  Speaker 2: Mabel's your first year hunting in the state, in your

  Speaker 2: state that you live in. You need to be how
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: old to start hunting?
• 1:37
  Speaker 6: Ten?
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: How old are you ten?
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Okay? And then you can hunt how many years in
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Montana with your parents, with your dad before you need
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: to go do hunter's safety. It's a quiz show, Mabel.
• 1:51
  Speaker 6: I have no idea like thirteen.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: No, you can't hunt thirteen years with your dad too.
• 2:00
  Speaker 7: You can hunt two years as a mentor.
• 2:02
  Speaker 6: As a mentee, so this is my last year or
• 2:05
  Speaker 6: next year, first year? Okay, but I hunt squirrels with you.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is where it gets cold.
• 2:12
  Speaker 7: Okay, very good point, Very good point. Yeah, you don't
• 2:18
  Speaker 7: need it in Montana. You don't need a hunting license
• 2:20
  Speaker 7: or be any sort of age to hunt squirrels, rabbits,
• 2:24
  Speaker 7: what else, kyo.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Any non game animal? Yeah? Yeah, so you can hunt
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: in our state and every state's different. In our state,
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: you can begin hunting at ten for game animals like
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: let's say dear. You can begin hunting deer at ten.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: You can also hunt for two years with a mentor
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: before you have to take hunter safety. You just happen
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: to start your mentor hunting at the age of ten.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: But let's say you never hunted until the year twelve.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: You could still do two years with the mentor for
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: you had to do hunter safety. But since your kids
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: all started at the bottom end of the age bracket,
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: you can hunt two years with your dad and then
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: you got to do hunter safety.
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: So we'd have to do it one more.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Twelve you'll have yep, and I know you've done hunter safety.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: How'd that go?
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: It was pretty good. It took a while, but I
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: got through it.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: You cheated the system a little bit. Can you explain
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: that to people?
• 3:26
  Speaker 7: She doesn't look at it that way.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: Explain how you. I look at it like, you cheated
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: the system, But she's gonna ros he's going to cheat
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: the system.
• 3:34
  Speaker 7: Really, he just wants to know how you did it
• 3:38
  Speaker 7: without doing a field day. I think there's.
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: Virtual field days where you go around and they like
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: show you a video of how it would work, and
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: then you say like, oh, this is wrong, and there's
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: no really you're.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: Right around a virtual field day.
• 3:51
  Speaker 6: Yeah, So you don't really get quized in that part.
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: It's just kind of like a you pick an answer.
• 3:55
  Speaker 6: You don't have to in those video says if you're
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: right or wrong. But some people probably don't care about
• 3:59
  Speaker 6: that and just skipped it the entire thing because there's
• 4:01
  Speaker 6: like three seconds on all the videos that are like
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: five minutes long.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you do.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: Do you think you'd be able to skip it all
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: and still pass?
• 4:10
  Speaker 7: We heard the first hand story.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: Do you hear my story?
• 4:13
  Speaker 7: My buddy another buddy, Steven, whose daughter was just watching
• 4:17
  Speaker 7: funny Cat videos as that because you know how they
• 4:20
  Speaker 7: put the little timer on there right so you can't
• 4:21
  Speaker 7: just click all the way through. And then she went
• 4:23
  Speaker 7: to take the test and she failed. She had to
• 4:26
  Speaker 7: do the whole thing again.
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: My boy, funny Cat videos.
• 4:30
  Speaker 7: You guys gotta love those.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: You you guys know, you guys know, of course, you know.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: And Hunt with James when James had to do Hunters
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: when he had to do his archery certificate, okay, uh,
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: he did a hunter safety where you go do the
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: actual not virtual field day with the actual field day.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: He needs to go get his archery certificate and he
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: comes in and it's all online and he comes in
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: and tells me that he failed the archery certification thing
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: by like a point and I'm living. So I sit
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: down with them and do it and me and him fail,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: and I don't know, man, maybe we really have to
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: go look at the stuff because what they it's so
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: poorly written that it's like it's has stuff like what
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: is a piece of archery equipment you can do without
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: stabilizer fingertabs? It was, you know, and you're like, well
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: that's so subjective. It was like what's the best cookie?
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: You know, They're like nope, wrong, and uh a question
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: about how long should you wait before you start blood trailing? Right?
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: But you got it, you know, it's not what work.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: It's sort of you just got to go with what
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: was in the thing. It's a bad experience.
• 5:43
  Speaker 7: Yeah, they're not getting a lot of context around those questions.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so maybe you got it done, hattie. Have you
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: had to do hunter safety yet?
• 5:52
  Speaker 8: I already did it yet?
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: Did you do the virtual or real field day?
• 5:56
  Speaker 8: The real field day?
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: You did? What happened down there?
• 6:00
  Speaker 8: Uh, you kind of got like showed around and then
• 6:02
  Speaker 8: you practiced different shooting positions on like clay birdies, and
• 6:06
  Speaker 8: then you practiced using a shotgun, and then you went
• 6:10
  Speaker 8: through a bunch of like other things like passing through
• 6:12
  Speaker 8: a barbed wire fence and like practice like.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: When you throw your gun over then climb through.
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: Was it boring though?
• 6:22
  Speaker 8: It was kind of boring and it dragged on, but
• 6:25

  Speaker 2: six year old boy and you're taking all this in
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: I am yeah.
• 10:47
  Speaker 9: It's loving hearing you guys and hearing how excited your
• 10:51
  Speaker 9: kids are to be out there, because I'm pumped. I
• 10:53
  Speaker 9: got four more years.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I've had. So the way it works is because
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: we can do youth season. Our youth season just this
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: year was well, every year, our youth season in Montana
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: is two days long, depending on the calendar. We had
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: a couple of years where they kind of lined it
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: up with some days like when.
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: Teachers are off beautiful good so they.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: Don't have to miss as much school. They still got
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: to play a little hooky, but not as much hookey
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: as they would have to otherwise. And then for the
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: last couple of years though, the youth season lined up
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: with General so we could just yeah, we could just
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: roll right into General. And we've had good luck killing
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: bucks like in the general season because you can work
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: the kinks out for the two day youth season.
• 11:35
  Speaker 7: Because youth day youth season is Thursday Friday, and then
• 11:39
  Speaker 7: General would open on Saturday.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: But this year they separated again. Now they're separate by
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: a week, and so we had our youth season this
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: year was two days long.
• 11:49
  Speaker 9: Yeah, you guys were youth hunting during archery season.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they was so off that it was yeah, we
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: even saw. Yeah, there was people bow hunting while we
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: were youth hunting. But we got our crew. We had
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: six hunters, and how many bucks did we get?
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: Guys six six six, But one o'clock on day two.
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: Everybody like, well not know, most people got a buck
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: at like around that time.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: It was I got all four of you girls killed
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: box within like ten minutes.
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: I know about those were the biggest ones.
• 12:25
  Speaker 8: I got the award for the smallest one.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: You get the smallest bucke, smallest buck. Hey, I got
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: a question for you, Haddie. You uh went out. So

