How To Scare Away Boyfriends
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2022
- This is how we prepare for the apocalypse and boyfriends. It started out as a mobile archery target and backstop for my girls to practice but then I added axe throwing into the mix. Now we can compete side by side at archery or axe throwing. We just have to swap out the targets. This was an easy project to build. I used rubber horse stall mats as a backstop. The backstop keeps us from losing arrows and it also keeps the axes from bouncing back on a miss. This is how you raise them right. Boyfriends and zombies don't stand a chance.

My father was a wise man. He once said, a project is not complete unless you make three trips to the hardware store. You'd be amazed how true that really is. Love the videos!
Thanks!
3? I wish I was that efficient 🤣
Cute. And it might be 3 trips in one day. Lol
Being an retired contractor and making so many unneeded trips I can attest this is fact. Especially if you're building off grid.
You alway miss something the 1 st time 😆
Great video! I too was blessed with three amazing girls! My oldest, 17, is very proficient with a longbow, recurved bow and a compound bow as well as a handgun and rifle. My middle child, 6, has just been introduced to archery and has already fallen in love with it! My 3 year old….well that one has an arm on her already, might start her off with the hatchets…🤣😂
Keep up the great work and thank you for sharing.
Thanks. Yeah I couldn’t show the real fun stuff on here. 😉 I bought a semi auto bb gun with recoil so my younger girls could learn how to operate an AR here in the yard. My oldest goes to the range with me.
@@HAXMAN 🤫
The oldest daughters draw length is a good bit too long for her. That’s the single biggest issue that will cause accuracy problems with any archer. There is a pdf on the internet called the nuts and bolts of archery that does a great job explaining proper draw length and form. Great video!
Thanks for the tip!
I so enjoy your videos, especially when your daughters are involved with your crazy...erm, i mean genius...projects. Brings fond memories of being my dad's grease monkey (and yes, monkey was my nickname too) and tool fetcher. Learned so much from him, and so cherish those time with him as I know your girls will too!
I’m so glad. Thank you!
Great Job. My Dad always told me, Baby you’ve got two hands and a brain and they work the same as any guy, there is nothing you can’t do.
I love you and your whole family. I laughed and laughed. It also warmed my heart to see parents teaching their girls to be strong women.
I really love your videos, they teach me so much about everything from Tools to gardening. That being said, I started gardening because it calms me after working through lock down and home projects to try and put my 2 semesters of woodshop to use 😅 (40 yrs later). What I don't know is all the apocalypse and survival tips. Can you please give me some insight?
Thank you! I have some videos on food storage and those kinds of things. I’m going to be doing some more prepping videos.
My woodshop skills are even older than yours, and I'm proud of both of us for building stuff! 😁
And I'm finding helpful videos by searching on terms like "survival crops", "food preservation", and "home security." (I live way out in the country, so those are my top concerns.)
Your kids are lucky to have such fun, smart parents!
I'm so good with this channel operated by a real MAN! Proud of this fella for telling it like it is and with plenty of info to learn to boot. I'm certainly a loyal subscriber at this point.
Hi Haxman!
I was thinking today…how much I think I’d like to see Kim sharing about how she
1. Deals with you (😆)
And
2. How she manages all the things she does like homeschooling the kids, helping with prepper stuff…
You could call it “HaxWOMAN”. 😁
I’m sure that would create a huge burden for y’all for filming and such.
But. I’d really enjoy the opportunity to “get to know” the Mrs.
Kim has a channel. She doesn't upload often though. th-cam.com/channels/rF1lz7se6fDffGlEXn0Ljw.html Thanks!
Young man, you are doing so right by those beautiful young ladies!!! My granddaddy always said there's a point in every project where you have to rethink and redo something (much like the 4x4 adjustment and green to brown paint)... That's what helps make you a real man! But those girls will, for sure, look back at these times and thank you for your foresight!!! Well done! That deserves two 👍👍!!! Take care, be safe and God bless!!
Thanks so much Jim!
I have a bone to pick with you,”I have been blessed with 3 beautiful girls in hoping the girl find a dangerous gentleman. Really I thought you were better than that ! You’re really good at accepting your girls your so noble.
"Woo that girl's country..." 🤣🤣🤣 I grew up in the back woods of east TN. I don't think there's a tree on my family property that I didn't climb, swing from, or fall out of!
😁
You're an awesome Dad! I have 2 girls myself and I had been teaching them how to use the Shepherd Sling. All you need is a rock for ammo.
That's awesome! I'd love to learn that. Seems like it would take a lot of skill.
Where I'm at in Florida there aren't rocks laying around. There's a lot of sand though
@@HAXMAN takes a lot of practice but it's super satisfying
You can buy nylon archery netting. They are light, can take the abuse of certain hunting tips and can be strung up just about anywhere using parachord or a thin cable; plus they are a soft capture so you don't have to worry about shoving the tip back into the arrow shaft.
