when they're together in person the podcast seems so much better than when they're on a zoom call or whatever. keep it up guys, good stuff
Agreed. That’s most of the reason this episode too a while to come out
My ONLY complaint was Logan's mic cutting off periodically.
Other than that, I love this. You guys are amazing and inspirational
I truly appreciate the energy “The Core 4” brings to these PODCASTS. I work in “Corporate America” and miss the excitement of being in the Army. We went to Devils Tower from Florida and stopped in the BRCC store in Clarksville on the way there and back. Awesome store! We need one in Tampa!
Awesome job. Even my Wife, who is a Vegetarian appreciated the chat about conservation. Mad respect!
Glad I’m not the only hunter with a vegetarian wife haha, wish you safe hunts my friend.
The Bear Hunt!!! Yes! Love these core Four episodes.... I’m actually surprised it didn’t open with a BRCC commercial of Mat on the bear rug with nothing but a smile and a mug full of coffee. Maybe a couple of AR’s 😂
If anyone’s seen the picture of Evan’s hand in proportion to the bears then you know the thing is MASSIVE. 🐻
My favorite podcast! I love hunting stories and this was nothing short of an awesome hunting story. I thought from the beginning you guys payed some random guide and you guys went to Alaska and had a nice camping trip, but man was I wrong! The suspense and anticipation was there lol the episode with Cole on was good and glad this one finally came out. Congratulations ☕️🇺🇸
That was an awesome story. Thank you for sharing it with us!
You guys …yes, we Alaskans are waiting patiently to hear your expieremce🌟💯❤️🔥
Awesome story guys. Sounds like a once in a lifetime experience. Super jealous. I really like that picture of Evan with the Bear showing his respect to the life he took.
Finally!! Awesome show, and worth the wait! 🍻
Thank you for this missed these! Totally agree on the conservation aspect!
Great to hear about your hunt, great bears and loved the descriptions, felt like we were there!!
This story was well worth the wait! Congratulations on the successful hunt!
An amazing story and it was worth the wait!
dudes... i enjoyed this story very much, thank you for sharing it with us.
I've been waiting for this moment... FOR ALL MY LIFE!!!!! BOOM 💥 boom boom boom boom!!!
Loving this podcast so far!!
Git R Done! Well worth the anticipation, thanks boys.
I love how you touched on the conservation side of the hunt
Thank you for doing such a good job of not only sharing your hunt, but explaining Alaska: logistics, conservation, economy, culture, terrain, smells, weather, mobility, Cubs & tundra tires. Excellent guide. Worth his weight in gold. 40 years here…love AK stories. Stories are important.
Sheep hunt? BRCC in AK?….
Evan for president. Pulleeze!!!
Worth the wait! Happy Friday all! 🤘
“It’s my Ego talking “ 😂... True.
Humble Matt
This brought back some memories of my youth working up on the North Slope back in the 70s. Good story.
I am so stoked you guys did this adventure of a lifetime. I would really,really dig that. My hunt of a lifetime was Elk, I didn't harvest, but got to track and saw one. The bugle was very primal for me. Congrats guys.
That doesn’t have to be a once in a life time hunt. Save up 5-7500 and you can pay a guide and kill an elk every year.
ahhhhhhh this is fantastic, thank you
What a great adventure to share with buddies. BTW, I'm in Austin and really dig the store in Boerne. Thumbs up!
Super cool pod
Finally! Love it!
Wow, it must have taken a week to recharge the adrenaline pump. Non-hunters will not get it. The camaraderie in hunting is a part of life that REAL hunters live for. The love of the animal, and the ups and downs you experience with your fellow hunters will stay with you the rest of your life.
A bag dump from these three from the trip would be awesome, a little insight on the gear and what was liked/disliked
this is why i love Alaska
Love this
That’s an awesome story guys wish y’all could have got it on video! Great bears congratulations!
I can’t wait to get back stateside and hit the BRCC shop in North Richland Hills, TX
I know I'm a bit late to the party but I truly want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the inspiring words that you give with every single video you make. This one though gave me a palpable feeling of the passion you put into all the things you do, and I hopeI will realize myself enough in my personal and working life to be able to do, as you correctly put it, epic shit just like you guys. Thanks again and lots of love from a HUGE fan from Italy, if you ever open shop on this side of the pond I want to be first in line to get myself a highly coffeinated taste of freedom. Keep fucking sending it boys!
Excellent 👌
FUCKING FINALLY, I haven't had blue balls this bad since I had my appendix out.
Well done Lads 👍🏻🧸🧸🧸
Epic.
Finally. Almost forgot about the bear hunt.
It’s interesting to hear y’all talk about the positive effects of planning, prepping and executing a ‘mission’ with fellow veterans.
There is a wonderful non profit organisation called ‘Warrior Bonfire Program,’ which I made a 6 part documentary on (available on Amazon Prime) which highlights the positive impact of trips such as the one you’re describing.
Thank you so much guys for the work that you do for the veteran community. Keep up the great work.
EPIC
You guys deserved that hunt you guys have worked hard to build such a great company. This has always been one of my dream hunts I’m working my ass off to be able to do a brown bear hunt, Cole would be such a great guide to do it with. Great episode I’ve been chomping at the bit to watch this.
The core Four rocking it. Finally Bear 30🤘 Evan what was the measurement of that paw? JT C O D magazine signatures ?
