0:51

then we went to work on after that 28 that

0:53

morning to get you fired up , though , like coming back now

0:55

you're like okay , hey , you know , I'm gonna be honest with you . Like

0:57

going into it , I was so like just I'm

1:00

ready to kill a big deer or kill a deer you .

1:01

You're ready to kill a deer ? We're way ahead of you .

1:03

Yeah , yeah , I'm behind . So going in there I

1:05

wasn't pumped to go duck hunting . And

1:08

then I get there , I still wasn't pumped Right

1:10

. Then the first morning we got a group of 60 come

1:12

in . I

1:24

was like you know what , like duck hunting is fun , but

1:26

like I gotta kill a deer first , so the whole time like

1:29

we're smashing ducks and I'm like damn ready

1:31

to get back to get the cheese well , if

1:33

you look at it , we didn't .

1:34

It ain't like we killed any bucks when you were gone okay

1:37

, and .

1:37

I'll tell you something we didn yeah

1:40

so we're actually behind

1:42

, yeah , technically well for

1:44

duck season for duck season , but at least I've seen

1:46

some decent deer .

1:48

Did you well a little

1:50

bit in a model . Uh , the what was the

1:52

new ? New firearm season ? Yeah , you and

1:54

mom did . What'd y'all say uh ?

1:56

we've seen a bunch of does and seen some

1:58

small basket racks , but it was

2:00

still hot . You know it was a little hot . You know

2:02

it's hot . I wish it was cooled down a little bit . You know , I

2:04

think last it was a little hot . You know it was hot . I wish it was cooled down a little bit . You know

2:06

, I think last year it was a little cooler Well this time , yeah , yeah for the muzzleloader . It

2:08

seems hot this year .

2:09

It is man . It ain't rained either .

2:11

And it's super dry . Yeah , super dry

2:13

, dude , it ain't rained none . We

2:15

hunted yesterday

2:19

, 85 degrees , and

2:21

we got out there and it started sprinkling

2:24

.

2:25

Oh man I know , I actually was so mad I didn't even

2:27

know .

2:27

the rain was there , what's ?

2:28

the chances .

2:31

It was hot and dry and all of a sudden it gets cold and rain . Yeah , like somebody got

2:33

that wrong .

2:34

Well , that's Daryl's forecast for you . Yeah

2:37

, you definitely went off my weather app .

2:39

Yeah , let's throw this thing back to when we went

2:41

to colorado , because we just got back not too long ago

2:43

, yeah , and we all three killed

2:45

yeah , I killed first

2:47

, then uh , the daryl killed , and

2:49

then you killed last but not least me .

2:51

I mean like reverse , or you're on the kills more

2:55

like a wafer now up

2:57

.

2:57

So going into your kill , right , so you ain't ever killed before

3:00

no , that's my first either no , I haven't either

3:02

, so neither one of y'all killed until this year . Yeah

3:04

, yeah yeah , I'm

3:06

like that bull right there I was over

3:08

two .

3:09

I was two strikes down going in this hunt and

3:11

you were still trying to bow hunt at the beginning .

3:13

Yeah , I'm gonna talk about that . Tell me why you were so driven

3:16

to bow hunt was it because maybe you went on the first .

3:18

The first two days you took the bow out there like

3:20

dude . Why do you waste your time on man ?

3:22

it's just like you just want to do it . It's like

3:25

you got to prove to yourself and you got so close . Yeah

3:27

, so many times it wasn't like I was not even getting close

3:29

. It's like I was first time I shot

3:31

one and couldn't find it . Second time it was 25 yards and I couldn't

3:34

get

3:43

a shot .

3:43

I did get how far away is he Like 1,000

3:46

yards .

3:46

I'm not bringing the gun to him , yeah .

3:49

You know what it was Like ? He had his crouch walking , crawling

3:52

. You know those sand birds in my hand and stuff

3:54

, yeah . And then he's like

3:56

he looks back at it . He's like as soon as he crossed that ridge , full

3:58

sprint .

3:59

And I'm like with all this it's

4:02

hot out here in the moment , you're like , oh , yeah , yeah , yeah

4:04

.

4:04

And then soon you turn around and you're like , oh , man , dude

4:07

as soon as we took off running , I'm thinking like we're gonna run like 100 yards . I

4:09

look over there to like where the next ridge , where they went down

4:11

, and I'm like there's no way I can make it all

4:18

the way over there .

4:19

But then , like I didn't say that , yeah , I'm like uh

4:22

no , it was rough terrain though , like the sand

4:24

was kind of . It was kind of rough though

4:26

.

4:26

I mean , isn't it hard to believe the elk live there

4:28

? I mean , that's how tall the

4:31

bushes were .

4:32

It was crazy and you just see them out there walking around

4:34

like it was no big deal .

4:35

But what's even more crazy ?

4:37

I mean , they disappear out there and all of

4:39

a sudden he'd go like 50 yards and he's

4:41

gone . How did they disappear in ?

4:42

there . So I was told when we were there

4:45

, which I didn't know this but elk were primarily

4:48

a prairie animal

4:50

, so they were just roaming the prairies

4:52

and since people and pressure

4:55

came in to kind of push them up in the mountains , but

5:00

they were primarily prairie animals .

