Welcome back everybody. It's Friday time for some Q&A. Let's get into it. Full auto Friday number. Who knows what? Here we go

0:06.9

Oh hey everybody welcome back. Before we get into the questions today I realized the

0:32.8

Dan here every Friday like these questions are super heavy and oftentimes people are not

0:39.9

asking about the best experiences of their life. So it weighs on me a little bit like I feel

0:49.8

bad for people in the situation that they're in and then I'm stuck. I'm not stuck. I'm willingly

0:54.4

answering their questions. It's like god damn little bit heavy. So maybe we should do an

1:00.5

episode that at least is not as heavy. That's what I was thinking for today. So getting a bunch

them. I would say bow hunting is my absolute favorite. What I don't, I was going to say I don't

2:02.2

like what's tough for me about bow hunting is time allocation. I love shooting my bow. It is

2:09.4

certainly therapeutic in many different ways. It's just something really cool to focus on.

2:14.0

You can see your improvements. You can see when you make mistakes. I like messing around with

2:18.5

the gear, which I guess overlays to rifles as well, too, because you can always tinker with your

2:23.0

stuff and find better things. But if I had unlimited time, that would only bow hunt because it is