  Speaker 2: You got a meal your buck. L Sorry, you got
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: a meal your buck last year. This year, I want
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: to get into your head a little bit on this.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: This year you went on the first day of the season.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: My understanding is you passed up a four.
• 12:52
  Speaker 8: Ky mm hmmm because there was a big buck at
• 12:55
  Speaker 8: the top of the hill and I wanted that one
• 12:57
  Speaker 8: over at four ki.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: That's what was going on? Okay, the second day you
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: came in with a porky. Okay, walk me through what
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: happened there, Like, walk me through your mind, your thought.
• 13:09
  Speaker 8: Process the first day that I passed it up, both
• 13:14
  Speaker 8: the evolution of your thoughts. Oh well, my dad and
• 13:17
  Speaker 8: I were glassing and we looked and there was like
• 13:20
  Speaker 8: a huge buck at the top of this spot and
• 13:26
  Speaker 8: I don't know what's called, but and then I was like,
• 13:28
  Speaker 8: let's go up there. And he probably like just bedded
• 13:31
  Speaker 8: down in like that shady ravened kind of spot, you
• 13:36
  Speaker 8: can say that kind of stuff. And uh so we
• 13:40
  Speaker 8: were hiking up the hill and my dad tells me
• 13:43
  Speaker 8: to sit down because he thought he saw it. He
• 13:45
  Speaker 8: saw a bunch of doughs that we I think we flushed.
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: I didn't curse at you, no, Yeah.
• 13:52
  Speaker 8: And then and he like came down to me and
• 13:57
  Speaker 8: was like, there's a there's a buck right there. And
• 14:00
  Speaker 8: I was like, is it a forky? And he said yeah,
• 14:03
  Speaker 8: And then it came broadside for like a minute. So
• 14:05
  Speaker 8: I had like the like I didn't have like five
• 14:08
  Speaker 8: minutes to think about shooting it or not. I'd like,
• 14:10
  Speaker 8: right then and there shoot it. And I passed it
• 14:14
  Speaker 8: up because I felt like really rushed and I didn't
• 14:16
  Speaker 8: have enough time and I wasn't in that good position,
• 14:20
  Speaker 8: and I really wanted to get the huge buck we
• 14:22
  Speaker 8: saw on the top of.
• 14:23
  Speaker 7: The totally understood what makes you want to kill a big,
• 14:27
  Speaker 7: huge buck for the fun of it.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: I don't know, show that counselor they look at that
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: bad boy. Uh So then the next day you go
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: out and your thought changed. M last by this point,
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: last second season.
• 14:45
  Speaker 8: Yeah, And I was like, I wasn't gonna be picky
• 14:47
  Speaker 8: because then I saw other people shot four kies, so
• 14:50
  Speaker 8: I would I would have been like fine if I
• 14:52
  Speaker 8: shot one because other kids got one. So then I like,
• 14:57
  Speaker 8: I also said, like, first thing in the morning, I'm
• 14:59
  Speaker 8: not going to be so if I see a buck,
• 15:01
  Speaker 8: I'll shoot it.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 15:03
  Speaker 7: I think it would be okay. Even if everybody else
• 15:05
  Speaker 7: killed three pointers and you kill the four ki, it'd
• 15:07
  Speaker 7: still be.
• 15:08
  Speaker 8: Okay as long as you got a deer.
• 15:11
  Speaker 7: That's right. Yeah, they all taste the name.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Maybe you got your first buck, yeah, okay, tell us
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: tell us about that buck. How big was that buck?
• 15:19
  Speaker 8: He was a four back four.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Corky perked right up there now, Cory's card is one
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: where you're a hunt. Yeah, okay, tell what happened there?
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: I mean, I don't know, my dad, we like army
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: crawled on our like, you know, like on our hands
• 15:41
  Speaker 6: and knees.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: For something must have happened before that. You wouldn't just
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: be crawling out of camp.
• 15:45
  Speaker 6: We like, so we you know, took off from camp
• 15:50
  Speaker 6: and we were just hiking for I don't know, like ever, yeah,
• 15:53
  Speaker 6: a lot of time. And then I feel like my
• 15:57
  Speaker 6: dad he just sees he sees some doughs like on
• 16:02
  Speaker 6: the top of the ridge kind of up there.
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: Uh huh.
• 16:04
  Speaker 6: They were like on a ridge a finger that was
• 16:06
  Speaker 6: coming down into like this valley hilly sort of place.
• 16:11
  Speaker 6: And so we just like, you know, we're just sitting
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: down and glassing for a minute. And then we decided, well,
• 16:17
  Speaker 6: let's like get a little bit closer to the dough
• 16:19
  Speaker 6: so that if a buck pops up over there, then
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: we can be ready and be able to be like
• 16:24
  Speaker 6: set up on on the doe so that if a
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: buck is with them, then we can get that.
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: I gotta I gotta bring your sister into this little
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: bit because you guys are together. Yeah, okay, So so
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: you two are hunt with your dad. You guys are
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: hunting as a three pack?
• 16:39
  Speaker 8: Yeah?
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: Have you two at this point because you see these doughs,
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: but you guys are both packing guns, right?
• 16:47
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: Have you guys at this point? How have you guys determined?
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: Like who's up? Who's first?
• 16:54
  Speaker 6: I got the first shot for the first day, and
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: so we decided that it'd be better if she got
• 16:58
  Speaker 6: the shot for the second day, because why would you.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: Get the first shot for the first day because you've
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: already hunted and killed it. Huh, this is your idea.
• 17:07
  Speaker 7: No, you guys should explain this because people are gonna wonder.
• 17:10
  Speaker 6: We also kind of agreed that I have got into
• 17:14
  Speaker 6: turkeys and more squirrels than her, so she should get
• 17:17
  Speaker 6: the buck shot. I don't know how that works, but
• 17:21
  Speaker 6: we decided that. And then like the first day, we
• 17:25
  Speaker 6: were just kind of all hunting together and you know,
• 17:27
  Speaker 6: because that's we're all together, and you know, she would
• 17:30
  Speaker 6: she had she had her shot and.
• 17:32
  Speaker 7: Stuff, and then she had an opportunity.
• 17:35
  Speaker 6: She had an opportunity, and then she was just dry firing.
• 17:39
  Speaker 7: A little bit and the buck slipped away.
• 17:41
  Speaker 6: Yeah, the buck, it wasn't spooked by us, but it
• 17:44
  Speaker 6: just slipped away.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: I know when you were dry firing, I mean you
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: were like you were getting ready for the shot. Yeah,
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: that's a good trick.
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: It's uncomfortable.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a really good trick when you can afford
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: just get so shaky. Yeah, I got you.
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 17:55
  Speaker 6: But then second day we decided it would be mine because.
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: Because you stabbed up abbles and yeah, I guess.
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: But yeah we had I had the shot second day, and.
• 18:10
  Speaker 7: Well, so we're on our way to try to get
• 18:13
  Speaker 7: in there near those dos. Oh no, we actually got
• 18:16
  Speaker 7: on those doughs.
• 18:17
  Speaker 6: Yes, we were on the dose and I was, I
• 18:19
  Speaker 6: was set up and my sister was like behind a
• 18:21
  Speaker 6: sage brush bush and and then uh we saw on
• 18:27
  Speaker 6: the ridge line two bucks, a four by four and
• 18:33
  Speaker 6: a two by three on the ridge line, and they
• 18:35
  Speaker 6: were coming down. Well first they were just like looking
• 18:38
  Speaker 6: around in the valley searching for like danger, So we
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: just stayed really really still, and then they were just
• 18:44
  Speaker 6: like they decided, I mean, I guess they decided they
• 18:47
  Speaker 6: were gonna come down into the valley. So we decided
• 18:51
  Speaker 6: we should like go around the hill like behind it
• 18:54
  Speaker 6: so that no, no deer sauce and nothing would be
• 18:57
  Speaker 6: like spooked. So we were just army crawling, like up
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: to the next hill or maybe next.
• 19:03
  Speaker 7: Were you army crawling?
• 19:04
  Speaker 8: I mean, I don't know.
• 19:05
  Speaker 6: I was kind of crawling on my knees because.
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: Well, as long as you kept lower than him.
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: I mean I am lower than him because I mean
• 19:13
  Speaker 6: I'm just like smaller human. But I did try to
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: do on my on my feet and it was just
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: like like I don't know, I don't know what to
• 19:22
  Speaker 6: call that crouching.
• 19:23
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it's like it's like walking in a squat position,
• 19:26
  Speaker 7: which is the classic thing that everybody likes to do
• 19:29
  Speaker 7: when you tell him we're crawling, now stay low. I
• 19:33
  Speaker 7: don't know.
• 19:34
  Speaker 4: It's harder to because then you just won't stand up,
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: and it's easier to just stand up.
• 19:37
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't know why.
• 19:38
  Speaker 8: I mean I I was still lower.
• 19:39
  Speaker 9: Than my dad's So did you have to watch out
• 19:41
  Speaker 9: for cactus?
• 19:42
  Speaker 8: Oh?
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: Yes, Oh it's lot.
• 19:47
  Speaker 5: It's bad. There's a lot of cactuses.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: That part of the park full cactus. Okay, so go on.
• 19:57
  Speaker 6: So we were army crawling for a and then we
• 20:01
  Speaker 6: like kind of came up around like a hill and
• 20:05
  Speaker 6: there was like sagebrush around us. My dad tried to
• 20:08
  Speaker 6: help me get some grass out of the way of
• 20:10
  Speaker 6: my like, you know.
• 20:11
  Speaker 7: My shooting your shooting lane, yeah, my.
• 20:14
  Speaker 6: Shooting lane, and we were both set up. I was
• 20:19
  Speaker 6: like up a little bit higher on the hill, my
• 20:21
  Speaker 6: sister was, my dad was between us, and then my
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: sister was a little bit lower on the hill, and
• 20:25
  Speaker 6: there was like a road going by us, like on
• 20:29
  Speaker 6: the other side of the hill. And then you know,
• 20:31
  Speaker 6: we're just washing the bucks. I could not find the
• 20:35
  Speaker 6: bucks anywhere because my dad said, oh, they're at the
• 20:38
  Speaker 6: tip of the sage brush, and I was like, well,
• 20:41
  Speaker 6: there's a lot of sagebrush here. I didn't say this,
• 20:43
  Speaker 6: but I was like, there's a lot of sage brush here.
• 20:45
  Speaker 6: I have no idea what sage brush you're talking about.
• 20:48
  Speaker 6: And then finally he had to just look into my
• 20:50
  Speaker 6: gun for me find them, and then hold the gun
• 20:52
  Speaker 6: for me so I could get behind him. Yeah, and
• 20:57
  Speaker 6: my sister had actually called the bigger buck, which was
• 21:00
  Speaker 6: the four by four, But because I guess the bigger
• 21:03
  Speaker 6: buck had been doing a lot more broadside, like standing broadside,
• 21:07
  Speaker 6: a lot more than the two by three, my sister,
• 21:10
  Speaker 6: because she's so nice, decided to give me the bigger one,
• 21:13
  Speaker 6: because I was like, let's just get they run away,
• 21:16
  Speaker 6: I'll feel even worse. And then my so I just
• 21:20
  Speaker 6: I was, you know, set up on the bigger one
• 21:23
  Speaker 6: and on the road beside us, like I don't know,
• 21:27
  Speaker 6: I guess a group of cows had been like walking
• 21:30
  Speaker 6: and yeah, and they were like going over the hill.
• 21:34
  Speaker 6: But then they were all staring at us the entire
• 21:39
  Speaker 6: and I was so scared that the bucks were gonna
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: look at the cows and then try and look at us.
• 21:44
  Speaker 6: And oh that was like the cows were just staring
• 21:46
  Speaker 6: at us the entire time. But then it was, I
• 21:48
  Speaker 6: guess easy to forget about them because then just like
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: looking at the bucks.
• 21:53
  Speaker 8: Uh.
• 21:54
  Speaker 6: But then I, you know, like took my shot, and
• 21:57
  Speaker 6: I think I shot my dad. I moved away from
• 22:01
  Speaker 6: the scope like after I shot, so I had no
• 22:05
  Speaker 6: idea where my buck was because I still didn't know
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: where on the hillside my buck actually was. I just
• 22:11
  Speaker 6: had no I knew that in the scope that was
• 22:13
  Speaker 6: my buck. So I had shot him and I shot
• 22:17
  Speaker 6: him dead, and then he just he rolled down the
• 22:19
  Speaker 6: hill somewhere. We actually did have a little bit of
• 22:23
  Speaker 6: a hard time finding him later, but like maybe five
• 22:27
  Speaker 6: seconds after my shot in a shot. Her shot was
• 22:32
  Speaker 6: a little bit low because my dad's range finder had
• 22:35
  Speaker 6: lost all of its battery.
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: Sour.
• 22:43
  Speaker 6: But yeah, like we shot like two seconds after each other. Yeah,
• 22:49
  Speaker 6: and then maybe like maybe two minutes later, I think
• 22:53
  Speaker 6: I shot again to shot to shoot hers, and I
• 22:56
  Speaker 6: got the glory of watching hers fall down the hill.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: Very kids are laughing too, right, Yeah. Do you guys,
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: when you're telling stories, when the gun goes off, you
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: go bouch likes, No, you know about that?
• 23:09
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, we knew that.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: If you're a Latvian and a Laban hunting story, a
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: gun doesn't go bang or it goes bouch.
• 23:18
  Speaker 6: I mean my dad. My dad has that written on
• 23:22
  Speaker 6: his orange.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: A lot of laughs about that, bouch.
• 23:26
  Speaker 6: Yeah, but I guess I have never said that in
• 23:28
  Speaker 6: a story.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: Can you start? Please?
• 23:31
  Speaker 8: Wait?
• 23:31
  Speaker 6: What? Oh?
