Awesome video and buck. Can’t believe he stayed so composed after shooting that caliber of buck with traditional gear.

Nice! Shooting medium format film to preserve the memory of a traditional hunt…I love it

One of the best traditional archery hunts I've seen. Thanks for sharing!

Great buck and footage, definitely KANSAS, the places I hunt look a lot like where you are! Thanks for the ride! "The wife's gonna be happy but I'm still gonna hunt!" Thata boy!

Loved it no loud music no shaking of the camera good job, got a beautiful family

This is epic. Next level. What a great way to portray traditional bow hunting.

Great hunt and story glad to see the whole family involved very special. You are indeed lucky to have a nice place to hunt and great deer like that. Blessed!

New subscriber. You might want to start tying off to tree while setting stands. At beginning of video you were tightening ratchet strap while standing on your top stick. In 2019 I was doing the same thing and the stick strap broke and I fell 19’. 2 surgeries on left foot and 3 surgeries on right shoulder. I am lucky I am able to walk. Please be safe fellas. Its always when you don’t expect it when accidents happen. Great buck and awesome video

Man you was as cool as the other side of the pillow after shooting that buck, with a traditional stick and string! Nice buck, congratulations!

Outstanding! 🏹🦌🏹🦌🏹🦌🏹🦌

Soooo refreshing to watch a bow hunter make a killing hit without starting to CRY, or arm pump out of control with a few whispered obscenities & then or call up fellow hunters as ‘DUDE’ !! Perhaps a reflection of their age but don’t get me wrong, I respect their dedication to our sport, and verrry skillful hunters, etc etc but get it all together guys AFTER a killing hit as this bow hunter has !! We should ALL take a page out of his book! Well done & love your interaction with your young sons & theirs to you who no doubt will grow up to be a mature, responsible hunter & Dad like you !!!!

Awesome buck and even better footage! Great job self taping that hunt. So tough to do that and do it well.

wonderful hunt, wonderful reward of a great buck, lots of good organic meat for the family

Awesome video, thanks for sharing! I hunted with trad equipment for 9 years and all I wanted to do was put a shot on a deer like you did on the buck. Didn't happen very often so I'm back to compounds. Congrats on an awesome shot and buck!!!

I hunt with a compound but I'm very interested in getting into traditional maybe getting one and practice for a year or two before taking it into the field been hunting with a compound for 20 years now ready for the challenge and a change

That was so awesome. Always wanted to get any deer with the recurve. What an accomplishment!

Amazing film work!! Also great buck, very unique man. Congrats!!

Hunted with Recurve Bow for years…( I have 5 Recurve Bows) Fun to practice with and fun to hunt with…Practice …Practice…Practice…

Congratulations buddy what a buck and what a hunt awesome job man

Solid proof that Proverbs 17:6 should never be forgotten. "...FATHERS ARE THE PRIDE OF THEIR SONS" #GoodJobDaddy #AwesomeX100

Nicely done boys!

Awesome!!!! Congrats 👊

Great shot on a great buck!

Great video! Congrats!

Hey Mel Johnson!!!!!!!! That was super cool!!!!!!!!

Beautiful hunt and great buck!!

Great video and great hunt!!!

Excellent

Damn, Kansas again is awesome. I'd make it my first pick. Shockers

I noticed you took pictures in the morning. My experience generally hunting in hot, humid climates we have to clean the animal right away. I am guessing the temperature was cold enough that you gutted the animal and left the everything else intact for next day pics? I know some do that dry aging meat (leave hide on and hang)

Wow. Great video

Great hunt, great buck - congrats!! What Camo were you wearing?

What’s your set up? What brand etc?

Can I ask you how many lbs your bow is strung to?

What was the deer eating at 5:40

I dont know about all that taking the buck back out to get pictures the next day thing....you don't like to skin them immediately?

nice clicker! lol

that wasn’t a recurve, he shot that deer with a crossbow. you can hear the safety click off before he shoots. sounded like a crossbow too. great deer but not truthful