I use to hang mine on the washline. With some cheap carabiners and a bungie chord on one end to keep it spread open.
Just got done with something similar for my family too. With 2 girls of my own I want them to know how to take care of themselves and enjoy the outdoors
When I was a kid, we used an old room sized rug slung over a defunct swing set. Did the job for target points. We also used actual recurve bows, not all this fancy compound stuff they have now. 45# was about the best I could pull (I was 12.)
1. Haxman's hair 👍🏻 2. Awesome observation 👍🏻 3. Nifty archery 👍🏻 4. Great Ax idea 👍🏻 5. Always make me laugh 👍🏻🤣🤣🤣🤣
😁 Thanks!
First of all I’m laughing so hard at your videos, got my kids hooked & laughing too. Thanks for the awesome & funny & helpful tips, trick & to the point videos. Where did you find the mat to hang up? I definitely have to make 1 for my kids as well. Thanks again!!
Thanks! I got it at Tractor Supply. It’s just a horse stall mat.
Thanks again.
Easton XX75s. Have not seen those since I worked in sporting goods back in the 90s. Great job on the target. Might need to take one of the wife's mats from her gym to duplicate this.
Love it ! Take a look at slingshots and clay ammo . My son and I just got into shooting them and it's very similar to archery . Plus they are easy to carry in the woods taking fun shots at pine cones and whatnot.
I’ll do that. My girls would love that.
You guys are hilarious together.....what a great couple....what a great family!😁
This was an excellent video - almost the best one you have ever done. When you walked in front of the targets towards the end, I lost it! Keep them coming.
Thanks so much Tom!
By the way - you are 100% correct on men being soft today. I am slightly guilty as charged, but I make sure my family (wife & 2 teen girls) and I do some real work on our property almost every weekend. We have 2.5 acres with a lot of tree work, cleaning, clearing, weeding, mowing, etc. This is really great to see.
I love the fact (as well as find it quite ironic) that at the end while talking about your problems with intruders, and what you did about it, you happened to be holding 2 hatchets. Yeah, those intruders better watch out!
In all the years of TH-cam I've subscribed to 10 channels this was a no brainer for me. I absolutely love dad teasing mom w the Copenhagen LOL that was classic oh and to the 3 girls keep shooting them arrows this one was great
I really want to be your neighbor. Lol. Glad to see I’m not the only one trying to raise kids right in this day and age. Keep it up my friend.
As a father of two girls we frequent the woods and water and included “range” time during COVID while bunkered at the family land for PE.
👊
I'm so late getting to watch the video, but another fun and purposeful project. Good to see Kim chasing you down; haven't seen her posting videos on her channel lately. Hope she didn't have any trolls getting at her.
Thanks! We just found it was tough to do two channels. I'm going to try and have her on more and she'll upload every once in awhile.
@@HAXMAN Well that definitely makes sense. My wife gets onto me for watching your videos in the office without headphones because she gets distracted while working on her masters degree. We get such a kick out of your videos.
Oh Yeah Arrows and Axes are super cool!!! Another AMAAAAZING!!! project Thank you all for the video🤣👍 🚜💨
Thanks Mitch!
This is most definitely the guy any young man should take notes from on how to be a father
Thank you so much
@@HAXMAN that was simply the first thought when I saw the video and made me decide to click on it.
Hey Hax - Great work. What's the status of the flood plain in the yard? Best to you, Kim, the girls, the dogs and the chickens. I love my Nine Line shirts. The St. Pete Beach condo is still available to you guys for free.
I put up a bunch of those tree trunks as a dam and it seems to have worked. Of course I had to pull one for the targets. 😂 Thanks so much Chuck!
Here I am the father of a 6 yr old girl. I see the title The Apocalypse and boyfriends...and I see your drawing and I immediately thought gallows....but I like the archery range setup anyway! Lmao
Hello! I'm a new subscriber from Kalamazoo, Michigan.
Thank you for sharing your information. 😉👍💗
Thanks!
This video was hilarious. But...this is a great idea. I think I'll build one for our back yard. 👍
I appreciate the nod to the Robertson screws. As a Canadian, i feel sorry that our US friends have to suffer from stripped screw head madness.
No need to feel sorry, we have GRK screws
Lol bugger hooks. I used to be on a fire dept. We referred to them as d!@# beaters. And i was cracking up. With comment. Chew can butt marks.
I wish i had the chance to do stuff with my girls. Hats off to you. 🇺🇸👍
I love watching your videos with my wife, I swear to her I will build something from this channel one day! Keep up the great work and humble, family-friendly content! #haxnationbaby
Glad to hear it! Thanks!
Well done partner. I make axe throwing targets up here in north Carolina (I use popular planks).
