My Self Filming Camera Gear & Recommendations for YOU 

Hey everyone! I am aware that the video pauses half way through. I'm not sure what caused the issue but I am hunting all day sits right now so I will re-upload when I get the chance. Sorry about that. Audio still works!

You are such a great hunter! Spent 20 years doing hunting videos so I know how much work it is to make your shows as good as they are.Thank you for not having twangy music.Hunters like to hear all the natural sounds.Crows,bluejays,wind.Even tractors or highways in the distance better than loud music.Paul Crowley Ten Point Video

Good job Kaitlyn! I think that because you hunt public land on a budget out of a car, it's absolutely real that you use budget gear as well. I LOVE the reality of your videos. I think that is what attracts so many viewers. We could all follow big production videos where a monster is shot all the time but I don't know any friends with that kind of luck. I LOVE reality, emotional highs and lows and crossing my fingers for you!!! Mad respect for your hard work, homework, planning and the tears I shed when it pays off for you. Your formula works! You've taught me a lot I didn't know. You Rock Kaitlyn!

I think you do great job on self filming and congrats on swoops. Great deer and well deserved. Keep the great videos coming kiddo and good luck rest of the season

I am so happy that you got Swoops! I am always excited about your videos because you keep it real. Your enthusiasm for hunting is so raw and pure. What a refreshing take on things.

Your focus issues with that lens are due to the aperture (F stop). Shoot with a higher ISO and close down to F4 or F5.6 or something and you'll have a lot easier time hitting focus. Good luck!

Your videos are a huge step up from amateur but still relatable. I don't want to watch over produced/edited content. I prefer to watch what I experience. Thanks!

I love how you smoke big deer and do t have to flaunt yourself like some of the women who hunt on RU-vid! Your a bad ass. I honestly am 49 and I learn stuff from you constantly

Awesome! This is one of the videos I've been waiting for! Thank You! I think you do such a great job and I've been wanting to video some of hunts so this was so helpful! Thank You Kaitlyn!

If I had filmed all my hunts over the years ; it would defiantly be a comedy !

Had the Sony A100 for several years and loved it. Thanks for all the info.

You are the best out there in my Opinion

I see your roll of paper in the backround. That is very handy for paper tuning a bow.

Good job as always kaitlyn!!!!

Love your videos. I think I would have deleted this since the video is messed up on a video about video equip. LOL. But you're light years ahead of me. I'd like to see what you use for your camera support system and how you attach it to the tree. Lights out swoops!

Can't wait to get a camera. Wanted a GoPro but now I see the rigs you're using. 🤔

The worlds a better place because you are in it. Love your videos keep on keeping on kiddo

I think you film very well all the time 🙂 Nice setup, definitely good tips for self filming. What kind of chronograph do you have on the background, do you like it?

About time you came back on wanting to see your deer.

Your doing a great job. Finally here in Pa, bigger bucks starting to move. Tagged out Monday night,which went into Tuesday morning @ 2am,but all worked out.3year old 7 pt. Ready for your next venture out and video. Get papa son down and vedio him.

Best of luck to you the rest of the deer season. I know you will do fine if not great. Congratulations on your buck, swoops.

the newer sonys are coming out with rotating screens 🙌 bout time I had to get one

Thanks be to God this didn't happen when Swoops swooped in. 🙏

Thanks 4 sharing!🙏👍

the classroom lessons cool but get us in the woods show a set up if you can and why you have the set up and where the Sun is.. how you know its centered .. you can do it. thank you . I see you got the muscle tone climbing up and down those trees. your getting better and better.. have fun

Hey Katlyn your deer meat is gamey because you are shooting old rutty buck's!!! Does and young deer are better eating. Think about it, which cattle do they typically butcher, the old herd bull or yearlings? Also if you use a method called water ageing the meat will have a much better flavor. Here is what you do. Get a big ice chest and quarter the deer. Rinse well and place meat in the ice chest, cover with water and ice. I freez gallon jugs and 2 liter bottles so I don't have to buy ice. When the water looks more like blood than water, change it. I soak a doe for a week and an old buck for 2 week's. I have found that the wild taste is in the blood So the more you soak out the milder it will taste. I be live they use this method often in Alabama and Mississippi. After the soaking you can cut it up and process as usual. Also I do a killer deer ham by taking the whole hind quarter after the water ageing and brine it in salt water with 2 cups brown sugar and 1/4 cup pickling spices. The salt is 1 and 1/2 tablespoon per pound of meat. Mix into a gallon of water till the salt and brown singer dissolve. Place meat in container that you can submerge it into. Pour the gallon over the meat and add water as needed to cover the meat. You may have to way the meat down to keep it submerged. Soak in brine 1 day for each pound of meat. I turn the meat every couple of days to make sure of a good soak. I also inject some of the brine into the meat in a dozen places or so. After brining I smoke the ham on wild cherry wood. You can use most any fruit or nut wood except walnut. It has bad chemicals in it. I hope you try this, I'm confident it will make you love deer meat!!!

great job thank you for all you do !!

It paused on me but I never get tired of your hunts keepem coming

Is it just me or does the video freeze at about the 10:30 mark??? Anyway, congrats again on Swoops! Hope your other hunts go as well. 👍 As always, BIG HUGS! ❤

Hey Kaitlyn! I missed out on the Q&A, wondering if you could give me some suggestions or recommendations on hunting apparel for women. I have tried so many things, from womens to mens, different sizes etc. From base layers to outer layers. I’m from Indiana, if that helps. Also curious about having easy access to use the bathroom. Love to hear what you have to say, I hope to hear from you soon!

I really want to film my hunts few years ago and start a RU-vid channel next year

I know this isn't the video you were cooking on but that one was in 2018 and I didn't think you would read them that far back.

Love watching you you are an awesome young woman so proud of you keep up the awesome job you're making us women proud of you God bless you good luck

No the video did freeze after about 10 minutes I hate to add but it would be interesting maybe a follow up video of accessories like your camera arm the fluid head and maybe even your set up as far as where you put your camera arm based upon if your saddle hunting or if you’re in a hang on stand keep yours on the right left and how you set up your cameras

😇❤️ cool equipment I have some catching up too do in that direction since cleaning up a few annoying problems all over so many Universes have tied up so much of my time. So if you are not too busy I could use your help.❤️

Informative video, now when people ask you the same questions tell them to go watch the video again🤣🤣

By the way I realy like your videos and the ones you do with Chris.

What do you do for battery life in cold weather or long filming situations? Battery pack? Portable batteries? My cameras always die in cold weather

Sorry if someone has already asked this, which camera arm do you use?

Awesome I need one for hunting....

OH ! Thought it was on my end. Huh , so I listened as your face stuck in ; well I'll just say not the way you would have hoped. LOL

Have you ever tried hunting wisconsin

I have the same camera! Awesome camera!

I hope I didn't miss it, but what did you actually use to record this video?

Your video's look professional to me.

You’re a such great hunting kaityn

What camera arm do you use in the tree?

Can’t wait!!!! ❤

Don’t know why video freeze but I can hear your voice

Filming is just too much of a hassle for me I have enough just hunting , but highest Kudos .