5:01

Well , these guys said that these elk came

5:03

from the mountains because you could tell by their hooves

5:05

. Right , Right , right .

5:07

I'm talking about just If

5:09

their hooves were dug out , they stayed

5:11

down low in the sand . Mostly . If

5:13

their hooves were hard , they stayed in the mountains Hard . What

5:15

do you mean hard Like ? If it was like not

5:17

Like if it didn't have the cup in the inside , if it wasn't like cut

5:20

oh , inside it was cut like eight out . They were like sand

5:22

scoops , dude , yeah , oh . I

5:24

got you if they weren't ? If you kill one and they

5:26

weren't like just flat , then that means that it was and

5:29

they were , they'd be kind of broken up too .

5:31

Yeah , so did you guys notice .

5:32

Did you guys notice our bulls were sand

5:35

bulls or mountain bulls ? All of them were sand

5:39

bulls .

5:40

Uh , they'll have darker antlers , yeah because they thought george

5:42

was a mountain bull for a second because our darkest antlers

5:44

were , but his holes were eight out .

5:46

I'll be dang your bull was more uh in

5:49

between . And what's crazy about ?

5:50

out . Here is 2024 . You dug out , you

5:52

know , you know . You dug down in the in the

5:54

sand , so cool that

5:57

it was cold . Yeah , it was down below

5:59

, so I guess these bulls would get in the sand

6:01

and dig a hole . They'll lay in it , yeah

6:03

makes perfect sense .

6:04

It's crazy , I think . What blew my mind

6:06

was just how open , how far you could

6:08

see , and you're like there is

6:10

no way there's there's any elk

6:13

out there , and you throw them binos up and

6:15

all of a sudden one cow will stand up and they're

6:17

like , well damn there's 80 right there , yeah

6:19

, yeah , well , the out of nowhere you know

6:21

, the f-16s or f-18s ?

6:24

Yeah , I don't know what they were F-16s or F-18s .

6:25

They were jets . They were jets yeah .

6:26

They would fly over and all the elk

6:29

would stand up .

6:29

Yeah .

6:30

Like crap Like

6:32

oh my God , it's funny you say that because

6:34

, like going back like day four , we

6:41

had seen this big bull in . He was and he bedded down

6:43

, he's hidden . We walked like three

6:45

miles into this big mound where

6:48

we could kind of see pretty good , and

6:50

we're sitting there and we're like man , it would be nice

6:52

if a jet would fly back over and dude , it was like

6:54

10 minutes later we could hear one coming

6:56

. We're like oh , get everybody , get ready , get ready . We thought the bull

6:58

was gonna stand up somewhere .

7:00

Yeah , they had some kind of training facility somewhere around

7:02

there and they kept flying jets around .

7:04

Yeah , it's pretty cool and anyways

7:06

, the jet flies over and we're glassing , glassing , glassing

7:09

, glassing , just hoping we can find , you know , get eyes

7:11

back on this big bull we seen and man

7:13

nothing . So we walked like the

7:15

three miles back out and we did that like

7:17

two days in a row .

7:20

Yeah , went's how mine was . We got way up and

7:22

seen him from like two miles away and we went in there

7:25

. We couldn't find him . Once we got to where they thought

7:27

he was somewhere in . You know they were looking

7:29

around . Then they're like we just gotta hope something stands

7:31

up . And we look over our left and one just stood up Right

7:33

there .

7:34

Yeah .

7:34

And then he , like , lays immediately back down .

7:39

We're like what that yeah ?

7:40

yeah , then you start glassing just for antlers .

7:42

You'll see their antlers yeah , that's how you killed your

7:44

bull yeah , they've actually seen yours .

7:46

Yeah , we've seen the antlers sticking above the uh

7:48

the brush when , oh crap , there he is

7:50

.

7:50

So yeah , it's kind of like they're like looking for a tire , yeah

7:53

. So so we got a little bit closer a little

7:55

bit closer when we sat down . We just waited it

7:57

was so hot yeah so

8:00

hot .

8:00

yeah , I was like , oh my god , terrible . This

8:02

is so hot , I guess it's worth it

8:04

.

8:05

Yeah .

8:09

So we waited and waited and finally stood up and boom , I shot

8:11

and missed , right out , missed . I was like that's on me , that's

8:13

on me Bad shot , bad shot , bad shot .

8:14

It's funny because he shot and so

8:16

keep in mind , guys , he's shooting a .28 nozzle with

8:19

a muzzle . So

8:28

when he shoots , dude about , knocks my damn hat

8:30

off , it blew my hair

8:32

and the microphone the camera is like yeah

8:35

, yeah .

8:35

In the video you can see his shockwave

8:37

, his cheek , it's like yeah yeah

8:40

, dude , I got smoked I couldn't hear nothing

8:42

.

8:42

Dude , I'm like just trying to be as still

8:44

as I could , I flat out missing .

8:46

I got so shook up I just missed . I mean like

8:48

as soon as I pulled the trigger , that's

8:51

on me , my fault . Hold on

8:53

, hold on , put another round

8:55

in there . I smoked it , but

8:57

the first one it was definitely on me

8:59

. I was all shook up .