Glad I found your channel!!
Thanks Charles!
@@HAXMAN have you given any thought on the axillary backup lights Idea?
@@charlespelton7931 Not right now but I have a lot of things I want to do to the truck.
Omg your sling blade is perfect! 😆
Great video. I, myself have been thinking about acquiring bow and arrows as an alternative to firearms. (Or in addition too).
Thanks! Go with “in addition” 😉
@ 1:07 "is this one of your overbuilt projects?" Classic!
Y'all, I had to pause the video cause I was laughing so hard at the PE Teacher, Ms. Harbo. Did all our PE teachers look the same back then? Man, I am nearly on the floor.
Love your humor. Keep up the good work. Kim's wonderful.
Thanks so much!
Your videos make me truly laugh out loud!
Thanks for sharing 🤣
Thanks Wes!
8:27 - as someone with 11.2MM assorted fasteners, I feel ya on this one. Never the right one handy. Ever.
Awesome video, as always. Anymore I just hit like as soon as your latest video starts playing. Can't say I do that with any other channel. Check out Bulldog targets! I have both of the ones you have and then got a Bulldog....SUPER nice!
Thanks Justin, I will!
I found you from a recommended video (Raised garden beds are so yesterday) and boy am I glad that I did! Love your videos! Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!
Never had any of our own but I fear for my nephews and niece. Love the idea of homeschooling . Ultimate Warrior 🤣
Everything's right with being country! Love it!
👊
This is pretty much the coolest dad-dude on TH-cam.
So much truth in the first 2 and a half minutes alone, great video couldn't agree more
glad you're raising your kids to be dependable, and not parasitic!
Mr Haxman, the controllers plan to have rolling power cuts to the grid (just to keep you in stress mode) so maybe a vid about going off grid with solar panels and battery's..keep up the good work
LOL! Always enjoyable. ROBERTSON? Yup. Nothing better. Nothing. Duck!!! :)))
Thanks Gord!
AWESOME VIDEO GUYS LOVED IT 👍❤🙏😇
So, glad you guys are home-schooling!
I love compound bows. So fun.
Another great video. I was crying at the Copenhagen remark, and her coming after you!!
Thanks! 😄
I read your comment before I got to that part and it was still funny. 😆
It totally lost me, must be an American thing 🤷🏼♂️
People who use dip a lot usually have a circle imprint on their jeans kind of like people have phone imprints.
@@HAXMAN Nope, even more confused than I was ten minutes ago 🤣
one flaw with your theory. If your girls were around my age Id be attracted to such a woman. Its been a dream of mine to find a zombie apocalypse girl who loves bows lol in any case i admire your style. You seem like you will raise fine women. Good job, too much of the soft types as you mentioned. Also get them quivers! they will have to be on the move when the time comes.:) go primal offers a nice quiver and survival bow. i enjoy mine
LOVE it, Adam. Such a fun project-ile...
Thanks Ed!
She looked SOOOO enthusiastic throwing the hatchet. 🙄😂😂😂
he's said one thing and I love him already
LOL the split pens that you used, you need to split them both ways not all in one way, but if it works it works ;)
Nice!
Sometimes violence is the answer.
Thank you for the video
People should just give it a chance. 😄 Thanks!
Next time you don’t have a wash just drill a hole in a penny! Washer 5 cents penny washer 1!! Awesome project!!
Why have I never heard of that? That's freakin awesome. 😂
Another excellent video!
As you can probably tell I'm binge watching your videos... in no particular order... but... it is strange how your hair is long in one video and short in another... I'm almost thinking that you have a wig depending on what type of project you are doing! 😀
Thanks Peter! It's actually CGI. I'm completely hairless. Studies show people relate to people with body hair better. It takes weeks of work and millions of dollars to create the effect for every video. 😁
I love all your videos. But this one made me laugh the most!!! 😂. Keep making them brother 👍!!!!!
Thanks! Will do!
Haxman the Axeman, love it, another great build. Loved the comic cartoon graphics for the story b-roll, it was a great touch.
Thank you!
Whoa crazy! How do you drill holes into that rubber mat without drilling into your truck!!! Every time I try to drill holes into something I end up with holes in my workbench!
Is your family ok after the Hurricane? I hope everyone is ok🥰 What is a Copenhagen imprint?
I am half Danish, so just wondered.
Great video as usual!
Yes. Thank you. It just skipped past us. A little rain and wind. Copenhagen is tobacco dip. It comes in a round can and leaves an imprint in the jeans of people (usually men) who use it. 😄
I was wondering because of your wife’s response to you on that “Copenhagen imprint “ comment😊 It was hilarious! Have a great week✨✨✨
Here I thought it was just my husband who had to make multiple trips to the hardware store for one project. 😂
Great video. My day isn’t complete without a trip or two to HD.
