He Stole MY SHOTS! Traditional Bowhunting Hogs in Florida
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 янв 2023
- This week Fen and I are driving down the the Kissimmee Prairie in South Florida to meet up with our friends Scott Crippen of Lost Arrow Films, Flip Pallot, and Don Davis. We'll be traditional bowhunting hogs and deer from the ground in the south Florida scrub. I'm hunting with an osage selfbow, the same one I took on Alone Season 8, and Fen is hunting with a little sinew backed osage recurve bow. He's drawing about 30lbs at 26". His arrows are 700 spine Traditional Only carbon shafts, 50 grain insert and 150 grain Grizzly broadheads. This has got to be the craziest hunt I've ever seen! Spot and stalk wild hogs!
Don't forget to subscribe to the channel. We're uploading a new video each week that features one of the following topics: archery, bow hunting, bow building, survival skills, bushcraft, self reliance, primitive skills, primitive bows, hunting, camping, fishing, and a lot more!

Those are the moments your son will never forget. The hunt he got one up on dad. Keep being a great father, Clay. Thats worth more than anything!!
Well said!
I was laughing so hard! 🤣
Hope your son will evade this sick society and will not become some corporate drone, but instead a self reliant individual, like his father.
Yes some of us didn't have father's that were around it's a beautiful thing to watch
@dakotah rose Right on. These are the types of videos that continue to teach me even as an adult, on what type of father to be, since I didn't have an example in my life. Hopefully, my kids will be thankful one day for me, showing them all things I didn't experience.
Hey folks, thanks for watching! I know some of you will have questions about Fen's setup so here it is. He's shooting a sinew backed osage recurve pulling around 30lbs@26". The arrows are Traditional Only carbons from 3Rivers. Up front I've got a 50 grain insert and 150 grain Grizzly broadhead. The first hog went down within 30 yards, the second within 70 or so. The second shot broke a rib on entry and stopped in the opposite side of the chest cavity. The arrows were made by Andy over at AddictiveArchery.com
Also, huge thanks to Scott Crippen for inviting us down to this amazing place. Scott is trying to build his RUclips Channel with some amazing traditional bowhunting content so please take a minute to head over to Lost Arrow Films and give him a sub. I see some great content coming!
People don't realise how far a sharp 125g will penetrate out of a 25# kids bow, especially at 27 inches 🤷🙏🙏🙏😍
Hi Clay. 30 pounds is too little to kill a wild boar. Could it be that the issue is putting a lot of weight on the front of the arrow? Thank you very much for the video.
@ cliff brown
The bots are on every single channel. All the content creators are aware but they are powerless to stop them, frankly YT doesn’t even care about it.
@ Manuel González Zambrano
Weight forward adds in penetration not detracts. Rearward weight causes the shaft to bend in the middle slowing momentum, increasing breakage, & decreasing stability in flight. A 30# draw will easily take game, many if not most Native American bows were either light weight in draw or highly inefficient at their weight, more likely both. Yet they consistently killed large game with them.
@@krownedklown420klik9 it's always about shot placement and consistent practice is the key...
Laying in bed healing my broken leg, and this is the medicine. Honestly thankyou for curing my cabin fever for the day . As soon as my sons get home we will watching it again . Watching Finn grow into one of the guys is awesome .
I hope it doesn't keep you down for long!
He's turning into one hell of an outdoorsman. The fact that he was so quick to voice his concern over the shot placement (despite being decent) is very proving of his character. awesome job, and wonderful to see.
Many thanks
you have been blessed with a wonderful son, and you are killing it as a father! these moments are what makes life worth living, it is awesome that you are able to record them. as time goes by, these moments fade- having them on video preserves them forever.
He won’t know what it meant to go out with flip until much later in life but I know he will cherish this memory forever. A+ dad move
To have a dad like clay to be the one to teach you the ways of bow hunting is really a special gift. So cool to see fen learning so much and being eager.
