some things just inner into it that make you uncomfortable and that's where I think the

determination and the mindset comes at who you're going to complain to and if you're going to

complain through the whole trip you probably shouldn't have been going maybe.

Well welcome this is episode 180 and our guest is Mike Graves. I got an email from my class

fall. He shared some information basically about how he had put his pack to work and it was just kind

of a thank you email to us at Exo Mountain Gear. That's not what's important. Mike mentioned in

passing that he had hunted 37 days that season covering over 250 miles and the freezers were

full after he used his pack to get out several critters from the Backcountry. What's important

about that is Mike is 67. Yeah 67 is still hunting the Backcountry hard almost 40 days,

250 plus miles. Mike is still getting after it. So as soon as I got that email I really wanted

to talk to Mike and understand his journey, his story and how at 67 is he still hunting the

Backcountry as hard as he is. I ended up getting to talk with Mike on the phone, talked with Mike's

son as well. He has a ton of stories to share. This is a super entertaining conversation,

inspiring conversation and so much more. I know that you guys are going to enjoy this.

And speaking of the older guys getting after it we had a recent review from

Draban Joyner who's 69 and going on a Kodiac Goat Hunt this fall. How cool is that? Draban,

thanks for the review and iTunes. Send us your shipping information to podcasts at ExoMonger.com.
