THE FIRST WEEK OF DEER CAMP - UPPER MICHIGAN 

TO PURCHASE FUN DEER CAMP STUFF - amzn.to/3x7oVe7

I’m 5 mins into the video and I already want to be at deer camp with this group!

Awesome to capture your buck harvest on camera. Spotted Cow (or 2) was well earned

There's something really special about a U.P. deer camp. I was fortunate to be invited to one for 20 years. Great times with great people.

I don't think I've ever witnessed somebody bathe that much at camp, LOL! Congrats on your buck! We start tomorrow, in PA. Really enjoy all of your videos!

Little piece of heaven you got there Dave. Ultimate peace.....

I was born and raised a yooper now living away from Michigan. I guess I’m called a transplanted yooper. I miss deer hunting in the UP, I have many good family memories of hunting as a kid. Nice to see family/friend memories being made. 4 years to go before I retire, can’t wait to get back hunting in the U.P. Great video!!!

Once again nice to see you guy's at camp for the first week of deer season. Congratulations Gary and David for your successful hunts. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us. Especially us hunters that after 49 consecutive deer seasons in the UP no longer have a place to call home any more. Congrats and looking forward to seeing more adventures from the 3Point. 🦌🦌

My wife walked through the Living Room and asked who that guy was taking a shower. I said, “that’s Dave Knetter!” like she was supposed to know or something. She stared at me for a few seconds and continued on her way. To quote Thin Lizzy - if that chick don’t wanna know, forget her!

Nice buck and nice to see three generations and friends at the camp. Reminds me of when I was a kid going to deer camp with my uncles and cousins. At night after the evening hunt friends would often show up for a beer or two and cards. I miss those days for sure but nice to see families still carrying on with the Michigan deer camp tradition.

Only differences between our camp in Rapid River, MI and yours is you bathe way more! And we have a strict no phone’s policy. We keep them in a lock box and we get three times a day to check them a day. Other than that it’s much of the same! Beautiful camp you got there.

The "he him buck" pin had me dieing all the way from NY. The liberals are so great to laugh at.

Thanks for sharing your deer camp with us Dave, Congratulation on an awesome buck to you and Gary as well. Looking forward to more of your adventures.

liked your video, brought back many memories, my dad started going to the up a few years before the bridge got built and used to have to take the ferry, we went about 15 miles from rapid river, either in a tent, camper, motor home, and usua;;y had a squad tent for cooking and hanging out, lost my dad back in 2003 and have only been back to the up once to hunt since then,, he always got things together and organized everything and was the camp cook. thanks again for sparking the memories

You brought back lots of memories of my pa deer camp and of the friends and family i😅 shared it with. Sold it two years ago but the memories of times spent there will never be forgotten. Your comments at the end not the video were right on the money. Bob, from long island NY. Semper Fi

Congratulations! Thanks for always sharing your hunting adventures with us.

So many parallels between your camp and the camp I hunted at in far northern Wisconsin for the first time this year. 4 guys at the camp and a traditional wood fired sauna to boot. Very nice harvest of the 8 pointer and a bonus to have filmed it as well. The old heavy horned swamp buck I shot the third day of season at noon snuck in from the left at 75 yards but only offered a quartering towards my stand shot. Placed a 30-06 bullet through the shoulder and he dropped like a ton of bricks and never moved. The camp attendees were similiar aged as yours except nobody was under 58. I guess years back it was common for the camp crew to head into town until the wee hours of night but that never happened this year as bedtime at 9:30 was the norm. Many blessings and a safe hunt is a good hunt. God Bless from Hodag Land.

My wife laughed when I showed this video to her. Thank you Dave, you do great there!

Smoked that buck right in its tracks👍 sweet! Good times, good friends.

Congratulations on your nice buck. He Him Buck pin a great one.

Really great to see red and black plaid again.

Thanks for posting a vid with camp life depicted. I could watch deer camp vids for hours! The best of times!

