>> Jonathan: You guys that just hit play.

Thanks for giving us support on this beautiful

Thursday here, wherever you are, you're listening

to chase and birdies pep.

I'm running out of things to say to you, bud. This is three weeks in a

row.

>> RB: Three weeks in a row. But it feels good. Back to back

weeks.

>> Jonathan: Yeah.

>> RB: just giving the people what they want, you know?

>> Jonathan: And it's like you just. You laugh at my

intro, what I say, what I don't say. So I switched it up a little

bit for you, threw you with a little curve ball.

Sounded good, and, ah, I love it. My

son, again. Yeah, thanks.

>> RB: I love it.

And as always, today's episode is

brought to you by. Red Vanley. Bud, you got

some new swag, huh? Jim came through.

Let's go.

>> Speaker C: Good.

>> RB: Look good. so go over to redvanley.com,

check them out. I had a little golf

trip this weekend, bud.

>> Jonathan: you know, I've heard you mention this a couple of times,

and, you know, it's

when you have a best friend like this, naturally, we

have two of us, including BK. We all get to go

on different golf trips, but, you know, there's always that feeling

of, well, hey, my buddy's getting to do this, and I'm not on this

one. And there is absolutely

zero jealousy from any angle. Dude,

I am stoked for you. I heard you talking about this little trip you got going

on, and it sounds like it's shaping up to

be a pretty damn good one for you.

>> RB: Yeah, it's going to be fun. got a little sage valley on

Monday and Tuesday. We were

supposed to do Peachtree on Sunday when we landed, but

club championship at Peachtree got in the way.

Final round. I asked him if I could play in the final round. My score doesn't

have to count. I said, They

declined.

>> Jonathan: Like, a member role of someone out of town or someone

that never shows up or maybe for them

show up dress. Yeah.

>> RB: I'm Harry Smith, and then I win the club championship,

and my name's on the board at Peachtree. I'm not a member.

Yeah, that'd be fun.

So, very nice.

So, yeah, that.

>> Jonathan: I'm.

>> RB: I'm excited for that one. Sage Valley, which you've turned down, funny

enough. so I'll fill you in.

Thanks on that. What? What?

>> Jonathan: No. I mean, I did. I did turn down. Not this trip.

>> RB: Specific trip.

>> Jonathan: Well, because I couldn't make it work. So sometimes I got to say

no, but who? So it's you and walks and who's.

>> RB: All going Ray Fulcher, Tyler reeve,

Cole, Taylor, and Jim Fury's gonna be

there with.

>> Jonathan: So, maybe fluff will be floating.

>> RB: Around, too, but can you imagine fluff on my bag?

He'd be so lost. He would just

like. Like, what are you. What?

>> Jonathan: Yeah.

>> RB: But, I'm excited they have that lit up

par three course. Got some great cigars for us to

smoke down there, so I'm really excited to see the boys

and get to see Sage Valley for the first time. And Athens country

club with Schaefer, which I'm excited for. Everybody

talks about that little donald Ross gem. So

excited for that.

>> Jonathan: How was just talking about. I'll bookmark

that. I was just talking about shaver today. you know, I golfed

with, Buzzo, Randy Buzz, who owns

Pete die, and the question was asked, has anyone ever

asked who designed a course? Pete die golf club. Who's designed Pete

die golf club? Naturally, it's Pete dye. Right? But me

being. I don't want to say gullible, but sometimes

I just give people the benefit of the doubt for just

stupid. On number ten, shaver,

the guy you're playing Athens country club with, said, who

designed this place? Again? And I looked at him and I

said, p ty. And he's like.

I'm like, man, I thought. I thought you were serious. Like, I was helping you

out.

>> RB: There you go with it again. There you go with it. Hey,

Saturday. This past Saturday, pretty good

gambling day for the boys. We had a pretty strong

day. Wasn't great, wasn't bad.

Was good.

>> Jonathan: Yeah.

>> RB: it was fun to watch.

>> Jonathan: Fun to watch somebody's game, not fun to watch the Mountaineers. That

was absolutely awful.

>> RB: the Georgia Bulldogs came through, which was a little bit of a risky move

with the way Texas has been playing. So glad we were

on the, on the, right side of that one.

>> Jonathan: Hey, bud. You know, sorry to interrupt you. I just thought of something.

You're talking about your golf trip. You know who just, played

Pine Valley this week? Jr.

Has junior made it out east?

>> RB: Well, yeah, he's got a nice one lined up.

Yeah, I'm happy for him.

He's going to have all kinds of pine Valley swag. I'm sure.

>> Jonathan: I might. Yeah.

>> RB: I mean, so, you know, good for him, though. I'm glad he

got. That's a hard get to

get. So good for junior. I guess it's

about time, but,

>> Jonathan: Yeah, football was. It was good.

>> RB: Sunday was a little bit of a disappointment for me

personally. Took the parlay, lost that, and

then I took the jets at minus two and a half. Got

smoked on that, which you haven't been talking

too much, which leads me to believe you took the

Steelers.

>> Jonathan: I did.

>> RB: Yeah. There you go.

>> Jonathan: I did.

>> RB: I knew it. You are such a little rat. Well, you

are a rat. You put your bed in

at 6630. Dude, I

know.

>> Jonathan: He puts his bed at 630. The game kicks off at

830, and I'm, like, undecided. I

asked him if he put his bed in for next weekend already, too. I

mean, but at least, like ten minutes before the game's good. But

I did a little research. That line moved back up two and a half,

and I just felt like. Like, you know what? Tomlin doesn't lose.

>> RB: You're such.

>> Jonathan: Too often. Well, so.

>> RB: You're so sneaky.

>> Jonathan: Yeah, but what about all the times I helped you?

>> Speaker C: Yeah, yeah.

>> RB: I mean, but what about the Tennessee one? I

said Tennessee. I picked the Georgia one. Yeah,

let's.

>> Jonathan: You had some dubs.

>> RB: And then hockey this week was a great one for me. not

for you. The one night that you take, of course, but hockey

was great for me. but, yeah, it's exciting, dude.

It's, Everything is firing on all cylinders, and, including

today's episode.

>> Jonathan: I love it, man.

Greg camp joins us here on Jason birdies. We met him down in

Nashville at old Hickory country club. just

a cool guy, man. An avid outdoorsman, has

done a lot of hunts. You can call him a professional hunter,

frankly, and outdoor, apparel. So we

thought, what the hell? You know what, Greg? Let's get you on the podcast

and hear about you chasing birdies in life. And naturally, he

does somewhat like golf, so it worked out

great.

>> RB: Yeah. So, I'm really looking forward to our first duck

hunt with him. it's gonna be exciting and, you

know, we'll dress appropriately for this and,

yeah, we will do that.

So, without further ado, let's

roll it on over to Greg camp. Listen, he has to say, let's

go.

>> Jonathan: You know, as we mentioned on the last episode here on

Chase and birdies, we are inching closer

to winter. But

before winter, we obviously have a great season in fall.

You and I pep love fall golf, but there are

outdoor enthusiasts stationed all over the world

that this is their season. Now. It's hunting

time now, whether or not it's all year or just

in this specific timeframe, within the year,

that's what people do. They chase bucks, chase tail,

chase ducks, whatever. And we got Greg

camp joining us. Today on Jason

birdies, founder of Halo waterfowl and other

things we'll get into. My man, Greg. We've never had a real hunter

on the show, man, so I'm stoked to have you,

man.

>> Speaker C: I'm your first redneck ever, huh? Real

redneck?

>> Jonathan: Well, I wouldn't say that, but, well, maybe.

>> RB: No, we had, Willie Robertson on.

>> Jonathan: Oh, yeah, we had Willie Robertson on from Duck Dynasty.

