Pheasant Hunting with a Trad Bow

host of the Bear Hunting Magazine podcast. I'll also be your host into the world of hunting the icon of the North American wilderness Prepare. We'll talk about tactics, gear, conservation, but will also bring you into some of the wildest country on the planet chasing bears. Last week, Brent Reeves and I went to Greensburg, Kansas to hunt pheasants. We didn't take shotguns, but we took the traditional bow and a camera. This podcast is about what we learned while

traditional bow hunting pheasants over German short hair pointers. We talk about the gear, the gear failure. We talked about the difficulty, we talked about the fun, We talked about pointing dogs and so this is kind of a off topic podcast, but it's a lot of fun and you can check out our video on the Bear Hunting Magazine YouTube channel. We just released a three minute video that I am quite certain it's gonna burn up the internet and you'll get to watch me miss a lot and

I will not tell you if I hit one. The whole point of all this is, uh yeah, we were just looking to have some fun over some good pointing dogs and do some non traditional wingshooting, so check that out. Also, we're continuing this week on our giveaway and the way to be qualified for the giveaway, and this week it's for north Woods Bear Products. Will send you some variety some type of north Woods Bear products, just one person

per week. If you leave a comment on iTunes, take a screenshot of the comment and communicate that back to us through Instagram, private message, Facebook private message, or email at info at bear hyphen Hunting dot com. So leave a leave a review and the comment of the podcast, and all of a sudden you'll be in the running for this week that's gonna be getting some Northwoods Bear products. As we gear up and start thinking about spring, Bear hunting.

We're gonna enjoy this podcast with Meat and my buddy Brent Reeves. We are in in Wichita, Kansas, and I'm with my buddy Brent Reeves, and we're doing something that we typically find ourselves doing this time of year, which is looking for something to hunt that is different, that is maybe not different. But you know, we've we've come through the fall hunting seasons and it's still deer season in Arkansas. It's duck season in Arkansas, but there's no ducks in Arkansas and uh, and we can still do

a little bit of deer hunting and probably will. Our deer season lasts through this This is a leap year, so lasts through February twenty nine. But but this is the time when we're doing some really turning our attention to small game in a lot of ways. Yeah, I've got some squirrel hunting plans in the near future. Um, well, this is the time last year when we uh squirrel

hunting on mules with a tray. Yeah. So what we did though this year is, uh, we came to Kansas for one day to hunt pheasants and not not just pheasant hunting, but we were hunting with a traditional boat. Yeah, and Brent was Brent was here with me. Brent was filming, and uh, I had seen in different places where guys were we're hunting pheasants with tread bows, and I had no idea Brent, if I could hit one or not.

I remember a month ago, three weeks ago, whatever was when you called me and he said, hey, man, you think you'd be up for a trip to Kansas shoot some pheasants. And I'm like, yeah, I'm in. And you said, well, I'm gonna do it with my boat. And I said, what has possessed you? Did? I want to do that? Because when immediately when you said go to Kansas and pheasant hunt, I thought, well, we're gonna do some We're gonna shoot some birds. We shotguns, That's what I mean.

Who wouldn't think that? So I was taking them back. But I did it. Man. I understand well that the genesis of it was that I saw a guy on social media for a guy that I know that had I had just a a bunch of quail. They went on a quail hunt in Missouri and they were that he he'd quail hunted. And man, it's been so long

since i've been on a good quail hunt. I asked him where he went, and uh, and he and he went to some place up the Missouri and they were they were pen raised birds that they put out for him. And nothing in any way against that. I've been on those kind of hunts, but I was I really wanted a wild bird hunt. That's what was in my mind. And then I started. Uh. I saw something on YouTube where a guy shot a pheasant with a traditional bowl, and I just thought, well, man, what if we pheasant

hunted and up the game. We're gonna We're gonna we're gonna use the trad bow. And um, I had no idea if I can hit if I could hit one, But now I do because we went over here for a day and um we were here for a day. And what I said was, I believe if I have twenty shot at pheasants, I believe I could hit one. That is what I said. I had no basis for that other than that. UM, you know, I'm I'm just

a decent traditional archer. But I feel like I had a I've shot enough that I that I and they've shot at some moving targets and stuff that I just I just felt like I could hit them. And uh, well you even you even talked to the outfitter and said, you know what when you were setting it up, you know, what's the what's the chances of getting you know, how many shots do you think I could get during the day?