Thanks!
this has got to be one of the best PE exercises ever. Can i take axe throwing 101 please. thats pretty cool, i kinda want to build one now
😄
Living in a dream pal . You got two Daughter's and a wife . You are owned buddy , heh just sayin....You will eventually want these girls to get guys . You might not see it now but it's coming Bro . Good Luck
Lol, so true about the Robertson screws, my dad lives and dies by them.
Amazingly entertaining video!
Thanks!
In a sea full of blue haired tree hugers on youtube, you are an inspiration to us all.
That's right, Dad! Teach those girls what a real man is, so they won't marry a boy like you lol. Sory couldn't resist lol. Interesting reference thar you quoted. Enjoying the channel .
i always enjoy watching your videos. thanks hax.. beard up .. winter is almost here. the new ice age
Thanks Dennis!
Ok… after seeing Axe throwing, I just might need to overbuild this too. Might need a second mat, though, so I can have kids work on BB guns.
Yeah. I actually wanted to hang two matts side by side. That would have made the overall width two feet wider and the matts would have hung lower.
Love your videos!
Thank you!
Love! Love! Love this video!!!! Cartoon graphics in the beginning was great! Good message!!!
Here's the next training goal for all the Family:
Use a stapler to attach a grid of small balloons to that rubber back-drop.
Give everyone some good slingshots and standard bar darts and teach them how to shoot darts with a slingshot.
Related: You can also purchase slingshot darts (specially-made for sling use) and teach them how to use those, too.
That grid of balloons can be used for some great target practice and, at the same time, it makes for a truly fun party game for birthdays.
Also Related: Have you ever heard of slingshot fishing darts? Get everybody a full set, including slingshots, a couple of fishing darts (they're basically miniature spear-fishing spears), and wrist-mounted fishing reel & line. Teach them how to put them together, teach them how to use them and let them practice... and then take them out to the local stream, river, or pond (preferably some place where there's nobody watching) and everybody gets to go slingshot fishing.
- Give a girl a fish and she'll say "EEEEEWWwwwwwww! You didn't clean it!"
- Teach a girl to fish and she'll say "EEEEEWWwwwwwww!" and then you get to say, "You catch it, you clean it!"
- Yet another Learning Opportunity. But, then again, you also get to teach them how to grill fresh-caught fish, which they caught, themselves.
I have theorized (but never attempted it), that those slingshot fishing darts could also be used to hunt small-to-medium game, such as wabbits, squirrels, raccoons, badgers, etc. No black powder needed. No loud noises.
(I have NOT scrolled thru your entire channel, so IDK how much of this you've already tried. I hope your ladies at least have a set of slingshots and know how to shoot and know how to attach new bands. And I hope they love them some plinking. Please let me know if I'm covering territory you-all have already explored. And if you haven't feel free to talk with me about ideas.
When it comes to ideas, I'm really full of it.
Wait...
I've never heard of those. I'm going to look into it now though. Thanks!
@@HAXMAN
TH-cam University is very much your friend in this.
Fantastic idea and video! Thanks for sharing it!
Thanks!
👍
I wish you had a Menards in your area!
That voice was spot on! rofl [BillyBob]
Do you have links for the axes and bows? My girl is getting interested in these things and I want ro encourage it. Love the videos, keep it up
Riley's bow amzn.to/3pVexPO Madison and Cameron's bow amzn.to/3TnOFK6 Axes amzn.to/3x1mfw3 Thanks!
@@HAXMAN thank you!!!
@@steak9085 You can get much cheaper compound bow obviously if you’re interested in those. We got her this one because it’s adjustable. A 15 year old girl or a grown man can shoot it so it will last for her as she gets stronger.
Absolutely hilarious
She dipped….😂😂😂
I'm fine with the gecko making a cameo appearance... just as long as he's not trying to sell me any insurance.🦎
I agree with everything you said my man!
👊
Ted Nugget comes to mind at Menards.
Kudos for the Victor Marx shoutout.
👊
HAXMAN says "Men are too week these days"... moments later "these 4x4s are too heavy... boo hoo:("
Ha ha, jk... I love your videos and your excellent family man example, keep up the great work.
You guys are great. Thanks
Thank you!
2 pieces of steel cable and 4 turn buckles on the diagnal behind your rubber mat would stiffen that sucker right up
I might do that. For now I just screwed a 2x4 diagonally but I would rather not have that there to split from axes or arrows.
very helpful video. love your fam. ❤️
Who’s the stellar artist? I enjoyed the cute stick figure animations, haha! Great vid as always…and Kim is always such a good sport. 😆
I actually paid someone to do that on fiverr. I was going to do it myself and didn’t have time. Thanks!
Don't forget your wrist-rocket and 3/8" ball bearings!
That's a great Sling Blade impression
😁