>> RB: I mean, that's. He's an outdoor.

>> Speaker C: He's a legit hunter. He's the real

deal.

>> RB: So you're second.

>> Speaker C: Yeah, I'm so. Okay.

>> Jonathan: But that was many moons ago. I actually forgot about that pep. How could

I forget that?

>> Speaker C: That's a pretty big one.

>> Jonathan: But anyways, man, it's good to have you on, man. I don't

know. I know you're kind of new to us, and we're kind of new to you,

but, in the last episode of the podcast, I was talking about the

long drive contest down there at, old hickory,

and pep rolled up and saw you, and he legitimately thought this

guy was what you look. You're built. So it makes sense to

his defense.

>> RB: Based off his looks. He looks like he's a long

draft champion, so he looks

deceiving.

>> Jonathan: He starts asking you if you know these guys that are actual

long drivers, and you're like. You're looking at this kid like, what in the

hell are you talking about?

>> Speaker C: But, like, yeah,

that was one thing that I don't know. I think that was part of the

trick. Everybody just thought I could really crush the ball, you know?

I did some push ups before everybody got there, but, I

don't know. I love golf, but, you know, I don't know that I'm as

good as that, that flyer made me out to be.

Especially be wearing those jorts and that cartoon, hey, come

beat Greg camp from Halo waterfowl, the long drive competition.

People thought I was the man they got here. This guy's a

joke.

>> Jonathan: Wow. You know what?

>> Speaker C: I didn't get better as y'all left. I know

everybody says that, but I think y'all were, like, the fifth

group after that. I really found my niche. But

that's easy for me to say now.

>> Jonathan: Yeah. And, you know, when we get into

the golf talk, we'll talk a little bit about that. But certainly once you

get a little bit of repetition going, just like anything,

then you'll start connecting, you know? So, I mean, that makes

sense, but, you know. You in

Georgia now, or are you from Arkansas originally? Where are you right

now?

>> Speaker C: I'm a Georgia boy. Georgia native. born and

raised here. Still live here today. So I'm

a. I'm a. I'm a Georgia peach. Old

redneck.

>> Jonathan: Well, you got some nice racks hanging around that room right

behind you there.

>> Speaker C: Well, thank you, man. I appreciate that. It's, a lot of

years of sitting, in the deer stand. I

promise you that.

>> Jonathan: So talk a little bit about the halo

waterfall, because I know you tossed us a couple polos,

which we're very appreciative of and whatnot. And,

so just want to kind of hear a little bit about that background with

that story.

>> Speaker C: Absolutely. So, you know, I'll give you the,

short version. you know, halo Waterfowl

was founded in 2013. My

brother and I wanted to build, a lifestyle

company that, we could be proud of. And that did something a little

different than, most companies that we, are

familiar with. You know, our goal was not to be an apparel

company or, necessarily a,

company that made something. It was more

of a lifestyle company, something that a lot of

people could just relate to. And, I felt

like, and he and my brother chase felt like to

doing something american made out of the gate would sort

of signify that or

make that relevant and real. And the way we

did that is through making an american made hunting

jacket. Every piece of it was sourced in

America and built in Georgia. An old school

waterfowl hunting jacket, old school

wax canvas. So we sourced all the pieces of part

all over the country and built the jacket

in, Bremen, Georgia, at, a factory called

sewell manufacturing. It's been around for about 80 years,

and that's sort of where we got our start, making an old school

jacket that a bunch of, grandmas

and grandpas sit around and theyre still

cutting and sewing. I mean, each one of these jackets are handmade.

We make a couple hundred a year. And, Man,

its just tried and true

american made materials, products, down to

the zipper and the buttons and the snaps.

And, you know, it has been really cool. And

we got a lot of recognition for doing something that was

different. And, that's kind of where we got our

start.

>> RB: So is that jacket that you manufacture, is

it waterproof?

>> Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, it's made out of the same thing as our us

military's tents. Old school wax canvas.

Like if you went to the Colorado Rockies

and you bought the best tent out there,

in years past, it's wax canvas. or if they went when they

went desert storm. Wax can, whatever that is.

And it cuts the wind, it cuts the rain. It's non

insulated, but it will, it will

shield you from the elements.

>> Jonathan: Now, with your love for outdoors,

and I know hunting kind of takes precedence,

but are you in the same

realm, like, with fishing

or.

>> Speaker C: I mean, I love fishing, especially freshwater

fishing. You, know, we grew up catching bass and

brim and crappie and all that stuff.

Catfish trooping,

on. I love salt water, but I'm a little bit of a

sissy because I get sick a little bit if I'm getting

on real rocky water. And, you know, it's one of those deals where

you got to take dramatic or just start drinking cold beer early in

the morning, one or the other. So, you know,

just either one. I do love, like, I love

cobia fishing, you know, in the spring,

you know, I like to, you know, I'm sort of a

fair weather fisherman running up and down the coast, catching

those covia. You can jump in the water and swim

to. Swim to the sand if you want to, but,

no, I do love it. I'm not as mad at

the fish as I am, the big bucks

and ducks and turkey, though.

>> Jonathan: Yeah. And coming from where we are,

we're not too far from you, but I'm in West Virginia, peps,

up around the Pittsburgh area. You know, we

take. School gets canceled on Monday, first day of rifle season

in November. After Thanksgiving, they don't. They

can't go on Mondays for hunting.

>> Speaker C: Yeah, I love that. I'm thinking about moving

there over that.

>> RB: I mean, it's like a big deal. It's a huge deal.

I mean, I love you.

>> Jonathan: So me personally, and I, I don't

know about pep, if he's had ever had any experience, but obviously,

we're. We're not the avid hunters, but I

really do enjoy the outdoors. I mean, and

so, you know, I find myself for, for

example, last year, I set up some trail cams. I got a

feeder auto feeder. Twice a day goes off because

we have so many deer around here. I like watching them, you know.

but I've only shot one deer in my life, man. A couple years ago, I

went archery hunting and, and got me a nice little

buck. And, and that was it. So

I'm one and done. But I definitely want to get it back out there.

I mean, hunting is very therapeutic,

not just to me, but I'm saying to probably you guys, there's

a adrenaline aspect to it. So

I kind of imagine, you know, if pep and I go on a hunt with

y'all, whether it's for ducks or turkeys or hogs or

whatever it is, it'll feel like some guys coming on golf

trips with us where they're like, just, we're looking for someone

to lead us.

>> Speaker C: Absolutely. There's nothing more

exhilarating, that pumps me up, or whatever you want to call it,

when folks who don't do it that much

get out there and, like, the ducks break down

through the timber, and they're just like, on top of you, or

a big buck walks in, or you got a turkey goblin at 20

yards. When those guys see that for

the first time, or even if they've seen it

but in a different capacity, maybe it's not as intense

as what we can get them in. Man, it blows my

mind to see people just light up, because when you do it

once and you really get the full experience,

you're hooked. You're hooked, man. I love it. I

love seeing people, and the older I get, I remember

growing up and hearing older dudes blowing, hey, man, I just want to

see kids, you know, a youngster get out there and do

it. I don't care if I even shoot them anymore. And I could never

relate to that. And I was like, what are they talking about? Like, I always want to

shoot, but the older I get, I get what they're

saying because they just want to get new folks in the

door, get them doing it. So it gets. That

actually sends, gives me a little chill right now thinking about it. I can't

wait for y'all to get out there and see some of that.

>> RB: Well, I mean, I have ADHD

severely, so you guys might lose me about ten minutes into either

the hunt or the, duck hunt, the deer hunt,

whatever. But I'll light a cigar. I'll probably scare everybody

away.

>> Speaker C: that happens a lot, actually.