Many thanks
Tell Fen he's an idol to younger boys. My son is 5 and loves coon and rabbit hunting and calls himself a "gopher hunter" with his bow. He said he wants to be like Fen when he's older!
Thanks for the great videos for us to watch together
😆perfect!
Images you can take to heaven!
I was nailed. And truly so proud of the young man.
Many thanks
There is nothing more satisfying than watching your children walking in your footsteps. Keeping the tradition alive.
Bro, I got teary eyed at 15.11 when you two embraced each other and your spirits soared together! Took me back to my own childhood and the memories of my own Dad's excitement over my first nice buck. I was so fortunate to be raised by a father who taught me to appreciate, conserve but consume nature and I just love how you are raising your boys. Much respect! BTW...hunting with Flip...OMG!!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Loved watching the bond between father and son in this trip. Can’t wait till my boy is a bit older and can start taking him on trips like this. So awesome!
Fen is a legit sniper! Well done young man!
On that third pig I was wondering how Clay got a second arrow nocked so fast and then realized he had never shot! 😂 What a little scamp that Fen is! Love seeing a father and son doing things like this together. Can’t wait until my boys can draw legal weight in my state.
That’s true love between a father and his son.
Fantastic to watch. 👍🏻🇨🇦
That boy is a Hunter, Dad! I'm proud of you 2.
Oh the things we do for our kids!!!! Your a great Dad and in return you have and will have great kid's become great Dad's!!
Thanks Rafe
This is hands down my favorite video with Finn getting shots ahead of his Dad, Clay. 😁 The look on Finn's face of total accomplishment is worth it all!!! 💯 I can only hope to be as good as either one of these excellent bow hunters! 😎
Glad you enjoyed it!
Fen has his own RUclips channel, chipping points and mounting them, shooting and making spears. Enjoyed the whole video Clay. That boy is his dad's shadow.
Awesome hunt with Fen! Man, he was getting it done!
Really good population of hogs, good to take some out.
Can’t imagine what it would be like for that young man to be out on a hunt with his father and Flip.
Will be a memory he’ll treasure forever. Thanks for sharing
Clay is a legend at this been watching him for years love the video as u go along it blends in to next scene it's professional having the kid out there is the best thing u can do for him he will never forget about the time he is having now hopefully it spreads to his friends get out and enjoy the outdoors u only get one try at this before u know it where the time go!! God bless you and your family's Timmy c Bristol ct 💯😎
Fen is a straight up killa!!! Congratulations guys on some awesome memories
Clay, it looks like your son is taking over the role of family hunter.😎
You got that right!
Perfect way to get the boy going ....you did good. He will never forget these days on your video.
Clay you are a great dad! Thanks for bringing Flip back to life for me, I used to love watching his TV show.
Glad you enjoyed it
Absolutely love seeing the father son duo hunting with recurves!
Great show of support on your part, Clay. Way to keep Fin’s spirits high. Riveting video with great shots and editing.
Thanks Paul
Love the fact you had him help drag and find the animal. Also had him help clean the hog. My father and grandfather did the same for me. So many life lessons and moments that I will always remember.
Thanks 👍
Hey Clay, I think your content is awesome and you're a great dad. I know its not my place but you might want to talk to Fen a little about safety, that shot at 20:56 could've turned bad if he had a bad shot or if you sidestepped to the right for whatever reason. Keep up the awesome work and thanks for the great content!
The lad is not so cautious with his shots. That's why he beats dad to the shot...and he connects also. The makings of a very good traditional bow hunter... I am sure there is still more on the ground for his father to teach him. We become good at what we do and we make our kids better. Your boy will become the sum of all you have done ..and then some Clay. I was lucky enough to have these moments with my son and daughter... they are priceless. Happy Hunting Clay and son!
Great job fen! Well done! Clay, I know you were thrilled to have him steal your shots, nothing makes a dad happier than being a part of a sons success.
