Why I Am Leaving ElkShape. 

Hey I know it’s kind of a shift in gears.. I’m excited to dive into this RU-vid journey and appreciate ya’ll coming along 🙏🤙

I'm here for it, man. You were a crucial part of the personality balance on the ElkShape content, I'll leave it at that. Your video work is stellar and I enjoy watching your archery progress. Excited to see what you do with your channel. Way to go Tim. Keep it up.👏

I wish you nothing but the best moving forward, Tim. Don't miss out on the journey to find your destination.

I think this is a great move. Your personality relates more to everyone I think. You’re more real and less show and ego. Subscribed!

With this new channel, I personally wasn’t a huge fan of the elkshape channel. I don’t know Dan personally but from what I saw he comes off as a short guy with small man syndrome and I can see partnership with someone like Him to be difficult, I appreciate you leaving the channel as graceful as you are, only thing I wanna see more of us hunting and more emphasis on the hunt rather then click bait and reviews like on elkshape

I’m excited about the future. This isn’t a shot at Dan at all but he’s a “big” personality. There often doesn’t appear to be room for anyone else when he’s in front of the camera. I think you will both excel going separate ways. Your personality and content are more my style and I’m here to support your growth!

Man what a loss for ElkShape. You were certainly needed to keep everything in equilibrium over there. Good luck man 💪🏽

You know what they say about friends, family and money. Good on y’all addressing it early instead of later. Here from the beginning Tim, good luck.

I'm not surprised this happened. No hate, but one of the reasons I was starting NOT to like ElkShape is because Dan seems so serious and always has to be "in charge" and everyone else (including Tim) is expected to follow along. Seems like sometimes tinkering (and other things) were forced on the whole group because it's what Dan wants and likes. For me, Tim, you brought balance to that channel, and I probably won't be watching now that you won't be a part of it anymore. Best of luck to you on your new adventure Tim! Your video editing is top notch! Also, what up fellow Michigander!

The ONLY constant in the entire universe is “ change”. Good Luck Tim! I’m with you. 👍👍

Would have never guessed you were 50/50. Always seemed like the Dan Staton and friends show. Best of luck to you and your journey.

To quote the author of wisdom... "Pride comes before destruction and a lofty spirit before the fall. It is better to be counted amongst the lowly than to count the spoils amongst the proud." Tim, you epitomize humility. I've watched Elkshape videos for a few years. I enjoyed the content, and you brought some much needed balance to that channel. I'm going to subscribe following this comment. You've got the right attitude and I can't wait to see where this journey takes you. God bless.

Sounds like this channel is going to be full of good stuff. I'm looking forward to it. Highlighting your story boards, directing and producing your own content will always be the most rewarding videos for 2K subscribers or 200K+.

This is what being an adult is all about. You both walk your own path and much respect to the both of you for being able to realize that. excited for both channels.

You truly brought the balance to that Elk Shape channel. Good Luck going forward.

I’ve been watching elk shape since 2015 and I can say you’ve definitely made that Chanel what it is today! Congratulations to you Tim and best of luck to you in this new journey of yours👍🏼

Man I loved ur content and personality on elkshape. Excited to see ur channel grow

Good luck Tim! The sky is the limit. In the end, you've gotta do what's in your heart.

Good luck and best wishes for your future endeavours

Hey Tim, wishing you all the luck in the world buddy! You and Dan are both very humble which already has you at the top for me. 👌

Good luck on your journey. Will be fun starting with you here, but will definitely miss the chemistry you had with Dan and Jake. I would love to see some more behind the scenes of how you approach editing (tools, software, etc)

Good luck with your channel Tim! I'm looking forward to your content and will miss you at ElkShape Camp.

Glad I found you and MFJJ….Really like the PodCast and collaboration videos! 👊🏻🏹

SUBSCRIBED. Elk Shape has done so much for me getting into Bow hunting but I also recognize how much YOU put into making Elk Shape what it was and I'll gladdily follow you to whatever project is next. Cheers from a fellow PNW archery enthusiast.

LOVE IT! Will surely miss the interaction between you guys, but hey, get after your dreams Tim! I'm with you all the way!

I know your Chanel is going to do great keep doing great stuff will always support you!!