9:01

Yeah , I don't know why

9:03

I was calm , he was there . So we were

9:05

there like 45 minutes before the bull stood up , but he

9:07

was calm , I was calm , but then as soon as

9:09

he stood up , it was like so you

9:11

see , those horns pop up in the scope

9:13

.

9:13

It just kind of does something . It's like , oh god , it's like

9:15

it's real , it's really here now . Oh man , it

9:17

hit me like a ton of bricks , man

9:19

.

9:19

I'm like I was looking at the scope

9:21

, just practicing . You know I'm steady

9:24

. It's dead meat . That thing stood up . Oh

9:27

damn , this is real

9:29

.

9:31

You know how you have that voice in your head when

9:33

you first put the animal in the scope , dude , and you're

9:35

all excited and everything in your mind . You're

9:38

kind of floating around . Something in your

9:40

mind just tells you to pull the trigger . You've got to

9:42

fight that dude and say hey , no , dumbass

9:44

.

9:44

Don't pull the trigger .

9:45

Actually aim .

9:46

Yeah , anyways , I threw a Hail

9:48

Mary out there , did

9:57

not connect first shot . I had to put another one in there and

9:59

got her done the second time . The beast guy here beast got over there in cycles so

10:01

you didn't miss it .

10:02

Just yeah , hold on , hold on , it's not over yet I

10:05

think I think the funniest to me was like not

10:07

funny , but to me the most stressful part was like b

10:09

scott's elk kill .

10:10

yeah , you know because yeah , we were watching it

10:12

from the top .

10:12

We were watching everything Like there's nothing we could do to help

10:14

you at this point except watch and just go .

10:17

We were nervous for him bad , you

10:19

know .

10:19

I realized like 200 yards into

10:22

the walk I was like , okay , we still got a long

10:24

ways to go and it's getting

10:26

dark , like

10:37

it's the evening time . I was like man , by the time we get in position , if it doesn't go right , we're not gonna have enough time

10:39

to walk back to the truck and have another game plan . this is the game plan . Yeah , this is it . It's now or never

10:41

. Yeah , and that would have that had me really nervous , uh . And

10:44

then when it came down to making a shot and

10:46

stuff , it just happened so fast

10:48

and we didn't did so much crawling and walking

10:50

and just everything

10:52

in between . Like , when I got there I was out of breath

10:54

. So when I had to sit down and get on the thing and they were moving

10:56

to the left dude , I didn't have a second to catch them breath

10:59

, I was out of breath , yeah . So

11:01

I did what any great hunter would do I shot him around the spine

11:03

On

11:06

accident , though I didn't shoot him in the spine but

11:18

shoot . well , but I did shoot with a spine , listen , and I know , like in our little

11:20

black room interviews .

11:21

You know I said I dropped them . That's not a lie . I did drop my bull with a spine shot , but which

11:23

ain't the best , I agree . But but but well , what could have happened ? What

11:25

could have happened ? Uh , we ranged the bull at 300

11:28

yes , it

11:30

was moving . It could have been closer than 300

11:32

. Right , it could have been okay . And

11:34

you know , when you dialed up , when

11:37

you shoot for this elevation , and

11:39

right after we shot you know the

11:41

guy said did y'all shoot ? Y'all's gun is elevation

11:43

?

11:43

we're like no , so you know

11:45

, imagine trying to pull that off .

11:47

So I think that that elevation I

11:50

think we learned something there , because all of our guns shot

11:52

high , you know , because

11:55

clearly I shot above my elk

11:57

or something .

11:59

I almost want to say you had a blank .

12:02

I don't know . I

12:05

mean , I dialed up at 300 yards and

12:07

I didn't touch that thing . So you

12:09

know , I dropped her down in the pump station

12:11

, though .

12:12

Dude , that follow-up shot , that was on point .

12:13

Well , I ain't touch that thing , so you know , I dropped her down in the pump station , though , dude , that follow-up shot , that was on point . Well , I didn't blow

12:15

that time . I mean I was . I could you know , I settled

12:17

my crosshairs too . I wouldn't sew

12:20

all over the place . I was like I

12:22

was like hair , no hair , hair , no hair , hair

12:24

no hair . I was like what the hell , this is an elk , you

12:26

Calm down . But

12:29

anyways , I think the elevation

12:31

, I think we dialed up . I mean , did

12:33

you dial up ? No , of course you didn't , you shot

12:35

.

12:35

How far was it ? I was like 75 yards

12:37

. What I thought , it was like 150 . I mean

12:39

I'm over here like , yeah , I didn't have that problem .

12:41

You could have . I mean , you could have hit the thing blind

12:43

, probably , I know , did you no

12:47

?

12:47

were you nervous ? Yeah , I was nervous

12:49

okay . I was close . You made I

12:51

would arguably you know you made the best shot . What's

12:54

even crazier is that I

12:56

did shoot my one shot technically you did .

12:58

I followed up . Give me

13:00

the uncles right at the pump station .

13:01

There you go . But you know , what we did realize

13:03

is that I had my . The scope was dialed

13:05

up to 15 at an 80 yard shot

13:08

. You noticed that before the shot

13:10

, after the shot like the magnification was

13:12

oh yeah , that's why the bull was looking like

13:14

we looked at like oh my god , it's giant

13:16

that's what I really had

13:19

to realize that , oh , that you shot .

