    I’m just a waterfowl hunter so that’s mostly what I watch from y’all. I don’t mind the ads cause I know they help, so do what you need to do. 👍🏻

    Having a channel myself, I couldn’t agree more with you. Most people don’t realize what it takes behind the scenes, and maintain a full time job, and for some of us being a father too.
    I believe some people just hate because they see you are getting better and doing what you love! I will be honest, I haven’t agreed on all your tests, but the content is solid and no bs. Appreciate you sitting down and being real!
    I am the same way with filming, just real honest stuff and no fancy scripts. Also, much respect from another blue collar man. I grew up in a blue collar hard working family. Believe me I get it!
    Keep it up fellas. And cheers to a safe and awesome season this fall!!

    I appreciate this man. I've just started this journey and I'm starting to learn this. It's funny because you think you are going to make all this money, but in reality, you do good to make a few hundred bucks a month from views for a normal channel. Got to find your secondary outlets for income.

    • @BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA
      @BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA Yea my goal was to hopefully turn a few non hunters into dedicated deer slayers so I feel that. It's just nice to hope you will make some money in my opinion because like you said, the time that goes into editing alone is insane.

      @SouthernDrawTN the bigger you get the more you can make but build your brand stay yourself and focus on building your merch that matches your brand and it will help build a little extra income
      Also change up and film some different topic videos as they will make higher Rpm’s as well

      My answer would never be to do both it’s whatever you’d get more out of, honestly I believe TH-cam membership gives you ALOT more in return and we actually make less per member than on patreon

    When I watch TH-cam on my kindle tablet, I don’t get ads in the middle of videos, vs when on my phone, I will get ads. I don’t know why. I also skip most of the ads so I don’t know if that counts against channels or not. Or if I skip certain parts in a video. Just some thoughts I’ve had. Thanks for this breakdown!

    • @BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA
      @BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      They have never been very clear but I believe even if you skip the ads they count
      That is interesting about the tablet vs the phone… I wonder if they have a different ad breakdown setup

      ⁠​⁠@@BlueCollarOutdoorsUSAI’ve always found it odd and wondered. It’s nice when I’m falling asleep to not get interrupted by a loud ad lol I also wondered if someone needs to watch the whole video to count more for the TH-camr.

    This comment isn't directed at you specifically, but I'm really getting tired of all the complaining about monetization in YT lately.
    If the goal is to help folks you volunteer - you don't expect any money out of it.
    YT is a great venue to express a point, or to help people. If that is your goal you continue to do it instead of focusing on revenue gain.
    On the other hand, claiming or pretending to be in the above camp while the main goal of content creation is income generation doesn't go far.
    Just another sad example of how people won't do anyting in this western society any more unless there is financial gain for them.
    I would be more concerned about top down censorship imposed on these companies to limit the amount of 2A content - and use the platform to push back against it within their TOS to raise awareness for the community, not to complain about not being able to profit off it; but as stated above that's a tall ask in todays materialistic society.

    • @BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA

      What you don’t realize is the little bit of money I make from this channel allows me to fund more testing in the channel for y’all to use to save your own money
      I’ve spent almost 100k on this channel and haven’t made a dime of positive income
      So speaking for myself this isn’t complaining about monetization it’s just sharing the honest truth about what a channel entails
      but honestly you have zero clue about how much money, time and effort goes into creating content on a channel so would you invest 100k into content that doesn’t yield you a return? If not maybe just don’t judge those who do

    I like how you guys run your channel, but a lot of hunting channels are just destroying public man and they don’t care what happens from what they do. I don’t see that you guys do that just saying there are a lot of them that do it.

    • @BlueCollarOutdoorsUSA

      I only speak for what we do what others do is out of my control, we hunt & film public land hunts but are very careful not to blow the spot up and we still hunt with respect for those we share it with and always will
