- Summer Hang & Hunt! Ancient Velvet Bucks
It's August and my anticipation for the season is ramping up. I pack in a stand and sticks to watch over a soybean field. To my surprise, I film two of the oldest bucks I know about, with their combined age likely being more than 15 years old!

Can we get a Bill Winke reunion this season? You both got newer farms n it would b awesome to c the collaboration
That would be pretty damn cool
I was able to catch up with him for a little bit in Kansas a couple weeks ago. Maybe we can figure out something to do, the time and schedules are always the tough part. I think an early season doe fest at one of our farms would be a blast!
Yes that would be awesome
Nothing triggers me...until I heard those mosquitos! LOL.
Haha! I didn’t notice em really until editing, they were on that mic pretty good
Thanks Jared... by far my favorite to watch and follow. So good in every aspect of this content, I wish you the best and look forward to you bringing us along this season.
Appreciate you Dale, best of luck this season!
Awesome video. I just got my Elevate Rize in and so far I love it. Looking forward to watching you crushing it this season.
Jared is that a new elevate camera arm? Can you do a review of it with the Sony mirrorless camera? Thanks.
^^ Yes please
It is! I'm helping them in the final stages of testing, but it should be available next month. I'll plan on doing a review at that time!
Very nice bucks Jared, think your going to have a great year.
Thanks man, hopefully the same for you!
Sweet! Would enjoy sitting in a tree any time of year, and why not stay honed!
Great footage Jared. What do you use for tick and chigger protection?
Jesus Jared...what a video. Awesome season coming your way I have a feeling. Ryan -Michigan
Ryan- I hope you're right! Hopefully it's a good one for you up there as well, good luck!
Anyone else swatting at mosquitos watching this?
I might have while I was editing it!
Are we gonna get a "Jared Mills" and a "THP" Collaboration this fall? It would be awesome!
That would be fun to reunite with those guys some time!
@@jaredmills It would be some awesome content from both channels.
Are you going to carry that Recurve any this season?
Any thoughts of switching to a saddle?
I got a Tethrd one this offseason and have played with it on a limited basis. It's definitely nice but from my perspective will take some getting used to simply because I've just been so comfortable and confident in a lightweight stand and sticks combo that I haven't been too concerned about switching. I could see some scenarios though where a saddle might be a better choice, so I'll consider it during those times.
So who really won the golf game, you or bill and Jordan ? 😆
We actually tied. The tiebreaker would have been the bow shoot but Bill left before that, something about being scared of getting beat 🤷♂️😂
Man those are some giants! I'm from michigan, so anything over 130" is a giant😁
Shot a 129 in upstate NY last year and it felt huge. Couldn't imagine a 150+ 😂
Haha, it's all relative! I'm sure there's a number of guys that wouldn't consider the bucks in this video giants either, but the age factor is tough to beat!
Shiawassee county here
@@jaredmills Absolutely. It has taken some time but it seems the size of bucks in my area are growing to a more mature level now than when I started hunting 13 years ago. I think TH-cam channels like yours and technology have helped guide folks away from the old myths of once a spike always a spike and the if you don't shoot it the neighbor will mentalities. Do I think I will have a 194" buck walk by this season no but progress is progress. Congrats on your biggest buck to date btw it was an awesome video.
What brand is the camera arm?
It's one that Elevate is working on and I'm helping with in the final stages of testing. If all goes well, it should be available next month, and I'll do a review on it then.
Great to see a preview for the upcoming season! Looking forward to seeing what you get into this fall!
Will be following everything you do. Love the way you hunt and how you're doing there's a new videos. Keep it real like you have been lots of not so good s*** out there yours is really good. Keep up the great work.
What kind of lace up boots are those you were wearing on the scouting sit? I like the looks of them!!
To think that one buck is 8 years plus and still has rack that nice is incredible. Not much decline at all it seems. I’d have him at the top of my hitlist Jared. Even cooler to have the history as well. Can’t wait to watch your solo content this season.
No doubt. Having a deer at that age caliber is very rare, would be cool to catch up with him! Thanks for watching!
What up Jared! Hope your enjoying life and are just as excited for October 1 as I am
Jimbo what's up man, all is good here, just counting down the days!
Nice, going to be a great season…👊🏻🏹
Heck yeah!
Jared I will be up there next fall to help you out with one of those guys if you just let me know what zone to apply for! 🤣🤣Awesome footage!!
You too?
Haha! Let's go!
Nice. Thanks for posting. What electric scooter are you using?
Thanks
Thanks for watching! That is a Spyder made by XiDAR (goxidar.com). I've been using it for 6 or 8 months now and I love it. It essentially lives in the bed of my truck I use it so much.
Cool idea! “Hunt” the summer season. I might have to give it a shot!
Maybe Hang & Film was a better title, but it sure has the feeling of a hunt going in like that!
