Deep, deep, deep in the Midwest. and doing a lot of bow hunting out here are incredible. I mean, I've never seen so many white-tailed deer

6:58 But with bow hunting, no. The first day. At 1.25, I got down, and as I'm getting my stuff, we climb all the way down from this tree. And young deer and old deer, they might as well be a different species. He was inside of like 25, 30 yards, walked right by me. remember thinking immediately, wow, this is a really intelligent, tuned in animal that knows

10:19 and this young deer came by and literally took a nap underneath us. I would say three weeks and ten intensely three don't even know that that don't pay attention to deer but deer grow antlers fresh and their horns start to harden, What is it made out of? of weird birds and stuff i just i've always been drawn to like nature shows and things along those

13:55 You're a goddamn... Are they antlers? with brushy hair and a waxy feeling coating deer need both protein and minerals to grow their It's really strange. I find that offensive. And I said, does it scrape off? I've been on a few hunts with Danish people and they'll shoot a buck. fairly developed. 5. But anyway, we're out the door at 5.30. Well, it's a tradition here? And it's, it's obvious, you know, the, the, when you talk to all the folks, the locals,

18:26 It's a great program to where people are allowed to shoot extra deer tags They also regulate the type of hunting you can do where mostly it's bow hunting in iowa Is Cam as deaf as I am? Yeah, mine ringing. your ears to ring. That's very kind of you People always ask me why I don't have cauliflower ears. happen sometimes boxers get it you can get it if somebody hits your ear if something hits your ear

21:53 Take your ears, folks. It's really, really common. They're not getting an earbud in. I'm going to take it. Yeah. Surprise! I'm making a prediction. and that issue is weight cutting. just really in physical discomfort and pain when they're cutting weight. And then even more worse And it's foolish. And a guy like Rafael Dos Anjos, who's one of the elite of the elite, before he lost to Eddie Alvarez, a lot of people, including me, were making the argument that he might be the best lightweight ever.

26:29 Just rolled him over. Just out backstage you know i just i just if that guy died let's imagine i mean god forbid right but That's what I'm saying. I think it's an old thing. She does it. Sheer strength The weight classes Like a title at 125. Yeah. I think if you built it, you'd have people coming from other countries weight and a heavy weight still but they didn't have anything lower than 170 so a lot of guys

30:32 You wouldn't be able to see Jose Aldo go on that reign of terror for all those years. And then I think really the trend of those 10-pound per weight class, that should exist in the men's division as well. 6-0 and stacking them up. Reorganize around. they were at one time they're not as jacked yeah Yeah, they're not as muscular. Yeah. And it kind of seems like maybe we aren't getting the same class of fighting at times.

33:27 He looks just as good after the USADA testing as he ever did. people they're walking around at their weight they should be in. Yeah. I think that would help the whole sport. If they could figure out how to do that, It's a ticking time bomb. Unfortunately, he eats like a madman too. time in his life started supplementing and you know taking it that off i got it man i'm taking

36:21 It's mental, and it's completely, for a guy like me, leak that was all in the first hour and a half just trying trying to get amped up, bro. I'm prepared, bro. If I don't practice four days a week, I get upset with myself. The one execution, the release of a perfect arrow, It's scarier. you're moving around and you're avoiding trouble. and months and months and months. Say for a tag in Iowa, super hard to get.

40:22 going on that's like a i mean that's like saying you're gonna be in a fight but we're only gonna give you one punch yeah each of you get gets one Yeah, 100-mile-an-hour fastball with razor blades at the end of it. this is like a it's like a meditation like a discipline and this incredibly difficult task, through it, you're trying to find the layers of the onion.

42:30 then there's an animal. And there's tremendous consequences. The last thing you want to do is see that arrow fly and there's tremendous consequences the last Because it's heavy mass with a very defined point. They were dropping these big steel staffs on them and everything was working. So it disperses its energy out. and you wouldn't even know it. Like if you were using your hunting setup and a heavy arrow with...

46:50 yeah that's funny that they thought it would be fine It does. times man they were cutting through chain mail with arrows that's what i mean that's why that's yeah so they reach over i've seen them do it but i didn't know they had a ring so most people they fingers you have the more repeatable it'll be that's guy's got a spoon he's using it looks Pretty badass. I haven't

49:58 Yeah, they were tremendous. I would have to say it's either going to be them or... I think it's the Mongols. Second millennium B.C. They had a specific type of bow, a recurved composite bow. The old Mongolian bows were used during the rule of Genghis Khan, I know. I've shot one And they said, well, traditionally, these were always shot off horseback.

52:54 That's ridiculous. I'm going to find it. How tall are you? I know. Well, that totally makes sense. archery is that people of any age can do it any age any type of stature we're going through i And I think that's the case with a lot of things. rewarding it is and how difficult We have to post that on Instagram. he's drawing the bow backward There's no doubt if you would want him on your team

57:12 I mean, if that's what you did, They killed 10% of the human population on Earth. The liberal estimates go as high as 70. I mean, life in 1200 was just particularly ruthless, right? And he believed that people who lived in tents And they were really crazy. We had some dinner. But that is what it is. I just keep listening to it over and over again I'm going to guess.