Couldn't agree more!
Blessed hunt. Your precious little man kicking butt, Clay. Totally awesome!
Awesome father son adventure. Those memories will last a lifetime
Man Fen was slaying em! I think after the 3rd hog he was getting overwhelmed with all the adrenaline. Awesome hunt! Congrats Fen and Flip.
Thanks 👍
This skill you have passed down to your son Clay is invaluable!
That was awesome! I was rooting for Fen and laughing at the same time. The kid can shoot!
lol I was rooting for Fen so hard, you guys are AWESOME!
This was fantastic. A seasoned ol timer killing a nice buck and the next generation out there piling em up. Doesn’t get better!
What a hunt! Congrats Fen and thank you for bringing us along.
Thanks for watching!
Fen, you are the man! What a great video Clay. Felt like the old shows of American Sportsman.
Always like to see Fen’s excitement while hunting.
Man, that looks like fun! Great job Fen! Good company you keep Clay.
Love it! Thanks Clay!
You raised a true hunter Clay, congratulations to the young hunter and his mentor ✊👍
The best moments for father! Great job! Congratulations! This boy will be a great hunter.
Loved watching that boy hunt. He definitely has the instinct.
Love seeing Finn in action. Warms my heart.
You are bringing back soo many memories of my youth in interlachen . The 70s and 80s were a fun time to grow up. Glad to see it passed on to the younger generation.
God Bless You ALL in Jesus Name Amen 🙏
Outstanding video! Loved It Thank you and Congratulations to All.
You can tell he has a good teacher and nerves of steal. Great hunt I really enjoyed it
Congratulations Finn!
Best hunting video I have seen yet. I loved it.
Go Fen!!!!! Keepn' Dad on his toes!! Step it up, Clay!🤣🤣🤣
A priceless memory!!❤️
Yes sir yes sir not only making memories but putting meat on the table…… Nice…. Thanks Clay for taking us along
This is wonderful to watch...I'm feeling inspired :-) Awesome vid Clay.
You are blessed and your son is fortunate to share these opportunities in this day and age. Thanks for sharing.
Our pleasure!
I like how Fen takes action without to much hesitation and he is good, very good shooter. We all know Clay is very proud. Keep up a good work Hayes Family, appreciated from Europe.
Thanks 🙏
I love the way that Fen is becoming an accomplished bow hunter. For a youngster living in Idaho he sure does act Southern. lol
helps his dad and that side of family is about as Florida as they come.
I’m smiling, for sure. One of the coolest hunting videos I’ve ever seen. Gotta love that boy. Not to mention, how fast is he growing? You two will be sharing hunting boots in no time.
Watching Fen hunt is the best hunting content on RUclips.
He's putting out awesome shots for sure!!!
Clay, I love your content, been watching for years. Best of luck to you and yours. Hope you can keep putting out these great vids for a long time.
I appreciate that!
That was hilarious! And awesome!!!! Great shooting Fen
Living a dream here. I always wanted to fly fish with Flip but this takes it to another level. Great hunt guys 🏹
My dad grew up like this, never took the time to teach me. Good job man.
Quite a young man. With woodsmen like yourself and Flip Pallot he should be a force to recon with. I have been a fan of Flip for years and am glad to see him out in the woods, kicking Whitetail tail.
Awesome Video. Fen is a heck of a hunter already!
That was one of the best hunting videos I ever saw. good job Finn.
That's what its all about right there!!!! Great shot Fen keep it up...
Way to go fin!!!! He’s growing so fast
As a self taught hunter I strive to have these moments with my boys just waiting to take them. Your awesome an I've learned so much with archery from you an many other RUclips hunting that I've watched thank you all for sharing.
No problem Zachory
Your son has come a long way in his hunting skills, good going to all of you.
This is pretty awesome to watch. You're teaching your son well. Thanks for sharing your hunt
Thanks for watching!
Wow Clay! Gotta be a proud moment when Fen beat you to the shot ... twice! Love it!
