anywhere between 90 and 120 arrows per session three to
38:11
four days a week. So a lot.
38:16
So yeah, definitely getting better.
38:18
The endurance. I don't struggle with the shakes
38:20
anymore. We're breaking down really at
38:23
all. So it's good.
38:26
I have two, two and a half, 2 1/2 weeks till we leave.
38:31
I think tomorrow will be two weeks till we leave.
38:34
So two weeks to shoot a lot. And right now I would say we're
38:39
probably averaging about 299, 22 XI would say is probably about
38:45
average. So I'm really hoping that by the
38:48
time Vegas comes around, I'm like 324 X would be like, I'd be
38:52
really happy if that's what I'm shooting most of the time.
38:55
And then just got to try to do it three times in Vegas, you
39:01
know, But I feel feel pretty. It's nice to have the bow where
39:05
I'm like, all right, I'm not going to touch it anymore, you
39:07
know? Yeah, Yeah.
39:08
You finally gotten through that phase that two weeks ago or so
39:13
we were talking about of like it's being experimental and
39:17
changing this and changing that, adjusting this, adjusting that,
39:21
and you've gotten through that experimental phase.
39:23
I'm constantly in the experimental phase.
39:26
Well, I think that in Target, that's like a slope that a lot
39:30
of people do, do and like. And if your page I think you can
39:36
do it. Well, she's got all the
39:37
knowledge, right? Like so she knows how to do it,
39:39
but like for me. Just knowledge, the skill to be
39:42
able to switch things up and her Rep, her repetition, her
39:46
repeatability is so 100%. You know, it's, it's not even
39:51
like a 99.8 like it's 100%. So it's not about like picking
39:58
up the bow and it's a different bow or a different, you know,
40:01
whatever, anything. And something in her
40:06
repeatability in her form changes never, you know, And now
40:11
I think it's such a big factor. And that only comes with like
40:14
you're doing shooting over and over and over again.
40:18
Yeah, the reps have been really good.
40:21
I feel like I don't. Yeah, I feel, I feel really good
40:25
and I'm hoping that, I mean, this will be my first ever
40:29
indoor match ever. I've never done a league, I've
40:32
never done a local 1, nothing. This will be my first one.
40:34
So I know that I know that obviously there will probably be
40:41
some nerves as far as like having so many people there and
40:44
doing something totally different, having like a bit of
40:46
an audience. But what I'm hoping is I'm
40:50
pretty, I don't know, I'm not super easily rattled by high
40:54
pressure situations just because I've competed a long time,
40:58
whether as a biker or, or archery shoots, you know, stuff
41:02
like that. But I'm also, I remember the
41:08
first tack I ever went to back in 2019.
41:10
I remember getting on the first shooting stake and being so
41:13
nervous, you know, like that. Well, there was lots of people
41:16
there, you know, and I wasn't used to shooting around that
41:18
many people. But nowadays I don't get that
41:22
anymore. And I, and I also shoot on film
41:24
a lot. So it's like, I don't know, I
41:28
don't think I, I don't think I'll be that rattled.
41:30
So I hope that's the case and I can just get in there and
41:32
friggin drain shots and hopefully come home with a 900.
41:35
I think if I can do a 900, that would obviously be the goal.
41:41
And yeah, we'll see. But I, like I said, I'm excited
41:45
to have it to where I'm not going to mess with the bow
41:47
anymore. And like I said, where I do
41:49
think it's a slippery slope for someone like myself, just like a
41:52
humble popper like myself is I could sit there and go, well,
41:56
maybe I'll move the bars up a little more.
41:58
I'll tweak these out a little or I'll like move this.
42:01
Like I think it would be really easy to sort of like do these
42:04
little incremental things. But then every time I'm
42:07
shooting, it's different. So now I'm like, all right, it's
42:10
going to be the same from here on out.
42:13
So I just got to shoot it a lot and get the feel and, and, and
42:17
hopefully switch that dot color. But other than that, it's just
42:22
about shooting the arrows and. Well, I think that's a good
42:25
lesson that you learned from you learned that lesson from Paige.
42:30
I I truly believe and and Ted pointed it out the other day,
42:37
you know, he said something about like you guys have always
42:39
been that he might even said humble poppers, you know, but
42:43
who always believed like it's me.
42:44
It can't be the equipment. And I'm not saying that you
42:46
should always blame this. Everybody calls it the
42:49
equipment. It's not blaming, it's
42:51
experimenting, it's finding what works for you.
42:54
And you used to for sure be one of those people who was like,
42:58
I'm not moving my site. I don't I don't, I don't need to
43:01
move my site. And then Paige, I think really
43:05
ingrained into you that like, yes, you can and you should.