Hey Tim, Great choice to continue on your ace! I only watched Elk Shape because of you! Good luck Keep it up!

Best of luck to you. Never really thought elkshape was for you. I know when you came in you changed the quality of videos tremendously you have talent! Go shine Tim

Hey Tim, big fan of your content. Fantastic camera work, great storytelling. Mad respect for the step you just took in your career. One day at a time, keep hammering it out.

Awesome Tim. Keep on trucking. Love from Ireland.

I love the sound of “fun, creative stories” coming soon! 🤜🏻👀

Loved your videos on Elkshape, I’ll definitely look forward to your videos here!

Always do what makes you happy Tim, GET IT!!!! and don’t let anything stop you.

Add me to your list. Been shooting. Bows for about 64 years now. Still love it. Just remember a slow bull’s-eye always beats a fast miss. Looking forward to your content

I’m really looking forward to seeing what you produce! I dig the way you portray a narrow focus of a broad spectrum of things, super fun!

A buddy and I were just talking about how we were really enjoying elk shape, specifically your contribution. I’m sure this was a difficult and scary decision. With that said, your gut never lies. Prayers up brother! 👊

The mystical flight of the arrow is a beautiful thing. 🏹 An just like that arrow you have your own arc to follow. I look forward to seeing what you create, even a flight of a golf ⛳️ ball and arrow side by side comparison.

It would super cool if you would do a breakdown of the gear you use to make videos, cameras, editing software, lighting, ect. Good luck and godspeed!

Good luck with ya moving forward.

Tim I'll follow your channel, the best of luck 👍🏼 can't wait to see what content you have in the future.

Good for you, Tim! Hit me up if you ever want to shoot with another local Dan in Spokane. Looking forward to seeing the direction this channel takes!

Sorry to hear. Elkshape will not be the same

Wish you luck Tim, I’ll be with you for the ride brother. 👊

Will glad to see you blaze your own path.

Heck yeah brother. You got my subscription. Excited to see your content.

I know these decisions are never easy. But you guys nailed with elkshape and good friends are forever and always will uplift each other. You have a subscriber here for life. Thank you for all the amazing content you have given us, and I look forward to this new channel and new path. 😎🤘🏼 never stop the progression!

Wow hate to see you go from that channel the dynamic you’ll shared was awesome but you know what’s in your best interest bud you’re gonna do great can’t wait to see what you bring forth.

Excited for you man. Because of You, Dan, and MFJJ I just bought my first brand new bow, first Mathews at SVA. I watched a ton of videos before going in.

Subscribed!!! You have a very awesome attitude and a very calm demeanor. I'm sure I will enjoy your content

Enjoyed watching you string your bow. Thought to myself;”I like this guy.” Glad you broke off…humble beginnings end well with success.

I'm here for u Tim!

Congrats on the moving ahead into the new! I just did the same and I’m so glad I did. It’s a little scary of the unknown but you’ll never know if you made the right decision til you just do it!

Good luck with your new path, it has been obvious your hard work with Elk Shape help make the channel successful. The thinking and content "outside the box" was some of the best I have seen, I'm confident you will do well!

Hey wish you the best ! I’ll be tuning in and following you !

Dont even worry, just do what you love the way you want to do it and you will get to 100k fast enough! I have enjoyed elkshape and now i will enjoy another channel as well. Win/win in the long run for everyone involved hopefully!

good luck bro! i'll be here watching. would love to see some content in the yoop

That all sucks what happened, keep the videos coming.

Atta boy, Tim. Way to follow your ❤️ bud.

Looking forward to your channel! Respect the hard decision and being respectful to elkshape.

Good for you Tim!! Excited to see what you can come up with!

Hey Tim, I wish you all the best. I watched elkshape for you. Since I can relate to you the most. Good luck

Congrats on starting your channel. Here’s an idea for an arrow flight video: long range broadhead flight with a large vs small helical and or offset

Keep it up broski! We are behind you, support you, keep it going bro! So happy you’re doing what’s good for YOU! That’s what matters!

I support you! Enjoy your casual talk and product reviews.

Would love to see more info on your recording techniques! Quality has always been very good! Looking forward to what is next to come!

"The words beginning and end have the same meaning." I'm here for this channel man! You got this!! Looking forward to seeing your own personal direction.

