0:00.0	Happy Monday, everybody. Hope you're having a great day so far. In this episode, I
0:04.9	really wanted to focus on helping people feel confident for going on some sort
0:10.6	of backcountry hunt. You know, whether you're an eastern guy that wants to go out
0:14.8	west to start elk hunting in the backcountry or even if you're just somebody
0:18.7	that is interested in white-tail hunting closer to home, but you know, maybe
0:22.6	doing some overnight trips or something like that. The goal of this podcast is
0:26.3	just to help you get confidence in how to get some tags, how to have the
0:30.5	right gear, how to care for meat when you get something down in the backcountry,
0:34.6	and the guest for this episode is Mark Helsing. Mark works for Exo Mountain
0:40.4	Gear, and Exo makes the packs that we use when we're out west elk hunting or

0:49.4	cool because we cover a bunch of different topics and I think if you've listened
0:53.1	to this, it'll definitely help give you some confidence for getting out there
0:56.5	trying your first backcountry hunt. Before we get into the podcast, I just wanted
1:00.8	to let you guys know that we've built a complete list of our hunting gear on the
1:06.0	Go Wild hunting app. We're getting a lot of questions all the time about gear,
1:09.9	different stuff that we use when we're out in the field. So if you're
1:13.1	interested in seeing a complete list of our gear, you got to download the Go Wild
1:18.1	app. It's a free social media community for hunters and we've listed all of our
1:22.4	gear on the hunting public's profile. Go Wild is also just a fun place to chat
1:27.7	with other hunters, find tips, and you can even buy a gear. If you want to buy
1:31.6	some gear, you can use the discount code THP and that gets you an extra 10% off
