    Just for your information. The center for the Detroit lions after the first playoff victory in 32 years had a hunting public Hoodie on. Congrats to you guys for becoming the inspiration for us publicl land hunterd.

      Great hunt. Odds are so stacked against even winning in wildcard round that it’s equally disheartening, coming that close to the buck as it is for Jason Kelce finishing his career by losing in the first round
      For Philadelphia great career though and again great hump on video

      Too bad about Kelse, no matter how much private I have or could have, I'll never give up public. It's just where my heart is. Thanks for the show boys. Keep her rocking!

    On days like that with high wind, make sure y’all are picking good sturdy trees and always look up and examine the above branches and surrounding trees for anything that could break and fall on/near you

  • @matthewwichtner2935
    @matthewwichtner2935 8 месяцев назад +11

    All you guys are amazing. U-all made me find my The passion again. I've been doing this for 30, 40 years or whatever. Kind of just went out for gun, just because. But because my kids got me a crossbow, (I was into big time, compound bow hunting at one time), then watching you guys. I found the passion again. It's amazing how many things I thought I forgot, that you guys, triggered my memories. And/or taught me much more new stuff. And I doubt I'm alone. So many people, really, I have no doubt, so many people. You all have helped in some regard. Love the realness, passion, dedication and education that you all put out. Don't lose that. It is what sets you guys apart from all the rest. Thanks for helping me find my passion again!! All the best boys, All the best!😊

    Great role modes for ethical hunting! Sadly some people would still have shot without checking or caring, just for some antlers. Great hunt and valuable lesson of its cold no matter how many layers you put on while sitting still! Appreciate you guys!

  • @kirk420420420
    @kirk420420420 8 месяцев назад +3

    This is why them big boys stay alive. Just the little things they do, like not being the first in the field, waiting 10 minutes at the edge of the grass, etc. Good luck guys, hopefully you can fill that tag soon.

    @michaelkelenic2120 8 месяцев назад +2

    Give you credit for tuffing it out in that wind! Hearing that wind gave me many memories of waiting it out on stand.
    Can’t wait for the next video!

    I hunted that same evening in western Illinois, and it was a brutal night. I only saw one deer and a bobcat from stand, but several out in another field as I left. The next evening there were deer all over from like 3:00 on, but shooters stayed well out of bow range. Fun and frustrating bowhunting late season.

  • @MrJimbo1212

    Man oh man! my favorite hunting video of the year....Congrats on such an incredible encounter and of course awesome footage... Ill bet you were not that cold when the ol heart was pumping that 10 minute time frame before legal shooting ended... thanks for the real time as well.... I'm watching again.. lol..way to get after it in the cold and wind....

  • @GoZouRah
    @GoZouRah 8 месяцев назад +2

    First off, love everything you guys have put out since I caught wind of you from searching missouri bowhunting public land. I've followed and listened and learned enough to make a few purchases from the woods guys. And that says alot because I'm a tight a$$. I have nothing but love for you guys but this might be the first time I've seen miserable on Warb's face. Ever. And it struck me, hence the first maybe second comment I've ever made. Late season makes you feel inadequate already, unless you're out there to punch extra tags for meat. Those early sits are for the bruisers we put sweat equity into long ago. The late season punch is a real thing for alot of Missourians. I paused this video three and a half minutes in when i recognized the struggle. It's probably somewhere in Iowa lmao. To the crew, cast and audience, aka the WHP the whole hunting public, hope you all had a great season and more ahead. Cheers

    With those weather conditions you could have shot a 40lb button head and I would have been excited! That was a really rough hunt. I don't know how you endured that cold wind and held that bow too! Thanks to you for making great videos for us to enjoy!

    That’s so aggravating I know I have had that happen a few times in the past but that’s why they call it hunting and not killing. Still a great video as usual Warb and Zack Thanks for sharing.

    @stevenschmidt5712 8 месяцев назад

    Deja vu all over again. I was out in same conditions on southern IA public only tucked tighter to bedding and in the woods. Unfortunately, the deer could have taken many different trails to food and did not come by me. Always frustrating to see their tails leaving the field on the cold lonely walk back to the truck. Late season is tough but their is something primal and final about it. Great video guys. Much respect 👍

    Don't worry about what other people say, Aaron. You made a good decision passing. I had a nice buck at 120 this year with the muzzleloader. I was uncomfortable with the shot and decided not to take it. Best of luck to you guys, and I hope you soon connect, and I enjoy learning different tactics. Keep it up. it's much appreciated.

    I endured the same wind from the same storm this Saturday - in eastern PA (5C), with 30-30 AND bow, lol, but the risk of limbs in the tree I was in was just too much. (Your wind chill must have been brutal.) Ground hunting provided good wind break but no shot for me either. Beautiful photography in that storm. Thanks for sharing!

    I'm glad you also show ethics besides great hunting videos! Too many people just want to send it and hope. I don't care how many shots you make at 50 yds in your backyard practice, hanging in a tree changes shooting at things that move is totally different . Especially with that wind. Keep up the great work.

    The 9point i killed this year in TN acted the exact same way. I was huntin near a corn field and had a hot doe right behind me and he came out and came jogging into about 50 yards from the corn and stopped for about 5-10 mins and could see the doe but stood there looking around for what seemed like forever and finally came in to get on the trail to go to her and i double lunged him and he fell after 30 yards. They are smart!

    I got a 5 year old mature buck. 183 pound 10 pointer. Late afternoon he popped out. He stopped and stared at us for 10 mins. He either smelled us or heard us. But he was a very cautious deer and came from bedding. I had a perfect 80 yard clear shot, a Rest and my dad stopped him.
