  • Legacy: Something handed down from one person to another.
    Wayne Endicott (Dad) introduced archery hunting blacktail deer, in the high country of Oregon, when I was just a kid. Dad continued to invest in teaching me how and where to hunt.
    This film is special, beyond words, to me as it represents a unique bond I share with dad. Dad and I have shared some incredible and unforgettable experiences; each experience marked with appreciation and respect for the unforgiving character of the mountain. Therefore, by the grace of God, we return to this place, to leave comfort and safety, in pursuit of the most beautiful deer ever created - Blacktail.
    This is not a hunt just to kill a deer. This hunt is an invitation to participate in the ongoing gift of life. This hunt demands all attention and gives one everything necessary to fully experience humanity. The technical term here is pain. This hunt pushes ones physical limits, to find and outsmart a mature old buck. At any point, this hunt can be taken away.
    My mind and body are temporary, my days are numbered, and I know that one day I may not be able to complete such a hunt. However, I have right now to make the most of the opportunity and choose the next best decision in pursuit to become who I was/am created to be.
    Thank you, Dustin Ruth.
    Your music was such a blessing for such an important (to me) film. You are incredibly gifted.
    Cheers,
    Nathan Endicott

    Met your Dad at the shop in Springfield recently and I’m so glad we have that level of professionalism in the bowhunting PNW. The whole crew there was both technical and inspiring. I will be traveling from the gorge to keep up with the big hitters down there as often as possible.
    Capturing the spirit of the pacific NW mountains and your connections that got you there is further inspiring. Thank you and see you out there.

    Great buck man. I respect the honesty at the end with you shooting all of your arrows and running back to get more. Could have made it seem like it was one shot and he piled up shortly after.

      I left out that I forgot to drink or eat anything since 4AM that day and my last attempt to get another arrow in the buck was at 1:30PM. I was down to one arrow and shaking uncontrollably... Like what was I thinking! lol
      Also, when i ran back to my truck, I dropped my pack with all my food and water in it and didn't even think to drink something at the truck.
      I was just super focused on recovery. Still shocked at how far that buck went. My shot was 43-yards and i put my 40-yd pin on him. Was low by about 3-inches.

    Love the video man. I’m hoping to get my first black tail this season in SW Washington. New guy to hunting in the last three years I’ve only spent a handful of weekends out. This year I’m determined but between work and family it’s hard to get time out there. Love how you just walk around and see deer at all times of the day. I’ve found it hard to get to a place where there aren’t other people walking or driving around that’s a reasonable distance from the house. Fingers crossed this year I fill the freezer.

    • @NathanEndicott_Films
      @NathanEndicott_Films  2 года назад +1

      Sounds like you have good priorities with work and family. When you do get a day to set aside for hunting, you will really want to make the most of it. The spots I hunt typically require a couple hours driving, a couple hours hiking, and I do this before daylight and I hunt till dark.
      Still hunting the big open timber can be very productive and the success is in my ability to hunt hard and I’ll take those odds over sitting any day.
      Stay positive, it will happen, you may need to check out some new areas where you see less people and be willing to burn a day to find those spots that hold deer.
      Cheers!

    • @NathanEndicott_Films

      There is certainly a correlation between hunting pressure and how spooky the deer are. I will admit I’m going to places where deer do not commonly see people. Also, I am moving very slow and catch the deer before the see me. Check out the Rich Outdoors podcast, episode 400, still hunting blacktail deer. It explains the methods.

      The deer density is not very high. I am covering about 10-miles a day and I had film from four days of hunting. It’s hard not to be discouraged when you cover that many miles and see 6-deer in a day but with knowledge and effort things eventually work out.
