Carrot Top

If you're hunting for food, like if I had to provide food for my family, I would 100% be hunting with a rifle.

Oh.

100%.

No questions asked if that's what I'm doing.

But what I'm doing is I'm trying to get meat with my hobby.

So my hobby is archery.

Calling it a hobby is a little disrespectful.

It sounds very corny, but it's almost like a spiritual journey.

Like you're going to the woods and you're sneaking up.

I'm doing it with a guide who's a good friend of mine, and we go together.

And we're sneaking up on these animals that are trying to avoid mountain lions and bears.

And you're getting within archery range of them and just –

launching a perfect arrow and that's how you're getting your food so every time you eat your food it's the best food in the world but you're also thinking how you got it like you worked hard for a whole year to prepare for it you train for it I do cardio for it I do weighted I carry a weighted backpack I put this fucking 45 pound plate on my back and I walk around for hours I do a bunch of shit with it these these different exercises just for hunting training well how how much is how close is archery range like how close you had to get to him

I'm comfortable anything inside 70 yards if I don't think the animal's moving a lot.

So if an animal's moving a lot, like in the rut, sometimes they're fighting other males, so they'll run at each other and they'll come back, and then you can't take a shot like that because they're not going to be there when you shoot the animal.

They're moving so fast.

It's not ethical.

With a rifle, you could.

With a rifle, you just need them to stop for a second.

Just stop for a second, ba-boom, and you got them.
