- FINALLY Bunjie and I get a shot at a buck over a decoy. This is the final deer hunt of the 2019-20 crossbow season for me and Bunjie.
This is not a channel about shooting big bucks. I don't discriminate--I'll shoot any legal deer. ;)

I want to help make TH-cam the #1 place for quality hunting entertainment. I want to help spread the hunting lifestyle. To do that, I set up this channel to showcase the crossbow and help others film their hunts and get those videos online. So, subscribe to this channel to be entertained and learn more about crossbows and filming in the outdoors.
This channel is about my love of the crossbow, hunting, and the outdoors. I hunt almost exclusively with the crossbow. I love it. Sure, like a lot of kids, I started hunting with a good ol' Model '94 Winchester 30-30 back in the 80's, but drifted away from hunting when I went off to college, law school, and started a family. As my daughter got older, I regained my interest in the outdoors, and I consider myself lucky to hunt on the same property today that I hunted on as a kid. I got the Excalibur Axiom crossbow in 2010 and I haven't looked back. This channel is the result of combining my interest in filming and hunting...
...and music, too! My related channel, Yankee Militia, showcases my music. Some of the music is hunting-related, so check that out, too! The soundtrack for this channel is provided by my band, so the two are intertwined. The albums "Live Free or Kill" and "Zombies Gotta Eat, Too!" are available on Amazon.com and elsewhere.
I’ve been binge watching your videos. I live in Alaska, have hunted my entire life, but this year my son and I are going on our first crossbow hunt this November in Indiana for white tails and can’t wait. I’ve got the Killer Instinct Boss 405. It’s a budget crossbow, but I’m hoping it’ll serve me well and if so I’m sure I’ll upgrade. The reason your channel is my favorite is 1. You’re a family man first and foremost, which I absolutely respect and 2. You’re genuinely excited by each of your deer. It doesn’t have to be a monster buck to get your blood pumping, it’s about the thrill of the hunt. This buck was beautiful, AND getting to harvest it from the ground over Doughy was an experience I’m sure you won’t soon forget. Thanks a lot for taking the time to create and edit these videos.
Thanks! Good luck on your hunt!
Cool footage. Buckley is officially part of the me too movement.
Lol
Hey Rich, exciting content and great videography. Refreshing to see both the misses and the successful video. Thanks 🙏
Great shot and a nice buck love your videos
Hey Rich, just wanted to thank you for teach me everything my old man didn’t.
Congrats, I got my first deer with a crossbow on Oct. 5, 2019.
Congrats ton you!!
@@Deathbybunjie those mock scrapes are a killing machine if done right
I need to get a decoy out in my hunting lanes thanks rich for the awsome videos
I love the video as well as the channel . I have the same bow and absolutely love it. My dad bought it in 2010 and gave it to me. I got my first deer with it in November. Thank you for all of the informative videos please keep them coming. 🦌🏹 ALL HAIL BUNJIE!!!!
Indeed! Thanks and thanks for watching.
Great hunt. I treestand hunt, popup blind hunt. But the most fun I get is hunting from a makeshift brush blind. I took a great 9pt 1 hour after carving out a brush blind overlooking a bean field. It was 2pm and he never knew I was there. Very satisfying knowing you outsmarted them at a game they usually win.
That was great shot placement and timing is everything.
Nice shot Rich! We still have 5 more weeks of crossbow in NJ! 😎
Outstanding performance from the Rage also.
Really nice buck Rich! Looking forward to the virtual deer camp tonight! All hail Bunjie😊
Hey Rich, Great Hunt. I love my Excalibur Crossbow. It got me back in the woods a few years ago and I was fortunate enough to harvest a nice 8 point last year.
That's great, great to hear, good luck going forward.
Congratulations - Rich on a great deer season with your Excalibur Bungie Crossbow.
