I knew I was going to fish for a living from being a youngster. I feel like it's part of my DNA.

That’s the million dollar question!

really good one!

Honestly... it was a rough season for me too, well the last 3-4 years in general with life and all hasn't been easy at all! I passed on a few smaller bucks as well, but I try to always remind myself... I simply bow hunt because I love it, and it gives me some peace away from all the chaos and pain life has dealt me with for a long time. But yeah, I feel you on having a rough season. Mine sucked lol no nice way to put it. I was blessed to take 2 nice size does, so the boys and I will be eating good. I feel like the other guy said, social media and all the hunting shows and podcast have put such a strain on hunting/hunters in general! And in all reality, a lot of them dudes come from big money and have huge private farms. Not everyone has that luxury! Either way, Hunting is what we love... and we know some seasons will suck! But just being out in the woods is therapy for me!

wish I had the same results

could be a workhorse for a lot of anglers

I broke my champ 763 c and decided to replace with the champ 744, can’t wait to throw it.

I’m not a Dad, but I would think early season is much more suitable for young hunters. Less pressured game, better weather, better temperatures, etc. I’d support whatever legal hunting methods get kids out in the woods. There’s already enough gate keeping from the Fudds against any changes that give more opportunity (Saturday opener, Sunday hunting, DMAP tags). There doesn’t need to be any additional gate keeping. I’ve mostly used a crossbow the past 3 seasons as an adult. Some people talk crap, but I don’t really care. My old compound is at the point where im only comfortable shooting animals at 20 yards or less, and I already have too many outdoor hobbies so don’t have $1k plus laying around for an upgrade.

At the end of the day, most of us hunt to have fun, relax, and to maybe get some good meat. I think it’s really important to reevaluate things if or when it stops being fun. It doesn’t always have to be a grind. I’ve gone over 7 years not shooting a buck from passing smaller ones than what I was looking for, and I’ve had years like the last two where I got a buck and multiple doe. I feel like for most of us, hunting seasons ebb and flow in terms of success. Social media is definitely putting pressure on people to “grind it out,” have deer or turkey tours, and measure success by how many tags you fill.

good plan

U should do more videos scouting like those kind of videos

we all deal with it

sounds like a quality rod

When my son started he could not pull the kid compound bow back for a few years, Xbow was not available to hunt with is the state of Illinois. He's been hunting successfully for 20 years now. At some point the State allowed Xbow hunting, by that time he had been hunting for several years with a kid compound. He is an avid hunter and enjoys it very much. Children need to be nurtured as they grow into hunting same as fishing... I imagine you had to put worms on your kids hooks as well as take fish off their hooks. Good Luck.

Spot on brother!

you're right

Very true

Good video!

You should try the Gloomis glx 853c JWR

Love it man. That was an awesome and informative video. That looks like a beautiful piece of public too. And that buck is a dandy!

Good points!

This was awkward

Sounds like a PC stance to me. I mean staff or don't staff but own it bro. Think you left out a bunch of cons. At the end of the day, rather you staff or not, you are still a customer and should be treated as such! Lack of leadership, good management of people and a solid customer service will kill any program and I feel when these things are lacking, this contributes to the overall quality of a brand...brands are only as good as these things and people internally pushing the products.

yup yup

truth

nice

don't forget the tube

spot on

They seem great, will look into getting a pair based on the review

I needed to hear this. Great tips and advice brother... I will definitely be dedicating more time to scouting and finding new areas for next fall. Awesome video man!

Nice video Eric!!!!

Good video man. Honestly, I couldn’t agree more! I feel the same way about Dan and them. I feel like the best hunters kill deer consistently on public land! I also have a smaller permission piece, and even with surrounding pressure… the deer can be a little tricky to hunt at times. I’ve noticed similar with a permission piece in the past as you did… I seen doe there no problem. But bucks not as often. In my opinion… public land hunting is tougher… not only because of pressure, because the deer are so educated and have so many escape routes as well. Either way, killing big bucks consistently is not an easy task. I do know since I got into hunting 6 years ago, it requires a tremendous amount of time! So as a father and full time employee… that’s a challenge too. Good stuff man. You explained it well too… nothing fancy, just right to the point!

Did you have any issues connecting it ? I have a fusion X out in my field but this reactor the third led light is red and says it can’t connect to my account. Any help is appreciated

Oh yea

Nice

Very nice! My son and i were just there with no luck. What did you catch him on?

Have the DC 734 Sierra 703 spinning Kaden 735CB and 713

I broke my St Croix Premiere 6" light action last year. St Croix honored their warranty but I took store credit and upgraded to a medium action Avid series. Thinking of buying this one to replace my light action.

Great set of 6. I’d include a couple of the same ones in my tops Dx744 Dc735 Dc734 Sa733 Dc732sf The 6th rod would be harder to pick lol. Could be any of these STP670sf, Sa702/703sf, Fr705cb, Sa683, Sa704, Kd713/714/715.

Good stuff

If your into bow hunting scentlok is a game changer but you have to do the whole system including a scentlok pack because your backpack is just a human scentwick my old pack stinks like mildew and sweat from early season hunts this scentlok pack don't stick at all man

Would you be able to carry sticks on the sides easily? Can’t find anything about it anywhere.

Thanks for the review of the Lite pack! It seems to be really nice! Keep up the good work! Happy New Year's to you and the family!!!

Well I have analysed Your youtube Channel and realised that your videos aren't getting enough exposure. I have also watched some of your videos and loved it. I think videos like those should get more views.

Why is the most expensive nok still pushing in and out to where inside shaft wears out and gets loose..cheap nocks use a switch on the side and works great...i paid $15 a dozen and really like them

Great insight

Digging the beard

Sweet bow

first video that shows me how the quiver goes on and off.

I fished it for 5 days. While being in town for the LLWS 23. Each day id hit another spot. Just following 87 N. I will say the the creek has a crazy amount of inspects and bugs. So for the 5 days I fished. I didnt see ONE FISH period. Idk mayne wronf time of year? I did see alot of delayed harvest signs. Gratz on that catch.
