Im very curious how the audio was done. River in the background flowing at a good clip, yet Janis sounds like he is in a small quiet room. My only guess is Latvian sorcery.
Thanks for posting this. I have been trying to piece together what you guys carry in your kits for a while now. I already have my kit but I will be making some additions. Great video!
thanks Janis. Week out from Idaho turkeys, o' and spring bear. what?!? thats right, next saturday a little private land SE ID style and then up to the big woods near Salmon to drop some bait and head fishing. Good luck this year folks, lets have some fun and #keepitpublic
Those adhesive targets are awesome. They make them with one inch squares for sighting scopes and they have this thing that makes the spot where the bullet hit glow and show up nicely.
Good kit as both an Ultralight Backpacker and wilderness hunter. Going light allows me to cover more distance, pack out more meat, and feel more comfortable.
jon-anthony Lewis you really need him to spoon feed it to you? Band aids, antiseptic, gauze, ace bandage and whatever else you want in your first aid kit.
It's a really good video, it really is; big props. I was wondering if you might agree that a detailed inventory, either in the description section or incorporated into the video as a graphic element, might really take it over the top into "great video" status. It would seem a very practical addition and make the video equally practical, don't you think?
I don't think you mentioned the wd-40. Many people hate it, and I understand why we would not lubricate guns with it (unless it was the only thing available), but I like it for some things. I am interested in whether you carry it and what you use it for.
A commercially produced tourniquet is a must for the first aid kit. Your belt isn't going to stop an arterial bleed...well worth the $9 and two ounces.
A better solution to debris in the barrel especially if it’s blocked is an old fashioned net curtain wire, run it through the bore then run the bore snake through as a bore snake will not get through a barrel that has been stuck in the mud, the wire is plastic coated so will not damage the bore
See my post above. These are the sort of details that are the difference between entertainment and educational. I guess we must remember that RU-vid is moving to compete with TV, cable, and paid streaming services now. It's been being used for profit by a lot of folks for a bit already. As a result a good many videos are now being produced just like commercial TV; catchy titles and low production costs for better profits. A catchy title that generates a click generates a "view". More views gets the "RU-vidr" closer to profits. Like all business models profits are a matter of more money coming in than going out. Accomplish that and you get the hits that can generate profits. Keeping production costs low means getting the crew off the clock quickly and is accomplished by doing less exposition and fewer insert shots (among many other things that aren't as obvious). All this adds up to videos that are entertaining but short on details even while still giving the superficial appearance of being educational. I believe that's where this particular video falls apart. Much of it might have to do with how the shoot was organized also. A good AD can plan a good shoot that covers all the bases that need to be covered in addition to keeping costs to a minimum. Of course, that is thier very purpose. The "Tail Method" video was a good example of how to make an educational video that's also entertaining to watch. That's assumes that one finds educating oneself an entertaining endeavor, however.
@@SomeplaceWonderful This was a good video, don't get me wrong, but what would make it a GREAT video would be if Steven Rinella were to come down from the heavens and shoot a deer for me. After cooking and serving it to me on the couch, Janis would do the dishes, Ryan Callaghan would tuck me in at night and I'd fall asleep to them telling me every single they know about hunting. It's a five minute video bub, get a grip.
What you should do is get out in the field and bring what you think you need. Eventually you'll find out what you want to carry and what you don't want. It's fine to use videos like this to help determine what to bring with you but what works for Janis might not work for you. For example I don't use water purification tablets, Instead I use a small water filter. Also I have great confidence with my fire starting abilities so I don't bring fuel tablets. Find out what works best for you as an individual.
Another pro tip....dump out the gold bond and rinse the bottle good. Refill with cocaine and you're all set, makes for good rationing on the trail, closes easily and can be stored in your pocket. Very, very inconspicuous.
Because you can use tape for anything from a bandaid to fixing something and by wrapping around something you have in the kit already it weighs less and takes up less room than packing the whole roll.
utilities kit should contain a 1st rate aid kid, being an Army medic, you can never carry enough compression bandages! The most important is aspirin and tylenol. The motto I live by is from my Boy Scout training "BE PREPARED!"
I feel like there aren't enough black hunters, like, I used to know of a couple of chaps, but I wonder why we never went hunting together,,, I think they were more into their groups and wouldn't hunt as much as like one trip per year.. we need more black hunters, and we need more women and children hunting also..
A bore snake to clear obstructions from the barrel? Do you understand how a bore snake works? If you have an obstruction, it is %100 the wrong tool for the job. Routine cleaning=great, obstruction clearing=useless.