Tim, i look forward to watching your future content; good luck my friend.... Your video skills are outstanding.... keep it up close and in focus so we can see what the heck you are talking about. I'd enjoy hearing you continually talk about what you've learned, mistakes you've made, and what you are doing to try and become a better archer; what you think has helped and what didn't seem (for you) to make a difference.... I like your product reviews and easy-going style; maintain strong ethics, be real, stay honest, and have fun.... I recommend you keep content and jokes suited for all age groups and really target those people that aren't experts, trying to figure it out. teach us from your trials and errors so we can learn from you and with you. Tuning, shooting in the wind, frustrations, ways to practice making the most with the time available. etc. etc. From the time you first picked up your bow to now.... relive that journey and target those who are going down that same path, i think they are the ones most eager to learn and will best relate with your story because they are experiencing it at a slower pace. Sometimes hearing the experts talk leaves out key elements us rookies need, or the video didn't show clearly the point they made so we were left confused on what just happened.... the why you tried it, the why you liked it, the why you stopped and did something different. For example, I've seen you change grips, I missed why, what were you trying to improve and for you did it make a difference. I like your "always be tinkering", but please go into more detail about what you learned from that, and did it solve any struggles you were having. I'd like to see content for example that focuses on a single problem you are having... to see and hear you say for example you have problems torquing the bow and shooting broadheads left/right, then show us a theory you have and a change you make and then show if (for you) it helped. keep going down the rabbit hole until you solve if (for you).... recap by saying in the end i changed my shooting style/equipment to do abc and found it helped.. for us watching with a similar problem we now have a list of items to try with examples of how to do each one to enable us to figure out which (for us) helpled. A video journal of what you were doing so we could repeat it or understand it at our end may help us solve a similar problem. etc. etc. Another example is, by pure accident i came across one of your videos that said broadhead tuning with a high/low impact problem (can't recall the details) was usually caused by cam timing and mfjj spoke about this briefly, but i don't recall ever hearing that before and an entire episode showing the changes and the results of how a broadhead flies to fix this would have been ideal when i was chasing my tail at that time. Again, I look forward to watching you for years to come. Sorry for the babbling :).

This is great now we have 2 great channels to watch Dan is allways encouraging PPL to be content creators why would he not want the same for you... Enjoy the ride

I always loved seeing you in the El shape vids. Eventually you became the main reason I watched. I feel like I resonated w/ you way more than any other person there. Can’t wait for this content 🤟🏽

good for you man! you’ll do fine. 💪

Were about to see Elkshape's channel quality drop

Congrats on making a jump, that's a really hard choice but at the end of the day it's about your end game goals, you do you Tim, I wish the best in your journey as you find your sweet spot.

Good luck and keep up the good job

Good luck Tim, look forward to what you start putting out.

I subbed. I am along for the ride. Let's go tim.

Tim I've see some of your older stuff but mostly with Dan and elkshap. Imhappy that you have made a change to do what you like. Will be watching how you progress and will grow with you. You have great videos. Congrats duane

Awesome stuff Timmy hope all goes well I’m sure it will !! Nice to see you going all in yourself and I’m definitely going to come along for the ride . 🏹🏹👍

Best of luck to you Tim! Hope to see you and Dan still working together!

Would love to see a day in the life of Tim… golfing etc…..

100k won’t be an Issue as long as you keep doing your thing!

Happy for you doing your own thing. Looking forward to seeing some good videos.

Non body building, cheese steak eating, elk killer joining ya!! Show em what’s up man!!!

Walk your road! Head high looking forward. The Elk Shape team and videos really were some that cemented me to go pick up a bow last year @ 52 years old. I'll keep watching both channels and keep on learning as I pick up new things. Challenge can your drone follow an arrow? Got to be a bomb shot nothing under 75 yards

To a new chapter and more adventures Tim. Congratulations 🎊🎉🎈

Always enjoyed your contribution to Elk Shape, your passion, sincerity and insightful dialogue will ensure your success. Looking forward to your future content. Good luck Tim.

Best of luck Tim, loved it when you came on with Dan and I will follow you on this. Stepping out for yourself isn’t always easy and you should be proud of it. Let’s go!