Such a great wholesome video! I enjoyed it so much. Wish i was half as good a shot as Fen!
Fen has the potential to be a legendary hunter some day. Well done!
I hope he figures it out and develops a lot better moral compass. There was no sport in this video. Pigs even looked baited. That's not even fun for most hunters. Where was the challenge?
@@NaiWildheart maybe, but you can't argue that it was sporting because it absolutely wasn't.
As for fun, I seen a guy kick a cat for fun.
I dont have children but I guess that these kind of experiences are the most rewarding ones on a father son relationship. Thanks for sharing!
Our pleasure!
This was an excellent video ! Respect for nature, family values, and fun for all generations
Glad you enjoyed it!
You have taught him well Clay! Fen is a sniper with his bow. So great to see it being passed along to the next generation!
Clay being absolutely flustered by Fen just stealing all the shots is hilarious. At first, I was gonna comment something positive about how Fen gets to go hunting with his dad and the "big boys", but now maybe you should've left him at home, so you could get some shots off 😂 Lovely video.
Awesome ! I always apreciate teaching youngsters respect for the animal along with enjoying the hunt.
Thanks for watching!
Man that boy can shoot! Hope you will get a shot some other trip! LOL! That's why we do this is to have these experiences with our kids! Keep them Coming Clay enjoy your content! Congrat's Fen!
Man I love it you got that young man on fire you have taught him a life skill such a good job
Awesome! Nothing quite like seeing your mentoring come to fruition.
I appreciate that!
Hilarious Fen getting the shots off before you.🤣
Looks like he's had a growth spurt. Thanks for taking this old man along, I enjoy watching your videos.
Glad you enjoyed it
I think there's something to be said there, When you tell the older gentleman goodluck, And he says have fun!
Great video. Congratulations Fen and thanks for bringing your dad along. I see an elk in the very near future
Like seeing kids get out hunting. He placed a good shot and even got his arrow back. Lots of good food there.
Started my three boys when they were very young, now can't get them out of the woods,love it!! Great job.
That is awesome!
Awesome trip and video, y’all keep up the great work.
Like father, like son. Finn is becoming quite the hunter. Good job little buddy
Awesome Job Dad. You are raising a fine young man and a heck of a hunter!
Many thanks
Dagum! Ole pops gettin slow! Haha what an awesome hunt. That’s hard to beat right there.
For sure!
@@clayhayeshunter I’m here in Navarre brother, any idea when you might do some bow build classes on the farm again?
This is great! Absolutely love this oh, I made a red oak bow for my six-year-old nephew and I'm teaching him traditional archery
Man, you better keep an eye on Fen! He really put it on you. Great hunt guys! What a treat to get to watch y'all hunt with Flip!
Thanks 👍
The fly fisher in me was like, wow that looks just like Flip Pallot. And sure enough. LOVE Fen stealing your shots! Another great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Great job young man. Great job. And with a long bow at that. Congrats 100 times over. Not many archers use trad equipment. Nice shot, great hog
Fantastic, Clay! Your fixing to have a darn good all-around woodsman on your hands there. This young fellow is getting right with the program and will only improve his skills from here on out. Congrats all the way around to the both of you!
Many thanks
@@clayhayeshunter did he shoot right past you?😳
Congratulations Fen… nice job… thank you for sharing!
Thank you very much!
Enjoyed watching your video and your son doing such a great job harvesting hogs. I am from Idaho and enjoy your videos of the high country hunts for elk. I can't hunt anymore due to health issues and old age, but so fun to see your son so enthused. Brought back memories of when I used to hunt with my dad. Great job Clay raising your son right.. I do shoot archery traditional in my back yard just for fun. 30 lb. recurve.
Thanks Lorin
I can’t wait to do this with my own son when he gets older. Congratulations you guys awesome hunt
Fantastic! What a cool deal for your son to hunt like this with his Dad!
