0:00.0	What is going on? Welcome to the Exodus podcast. It's Jake Hofer. And this week, we have Damian Riffel here on the podcast. This is going back to the Great American Outdoors show. We ran into him at the booth and said, hey, do you want to record here later today? He said, yeah. And Damien has been a previous podcast guest and also a white tail crib's guest. So if you haven't checked out his white tail crib, definitely encourage you to go do so. It's an awesome place and a lot of
0:23.5	great stories, big deer. And I think that'll set you up for this conversation for
0:28.3	why he's got some things to say and why you should probably listen. So also we're
0:33.0	talking about the moon and how it impacts deer in his opinion. That's something Damien believes greatly in.
0:39.3	We ask them holding deer for an early moon.
0:42.3	Would you try to design a farm around a new moon?
0:45.3	And just a lot of really interesting things.
0:47.3	And also talking about checking cameras in October.
0:49.3	I understand it's August right now.
0:51.3	But keep this in mind so you have a game plan going into this fall and just
0:55.3	a great amount of conversation here for anyone that wants to get a little bit more fired up for
1:00.4	this upcoming season. Before we get into this episode though, I want to tell you this. Velafest is up
1:05.7	and rocking. We're closing out that Velbo Fest code where you can save 20% off any multi-render order.
1:12.0	So it could be any render bundle, the Quick Start bundle, or just the render itself.
1:16.9	Save 20% use the code Velvifest.

1:46.5	Also, the Exodus MMT is up on our website. We're selling them. I want to say thank you to everybody for the support. Be sure to go check those out. If you are in the market for Aeros this upcoming season, you're definitely gonna wanna check them out. And man, they've been great. The feedback has been awesome. And they're to kill a lot of big bucks this year. That would be my guess. And now we are going to announce one of the lucky winners
1:51.4	of the MMT arrows. So we've been giving away five of these. This is the first winner here on
1:56.0	this podcast and we'll be giving away some of those on the Land Podcasts and Deer Gear Podcasts as well.
