I would never shout at people over what to eat but if you think that is graphic and you eat meat killed in an abattoir you should see animals being rendered there. Expose yourself to what is hidden but benefits you daily. Great lucky video! one invasive species!
Ya you could tell she went into panic mode. Tried to cross a little creek, probably after seeing a coyote in the timber and when she started slipping they pushed her down the creek where the it dumped into the Mississippi River. A lot less snow out there and she was screwed then.
A day in the life of a trapper, never leave the yard without a tow rope, scoop shovel and a number for every farmer that you know that might give you a pull 🤣, thanks for taking us along for the ride 👍👍
Your not way out there...Your a deer hunter brotherman...You have a bad case of antleritis which is common among us deer hunters...The only cure is finding bone and it looks like your on the road to recovery...Awesome video brotherman thanx for sharing!!!
Thanks.. I’ve had similar experiences with videos. I typically turn the volume down, just food for thought. Another option would be subtitles. Appreciate the feedback, I’m definitely not an expert when it comes to making a RU-vid video.
Have you ever used a battery operated DeWalt sawsall to cut antlers off of a dead buck ? A small sawsall I mean, it does the job very well and it's light to carry around in a knapsack
You should never have gotten that close! By that time, the mink could have ran off and the rabbit was going to die by that time anyway. Just watch from afar and leave nature to nature.
Are you a rabbit physician or a mink behavioral specialist? Because I am, and guess what, you’re wrong. Oh, and I am nature I’ve spent more time in the woods than that rabbit and mink combined x10. So I’ll go where I please. Respectfully, Tony V MD Rabbit-Mink physician Mink Behavioral Health
Great story! All the bits and pieces that can be added to a successful harvest, just make it that much more special. This is good stuff. Thanks for sharing
Thanks man. Ya there really are some giants out there that are almost like ghosts. We have a lot of pressure here in WI but we are blessed to live in a state that has big whitetails
I appreciate it! That was kind of a poor choice of words I didn’t necessarily loose total interest in the marsh, I really enjoyed being back and seeing all the new sign ect.. but since I started hunting hill country bucks in that rugged terrain I was hooked. The Mississippi River corridor from Minnesota down through missouri has produced so many giant deer and I really love that there are just not many people living in these areas compared to other areas of WI. There are just so many new challenges and I really love that change of pace.
Hahaha we’ll have to meet up half way when I’m leaving WI to hunt Southern Ohio! We’re lucky to live in states that have big deer, and a lot of public land that’s for sure.
@@jasonnester9514 haha there definitely are. Southern Ohio is pretty rugged and I know it can be tough to hunt but I suppose that’s one of the ingredients for producing giant deer.
Great video!! Aside from putting in the miles, what would you say is the best advice for finding sheds without having intel from a trail cam? South facing slopes or maybe targeting where they are feeding that time of year?
Thank you! Ya food is always king at that time of year. This winter has been pretty strange throughout the Midwest with some very mild temps after a small stretch of deep snow and cold. But in a normal winter conditions the most critical part of the deers day is the first hour or two of daylight. It’s the coldest right before dawn and they need that sun to hit them so I really like east and south east faces. When it comes to food I like to find the good secondary food sources inside the cover like areas where the red oak are getting dug up or locust pods or horse tail ect..
I’ll try and keep track this year. I was a little over 600 miles last year. I can’t walk nearly as far in a day in hill country, in the marsh when everything is still froze up I usually can put on 18-21 miles in a day.
Hey quick questions I know as someone that asks people to fish their property and once in a blue moon to hunt(which has a low success rate if you don’t personally know them). What is the success rate of getting permission to shed hunt cause there are like 3-4 neighbors I would love to ask to look on their property for shess
I guess that depends on how good of a salesman you are, in my opinion it’s more of how you present yourself to the landowner. I don’t ask many people but when I do it’s usually because I either already have a shed spotted or I’m looking for a particular bucks antlers that may be just off the public. I would say I almost always get a yes but I have got a few no’s throughout the years.
I seriously wonder how people find sheds like this cause last season I went all in and waited till cams showed no more antlers and found like 2 in an hour but on 3 different combined properties only found 2 spikes after the first two when 2 of the 3 properties had multiple average to above average sized legal bucks on them yet I see these RU-vidrs find what I find for an entire season of probably over 10 miles of walking in one or 2 hour long searches
Ya sometimes it’s so frustrating walking properties that you know has a ton of bucks and not picking any up. I have a few different strategies on the order of properties I shed hunt. Running cameras specially for late season helps a lot. If I’m looking for one particular deer on a place knowing when he sheds is important because he’ll shed very close to the same date every year. Knowing the wind direction of a window when bucks shed is important to where those bucks would have been bedded during that time. But really just putting on quality miles is what does it. I was between 600-700 miles last year which isn’t crazy but probably more than a majority of guys who don’t have that amount of time in the spring.
@@archeryonly5629ya if you’ve seen some of the closest motels or hotels to the places I hunt you’d realize there’s about a 25% chance of surviving the night.
Awesome finds bud, congrats! the title of your video says "public" ground, but with all the cameras I'm assuming most of the big sheds came off private..well done and good luck this season.
Why would you assume that the big sheds came off private? I run over 50 cameras on public across multiple counties, and sometimes multiple states. I’m not sure what country you’re from but here it’s allowed to run cameras on public. It’s nice that our bucks don’t have the ability to read signs or have onX so they don’t know when they are on public land. Hopefully that doesn’t change anytime soon.
Bad assumption on my end@@tonyvanasten, after checking out your Instagram I see you indeed focus mostly on public, awesome! The reason I mistakenly jumped to that conclusion is because here in Michigan a camera on public will last about a week if you are lucky, I also know guys in Iowa who have the same problem. Congrats on your finds and good luck this season 👍