>> RB: I'm not your ideal hunter because I smoke cigars left and

right, so I'm like, yeah.

the only outdoor stuff I do and enjoy is

fishing. I love the fish, and I don't do it enough,

and I wish I did. My son actually

loves to fish, and, that's what I

had to go to Cabela's last week. That was an experience

in itself. And wheeling, West Virginia, I

mean, like, it would have been like that guy

asking me for golf balls type thing I'm looking like.

But, it's. It's awesome. I have a lot of friends that do it. And

did your dad, your grandfather, are

they the ones that got you into it, or did you kind of start

yourself?

>> Speaker C: Yeah. Well, before I answer that, you're a perfect candidate

for a turkey hunter, a duck hunter, because they can't

smell, so you can smoke all the

stones you got, baby, light up. We're light them up.

You know, if you got them. But, Yeah, but, that's a great

question. You know, my dad got me into deer hunting.

My brother and I both. I mean, he was, that's one thing. Like, you know, we

didn't come from a bunch of money. One thing he. We did come

from a house of love. And, my dad, one of the

things, he was very adamant about it, and he's always a good

athlete, but he was a better

outdoorsman. He was really good at introducing us

to, deer hunting at an early age, and

turkey hunting and, of course, squirrel hunting. I

mean, you can't pass that up. And an occasional

dove hunt. We never had dove fields that were like,

you could imagine now, but we'd go out and try to find some

doves. But deer hunting and turkey hunting was, you

know, something that we looked, looked forward

to every year. I mean, it was the old school days

where you're deer hunting and you, like, you're

hunting on a piece of property. There's. We're in some kind of

deer lease back in the eighties

or nineties, and you're sitting there, and the guy

pulls up into orange, and his camo looks

horrible, and he's like a cigarette and got these big glasses

and Elmer Fudd hat. He's like, yeah, I

got a big doe and a three pointer, a spike and a

five pointer. you know, he's got, like, five deer. And that

was before deer management was cool. Like, just whatever you could

pile on your four wheeler. That's how I remember growing

up. And my, dad always told us, hey, son,

we're not out here to do that. We're out here to enjoy

God's creation and get some

meat. Bring home the family, man. That's how we

got into.

And I think that's where my passion for it really resonates,

from.

>> Jonathan: That's awesome. I mean, you can tell you have the

passion, and you're like the prototype

hunter, outdoorsman, man. Looking at you, it's like,

yeah, if I want to go hunting, I want to go with this

guy.

>> Speaker C: Well, thanks, man. Shook.

>> Jonathan: Did you ever, have you guys seen that video that

went viral, like, a year or two ago of that clown in

Bass pro shop where he jumps into

the water feature.

And he goes.

>> Speaker C: Yes, it's a great video. Like, I don't, I don't

know why I thought that was so funny,

but one of my buddies, josh, sent me that. And I

was like, he's like, no, no, I'm, I'm here. I

was like, I'm here. I just saw it. I said, what are you doing to bass pro

shot? He said, don't worry about it. I just sent you the video. I was like,

that guy has lost his mind, but it's

unbelievable.

>> Jonathan: Lost his mind? Yeah. I mean, he was like, naked.

>> RB: Jumped out, didn't he?

>> Jonathan: Yeah, he jumped out. He pulled him out, or he jumped out, fell out on the

floor, and then they cuffed him up. But he was like, nude.

It was.

>> Speaker C: Brings drinking to a new level.

Like, I mean, he. When he. If you think about it,

that piece of glass is like this

thick at a, bass pro shop. It's a

hundred percent, at least 10ft

tall. And that climbed

over it and face planted on that

concrete like, that had to hurt. That left a

mark in the words.

>> RB: That was enough punishment.

>> Jonathan: Yeah.

>> Speaker C: Joker still has a concussion.

>> Jonathan: Oh, he's still. Yeah, no doubt. He's still banged up. He's probably still

locked up, too. Maybe. but have you ever gone out

west and hunted?

>> Speaker C: I have. I have, like,

old school out. Ah, west. I've done it. Ah,

I've done it. My, again. my

dad took us to, we would always fly into

Denver and drive up to, Glenwood

Springs, Colorado. And then from

there we would drive another two and a half hours

up into, like the Kincaid mountain range or

something, like out past Craig, Colorado.

And we'd go up in the northwest corner of Colorado and

we'd go hunt mule deer and elk.

like three or four times. I never, I

never killed, anything. My uncle killed some,

my dad killed some. But, you know, growing up, it was

neat to be a part of that because those are the things

I remember my whole life. And it was more

than killing, it was about the experience

of being out in the middle of nowhere. And, I mean, I remember

us being in one of these old school wax canvas

tents with like, like this heater

in the middle of it. They turned it off and you, like, you're. It was

warm and you fall asleep and then you're

like, I'll never hear. The first time I ever went out

there, I woke up in the middle of night and I had to pee. And I

was like, oh, my God, I'm gonna get out and pee. And, when

you pull that blanket off, I mean, it was, like,

18 degrees. And he, like, you go outside the pee

in the tent where there's bears and

mountain lions, and they're like, hey, don't get eaten by a bear. Like,

it. You get out there and you're like, you don't want to go to the bathroom

that bad. Like, I'll just hold it till daylight. You know,

some of that stuff. And it was really cold. But, man, we grew

up roughing it out west and trying to

brush your teeth with, like, water and,

like, just no running water. And we were out there for,

like, seven days in the middle of nowhere.

>> RB: And I was.

>> Speaker C: That's crazy. The older I get, again, I want to

go somewhere not quite that extreme. But we did that

for, like, ten years, like, every other

year.

>> Jonathan: Damn it. Yeah, you need some posh, posh

amenities now at your stage.

>> Speaker C: I ain't gonna lie, man. I take it a little easier these days. I

go to places we got a little bit of running water and

electricity.

>> Jonathan: so you had mentioned back in Nashville, when

we met, that Riley green

is a partner of yours in this company as well, or

something to do with you.

>> Speaker C: He is. Riley's a good friend and, obviously a

heck of a country music artist. And

I, will say this about my buddy Riley. He is the real

deal. And, what you see is what you get.

He is, just as good a hunter as he is

a songwriter, and

artist. just a hell of a guy.

we were introduced from a buddy of mine, Tyler Crewett,

back in

2015,

introduced us, and, we went duck hunting together.

And, been, friends ever since. It was

kind of before Halo was really halo and

before Riley was really Riley. And, you

know, he just hung out, man. And he's, since, become

a partner in halo and just a heck of a. And has always

been heck of a good friend.

>> RB: I see that he likes cigars, from time to time,

too.

>> Speaker C: So, yeah, he ain't scared of a cigar. I mean,

he won't crush them, daily, but, he'll

partake time, to time.

>> Jonathan: Well, I gotta say. Cause you said, you know,

he's the real deal, whatever you mentioned earlier. But,

you know, we're playing in this golf tournament, and pep

and I knew a lot of the guys there, you know, just from doing this for a while and

being buddies with some of those boys down there, but

I never had any encounter with Riley green

before. And, you know,

I see him kind of walking around and I go to pep. I'm like,

dude, that is one good looking

dude, man.

>> Speaker C: Golly, I think he gets that a lot.

>> RB: yeah, I think he's doing all right with the

ladies.

>> Speaker C: Yeah, that's one thing. He, he, may

have a few issues. Women ain't one of them.

>> Jonathan: No, I can guarantee that. But.