The was truly awesome
Congratulations! I too have had a great crossbow season, tagged out with my Raven crossbow( Yes I left Excalibur) . As a bonus in rifle season my daughter was able to take her first buck.
Awesome season
I'm late coming into crossbow hunting but glad I stumbled across your videos. I've learned a lot about crossbows and crossbow hunting from you. I know this is an older video but Maybe you'll see my message. Thanks for all the info and entertaining videos.
Glad to have you here good luck!
Love it love it love it !!! Congrats to u and Bunjie.
Can't wait!!!
Congratulations on your hunt. My sister's house its getting pummel by hogs in Parrish Florida. She has a preserve behind her property were they make their way in. Illegally to discharge a firearm. Bought a Barnett Whitetail Pro Str 400 crossbow. Zero it and next day got myself a hog!! I am loving it!
Perfect good luck!
Entertaining and fun to watch as per usual Rich! Thanks for the video!!
An awesome year Rich. Looking forward to 2020.
Congratulations. Bunjie has had a great season!
Good video Rich 👍.
Awesome video, congrats on a great season
Thanks for a great season of videos.
This channel inspired me to get a crossbow a few months ago. and i had success with it too 10 yards on the ground no blind. Congrats to you on the great hunting season #teambunjie
Great episode. The camera looks great 👍
Good shot🏹🦌
I recommend you invest in StealthCam trailcameras. The higher end models are no-glo so at night the deer don't notice the cam flash. Also you can mount the camera higher on the tree to hide it better from the deer. Btw great buck with an even better story 👍
Thanks for this, I really appreciate it.
Great shot! I have been thinking of using a decoy, this video says I should. Congratulations brother!
It doesn't always work, but man when it works it is a blast! It really helps keep the deers attention away from you, as well.
Beautiful hunt, congrats!
Great video and a great shot. What a way to end a good season. I’ve managed two so far this year but really need another one for the freezer. Only 5 days left to hunt here in va, fingers crossed I can get it done.
Fingers crossed, best of luck to you!
I dont want to miss this
Awesome hunt. Congratulations on the buck. Thanks for sharing. I'll be out tomorrow morning with my crossbow. Hoping something with antlers come by.
I’m jealous. Sitting in my Oklahoma blind….watching your vids 😮💪
LOL good luck
Great job !!! Thanks for sharing your hunt!!! All hail Bungie!!! Checking in from Indianapolis Indiana.
Been watching your videos for a bit and enjoy them, this is my first year hunting and I actually got a doe. I will keep watching as the videos are entertaining and informative as well. Be blessed and stay safe.
Awesome hunt man! Kind of saddening that the season is winding down to an end.
Congrats Rich !! Cool video. Great self filming job also. 👍🦌
Well Rich...I ended up buying a Crosspoint Specialist XL 370 for less than the pawn shop Axiom. So far it shoots great, OK for my 1st crossbow. I'm a little Leary about stuff at pawn shops...especially if I don't know if the bow was dry fired, dropped, etc etc. I have been playing catch up on your videos..keep it up, and thanks.
Wonderful video and grats to you and bunjie. Thank you for sharing
Thanks and thank you for watching!
Nice buck Rich. You had a great year. Congrats!
Hey Rich glad you finished the season on a good note . Really enjoyed watching your video`s you taught me some things also still have yet to get a Buck with my new crossbow but the season is still going on had some Pacemaker wire problems got about 2 weeks to go before I can hit the woods again . We have the same restriction here in Florida also has to have at 3 points on or more on one side all being over 1 inch each . Ok great video can`t wait till the next one comes out .
This is my favourite hunting show simply because it's more realistic to what hunting really is. It's not some high fence operation where a celebrity hunter is shooting some dumb big buck that's been feeding off a feeder his whole life. He's not always successful and he learns along with you, and when he shoots even a small doe it's more enjoyable and feels more real than those guys holding their 200 inch livestock bucks.
Congratulations Rich in a stellar season! Great seasonal ending video!