• 23:32
  Speaker 8: Okay?
• 23:34
  Speaker 6: But yeah, I shot and then we just you know,
• 23:38
  Speaker 6: stood there for a minute. My dad like slapped us
• 23:40
  Speaker 6: on the back a lot, because kind of what he
• 23:43
  Speaker 6: does with animals.
• 23:46
  Speaker 8: And then.
• 23:48
  Speaker 6: I don't know, we got up and got all our stuff.
• 23:51
  Speaker 6: We had actually left our backpacks kind of back there
• 23:53
  Speaker 6: like where we had been set up on the dose.
• 23:56
  Speaker 6: So we had to go back and get those because
• 23:57
  Speaker 6: you know, army crawling is kind of hard with also
• 23:59
  Speaker 6: like a big backpipe on, and my backpack is blue,
• 24:02
  Speaker 6: which I'm pretty sure is a color that the deer
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: can see, and it's like a bright blue, so you know,
• 24:08
  Speaker 6: I left that behind. Yeah, but then we went and
• 24:10
  Speaker 6: grabbed those, and then we're just walking up the hill
• 24:12
  Speaker 6: to find our bucks. As was found pretty easily because
• 24:15
  Speaker 6: you know, like me and my dad both saw that
• 24:17
  Speaker 6: one fall down, but ours mine was a little bit
• 24:21
  Speaker 6: higher up, so I had to look for that one
• 24:22
  Speaker 6: a little bit. But yeah, we we found him in
• 24:27
  Speaker 6: the end, and then we like butchered him and we're.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: Gonna come back. We're gonna come back to the butchm Park,
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: trust me. Okay, Rosie, can we move in? You know
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: we've been teasing rosiebout set up, set up, Boddy, so
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: you buy your mic. Okay, we've been teasing Rosie. We
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: periodically remember this and then teaser about it for a
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: few days. When she was real little.
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: Oh no no, no, no no no no no no no.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: When she was real little, we were out squirrel hunting
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: and uh and uh, and all of a sudden, I
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: look and she is little oh three, yeah.
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, better include that part in the store.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: And she's back there.
• 25:04
  Speaker 7: You weren't. You weren't carrying it.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: She was just combing the cruising along behind us, you know.
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: And we now and then look see what happened during
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: she's back to going spitting spitting something now. And she
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: had thought she had found some deer ship and thought
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: it was like a little chocolate No.
• 25:25
  Speaker 7: I thought that was only a jump that happened in
• 25:27
  Speaker 7: real life. Yeah, that's an old guy. She thought.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: She thought it was like a little chocolate nugget or
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: something on the ground. They were like, what happened Rosie?
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: What is that she was she had found that deer
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: poot was like someone dropped her candy dropped there raising it.
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: So never remember that we teased Rosie about it. So Rose,
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: this is your second buck, right yep? Okay? And then
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: you got your first buck last year, but not during
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: youth season. What happened during youth season.
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: Happened?
• 25:58
  Speaker 5: Oh okay. So jimmy my older brother, had shot a
• 26:04
  Speaker 5: doe and my dad Pinky promised me that the next
• 26:08
  Speaker 5: deer that we got in this mystery place that we
• 26:10
  Speaker 5: were hunting would be mine the next year that we
• 26:13
  Speaker 5: saw like the next year that we could get it's mine.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: And there's that was the Rannella family's last meal deer dough.
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: We were now or on a more there's a moratorium
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: on meal der doe killing in the Renella household.
• 26:30
  Speaker 5: So after Jimmy shot his dough, we went and started
• 26:37
  Speaker 5: looking and we got down in this little area to
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: glass and there was quite a bit of fossils in
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: this area, and I was I was a little more
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: interested in the fossils than the deer.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: And I was very pissed.
• 26:48
  Speaker 5: He was not happy with me.
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: Hespective on this a little bit.
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: Yes, the fossils were in the worst skylit part of
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: the day, so I'm trying to train them to when
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: you get to a crest, we slip over very quickly
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: over the top nestle into some brush and glass. So
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: I'm like, you know, okay, I'm gonna go over night
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: over the top nestle into some brush. And these two
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: get right up on the skyline and then low the
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: behold fossils. So we found I get down, I'm like
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: a weird I did the whole thing, yell and whisper.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: We heard hot we.
• 27:34
  Speaker 5: Right, yeah, and I said he he was like, okay, well,
• 27:38
  Speaker 5: if there's a do that comes by to your fall,
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: I'm not going to feel sorry for you like you can.
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: He's like, fine, you know, go look at the fossils.
• 27:45
  Speaker 6: Because I had seen this one in particular, fossil that
• 27:48
  Speaker 6: I didn't I stupidly didn't.
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: Pick up, and then I wanted to find it again.
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: But right as me and my brother are on the skyline.
• 27:55
  Speaker 6: Looking for fossils, a humongous for or by for pops
• 28:02
  Speaker 6: right up in this little like goalie staring.
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: At your like like how many yards away?
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: Like a hundred yards.
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: It is staring at.
• 28:10
  Speaker 5: You so big, and well, you know, the whole thing
• 28:14
  Speaker 5: happens when my dad like get over here. So we
• 28:16
  Speaker 5: get set up on it, and he's already gone by
• 28:18
  Speaker 5: that point. He was not having any of it.
• 28:22
  Speaker 6: And then my dad's all mad and I'm like, well,
• 28:23
  Speaker 6: we can go find it again, and he's like, we're
• 28:25
  Speaker 6: not going to find that thing again.
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: So we start hiking up the little we started tracking it.
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: Yes, we started tracking it, and in front of us
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: probably like how many yards then like three three hundred
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: yards maybe, No, it's just like, oh, three I.
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: Mean he just got up at our feet.
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, we followed him.
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: I thought it was pretty far away and when he
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: jumped up.
• 28:48
  Speaker 6: And.
• 28:50
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I thought he was far away.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: No, he was like under us.
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: Well he like.
• 28:56
  Speaker 5: Popped out of nowhere, and my brother just takes out
• 28:59
  Speaker 5: his rifle and shoots him, and broadside or anything. He
• 29:05
  Speaker 5: just like shot him in the neck and got him.
• 29:08
  Speaker 5: And I was not happy. I I was not happy
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: with my dad. I was giving everybody the silent treatment
• 29:15
  Speaker 5: because that big buck was supposed to be mine. So
• 29:18
  Speaker 5: I was waiting in this little on this little side
• 29:21
  Speaker 5: of a little mountain, and while they tried to find
• 29:24
  Speaker 5: this deer. Thirty minutes later, they're like, we cannot find it.
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: We need your help. We're gonna go look. So we
• 29:29
  Speaker 5: blood trail it and we find it and it's it's
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: dead and it's really big. And I am still not
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: very happy.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: But yeah, so I always say it's not you your
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: season until someone cries, hey, that is not.
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: And so yeah, he got that, and then I learned
• 29:50
  Speaker 5: to be happy for him because he was really happy
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: it was he got a really nice buck. Then I
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: ended up getting one. I don't even know where I
• 29:57
  Speaker 5: ended up getting one. But that place was called Our.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: Friends Our Friends Friends Ranch.
• 30:03
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I got a nice three by three there.
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: But then this year came around.
• 30:11
  Speaker 5: Am I supposed to tell the story of this year.
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: I'll see it up a little bit. We went up,
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: we got to our looking nob. No, I'm just setting
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: setting scene, you can tell. We got to our looking knob.
• 30:22
  Speaker 5: And and we see these two Wait, where are we
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: starting from in this story?
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: Like after I spotted the party meadow?
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: Oh okay, okay. So we had been chasing these two
• 30:39
  Speaker 5: deer and we got up on a skyline and they
• 30:41
  Speaker 5: were there, but they were like far away. I wasn't
• 30:43
  Speaker 5: zoomed in. I was not ready to shoot it at all.
• 30:47
  Speaker 5: So they ended up running away. And then all of
• 30:49
  Speaker 5: a sudden, deer started coming out of nowhere.
• 30:51
  Speaker 7: You know what we now know?
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: You know what spooked them? What was? Oh?
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: Tell us girls shooting shooting scared.
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: And they didn't even know where shots came from. We
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: were like, we're watching them, and all a sudden, you
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: and they just got up, like the does got up
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: and were looking over and they just started milling around
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: and milled off. Its just it was enough to Yeah,
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: they were I mean I mean she got up and
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: she just like it was it was a ricochet sound,
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: and she just got uneasy and want to leave you.
• 31:25
  Speaker 5: But yeah, so I was I had one of the
• 31:28
  Speaker 5: bucks in my scope, but like I wasn't zoomed in.
• 31:30
  Speaker 5: I just wasn't ready. Then they got spooked and deer
• 31:32
  Speaker 5: were coming out of nowhere. But they were everywhere like
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: there was bucks just like almost seemed like they were
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: running out of the hills. Yeah, there's so many of them,
• 31:40
  Speaker 5: and they all ran into this one little meadow that
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: we called the party meadow because all the big bucks
• 31:45
  Speaker 5: were having a party there. So we end up starting
• 31:49
  Speaker 5: to follow this little We go on the side of
• 31:51
  Speaker 5: this little mountain. No, no, no, no, no.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: What we watched four bucks okay, name was the ones name?
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: Okay one one of the ones name was Houdini, And
• 32:05
  Speaker 5: there was.
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: Three bucks that we didn't name, and we watched them
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: until they bed down.
• 32:11
  Speaker 5: Okay, so there's a bunch of us.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: Did what when they batted down? And what did we do?
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: We walked, well, no, not before we what we identified
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: where what our shooting perch was going.
• 32:26
  Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, so we we found we from this ridgeline.
• 32:31
  Speaker 5: We found a good place to get set up on
• 32:33
  Speaker 5: that we.
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: Knew where we had three bucks bedded, and we knew
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: what our our shooting perch was, right, and we even
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: like dropped little pins on the map. We think they're there.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: We're trying to get here. Yeah, So and then we
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: started walking.
• 32:47
  Speaker 5: Now we start walking on this little side of the
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: mountain where they can't where the deer can't see us,
• 32:52
  Speaker 5: and I end up finding in deer shed and we
• 32:57
  Speaker 5: see this really really old dough just like betted down
• 33:01
  Speaker 5: in this nice little shady area.
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: Don't tell everybody what we called her. Oh yeah, you
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: didn't tell anybody, I know, but.
• 33:08
  Speaker 5: I almost did. Well I didn't almost, I didn't almost,
• 33:13
  Speaker 5: but like yeah, so we see this really old dough
• 33:20
  Speaker 5: and we're like worried because we need to get We
• 33:22
  Speaker 5: need to like kind of go near her to get
• 33:24
  Speaker 5: to where we're trying to go. But we're worried that
• 33:26
  Speaker 5: she's going to scare the deer in the party meadow,
• 33:29
  Speaker 5: so we like take our chances. We're like, well, it's