13:20

You shot for a specific hair .

13:22

Yeah , you aim small and miss

13:24

small yeah , but then we got back to the lodge or to the

13:26

truck and I handed the . They got my gun and was putting

13:28

a truck for me and they were like you know

13:30

, your scope's magnified to 15 . I'm like

13:33

you know , actually I did not know that

13:35

but , but , but look where

13:37

we're at .

13:37

Yeah , we won today aren't you glad

13:39

you decided to pick the raffle up and put your

13:41

bow down just for this experience ?

13:43

yeah , yeah , I mean for sure I mean it was , it was

13:45

a good experience and , like I was saying , like

13:47

that they'll find out later on , it's like like

13:49

I bow hunted , I mean I elk hunted what ? 18

13:52

days .

13:52

Yeah , yeah , it's so hard

13:55

to kill one . It's hard to kill a mature

13:57

buck with a bow . Yeah , I mean Elk's

13:59

the same way . Elk's the same way .

14:01

But there's nothing wrong with shooting a rifle because it's so much like

14:03

. These bulls are still like smart . Like

14:07

you shouldn't want to In these cows . 300 yards is not

14:09

easy at all .

14:09

No , it's not In these cows too . Yeah

14:12

, if they know something's up , them cows will

14:14

get around that bull and there is

14:16

no window to shoot .

14:18

It's like your bull . You had an opportunity

14:20

to shoot a bull the day before . I think

14:22

the bull gets up , we get onto

14:25

the bull right , we sit down , the bull

14:27

gets up . It

14:39

gets up and it's a good bull . I think it's bigger than the bull you actually killed . It was and , um , the cows get up . It's like the cows surrounded the bull and when the bull

14:41

walked , away .

14:42

The cows just stayed around the bull the whole time he never got a clean shot window , the whole I'm thinking secret

14:44

service .

14:44

They need to apply for secret service because they all

14:46

did a good job . These cows are good

14:49

. I mean you can't shoot this bull . I mean without shooting

14:51

the cow , I mean they did a good job . These cows are good . I mean you can't shoot this bull

14:53

. I mean without shooting the cow , I mean they did a good job , yeah .

14:54

Oh , I know , these cows were all up in the way I'm like damn it , he's

14:57

just going to shoot through the cows . It's kind of too like

14:59

when those bulls are asleep , you know you see them

15:01

asleep .

15:08

There's cows around every . He didn't care

15:10

, he didn't know , he had

15:12

nothing bothering him . Each one of them cows were

15:14

like something's going on .

15:16

No , it's like it's always a cow staring

15:18

at you . I'm like , oh , we got a cow looking at us . We got a

15:20

cow looking at us . There's 15 of them

15:22

out there and

15:28

one's just eyeballing us .

15:29

I'm like how does she's just trying to boy with us ? I know

15:31

she sees me . She don't know she's looking right at me

15:33

, I can see her .

15:34

I think that's what made it worse for my like . When I shot my bull

15:36

, he said the scope was so zoomed in Me and the

15:38

bull were like eye to eye for a minute . Wait

15:45

for him to stand up , like he's looking at me and

15:47

seasoning yeah , hey

15:49

, nothing , and it's just like getting stared down by a buck

15:51

.

15:51

It's , you know , by his body

15:54

language when he knows something's

15:56

up . Yeah , he's just sitting there staring at me and I'm standing here like oh

15:58

god . You're like uh-oh , this ain't good . He's saying

16:00

good . Then that foot comes up and it goes a little

16:02

bit behind . You're like oh shit , he's fixing to turn yeah

16:04

, and then two seconds .

16:05

I got two seconds .

16:06

He's out of there well , you know , you know talking

16:09

about animals seeing you , like

16:11

me and your mama was hunting Saturday

16:13

and we're sitting on the ground on this new property

16:15

and every time a doe

16:17

would come up she would just look

16:20

at us . I'm like , how

16:23

does she know we was here ? Yeah

16:25

, she's seeing you . We had four or five does come

16:27

up , whereas , like sitting on

16:29

a ridge , these deer would come up and

16:31

they would just soon as they get out and open

16:34

, they would look right at me . I'm like

16:36

it's funny . Look , look

16:39

away . I won't even make eye contact

16:42

with it .

16:42

Yeah , I'm like it's crazy , though with a little

16:44

bit of cover what it'll what it'll do , because

16:46

I have a video of this doe walking

16:48

straight to my tree . That's the same

16:51

property , new property and it's walking

16:53

straight to me and it gets probably eight

16:55

yards away and I'm only like eight foot

16:57

off the ground , because it's so thick leaved

16:59

where I'm at I can't get off the ground hardly

17:02

, so I'm literally just like eight foot off the ground

17:04

. This doe walks all the way up

17:06

to me and then all of a sudden she probably

17:08

gets I don't know eight yards away . She

17:10

just sees that there's something in this

17:12

tree and she like darts off real

17:14

quick and then she stops and she turns around . She still doesn't

17:16

know what's up , cause she didn't really see me , but

17:19

she just , I think she just felt

17:21

that I was there , yeah , and just looked at me and just felt

17:23

that something was there and she darted off

17:25

like that fast .