Always a pleasure. God's blessing you. Great camp, great buck great footage. Happy Holidays

I miss Uncle Gary’s cudighi. Always good eating at deer camp. I have been hunting in Wisconsin for the last 8+years. Great hunting but miss going to deer camp in the UP. I’ve been enjoying your channel to remind myself of home. Great stuff

I also love the lamp

Congratulations! Beautiful yooper buck!

Thanks again for a trip to a true U P deer camp and congrats on that nice buck! It was fun to see Gary at camp. He used to live close to me and we went to GHS back in the 60's.

Here in Wisconsin at our Deer camp, We clear out under our venison pole, that way one person can load a deer by backing right under the deer,then let it down..save your back..just a idea..

Done right, all the day's of prep work thru the summer, and you can't think of anything that STILL needs to be done, the "day before season" is about as special as opening day. Our cabin south of Baraga County becomes heaven. We gear-up two days before, and spend this day doing NOTHING but eat, fellowship, and relax taking everything in. You feel so,... I guess the word is "settled"? Hard to explain, but I long for this day EVERY YEAR!

Wonderful video!!! Congratulations on a great hunt!!! And my thanks for sharing your experience!!! 😀👍👍

Women don't understand the dynamics of their men going to deer camp but it's what helps get us thru another year. Small pay but it goes a long way.

Oh my all that tracking snow!! I personally don't waste an opportunity with fresh snow sitting all day. Nope, drive around find a track, take it boys. Love your content. Enjoying your cozy camp life. Thanks for sharing.

HE - HIM - MALE - BUCK ...is absolutely perfect gotta love that ...congrats on the 8 pointer !

I take my hat off to u guys who hunt the u.p. an northern WI with all the wolves an legal baiting it has gotten much harder then 20-30 yrs ago I hunt southern Wisconsin green an Lafayette counties for last 32 years an according to my father who is 76 years young I have been spoiled by good private farmland all my life he still remembers hunting all season an happy to see 1 deer. You guys have a great camp an tradition like many others including myself with our 7 man camp. Keep making those memories cause in the end they are all we have. Great video

Not being annoyed by the camera and seeing the guys in their natural state makes for a great video👍 nothing like deer camp

Great video and congrats to both of you guys on nice bucks. Love all that snow!! Rifle season is so short!! There is nothing like deer camp!! Thank you for sharing!! Juddie - J & J TOA

Greetings from North Central Wisconsin 👍

I've spent a little time in the woods in my sixty plus years. Some of those stays were in not so nice accommodations and some that were fairly nice. That's comparing those to the not so nice. Now a deer camp with a sauna, couch and a table with that unforgettable lamp. Now that's five star living there! I would make a trip out to the woods and stay there for weeks before going on a cruise in a heartbeat. Nice setup you've got there. Thanks for the hard work behind this video for all of us to enjoy. Y'all stay safe!

very nicevideo of family and friends. very luck guys

Glad your all enjoying camp again. I have 3 grown sons that are still enjoying camp with me and I treasure every time we are there. Good luck guys, also really enjoy your butchering videos!

Congrats on your buck, and yes every year we seem to have the night time deer stand visitor. I guess we smell bad, lol might hit Ronney up for some evening musk next year!. Great video on a real UP deer camp and all the fun and traditions we all hope are son's and daughters carry on. Nostrovia!

Love the leg lamp Mr. Bundy

Love watching all these deer camp videos. Cant wait to go to camp in Pa. in 10 days for archery 2023 to kickoff!! Best of luck guys this year.

Camp life a total UP thing brought my grandson to the UP for the first time this year Yooper born and raised he is South Dakotin so different hunting sat day light to dark and had his first Sauna nothing better than life in the great nothing woods 👍👍

Nice buck. Thanks for another great video.