• 33:31
  Speaker 5: gonna get hot, so we should probably get going over
• 33:34
  Speaker 5: to these deer, So we take our chances. She does
• 33:36
  Speaker 5: end up spooking and then she ends up spooking another
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: buck that we didn't even know about. But he was
• 33:43
  Speaker 5: gone so fast, like.
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: They didn't blow through. They didn't they go.
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: Through where we were trying to get.
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: They didn't spook our bucks.
• 33:50
  Speaker 5: So we find our little perch and army crawl over
• 33:54
  Speaker 5: to well it wasn't even army crawl because we were
• 33:56
  Speaker 5: so close to them.
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: We had to snakes.
• 33:59
  Speaker 5: Yes, we had to be very very very careful. We
• 34:02
  Speaker 5: had to be very very careful because they I think
• 34:06
  Speaker 5: it's really easy for them to spook. And so we're
• 34:10
  Speaker 5: in this little part where I don't know. Somehow my
• 34:14
  Speaker 5: dad sees a bunch of antlers poking up, but I
• 34:16
  Speaker 5: do not see those, so I take it. Takes a
• 34:19
  Speaker 5: little time to find them, but they're all bedded down,
• 34:23
  Speaker 5: and I'm lined up on the biggest one because you know,
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: why just take this moment when you can up the
• 34:29
  Speaker 5: big one and the other one that I'm not another
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: nice one stands up and I'm not even on him.
• 34:36
  Speaker 5: So I get on him and I cannot see his
• 34:38
  Speaker 5: shoulder blade because of the glare in the sun.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: I want to clarify this point too. Okay, we're talking.
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: I'm saying now, remember where you're gonna shoot it. I said,
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: you got to see that, you know, you see the
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: back of the shoulder, that little crease, so right in
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: that crease, halfway up and down, And when the deer
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: stands up, there's nothing in front of it. But she's saying,
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: I can't see it shoulder, So I can't figure out
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: what she must be looking at, like she sees some
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: other deer. But I realized, tell what you meant when
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: you said you can't see its.
• 35:08
  Speaker 5: Shoulder, Like there was a glare in the sun where
• 35:11
  Speaker 5: the whole deer looked like this dark gray color. So
• 35:14
  Speaker 5: I couldn't like see it.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: You couldn't see the actual please, So.
• 35:18
  Speaker 8: I was like.
• 35:19
  Speaker 5: My dad was like, just like try your best. Just
• 35:21
  Speaker 5: think about, like, think about where you're gonna need to
• 35:24
  Speaker 5: shoot it. So I took my best guess, and I
• 35:26
  Speaker 5: ended up shooting it in the right place.
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: We'll tell him what happened to it, what was missing
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: out of it? It's heart, Yeah, I believe the bottom
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: right off the heart nice.
• 35:37
  Speaker 5: So yeah, And we waited a little bit ate, some
• 35:40
  Speaker 5: lunch got over there, and we couldn't find him for
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: about like five minutes, and my dad was making me
• 35:46
  Speaker 5: feel very doubtful about finding him. I was like, are
• 35:49
  Speaker 5: we gonna find He.
• 35:49
  Speaker 8: Was like, I don't know.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: It was just too many, it's too many questions.
• 35:53
  Speaker 5: Hey, no, but you did say that. You can't deny
• 35:55
  Speaker 5: that I did.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: But I knew it was in there somewhere, but I
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: couldn't figure out where it was. So I just like,
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: just give me a second. And it was laying right there,
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: tall sage brush.
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: Our friend showed us where like he found the deer,
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: Jeremy Romero. Yeah, and we all went over there and
• 36:14
  Speaker 5: he was actually like bigger than we thought he was.
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was telling Rosie. Normally they get small when
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: you find him. You never find a bucket. He's bigger.
• 36:22
  Speaker 9: He thought he was ground shrinkage.
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we had ground growage.
• 36:27
  Speaker 5: He did not look that big from when I was
• 36:29
  Speaker 5: lined up on him, but he was. He's actually like
• 36:31
  Speaker 5: a really nice three by three.
• 36:35
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: Great. Now, Butchering, what you guys take on butcher And
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: you want to start out just your general impressions of Butchering.
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: I personally really love Butchering. I find it very satisfied.
• 36:50
  Speaker 7: You got to get on the mic.
• 36:52
  Speaker 6: Sorry, very like order a lot orderly and satisfying to
• 36:57
  Speaker 6: just get it all chopped up and stuff like.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: You appreciate you appreciate the orderly in this up. Help
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: me understand what you mean with orderly.
• 37:05
  Speaker 6: I don't know, it's just very like I personally find
• 37:08
  Speaker 6: skinning animals very very satisfying, which is probably pretty weird.
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: But do you do you appreciate that there's like step one,
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: step two, step three. Is that that's orderly?
• 37:19
  Speaker 6: Yeah, there's like the things you do and then it
• 37:22
  Speaker 6: like just all kind of falls into place for the
• 37:25
  Speaker 6: end result.
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: Do you enjoy cooking it?
• 37:29
  Speaker 7: Yeah?
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: Cooking really fun.
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: So you like that too?
• 37:33
  Speaker 7: Yeah? Have you cooked any any meat?
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: Yes?
• 37:36
  Speaker 7: Yeah? Yeah when I'm gone.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you guys help out in the kitchen, but.
• 37:41
  Speaker 4: Not when he's here. He's our personal chef. When he's home,
• 37:44
  Speaker 4: he can do it all.
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: Mabel, what did you think about that? Was this your
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: first butchering job?
• 37:49
  Speaker 6: Yes, I mean other than kind of like Scuross, But
• 37:53
  Speaker 6: I do not like butchering even a little bit.
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: You don't like you know, I don't like this.
• 38:00
  Speaker 6: Mells.
• 38:02
  Speaker 4: We're getting dirty.
• 38:04
  Speaker 8: I don't know.
• 38:04
  Speaker 6: It's like if you like, once you get blood on
• 38:07
  Speaker 6: your hands, everything sticks to your hands and then like
• 38:11
  Speaker 6: a smell of the stomach and then yeah.
• 38:15
  Speaker 9: Did you notice that your farts smell like the guts? Afterwards?
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: I mean I feel like I had like called maybe.
• 38:23
  Speaker 6: I don't know, like I don't I don't normally try
• 38:26
  Speaker 6: to smell my farts, but I guess it.
• 38:31
  Speaker 7: Happens on accident.
• 38:32
  Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, but I don't like butchering, especially like
• 38:37
  Speaker 6: the stomach, and that it smells really really bad.
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: When she gets done. Before she leaves, she needs to
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: cut the stomach open. Yes, which is the boringest stomach
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: in the world. She thinks there's gonna be something in there,
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: like a like a mouse or something. It's just chewed
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: up grass.
• 38:54
  Speaker 5: Well, I don't think that there's gonna be something in there.
• 38:56
  Speaker 5: I just like I want to think that there's also
• 38:59
  Speaker 5: how do you have some stuff to finish off a
• 39:00
  Speaker 5: dear story too?
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: Oh we'll get Yeah, we're getting there where we leave
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: it with your dear story?
• 39:07
  Speaker 8: After my dad told me to get down from the
• 39:09
  Speaker 8: top of the hill.
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: Oh, we didn't finish the getting it deer. No, ok,
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: maybe finished telling us about how you don't like it. Well,
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: I realized we missed the end of the deer story
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: the job. Thanks for reminding me you don't want nothing
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: to do.
• 39:24
  Speaker 6: I mean, I like, it's like cool because I know that,
• 39:27
  Speaker 6: like I'm gonna eat it, and it like tastes really
• 39:29
  Speaker 6: good when I ate it, of course, but like it
• 39:32
  Speaker 6: it's never been like the thing. And then when you're
• 39:37
  Speaker 6: carrying it back, like there's just like the juice everywhere,
• 39:41
  Speaker 6: and like there's just like such juices everywhere you look,
• 39:45
  Speaker 6: except for the fact that the one thing that I
• 39:47
  Speaker 6: really liked about butchering is I brought up the idea
• 39:51
  Speaker 6: of hot buttered buck nuts and bringing those back to camp,
• 39:54
  Speaker 6: which was still that was the whole thing.
• 39:56
  Speaker 8: Yeah, that's a lot.
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: What I recommend that as you as to get older,
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: you and your sister continue to hunt together because you're
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: gonna have a hell of a time with the butchering.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: But if she likes but yeah, it's like Jack Spratt
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: would eat no fat, his wife would eat no lean.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: So someday make a poem like that about you, and I.
• 40:14
  Speaker 7: Know, yeah, probably you're a good leg holder.
• 40:18
  Speaker 6: Like I don't really care, but like I don't like
• 40:20
  Speaker 6: want to like stick my hands in its guts. I
• 40:23
  Speaker 6: don't like that I get your pretty close dirty Hey, okay,
• 40:26
  Speaker 6: you put you actually put blood on my vants.
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, that's all right.
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: Maybe you'll grow into it, maybe you won't. I don't know.
• 40:35
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't know.
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: That's good though. Okay, so hattie, I'm sorry. We didn't
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: get to the we didn't get to I don't know
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: what that was bad hosting. We didn't we didn't get
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: to the buck. Okay, so there we are. Your dad's
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: screaming and yelling at you.
• 40:47
  Speaker 8: It was like, okay, but by the way, sorry for
• 40:52
  Speaker 8: sorry dad for bringing for Steve bringing that up. But
• 40:58
  Speaker 8: after he did that, he told me to get down
• 41:00
  Speaker 8: and then he started like glassing and trying to find it.
• 41:04
  Speaker 8: And then he said get over here, and then he
• 41:07
  Speaker 8: found it. So he was like, take your backpack off
• 41:11
  Speaker 8: and put it in this spot and carry the tripod.
• 41:16
  Speaker 8: So and he was like, we're gonna get to the
• 41:17
  Speaker 8: top of that hill and you're gonna army crawl all
• 41:20
  Speaker 8: the way up there. So we did, and then he
• 41:22
  Speaker 8: told me to set up the tripod. So I set
• 41:25
  Speaker 8: up the tripod and then he was like glassing it
• 41:29
  Speaker 8: trying to find it from there, and he was like,
• 41:32
  Speaker 8: we're busted. It sees us and I was like, where
• 41:34
  Speaker 8: is it?
• 41:35
  Speaker 3: I don't see it.
• 41:36
  Speaker 8: And then that went on for probably like six minutes
• 41:40
  Speaker 8: of me not being able to find my buck. When
• 41:42
  Speaker 8: I was staring right at us like one hundred yards
• 41:47
  Speaker 8: not bad, okay.
• 41:50
  Speaker 5: And.
• 41:52
  Speaker 8: Then I like find it. And then I was watching
• 41:56
  Speaker 8: it for a while and I didn't see it move,
• 42:01
  Speaker 8: but my dad didn't, and it moved broadside because it
• 42:04
  Speaker 8: like saw us move, so it was like, oh, I'm
• 42:06
  Speaker 8: out of here.
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: Got it?
• 42:07
  Speaker 8: So then he went up onto this like hill kind
• 42:10
  Speaker 8: of spot and went broadside, and my dad told me
• 42:13
  Speaker 8: he stood up, and I was like where, I don't
• 42:15
  Speaker 8: see it, And then I found his like white nose
• 42:19
  Speaker 8: and then went off of that and just moved and
• 42:21
  Speaker 8: right where I lined up his foot, I found his
• 42:24
  Speaker 8: foot and went up, and right as I got on
• 42:26
  Speaker 8: the top of his shoulder, I shot him. And I
• 42:29
  Speaker 8: thought he like ran forward, because that's what my last
• 42:31
  Speaker 8: buck did. He ran forward, but he actually felt ran
• 42:34
  Speaker 8: backwards and fell into this like ravine. So it took
• 42:38
  Speaker 8: us ten minutes to find him because he all was
• 42:40
  Speaker 8: like clumped up in like a doughnut.
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: He was he was hidden away in there.
• 42:46
  Speaker 8: Yeah, So my dad thought he was a rock for
• 42:48
  Speaker 8: a while until he like took a second look when
• 42:51
  Speaker 8: he went back around and then pulled him out, and
• 42:54
  Speaker 8: I was like, he's a lot smaller than.
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: What he looked like in the scope ground shrinkage.
• 42:59
  Speaker 8: Yeah, and then he pulled and then my dad pulled
• 43:03
  Speaker 8: him to this like shade spot cut him up my
• 43:07
  Speaker 8: dad's knife.
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: Did you help cut him up?
• 43:09
  Speaker 8: I helped the leg my dad.
• 43:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 43:12
  Speaker 8: But my dad didn't want me to cut myself with
• 43:14
  Speaker 8: his knife because they're really sharp, so he let me
• 43:18
  Speaker 8: cut open like the bladder and like the liver and
• 43:21
  Speaker 8: stuff and look at the heart and all that.
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: So do you like the butcher and process? Uh?
• 43:27
  Speaker 8: Yeah, next year he said I could help him with it.
• 43:29
  Speaker 8: So then I just learned how to do it myself.