17:26

But the problem is , all these , even

17:28

these elk , I mean , when they see something like

17:30

deer have this memory so these

17:34

deer are used to seeing something . It

17:36

doesn't matter what it is , but I mean they're

17:38

seeing something when they go somewhere , right

17:41

? Yeah and you just put one thing

17:43

in their way , or or

17:45

in their little bedroom , whatever you want to call it , and

17:47

they just act stupid yeah yeah

17:49

, actually they're smart . Yeah , make it normal we're

17:52

the stupid ones , because we're the one that sticks

17:54

out you know .

17:55

And one thing about some does . I got a question

17:57

about what you know how they say , like there's

17:59

a tree that falls and nobody's around

18:02

to hear it , does it make a sound ? Yeah , do , does

18:04

just run around blowing

18:11

and stuff .

18:12

I feel like they have to blow other stuff , like there's gotta

18:14

be something that makes them feel like because every time I hear

18:16

a doe blowing , I'm like I always ride

18:18

on my that's she's blowing to me .

18:19

When I hear deer blowing , I always ride on horns or

18:21

something together . Yeah , I do too , you know , but

18:24

you know . Getting back to the elk , though , who

18:26

shot the biggest elk ? It was the daryl's

18:28

.

18:28

I don't know . It's kind of between y'all . I know it for sure

18:30

was not me I don't

18:32

know .

18:33

I think your bowl's bigger than mine . I don't know .

18:35

It looks bigger .

18:36

We haven't measured . It

18:39

looks thicker than mine for sure . I don't

18:41

know you

18:47

look pretty happy there .

18:48

Darryl , I think your fronts were longer . I think your front like

18:51

mine .

18:51

No , I don't think so . I think it's backwards . I think yours is

18:53

wider than mine . Well then , yours was thicker

18:55

, kind , I don't know , like

18:58

thicker , I don't know . I think it looks bigger

19:00

. I think you won man .

19:02

Look at him smiling out there though .

19:06

Oh he's happy , relieved too . I know your lips look dry

19:08

. I'm exhausted , for sure . Your lips are

19:10

definitely dry dude them .

19:11

Lips were dry because I came back to me like a week

19:13

and a half to get over the whole lip . Your lips are almost

19:15

as wide as your teeth I know , that's what I'm saying . They were dry

19:18

like just look

19:20

at that . I was like he needs the water . Bad

19:22

somebody get there was definitely dying at

19:24

that point it was hot out there

19:26

at that point we were 16 monsters deep .

19:28

Zero h2o , yeah , no water

19:30

stress , the only water that we got probably like 10

19:33

at that point yeah , those

19:35

guys were asking us how we making drinking all these

19:37

monsters . We're like I don't know man , we're just just

19:39

monsters are good man just

19:41

will the heart to win .

19:43

And the worst thing was , like your dad's kill , we're trying to

19:45

clean that thing

19:47

. Cactus in a cactus bed Killed it in the worst spot

19:49

ever .

19:51

And I want to think where he shot and missed was probably

19:53

the most smooth , soft sand

19:55

. It would just fell right there . And then he shoots it and kills it

19:57

in a cactus bed .

19:58

Look at the sand in that thing it's like it's

20:00

killing elk on the beach . Yeah , it's

20:03

just . It's hard to pack meat out like

20:05

that . Yeah because you can't get no sand in the meat , no

20:07

greedy

20:12

. So after the zelka we had a really successful kind , we had a good time , we drove the truck all

20:14

the way back from carl ronald , that was fine . All y'all slept and I drove okay

20:17

, no , no reword that .

20:18

I slept the first like three hours and

20:20

then I was up the rest of the time .

20:22

Yeah , well , we flew there . You slept about

20:24

seven , you know you definitely got a whole .

20:26

You got a whole night I think while y'all got

20:28

done killing on like day two and three , I

20:30

had to hunt till day five .

20:31

Well , I know , but anyways , I mean

20:33

I still drove most of the way , but you

20:35

know we flew there , it was real pretty . Then we had

20:37

to drive back .

20:38

Yeah .

20:39

Beautiful mountains it was . It was really

20:41

pretty we were in a place .

20:43

I don't know if you got the out the airplane window

20:45

, do you have it up there , but

20:48

anyways , we were like kind of in a valley , you

20:50

know , and it seemed like this side of the valley

20:52

was real sandy and he said the

20:54

other side ain't so sandy . Yeah , all

20:56

the sand kind of piles up with the wind , you know yeah

20:59

, but I don't know .

21:00

All the bulls are in the sand , so I'll take me back . Dude

21:02

, I ain't never seen something like that .

21:03

I don't know right now , 10 days before , that I get the

21:12

mountains .

21:13

We're gonna kill some deer , but the elevation is a little bit different

21:15

. I don't know so .

21:16

So what do you gotta do , daryl ? I know that the other day he's

21:19

he came to the leash right we're hunting , and

21:21

he just texted me . Hey , man , I just dropped

21:23

my bow out of the tree . I said surely

21:26

you mean like I dropped my bow , release out of the tree

21:28

. And he's like , no , I dropped my actual

21:30

bow .