Yawl should definitely think about doing the 40 mile herd north of Fairbanks to go hunt Caribou. It's probably the best site in the world to go stalk a herd and work them to get the big bulls and just sitting on the mountains in the early morning is just a awesome site.
We almost started a riot waiting
FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!
Fuck yeah,stories for the grandkids
Nice
Great episode!! Is Mat getting huge?
Sounds like a awesome hunt, if you guys ever want to hunt in africa and go after some dangerous game it would be great to see you guys in my neck of the woods in south africa.
Awesome hunt Guy's !! Did you dudes carry handguns and if what calibers?
I love you guys, yall are always a blast to listen to. Love your product, love your service, loved your movie. I know yall are catching a lot of heat on stuff right now over I don't even know what exactly. Do you have plans to address it openly and honestly and put it to bed?
I don't care where you stand, or if you even have a stance, as long as you keep helping our veterans, and keep making premium grade Java that I can cold brew. I'm just tired of all the ambiguity on all the hate bc everyone is turnt up to 11 these days.
@evanhafer on instagram. look under the IGTV tab.
@@BlackRifleCoffeePodcast thanks!
“Conceive believe achieve” - Michael Bisping
Its was freaking cool when Evan went into his rant about sending a scid to someone yeah E until they wake up people have to know we r in this together I have the greatest respect 4u men
Glad this is finally out Jesus christ 😂
Here for the comments🤭
I saw that earlier post, did anyone get scolded? Lmao
maybe
@@BlackRifleCoffeePodcast #firedave
Bear skin rug everywhere 🙌🏼 Car seats?
mmmm in south texas? sounds toasty
Is Logans audio cutting out for anyone else? Or is he just saying something that is redacted?
Doesn’t sound redacted.
Nothing redacted. It just be like that sometimes
We got our bear see ya buddy. Eesh.
Your stories are awesome glad you got to do humanly and didn't get ate yourself
Bout damn time ya sandbaggers! Awesome story!
Black Rifle makes my day go smooth on a daily basis and don’t think I’ll ever change coffee brands ever again.
respectfully request more instructor earl content
Did you guys take any large sidearms with you?
ok stay calm everyone iTS HAPPENING
Anyone know where Logan got that hat from?
No homo but damn Jared is looking scrumptious
so flew to king salmon or tyonek?
Was Logan's mic cutting out for anyone else?
Fuckin epic!!!
Why does Logan's mic cut out so much? Is it intentional or technical issues?
it be like that sometimes
Finally... haha!
Next goal a Bow at 5o yards in. Full on Fred Bear
Guys, you can take one week to bear hunt in CO each season. I know it sucks being CO, but you'll kill a bear and you won't lose cell service.
Those are black bears. They went brown bear hunting. There’s about a 500 pound difference.
Was the first post a mistake?
happy accident
Forty four minutes in, they look like. Little green men.
And from. A mister Bear's point of view. They 'are'. Little green men. Meaning that. All of the barista bears. The bar keeping bears. The gasoline pumping bears. And even all the shoe shop sales bears. Not to mention all of the dead beat bears. Who weren't doing anything else. Would have. And could have. Jumped over counters. Grabbed magazines. And got stuck into it. Very quickly. No? Hence, the idea. Of keeping a signature. That was minimized? Sort of like media counter narrative. And cyber espionage.
Logan wonders aloud ocassionally. How something such as Ukraine happens. Just look at any bear hunt strategy. From a bear population point of view. As explained. It's necessary to manage the situation. To maintain the population balance. This is where covert war strategy too. Comes from. And certain countries. Are more expert in that low level conflict. Than others. Owing to their experience. Or not. In just the kind of thing. The core four. Talked about.
Is Logans mic cutting out?
I noticed that too
Jared seems fed up with Evan.
He just gets hungry
@@EvanHaferblackrifle HAHAHA ok that made me laugh, take care man
Jared 'Bear Paws' Taylor
I hope it was an unappreciative bear..
Took ya fuckin long enough 😂
Did trevor got a bear?
Fucking finally 😂
10:11 REDACTED
Please make a Dolphin in a Bear Pelt or something in a bear pelt shirt or hat, I’ll buy all
I picture the wolf in sheep's clothing from the Warner Brother's Ralph Wolf and Sam Sheepdog cartoon, only a dolphin.
We waited this long for a prop? Your in person in the same room has the same vibe as your over the internet podcasts. Please just do as many core 4 podcasts as you can like one a week at least please even if you are in 4 different states and all online.
Finally. Fucking a
I can see that JT is really butt hurt about not being included.
he was super bummed about not getting to sit quietly on a remote mountain for hours on end
Break out the france press Jared!
I am one minute into this episode. The hype better be worth it. Otherwise I'm going back to store brand. I said what I said.
Store brand? Yikes my dude
This never happened the bear is a hired actor
a bear's day rate is insane. cheaper to do it for real
Way to just steal the team song from the grand tour
this comment would be better if it was true
i hear these tough guys been losing their way........you better slow your roll before i have to come down their and give you a few slaps
If you do make it down here, plan a couple extra days. There are some must try restaurants in town you don't want to skip out on
@@BlackRifleCoffeePodcast cool thanks
@@BlackRifleCoffeePodcast subbed 😉
Talk about a long tease
my dream is to kill a Kodiak bear with a bow
That has got to be a BIG ASS BOW. Honestly would be cool just to shoot the bow
Sad the language had to ruin it. I’m out