@@jaredmills call it a dry run 💪
Best channel out there only thing wrong with it is there’s not enough of it lol. Enjoy your content
Haha, thanks man. I'm going to ramp it up, I need to get better at that for sure!
100% agree!
@@jaredmills wasn’t necessarily complaining the last thing ,personally, I would want is for hunting to turn into a job that had a deadline. The pressure would take the fun right out of it
Great bucks Jared!! Your audio is so good I almost had to squat at the mosquitoes that were bugging you. 😅
Haha, you and me both! I didn't notice them until I was editing. Thought about taking it out but figured I've give you guys the full experience! Haha.
Jarod, Love the video's. Just curious. What can we expect from you this season? Daily Blogs or just video's when you kill? Hoping it will be daily blogs. Good luck this season, I'll be watching and rooting for you.
Hey Lois, hope all is well and thanks for the support as always. I don't know that I'll be able to pull off daily blogs but planning on producing more hunts than just the kills for sure. My goal is simply to put out as much good content as possible, with the quality of the content being the priority. I don't want to just produce something just for the clicks or the views, I want it to be worth the time when someone sits down to watch it. So that'll be how I operate throughout the season. Thanks again!
Gonna be a good year friend!
Hi Jared. I’d like to know where to find this little camera arm. I’m trying to seal the deal on an 11 1/2 year old buck that I have photos of since 2016 as a 4 1/2 year old and I’d really like to film again, simply using my iPhone
Awesome! That's definitely one you need to film! This is a new one from Elevate that should be out next month. I'm helping with the final stages of testing it and then I'll plan on doing a full review.
I had never heard of a hang and hunt until a few years ago after watching you do it. I don’t have much time to hunt so I got aggressive on a buck I had been watching 5 years. Hung the stand at 10am and shot him at 6:15pm that evening (1st buck). Now I keep 1 set up just for hang and hunts. Can’t wait to see what you have up your sleeve this year.
Chris- That's awesome! It's pretty cool to see the effectiveness like that. I've obviously seen it prove itself time and time again so like you, I'm awalys going to have a set ready to go. Thanks for the support!
Gotta love those late summer cool fronts. Also here in southern Iowa and have been a deer voyeur also during this front. To be honest I hope the temps go back up until October so we get these temps back then! You never know what you’ll get early season. But, certainly have enjoyed the last few days. Those old bucks were nice but I think you definitely have some stud up and comers that came in at last light. Best of luck this season Jared!
Hey Steven, I think you got your wish, this week will be a tad on the warm side! Haha. Thanks for watching, best of luck!
Nice bucks Jared. In the passed I heard you talk about what licking branch scents you like for starting mock scrapes. Would you mind sharing what products you use?
For sure, I'll have a video out soon about that!
Hey Jared, cool video, you always have such great camera work. I heard you may have lost some kind of golf competition while visiting the Elevated Stand company. Take care and good luck this season.
Thanks Art! And I have no idea what you're talking about, I'm pretty sure it was a tie!
would love a gear review for this season especially cold weather gear
I'll try to do that!
What kind of camera arm is that?
It’s a new one I’m helping with the final testing that Elevate will be coming out with. It should launch next month, I’ll plan to do a review when it does!
@@jaredmills Awesome! Can’t wait!
what kind of 4 wheel electric off-road scooter do you have in the video?
It is an XiDAR Spyder. I love it and use it non-stop. Reach out if you have any other specific questions and I'd be happy to help.
Keep up the great content, I'm looking forward to following your season. Your camera and editing work are outstanding. Loved the Wired to Hunt episode last week too.
Appreciate it Timothy, good luck this year!
been waiting for this video. thanks Jared for rekindling the hunting spirit in me. great looking plot. biggest problem I see, is which one you going to take this year.
I'd say that's a good problem! Thanks for watching as always!
Jared, have you been seeing EHD doing its hideous thing on your farm this summer? I've heard it's been historic in some areas.
I fortunately haven't seen it yet around here, and praying that I don't. As you know, it can be decimating if it hits hard in an area.
Great video Jared ! Getting nice bucks on my farm here in Mid Michigan also . Can’t wait
It'll be here soon!
What camera arm was that?
It's one that Elevate is working on and I'm helping with in the final stages of testing. If all goes well, it should be available next month, and I'll do a review on it then.
Come on down to SC and you can go ahead start hunting, our opener is August 15
That would be fun! Crazy to think about whitetail hunting that early ha.
You had me all excited Jared…right till the end when I heard the Skeeters. Need cooler weather, before I get to worked up
Haha. They actually weren't too bad, either that or I didn't notice them! But yeah I heard them in the mic when I was editing, not the most pleasing sound in the world!
Awesome footage! Can’t wait to see how the season unfolds for you! Good luck👍🏻
Thanks Steven, best of luck to you as well!