21:31

Oh my god , daryl you know

21:33

what's bad is ? I walk all the way in there , because

21:36

me and scott said we got to park up here . We walk all the way in

21:38

there . So I'm already kind of like a little bit further than

21:40

elk hunting . Yeah , so I walk all the way down

21:42

there . Gotta be safe he's like he's like you just go

21:44

down there , you'll find where you put the hunt . So I'm like , all right

21:46

, cool , just not pick a tree . I'm like , I'm

21:48

not , kind of like , is that the right tree ? Is it not the right tree ? And I

21:50

see a camera , I'm like it's gotta be the right tree . So I

21:52

climb up there . I put I . So

21:54

I forgot to tell you this part . Sorry , I tell you

21:56

this , I didn't tell you all that when I was there . Okay , so

21:59

I try like a different little loopy . So I'm

22:01

trying to be lazy on like the bottom step instead

22:03

like undoing all the string oh

22:06

, no I just did a little bit of the string and

22:08

it tied up , oh my . God . So I

22:10

climb up . Fine , you know , get

22:12

up there . And I'm like kind of struggling and like get

22:14

the last thing up there and you know whatever . So I get up there and

22:17

I'm trying to the way I dropped my bow , I was reaching over

22:19

here and I heard something to my left . I thought so

22:25

I was trying to reach and look , dude , you

22:28

just pushed it right off . Yeah , I just pushed it right off and I

22:30

just and I'm like , oh

22:32

great , and I'm looking and I'm like all right

22:34

, and I forgot my little tree

22:36

to bring my boat up . So I had to put my

22:38

boat on the backpack to get it up there , right . So

22:42

I'm like , all right , how am I going to do this ? So

22:44

then I come all the way back down and

22:47

when I get to like the last step , to get on

22:49

top of the last step , it just goes out

22:51

from under me because , like the way I tried to tie it .

22:53

Yeah , you halfway tied it because it was the last step

22:55

so then it just falls .

22:56

So I just go down the tree , you know , just slide down

22:58

and I'm like , oh my god , defeated

23:00

. Yeah , at that point I thought about like leaving

23:03

, like is this one should

23:06

be over . But then steps are up there , platform and backpack

23:08

still up there . So I'm like , you know , soon

23:11

I grab my bow and I'm

23:13

like , how am I gonna get this bow

23:15

back up the tree now ? Because , you know , I

23:17

carried up there my bags . I didn't have my bow rope , yeah

23:19

, my backpack's on top of the tree . So

23:22

I'm like , how'd you get up there ? Well

23:24

, I took my safety , my lineman's

23:26

belt . Yeah , undid , it hooked

23:28

the bow into my lineman's belt and I had

23:30

to climb up with it like that , which was the worst process

23:32

ever , because every time I take a step , my foot's in my bow

23:35

Gosh dude , so then I get

23:37

back up there and I drop my

23:39

release . I

23:41

would have packed up dude , I just I would see anything

23:43

.

23:43

I would have climbed down and just threw myself out of the tree .

23:45

So then I climb right down and get my release .

23:47

So I climbed the tree three times

23:50

Do you even see him dude ? Yeah , yeah , you

23:52

had some does come in . Yeah , I was tired

23:54

, I bet you were .

23:55

You know , dropping your release I'm

23:57

no stranger to dropping my release Was that the first bowhunter

24:00

of the year for you ?

24:01

No , how all this happened . Second one You're

24:03

normally .

24:04

That's only my first time in a saddle . It's

24:06

his first saddle six , so

24:17

that man's a whole different . My release okay . So now what I do is when I get out of the truck I tie it to my wrist and

24:19

and turn it around .

24:19

That's usually what I do . But you know , I didn't know that I cannot drop it . I got three releases

24:23

in my back .

24:23

I have two releases do it falls down so

24:25

so we're going to talk about . All right , so so

24:28

we did a little bit deer hunting here , and now we're about to go to north

24:30

arkansas and we're about to look at that .

24:31

oh , that was actually awesomeigator . That was actually awesome

24:34

Jay , paul and them . Yeah , we got some people .

24:36

Tell us about the Alligator hunt , yeah . So

24:38

we got a phone call from my

24:40

buddy Hunter down there in Louisiana . He said hey do y'all boys

24:42

don't happen to want to kill some gators .

24:47

And I'm like don't tempt us with a good time .

24:48

How much he's , it was like 16

24:51

tags , wasn't it ?

24:51

yeah , 18 , 18 tags .

24:53

That's crazy . I was like , well , we'll be there . What's a good

24:55

day is good . He's like how fast you gonna get here and I'm like two

24:58

days probably or less two

25:00

days or less , and so we drove down

25:02

there and I mean that was fun , we got to go down there with J-Paul

25:04

it was an absolute blast . They

25:12

were great people , no normal nice guys just

25:14

super humble .

25:15

Yeah , I mean , these guys are like exactly

25:17

what you would expect . They're

25:19

not worldwide , they're

25:23

a father and son duo that's humble and just happy to do what they're doing . Yeah .

25:25

They seem a lot nicer than

25:28

their relationship , than my new relationship

25:31

.

25:31

We only bump heads because we

25:33

think the same way . You're so

25:35

hard , but think differently .

25:37

You won't listen you know , I

25:39

don't know , dude , we got some monster gators , though I mean , the big

25:41

one was what ? Two and a half foot .