And you came up with the number. You know, you know, if I could get twenty shots, I think I can do this, you know, And it seemed like a legit number to me as well. Yeah, and here's the here's the truth about it too. I've not been shooting my traditional bow. I mean I haven't shot it much in the last two months. You know, some guys are shooting their bows all the time, and and I just don't do that at the you know, I pick up my

bow for portions of the year. And there's some guys that that shoot their trad bows all throughout the year, you know, not going more than a couple of days without shooting it. And uh and I've just I've just never done that. Usually, I'm I'm picking the bow up, you know, sixty days before a hunt, and and and

and and shooting a lot. And I found that I can be pretty accurate for big game out to fifteen eighteen yards by doing that and doing it right and and haven't had any trouble killing game that way, but this one kind of snuck up on me and uh, gonna go shoot pheasants. So I don't know how to break this to everybody, but today this originally started out as a two day trip as well, this is gonna be a two day hunt. Well we trimmed her down

to where it was just a one day hunt. So we drove six hours, got here late last night, hunted all day, and we're back on the road tonight. Well ask you, there's forecasting for some pretty rough weather coming in and didn't really Yeah, rain and snow, which really inconducive to you know, a good film and the weather. So we thought, well we can if we can get on the birds, you know, and one day we'll we'll

knock it out. Today. Let me uh, let me first start by talking about the gear that I was using. I was using a timber Ghost traditional boat G three S S, which is the superstatic. The S S stands for superstatic, the G three stands for Generation three, So it's Kent Roberts third generation of this style of three piece takedown bows. The superstatic Brent means that those radical, super radical limb tips which give it extreme performance. Like that bow is one of the fastest bows on the

on the market, on the traditional market. So I was shooting a timber ghost G three SS at fifty two pounds at inches and I probably draw it twenty seven and shooting snapshooting pheasant, I was probably drawing at twenty twenty six inches. And we I had a dozen flu flu arrows built with five inch fletchings helical four fletched flu flues. I had a dozen made because I figured

that I was gonna lose some arrows. Well, I remember us talking about it too, you know, And in one of the conversations after we decided, you know, we're going, that was my question. I'm like, arrows. I mean, I'm an archer, but I'm not a traditional archer. I I shoot a compound bow, which actually is only sixty only eight pounds more than what your tread bow is. But we got to talking about arrows, and I was like, dude, what kind of broadheads are you going to use? Flu

flu eras? And are we gonna be able to pack enough eras in the vehicle that we go up there? For you to if you envisioned arrows just like stacked to the ceiling. I envisioned them to be scattered all over Kansas, is what I envisioned them to be. And after a day of shooting, we did not lose a single raw, not one arrow. It was the guide was absolutely impressed with that. We didn't lose a single areas. Man, he said, we did not lose a single area of

the day. That's pretty that. I was impressed with that. Yeah, So what I did so I had these flu flu arrows built. And for those who wouldn't know what the flu flu is, the flu flu is a is a arrow with about a three inch fletching that like three inches from the shaft to the tip up at the fletching five inches long. And so they make basically these big wind veins that slow the arrow down. So the raw comes out of the bow hot comes out fast, but then it uh but then it it The feathers

slow the arrow down. There are four veins on it too, well four feathers. They're not veins, yeah yeah, yeah, and they they I'm testing them getting this worked out here there we go. So there are four of them. And but I was shooting those uh guillotine turkey heads, which ended up being our demise. Okay, I'm gonna go ahead

and tell you that was a mistake. Uh So they're there, these three bladed heads that have straight razor blades that are about two and a half to three inches long, and there are three blades and they just have kind of a like a like almost like a field points center with three blades that stick off at ninety degree angles to the shaft of the era. Is that a

good description. That's pretty good. And my my theory was that it would be a big areas about you know, the broadhead ultimately is about his the circumference of a baseball, and so as opposed to just like a single blade or a regular blade broadhead that would have like an inch cutting diameter like this would be about the size of the baseball. And I thought, well, if I clip a wing or if I hit a bird somewhere, it's gonna it's gonna take him down and the dog is

gonna be able to get the bird. Well, that ended up being a mistake using those and we would late we would find out later in the day. But to make a long story short, I got thirty five. I shot thirty five times today at han on camera on camera thirty five shots. Um the outfitter. We're with um good guys up here in Kansas. We're hunting with with a guy that was using German short hair pointers. Awesome dogs. Man.

