Nice video. I like the items labeled, but I’d rather know what brand they are. For instance, I know it’s a battery bank… who is the maker? Put that on your labels. Nice video.
@@theuplander9127 I often like to take screenshots of items I like so I can reference later. That’s why I prefer the labeling that way. However, your way is probably more business savvy as it forces people to review your links. I get it. Either way nice video.
@@surfearth1 sounds like a good strategy, might use that for a future video. Just a heads up I have no affiliation with the links in the video description, I make $0 off it. I made this video to help folks out.
Great video! gave me some great ideas for the GoPro. I have the carport pants and those are really good for hunting. I added suspenders and no issues walking around. A bit jealous about the Citori. provably my next purchased, likely on 20 gauge. thanks for sharing great video!
Thanks for comment man glad the video was helpful for you. I can’t recommend the citori enough. It hurt when I first bought mine but I know it’ll last me for life.
Hi Kenneth. Best place to set up are at sunrise or sunset near grain bins, hedgerows, or trees near a wheat field. Usually the dove like to fly in and out of roost/feed during those times and a great place to find them. By the time we get the first cold snap they migrate south so earlier in the season the better.
I'm an AZ upland hunter and I really appreciated this video. Really well done and I appreciate you thinking of the small details like pants, socks, etc. The honey stick tip was worth watching the video by itself - just ordered a bag and anxious to test that out with my dog. She doesn't really take any treats or snacks when she hunts usually. I recently bought a gopro because I want to start filming my hunts with my Brittany bird dog and I think your battery bank + adapter is going to be a big help. I added quite a few items to my Amazon list. I would definitely be interested in seeing what settings you use on your GP for filming in different conditions - low light, high noon, dense brush, etc. Have you ever tried that hat clip mount? Do you ever film with a head mount and handle mount? What video editing software do you use?
Hi Justin thanks for watching my video, I’m glad it helped brother. Hopefully your dog likes the honey sticks, you know the dangers of heat more than me being from arizona. I don’t use a hat clip mount, instead I use a head strap mount. I feel like it stays on my head and distributes the weight better than the hat clip. Although I’ve never tried the hat clip. I only film with a head mount since I need as much focus hitting birds lol I think it’d be too much with a stick mount unless I was trying to film other kind of shots (commentary, scenery, etc). For video editing I use ShotCut. It’s a pretty good free video editing software and makes things easy to look good for RU-vid. I’ll comment after this with my GoPro settings I use for all conditions, it hasn’t let me down in low light/high light etc. good luck on your future hunts, I’d love to get some Arizona quail some day.

You might need a different gun next time. Wrong gun for this hunt. Always busy reloading when the birds flush. Too much talking. Oh damn every time he misses a shot. Maybe try to get in shape ahead of time too. Not easy hunting these birds. And what kind of Hunter shoots quail on the ground. Not good!
Hi, thanks for the video, it's really good and informative. Out of curiosity, what brand(s) of ammo you are using for bird hunting? The good ones which are not necessarily expensive. Thanks
No problem @Amir E, thanks for the support I’m glad my video helped. I usually use Remington or Kent for ammo. Both work really well for me and are usually at a decent price.
Can't tell you how many times I've started a hunt looking straight up psyching myself to start climbing... Can totally relate. Great video and beautiful country. I gotta ask, this Idaho or Oregon side?
thanks Jeff I really appreciate the support man. I'm thinking I'll do a full camp setup video along with my chukar hunt this year mid November. Good luck with your hunt, I love pheasant hunting in ND!
@@theuplander9127 I didn't know if you were wearing a lapel mic or not. I got my camera set up on my back with a pvc frame inside a backpack. Keeps the mic far enough away but close enough to hear me talk. Gives kind of a third person view too. You've got great stuff though man, lots of potential here for sure.
@@azhunt Naw man, yeah just the gopro. Watched a video with your 3rd person view pretty cool man. I need to make a trip to AZ for quail hunting sometime. I've heard great things.
I Born and bred live in Montana, I have recently Peaked my 13-year-old son’s interest In grouse hunting we have got sage grouse and Huns But we can’t seem to get into the sharpies, all the places I used to hunt them we haven’t seen any! Do you have any suggestions where to start general area for him to have a successful home??
@@rogerschrotenboer2166 Hey Roger, happy to help a fellow Montanan. Around Circle, MT has pretty good sharptail hunting. I'd also recommend watching this video by the BBB podcast to help scout for sharpies ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OJJGFXBHJAY.html. Normally I look for hilltops with good, thick like carpet grass with a food source nearby (berries, wheat, etc). Hopefully this helps, good luck with your hunts and I hope your son enjoys it as well!
@@theuplander9127 we had an absolute blast! Will be making the trek annually from here on out! Learned a ton and dogs left better than they came! So that's a win! Have to try and link up at some point!
Hey Omar, sorry for the delay in my GoPro settings video. Life's been a bit busy lately. I'll put my settings for your below so you don't have to wait any longer on me. Hopefully this helps you capture some great hunts!

Hi, what chokes are you using, which do you use for your first shot and what shells do you use? Looking at getting an over/under for ruffed grouse hunting.
Hey Marc! I'm using an improved cylinder choke for my under barrel and a modified choke for my over barrel for grouse/chukar/hun/dove hunting. I'll shoot with my under first (improved cylinder) then my over (modified) second. I've found this setup works well since I'll need more spread/shorter range for the birds when they first flush and follow up (if needed) with a longer range/tighter spread for my second shot. I also like having my second shot be my over barrel since it lines up better with my sights when I need to really concentrate on hitting a bird with my second shot. I usually use 12ga 6 shot 2-3/4in shells for all grouse and chukar hunting. Hope this helps, let me know what shotgun you end up going with!
2021 was a dry year, bad for grass and cover. Chukar are hard to get close to on open slopes in short grass. Birds flush further. I use terrain to sneak up on birds where I think they are, popping up around the knolls and rocks. Tough hunting, tough birds and tough terrain (it even makes quail tough hunting). Good luck next time and thanks for the video!
For the record most entertaining video I have watched in a long time. If it makes you feel better I have been there on a total day like that. Oddly enough within eyesight of where you were.
