Are you an adventurer looking to take your hunt to the next level, and you're in the right place.

Welcome to East Meets West Hunt with your host, Beaumartonic.

Hey, everyone.

I'm really excited to release this podcast today with my guest, Dan, the fitness man Staten, of Elkshape.

Dan owns a CrossFit gym and is also the owner of Elkshape and the host of the Elkshape podcast,

which I believe will be extremely valuable

to anyone that listens to my podcast.

I think Dan has a wealth of knowledge there.

And we talk about a lot of things he talks about on his podcast, but geared towards, you

know, the Eastern Adventure Hunter looking to head out west and also dive into a lot more

than that. It's from a physical fitness standpoint and why Dan uses CrossFit and why he believes

for him, CrossFit is the best way to be in shape to tackle on whatever the mountains are going to throw at you

as well as get into a lot about elk cunning elk cunning early season uh specifically and just

adventure style hunts with from alaska through the lower 48 and everything in between.

So Dan, the thing I really liked about talking to him and why I wanted to have him on there is

he talks about hunting a lot on his own podcast, but also is big on goal planning,

discipline, family, work, work life balance, and just really setting goals

and crushing them. So this podcast has a little bit for everybody down to hunting tactics

and then also overall life discussions. So I'm excited to have this one come out and you guys listen to it.

But first, I want to kind of give everyone an update here on what it's looking like coming

into, you know, we're coming into the end of August here.

And it's August 20th.
