This guy is the real deal, not a store bought hero. A true legend who earned his stripes. More Big woods knowledge than All those Hollywood hunters who laugh at him for dating the fat chick. I'm with you Dan, rather wade through muck in a swamp than sit pretty in the side by side
I just started hunting whitetail 5-6years ago. I've been obsessed since my first kill. My dad has beast hunted since I was a kid. I wish I had gotten into it when I was a kid(I'm 37 now) I've watched and listened to almost all of your content. Ive learned alot and I appreciate all of your knowledge. Thank you for all that you've done for us hunters that are open minded and eager to learn.
I started hunting 6 years ago and am 39. Totally self taught (besides reading and watching this channel) and just shot my first two deer this year, one of them a decent 8 pointer with my bow. I too am now obsessed
WOW! Just found your channel!! Thanks for changing my entire mindset about how to hunt the big bucks on my farm. Changed my total mindset - from now on I’m going after the fat chick!! Can’t believe how “routinely” I have hunted, sitting in the wrong stand, a lot of times for an entire day waiting on the big guy to come to me! But I also paid close attention about how to approach his area with great caution not to spook him. I’m in my 70’s, hunt alone, and now as excited about this season as I ever have been!! I think these “canned” deer hunting shows on TV, have led to far more disappointing hunts than anything else.
Right on dave 70 years wow i hope i can hunt at your age . And ive said the same hunting shows and gadgets have made hunters not have a clue besides the smart ones
R.I.P. Dave. Thank you Dan for all the knowledge you have given us. Been a long time follower of the Beast, just wanted to give you a random shoutout even though I watched this video before.
No free rides!! Got that America!? Great videos as always and such great lessons, I don't care how much experience a hunter has you can always learn! Thanks Dan!!
Couldn't have said it better. Learned it from you and shot an 8 pt here in michigan within 200 yards of a parking area and had 2 other hunters push deeper before I got in the tree. I could see all the vehicles and the buck was headed straight for the trucks. Don't always have to go deep just gotta be where the deer are.
They make the rockin' world go round! The mistake I made this year(twice actually) was standing in my treestand away from the trunk when the deer is on my right sneaking behind me. I should have hugged the tree with my back in hopes that he didn't outline me and waited until he was out in front with better back cover. Awesome vid Dan. Thanks for sharing your experiences!
My father was always the guy who seemed to hunt closer to the road or tell me I should be sitting behind an old barn when I was the one tromping miles out to hunt.Obviously he had more luck than and I finally learned but with the help of your videos and tactics it has completely changed the way I see things out there!!!...Good stuff buddy!!!
If memory serves, there are some pics of a barn with buck heads hung on the side of it, , but I believe they were not his biggest ones. It's an older pic, this was a number of years ago. I may be mixing that pic up, but I think they were Dan's bucks that didn't make the "living room cut". Again, I could be mixing it up in my head. I also think I did see a video of his indoor collection at some point over the years.
I could listen to these story’s and advice all day long. Good stuff Dan you the man. You made my Monday morning at work a lot less boring. I couldn’t watch but I listened like a podcast 👍🏻💪🏻
Dan Thanks brother. So much good teaching. I have 95 acres in CT and am just learning how to hunt. I love your aggressive approach. I will take all your advice.
At 38:55 ---> the first moment you get/have an "ethical good shot"...thanks for emphasizing "ethical" Dan. Somedays I think concepts/ideas like "ethical" and "common sense" are things ya just don't heard mentioned anymore.
I haven't figured it out completely yet but I've just started watching this guy and for some reason I really like this guy. Not all celebrity hunters are good hunters but most of em have that "it factor " that gets people to watch. I could harvest bucks like them too if I had access to hunt where they get to hunt and those hunts alot of times take 2 weeks to get and it's not how it's portrayed on tv. But this guy has both the it factor and he's a good hunter. Keep up the videos bud and I'll keep watching!!!!
I'm hunting a spot 300 yards from the parking lot. Bucks crawling all over me. I've seen more bucks than does and two nice ones to boot. Sometimes overlooked spots can be gems
