I just love how you didn’t edit out the screw up with the safety. I feel like most hunting channels edit out the mistakes. I make them all the time, so it’s nice to know seasoned vets like you still make them. Great content and great job! Keep ‘em coming!!!!
This is the time of year where I like to start my day off in the tree stand. I love to fish, but nowhere near as much as I love to hunt. Thanks for all the great videos, have enjoyed your channel since day 1.
I think it's probably safe to say everyone who has hunted with a gun or crossbow has forgotten the safety once or twice. That's one thing the good old bow has on other weapons, no safety to worry about.
You always make the best videos. The only outdoors man I subscribe to. I have been hunting 45 years but have learned a lot from you. Pocket bow was pretty wild.
Shooting shorter arrows out of a crossbow, I found that it can be hard to get them out of a target because they bury up and there is nothing to grab onto. Pistol crossbow handy to carry around. Might could attach some type of stock to making aiming more steady. Congrats on the doe.
I have the same crossbow. I believe the problem you had was because you used an expandable Broadhead and it takes a lot of energy to open. Are use a Ramcat and it blows through every time. I don’t shoot over 20 yards with it.
Neat little weapon there! I haven't checked the regulations in my state yet to see if something like that would be legal or not, but I've honestly never seen anyone hunt with one before.
Where have you been been missing your videos been looking for them every day. Today was a good day. Congrats that’s a cool bow. Does that count as a regular crossbow? Really glad to see you come up with a video been missing your videos this year.
My brother has a camp in Tensas parish north Louisiana and it's some of the best public land hunting you should come and give it a try definitely have a chance a big buck for sure
Going on a solo camp tonight backpacking gear 40-55 degrees no heat just me my tent, camo, and bow. I’ll get 3 good hunts in…something is going to catch a broad head.
Love this video! You should try hunting with the Umarex Airsaber, this will be my first year hunting with it. That sucker is super accurate and goes up to 3600 PSI of air pressure and slings arrows around 450 fps
They seem pretty cool even thought about getting one but I can’t get around the price $420 for something that you can’t shoot past 20 or get a pass through with when I paid $177 for a carbon express off eBay and it blows through deer like they ain’t there way over priced for what it is
U should consider a ghillie hat or net hood to hide ur shoulders on the ground. Ud be amazed how long they will try to figure u out. No need for a whole suit or top,
You have got to get with Josh from The Water Swatters. All he does is hunt with these pistol crossbows. Think he shot 5 or 6 last year. I would love to see yall do a video together!
Why does everyone think the deer are "small" in the south? In my state along the main rivers and their drainages, bucks average over 200# at 3.5 years of age. 225-250# is common. Most of the does are 130-165#. We have records of 250# does and bucks over 300 pounds. In the hills and piney woods, the deer are smaller on average. Does 110-130# and bucks 150-180#. I think this same pattern would play out in most southern states. The smallest deer on average I have ever seen were in Texas, especially in the hill country. I have hunted NW Oklahoma the past couple years. The deer out there in the canyons were about the size of our piney woods deer. The deer along the river bottom were the same as in my state.
I respect your opinion but it can definitely take a big buck. That arrow didn’t have a problem passing through. Of course that was a young doe but you’ve also gotta be close. If you can do that. You can kill a buck. I’ve seen it happen
You worked hard for that one. You’ll likely get more penetration/pass through with a fixed blade. My experience with Shwackers are good per lethality but it’s common to not have as forceful of a pass through. Face covering would probably help you not getting picked out. In all, that little weapon is pretty cool.
Hi, foreigner here, this got me confused - if the land is public (i.e. belongs to the state or federal govt. i presume?) then who and why would plant and harvest crops on it? Does government do planting and harvesting crops?
Hey @catman i just found 3000acres of public land in tn they have corn fields and ponds and hard wood on it, any pointers on were to scout and hunt. There is 3 ponds on the edge of the corn fields. There is also a funnel of woods leadinding to the pond going into the corn field. Any pointers.
Enjoyed the video, but i have a question. You were on the ground and most of the time you weren't wearing camo and the deer saw you every time, even those yearlings. You realize your face is li,e a white beacon in the woods. I also would recommend a fixed cut on contact head instead of an expandable.
crossbows these days are getting out of hand. archery season is longer, because its intended to be harder, y'all hunting with these crossbows that can drop deer at 100 yards with zero skill required, crossbows should be for kids and old folks who cant draw real bows. that being said, holy shit that little thing sounds like it packs a good whallop,
Funny, I’ve been searching RU-vid and can’t find any people hunting with a crossbow at 100 yards. If it was so “easy” it’d be all over RU-vid. Must not be as easy as the anti’s think it is.