I love anything any time that you're hunting or I'm hunting, if there if there's a dog involved in it, a good dog, a trained dog. It enhances the experience so much and it just there, it just brings extra something to the hunt that it's just hard to describe, you know, especially if you're a dog lover, if you like dogs, if you like hunting dogs, dogs that are are bred

too to do a job. And when and when they get out there and you get to experience it with them and watch them do it, it's and and if you know a little bit about dogs, even just a little bit, you it'll impress you how how they utilize them and how you a dog's that you can see a desire that they love what they're doing, you know,

And it was it was really cool. Yeah. So he had he had four German short hairs that he rotated throughout the day and basically we were hunting these big CRP fields which would just look like hay meadows, you know, that would vary in grass height from like like grass maybe just above your knee to grass almost up to

your chest at different times. And these big CRP fields just this part of Kansas just super flat, and there would be roads cut through the CRP where they were driving up and down the roads, just farmers and whatnot. But they also had strips of Milo um that had strips of Milo that were put there to feed pheasants, and so like there might be two d and fifty yards of c RP and there'll be a strip of Milo. Two hundred forty yards of c RP and a strip of Milo. Yeah, like more were those things ys wide?

Twenty yards wide? That's right. And uh so we were just hunting these little milow strips. And what was amazing to me is that you would see these pheasants out in the milow. It was almost like a spotting stock pheasant hunt. Yeah, I really was. And uh these were wild birds, they were They were wild birds, but a lot of them, some of them were incubated birds, which I didn't know anything about. No, that was a new one on me. They called them surrogated birds, and they

explained the way the guid explained to us. They put this, I guess it's a brooder, but it's a box. It was probably five ft wide, um maybe the same, Yeah, about five ft wide probably yeah, eight foot long and

maybe ten inches deep. They had a heater or in it, and water and food in there, and they put those chicks in there, and those pheasant chicks in there when they are one day old, and they take these things, they take them out in springtime to coincides with the same time of the natural hat, the natural hatch, so and you know, predators can't get get get to them, and there's no human interaction with them whatsoever. That everything is automated. And after five or six weeks, depending on

the weather. He said that in five weeks, they would turn them loose if there wasn't a lot of water on the ground, if it wasn't really wet, if it was, or if it was, they would wait a week later and then turn them loose and put them out, and they're just I mean, from then on it's you know, you're on your own. And so they basically they in different parts of Kansas, they use these surrogate surrogate birds, I guess to to supplement the natural breeding populations of birds.

And uh, but these birds are raised wild, They've never been handled by people. I mean they were, they were wild birds. It was a little bit different than what I thought. Um, and I and I think we had kind of an unnatural amount of birds if I'm being honest about it, which you know, more power to them. Um, it's a lot of we had a lot of opportunity today. And UM, but did I already say how many times I shot? Are you sure I didn't. It's worth saying again I shot. We'll hold on. Maybe I hadn't said

it yet. I've said it so many times I can't remember if I said it on the podcast. So we were talking about German short hair pointers. We were talking about CRP fields and this Milo and uh and basically we were we were the wind was blown from the same direction most of the day, and so we would approach these fields on the down wind side and let the birds work into the wind and uh, the dogs working to the winds. Excuse me, and the So for those of you who might who might not have upland

bird hunted before, these are pointing dogs. So these dogs are smelling birds. They're pointing and there literally with their noses in their eyes, pointing to where the bird is holed up. And then you walk in and flush the bird. You you scare the bird and he erupts from his from wherever he's hiding. And and that is wing shooting, when you're shooting that bird when he's off the ground. And uh, in an ideal situation, Sian, you get just

this beautiful point. You have time to walk to the bird, you flush the bird, the bird gets up, and you shoot. But these birds were pretty dern wild and pressured, and so I I don't know if we could put a percentage on it, but I would say that I bet forty maybe thirty five percent of the birds that we even shot at we're not a classic point in flush situation.