Dan, I know when you hunt the Cattail swamps you sometimes (always?) use deer trails for access. Do you only use the trails on the downwind side of the spot, in essence access on the opposite side of where you expect Bubba to come from, so you don't care about your scent on the downwind side trails? Maybe a stupid question.
I access hunting spots in cattail marshes using deer trails, because its the only way you can access... Other areas I avoid deer trails most of the time. Im always considering both my ground scent and airborn when accessing. Every situation is different, but it worth the effort to spook as few deer as possible.
1 of the greatest quotes ever. Dan is exactly what I needed. If you want something, put the work in. Learn everyday, and get better. Earn it. Thanks for everything Dan.
Do you do property consulting? We have a bunch of drone maps from 200 ft in high resolution of our property and the surrounding area (Michigan swamp). We would love to get a WWDH (where would Dan hunt) perspective! $$$
You have to keep in mind that deer are like big rabbits they will get into the thickest cover, and you are nothing going to go in after them you have to set up on the edge and catch them moving.
First buck I ever killed I climbed up in a dogwood tree... it was the only tree left in a clear cut. But was just high enough to see out over the fresh cut. 👍 what ever works is best 😂
Always open my eyes I have a nice split brow 12 I've been playing cat and mouse with all year. Living right behind the neighbors that is also a peta member so not only do I have to deal with the wind the buck and everything else I gotta deal with the anti hunter next door.
I found a whopper of a buck 35 years ago that bedded in a picker patch 60 yards from a house and 20 yards from the home owners dogs house. He actually had him a watch dog. When I tracked him in there the dog busted me and the buck ran through the yard across a country road and swam a cross a river. I should have had a partner bump him while I waited in a canoe.
Subdivision across the rd from me is full of big bucks they mess up once in while when a doe gets hot but it's rare usually they will keep em in that 10 or 15 acres
It may be just me but I get confused on wind direction. I hear north wind and think the wind is blowing north only to get to my spot and find it’s blowing south from the north. Am I the only one confused by this. Maybe a video covering this would be helpful
At least you don’t have to worry about sliding your arm out from under them in the morning without wakin em up! They’re also better for pushing your car to bump start it! (True story)
MAn i really need help deciding which sticks to buy the first time around. Im technically a first timer to the mobile stand game, any tips would be appreciated... i plan to try an aider as well.. im about 5"9" 140lbs..
Pre-order the stand now and delivery starting June 2021 with first orders filled starting with earliest orders received. Dan says machine shop is making new sticks now and won't be a whole lot longer, and those get delivered in a few days once in stock.
So what you’re saying is, fat chicks can’t set up in small trees. So when your lady asks you, “does this tree stand make me look fat”, the answer is No! 🤣
Yo Dan or Josh or whoever, I'm finding so many buck beds, in the thickets. No trees, one or two but they stand out like sore thumbs. I can either choose to set up in one of them trees, which I think is a complete mistake. Because they stand out so much. Or choose, on the ground, thicket type stuff. Find me a bushy, as much as possible, set up. Have any thoughts?
Not sure... We would like to have him on here all the time, but he prefers to just show kill videos and nothing that will tip people off to what or where he is hunting. .
I didn't even watch the video yet it's just so confusing it's an hour long video with the thumbnail being of a hunter and a dead deer and the title is "dating a fat chick" what the hell is going on in this video 😂😂
True story. My buddy kills his deers 100 hundred yards straight up this hill its steep. But the thing is its government land. And he gets their before day break. By noon hes done dropped one. While listen to campers playing lynrd cshynrd. And cooking and kids swimming the creek Been doing it for years. Its just a opening they travel year after year. But everybody thinks thier"s nothing their and he don't say a word all public land. Every body thinks you need to go that mile deep. And I'm not saying there isn't deer a mile deep. Just watched this video. And it remind me of my buddies spot. Good hunting to all.

