Deer Hunting in Michigan's Upper Peninsula DEER CAMP 2023
This week were headed over the Mighty Mac and into God's Country as we head to Deer Camp in Michigan's Upper Peninsula! Thing's are a little different this year as I am showing up to camp for the first time ever without a buck tag! Zack and I team up in the deer woods with high hopes of getting him a buck. The deer are up and on their feet, but so are the wolves as we lay eye on a couple back in the timber. So grab a cold beer and join us in camp this week for everyone's favorite episode!

Monster buck hunting

This week I kicked off my Rutcation with high hopes of going after a buck named Houdini! This 5.5 year old Michigan Monster has given hunter after hunter the slip season after season, but will his luck run out when he meets a hunter with no quit? After taking a doe in the early season and a beautiful 10pt during the October Lull I am headed back to the home farm with a chance to go 3/3 on the s...

This week were in the mountains of West Virginia as Jamie and I are both hoping to fill a bear tag, or possibly even a deer tag. The weather was hot and the action was jammed packed, but do we fill our tags or go home empty handed?

This week we are kicking off the new season with an early season doe hunt on the home farm here in Michigan! As always the boys seemed to of crashed the party spoiling our plans as legal shooting hours open. Now we'd have to sit back and enjoy the show as we wait for the does to show.
Deer Chores

This week I jumped in my truck and headed down to the home farm to knock out some deer chores. My time was limited, as I only had 2 hours to work with but I wanted to share with you all what I was doing on the farm while down there. I was even able to pull a few trail camera chips and share a few of the pictures with you

BIG 11pt shot

After hunting the farm several times and having some close calls, Kyle finally is able to take down a buck that he was after at last legal light. Although the light was too dark to catch the shot on film we were able to catch all the excitement and the highs and lows of the hunt. This 11pt buck fills one of Kyles two Michigan tags!

Deer hunting the COLD FRONT
มุมมอง 445ปีที่แล้ว
After an exciting opening day, the team is back in the woods as a major 21 degree cold front moves on in on us. The deer are on their feet, and a target buck comes well within range. But sometimes within range and doing the ethical thing makes things a little difficult. Watch as week two unfolds for the guys as you aren't going to want to miss it! SZN: 5| Eppy 2

Were finally back in the tree as Michigan's opening day of bow season is finally here! This week were headed back to the farm with high hopes of tagging a nice Michigan Buck. After spending time putting in food plots, clearing trails, and hanging stands and cameras we are hoping all our hard work pays off, and with plenty of big bucks in the area we have reasons to be optimistic!

    I can’t help but notice how you pass those 2 year old 8 points on your home farm but then you and your guys will come up to the UP and essentially shoot any buck bigger than a spike. We could grow big bucks too without trolls coming up and shooting our young bucks. I like your videos and I’m a subscriber but I gotta say….it chaps my ass. No wonder most hunting yoopers don’t like Trolls and FIBS.

    • @DroptineRidge
      @DroptineRidge 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you for watching and being a subscriber! I can understand why you would feel that way. Only two of us are bow hunters. We have followed the 3 on a side rule for as long as it has been in place in the UP. Surprisingly the hunting was actually a LOT better before that rule came into place, but I also think we can both agree that there’s a four legged animal that adds to that problem. I definitely can see where you are coming from but it doesn’t have the impact one would think, just look at the bridge numbers and the actual numbers from the harvest reports. One of the guys shot only his second buck in the UP in over 20 years of hunting this year. The farm we are hunting is special no doubt and I am lucky to hunt it. But I also am a guest there and do not own it, so there are rules I have to follow. I am thankful for your support and do enjoy some of the constructive feedback. I will let you know this season I and a few others in camp have made the choice to go after older class deer this year there. Again, thank you for watching and good luck this year! I hope you get a big one!