You understand what I'm saying, Like, like, maybe the dog would be working the bird, working the bird, and by working the bird, it would mean that the dog would scent, he would smell the bird. We would know there must be a bird close by, watching the tail, by watching the body posture this this bird dog, and we're like, okay, there's a bird in here. Somewhere. The ideal scenario would be he would lock up and be like, Bam, there's

the bird. But maybe the bird would get up ten yards from the dog or fifteen yards from the dog and and fly off. And sometimes we would get a shot at that bird, and sometimes we wouldn't because um, when the when the bird gets up from an unknown location, that's when you're at a massive disadvantage, especially with the boat or with a shotgun. Okay, now I would say, you know, if I'm just guessing, I would say sixty

percent of the time it was a classic point. When the dog is just rock solid on point, we go in and flush the bird and we pretty much know where it's coming from. Okay. I was coming into this hunt with h with no knowledge of pheasants or how they fly. I mean I was on YouTube the other

day looking for how pheasants fly. Um, And I'll tell you what I learned today is that when a pheasant is in pretty deep thick cover, like like chest high grass, he's got to get some vertical jump before he starts to really rock and roll with his wings to get that movement away. And so the ideal situation for us was to get a bird in real fix stuff, so that he had to come up out of it, because when he's coming up out of it going straight vertical,

he's not going real fast. Yeah. And there's also like there's a moment like shooting uh a spring until on a on a sport and clay range spring and till is is the clay that goes straight up off the ground, goes straight up in there, and then there there's a moment in there. The best time to shoot that thing is just it was when it hits the apex of its flight and stops. Yeah, and that's when you shoot it.

And there and there when that bird comes up out of there, there's almost a moment where he's tramping before he transitioned from vertical flight to smoking it out of the area going down wind. That that he's got that little hesitation. And that's that was what we were looking for to be able to shoot it with the bow right right when you would spook went out of thin cover. I felt like that they would just shoot out of there like a rocket at a more steep angle as

opposed to a more vertical angle. Yeah, it was almost like they were coming up and going into and going down wind already as soon as they were just gone, and they might they might not get more than five feet off the ground. Also, the wind was blowing heavily today. How fast do you think it went with it's fifteen to twenty what it was forecasting, and I would say it was ever a bit of it. So fifteen to twenty mile per hour winds. And what these birds do is they get up and they fly with the wind.

That so once they hit that wind current, bam, they're gone. Um. So I didn't have much experience with with with pheasants, or zero experience with peasants I had, I do. I do have experience shooting quail with shotguns and shooting skeet with shotguns, so that would have been my experience. I did a little bit of practicing. I had my son go out in the yard with me and with these flu flu eras we were shooting that uh kind of like coffee cans that we were throwing up in the air.

And UH had you know some success with that? Do you think that helped you? I don't think it did. I really don't. I mean, I don't know that it did, um, but I don't know. It wasn't really that realistic. It just kind of got you thinking about shooting a moving target. I think that's probably the only thing that did. I can tell you the best way to practice for a hunt like this is just to go. Now. If I was going back out tomorrow to do this again, I think I probably would be better. I just don't know

how it wouldn't be. Um. You also might just get lucky quicker, and then you would think you were better. Well, I mean, any you know a muscle memory. You know, it's just like shooting that tread bow. Now, you know, you you just you work at it, and you work at it, and you work at it until you get

proficient with it. So it may it may not have been tomorrow, it may it may have been next week, but you kept doing it, you would have figured it out, and you man the misses that that you had is and you could be able to see it on the video some of them we're not. I mean, it was the difference in the way the broadhead was turned exactly. I mean it was there was I think up whether the prong was to the right or to the left. Yeah,

I don't know how that didn't didn't hit him. Yeah, So I mean they were close, and you're you're talking about a very minuscule amount of a deviation on aero flight or the bird's flight, or the wind blowing to be able to change all that. Well, I don't know if I've said it yet, but I shot thirty five times at pheasants today. Thirty five shots at pheasants, and I straight up hit only one of them in the air,

dead solid, perfect shot one out of three. That that's that statements not entirely true, because I did hit two that were on the ground. I cut feathers off one. You know, throughout the day, you know, when you're wings shooting, you don't shoot a bird on the ground. But as we got further throughout the day, a few times, you know, I was just like, okay, we're just meat hunting here.