43:10
And that's not to say, like you said, like then it always is a
43:14
little different every time you shoot.
43:17
I think the one thing people just need to remember to do is
43:20
give themselves times time with the change they made.
43:25
You know, like you cannot just make the change, go the next day
43:30
to the range and shoot. But it didn't make a difference.
43:32
Let me make another change. Well, how about try shooting
43:36
with it for a week or two weeks before you decide if it's you or
43:42
you know your bars aren't sitting.
43:45
You know, in a way that most benefits you.
43:49
One, one shoot at the range does not make the answer, you know,
43:57
affirmative or negative. And so that I think is key is
44:02
just give yourself time with every experimental change that
44:06
you make, whether it's a season in a hunting rig or a couple
44:09
weeks with a target rig or whatever.
44:13
Yeah, I'm, I, I agree with that. The other thing too is, you
44:18
know, I'm, I'm much quicker now to click the site like mid
44:26
match. So like for example, in Arizona,
44:28
people could go watch the 2 videos, but in the first video,
44:33
day one, everything was hitting really good.
44:36
I had a good day, bow was solid. And then day 2, I mean, the
44:40
first shot was a 5, right? Second shot was A8, right?
44:44
Third was a 5, right? And this is bad.
44:47
It's going really bad and rather than just keep working on it, I
44:51
just started clicking and by like target 5 or 6, I started
44:54
ringing twelves, like a lot of twelves and ended up getting the
44:57
win. But you could see in that video
45:01
that had I not have moved it when I did, I would have been
45:04
cooked and I should have actually probably moved it like
45:06
a little bit sooner. I think I've moved on like
45:08
target 5. I probably should have on like
45:10
target 3, but but indoor, you know, for example, I really have
45:17
been trying to like as I'm, as I'm filling out the paper, like
45:22
see, OK, is it at all right at all at all high, at all low.
45:27
And and then I'll try to actually page calls them comfort
45:31
clicks. So I've been trying to do that.
45:32
Like if they're a little bit right, I'll just throw like 2
45:34
clicks. That's not going to do shit,
45:36
really. Yeah, the micro.
45:38
They're very, very small. So it's like I've been a little
45:41
bit better at that. So like in Vegas, you know, if I
45:43
shoot the first, you know, two, first two practice ends and like
45:47
every arrows like right side of the X or whatever, I'm going to
45:50
just like throw a couple clicks, right.
45:52
And what that reminds me, one thing I still need to do is
45:55
bring in some tape to to the range and, and leave my little
46:00
notes on which way to move the sights.
46:02
That way I don't get confused when I'm there, like some
46:06
packing tape. Well, not packing tape because
46:07
it's clear. Trainer's tape would be great.
46:10
So just make those little notes so that way I don't get in this
46:13
bind in Vegas where I'm like, I want to move it, but I don't
46:16
remember for sure which way to move it.
46:18
So I'll have a note. Well, when you go tomorrow, just
46:21
go with some painters. Tape and a marker, but yeah,
46:26
that's that's exciting. We got that coming up.
46:29
Vegas couple. I mean, actually when this pod
46:31
comes out, it'll be one week till we leave.
46:34
So it's right around the corner. And then shoot a day after this
46:40
podcast comes out, we'll be leaving for the outdoor
46:42
tournament in Arizona. So that's interesting.
46:47
I haven't really shot outdoor at all, but I'm a lot more
46:50
confident in outdoor. So like I I need to go shoot
46:53
that bowl like one day and I think that'll be enough
46:55
practice. I'll feel confident with it, but
46:59
stay tuned for that. And if you guys are watching,
47:02
listening or watching this podcast, we will have two videos
47:05
coming out from that. It's part of the Triple Crown
47:07
series, so that'll be really good.
47:09
And then immediately following is Vegas, and I think we're
47:12
going to try to do it daily videos while we're there in
47:15
Vegas. So definitely stay tuned.
47:17
We'll have stuff hot off the hot off the press and we'll have
47:21
Brianna and Ty, they're filming and doing photos.
47:25
So our contents going to be really, really good.
47:28
And yeah, I don't know how's, how's your confidence and, and
47:32
how I'll perform in, in Vegas. Good.
47:35
I think, I think just years of having done YouTube now and, and
47:40
talking to strangers and and crowds at TAC and whatnot, I
47:46
don't think that'll phase you too much.
47:49
I think the the only phasing you thing will be just the fact that
47:53
this is the first time you've ever done it.
47:57
And that'll be the only thing I think that will cause you a
48:00
little bit of nerves. And once you've gotten past your
48:04
first day, I think then those nerves will subside.
48:08
I don't think crowds will play a factor.
