What is up, everyone? This is Jake Hofer with Exodus Trail Cambers. Thanks for tuning in to this week's

episode of Trail Cam Radio. It is a good one, and it is with Dan Infall and Mario Trippacante of the

Hunting Beast gear. And so this is from our most recent trip to Wisconsin, and we had the

opportunity to spend about a half a day with Dan. We headed over to his tax

dermis's studio and you get to see pretty much all the deer he's killed from over the years

for the most part. You get to hear some of his favorite stories and just see how impressive

it really is. So that will be on our YouTube channel later this year, probably around September or so.

So you'll want to be sure to keep an eye out for that.

After recording the White Tail Cribs episode, we headed over to the Hunting Beast Gear warehouse

and sat down with Dan and Mario and talked all about the development of their sticks,

the tree stand that is now available on their website and

just kind of got to learn the entire process from one product company to another.

It's cool to hear how this came to fruition and how long it took and how really awesome

this stand is when you get it in your hands.

When we showed up and saw the line of stands there and this is the first time I ever laid my hands on it. And I'm not a gear junkie. I'm really not. And to pick that up, it was just surprisingly light. And the platform was large. Just really cool. And it's fun to hear people solving issues for folks to have very specific needs for what they're doing.

And that's exactly what the stand is. I'm not going to spoil it anymore. You can hear it right from them. So let's go ahead and get right into it. But before we do, a couple quick announcements. The first one, the Velba Fest is like almost here. The details are going to be released on our email list. Head over to a website, sign up. if you haven't done so already if you've ever bought anything from us on the store we have your

email and it'll be sent out there. And then we'll be releasing the details and more detail here. Details and details. Anyways, enough of all this. Let's go ahead and get right into the episode. Let's go. Lights. Camera. Follow the trailer. Ready to shoot. If you know where a deer's betting and you know where he's eating, that deer should be dead. Camero! If you're passive on a deer, what you're doing is you're teaching. I've got $30 in the Michigan record book. Everyone but one has had at least one previous wound on his body. Some had as many as four. Trail can radio from the guys at Exodus. All right. We're live in Beast Gear Studio. How's the echo? I don't, I hear it, but I don't know what's going to turn out like. I think it's... Okay. I mean, it's the environment we're in, so...

Yeah, it's... Okay. It's a warehouse. It's... Well, yeah, indeed a warehouse. Lots of space. Yeah, we have Mario and Dan here. Thanks for inviting us into studio here, or I guess, warehouse. Dan, thanks for recording White Tail Cribs with us. No problem. We didn't get a hear it in action.

So I'm excited to check it out.

There's some suspense there. four recording white tail cribs with us. No problem. We were, uh, we didn't get a here, here in action.

So I'm excited to check it out. There's some suspense there. There really is. Yeah. Yeah. We, uh, we rolled up and we're like, are we going to a, get a physical or something? Dan didn't have rubber gloves on. Yeah. Right, yeah.

And so you walk in and it's a cabinet shop and then back there is like a layer, a taxidermy layer,