And we had a pheasant in some of this milo that we could see standing up out there at about maybe eighteen yards just looking at us, and the dog was at point and um, and I just was like, Hey, I'm just gonna try to skill it shoot this thing. And UM. I missed a couple on the ground, and but one I just straight up hit right in the tail feathers and uh, it didn't kill him. Cut his cut his tail feathers off. Yeah, I'm gonna make some trail flies out of that. So I appreciate him donating

that to the calls. Yeah, we probably could have just ordered him on line for a little less drama than what we went through to do this. But so thirty five shots, thirty five shots and late in the day, was it like shot number thirty two or thirty one that you hit it? Yeah, it was, I think. So

that's pretty close. Well, shot number thirty one. Let's say bird gets up right in front of us, goes to my to my left and a heavy cross wind, and uh draw and you're just drawing and snapshooting, drawing and snapshooting, trying to have pressure on the back of that, you know, on the string. When the birds about to get up, you think, and I shot, and I mean, you know, had to lead the bird because he was going horror, you know, perpendicular to me almost and just thud, just

just nailed the bird in the air. And man, I'll be darned if that sucker didn't just fly off like I mean, it didn't take him out of the air. I mean that it just hit him. We saw a little bit of a puff of feathers, and then we watched him sail about another hundred yards and he did a little dipsy do before he landed, which made us think that we were gonna get him actually, and we we went in there with the dog to try to find him, and we never recovered the bird. But I

don't I don't know. I don't think it killed the bird. I don't think so either, because well, I mean, we had the dog right there and we saw where he went down, and I don't think he killed him. Well, And that's when we learned about the broadheads, was that we basically had to two times that the broadheads just

bounced off the animal. Hey, why don't you, why don't you pull out the text message thread that behind my back that you were right into a few So I had a group of text message with my oldest nephew in my and my older brother and I was giving I give him a rundown. I sent him a text this morning at like seven thirty and I said, Hey, we're filming a pheasant hunt in Kansas today at upland in hunts. Send him a link to the website so they could check it. Out and I said, Clay is

gonna be using this primitive a bow. I'm sure we're gonna be having bologne it for supper tonight. So they got a little charge out of that. They both, Yeah, they give they they give the uh the complementary ha ha you know l O L. So about three oh three, I sent him a texts were over nineteen so far. My oldest nephew's responsibles. Dad Gum, my oldest brother says, well, you're no more surprised than I am. Somebody needs to be backing that guy with a shotgun. At least y'all

can get something to eat. Seven minutes later, it's three e ten and we're oh, so, you know that was something to be said that when you talked about you know, the action was steady, you know, it was we were getting on we were covering ground, we were getting on birds, and the opportunities were were there, so we got after I said, oh, for one, my oldest nephew says, you know,

we may be looking at a new record. And my response to that was he's raising or lowering the bar with every shot, So I guess it's you know, how you want to interpret that. And then The text of the day was the response that said from my nephew that says, I guess it could be both the man is setting new heights of suckage. You just do you clay and so on to say, oh my gosh. They they talked about said, well, it looks like you guys

are gonna be eating at the Sonic. When I set the text for over thirty two, Matthews come back and said, maybe maybe play you tried shooting. That's some sitting hens. You might be able to get a couple of those. Man These guys anyway, they they were they were really thrilled that we were up here doing this and thought it was way cool. And they also thought, you guys will not kill any pheasants, and they were ready and they were right. They were right. They were right this time.

Well so we uh. I feel good though, because I did. I said that if we came up here today and I killed one f Now I did say if I killed one pheasant, that the trip would be a success. And I shot one pheasant good enough to kill it. Yeah, I actually too, if we count the one on the ground good enough to kill but we didn't kill him. That the era just bounced off of and but you know, I think the moral of the story inside of this is, um, wings shooting wing, Shooting birds is super fun and don't

be afraid to just try something different. Like we certainly could have brought shotguns up here and we could have both limited it out by noon. Oh gosh, yeah yeah, by noon we had been on fifteen or so. I would think we took a little break and ate lunch. And the limit of the limit in Kansas for for pheasants is for pheasants per license, hunter per day. And um anyway, man, it was a super fun hunt. I

think we're gonna make a video. I'm not sure exactly how it's gonna go down, but you'll probably be able to see me missing uh thirty three out of thirty five times. You know, Uh, wing shooting is not easy with a shotgun. It is a really not easy shooting a bow. Yeah, yeah, I want to do it again. It can be done. I know it can be done. We need to change up our broad head and we