Thanks, Ron, I have your email in my inbox and I'll be looking at that soon! Hope all is well.
Hey Rich, congratulations on your Pa buck. It feels good when a plan comes together. Great video and you really had a Kick A.. season! Happy New Year my friend.
Congrats Rich, great video
Congratulations!!
Awesome video! Congratulations
Outstanding dude! Great season!
Awesome stuff for sure! 👍👍👍😃✌️
Beautiful footage and hunt !
That was a great quartering shot!
Congrats
Great Video man!! love hunting with my cross bow
Congrats on an awesome season!
What a year you've had I've enjoyed every minute watching God bless and HAPPY New Year...
Congrats on the good buck!
He reminds me of (John candy) I I like this guy .down to earth and extremely knolagable
Nice shoot man!
Take care ✋
A decoy is the only thing I have never used. Only reason I don’t is where all I hunt is game or public land. Just worry about another hunter, thinking I’m a deer. I have looked at decoys that fold up, but they don’t like life like. Wish a company would make a blow up decoy. Also I enjoy useing arrows I make up. All hail Bunjie and Bunjie jr. gods speed to you all
Congrats on your very successful season! I am gonna have to start travelling around more to different zones here since where I am hunting now I am only allowed one tag a season and it does not take long to fill it 😉👍🏻
That sounds great, can't wait to watch it yeah, hope you video it, good luck!
Not in Michigan at least 3 counties . Wife wanted to try to hunt she got a good doe
Dave Vollhardt man Michigan got lucky 3 county’s got to hunt does only till jan 29 so mad my property is not included 😩😩
I missed the premier. :-(
Nice looking buck. It's going to eat good.
Congratulations, great video. For the decoy you could drop the long o sound and call her Dolly.
Not a bad name!
Nice glad you cought a buck this year with bunjie too bad we got 5 days of hunting left 😩
Got put camera up over 6 ft and camo it . And definitely got to use no glo and have it away from the trail not right on it
Man you had them working the scrapes good. I've never tried using mock scrapes or rub lines but I may give it a whirl. Some guys swear by mock scrapes.
Waiting👍
Now that’s how you get it done what do you think of the taccam
Great video Rich. The suit you were wearing was/is it a cammo waterproof two piece with thermal liner for winter work. We can't get stuff like that in the UK. Especially if your big. I'm 6 XL and it's impossible to gear up like I'd like
Tell me about it, lots of options here but fitting me? Tough lol
love your videos man i know youve done a winter maintance video but i was wondering how you have kept bunjie going for a decade
That's something i'm discussing in my book that should come out this summer. seriously, writing that now. :)
Congratulations- what broadhead did you use? Thanks
rage crossbow hypodermic 100 grain
Can’t beat a 20yrd shot. Nice job Rich!
Hey Rich, just love the videos, that is exactly how I hunt. Still hunting on the ground, public land, no blind, no feeder, etc... took a button buck at 21 yards and a 3 year old doe at 22 yards this year. Yes, it is very important that one stays absolutely still when on the ground, I use a "hammock seat" to tie up to a tree, try to "brush it in" best I can, and wait for the deer to come to me. Of course, you try to play the wind as much as possible. Haven't seen much since Thanksgiving, been way too hot here in Texas. Have some videos in my channel also. Won't give the name, this is your channel, not mine. Anyway, appreciate your effort and work,
BTW, am thinking of trying "saddle hunting" next season, what do you think?
There is a lot about saddle hunting that I like. However, I was never a Boy Scout and I am not very good tying knots! Let me know how you make out!
What fletching jig is that?
Hey Rich, I'm just getting into crossbows and love your videos. I just found an Axiom at the pawn shop for $275. It looks to be in great shape...should I snag it ?
Keep rockin bro
Up to you, it would be nice if you could shoot it first, I love mine but maybe I got lucky.