  Speaker 2: So when you go hot with your friends, you could
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: be the person the butchers. Mm hmm, got it. And
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: then what about did you carry some in your pack?
• 43:43
  Speaker 8: Yeah? This time I was actually able to carry a
• 43:46
  Speaker 8: lot because I got an actual backpack. And last year
• 43:48
  Speaker 8: I was using like a school backpack and it was
• 43:53
  Speaker 8: an actual backpack, and like this was an actual hunting
• 43:56
  Speaker 8: backpack and I was able to carr a lot more,
• 44:00
  Speaker 8: which for my dad, he said it felt a lot
• 44:03
  Speaker 8: better on his back, but it.
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: Was did you take some of the weight?
• 44:06
  Speaker 8: Yeah? Sure, And then like you put it on my
• 44:10
  Speaker 8: back and I almost fell backwards because I wasn't ready
• 44:12
  Speaker 8: for how heavy it was going to be, and then
• 44:14
  Speaker 8: he had to catch me. But then I was fine.
• 44:17
  Speaker 8: And when I took it off, I felt like a fleather,
• 44:20
  Speaker 8: like a feather. Oh when you got When I got
• 44:23
  Speaker 8: back to camp, I felt like a feather.
• 44:25
  Speaker 5: When I was packing my dear it, my neck and