48:10
I don't think that. I think the one positive thing
48:13
that you have working towards you is that you are a very
48:16
competitive shooter. Like you're just a competitive
48:21
person and you know, like you don't ever just let me win.
48:27
Just just let me freaking win. No.
48:32
So I think even if there are a little bit of nerves on that
48:36
first day of this being like, OK, this is the first time I'm
48:38
doing it. Like I want to perform well.
48:41
You also somehow put those nerves to your benefit of
48:47
saying, no, I will do well because I want, I want to get a
48:53
900. And so you almost like turn
48:57
those nerves into like a drive. And I think that's a, you know,
49:04
some level of competitiveness is a good thing for for stuff like
49:09
this or, you know, competitions in general, because it helps it
49:18
helps negate the nerves, you know, and it's not, I mean, I
49:23
guess yes and no for you. That's how it works typically is
49:26
what I've seen for that's not to say that's how it works for
49:30
everybody. Sometimes that Dr. creates more
49:33
nerves and kind of over stimulate yourself into causing
49:37
too much pressure on yourself. Not every person handles it or
49:44
compartmentalizes it the same way, but for you that's the way
49:48
it works I feel like. Yeah.
49:52
And I, I got to give you a little bit of credit too,
49:54
because one thing you used to do that would really like not, it
49:58
just wouldn't help me be better is like when I'd make a bad shot
50:01
and you were filming or whatever, you go like you'd
50:04
freaking out. And I remember one time I was
50:05
like, you got to stop doing that.
50:07
Then you are like kind of pissed I said that, but I was like, no,
50:10
I'm telling you that's not good for my mind.
50:12
Because I think one thing I do really well is like in Vegas,
50:16
for example, like let's say I shoot a nine on round 3 or
50:19
whatever, I'm really good at going.
50:21
All right, I shot A9. Let's let's just, I'm just going
50:25
to, I'm just going to drain them.
50:26
It is what it is. It's in the past.
50:27
But when I hear you or anyone else go like and really freak
50:32
out that I'm like it, it makes me overwhelmed.
50:35
So I got to give you credit because you, you, you have you,
50:38
you've gotten much better at that.
50:40
I think like when we're in Arizona to.
50:42
Be quiet. When we're in Arizona and I went
50:44
through that bad streak, like normally, I think your reaction
50:48
wouldn't have been the best. It took everything in my power
50:51
to not every single first five targets say, can Ioffer you some
50:56
shade? Please let me offer you some
50:59
shade. No, but, but look, I mean, the
51:01
result was still good because I, I, I'm good at recovering.
51:04
I think that's what I'm really, really pretty good at.
51:06
So yeah, I mean, I think it'll be good.
51:09
I I'm excited. I just think that it'll be fun
51:12
for our whole group. And yeah, we'll see.
51:17
I, I, I'm excited to, to get there and like be, get it done.
51:23
Like I'm excited to be past it. Sort of like how I felt like
51:27
when I went to Africa and I was like pretty nervous about
51:29
traveling that far by myself and stuff.
51:32
And I remember thinking to myself like I'll be so stoked
51:34
when I'm like back home. And then it's like in the past,
51:37
I can just like already. Done it now.
51:39
Yeah, so like that's how I feel right now about Vegas is like
51:42
I'm excited to do the work and then be back and then just like
51:47
think about it, you know, and I imagine like I'm not going to
51:52
say for sure whether or not I'll do it again.
51:54
Like this could be a one off, but I would say it's probably
51:57
more likely than not I'll do it again.
51:59
But you know, we just never know so.
52:01
Yeah. If y'all are going to be at
52:03
Vegas and want to watch, I'm doing the flights open.
52:08
I think it's called open flights.
52:10
So if you guys want to, you know, watch or whatever, feel
52:12
free. Brianna and Ty will be there.
52:15
They'll be busy though. Don't talk to them.
52:16
They're doing work. But you know, then of course
52:18
I'll be shooting. But it's going to be fun.
52:21
Yeah, and I think the what I'm excited to, you know, get past
52:26
it and get all the videos out about it.
52:28
It's just because it's the final culmination of the fact that you
52:35
doing this was strictly like an experimental thing for yourself
52:40
to say like, OK, I've shot, you know, as a kid, little tread
52:44
bows. I've shot, you know, compound
52:48
bows. I've done hunting and I've done
52:50
3D shoots. Like, So what haven't I done
52:54
yet? And let me try to do it.
52:56
There was never this like pompous.
53:00
Let me go in there and show them that this is easy.
