Welcome to the Exodus podcast.

This is Jake Hofer.

This week, we have a great episode with John Iberhard. We're talking about his past season, postseason scouting, and how to make the most of it to prepare for the following year. I found it really interesting that John typically has 40 locations that are prepared or at least scouted out, and he may only hunt 12 of them. That just goes to show the importance of having multiple options so you can make the most of your season. I hope you guys certainly enjoy this.

I want to say thank you to everyone for the support with the launch of the rival. All of the rival codes have been completely claimed. You can still pre-order the camera on our website at exodus outdoor gear.com. It is a great cell camera at an affordable price. That's something we've been working on here for a long time.

And I hope you guys really take advantage of that.

You can learn all about the camera in case you missed last week's episode or you can go to our YouTube channel.

John, how's it going?

It's going great. How about you? It's going well here. We recorded, I think we were recorded maybe midsummer last year. I'm trying to recall. Maybe it was closer to August. Oh my God. I don't remember. I honestly don't. Yeah. So I'm excited to hear about your season and everything else. But it's always a pleasure to talk with you. I appreciate you taking the time to record. And before then, you were getting ready to retire and now you are in the sunset phase. You are in your retirement. How's that going?

I'm officially retired from my main job, which was a sales rep in the hunting and fishing category for the last 30-some years and

I've repped for some of the biggest manufacturers of hunting and fishing equipment in the world

and I absolutely loved my job because I've repped so many different categories of product lines