  Speaker 5: the neck tach that we could take them.

  Speaker 2: We also got a new Kids Podcast t shirt available

  Speaker 2: in the Meat Eater store right now. Now, I got
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: a new line of question for each of you we're
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: gonna go back to Aina and then we'll see what
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: kind of questions. Corey might have some questions because as
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: a person who's got kids coming up, he might have
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: some questions. But here's my question for Aina, what is
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: the one piece of advice you would give to moms
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: or dads whoever taking kids out for their first hunts.
• 47:48
  Speaker 6: I would probably just say make it fun, like, don't
• 47:51
  Speaker 6: try to push too much. It's good when you have it,
• 47:56
  Speaker 6: like when you have the capability to be pushed, but
• 47:58
  Speaker 6: if you're taking like a nine year old out and
• 48:01
  Speaker 6: they're just hunting with you or something, and they're like, oh,
• 48:03
  Speaker 6: I'm so tired. And if they're like younger than kids,
• 48:06
  Speaker 6: you're like us, who we can be pushed. We're old
• 48:09
  Speaker 6: enough to be pushed, but it gets like un fun
• 48:11
  Speaker 6: where then you're like, oh, I don't want to go
• 48:13
  Speaker 6: hunting because I know it's gonna get so so hard
• 48:15
  Speaker 6: that it's not going to be fun anymore.
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: M that's fine. I asked you. I don't agree. I
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: don't agree. So that's your opinion. I asked you for
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: your opinion that you have it. I bet you got pushed.
• 48:26
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, but it makes it makes you a better
• 48:29
  Speaker 4: person and a better hunter.
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: Uh huh huh. But your piece of advice is don't
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: you really get pushed a lot? Yes, she just gave
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: him a look.
• 48:41
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: One day we had it where Aina was gonna hunt
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: with a different Aina and Mabel, we're gonna split up.
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: Aiah was gonna hunt with someone different. She wanted to
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: know if they walked faster than her dad, and she's
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: glad to hear that they did not walk faster.
• 48:53
  Speaker 6: Long enough lugs where I can keep up with him.
• 48:55
  Speaker 6: But if you go faster than him, I'm him. I'm
• 48:58
  Speaker 6: gonna be left in the dust.
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: But he's one of the faster walkers I hang out with.
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, so you're you're training at top level. Yes, Mabel.
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: Piece of advice for mom's dads taking kids hunting, I.
• 49:10
  Speaker 8: Mean, like.
• 49:13
  Speaker 6: Like honestly, like make sure that like not that I
• 49:17
  Speaker 6: don't want to go hunting. I love hunting, but like
• 49:19
  Speaker 6: make sure your kid like really really wants to go,
• 49:22
  Speaker 6: because if they don't want to go, and then you
• 49:25
  Speaker 6: think that they do, and then you push them to
• 49:27
  Speaker 6: go like every single time, then they're gonna not want
• 49:30
  Speaker 6: to hunt at all. You think that, Yeah, I mean
• 49:33
  Speaker 6: that happened with like my like my cousin, like his dad.
• 49:37
  Speaker 6: People at him duck hunt like all the time, and
• 49:40
  Speaker 6: he didn't like it because of I think the cold.
• 49:42
  Speaker 6: But then like now he doesn't like doing it at
• 49:45
  Speaker 6: all because he was like pushed.
• 49:46
  Speaker 4: To do it too much. I mean, I love hunting.
• 49:49
  Speaker 6: I love that my dad pushes me because otherwise I
• 49:51
  Speaker 6: probably wouldn't do it. I'd like in the morning when
• 49:54
  Speaker 6: he wakes me up, I'd be like, I don't want
• 49:56
  Speaker 6: to go, but that because he pushes me, like he
• 49:59
  Speaker 6: like makes me like want to go. And then I realized,
• 50:01
  Speaker 6: like how fun it is when I'm out there. But like,
• 50:04
  Speaker 6: like make sure they do have interest in it, because
• 50:07
  Speaker 6: otherwise they'll just like be pushed onto it all the
• 50:09
  Speaker 6: time and then they don't want they don't want to
• 50:11
  Speaker 6: do it at all.
• 50:12
  Speaker 9: That's something I'm really paranoid about, is overdoing it, over
• 50:15
  Speaker 9: pushing them.
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: I disagree with WHOA, I disagree that's your opinion. I'm
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: glad you have it. I just don't think it's true.
• 50:26
  Speaker 7: Well you've had good luck. Well it's still early, but
• 50:31
  Speaker 7: with your three kids, they've accepted pushing very well. But
• 50:37
  Speaker 7: in my universe. I just know too many that pushed
• 50:42
  Speaker 7: and it wound up not working out. Really, yeah, and
• 50:45
  Speaker 7: it's sad.
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: Because I feel just plug your ears, Rosie. I'm not
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: like at a certain age, I'm not interested. I'm not
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: terribly interested in what they want to do. No, I
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: mean it's true. Well, like we'll say we're gonna go
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: camping this weekend. Inevitably, inevitably, this is gonna be some
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: Oh I can't. I didn't want to. I was supposed to.
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: I was gonna all right, or like it's just we
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: don't need of us cares. Speaking me and my wife,
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: you know, like need of us cares. We're going camp
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: this weekend, go camping, come home. Every had a great time.
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: They don't want to leave so much fun. They're they're
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: exhausted from physical activity. Right. And if we had said, like,
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: you know, to little kids, do you want to go camping? Like,
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: oh no, because I was gonna go to Billy's house
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: and be like, Okay, I guess we'll cancel that plan,
• 51:40
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean?
• 51:41
  Speaker 9: Oh yeah, if I were to ask my kid, what
• 51:42
  Speaker 9: do you want to do this weekend? You'll say, I
• 51:44
  Speaker 9: don't eat fun dip and stare at my tablet.
• 51:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, so we're doing that. Yeah, we just haven't.
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: I know it changes later, but early on we just
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: we kind of like we made a plan and that
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: was the plan.
• 51:55
  Speaker 9: And you're able to mold them still.
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, there's a point at which I agree. I'm
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: sure it's true, and I there's a point at which agree,
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: But I think that I see people too often. I
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: don't know, like like cave, it's hard to get every
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: out the door. I agree with that, it's hard to
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: get every out the door. It's a lot of clothes,
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: it's a lot of gear, it's a lot of complaining.
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: You gotta have just like you gotta be like the
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: force of a tornado and just be like, dude, we're going.
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: We're getting stuff. Maybe it's not perfect, but we're gonna
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: get enough stuff packed and we're going at a point.
• 52:33
  Speaker 7: Yeah, No, I think there it's a balance, right, because
• 52:37
  Speaker 7: that depending on what scale you're using, what you're describing
• 52:42
  Speaker 7: might only be a three in someone's version of how
• 52:44
  Speaker 7: much you pushed or didn't push, right, but maybe you
• 52:48
  Speaker 7: escalate that to a seven, and then all of a
• 52:51
  Speaker 7: sudden they're just like, you know what really I'm done camping, bro.
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we're not like dragging them out. We're not
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: like dragging them out in and loading them in the cot.
• 53:01
  Speaker 7: And you're like, hey, kids, you ever heard of winter camping?
• 53:04
  Speaker 7: It's negative ten. It's still almost as fun but cold.
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I got you, hattie advice, and I might disagree
• 53:13
  Speaker 2: with you. Well, what advice you have for moms and
• 53:18
  Speaker 2: dads who want to take the kids out hunting? From
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: a kid's perspective? Seasoned the kid?
• 53:22
  Speaker 8: Okay, if your kid wants to take a break, just
• 53:28
  Speaker 8: take like a five minute break and let them, I
• 53:30
  Speaker 8: don't know, catch themselves instead of just saying no, we're
• 53:33
  Speaker 8: gonna hike one mile and then you can take your
• 53:38
  Speaker 8: disagree with you and also bring more food than you
• 53:42
  Speaker 8: think you will.
• 53:43
  Speaker 6: That I agree with everything you just said.
• 53:46
  Speaker 4: I agree with that.
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: I don't think and I'm speaking of kids general. I
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: don't think kids have a great sense of when it's
• 53:52
  Speaker 2: time to take a break.
• 53:54
  Speaker 5: Well, also miss their whole entire Okay, I guess Yeah,
• 53:59
  Speaker 5: I've been hiking for my whole life. But you're like
• 54:01
  Speaker 5: fifty years old, you I should be.
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: I'm on the downward slide.
• 54:06
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but think about this. You've been doing this your
• 54:09
  Speaker 5: whole entire livingness of fifty years. So it's different when
• 54:14
  Speaker 5: you're like a little kid.
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: No, you guys want to take breaks in the dumbest places.
• 54:19
  Speaker 2: We'll be down in some little ditch bottom where you
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: can't see a single thing. Let's have a break. Like,
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: let's have a break while we're up looking at fresh ground.
• 54:26
  Speaker 7: That's true.
• 54:28
  Speaker 5: Not true.
• 54:30
  Speaker 4: Also, don't push too much.
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: I'll be like, we canna have a break. See that
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: spot up there. We get to that spot, we're gonna
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: nestle in and we'll have a break.
• 54:36
  Speaker 4: That's that.
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: Then that thought likes to take breaks in the right.
• 54:42
  Speaker 6: That you're talking out there, and then we can take
• 54:44
  Speaker 6: a break. That certain spot that you see is like
• 54:47
  Speaker 6: five miles away, and you're like, you're like, oh, roum
• 54:51
  Speaker 6: is there.
• 54:51
  Speaker 7: No, we're not.
• 54:52
  Speaker 5: We're not almost there.
• 54:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you got your kids and everything that's happened with
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: you kids, you'll appreciate this someday. They've trained you like,
• 55:03
  Speaker 2: this whole thing with you guys in the water is
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: out of control.
• 55:06
  Speaker 5: Well, how don't we saved that? For what I'm what
• 55:08
  Speaker 5: my advice is, Yah, I would like to talk, No.
• 55:15
  Speaker 2: Kidd, I mean, just think about it. It sounds like
• 55:17
  Speaker 2: a Roidney dangerfield thing. But like when I was a kid,
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: no kid had a water bottle.
• 55:22
  Speaker 5: No gotta save this from when I'm talking about like
• 55:25
  Speaker 5: what like advice.
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: Okay, all right, but uh, I'll get to your advice
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: one second. I want to go back to this. The
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: food thing I think is is I I agree hundred percent.
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: I agree with breaks, but I think you guys don't
• 55:38
  Speaker 2: have a well timed sense of when to take them.
• 55:40
  Speaker 2: The food thing, You're exactly right, put way more food
• 55:45
  Speaker 2: in your pack than you would ever think anyone could
• 55:48
  Speaker 2: possibly eat, end of a greater variety, right you guys
• 55:52
  Speaker 2: hearing me, Yes, huge variety, huge quantity.
• 55:56
  Speaker 7: But don't worry about the water.
• 55:59
  Speaker 5: I think.
• 56:00
  Speaker 6: I think about like the kid thing where the kids
• 56:03
  Speaker 6: have like a bad sense of when to take a break.
• 56:05
  Speaker 6: It's like, but if we get up to a good
• 56:08
  Speaker 6: spot where we could take a break and it'd be
• 56:10
  Speaker 6: like a good spot, then my dad is like, oh,
• 56:13
  Speaker 6: let's take a break, instead of me saying I want
• 56:15
  Speaker 6: to take a break here, It's like we only like
• 56:19
  Speaker 6: take breaks if we wounded the bad parts because we
• 56:22
  Speaker 6: like are tired down there for like some odd really bad.
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: He wants taking a break.
• 56:29
  Speaker 8: Yeah, like yeah, but like I'm.
• 56:34
  Speaker 6: Yeah, like when we're in a good spot to take
• 56:36
  Speaker 6: a break, like I would say take a break, but
• 56:39
  Speaker 6: my dad's like he like knows when we're like about
• 56:42
  Speaker 6: to say let's take a break. And then he's like,
• 56:44
  Speaker 6: all right, well, like you see that perfect spot up there,
• 56:47
  Speaker 6: we'll take a break up there before us saying it.
• 56:49
  Speaker 6: So it's like, yeah, so we're not.
• 56:53
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I agree with your They don't choose the right
• 56:56
  Speaker 8: time to take a break, Like you'll be in the
• 56:59
  Speaker 8: middle of a and they'll want to take a break.
• 57:02
  Speaker 8: But I feel like it's also depending on your age,
• 57:05
  Speaker 8: Like you could be yeah, like fifteen years old and
• 57:08
  Speaker 8: no one to take a break because you've been hunting
• 57:11
  Speaker 8: for like five years. Yeah, so you'd understand like a
• 57:14
  Speaker 8: sense of when to But like when you're when it's
• 57:17
  Speaker 8: like six thirty in the morning and you're hiking up
• 57:20
  Speaker 8: this gigantic hill when it's pitch dark out, you don't
• 57:24
  Speaker 8: don't really know where you are and it's six thirty
• 57:26
  Speaker 8: in the morning, so you don't want to take a break.
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: But everybody else knows you got to get somewhere yeah,
• 57:31
  Speaker 2: but I'm not opposed breaks because the best part of
• 57:34
  Speaker 2: my youth hunt this season. I was with Rosie and
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: her little brother Matthew, and we got to be noon
• 57:42
  Speaker 2: and we were just staying out. We weren't going back.
• 57:44
  Speaker 2: We're just you know, everybody stayed had the plan to
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: stay out and hunt all day until dark. So it
• 57:49
  Speaker 2: was noon and Rosie laid on my left shoulder and
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: Maddie was laid on my right shoulder and they fell
• 57:55
  Speaker 2: asleep and they didn't wake up till two. And I'm
• 57:59
  Speaker 2: used to taken like I'll take a power nap with
• 58:02
  Speaker 2: the best of them, but I'm not used to the
• 58:03
  Speaker 2: two hour power nap. But that was very relaxing for me.
• 58:08
  Speaker 5: No, it was. It was almost three hours because we
• 58:10
  Speaker 5: munch about at like eleven thirty and then woke up
• 58:13
  Speaker 5: at like two.
• 58:14
  Speaker 2: So yep. And you know, we had a magic We
• 58:17
  Speaker 2: had a magic secret bullet in our packs. We brought
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: a couple of mini cans a pop soda so after
• 58:25
  Speaker 2: so after naptime, you could bust out one of them
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: cans a pop and that just gets you gets you
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: ready to rock. All right, Rose, what's your Rosemary? Hit
• 58:34
  Speaker 2: me with your advice to moms and dads taking their
• 58:36
  Speaker 2: kids hunt. And then then we're gonna see what Corey's
• 58:39
  Speaker 2: gonna have some questions for you guys. I'm guessing because.
• 58:41
  Speaker 5: He's got a kid coming up, all right, So just
• 58:45
  Speaker 5: like like what I just said, like make it fun,
• 58:48
  Speaker 5: Like I know this ruined my chance to get a
• 58:51
  Speaker 5: big deer, but maybe maybe do a little like like
• 58:57
  Speaker 5: not taking like a break, like sitting down, and like
• 59:01
  Speaker 5: maybe going in just like looking for like bugs or
• 59:04
  Speaker 5: something like anything like fun to get their minds off
• 59:07
  Speaker 5: of like hiking for a little bit. And then also
• 59:11
  Speaker 5: my dad definitely disagrees with this, But drink water. I
• 59:17
  Speaker 5: mean I don't even see him drinking water anymore, and
• 59:21
  Speaker 5: yet he's almost against it.
• 59:24
  Speaker 7: Well, you've been to where he grew up, right, you've
• 59:27
  Speaker 7: been there, right all water, Yeah, it's all water, and
• 59:30
  Speaker 7: it's flat, and so it's not anywhere near the same
• 59:34
  Speaker 7: thing as to where you're growing up. And why you
• 59:36
  Speaker 7: had required, you know, to be packing around water and
• 59:38
  Speaker 7: drinking water because he could he literally just like he
• 59:42
  Speaker 7: just diverted and then he would just scoop his hand
• 59:44
  Speaker 7: up into the lake and drink.
• 59:46
  Speaker 5: I know, but like if I go to school and
• 59:48
  Speaker 5: I'm like, I'm gonna get a water bottle. He's like, Hey,
• 59:50
  Speaker 5: you don't need water bottle. You're fine. Back in my
• 59:54
  Speaker 5: day in the fifties, we didn't have water bottles.
• 59:57
  Speaker 9: My kid's got like ten water bottles. Oh, it's insane.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 7: No whoever had the idea that it improves cognitive function
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 7: to be hydrated.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 3: It's very very Yes.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 6: Being hydrated actually helps you live, So it helps if
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 6: you're taking your kids out, make sure you.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 5: Bring lots of water, lots of food, and just like
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 5: take like not breaks, like sitting down breaks, but like
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 5: breaks to just do get your mind off of, like hiking,
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 5: and then get back to it. And I almost think
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 5: that your kids will do a lot better if they've
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 5: had like a little mind refresh.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 7: One time, I have packed a school bag full of
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 7: I don't know what kind of books and puzzles and
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 7: games and coloring pencils, and we went down into a
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 7: radene under a shade tree where you couldn't see more
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 7: than ten yards in any direction, and we spent an
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 7: hour there just coloring, and then we climbed out of
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 7: there and lo and behold, there was some pronghorn up
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 7: on the flat that we were about to hunt. So
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 7: the timing was perfect.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 6: Can I add something to mind, please, because I feel
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 6: like the pushing it's really good, because like, you don't
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 6: love hiking when you're six ' five, like nine years old.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 6: It's not the best thing in the world. Yeah, but
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 6: it makes you, I like, a better hunter. I mean
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 6: obviously it makes you like it pushes you for like
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 6: everything in life. But then also it makes sometimes it's
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 6: not fun, so taking the correct breaks, like not too many,
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 6: because then it's like obviously you're caving in is like
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 6: a not like just letting your child do whatever they want,
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 6: but then not pushing so hard. Warre It's like, I
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 6: never want to come out here and do this ever
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 6: ever again.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 2: What do you guys think about this? Idea?
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 5: Wait? Wait, I got one thing do so somebody very
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 5: wise told me this. She is a very athletic woman.
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 5: She is our family friend, and I was running the
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 5: rut with her and she we were like, me and
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 5: my friend were like, this is not fun. We're like
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 5: so tired, and she's like, it's secondary fun. So when
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 5: you are out hiking, it may not be fun in
