And then a week after that, he says,
this will change our lives.
And then he put in parentheses for the better.
So Steve is now excited.
And I ended up getting approved a budget here at MeatEater of $20,000 to buy a punt gun.
And as we talked about on that old podcast from December, Steve was interested when it was like four to $8,000.
So some strong negotiating by me to get us up to $20,000.
Okay, May of 2022, this is the day of the auction.
Again, $20,000 budget, not a penny more.
Rock Island has two punt guns up for auction.
First punt gun.
This was the one, if I just got to pick, like which one we were going to have, I would want the second one.
That's the one we ended up getting.
The first punt gun, it was a smaller model, less prestigious brand.
Rock Island estimated that it would sell for between $12,000 and $18,000.
I bid up to our ceiling of $20,000.
Two bidders blow right past me.
The gun sells for $25,000.
7,000 more than the high-end estimate.
