I think you will eventually develop a good relationship with 3.0 and nothing is more important than confidence; so no reason to not mix in the OB until then.
I cant wait for Crossbow here in NY…..I dropped a doe last saturday with my bow…from the ground…behind a ghost blind. But Im itching to breakout my Crossbow.
Hi Rich 😊 Rev Lary here. Congratulations to you both on your great successes with all the Bungee's ! 😂 I two have broken a two year slump with my new Oracle X on my faithful 7 year 10 point Shadow NXT. I was in my tree stand and and a real nice 5 pt Buck came with in 10 yards. Now i know i could have used any scope, but i really feel the Oracle X was my good luck charm 😅 and working perfectly as i said "your mine" and fired.. i didn't record the shot but the camer across from me shows the shot instantly after the Shawaker exit. Small in -huge Out. Im sold 😂 within 25 feet he bleed out, only ran 30 yards. You have great sucess and keep it up. All hail Bungie 😂
Great video. Thank you for having wonderful content. My 7 year old daughter real likes your videos and we watch them together. She will learn to hunt with my crossbow.
Boy that buck was definitely swacked by the Swacker. When you whacked ‘im he didn’t know what the heck swacked ‘im. 🤣 You had a really good day, these are days you’ll always remember and cherish with your daughter.
It`s hard to let go of the tried and true to something that you haven`t built the confidence in. The Doe needed to be taken out injured nice Buck also enjoyed it Rich and Miss G.
If you pour the corn out in long lines leading directly away from your stand the deer tend to line up like cows at a feed trough. This gives you a lot of broadside shots vs a pile of corn where the deer can come up at any angle to eat. You'll notice they don't want to step all over what they're eating.
Nice. Well, I got busted twice by the same buck so far this year. I was behind a ghost blind one the first hunt and was packing up. Didn’t hear him come in behind me. He heard me and then saw my head move around the bush behind me to see if anything was there before I got up to head home. Second hunt I was in a tree opposite end of the field and I knew I heard something but dismissed it as the chipmunks that had been playing all afternoon. When I lowered my bag, and it was about 6ft off the ground. He bolted. I haven’t seen him since.
Rich, great Deer!!! I’ve never missed a video and I’m always looking for the next one. You are a good hunter rich the fact that you can wait that long for a shot is a testament to your patience and it paid off big time. Can’t wait to watch the next video. Good luck in your 45 days of awesomeness. I am in New York, so I got a wait until like 5 November for my 14 days of awesomeness
Next time use a log and lay it pointing to your stand. That deer will come in and they want to face the log when eating. They won’t straddle it. Trust me they will be broadside for you next time.🤘🦌 congratulations Rich
I got my first crossbow this year a Barnet xp 380 , I absolutely would love your advice brother , your an absolutely amazing person , I wish you well man thank you so much for the true time and the passion , we need many more men like you , what a guy !
Dang Rich you and Gen are doin some SERIOUS FREEZER FILLIN! What a start to a season, God Bless you and yer's bud! Oh yea, caint wait to see those mounts Gen's gonna do!
Glad to see you and your old bow connect...I when I hunt with my bows both Excaliburs I'm relaxed too if presented a shot their mine....love to see that mule kick too....fun watching the lighted nocks
Awesome video as always. Congratulations on both deer. I own a Matrix 380 and wouldn’t trade it for near anything. Always kept the string off the bumpers and never had an issue. Started using Shwacker 150’s a few years ago. Love ‘em. Only time I had an issue with the blade expanding was because a small pebble wedged in while shooting at a bag to see how the hole developed . Now I always make sure the blades can pivot without busting the band before loading. A 2 second check that produces a nice 3” hole. Love the blood trail, if they make it out of sight.
PS Rich, we can't bait anymore in Michigan but one of the first things that I learned was to prop up a couple of branches to prevent deer from accessing the bait from behind or in front, giving you a broadside shot.