But that's awesome, man. You know, you kind of get. I think that's

what's cool about, like, for example, Jonathan, he's got

relationships with guys that, like, you go,

how in the hell are you friends with these people? But it's

like, ah, ah. At an organic state,

you just kind of, kind of,

just mesh well with someone. And

regardless of what they're doing in life, it doesn't matter. It's

like this person and I mesh on this level. I don't give a

crap what he's doing or if he's famous. Not famous,

athlete, whatever. It's just about that

connection, you know? And, for guys, that's important because at the end of the

day, you know, outside of your family and

close friends that you have, when you start making

new friends or whatnot, you really

don't want to surround yourself with a bunch of assholes.

I mean, just amen.

>> Speaker C: Amen to that. There's no doubt, man.

I've been very blessed with a wonderful, beautiful

wife and three beautiful kids and two puppy

dogs, one of which I showed you a few minutes ago. But,

you know, it's funny how, you know, one of my buddies told me

a long time ago, in high school, you're giving

your friends in college, you get to

pick them, right? And that's sort of how the rest of

your life goes. After college, you want to be

around the people that you like and that are

equally yoked and sort of,

you know, you got those friends you like. You look at your buddies like, hey, I'm

going to introduce you to this guy. He's one of us. That you want to

be the guy that they're like, he's one of us. When you get brought

into a new group, so life's too short to surround

yourself with people that aren't one of us, so to

speak, right?

>> Jonathan: Yeah.

>> RB: Now you're for sure. I mean, that's why, like, when you

plan golf trips, and I'm sure with you, with hunting trips,

like, you got to think out who's going on a trip, because

I'm going to be away for two to three days with these people. I want to

have fun, and I don't want to have to deal with bullshit or anything like

that. I want to smoke cigars, drink some

tequila, hit some. Okay. Golf shots

here and there and have fun.

>> Speaker C: Yes, absolutely. 100%.

I have, the older I get back to what

you said a minute ago, you're very.

We're all very fortunate to have a lot of acquaintances

and a lot of friends, but there is a

select group that you want to spend hunting camp

with, you know, guys who. I

don't want to get into the details of

what it takes to be that, but at the end of the day,

it's real short and simple. Guys

who are equally yoked and just want

to have fun and not stingy, don't care who

kills. They're just happy for whoever does,

and to your point, wants to smoke a cigar or have a

cocktail or have a beer or drink a

coke, whatever. Just chill and relaxed,

you know, that's just somebody who just may, you gotta have,

you gotta have a few people just to, create

that right ebb and flow. And, man, it's fun when

you get three or four or five buddies in camp that are like

that.

>> RB: So you talk about camp. So Ryan and I, we

go on a fair number of golf trips with some of our buddies every year.

And, you know, we're so amped up, we're gonna stay up till

03 00:27:01

00 a.m. the next day, drinking all night, and we're gonna

03 00:27:04

party, right? Well,

03 00:27:07

99% of the time, we're in bed by

03 00:27:09

930. So,

03 00:27:12

like, we've golfed

03 00:27:15

all day and, smoked, drank.

03 00:27:18

But come 930, I'm like, all right, boys, I'm gonna hit it. I'll see you in the

03 00:27:20

morning. Is that what it's like for you boys out there when

03 00:27:23

you're camping or what? Are you guys staying up a little later?

03 00:27:26

>> Speaker C: No. yeah, for sure, man. Like, so,

03 00:27:30

And I think a lot of hunters will relate to this.

03 00:27:33

when I was duck hunting, and I was so mad at the

03 00:27:36

ducks, and that's all we were doing back in the day, like,

03 00:27:39

when, and it's sort of an evolution of what that

03 00:27:42

looks like. The younger guys, the duck hunters, like,

03 00:27:45

when you're just, you're mad about the ducks. Like,

03 00:27:48

you're hunting mornings in

03 00:27:50

Arkansas, and they're like, there's nothing to

03 00:27:53

do all day. And the guys like, hey, it's time to drink beer.

03 00:27:56

Like, you get to a point in your life where that's

03 00:27:59

just not like you're like, I'm not going to drink beer all day, we got to

03 00:28:02

do something. And then you're like, oh, okay, we can

03 00:28:05

hunt. We can hit speckle bellies and snow geese in the

03 00:28:08

afternoon. So now you got ducks in the morning,

03 00:28:11

you forget the beer drinking, and you go

03 00:28:13

straight to the next hunt, which is the

03 00:28:16

specs or the snows. And then

03 00:28:19

the evening, you have two or three beers or whatever,

03 00:28:21

and you get tired, and you go to sleep.

03 00:28:24

Well, now, in deer hunting, when you go to deer camp, it's

03 00:28:27

like you get up so early, and you work so

03 00:28:30

hard, and you hunt, and then you try to

03 00:28:33

come back and take a nap. That's if you don't go

03 00:28:36

hang another set somewhere else or move because the deer

03 00:28:39

aren't moving where you want them to. And then. And then

03 00:28:42

you go to hunt that evening, you get back, and you're

03 00:28:45

like, man, I'll have a beer, and I'm going to bed. But, like, the

03 00:28:48

older you get, it's funny because you're like, you start thinking like, hey, did I bring my

03 00:28:51

CPAp machine? That's a funny thing,

03 00:28:53

man. Like, when I first got.

03 00:28:56

I got a CPAP machine. I'm just gonna say it, dude. Listen.

03 00:29:00

It is what it is. I'm 46 years old. I got

03 00:29:03

a CPAP machine. It is what? Like, my buddies were busting my

03 00:29:06

balls. You got a cPap machine, man? It's freaking

03 00:29:09

old now. My dude's like, hey, man, let's talk to him about the

03 00:29:12

CPAp machine. What's going on? Like,

03 00:29:15

so, like, three or four of my buddies now. I see. Because,

03 00:29:18

like, man, that's the real deal. We'll talk about that

03 00:29:20

later, man. That's some good rest right there.

03 00:29:24

But, yeah, things change. That's the long answer,

03 00:29:26

that as you get older, things change.

03 00:29:29

Deer camp, duck camp, turkey camp. It

03 00:29:32

evolves. You're not as, you're not as young

03 00:29:35

as you once were, and I'm.

03 00:29:37

>> RB: Completely fine with that. I'm happy to go to bed. 930,

maybe 10 00:29:40

00 watch 10:00 news, get up

at 06 00:29:42

00 a.m. have a cup of coffee, and then maybe a morning

at 06 00:29:45

cigar. I'm good with that. But there

at 06 00:29:48

are always those people that are out drinking till 02:00 a.m.

at 06 00:29:51

and they're, oh, you can't hang, dude. It's not that I can't hang.

at 06 00:29:54

I don't want to hang. I want to feel normal tomorrow.

at 06 00:29:57

>> Speaker C: Yeah, that's right.

at 06 00:29:58

>> Jonathan: That's.

at 06 00:29:58

>> Speaker C: That's right. Now, I'll say this, too.

at 06 00:30:01

y'all know halo waterfowl you know, duck

at 06 00:30:04

hunting. Like, that's, that's been my gig

at 06 00:30:07

for forever. that is a young man

at 06 00:30:09

sport. I mean, that's, that's intense. I mean, those

at 06 00:30:12

boys, those boys are, you know, your grand, you

at 06 00:30:15

know, your grandpa always said, I mean, you know, if you can be stupid,

at 06 00:30:18

you got to be tough. And, Doug hunt's one of those sports.

at 06 00:30:21

You're going to be stupid, you're going to be tough. Those boys will get out and carry

at 06 00:30:24

on and, you know, two or 03:00 in the morning and

at 06 00:30:27

go hang out and, you know, a dive bar and get

at 06 00:30:30

up in 04:00 and go walk into a duck

at 06 00:30:33

hole. You know, that's, that's, that's,

at 06 00:30:35

that's got to be tough to do that.

at 06 00:30:39

You know, I don't want no part of that.

at 06 00:30:42

I'm with you. I want the rest.

at 06 00:30:44

>> Jonathan: So, yeah, and I'm

at 06 00:30:47

on a different level than even pep. Like, I'm good to go to bed before

09 00:30:50

00. but, like, duck hunting, you got,

09 00:30:53

see, I've not really been one to eat, like, duck breast

09 00:30:56

as dinner. Like, I see it on menus sometimes, which, I know

09 00:30:59

it's a little, I think it's a little fattier or

09 00:31:02

maybe greasier. I don't know if that's right way to describe it,

09 00:31:05

but I mean, you're obviously eating the

09 00:31:08

kills, right?