I really love the name of your channel! Even though I’m only 25% into this video. It reminds me of the great ole days where being in deer camp was the prize! Hope you get a deer too! I’m not saying hunting is not the focus, I’m saying friendship is the bullseye! Commonality is the cause, and taking the time to intentionally connect with your friends and family is the greatest subliminal connection we may ever have! 3 cheers for you and your co-hunters! I admire you for the effort you take to make this happen! I recently saw the video of you and your wife come up in the summer and do work to prepare for the upcoming season! I admire you for the extraordinary lengths that you go to to make this deer camp happen! One night, I hope to share a campfire with you! I have so many wonderful compliments to bestow on you for what you do. You are an extraordinary man! You are the harbinger/carrier of the old ways!

Congratulations on the harvest I enjoy the video each year

that was an awesome piece of entertainment....thanks...happy hunting.....THE RIXTER

Love, love, love your videos. This is one of my favorites ever.

Congratulations on your buck. Always a blast seeing someone get a deer, nic Camara work as well.

Congratulations for your Buck! I have been watching your adventure while listen to Negaunee Miners play West Catholic and it's halftime.

Nice shot!!!!!!!!!!!!Boy I sure miss deer camp, the good old days...

Looks like a great time I'd love to have a camp like that good luck fellow michiganders

My last hunting lic. In NJ is 1974. Been going up to crotch lake, ont can since 1973 and currently my friend rich owns an island cabin on crotch lake. Will be 78 this coming feb, got a couple of years in rich. I go up with him in Aug or Sept for 8 or 9 days. Yes it's about an 8 1/2 hour ride from NJ and of course the subject of how long we can still come up is talked about. I'm a bypass guy and 2 years ago got a new left knee. Rich looks like he may be facing knee replacement shorty along with back problems. He is talking about that time to sell the island may be coming up. So yes each year marks another year older and man they go bye too fast. Your mentioning that Dave just reminds me about where has the time gone. Hopefully we have a few years left. Fish salt water here in NJ on my boat and have a few friends help me run the boat for the day. Trailer it from home to the ramp. Ok well wishing you and your family happy and healthy holidays and thanks for sharing your time up at the camp. I gave a feeling no weight was lost at deer camp this year. Take care ..... Walt

Nice shot and a dandy buck! Congratulations from Pennsylvania. Our season is just kicking off tomorrow.

Nice buck Nudd. Congratulations

Nice camp. Congrats on your buck. There's nothing like deer hunting and camp with comrades, good luck to all next year.

There's nothing like deer camp in the northwoods. Nice buck and great footage of the shot!

Congratulations on your bucks

We always leave our rifles in the unused outhouse, so the rifles don’t condensate with water. But that’s just here in Minnesota. St.Paul,Minnesota.

Looks like a great time at Camp! I'm envious in a good way.

Congratulations Dave. Nice looking deer. I don’t know if that feeling ever goes away. I could hear it in you when you got that deer. Just the sheer excitement ,and raised heart rate it happens every time. I could feel it watching the video and I wasn’t even there lol. I can’t wait till I get my hunting camp set up right and do a little white tail and possibly bear hunting up there in the UP. On a sidenote, I did order a Barnett XP 385 crossbow package with the crank cocking device from Cabelas on their Black Friday deal it was $299.97. It just got here today so I’m gonna put it together and see if I can get it sighted in. Again congratulations.

Looks like a great time at deer camp. Congrats on the nice UP buck Dave.

Great video thanks for sharing. It's great to go to camp my family used to have a camp but all the original members have passed, I used to really enjoy going. Congrats on the Bucks!! Here in Pa. Our rifle deer season starts tomorrow.

I like that Type 99 Japanese rifle on the wall

Great tradition! Cool to see east coast camp life.

Excellent video! I truly miss deer hunting! My brothers and I and 1 Buddy would hunt all 9 days in MO. We did more drinking than hunting in the first years but it was FUN!

