All right, welcome back to another 10 Minute Tuesday. This 10 minute Tuesday is brought to you by Weatherby.

0:05.2

If you have not checked out the new Sorx, please go check it out. It's an incredible gun made in Italy, campaign in the USA. You're going to love them. They have a ton of cool features. One of the things that like best about the gun is when you're loading shells, they've got kind of this, I don't even know what you would call that, Carter, like an anti-finger catching. Yeah, something like that.

0:23.5

Yeah, it's like a, the way that the,

0:25.2

the way that it accepts your shells makes it so that you can never get your fingers stuck,

0:31.1

which is really, really shitty when you're in the middle of like a negative 10 blind and your

0:36.8

fingers caught in your gun. So check out the new Sorrix. Go to weatherby.com. Before you continue, you know what else I should check out? What's that? New Midwest Flyways merch just dropped. Oh, nice job, Carter. Slash shop. Slash shop. Midwestflyways.com slash shop. We're bringing back Carter's or Conner's very famous uh thing so go go slash shop go check

0:57.5

out our new merch thanks carter good plug um all right so no joey tonight guys i just want to do a

1:02.0

little quick a quick 10 minute tuesday kind of thoughts about preparing going into waterfall

1:06.7

season how you can make your waterfall season as good as it can possibly be um one of the things I hear a lot from guys at the end of the year is just kind of them, I think looking

1:16.3

back on their duck season and wishing maybe they would have done things a little bit differently.

1:20.0

And I think the reality of this is just you're not going to be able to get the birds to do

1:24.6

what you want all the time.

1:25.6

And one of the most common misconceptions too that we get Carter all the time is people being like, how is it possible

1:32.0

that every time you guys go out, it's a banger? Well, it's not. It's not. A lot of the time when we go

1:38.8

out, it's the opposite of a banger. We push and grind hard to try to find birds, and sometimes you just can't. And it's hard

1:48.3

because especially if you're traveling, it's hard to get your dates right all the time,

1:52.9

you know? And one of the best things you can do is pick a date window and find a couple of places

1:58.7

you can get to for that date window and then kind of just

2:02.3

decide as you're going which place you think you'd rather go. And so instead of just trying to

2:07.4

pick a spot, end up going there, you can do that. And if there's a place that you're trying to go

2:12.3

that's historically good for waterfall that time of year, that's something that you can bank on,

2:16.9

then do it. But don't show up and have the expectation that you're going to shoot a limit. Because the reality is, just like when we go out all the time, you're going to just have hunts that aren't going to go well. And sometimes you're going to think you're going to have a banger, and then you're going to go in and find out that day that you're not, you're not going to have a