@@Deathbybunjie Thanks for responding....Yes, it would be nice to shoot, considering I don't know if previous owner took care of it. I went to look at it again, and it has some fraying on the string I didn't notice before, and the rail looks way more scratched up than it should. There's plenty of time till next deer season, so I think I'll save some more coin and get a new one. I really enjoy your vids and am learning a lot before I even get out there. Rock on...
Hey man, I love your channel. I got my first deer with a crossbow in 2018 from the ground in a ghillie suit. I watched a ton of your videos before going out. I'm heading back to our property in Indiana.
I'm rambling - My question is how high do I place the mock scape? It looks like head high?
ramble on! lol, 4 or 5 feet but i've had better luck, it seems, at 5 or so, seems like they like to reach for it
@@Deathbybunjie Great thanks man.
2 questions for you sir.....
What brand of decoy is that?
What broadhead did you use on this hunt?
That was a rage 100 grain crossbow hypodermic. I've changed my gear an awful lot since then LOL, different arrows, Broadhead and crossbow. I am pretty sure the decoy is a primos.
Love the Blafk camo tou are wearing out of the field. Where ya get that and what's it called?
What do you think about deer rack related regulations in your area? Imho seems unrealistic and can cause a lot of mistaken kills. During the last half hour of legal light you can barely tell if a mature buck is even a buck at all, let alone counting the points. I shot an 11-point buck that I thought was a doe until he got within 45 yards of me! And I thought he was a small 8-point until I actually recovered him. Also the rack on a deer doesn't always tell the maturity of that buck, I've seen plently of small messy racks on huge old bucks meanwhile I've seen 8 points on bucks that looked barely 2 years old. That's why in Ontario you can get split tags (buck/doe tag) so hunters aren't penalized for an honest mistake from ridiculous expectations. Just my two cents.
I'm okay following antler Point restrictions if they are in place. It seems odd to me that sometimes people complain when you shoot a deer that is totally legal, however. If it's too small, change what is legal LOL. Some people are never happy haha.
@@Deathbybunjie Exactly! Someone always has something negative to say when you're a successful hunter. It's jealousy, they're just bitter they either saw no bucks or were foolish enough to pass on one that size. They couldn't give two licks about "what's good for the population" in reality they only want to kill mature bucks for the rack (which is why they go off the antler point system and not the deer's weight). I guarantee you if older bucks didn't grow antlers they'd be killing every spike they laid eyes on. It's legal so they can kiss it.
Congratulations on your buck. I’m curious as to why a single hunter shoots 7 deer in one season. Do you eat that many? Or have deer over populated your hunting area .
One of those was a Sika deer, only about 15 lb of meat. All of the meters in my freezer or in canning jars. We started making jerky this year, also. My family has gone through four deer a year on several different years. 7 is the most I've ever shot, and I doubt we'll get through all of it in one year but we'll sure try LOL. It is vacuum-sealed and in jars, so should last 2 years if need be.
Set the decoy quartering away :). Awesome set up. Sometimes ya just gotta think outside the box. Hit was high. Bet you cut some big arteries under the spine. That doesn't take long. Your decoy may require therapy.
Yep a little turn on decoy = less hard quarter away shot. Lots of fun thanks!
When did PA begin permitting ozonics? I missed that.
We joined the modern era in 2017 lol
@@Deathbybunjie missed that. I hadn't checked in years
Hey rich, I have watched all of your videos, congrats on the awesome season! I also live in pa and love the way you show off our state! Looking forward to many more of your videos
hey Rich love that shirt where did you find?
btw the one you're doing the commentary with
that is a special edition Jimmy Big Time shirt, last of its kind lol
You could have not asked for a better shot and outcome
I bought a house in Wilkes-Barre Plains area are you close to there and would you let me hunt with you ?
Keep an ear out for our Meat & Greet, we did it last year and if we do it again it will be a fun time
Transgendeer. I use the same Excalibur crossbow.
