It was so nice to have you at the show and sit in on all the podcasts for EBJ, the podcast that we do together, and then also Eastman's Elevated.

So, yeah, thanks so much.

Yeah, it was a lot of fun.

We have our Life of the Bowhunter podcast, but it's always good to get back on to Eastman's Elevated and have slightly different conversations sometimes, but it seems like they always kind of end up

right on down to what we like to talk about. Yeah, yeah, that's it. Yeah, some really good

conversation. So on today's podcast, we had on Noah Jones, first time meeting him. So they've been

teasing him at the office that he looks like my son in there, so he's a lookalike. So you'll have to check out the YouTube video. Yeah, I had to definitely jab you guys because the resemblance is uncanny. Yep. Well, and he's killing big critters, so he might beat my offspring. I asked him, I was like, did you grow up in Olympia by any chance? He said no, so I don't know. Yeah, I don't know. Well, we're definitely related one way or another. I'm not sure how. But a great podcast, really fun to meet him. So he's part of the Eberley Stock team. And so he brought in the new pack that Eberle Stock came out with. Man, what a pack. What a frame. What a bag. Man, that thing is so cool.

The first time I saw it, it was on the bench here. And I was like, that's not an Airbley stock.

Like, you know, from a distance and seeing the load lifters and just the different straps. And, yeah,

it's definitely a backpack revolution, I feel like.

It's going to compete with the highest-end backpacks out there, but a really good price point.

But I just couldn't believe how comfortable it is.

They've redone the hip belt, the padding on it.

Everything's been thought out on this pack from the straps to the chest harness to the load lifters. It just seems like the

ultimate pack and I can't wait to get this thing in my hands. Yeah, yeah. I can't wait to put weight on it

and be miserable. Let's load this thing up and just yeah, crush us. I love that's how you test a pack

just put some heavy weight on it and go for a hike. That's exactly right. we talk about the pack we talk about Noah's season so he gets in harvested a great

antelope had a rough go at elk season we talk about that a bit and then killed a bomber mule deer and

they actually tripled up on mule deer him his dad and his buddy which is crazy yeah and it's cool to see his progression and

and how sharp of a learner he is yep so that's yeah really cool to have the conversations and he's a

young kid i mean seems like he's like 18 or something he's in his 20s but still a young kid and

just gets after it yep i like seeing this young generation you know the truth is, is they're going to be better than we can be just because they're learning from guys like us and they're learning the new age and they pick up this stuff so quick being the information day and age. So, yeah, it'll be exciting to see what he produces the next handful of seasons. Absolutely. Absolutely.