53:03
Never. Not a single time was that ever
53:06
your motivation, your reasoning, your what you wanted to showcase
53:11
or prove. And just because I and you know,
53:16
more target content has been coming out and thus there are
53:21
more haters, you could call them in the comment keyboard
53:25
warriors, whatever. I'm excited to get past it
53:28
because it's the culmination of, hey, I was doing this just to
53:34
see what I could do. And here it is.
53:39
This is what I could do. There was never, I'm going to go
53:42
in and win flights. Like, no, it's just, it's the,
53:47
it's like when you study for a test until the test finally
53:52
comes around and then you finally get your, your results
53:55
back. And it was like, OK, this is,
53:57
you know, all of the work I've been doing culminated to this.
54:00
And this is how I performed with the bow that I experimented
54:04
with, practiced with, put together, tested, tried out and
54:12
under pressure and a new experience.
54:14
This is, this is the results. I'm excited to get to that on
54:19
film and and then keep going from there.
54:23
Because ultimately, as other comments that you know, the more
54:27
majority of them, more majority have proven is that like it's
54:31
shown other people and thus other people have commented that
54:36
you can go out and try something new for funsies.
54:40
And maybe you can't go buy a $2000 Target rig and put $500
54:45
stabilizers on it and whatever. You can take your old hunting
54:50
bow or your hunting bow post hunting season and swap it over
54:54
for a couple little changes. And we've talked about videos
54:57
for that in the future. But you can go make a couple
55:01
little changes and then have a rig that you can use during
55:05
target season for indoor, whether it's just a practice for
55:08
funsies to see how you compete with yourself because that's
55:11
truly the only person, especially during all the
55:15
practice you're competing with. It's nobody else but yourself in
55:19
your own mind and practice and all that can do is make you
55:24
better come hunting season again.
55:27
And lots of people have then said, I'm going to go try this.
55:32
And that's the whole, again, what this podcast started with.
55:36
It's the whole point for doing it.
55:38
It's just more people get out there and do the sport.
55:42
And I'm sorry, if you think that's a bad thing, I will say
55:46
it. You are wrong.
55:47
You're wrong. You're 110% wrong.
55:52
Because there's only going to be.
55:54
And I and I, I did some, I did research talking, I think it was
55:57
when you were out in Texas. I was talking to Connie and Ted
55:59
about it because it was maybe you were back by the time I
56:01
mentioned it, But I got thinking for whatever.
56:05
Oh, I was watching Little House on the Prairie and I was
56:08
thinking about the population on Earth at the time.
56:10
Little House on the Prairie was based not when it was filmed,
56:14
but when it was based around and looking at the population growth
56:18
just in like, you know, several 100 years.
56:22
First, only the last 100 years and it was like it over doubled,
56:28
just over doubled by a lot just in the last 100 years.
56:34
And so I was like holy moly. And then so I was like when then
56:37
I went down the rabbit hole of when is the population going to
56:41
decline pretty. Soon. 20802080 But you know how
56:45
many it is by by like 200,000 which is nothing in a world of
56:49
10 point I think 8 billion I think in the.
56:52
USI think in the US it'll it'll reduce sooner than that.
56:55
Yeah, maybe. But overall?
56:56
Worldwide, yeah. And so but, and I go down this
57:00
whole rabbit hole now to say that the population is massive.
57:07
So if you think there's a lot of hunters out there, I'm sorry,
57:10
but it's not in comparison to the people who don't hunt.
57:14
Well, that doesn't matter because what does matter is the
57:16
amount of hunters to the amount of public land we have to hunt
57:19
on. Again, you are freaking wrong
57:23
because it does matter. I don't care if you think
57:26
there's First off, we ain't actually getting out there and
57:29
hunting the percentage of public land that is available for you
57:33
to hunt. Get in your little Mazda and
57:35
drive your little ass to the next state.
57:39
Buy your out of state hunting license and don't be afraid to
57:42
actually hike a few more miles in then today than you did
57:45
yesterday. I'm sorry if it's not right off
57:47
your backyard that's public land because you're too lazy to go
57:51
out there and do it. And I'm not saying I go hike 25
57:54
miles every day that I go hunting, but you can add an
57:57
extra mile to get a little further.
57:59
It's not going to kill your legs or your health.
58:02
And so this whole complaint of there's too many hunters to the
58:06
amount of land that we have. No, you're just wrong.
58:08
You're just not getting in there to access it.
58:11
And then there's the, oh, well, it's, you know, blocked off by
58:14
all these laws. I don't care.
58:16
Even if you negate the land that's blocked off by private
58:18
land, there's still plenty of public land for your ass to get
58:21
out there and hunt on and not see another hunter for a week.
58:24
I have seen it. Well, there, there you have it.
58:28
OK, I. Will finish my rant.
58:31
Oh yeah, well, you're cut off. Thank you guys a lot for
58:35
