My name is Tyler Webster, and this is the Western Wing Shooter podcast, presented by

Onex Hunt, Boss Shot Shells, Final Rise vests, Lucky Duck Kennels, gun dog grind coffee, and fervor pet supplements. Thanks. All right, guys. So we're going to try this again with Jordan from Maven Optics. He was on the podcast yesterday. I didn't want to just delete that episode just because there was a lot of, we covered a lot of ground in there and there's some really good piece of advice. I hope that people can actually hear it.

When we were recording, I could catch little glimpses of something going on with Jordan's audio.

When I actually went to edit the thing together and put it out, it was quite a bit worse than what it sounded like through my headphones.

So we apologize about that, but we got Jordan back on,

and we're going to take another swing at her here. We're not going to really rehash a ton of the same stuff that we went over yesterday, but we're just going to kind of continue the conversation.

So thanks again for giving this second shot there, Jordan. Yeah, I appreciate it. it's rare that you get a second chance on

on things like like this it's the way everyone's schedules are everyone's so busy yeah

hopefully people can at least hear me and then maybe we can if if we touch on some different stuff

today and it's a little bit more easy for folks to listen to they They'll want to go back and kind of grit through the other one.

Right, right, for sure. So, you know, when we ended the podcast yesterday, the last thing that we talked about, we actually, we kind of wrapped up with you talking about your, the hunting that you do and your bird dogs.

What was kind of when you moved, did you bird hunt before you

moved to Wyoming or was that was something that you got into over there after, you know, a while?

No, you know, the way that I grew up, I grew up outside of Jacksonville, Florida, kind of in that

swampy stuff if anyone's ever been out there. It's also developed now. It's not recognizable to what it

looked like in my childhood. But I always figured if it was good enough whether to go hunting,

it was good enough whether to fish. Sure. That's typically what I would do. But I had buddies that

liked to hunt. So we would do some hog hunting and some turkey hunting, but I would always have a

fishing pole in the back of the truck.

And so like I kind of flirt that line with adult onset hunter, but I did it growing up.

I just I didn't like to do it as much.

So I didn't pick it up until, yeah, I got that dog we were talking about yesterday, Ranger, seven years ago.