09 00:31:09

>> Speaker C: Oh, yeah. We really, we don't ever shoot

09 00:31:12

anything. We don't either. Either we

09 00:31:15

eat or we give it to somebody or we

09 00:31:18

give it to the homeless 100%.

09 00:31:20

>> Jonathan: So what's your favorite, what

09 00:31:23

is your favorite meat of your kill? Is it, is it venison or do you like

09 00:31:26

duck or.

09 00:31:28

>> Speaker C: Man, this is a toss up between duck and

09 00:31:31

elk. duck. Duck is

09 00:31:34

amazing. You know, where I screwed up as a young man, I

09 00:31:37

would try to cook it like I was

09 00:31:39

cooking chicken, and then I realized you're

09 00:31:42

supposed to cook duck like you're cooking steak.

09 00:31:45

And, man, I was so far

09 00:31:48

wrong, man. I mean, like, literally, it's

09 00:31:51

amazing. You cook that stuff like steak. Duck is the

09 00:31:54

real deal. I mean, I'm telling you, you know, it's good.

09 00:31:57

I mean, I love that. And then elkhorndeh

09 00:32:00

elk is in the cow family. It's not in the venison

09 00:32:03

family. It's not deer. And, you know, elk is

09 00:32:06

one of the most, sought after meats. Like, all the

09 00:32:09

help, you know, whether it's mountain ops or first form.

09 00:32:12

Yeah, I'm using some

09 00:32:14

groups that are very high in

09 00:32:17

fitness, good companies, good quality folks,

09 00:32:20

those guys love elk meat, and there's a reason it's the most

09 00:32:23

lean, good meat on the planet, in my

09 00:32:26

opinion. And I think there's a lot of health

09 00:32:28

nuts or health consciences, people or

09 00:32:31

folks that are worried about taking care of themselves, which we all

09 00:32:34

should be. At least I should be more, That's a

09 00:32:37

good meat, man. Elk is a real deal.

09 00:32:40

>> RB: So, I

09 00:32:43

love bison and elk.

09 00:32:46

just ground bison. Ground elk

09 00:32:49

instead of your normal cow meat. but,

09 00:32:52

dude, I'll just. I had it the other night. I had

09 00:32:54

elk with mushrooms,

09 00:32:57

onions, and then I just sprinkled a little bit of cheese on

09 00:33:00

there. And I just eat that.

09 00:33:02

it is so lean elk,

09 00:33:06

the latest red meat you can eat.

09 00:33:10

>> Speaker C: You're spot on, man. I mean, if people are going nuts

09 00:33:13

over it.

09 00:33:15

>> RB: An elk strip steak. Oh.

09 00:33:18

>> Speaker C: Oh, man. Tenderloin, back strap, man,

09 00:33:21

listen, you. If you could sell that. I mean,

09 00:33:24

that people lined up here to Chicago.

09 00:33:29

>> Jonathan: I had my first elk. I don't know what it was.

09 00:33:32

If it was elk, what cut it was.

09 00:33:35

>> RB: You had a strip sake?

09 00:33:37

>> Jonathan: No, no. This. The first time I had elk was in Jackson,

09 00:33:39

Wyoming, at a little restaurant. And it was.

09 00:33:43

I forget the type of what it was. It was a

09 00:33:45

nice freaking chuck of

09 00:33:48

elk. It was on the bone. It was bone in something. Not bone in, but

09 00:33:51

bone in. it was dynamite. So, yeah,

09 00:33:54

it's, it's good stuff. And trying that stuff,

09 00:33:56

you know, at the end of the day, if you cook it up good, you don't

09 00:33:59

really. It doesn't taste gamey, I guess, is what I'm

09 00:34:02

trying to say.

09 00:34:03

>> Speaker C: No, no. Those guys know how to cook

09 00:34:05

it. There's secrets, to

09 00:34:08

everything. You just soak a lot of that stuff in,

09 00:34:11

cold water with some salt in it overnight in the refrigerator.

09 00:34:14

Draws that blood out. It takes that gamey taste

09 00:34:16

out. I mean, man, it doesn't take

09 00:34:19

much for elk to taste really good. It really

09 00:34:22

doesn't. I love it, man.

09 00:34:24

>> Jonathan: You look like a guy that knows his way around a kitchen and a

09 00:34:26

smoker.

09 00:34:29

>> Speaker C: It's a nice way to call me fat.

09 00:34:31

>> Jonathan: No, no. Lean. Lean, Greg.

09 00:34:34

>> Speaker C: Lean. No, I know. I know. I'm kidding. No, thanks,

09 00:34:37

man. I'll tell you, I will say this. I

09 00:34:40

decided, you know, I think my wife

09 00:34:42

wishes I was a little better

09 00:34:46

in the kitchen, but

09 00:34:48

she's giving me the accolades and props I

09 00:34:51

need on the grill, but. The grill. But

09 00:34:54

I gotta get better at the smoking, man. I hadn't done the.

09 00:34:57

I haven't done as much with the pellets and the

09 00:34:59

smokers, as you would think. Like, I'm

09 00:35:02

just like, I've been old school, like, for so long. I would

09 00:35:05

get my, like, weber grill and go out there

09 00:35:08

and get charcoal and, like, put it out there because I'm like a. Like

09 00:35:11

a freak for, like, just a good charcoal

09 00:35:13

hamburger steak. And, you know, I've got

09 00:35:16

this. My kids and my wife bought me this

09 00:35:19

beautiful lever gas

09 00:35:22

grill. And listen, for

09 00:35:24

speed. you can't beat it. But, man, I'm still,

09 00:35:27

like a. I still love charcoal, man. I'm old

09 00:35:30

school, man. I guess that's just growing up poor. I don't

09 00:35:33

know. We didn't ever admit, but I do love it. It's good.

09 00:35:36

>> Jonathan: Well, I like smoking. I have a smoker. I like grilling.

09 00:35:39

I grill a lot. And I, had a guy over the house a couple weeks ago

09 00:35:41

fixing a fireplace, and we started

09 00:35:44

talking about grills. And I didn't know he was a grill guru.

09 00:35:47

And now this cat was standing in my living

09 00:35:50

room talking to me now about grills because I mentioned

09 00:35:53

to him that I was trying to get a new grill. I've been researching

09 00:35:56

grills, and he starts going

09 00:35:59

through every brand, you name it, whether it's

09 00:36:01

Weber or Napoleon or

09 00:36:04

coyote or jumping over

09 00:36:07

to the green egg versus the primo

09 00:36:09

and this and that, and I'm like, but

09 00:36:12

just get my fireplace working, all right? Because that's really.

09 00:36:16

But it's interesting, I think that especially

09 00:36:19

in this season, we're coming into, man, nothing beats the smell of a

09 00:36:22

smoker going. But I need to hurt

09 00:36:25

my skills a little bit.

09 00:36:26

>> Speaker C: Yeah, me and you both. Me and you both.

09 00:36:28

I got. I got a couple buddies who, like, I told him, I was like, y'all,

09 00:36:31

y'all gotta hook your boy up and look, you know, come on over.