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 5: the moment, but later you're like that was really fun.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 5: I did really cool stuff.
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, I got you.
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 6: And you'll like the fact that you just pushed yourself
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 6: really hard and you just did a bunch of it,
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 6: like you went all that way and you know, you're
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 6: not thinking about it because you're like, oh my gosh,
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 6: my leg hurt. My leg's hurt. But then when you
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 6: get back to camp, you're like, oh, yeah, I walked
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 6: like four miles or something.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 5: And you're like maybe, but like you got pushed, you
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 5: pushed yourself, and you're like, it's like secondary fun even
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 5: though you hated.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 4: It in the moment.
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 2: Let me hit you guys with an idea. What if
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 2: a parent was thinking to themselves, well, I'm gonna go
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 2: for broke. I'm gonna I'm gonna either have a super
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 2: a kid that's obsessed with hunting and fishing, or I'm
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 2: gonna burn them out and they never want to go again.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 2: And you're like, I don't care about the middle ground,
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 2: So I'm gonna push as hard as I can push.
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 2: I might get a die hard hunter and angler, or
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 2: I might get someone who never wants to go again.
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 2: I know I won't land in the middle. Is that
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 2: a good approach? Or a bad approach and just push
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 2: it hard.
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 8: Bad bad, bad, that's bad.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 7: I'm listening to them. I want to know, like the
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 7: what's the favorite part about hunting in general? You guys
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 7: can look it back at our recent trip and say, oh,
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 7: this was a real highlight and this is why I
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 7: like doing this trip and going again, or just generally
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 7: why you guys like to go out hunting.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 5: Well, I feel like when I'm hunting, it's I mean,
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 5: I've always like been I guess, like push to go
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 5: do things, but like not in a bad way. Like
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 5: my dad gives me the option, like if I say
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 5: I don't want to go, he's not gonna meet Sometimes
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 5: he's not going to force me to go. But I
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 5: feel like what I really like about hunting is that
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 5: even if it's like a little sad that like killing things,
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 5: but like in the end, you're like feeding your family
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 5: and it's just like really rewarding.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 4: Yes, I agree with that a lot.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's like it's rewarding to like your like I guess,
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 6: emotional state, like your ego that like I went out
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 6: and I killed the animal, and I'm like feeding the people,
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 6: like I guess my family and and then I like
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 6: hiked all this way, and I like carried meat, and
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 6: I like did all the steps and now I'm happy
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 6: that I did it all. And it's like just nice
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 6: to think about.
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 8: I guess what I think about is uh, that you're
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 8: spending time with like your parent that way with you
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 8: Like I went with my dad and I liked spending
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 8: time with him and killing an animal with him, and
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 8: like being able to feed my family also while spending
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 8: time and having like and creating memories.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 2: It's great.
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 6: Also just like being in the outdoors with like when
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 6: you go back to camp, there's you're not gonna go
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 6: on your phone and you're not going to do this,
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 6: like you're just going to be in the moment more
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 6: of and thinking about what you're doing then and not
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 6: like what's gonna happen or what you did, and you
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 6: just kind of get to be in the moment of I'm.
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 8: In the outdoors right now.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 6: I get to spend time with my family, I get
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 6: to put food on the table. I get to push
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 6: myself to be like a better person and like a
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 6: stronger hunter and a better hunter, and just there's so
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 6: many like positives. I feel like the hunting, especially after
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 6: you've done the hunt itself.
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 2: Oh great, thank you, Corey.
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 9: You got more questions, man, well, I had maybe some
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 9: more technical gear questions.
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 3: Oh it's great.
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 2: That's a great subject.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 9: Obviously, you can't kill a deer with mind bullets, so
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 9: I'm curious what caliber you guys are all.
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 5: Using, uh, six five cream more same okay.
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 9: And maybe those sig crosses that have like the nice
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 9: foldable stock. Yeah, easier to carry around.
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: You're shooting a six five creed More, aren't you.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 4: I think so.
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 8: Yeah, it's a tree more something.
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 5: Oh wait, I have one more piece of advice too.
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 5: Tell your kids not to be afraid to shoot a
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 5: gun because of the recoil. Because most of the time
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 5: when you're hunting as a little kid, you're not gonna
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 5: get a big, heavy duty gun. It's gonna blow your
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 5: shoulder off.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 2: Like, well, kids also shoot suppressed rifles.
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I was really scared, like for my turkeys, not
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 5: necessarily for my deer this year. I was last year. Like,
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 5: it's always the kick that I just get scared about.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 5: I'm just scared that's gonna like hurt my shoulder. But
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 5: I think you should just tell your kids that, Like
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 5: would you rather be scared to pull a trigger because
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 5: you're word your shoulder is gonna get a little bruise
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 5: on it, or like shoot an animal, you know, like
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 5: just tell them to that it's like okay and that
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 5: doesn't actually hurt. And then maybe like maybe like yeah,
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 5: maybe like do it and show them that it doesn't
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 5: actually hurt, like like pull it once on you and
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 5: say that like it doesn't hurt, like I'm okay, or don't.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 6: Bring us The first thing is in like oh here's
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 6: a gun, go shoot it, but make sure but like
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 6: watch out, he's got a bunch of recoil, Like, oh,
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 6: here's a gun.
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 4: Like I hope you have fun.
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 3: That's something in your head.
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 5: That's something my older brother would always do to me.
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 5: He'd be like, oh, Rosie, do gun's got a lot
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 5: of kick.
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 2: And I was well, because he was jealous, I know.
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 6: But I was always I was always scared of the
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 6: kick anyway. And he'd be like, he'd be like that
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 6: gun's got a lot of kick.
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 7: I'd be like, well, I think that could be an
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 7: example of pushing too hard. Right, there is some minimum
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 7: amount of caliber gauge that you have to use to
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 7: kill these animals. And some kids at the age of
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 7: ten maybe because of their personality or body structure size,
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 7: like they just are not gonna be able to handle
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 7: even though a four to ten or a you know
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 7: really light yeah, you know, six millimeters or whatever. So
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 7: you're just gonna have to wait and be And.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 6: The mental like pulling a trigger and shooting something like
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 6: a big mental like I'm gonna take this animal's life
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 6: with like I'm going to do it myself. And the
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 6: mental like don't push it too hard. Is in like
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 6: a you have to like do this right now because
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 6: if they like need a way, if they need to
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 6: think about that, that's the thing that you have to
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 6: kind of overcome in your mind.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 2: Corey On to give you a couple of you want
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 2: a technical gear advice, Let me give you some technical
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 2: gear advice. Ear plugs, headset, if possible, suppressed.
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 5: Something I was not providing.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 2: I'm not talking about hout field cheating. Cram their ear
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 2: full of ear plugs, cram it. Put head ear muffs
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 2: over the ear plugs. Put a couple of layers on,
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 2: not a T shirt, m pad, heavy rifle, heavy bipod.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 2: If you can afford it and get it and do
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 2: all that to get a suppressor, put a suppressor on
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 2: it and just deaden, deaden everything down, because I feel
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 2: that they conflate the noise and the recoil into a
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 2: sort of package of badness. And and doing that double
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: ear protection and just sort of deadening the noise. I
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 2: think that you could have the same exact recoil and
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 2: remove a bunch of the noise, and in their mind
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: it's just a much more pleasurable experience because I think
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 2: that they're registering the the loudness and the kick into
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 2: just a generally unpleasant experience. So by shooting like heavy
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 2: bipod heavy gun, laying down jackets on, we had very
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 2: good luck, to the point where I would tell people
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 2: that every we'd go through this two years in a row.
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 2: When she finally shot a rifle, she would be worked
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 2: up about it. She'd shoot a rifle and her and
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 2: she would laugh because she had You would giggle because
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 2: you had in your head that it was gonna be
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 2: so miserable, and then you shoot. You're like, oh, that
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 2: was fun, you know, because we did all those steps right.
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 5: Ye.
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 9: Well, my kid just gradu raided from his red Rider
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 9: BB gun to a twenty two. So we've done some
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 9: squirrel hunting this year. What should I do next? Like
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 9: six or five scenes a bit much, but well.
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 7: Let's not jump away from the squirrel hunting me. That's
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 7: a I was someone else was talking to me about
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 7: squirrel hunting recently, and I was saying, Yeah, I think
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 7: that's the reason my girls are the hunters that they
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 7: are today and the marksmen that they are today is
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 7: because of the time that we spent in the squirrel woods,
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 7: you know, familiarizing themselves with the twenty two shooting a
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 7: twenty two hunting hard to kill animal. And whoever I
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 7: was talking to was like, Oh, I thought you guys
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 7: just did it because it was fun and you like
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 7: to eat them. I'm like, well it is, but like,
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 7: I don't know, would you girls agree, Like, you guys
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 7: got a lot of fair amount of practice on those squirrels,
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 7: So when it came to switching to a deer, did
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 7: it seem like it was easier?
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 9: Oh?
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 7: Yeah, you've already been there.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 6: Yes, the squirrels are hard t find. And I was
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 6: like very happy when I could get squirrels on my own.
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 6: That was like a really big achievement for me just
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 6: to be able to like like go out and like
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 6: you trusting me to do that on my own and
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 6: like go out and like set up on a squirrel
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 6: and shoot it and then have it like fall down
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 6: from the tree. You hear it hit the ground.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 7: Oh I just sound.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 8: I just thought of like another tip for like the
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 8: people going hunting with their kids soon, like who are
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 8: coming of age to it. Like with the kick. If
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 8: you think if you're like practicing in like a field
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 8: and you don't know if they're flinching or not from
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 8: like the kick it gives act like you're putting it around,
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 8: but don't so then they dry fire and just watch
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 8: them because then you'll know if they're actually flinching or not.
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 8: Not good to close your eyes before you shoot the
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 8: mab also that too, but remind them that. So every
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 8: time I've shot my deer the adrenaline rush, I never
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 8: remember having a kick on my gun. Oh yeah, shoot
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 8: a deer, So like remind them that they're most likely
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 8: not going to feel the kick when they're actually shooting it.
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 4: You don't even think about that.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 5: I know I've said like a lot about this certain thing,
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 5: but I have one more tip.
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 8: Water.
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I would like to talk about water light later
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 5: and you're you not liking water. But anyway, what I
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 5: was about to say was that another tip for well,
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 5: in my case, my mom, if you if this is
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 5: just in my case, like if you're a dad and
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 5: you take your kid out hunting, make sure they're wearing
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 5: ear protection, because in my case, my mom got very
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 5: very upset that I was not wearing ear protection and
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 5: had a pretty much like a whole speech about people
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 5: losing their hearing and how my dad's ears are so
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 5: bad to this day because he doesn't use hearing protection
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 5: and when I got my dear, my ears really really
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 5: started to ring.
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 2: It's not true because it was it was a suppressed rifle.
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 5: I could I could not hear us. Truthfully, from the
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 5: bottom of my heart, my ears actually hurt like they hurt.
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 5: So make sure you bring ear protection and always have
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 5: it ready.
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 2: Well, in all fairness, you know the suppressor she was
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 2: using as uh, one of those suppressors meant for ars.
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 8: It doesn't.
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 2: It doesn't get too much blowback. It's like a suppressor light.
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so it like amplifies, not even more.
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 2: No, it's just kind of doesn't. It's not like a
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 2: full like suppressed. It's like that's what it like, itsy bits.
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 2: He suppressed. Yeah, I didn't really appreciate that you ran
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 2: home and told you mill about that. To be honest
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 2: with you, I get in all kind of trouble all
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 2: the time. I don't need you adding to.
• 1:14:08

