I like using that rusty metal primer on all my projects
@beege1968 Yep I have used it a lot over the years. It works really well.
Greetings from the 989. Good job!
@@Larry-s9p Hey Larry. Thank you
No birch bark?
Sharpen that chain love the set up. I got the same them old tractors are the best
@@hunter62012 They really work well!
You Yooper start fires by rubbing sticks together don’t you , are them UP sneakers ? Love the camp and need to make a trip one of these years. Plus we spent a couple $$ at Chuck’s watching the Lions game Great video as always
@CharleyThePlumber Thanks Charley. And yes you need to stop by during the season!!!
Got a 500XPG. If you ever get another consider the G. The heated grips are nice!
@@katesback My next new saw will definitely have heated grips!
Mine is so slow
@mowdan77 Yep painfully slow!
Well at least I have to drive 2 miles to camp lol. I love all the videos thank you
@@leecotton9195 Thanks. I appreciate you watching

@@eddyarundale1566 Hey Eddy!!👋
Congrats to your dad and brother. Beautiful bucks fellas! Thanks for sharing your camp video with us. Look forward to them every year !
@@campbenny Thanks Benny
A couple of nice bucks! Weather was just too mild for everyone to get one! LOL!
@@KnettersPracticalOutdoors How did you do?
Yes sir couple on the pole👍👍 looks like a good time was had. Yes snow makes a big difference we had are share of it. Closed camp up this morning.
@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88 We didn't get snow until the very end of season. Time to get the muzzle loader out!
Having camp so close to home has to be nice. I would take the 5 minute walk daily to take a nice hot shower.
@@User-nx7rs It definitely has its advantages.
@Lifeinthe906 get the mail, greet the dog, shower change clothes and go back.
Really enjoyed the video Mike! Congrats to your camp on two nice bucks. When someone scores in camp the whole camp scores! After seeing your food I realized I forgot the Cheez its this year. Love venison sausage and Cheez its! Happy Holidays! Looking forward to part two!
@markpro96 Thanks Mark.Hope your Wisconsin firearm season went well. Looking forward to the video.
Small trees. Just put your shoulder on the tree and squat...
@Plizi Yep that works!
Love watching your deer camp videos. Always a good time when you go! Thanks for sharing Mike.
@craigwilson9560 Thanks Craig. Appreciate that very much.
@Lifeinthe906 looking forward to part 2
all that food is type 2 diabetes where is the meat in the woods.
Sitting in wisco deer camp now... fly down from alaska every year... low action here.. did put a spike down. Thanks for the video
@@JourneyNorthAK Congrats on your buck. Our friend Faye comes down from Alaska almost every year.
Good times😎
@Aaron_A_Lynch Yes sir. Hope your season is good.
Seems as if someone might hold the ladder 😳
@@Elonzo-k2y He did on the way back down! 🤣
@Lifeinthe906 I remember safe side Clide, look it up some funny she it 😂 Anyways I was a painter 👍
Jeez, you guys get enough salad? It's supposed to be deer camp not weight watchers. Splurge on some snack foods next year, eh? 😅
@NinePillar Yeah we definitely need more junk food. Always pack on a few lbs at deer camp!!
300 bux of food? not as much as 4 yrs ago? Thanks Brandon!!
@JamesSmith-mz9ec Next year our money will go farther!
@@Lifeinthe906 we can only hope!
I can't wait for Trump to put tariffs on everything! Prices will definitely go down next year...😂
that's pretty nice weather for november in the U.P. come to think of it that's pretty nice weather for july in the U.P.
@@bradbradshaw-i4n Yeah crazy mild weather.
at least I'm not the only one who's camp is only 200 yrds from the house but it's still camp
@@glenmomrik727 It sure is. I don't sleep at home for the whole season! 😅
Thanks Mike. I am working on building a bear/bow deer camp. Getting too old to be hunting by myself and most of my buddies don't hunt anymore. But say they worry when I go solo bear hunting.
@@eliinthewolverinestate6729 That sounds awesome. I'll hunt until I physically can't get to the woods anymore. Thanks for watching
Hey Mike , glad y’all are having a good time at deer camp . Hope you and your wife get some good ones . 👍🏻🦌
@@inthebackyardwithdel438 Hey Del. Always a great time at camp.
I hate that you know me so well 😂
@@pepiwittler8202 I do!!!
Thanks for the detailed video. I just got a 550 XP and I consider ripping logs (of walnut which is rather hard wood) with a 24" bar and chain. Did you try it yet ? I saw a video about that with a ported saw and muffler modification but I'm reluctant to do that.
@jgandiol I have not tried ripping logs with it. We have a sawmill so ripping logs is not something I would need to do.
Im way late seeing this, but opening day is today througha sunday and another weekend in Dec 3-5. Nice zhob with the firewood!
@@craigwilson9560 Thanks Craig
Good Luck w/Big Buck.
@@danbentsen Thanks Dan
Lesson learned from your experiences, check the gas in the chain and propane for the heater lol. Good luck with gun deer season Mike.
@squirrellyacres Thanks Craig
Good luck Mike!
@turklayher4794 Thanks Turk.
New blinds have nothing on those well seasoned deer palaces! Best of luck to you and your camp! My favorite time of year!
@markpro96 Thanks Mark! Definitely the best time of the year. Good luck to you .
Good luck

Good luck to you in your group. All the way from Gaylord, Michigan says hi.
@@chrisnoeske8904 Hey Gaylord. Thanks for stopping by.
Hey Mike , I don’t hunt but I could sit in one of those blinds and relax for hours . So peaceful there . Nice job on getting the blinds ready . Hope you get some big ones this year . 👍🏻🇺🇸🦌
@@inthebackyardwithdel438 Thanks Del
Good luck buddy! I'm sitting at 2 deer now. Hope to get my third before the end of the season!

The weather is staying pretty warm for this time of year, good luck hunting
@michaelwhiteoldtimer7648 Hey Oldtimer! Yeah a bit cooler would be nice.
Good luck tomorrow!
@@robertdendooven7258 Thanks Robert
Cutting snow will dull your chain, just as sawing into the ground.