09 00:36:34

Let me show you. I just gotta make m time to do it, you know? I'm bad

09 00:36:37

about, my family make fun of me because I'm bad

09 00:36:40

about burning a fire, you know?

09 00:36:43

You know, three quarters of the year, like, it could be

09 00:36:46

90 degrees outside the summer. I got a fire. Go. I turned the

09 00:36:49

air down. We're freezing in the house. I love burning a fire in the

09 00:36:52

house, dude.

09 00:36:53

>> Jonathan: Yeah, my wife's awesome.

09 00:36:55

>> RB: My wife yells at me all the time. Tells me I'm wasting the wood outside

09 00:36:58

because I'll throw a few logs on a fire

09 00:37:00

outside, and I'll walk away and I'll sit on the back patio and smoke a cigar.

09 00:37:03

And she's like, what was the point of that over there. And I said,

09 00:37:06

I just. I just like the smell.

09 00:37:09

>> Speaker C: I, like to know it's burning.

09 00:37:11

>> RB: I just like the smell. I don't care. Like, I know it's a hundred

09 00:37:14

degrees outside. What is it? That's why I'm sitting over here.

09 00:37:17

But I like the smoke coming to me and smelling that. It's

09 00:37:20

just. It's incredible.

09 00:37:22

>> Speaker C: It is just that, hey, I've had the same

09 00:37:25

thing. Hey, man, that's that woods growing while we sleep. We

09 00:37:28

cut it all down, burn it tomorrow to grow back next week. I

09 00:37:31

love it. I'm with you, man. I'll burn something. I have,

09 00:37:34

ah, I have been said that I was a

09 00:37:36

pyromaniac, which I don't get that. I do like fire and

09 00:37:39

I do like burning stuff. But I love a fire,

09 00:37:42

man. I will burn it every day if I'm home.

09 00:37:45

>> RB: I'm with you, man. I am with you.

09 00:37:47

>> Jonathan: Cozy.

09 00:37:48

>> RB: And again, it's still like there's a good fire.

09 00:37:51

Roll in it and I'll throw another log on. For what reason? I don't

09 00:37:53

know. Because I want the flames higher. I don't know.

09 00:37:56

>> Speaker C: No, I'm the same way. I just want to see a

09 00:37:59

fire. I mean, it's like a good Saturday

09 00:38:03

college, football or Sunday NFL Sunday.

09 00:38:06

I may be working around the house, but if the game's on,

09 00:38:08

mentally, I'm good. Same with the fire. Just have

09 00:38:11

the fire rolling. I could be working, but I want to walk by and

09 00:38:14

I want to smell it. I get it. I love you.

09 00:38:17

>> RB: So you talk about Saturdays and maybe

09 00:38:20

I'm, assuming because of all our other

09 00:38:23

buddies are from Georgia. They're Georgia Bulldog fans.

09 00:38:25

Is that.

09 00:38:26

>> Speaker C: Oh, yeah.

09 00:38:29

>> Speaker C: Made y'all throw up a little bit.

09 00:38:30

>> Jonathan: No, it's a dog. That's a good team to be your

09 00:38:33

team. I mean, no complaints there.

09 00:38:36

>> RB: I like the Marshall thundering herd, so there you go.

09 00:38:39

>> Jonathan: Yeah, they're actually.

09 00:38:42

Well, we won't get into that, but.

09 00:38:44

>> Speaker C: Oh, we just to butt in there, we

09 00:38:47

did just do and received them in the mail

09 00:38:50

today. We got an Auburn halo hat, Alabama

09 00:38:53

halo hat, and the Georgia. And those are our three best

09 00:38:56

sellers. So, we're launching those this week

09 00:38:59

on the sort of sec thing.

09 00:39:01

So we sell a ton of those hats. So, yeah, for

09 00:39:04

whatever reason, those are the three best sellers. So,

09 00:39:09

people like. Yeah, I like your hat, man.

09 00:39:11

No, my boys at 24/7 hunt, those are

09 00:39:14

good friends of ours. Good folks.

09 00:39:16

>> RB: Well, so as I mentioned,

09 00:39:19

before, not a hunter. I just like the duck.

09 00:39:23

>> Speaker C: Yeah.

09 00:39:24

>> RB: it's a good looking duck, and an orange is my favorite color. And here

09 00:39:27

we are.

09 00:39:30

>> Speaker C: Looks good on you.

09 00:39:31

>> Jonathan: So, Greg, you played a little bit of golf today,

09 00:39:35

or potentially today. So,

09 00:39:38

you know, we got to talk a little bit about golf because

09 00:39:40

obviously you do golf, but maybe

09 00:39:43

you don't want to golf like you hunt. I don't know. So,

09 00:39:46

you know, what's it like chasing birdies with you?

09 00:39:50

>> Speaker C: I will. I'm not going to make the senior tour.

09 00:39:53

I'll start by saying that, hey, neither.

09 00:39:55

>> Jonathan: Us, neither are we.

09 00:39:58

>> Speaker C: I will say I am. You know,

09 00:40:01

I really, you know, what do they say? Drive. Ah.

09 00:40:04

For show, putt for doe.

09 00:40:07

It's crazy how that changes for me. Like, one day

09 00:40:10

I could just be lights out, and the

09 00:40:12

next day I'm terrible on the drive.

09 00:40:16

The day that you saw me, terrible on the

09 00:40:18

drive was decent at, the putting

09 00:40:21

before, believe it or not, as weird as that sounds.

09 00:40:24

And then today I was, not that good

09 00:40:27

on the drive or the putt, but I was working my

09 00:40:30

irons. Like, it was about, like, I hit my five

09 00:40:32

iron. Like, I was hitting my driver. Like, I've never

09 00:40:35

hit a five iron good in my life. And I hit

09 00:40:38

like ten shots a day. That

09 00:40:41

blew my mind. But now I couldn't, do

09 00:40:44

anything on my 60 degree or my 56 degree. Like,

09 00:40:47

it was horrible. My buddy was like, are you okay? I was like,

09 00:40:50

I think so.

09 00:40:52

>> RB: It was just, I mean, it just

09 00:40:54

sucks.

09 00:40:55

>> Speaker C: I was just, hey, I want to be consistent. That's, you know, that's

09 00:40:58

the one thing in life that I would like to say about. Put, on my

09 00:41:01

grace on. He was

09 00:41:03

consistent.

09 00:41:04

>> RB: Yeah.

09 00:41:05

>> Speaker C: Consistently crazy, stupid, wild, funny,

09 00:41:08

whatever in a passionate. But

09 00:41:10

golf. Mmm m it's not gonna be on there.

09 00:41:14

It's not gonna be on there.

09 00:41:15

>> RB: Well, you're probably consistent with duck

09 00:41:18

hunting or whatever, so, I mean, you give

09 00:41:21

some give and take, right?

09 00:41:22

>> Speaker C: That's right. That's right.

09 00:41:24

>> Jonathan: But you hit those five irons like that, probably one. You probably want to play

09 00:41:27

golf tomorrow now.

09 00:41:28

>> Speaker C: I kind of do. I'm not gonna lie, you're right. I mean, that is

09 00:41:31

the one thing. You just nailed it right

09 00:41:34

there. With golf, like, you can play

09 00:41:37

ten days back. You have one and you want to play for

09 00:41:39

ten more days.

09 00:41:40

>> Speaker C: You just like, just do it. Golf is so

09 00:41:43

addictive when you have a good stroke.