  Speaker 5: It's good and they have in them because they've got
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 5: like peanut butter. They taste so good. That's a kid

  Speaker 2: That's a kid friendly bar. High protein wafer bar maple
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 2: hot tip for on food.
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 6: Well, like if normally a lot of like most of
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 6: the hunting chips, I like the day hunting chips I
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 6: go on. It's like the sandwiches and stuff. Make sure
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 6: that you like before just making them a sandwich, Like,
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 6: make sure you know that they like the sandwich, and
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 6: you could like send it to school with them, because
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 6: like I've made a sandwich for myself and I did
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 6: I put like a Broadworst in it or something, and
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 6: I did not like that. It was like the juice
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 6: of the broadwaysh got all over the bun and it
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 6: did not work.
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 2: So like, so just be clear you're saying, don't just
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 2: make them a sandwich, work with them to find a
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 2: sandwich they like, and then task that they actually like
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 2: that sandwich. Yeah yeah, then pack that workshopped approved sandwich.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 4: Sandwich you don't.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 2: Well understood. Don't be packing some nasty sandwich no one
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 2: wants to eat.
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 6: Not to bring like juicy meat in the sandwich because
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 6: then it gets all soggy and that's griss.
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 2: Totally understood. Man, that's that's great. You're getting that, Corey.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 9: I'm writing it all down.
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 2: Okay, favorite snack.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 8: So this happens a lot because I hear it at
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 8: Like when I was in elementary school, I heard like
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 8: little kids complaining about their throats turning after running or
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 8: stuff like that because like they didn't drink water in
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 8: their math and their mouth was dry. Bring jolly ranchers
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 8: because your kids can catch colds, and a lot of
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 8: kids like me, I don't like certain cough drops for
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 8: some reason. They're like too strong, and jolly ranchers will
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 8: help so much. You like suck on it and all
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 8: like the saliva in your mouth, you like help it.
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 8: It does like the same thing as jolly rancher, just
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 8: doesn't have like all the men.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 2: Like green apple, jolly.
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 8: Blue, raspberry, cherry and watermelon.
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's good. Tip roads best best snack the dried salmon.
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 5: That is very okay, Yes, probably that for one of them,
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 5: because dried salmon jerky. I was very very tired and
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 5: my head hurt. I did not feel good, and I
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 5: was just munching on that salmon jerky and it practically
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 5: made me like walk It felt like I was like
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 5: in a dream, like I was just like walking along
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 5: because I was just munching on my salmon jerky.
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 6: The effects.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 7: Headache had anything.
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 6: To do with I probably did have something to do with.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 5: But I had my own pack this year that my
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 5: dad got me and.
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 8: And I could put yeah, exactly exactly ever wanted.
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 2: So I fed you the line about the same and jerky.
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 2: But what if you had to pack your own snacks.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 2: What's your favorite PROA?
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 5: Well, I really do like protein bars, but every time
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 5: I open one of my dad's, like make sure you
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 5: eat all that, because he thinks that, like I'm gonna
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 5: he thinks that I'm going to open it and then
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 5: it's gonna be like really disgusting. But protein bars, I
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 5: feel like the good protein bars, like the wafer Nature
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 5: Valley wafer. Yeah, those those really good. And rees Yes,
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 5: make sure you.
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 4: Bring reeses coffee, sugar, and calories.

  Speaker 6: Along with like the jerky thing. Like I like being
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 6: able to like have like a big piece of jerky
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 6: and just like chewing on it while I walk because
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 6: I can just like walk and kind of think that
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 6: I'm like restoring energy because I'm eating, but then it's

  Speaker 2: to school.
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 7: Well before buttons, I had something to add to I had,
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 7: But you had that moment when you were taking a nap,
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 7: your kids nap twice as long on your chest there.
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 7: But I think it was the last night we were
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 7: in camp. You'd already been in your tent for an hour.
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 7: It seemed like Steve was in bed at eight thirty
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 7: and the rest of the adults at like nine nine
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 7: thirty were like, all right, we've had enough. You know,
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 7: we're going to bed. All the kids are up and
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 7: I can from my tent. I can hear them. There's
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 7: no lights on. They're in this cottonwood grove and there's
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 7: no lights on, and all the adults are in their
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 7: tents like laying there, and I can just hear. I
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 7: can't tell what they're talking about, but it's just chatter.
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 7: And I'm just thinking, man, how great our kids are
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 7: just hanging out in the dark, you know, in the
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 7: middle of Montana, somewhere they're safe, there's no screens, there's
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 7: no phones. They're enjoying themselves. They're comfortable where they are
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 7: and their surroundings. What could be better?
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah, let's just say during that whole experience, me and
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 5: Mabel went and got ready for bed, but Jimmy and
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 5: Hayden took the biggest sticks they could. You want there,
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 5: But no, I don't heard it.
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 8: He got a huge log, the taller than him and
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 8: packed it behind.
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 5: His back and they started sword fighting.
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 8: They started sword fighting and then almost slapped Jimmy in
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 8: the head.
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 2: That's why those guys are invited. Those guys aren't here.
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 2: And if we didn't let those knuckleheads come down.
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 5: Here and we when we were what you heard was
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 5: probably well me and Mabel. Like I said, we eventually left,
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 5: but we were all playing a game that Jimmy made
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 5: called Scream that got a little boring. It's like where
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 5: Jimmy and Hayden, which is them every time. It's supposed
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 5: to be like different people, but it's not. Jimmy made
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 5: it up. They go into the woods and the rest
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 5: of the people try to go find them, and if
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 5: you scream, you have to join the people who are
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 5: trying to scare you. It's very fun. It can get
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 5: boring at points when you're not in the right surroundings
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 5: to do it.
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 2: Got let's touch on the hot butt buck nuts, Mabel
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 2: and go ahead, because your one's that brought them back
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 2: to camp. Yeah.
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 6: So like when we were cutting open the deer, you know,
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 6: like butchering, we like obviously we we had him upside down,
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 6: and the bucknuts were like right there because you know,
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 6: you like cut them off and stuff. So like the
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 6: buck nuts had been like thrown in the same direction,
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 6: and I like walked by and I was like, hey, Papa,
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 6: well like they they had been I think one of
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 6: like Aina's had been thrown like the bushes. And then
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 6: we were cutting open mine like we were starting, you
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 6: know where you started butchering, and I was like, I
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 6: was like, oh, like, can we like eat buck nuts?

• 1:24:12
  Speaker 6: had never heard of from like Hattie like the sign
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 6: of sex thing, but I mean, I guess we brought
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 6: them back and yeah, but like we just like I
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 6: had just said like like, oh, can we like eat those?
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 6: And then my dad was like, oh yeah, So then
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 6: we were like talking about them. So I just like
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 6: put them in a bag and then I put them

  Speaker 6: in a backpack and then we like brought them back
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 6: and we cut them up and we had him.
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 5: So yeah, and then we made a little jingle to it,
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 5: which is also on Instagram that you can check out.
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 5: But uh, then after that we had already eaten ours.

  Speaker 5: Me and Hottie both spit ours out because we weren't
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 5: enjoying them very much. And how he was like, you know,

  Speaker 8: That happened.
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 5: We ate them. They were interesting.
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 7: I had a couple of comments saying that if we
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 7: peel them even farther, they'll be even They'll be even
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 7: better somehow, and you won't get that sort of tightness
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 7: that you're worried about. It sort of generates the exit.
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 2: Oh taking the next layer of skin off. Yeah, I'm
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 2: not familiar. I'll check that out.

  Speaker 7: am going to pre slice and do like a breading. Yeah,
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 7: pan fry or better.
• 1:25:27