Got some donkeys out there. Time to take out that 8 1/2yr old eh? Good luck buddy.
For sure, pretty rare to see them that old!
Great to have you back....Looks to be an exciting season ahead....best of luck
Thanks man, best of luck to you as well!
What boots were you wearing? They look very comfortable!
The ones in this video are the Under Armour Hovr Dawn's that I ordered from MidwayUSA. I've only worn them a few times so far but they are pretty comfy, just hope they hold up!
Great video Jared. What lense do you use for your video. Currently have a Sony A7iii and want to start saving for a good zoom lense.
Hey man. In this video I was using my long 150-600, but on hunts I've been taking the smaller 70-300. If you look at my channel, I recently did a video going over some of that camera gear so that might be helpful on some of that. Holler if you have questions though!
@@jaredmillsthat is great. I have been thinking about adding a 600. I currently run a 18-300 Thanks for the info
Its tuff to watch this as a poor man from Georgia. Not saying i dont have a chance at a booner this season, just wish i wasnt jealous.
It's all relative for sure. There's guys out there that wouldn't consider these bucks big too. But I'd say if you could have a chance at a booner, you're doing about as well as almost anyone in the country!
@jaredmills I've recently lost my permission behind my house, where the big deer grow in the state, had it 20 years this season. But i do have two bucks on my lease that made it through the season that are close to county records, one is still young enough to grow, and the other i believe is right at the breaking point of past prime. Those two bucks arent setting records but you know as well as i do, its more about age structure. Thanks for the reply. Im gunna send you a couple pictures on instagram, i just followed you a couple days ago.
GOOD LUCK Jared
You too Richard!
It's August and those bucks are acting super alert.
For sure. That's certainly a reflection of their age. But also, the first buck spotted me about the same time I spotted him when I was walking in, so he was naturally on alert. I was lucky to be able to kneel down and get a few seconds of footage of him.
What camera arm is that?
It's a new one that should be available next month. I'm helping with the final testing for Elevate, and will plan on doing a full review once it's ready.
💪😎
How many of these are on your radar to target?
Hey Moe- good question. I expect to find some bigger antlered deer to chase for sure, but these two and their age would make it very hard for me to pass them I think. We'll see what things look like in a month or two!
What sticks are you running for hang n hunts?
I'm using the Ascend sticks from Elevate. They're light and pack nicely to the stands. They have both 17" and 20", I was running the 17's in this video.
@@jaredmills why are sticks so stinking expensive 😭😂
i want to know more about your scooter
It's an XiDAR Spyder. I've been using it since late winter and it's killer. It pretty much lives in the bed of my truck now. Obviously great for access but I've even used it this food plot season for mowing and fertilizing. Reach out if you have specific questions, I'd be happy to help.
how would it be with steep terrain?
@@jaredmills
*Promo SM*
One thing i did to save weight was switch all my steel caribeaners to aluminum rock climbing ones. On both my harness and linemans belt
Good tip!
Like your videos but have to laugh at using electric bikes and skateboards to deer hunt. All the big boys use them now. Just dont say about how much work deer hunting is. Just makes me chuckle. Its like no one can walk anymore.
Probably way more work than you realize once you start getting into it like these guys do.
Electric bikes are absolutely ok on Private, but I do despise them on public.
@Jay-hu1pc I have to walk 1/2 thru standing corn with seed,water,chemicals just to put in small no-till plot. We use equipment and tractor at friends place. It's not work !!! I work thru the day at a job, I don't need another job after work called hunting. When I get to the point I can't manually do labor for hunting its when I quit. Just like Owen from Midwest whitetail is doing, not running cell cam option on camera to go back to old school. To each their own but hunting is never work.
@@johnarnold2278 if it’s how they make a living then it would be called work. I work full time doing as an electrician all year round. I also get the chainsaw out doing tsi throughout the winter on my land and planting native grasses and trees trying to build wildlife habitat along with planting foodplots. It’s alot of work. You can have fun doing work to. But these guys get a lot of bs about killing big deer all the time and it wouldn’t happen if they didn’t put in alot of time and work.
@Jay-hu1pc they should kill big bucks with the area they're hunting. It's just seems it's too easy. Grab your scooter and cell cams and go kill big deer. I used to farm so I understand having a full time job after my full time job. I enjoyed spring and fall way more in the woods than sitting in a tractor so I gave it up. It's just my perspective but I don't put too much on celebrity hunters as hunters. It's a show for the masses to watch. All the gadgets make me laugh, that's all.
Your video content and editing is sweet. You should do branded content for whitetail institute, muzzy, bass pro hoyt whoever has good product that needs placement.
Thanks Travis, I appreciate that!
Keep the vids coming man those some nice bucks but i bet your looking for a bigger one
Certainly hoping to have some bigger ones to chase but these guys' age would make for a super tough pass. We'll see, thanks for watching!