09 00:41:46

Like today, me and my buddy, you know, we had a

09 00:41:49

mulligan or whatever, a piece. For whatever reason. It was

09 00:41:52

a weird tournament. You had mulligans so, like, like, you

09 00:41:54

hit a good shot, and, you know, he was like, okay,

09 00:41:58

you want it? We, you know, whatever. you know, and we had a

09 00:42:00

guy short, so we got to hit his other shot. And

09 00:42:03

I was like, well, I hit his other shot. I just hit a good one. And he was like,

09 00:42:06

yeah, you should hit it. You hit a good one and then you shank it, and you're like, oh,

09 00:42:09

my God, I should have let him hit it because it's so

09 00:42:12

mental. I mean, golf is so mental. Like, I'm,

09 00:42:15

not telling you. I'm preaching the choir, but you get up to that ball,

09 00:42:18

you know, if I can figure out a way for nothing to

09 00:42:21

go through my mind, I'm going to crush it. As soon

09 00:42:24

as I start thinking I'm going to do it like this,

09 00:42:27

I'm going, it's over.

09 00:42:29

>> Jonathan: Yeah, no, it's, it's.

09 00:42:32

And, you know, part of the reason why we wanted to have you on

09 00:42:35

here, honestly, we know you love golf, play

09 00:42:38

golf and whatnot, and. But most of our guests,

09 00:42:40

they're doing something else in life. They just all have

09 00:42:43

the passion for golf, just like you kind of do.

09 00:42:46

But at the end of the day, there is some

09 00:42:48

crossover with respect to your

09 00:42:51

passion with hunting and our passion, which is golf,

09 00:42:54

because at the end of the day, as we mentioned earlier, it's about who you

09 00:42:57

surround yourself with for that day, for that trip, whatever it

09 00:43:00

is, you know, having the adrenaline

09 00:43:03

rush that you have. Believe me, I can understand

09 00:43:06

being in the stand and seeing a nice twelve point walk by, and you're

09 00:43:09

going like, But it's the same feeling over a six footer that you're like,

09 00:43:12

I gotta fucking make this putt. I gotta make it. I gotta make it. You know what I mean?

09 00:43:15

So, like, yeah, absolutely. And the beauty aspect

09 00:43:17

of it, hear me out on that. You know, you go to these different

09 00:43:20

places and hunt, you know, and you, whether

09 00:43:23

they're new places or places you're fond of, you like to go back. Same thing

09 00:43:26

with golf, right? Like, you get outside, you're in nature, which

09 00:43:29

is incredible. And you get to see different places,

09 00:43:32

different tracks. And at the end of the day, you're doing

09 00:43:35

the same thing whether you're at Pinehurst or you're playing

09 00:43:38

at Oakmont. But it's just different settings. And that's

09 00:43:41

kind of synonymous with hunting in that regard, too. So

09 00:43:43

there's a lot of crossovers there. I think that kind of, there really

09 00:43:46

is.

09 00:43:47

>> Speaker C: That's a good point. I didn't really? Until you said

09 00:43:50

that, did I really, relate the two? But, man,

09 00:43:53

there are quite a few places that I still want

09 00:43:56

to hunt. You know, people ask me all the time, are you going to go on

09 00:43:59

a. Do you want to go to Argentina and going to,

09 00:44:02

you know, Guelph as a whatever, or do you want to

09 00:44:05

go to Africa? And I'm like, man, there's so many places

09 00:44:07

in, you know, North America that I still want to go that I

09 00:44:10

haven't seen. I want to do that. And I've never been to

09 00:44:12

Sawgrass. You know, I've been to Augusta

09 00:44:15

nationals.

09 00:44:16

I've been to East Lake. But there's so many other

09 00:44:19

places, in the. Just, you know,

09 00:44:21

northern part, of the country, or

09 00:44:24

just out west. I've never been to some of these great golf

09 00:44:27

courses. I just want to go check them out. So. Yeah, I'm with you,

09 00:44:30

man. There. There is some real crossover. You're right.

09 00:44:33

>> RB: I'm heading down your way here in about a week and a half,

09 00:44:36

with, Tyler reeve and Cole taylor going down

09 00:44:39

to play Sage valley for two days, so.

09 00:44:41

>> Speaker C: Oh, no kidding. Those are good dudes right there, and that's

09 00:44:44

going to be a heck of a play.

09 00:44:45

>> RB: Yeah, we're going to. We're going to have a high old time.

09 00:44:48

and I'm really excited for that one. But that's the thing, like, we're talking about

09 00:44:51

right now is, like, you're excited for the next golf course

09 00:44:54

or we are. I should say you're excited for the next hunt and

09 00:44:57

location and all that, or your next big

09 00:45:00

kill. so there is, like he said, a lot of crossover,

09 00:45:03

and it's cool.

09 00:45:04

>> Speaker C: Yeah, it really is. I mean, there's a lot of

09 00:45:06

connectivity in this. I mean, when you sit here

09 00:45:09

and think about it, when you just said that, I just said, wow,

09 00:45:12

man, I want to do this, this, this and this, because, I mean,

09 00:45:15

like, everybody wants to go, you know, abroad to

09 00:45:18

go check out some golf courses, but, man, there's so

09 00:45:21

many here that I want to check out before I even get to

09 00:45:24

that phase, if I live long enough, you know? But there's. There's that

09 00:45:27

many that I want to go play, or even if I don't play,

09 00:45:30

I want to go see, watch the tour, do it, you

09 00:45:33

know? M so I'm with you. Tell Tyler, man,

09 00:45:36

watch out. That joker may pack a fishing

09 00:45:38

pole on you and go catch some fish while y'all over there hitting the

09 00:45:41

golf ball. He's. He's good at both.

09 00:45:44

>> RB: He's good he's hilarious.

09 00:45:45

>> Jonathan: He is a good dude.

09 00:45:46

>> RB: He's got a. He's got a decent voice on him, so I'll give him

09 00:45:49

that.

09 00:45:50

>> Speaker C: Yeah, he does, man. He's. He's a real deal.

09 00:45:54

>> Jonathan: Yeah. No, he is. All those boys, everyone

09 00:45:57

we met, you know. Yeah. Just good. Good

09 00:45:59

people, man. Good people. And that's what. That's what we need more of

09 00:46:02

in the world, bottom line.

09 00:46:04

>> Speaker C: Yeah, no doubt. And I'll tell you, I was a blue otter. Blue

09 00:46:07

otter is a good. A good group of folks

09 00:46:10

who bring a bunch of good people together. That blue

09 00:46:13

otter golf tournament, you know, it's an honor to be there every

09 00:46:16

year. And, you know, I wouldn't have met you guys if I wouldn't have been

09 00:46:18

there.

09 00:46:19

>> RB: Exactly.

09 00:46:19

>> Speaker C: I thank the lord every day for good relationships like

09 00:46:22

this. And blue otter, man, Bradley

09 00:46:25

and all the boys over there. Just good,

09 00:46:27

Megan. All those folks are awesome.

09 00:46:30

>> RB: Well, we'll have to. We'll have to keep an eye on the

09 00:46:32

schedule. Next, time Riley's in Pittsburgh, you

09 00:46:35

mosey on up this way. we'll take you.

09 00:46:38

We'll do a little fishing, and then we'll take you to some

09 00:46:41

good golf courses. We got a. We got a bunch here in the backyard,

09 00:46:44

and we'll go smoke a cigar.

09 00:46:48

>> Speaker C: Baby. I'll be there.

09 00:46:49

>> Jonathan: Yeah.

09 00:46:50

>> Speaker C: I'll call you bluff.

09 00:46:51

>> Jonathan: Yeah.

09 00:46:53

>> RB: We'll get it taken care of.

09 00:46:54

>> Jonathan: Yeah. Bring your wife up. Our resort that we're, associated

09 00:46:57

with. She would. Absolutely. Your wife would. Well,

09 00:47:00

your whole family would go goo. Goo gaga

09 00:47:03

over it. It's incredible. So, man, I'd love to

09 00:47:06

do.