got to come up with some type of drill. So I don't know if it's gonna be me hitting softballs with a bat and you're shooting at them or or what. But it's gonna take uh, it's it'll just gonna take some practice. Yeah, well, I think it. I think it would also help to do it in multiple days. We were going back out tomorrow after thirty five shots. Today, I feel like I would just be a little more in tune with what was about to happen because about the first fifteen shots, I learned all the moves that

pheasant have. Okay, I mean, like if a pheasant getting up could be categorized, I bet there's fifteen different ways that they can do it. Sometimes they come straight up, Sometimes they go with the wind and stay low. Pheasant can fly probably quarter mile, or they might just fly fifties sixty seventy yards in light so you can go you can go after him again. So you know, there was yeah, well a lot of a lot of birds we got more than one shot at because we would

watch where they went and go get them. And so, you know, the first fifteen shots, I was just learning what pheasants do, and then after that I was a lot a lot, uh, I mean I kind of knew what was probably gonna happen, but you just you know, there were a couple of times when I was just out of position when I had a real good opportunity. The very first shot that I shot at today, I actually cut feathers And that was probably the most ideal

pheasant movement of the day. It was cover a bird in thick cover that came straight up and just kind of hovered there for a minute almost and I was able to shoot, and I mean it just, oh, it looked like it just was gonna torch him, probably five or six yards away when he comes up. Yeah, and and and you know, cut feathers off the bird. And uh so you know, there were there were a lot of shots that just looked good but super fun. And you know, I think we we wanted to talk about

like some of the benefits of small game hunting. But you know, I mean, I'm I'm a big game hunter at heart, big time, but if you can branch out do some social hunting. You know that You've heard me talk about it so many times. But there's so many benefits to small game hunting, none of not of which the least is uh, the social aspects of it. I mean, if we were deer hunting today or bear hunting today, we probably would all been off by ourselves and coming

back to camp to talk about what happened. But you know, we're together all day with our guide Arden and just had a good time. We probably walked there. Brent was getting closer to ten miles. I was guessing closer to seven to eight miles that we walked. I mean we walked a lot today, truly walked on the ground. You know, the grounds, its flat ground. It's it's pretty easy walking.

There's no issues there, you know. It was and the GUIDs, you know, are and he put us, he would put us out, put us in one direction, taking the dogs. We take the dogs. We'd go into the wind with the dogs and he, you know, he may come around on the other side a quarter of a mile away and pick us up and then we would you know, go to a different different area or whatever. So there was a lot of a lot of movement. We traveled a lot, a lot of fields that we looked at.

So they and they've got many they got a lot of places to hunt up there, and a lot of birds. So it was it was something all the time. There was no there was no downtime, no downtime. We didn't even break for lunch. We knew we had one day to get it done. If we had a couple of days, we probably would have taken a little bit more easy. But when uh, when uh, when it came lunchtime, you know, we we could have broke and gone back and had lunch in town or something, and I just said, hey,

let's just keep hunting. Let's just eat some snacks and just keep hunting. But anyway, small game hunting is fun, super fun, great time of year to do it, whether you're squirrel hunting or pheasant hunting. And and you know, these hunts aren't aren't cheap, but at the same time, they're not expensive. Like if a guy was going to uh, if a guy was gonna plan for this, you know, a lot of these places are around four hundred dollars uh a day for for hunting and and having a

place to stay and having meals and whatnot. The facilities were very nice, the food was awesome. Yeah, you know, and if you think about even going on a vacation, let's just say you were gonna go on a three day vacation, you know you're gonna and you're gonna stay in a decent hotel, You're gonna spend a hundred hundred dollars two hundred and fifty dollars on a decent hotel wherever you're gonna stay and anyway. I mean, that's a lot of money to me. But at the same time,

that's not a lot of money. Um, so it's it's affordable. And this was an outfitted hunt for sure. And now there's there's places where you can hunt, uh do it yourself hunting if you've got dogs, um, but not out here, and I can tell you probably wouldn't have. I doubt there's many places where you could get as much action as we did in a short amount of time. But it was a fun hunt, absolutely fun hunt, well worth

the trip, well worth a six hours. Not my only complaint that this gas station coffee that was straining through an old tennis shoe that we stopped about ten minutes ago and got the guy that looked like he'd come just here with the pork job.