25:42

Yeah , don't forget , remember when he had he said

25:44

, he said he said this one's a uh , gotta

25:46

make sure this one's not a pet gator .

25:48

He was being hands dad the road . He

25:50

was being serious about the pet gator . I'm like we're gonna

25:52

call it a pet gator

25:54

.

25:55

And next thing , you know I was like he's like wait , let me tie it to the boat

25:57

first . I'm like what tied to the boat ain't that heavy ? So

25:59

you'll see , we're gonna tie it to the boat , yeah , I mean .

26:01

so he ties his string to the boat , right

26:03

, he's a little , ties it up there and he

26:05

hands a rope to dad and this gator's chilling

26:07

, right , and he said , pull him up

26:09

. And so dad starts pulling his gator up

26:12

and then all of a sudden it's like a switch

26:14

flip , dude , and this gator I'm talking about started wearing

26:17

his ass out . Okay , and

26:19

I'm standing behind dad with a gun , you

26:21

know , and dad's over here , dude , he's getting like low

26:24

with it . I'm giving him like the daddy

26:26

reach around , you know , like grab him by

26:28

the waist , like hey , you're not going in , dude .

26:36

I got you . This gator was tearing him up , though I'm surprised they

26:38

didn't push me in . Eat that son of a bitch he's a pain in my ass .

26:40

That gator was like pulling . He was shaking the boat . I was

26:42

like , oh , he's going to pull this boat around you know what Jay Paul

26:44

said .

26:44

That gator is like if he would have been one foot more

26:47

, you know , because one foot at that length

26:49

would have

26:51

been a hand burner , maybe sky hard

26:54

to hold . You got the smallest alligator too well

26:57

, you know . Actually , to point that out , dude

26:59

actually shot the two biggest ones .

27:01

I was the one to pull the trigger on those two , I mean look

27:03

, hey , I

27:05

got to say though I you know all the alligators

27:07

mine and daryl's

27:09

probably the biggest , but I

27:11

look like I got bigger muscles than you guys there

27:13

. Look , look at me .

27:16

Look , you obviously ain't looking at the same

27:18

damn screen . I'm looking at no man .

27:20

I mean like oh never

27:22

mind .

27:23

Look at that forearm , look at that forearm .

27:25

Who's holding Gator Hunt ? I didn't hold a Gator like that .

27:27

You're probably glad you didn't dude . They

27:29

throw that stuff up .

27:31

Look at that His Sleeman . It has that

27:33

puking out of his mouth right there . That

27:35

stuff stinks so bad ?

27:37

Sorry , don't know . If you do go gator hunting

27:39

, they start throwing up .

27:42

Good luck . Don't touch it . It stays on your hand

27:44

. I had to burn it off my hands . It

27:46

took a while to burn it off

27:48

.

27:48

It's horrible . I scrubbed my hands

27:50

, scrubbed my hands . I was trying to eat dinner later that night and

27:52

I just I was like man

27:55

, somebody else needs to feed me because my hands are stinky

27:57

. Dude , those are dinosaurs .

27:58

You know we killed all those gators , right , and it

28:00

was fun , we had a blast , but

28:02

we ended up putting 12 gators and

28:05

three people in the Freedom Rig , yeah

28:07

, and it got on pad and ran good

28:09

Like it was crazy

28:12

. It was crazy . We put four people in it , it still did it

28:14

. It just took a long time . But I mean , it don't matter what you do .

28:16

It took a long time to get on pad , but what I was blown away

28:18

with was the fact that it was still running the

28:20

speeds it was running yeah . I mean dude , it

28:22

was loaded down with 12,000

28:25

people . The .

28:25

Freedom Motor is like like

28:28

every time we use it in situations like this , it's

28:30

getting better and better and better .

28:32

It's just so hard for people to understand what's really

28:34

going on yeah , we're traveling everywhere

28:36

that people might would even think about using it right now

28:39

and using it and it's working out Louisiana we

28:41

had an example , I'm gonna we

28:43

had a mud buddy there , we had

28:45

a pro drive there and and it

28:47

did good .

28:48

I mean , it ran good . I mean those

28:50

two motors that pro drive and getter

28:52

tail has been proven for a long time or

28:55

Mud Buddy or Gator Tail All

28:57

of them are good motors . But

28:59

those motors have been in the market for

29:01

a long , long time and they're definitely proving

29:03

themselves . But for this freedom to come

29:06

in like this and do what it's doing as an

29:08

outboard and heavy-duty- outboard it's

29:10

pretty impressive .

29:11

I think I mean the whole time . You know me and Dad's

29:13

riding in the Mud Buddy rig and we're

29:16

watching you up there . Y'all are just having a casual

29:18

conversation .

29:19

Yeah , me and Brandon are yelling .

29:21

I'm like I wish we could do that right now , yeah

29:23

.

29:24

And you know , even like J-Paul and them , they

29:26

were saying how , like the Freedom Rig was like a more

29:28

what they would need , they could probably kill more

29:30

g gators because how quiet it is and be able to sneak around

29:32

the swamp yep because they shoot a lot with that 17

29:35

like the really , really big gators . Just they can creep

29:37

in there and get in there and shoot them , you know that's

29:39

true , yeah , you know . So you talk about people that that

29:41

are on the in the marsh , running boats

29:43

, working , working them every day

29:45

and they're saying they're like , oh , we need one of these rigs . We

29:47

need to legit get these rigs because it's beneficial

29:50

.