1:01:40 I'm not a historian. Oprah's crying. Okay. Hmm. You're right. but what we're shooting with it's amazing And regularly placing it in the 10 ring at 80 yards yeah i mean that is that's an incredible sophistication and technology and you're shooting 84 pounds yeah it's heavy with a 500 grain arrow and it's how john and i became friends uh we became friends because i went to hoyt and um

1:04:50 I'm like, it's so informative. Oh, that's funny. mountain bikes that have like assisted it's e it's an e-bike so it's um I never use those things with anything less than turbo. like in Montana and stuff. way up there and you start sweating. And then once you get there, then you're hunting. So you're not too much clothes on on the way up there. And you start sweating.

1:07:59 It kills more people than grizzly bears, rattlesnakes, mountain lions. This is an Under Armour shirt? backpackers and stuff wool has an amazing characteristics there's a lot of cool stories And obviously that was an extreme case. cotton socks it smells like someone died in my shoes it smells like there's a goddamn ecotastrophe So we're back at the hotel. And Sharon and I, we went and checked in. We're there maybe two hours. And Mike texts me, he says,

1:11:21 and I'm going to go over there and be like, hey, Joe, and I didn't take him serious when he was telling the truth. Like many times during this podcast, I've had to say, well, for people who don't know, that means this. and really hardcore for most of the time, Yeah. I always loved shooting team rounds. I got Because when I started, I was never taught properly.

1:15:27 I shot my first tournament it made me realize how bad of a hunter I was from a point of being able That's it. Until you've seen a bugling elk in the rut just foaming at the mouth and jizzing all over himself. Because somebody caught a really cool, like, you know, elk-like people, they have different voices. the stud of the ranch. it was watching watching all those little satellite bulls hang around this guy there's like a few like

1:19:00 But you know, everyone calls them like groaners. Check this out, dude. whoa it's like a moose thing. Yeah. It's an Irish elk. Wait. Because they'll give you a harpy eagle, which is the biggest eagle that exists today. What? Yeah, it's called H-A-A-S-T Eagle. Some people think that it wasn't necessarily that, but that the Maori ate everything that To the bottom, like before the face.

1:22:22 That looks like it's several thousand pounds. Like, in New Zealand, it's kind of weird because they don't have hunting tags or seasons for most of their animals. like people chasing down with their shitty arrows they barely penetrate look For all the haters out there about this hunting podcast, have we thoroughly enjoyed what we've been eating? Incredible.

1:24:43 I think wild pig hunting is one thing that almost everybody wants to do. He goes, yeah. You want to take me wild pig hunting? I go, fuck yeah, dude. Let's do it., yeah, I'd go wild pig hunting. I go, really? He goes, yeah. Shout out to Stacy. i don't know how i feel about that i go but you eat meat she goes i know she goes you should hunt a like a russian hog or something like a Russian boar, because like those,

1:27:02 It's crazy. their eyesight sucks but their scent their sense of smell is incredible yeah ridiculous yeah they That is so Texas. Next item on the agenda. 40 car accidents the first night like a goddamn platoon movie and they're they're hitting these pigs in the head as the pigs are running full clip. any normal farm animal we have a hierarchy of animals that will allow people to do that too

1:31:26 I don't think you'll ever get it unless you see giant packs of – You know, Adam Greentree, ourralia he uh he owns a mining company the mob like in the mafia like that's just a pack you know um a tribe a group a clan you know they I think in Africa it's like that, too. So it's probably, once you crossed over a mountain range or something like that, Yeah, I mean, it's a completely different culture, completely different language,

1:33:59 Before horseback. the same time yep that was our that was our return yeah no kidding that was weird i was literally Get a beach body? several states and a lot of different tags but I went 30 days with I all I ate was one meal a day. I'd eat a meal at night. That's all you ate? Because I was always in my backpack. Because if you shoot something, you're up all night.

1:38:06 But it totally sustained me when that's pretty hard beating on you, I just, a minimum of 30 minutes. I take new mood and i take um alpha brain And the new moods, I normally take four of those at night with that TPC Night Pack. I do a TPC night. Whoa. I'm glad. And I think it's really cool that you're developing like a program of specific things that you feel would benefit archers, give them shoulder stability, range of motion.

1:42:07 and then there's a lot of mass I'm only talking about 35 pounds. And I think it would be incredibly beneficial for stability of your front arm I realized this is stuff I'd use every day. And I really wanted something that. And I really wanted to go and, one, learn proper technique and learn different movements all the way around you know you're getting so much range in that shoulder joint and you're really having to

1:46:27 the drawing of the bow and also could only afford one, get a chin-up bar. You can watch the videos on YouTube by some doctors. like ancient primate genetics and ancient primate structure. And one thing primates, almost all of them have again. Yeah. So you're almost hanging to the point where you let your shoulders fully extend Do you remember the name of your video?

1:49:22 Strength training for perfect form in front bow shoulder. is a bunch of little instructional videos that you had put out on the proper way to use releases, Dude, you only did one podcast. And you guys will get it tomorrow. a place that taught you know it's it's hard it's hard to find a good archery school. And, I mean, we were talking about that today, about what archery clubs are like in England or in Europe.