09 00:47:06

>> Speaker C: I've got. That's one thing that my kids and my family

09 00:47:09

do. They love all traveling together.

09 00:47:12

And I. One day, we're gonna find an

09 00:47:15

amazing place to hunt and an amazing place

09 00:47:18

to golf. Place where you bring your wife,

09 00:47:21

kids, and everybody be. That's a real deal.

09 00:47:24

That's like a. It's like a epic goal.

09 00:47:27

>> Jonathan: That would be. That'd be a great. Yeah.

09 00:47:30

Well, Greg, man, it was awesome having you on here.

>> RB: Jesus. I wasn't expecting that one.

09 00:48:00

>> Speaker C: I wasn't either.

09 00:48:02

>> RB: Dream hunt.

09 00:48:14

>> Jonathan: But he doesn't.

09 00:48:15

Wow. I would say I'm definitely. I mean, you gotta bring

09 00:48:37

Jesus to the party. I mean, that's my dude. you know, I would

09 00:48:40

say, Chris Farley. and then

09 00:48:43

I would say will Ferrell. Like, the four of

09 00:48:46

us would be ridiculous. I'm going to count myself as that

09 00:48:48

foursome.

09 00:48:49

>> RB: That would be a, pretty epic.

09 00:48:50

>> Speaker C: Foursome if you can't

09 00:48:53

tell my personality. I love laughing, having

09 00:48:56

a good time. I'm

09 00:48:59

happy just to wake up every day.

09 00:49:01

09 00:49:02

>> RB: And the last question, Greg, what are you chasing?

09 00:49:06

>> Speaker C: I'm chasing birds. Birdies.

09 00:49:09

Ducks, deer, turkeys. Hell,

09 00:49:12

I may, I may go rope a donkey.

09 00:49:17

>> RB: That's a good one right there. That's the first time anybody sitting

09 00:49:20

there.

09 00:49:22

>> Jonathan: That's awesome, man.

09 00:49:25

>> Speaker C: Thank you all for having me on, man. Y'all are a trip.

09 00:49:28

This is always fun. And just hanging out with you guys

09 00:49:31

of the day was awesome. And, I've been on a few

09 00:49:34

podcasts, but, in my day, of course, but,

09 00:49:37

y'all are just, cream of the crop good dudes, down to

09 00:49:40

earth and salt of the earth. And I appreciate your time

09 00:49:42

and appreciate your friendship.

09 00:49:44

>> Jonathan: Well, likewise, man. We really appreciate you coming on here. This

09 00:49:47

was. This was a great time, man. So,

09 00:49:50

appreciate it.

09 00:49:56

>> RB: Enjoyable.

09 00:49:58

Different episode with our

09 00:50:01

dude Greg camp, which, funny enough, he's not a long drive

09 00:50:03

hitter. I found that out the

09 00:50:06

hard way at old Hickory. but it was a blast talking to him and

09 00:50:09

seeing, you know, his passion for. For hunting

09 00:50:12

and see his relationship with Riley

09 00:50:15

Green. That's all. That's awesome.

09 00:50:18

>> Jonathan: Yeah, just a good, good dude, man. You could just tell family

09 00:50:21

oriented, loves the outdoor loves life.

09 00:50:23

And that's what we're all about here on chase and birdie's real

09 00:50:26

talk. So, Greg, thanks for coming on. It was awesome.

09 00:50:29

And I stand corrected, because I said, you

09 00:50:32

know, this was our first time having a hunter or something like that, to the effect

09 00:50:35

of that. But I was wrong. I forgot about

09 00:50:37

Willie Robertson early on. So listeners out

09 00:50:40

there who may have just started listening to Jason,

09 00:50:43

birdies or maybe.

09 00:50:46

Yeah. You go back into the archives. You will see it

09 00:50:49

episode back in the day of me and Pep

09 00:50:52

with Willie Robertson. And so Greg makes

09 00:50:55

two. But this was good. This was good.

09 00:50:58

>> RB: The pooch is cute, huh? Huh?

09 00:51:00

>> Jonathan: Adorable.

09 00:51:00

>> RB: Birdie, I like.

09 00:51:02

>> Jonathan: Yeah, I do, too.

09 00:51:04

>> RB: but with that, you know, us going on the duck hunt and everything, I

09 00:51:07

need to fine tune my shooting. I'm gonna take

09 00:51:10

my butt up to Nemicolon,

09 00:51:13

practice some, I guess, shooting

09 00:51:15

there, and, try to make it

09 00:51:18

as real as it gets with the ducks. So

09 00:51:21

make sure you go on over to nemicolon.com,

09 00:51:25

09 00:51:28

Go by yourself, whatever you want to do. There's something

09 00:51:30

for you to do there. The golf courses are.

09 00:51:34

It's amazing right now. The trees are as good as it

09 00:51:37

gets. Right now up there. Mystic M Rock is ripping

09 00:51:40

on all cylinders, shepherd's rocks bouncing back

09 00:51:43

after the aeration. So it's

09 00:51:46

exciting. At Nema Colon. Go to

09 00:51:48

nemecolan.com. you will not be

09 00:51:50

disappointed.

09 00:51:51

>> Jonathan: You will not be disappointed. Because you know what?

09 00:51:54

Last weekend, pep, I had a little celebration on

09 00:51:57

Saturday. Yeah. Which I don't like telling people it was my

09 00:51:59

birthday, but it was. It was my birthday. So I'm another year

09 00:52:02

older, but I'm like, what am I gonna do today?

09 00:52:05

You know? What can we do? So I told ash, I said, you know what?

09 00:52:08

Let's roll up there, grab a little lunch. And by

09 00:52:11

accident, I put my clubs in the car, by

09 00:52:14

accident. And actually, I put my shoes in the car, too, by

09 00:52:17

accident, in case I got out. And, we went

09 00:52:20

out at 03:00 not a soul out

09 00:52:22

there. The weather was great. Played 18

09 00:52:25

holes. She watched around. She played

09 00:52:28

videographer. We listened to music. And I

09 00:52:30

realized at that moment in time, I was like, man,

09 00:52:33

this place is extremely

09 00:52:36

special, and it's right here for us. But

09 00:52:39

for people listening across the country. Dude, you guys are

09 00:52:42

missing out.

09 00:52:42

>> RB: Well, we're happy to have you there.

09 00:52:44

>> Jonathan: It's beautiful. So happy to be there.

09 00:52:46

>> Jonathan: yeah, always. So, look for actually get to play

09 00:52:49

with you potentially tomorrow.

09 00:52:51

>> RB: Yeah, tomorrow. If you, don't cancel, like, the last one.

09 00:52:54

But that's all good.

09 00:52:55

>> Jonathan: The frost delay got me, bud. We'll blame it on that.

09 00:52:57

>> RB: The frost delay got a lot of people. So, make sure you go over

09 00:53:00

to chasing birdies on instagram.

09 00:53:03

Chasing birdies. Any old episodes?

09 00:53:06

Chasing birdies.com has everyone we've

09 00:53:09

interviewed, including the Willie Robertson, which

09 00:53:13

we will say it was early on. Don't know

09 00:53:15

how good. We were, with that interview, so maybe we

09 00:53:18

gotta get him back on and chat a little bit after our duck

09 00:53:21

hunt.

09 00:53:22

>> Jonathan: Let's do it, man. And, you guys out there tuning in

09 00:53:24

09 00:53:27

support. We hope you enjoyed the episode. And

09 00:53:30

it's hard to believe that the month of October is zipping on

09 00:53:33

through. But you enjoy your,

09 00:53:36

I guess, second to last weekend of, clown. Yeah, I guess it is

09 00:53:39
