@Eric-bh7jy 6 месяцев назад

Was anyone else wondering where that full size shovel came from? Hard to imagine they carried something like that in if the hike was as bad as it was made to look? 😂

@MuleyFreak 6 месяцев назад

Can’t imagine they found it up there - especially if it looks like it’s 20 years old lol

@Eric-bh7jy 6 месяцев назад

@@MuleyFreak What crazy bastard brought that thing up there. Lol

@danfinch6103 5 месяцев назад

Hmmm full length shovel appears at just the moment it was needed. Almost makes you think they went back to the truck and got the shovel. Can't believe they were as far back as the video implies. Outside of that, great video to watch

@Eric-bh7jy 5 месяцев назад

@@danfinch6103 yeh. From the response they gave and some of the discussion in it, the area sounds like a well known spot that has been used for years though. So who knows. Sweet Buck either way

What a great film. God was looking down on you guys for sure. Pouring rain to keep the brush moist and quiet, those other bucks leaving and leaving him alone. The fact that he was bedded in the sun for hours and didn’t move. Payton getting the buck to standup by making something “ting”. What a great buck. Every bit of it was earned. Well done!

@wildwestweimaraners 5 месяцев назад

@@NEPTOONSKI54 I’m not asking for a unit or honey hole. I respect people’s hard work to find areas for success. All I was asking was the state and if it was private or public. That make the difference in know whether an animal is growing naturally or being exposed to additional nutrition and genes that cause the extra growth.