29:50

So we're about to get them all lined out . I mean we got more

29:52

props coming in . We're doing we're still doing a lot of

29:54

testing . But for for uh out

29:56

of the box motor ready to go

29:58

, I mean it , you know , has a pretty

30:01

low pitch prop for for load capacity

30:03

for duck hunters and stuff . So it's

30:06

, it's a , it's a good rig . It's it's getting better

30:08

and better .

30:08

More we've uh run them and

30:11

learn about the rigs itself , you know and

30:13

then what I what I've noticed is because we've let

30:15

tons of people drive these boats , you know , going

30:17

here , going there , like hey , you run it

30:20

and see what you think , yeah , and what I've noticed is

30:22

people that run

30:24

, you know , surface drives , they run outboards

30:26

. They don't have any issue , just

30:28

jumping in and running it . Yeah , you know , because

30:30

it's so similar , it drives like an outboard . I mean

30:33

it's just .

30:33

I just think a lot of people are still just wondering

30:36

about it . You know , like , but you know

30:38

it's just going to take time . It's just going to take

30:40

time . And the guys that do get them , they're

30:42

like wow , this is so nice , but it's

30:44

just like everything else , it's going to take time . It's so

30:46

different than what people are used to about

30:50

this , you know I'm ready to deer hunt it me

30:52

too yeah I'm ready .

30:54

I'm ready to deer hunt .

30:55

It so bad so let's talk about our schedule . So we

30:57

have , uh , we have , um , our

30:59

next hunt is going to be well

31:01

, we got the north arctic salt hunt that's coming up . We're going

31:03

to hunt wednesday , thursday , friday and saturday . We got a couple

31:06

big bruisers pinned , you know , pinned

31:08

up or locked up or what I

31:10

hope they're tied up .

31:12

You want a chance of us .

31:13

We're going to have to tie them up , because every time I go in there

31:15

they disappear . Oh yeah .

31:17

It's okay , the zookeeper's there , the zookeeper

31:19

, the zookeeper who was I talking to .

31:21

It might have been his Q-tip

31:24

. I was like so Darryl

31:26

also has a nickname . Okay , it

31:30

is the zookeeper Wade's . Like yeah , he

31:32

gave himself that thing , dave . It doesn't look

31:34

like it's so funny . Has it took off yet ? Not

31:36

yet has anybody been like zookeeper

31:38

?

31:38

Not yet I got to

31:40

really promote it , you should put zookeeper on the side of your truck . I

31:43

really should Hashtag zookeeper , zookeeper

31:45

, but anyways . So we're going

31:47

to North Arkansas , right , we're taking the zookeeper

31:49

Boom , boom , okay , which I don't think that's going to

31:51

help us , but anyways , we're

31:54

going to go , I'm going to shoot like the biggest deer now

31:56

.

31:56

Yeah , the first day , dude , so I hope

31:58

you I'm gonna go kill double so we got some .

32:00

So we know you're not . So we got some bucks lined

32:03

out right on camera . We got like 15

32:05

cameras out there yep , we got some good bugs coming

32:07

through , yeah and uh and what I've noticed . So every

32:09

time we're out there , like the 14

32:12

out of 15 cameras all

32:14

14 are taking pictures while

32:16

we're out there and we're sitting on camera

32:19

15 and we're not seeing no deer .

32:21

I've only went out there once so I really think

32:23

they know we're there well

32:25

, I think , okay , okay , but I won't be honest

32:28

with you . Okay , don't , don't

32:30

get mad at me . Don't get mad at me . I

32:32

think where you messed up was . I seen

32:34

the game camera picture you walking in and

32:37

you walked in the same trail he walks in no

32:39

, no , no , no , you don't even know where the

32:41

deer's coming from .

32:42

I guess I did see . This is the part where you think you know

32:44

everything . I'm about to pull it up . No , you don't

32:46

have to , but anyways , um

32:49

, anyways , it was the easiest

32:51

trip anyway . So we're going to north arkansas , we're gonna kill some deer . We're

32:53

going to kill some deer , we're going to try to kill some bucks

32:55

. We're going to hunt hard for three days . We're going

32:57

to actually camp out there . We're not going home , we're

32:59

going to stay in the woods because we can't travel

33:01

out of the gravel . I didn't

33:04

know we were doing that .

33:04

Yes , we're camping .

33:09

Well , you don't like

33:12

sleeping in the woods . I

33:14

think I'd rather walk down the road two miles .

33:17

That's why .

33:17

I'm camping in the woods . I can stay

33:19

20 minutes away .

33:20

I actually don't sleep . Hey , we got tent

33:22

hammocks , we're gonna put them in the tree .

33:24

Well , after all the stuff you like talking about , we don't want

33:26

to camp with you anyways , so we

33:30

got our own tent

33:33

he's right .

33:35

He's right , he's pre-right over here . Hey

33:37

, it gets better . The older they get , it gets better . It gets

33:48

dad pre-ruts around and

33:50