For real
They answered lol!

Dan is always talking outside in the snow in a t-shirt. I love it!
One of my favorite channels. Thanks for all the great content

Hey listen, we cast shade in the summer and provide warmth in the winter lol. You’re gonna want one.

"Don't let that deer be a democrat", to GD funny.
You should do a trophy room show on all the big bucks you shot we want to see them Dan!🤘🤘
Agreed. I suggested that he be on whitetail cribs
@@adamdrouin2295 Him and Andrae would be awesome
That would be one long ass episode of whitetail cribs 👌👌🤘

Great episode brother oh ya thanks for all the info on tide we just got my heated vest works great..
Saying your a "lilll tiny profile" made me laugh! Thanks for sharing your content Dan the Man!
I'm hunting a spot 300 yards from the parking lot. Bucks crawling all over me. I've seen more bucks than does and two nice ones to boot. Sometimes overlooked spots can be gems
Come on Dan, the deer are entitled to live on your farms aren't they? Great video!!!
If I'd have known this was gonna be this long I would have gone and got some Dot's pretzels first.
Love the longer videos! Makes it worth the wait!
I have seen deer tracks in front off our truck after we came back to go back to camp several times.

Alot of great information right here..thanks Dan we appreciate all you do..
I gotta tell ya your 1 of the guys I like, especially when you are with THP. Keep it up sir, keep the kid going too. Jonesy.
Scouting in the old grocery getter 😆 AWESOME VID DAN😁😊 👍
I love your videos man you do a damn good job trying to teach hunters new things !!
Best hunting seminar intro in the history of humanity. The rest wasn't bad either.
I love them cedars! Good video dan ,good info everytime!
Don’t let the deer be a Democrat he has to pay to live there. LMAO absolutely loved that statement. Knew there was a reason I liked this guy.
NO FREE RIDES
Lol. I actually paused the video to make the very comment you made.
🤣 I loved it!

So you went out and got skunked.
I like your tip of sitting on the hang-on towards the tree.
Jesus loves you!
Dan rockin the liberal hivemind shirt. Three scoops baby!
LOL Scouting camo; you need to market this.
Overall Best Video to date. You are #1.
LOL just made it to the sign-off line. Love it!
Ton of wisdom here......just wished you hadn't had told everybody about it! LOL
First buck I ever killed I climbed up in a dogwood tree... it was the only tree left in a clear cut. But was just high enough to see out over the fresh cut. 👍 what ever works is best 😂
Tidewe.......All made in China 🇨🇳, unfortunately. Great product but I prefer buy American made
Great Video, I learned a lot ; thanks !
Chuckling and shaking head.
We’re all going to miss Dave after years of watching Dan I got attached to Dave also
Always open my eyes I have a nice split brow 12 I've been playing cat and mouse with all year. Living right behind the neighbors that is also a peta member so not only do I have to deal with the wind the buck and everything else I gotta deal with the anti hunter next door.
Dan saddle hunting out of a stand. Beast mode style.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Even with this incredible amount of information 95% of ppl who see this will be in the same stand locations they hunted before seeing this.
Yep...
Excellent video Dan,what single pin sight is that your using
True American badass love ur videos bro
Love that shirt... Liberal Hivemind.. 3 scoops!!!
I found a whopper of a buck 35 years ago that bedded in a picker patch 60 yards from a house and 20 yards from the home owners dogs house.
He actually had him a watch dog.

This video is one of the best!
No free rides!!
Amount of commercials are ridiculous
Subdivision across the rd from me is full of big bucks they mess up once in while when a doe gets hot but it's rare usually they will keep em in that 10 or 15 acres
Dan for president...No Free Rides!!!
Hi Dan can you please make a video about your bow set up
I knew I was going to like this video in the first 2 minutes.😂😂😷
God I miss the old school long videos
Great video Dan. I think I dated lots of fat chicks. 😂. And they are very over looked spots.
I hear you have Sandhills flying 18:30
Thanks to this I think I know where a big one is on my property a place that is real thick butts up to houses
Dan, how much did that buck weigh? Like 3 or 400 lbs?
Would give anything to have Dan come n hunt these mature northern Adirondack booners , I'm chasing
Oh geez my little sis Donna lee is gonna see this dating the fat chick stuff and start to think she has a chance with Rick again
DAN IS THE MAN ... HAMMER OF THE WOODS 💪🦌 🏹
A hour hunting beast video yes please 😂
It may be just me but I get confused on wind direction. I hear north wind and think the wind is blowing north only to get to my spot and find it’s blowing south from the north. Am I the only one confused by this. Maybe a video covering this would be helpful
Easterly/east wind means "from the" east. Eastward wind means "towards the" east.
Dan have you guys tried the Tidewe no glo cams? If so what did you think?
I just got one, have not tried it yet.
I wonder if this theme might offend some female hunters ? Have you tried wearing a ghillie suit in the tree with less cover ?
Is there any footage of that parking lot buck?
No, that was 30 years ago...
Thicker than a snicker great vid!!
This man is Awesome love his Vids
At least you don’t have to worry about sliding your arm out from under them in the morning without wakin em up! They’re also better for pushing your car to bump start it! (True story)
Think thin when your in those skinny trees.
Who won't the Tidewe jacket???
Im waiting for a response from the winner... If I dont get a response I will pick a new winner.

Whats the wait time on the sticks and stand?
Pre-order the stand now and delivery starting June 2021 with first orders filled starting with earliest orders received. Dan says machine shop is making new sticks now and won't be a whole lot longer, and those get delivered in a few days once in stock.

The cover buck bottomed out our 300 pound scale. It was never officially weighed.
Don't let that doe be a Democrat! Freaking priceless!

Is there going to be any vids from Joe this year Dan?
