I was just gonna ask the same thing! I dig his content.

Been killing it with Spartan Forge!

Dude how is getting so close on the ground with a buck like that? And don’t tell me it’s the scentloc clothes. LoL

@@scorchedearth1894 it’s staying still and staying down wind of their travel corridor

@@JeremyReger I understand that but he’s on the ground. He can practically reach out and grab the damn thing. I’ve gotten close but not quite that close

Dustin this is billy what’s up bro

@@bofa1330 Billy who?

Lots of the locals in that area like to claim “rights” Had one tell me that I should check in down the road, lol. Dude waited for me to come out one afternoon… Across the road, had a guy follow me in with his bird dog and a shotgun one evening, shooting… Some people just don’t play nice

Hey buckslayer, whats the deal with the message about receiving your parcel? I got something similar this morning, about chosen for a giveaway... figure its just a crap hack, but wanted your input! Thanks!

@Josh Poland yes they are scams. Got one on a comment on gritty the other day and brian confirmed it wasnt from him

Lol

Camo is like fishing lures. They only have to catch the fisherman. My standing joke is that I bought the perfect camo once. I put it in the closet and was never able to find it again.

May have a scammer commenting on your pages my friend. Hope you were able to get after some turkeys this season. Happy Easter to you and your family!

Yes. Sometimes they've heavily paw away the fresh leaves, but many deer just hit the licking branch. Some just go downwind to scent check the scrape from a distance too

I have used a number of things. I have used the limb legs from mathews. I've used a normal hys strap or bow hook if I've got a tree or sapling in front of me. If on a stool, I often will just lay the bow on my lap. Ideally, it can be positioned in front of your face to where you can raise your hand up, and draw back with as minimal movement or your body and the bow as possible, so holding the bow vertical does tend to make more sense.

Yea it's a good option to try. Different people will have different preferences once they try and compare with pins. For hunting, I haven't had any issues and have made nothing but great shots on deer. All have been under 30 yards though. At the longer ranges, I still prefer to range and use the tick marks. And from that perspective pins would be better and less clutter. Garmin I've been pretty fond of as well and have strictly been more precise with. But its also not legal in all the states I hunt and has the possibility of more issues and is heavy.

Oct 31 was one of the better days I believe. Some of that footage was across multiple sits in the same tree. I had a camera in thar area and it's good sort of throughout that time period but sporadic in terms of individual bucks. I find a lot of those scrape areas just by finding a licking branch in a good area even if the ground isn't pawed up and they can be really good.

I have sometimes used the Mathews Engage limb legs, but they don't work well on uneven ground. I've also rested the bow on my lap and used a small strap on bow hook on small saplings or trees that I'm using as front cover.

This is the first year I've even sort of attempted any kind of scent control. So I've been keeping detailed notes on deer reactions and what I had done that day. For instance, was I wearing scentlok dropdown facemask, non-air permeable and/or scentlok outer layers? Rubber boots? Did I wipe down my camera gear, bow, and sticks with a scent free wipe? Did I rinse my mouth and gargle with closys? Was I wearing scentlok for any vegetation I brushed up against or touched on the access? And then I also took notes like when Sam and I were sitting together, since she did nothing except for the rubber boots. And I have the years' worth of prior experiences to compare against too. So far of well over a dozen individually separate deer that have walked on or over my scent trail, I've observed zero reaction. When they get downwind of me in a tree or on the ground, they still usually react. If they're inside of 15 yards, they usually trot back to where they cake from. If they're further, I've seen them flick their tail and keep walking and feeding. In all of the cases where I've gotten busted, there's usually at least one thing where I can say "well I could have done this too..." so I've yet to confirm if going full bore all-in would give me enough confidence to set up where I know a deer will be downwind before I'll get a shot opportunity.
