In this episode, the guys catch up on the bittersweet end of the football season, reflecting on how the Chicago Bears overachieved this year despite the tough finish. The talk quickly shifts to the woods after Todd shares a cool discovery—a vintage "artifact" Easton arrow found while scouting. This leads into a deep dive on the technical side of archery, breaking down what those old-school aluminum numbers like "2413" actually mean for arrow diameter and spine. Along the way, they share a few laughs over a heated debate comparing the simple perfection of oatmeal cream pies to the "bland junk" of sushi, while looking forward to hitting the Iowa Deer Classic and other big expos coming up this March.

The conversation takes a more serious turn as they look at how technology is changing the way we hunt, specifically through the lens of 360-degree cameras. Todd talks about how reviewing wide-angle footage was a total eye-opener, showing him exactly how many deer he was missing while distracted by his phone. This sparks a bigger discussion on hunting ethics and the growing controversy surrounding drones and trail cameras on public land. They weigh the "mind-boggling" number of cameras found in the woods against the potential for new regulations and the backlash from social media warriors. It’s a candid look at the struggle to balance high-tech gear with the traditional spirit of the hunt.