Dandy bucks! Congrats from our deer camp to yours 👍🏻

My hunts in jeopardy this year. Camp already set up, just my truck is dead. Atv and my gear all loaded up, I stripped out a spark plug hole. Hands are kinda numb these days, doubtful I'm pulling off a tap job myself. Would be first time on new 40, first private land hunt in 20 years, first ever hunt with my older half brother. Good luck this year fellas.

We can't bait deer here in Maine. Completely fair chase here. It tough, but the bucks are bucks. I'd love to hunt your area, experience your style someday. Good luck guys, i do really enjoy your videos. I was just sharing how different the laws are in my State. Again state of Maine.

I sure enjoy your videos, looks like a great time. Safe firearm handling is a number one priority and you guys really do an excellent job with that.

Thanks for sharing ! I was jacked when I seen them pop up ! Congrats on that. Ice buck

Dads story about knocking the door off the truck was the best

Great hunt nice dragging from the older fella thanks guys for the video

Nice buck and video!

That was a wonderful vedio good comedy and fellow ship

0:30 good to see you have spotted cow in the u p

Great video...thanks for taking us along.

I enjoyed the video. I'm from Alabama and I don't think I could take your cold weather without a heater in the box blind. 😄 The food looks delicious. 👍

Thanks for the video from South Georgia

THANKS 🎉SAUNA TAKES THE BONE CHILLING COLD AWAY 😂

North Carolina hunter here. I was fascinated with your deer camp with all the snow and the old buck pole. There are not many places like yours down south that can duplicate your conditions and that kind of off-the-grid camp. I'm sure someone will correct me, but they can't have the nice snow! Keep up the good work and congrats on your fine bucks taken! Heck, even the hot dogs looked good to me.

Nice video and nice buck. As a fellow michigander I love to go up hunting with my brother and my dad. Unfortunately this was the third year I didn't get to go due to medical issues that have hit pause on my life these past 3 hunt seasons . But lucky enough I ended my last time hunting on a good note and got a nice 8pt. Hopefully I will be able to go next year . I don't mind when I go if I don't get one I just enjoy the bonding time and just being able to sit out in nature in peace a quite and watch all the wildlife. When a nice buck walks out tho the adrenaline rush is amazing tho. So thanks for the video it made me feel like I was in the blind with my heart rate Goin up with excitement.

Love the lamb!

Camaros' Crawlers, free Fans Only, lots of beers and deers action. Sheesh, what more could you ask for in a channel!!? Had my best year ever fellas, got me 2 bucks on opening day, an 8 and a 10! Beauties!!

Congrats on both deer and on the Nice 8pt Buck, A spotted cow and a chaser would be in order. Great camp and set up.

Loved the video Dave! I hollared “yes”! When you shot your buck. You guys really have a nice camp. Too bad deer camps numbers seem to be declining at least they are in north central Wisconsin. Congrats on that dandy buck!

Good stuff

Nice buck!

Nice buck.

Awesome lamp

Congratulations on the buck! That's a great deer! You have a heck of a good thing going up there, I love watching the videos. It's my decompression from life down here. Always checking to see what you have up next. Keep em comin'

very nice buck congrats on getting him. looks like you had a decent amount of snow. we didn't have any it went all around us. yes we get bucks on camera that we never see, also get them during the day on the day before the opener not see them again.

Nice deer. Looks like a great time. Good for you!

Awesome video..this is what real hunting looks like!!!

I gotta say ,Yankees know how to throw down on a hunt!! Funnin around fellas!

Those young fellows should be listening to you experienced men. Notice they are looking at phones. Young guys should be soaking up All the experience you men have gained over the years. Congratulations on your successful hunt.

Another great videos other great video. Was hoping nick was going to walk in and say he got himself a monster. Congratulations on your wonderful buck. Hope to see another deer processing vidoe

Looks like you all had a great time at deer camp. Congrats on both bucks. My Grandpa had an Ashley stove in camp when I was a kid. It would roast you out if you got too carried away loading too much wood in it. Todd from da U.P.

Really good!! Love deer camp!!
