Rumor has it when Dan was born, he drove his mom home from the hospital and went straight to the swamp to start scouting
Original
I heard he was born in the swamp and his Mom left him there
Been scouting ever since
His first words were … oxbow , bedding area , points , draws , ribs and scrapes and yes he was born in the swamp , when he was in the womb he made his mother walk to die bedding to drop him when he came out he said thanks mom I was born to hunt baby now GIT
The Robertson wear Dan Infalt Pajamas. Dan wasn’t born, he pulled himself out of the womb because the small amount of light that hit his eyes showed signs of a mutant near by.
I like THP, I like Sturgis, I like Eberhart but I love Dan's shirts.
Lol they are great
Goosebumps when you said, your going back in November and finishing the job!! Let’s go Dan!!!
😂😂😂 about the second time Dan tugs on his shirt, because it's way too small, I couldn't stop laughing. Dan is so willing to get his message across with his t-shirts, he doesn't even care if they fit. I bet he saw that shirt, but they didn't have it in his size, and he's like, I don't care, I gotta have it for one of my videos. Love the shirts man 😂 even if they don't fit.
Most of the shirts are sent to me... Im not as thin and hot as some think... lol.
Dan, you are the best because you are so relatable for hunters. I've had many similar experiences and I tell my story and people look at me like I did something wrong.
Sometimes we do everything right, and it just doesn't work out.
Sorry for the lost buck.
Dan, this very thing just happened to me Wednesday night. My arrow hit good, huge mule kick but I stuck it in the opposite shoulder. No blood for the first 50 yards, no arrow, no hair. But huge amounts of blood out of both sides for about 125 yards and then the blood disappeared 20 yards into a bean field. I have been waiting years for a shot on a big buck. I have not given up the search. Best of luck to you on yours.
This is why Dan's video/stories are so valuable....Even HE has bad days out in the woods....Even HE has days when he sees nothing....I thought it was just me. Some people think that finding and killing a deer is easy. Those people aren't hunters. Even Dan's failures are valuable because of what we can learn from them.
You always say something in your videos that I think all of us can relate to at one time or another through our hunting lifetime...
Dan, even though I wasn’t hunting with ya u could feel what you where feeling as you where explaining. Thanks for the realness of that experience
Dan ive been hunting my grandmother's 40 acre property in NY for 10 yrs, we have had luck with 100" class bucks but only a couple in those ten yrs. We don't have many giants that exist. My first yr bow hunting in the 11th yr on the property I sat on a funnel that is just enough off the backyard to be low impact with a west wind, I hunted the same stand for the entire first 2 weeks of November with the correct wind knowing a big buck would eventually come through the funnel. It happened on the last morning of bow season at 830am and I took a rushed shot at 30 yards while he was walking. Easily a 140" buck. I knew it was high and back on the deer. But he could barely walk out of sight. We gave him 3.5 hours and then started blood trailing a ton of blood. After about 200 yards the blood turned into drips. 6 hours later and a mile up the hill on the other side of the valley we lost blood. The dog tracker didn't want to help. Which is understandable. I gave up hunting that yr and walked around wearing orange during gun just looking in the most likely places he would go. We even found one of his sheds while searching. He would have been the buck of a lifetime. I couldn't sit in the same stand like I did for that many days ever again.
Hey Dan, it sounds like if your camcorder has exposure settings that it is set too low. If you are running a Sony Handycam, see if you can reset in menu options or using a ballpoint pen. Not sure what model you have, but -> Press the PROGRAM AE button to set the IRIS (aperture), gain (ISO), shutter speed and exposure to [Auto].
Smashit!
Keep your head up Dan. We all run into a string of unfortunate events in the woods at some point. I know you’ll redeem yourself in November and excited to see how you make it happen.
Dan is putting in the work for our education/entertainment! Dan's a Beast!
The best hunting channel on TH-cam!!! Thanks Dan
Lesson like these is what keeps us thriving as Hunters!!!
Keep us updated
Just got a buck today, 5 yards from the ground, nice 9 point 2.5 year old
Dan, check to make sure the filter switch on left at back didn't get pushed it has caused problems to many before.
Not having a functioning camera sucks, but Dan is a hell of a story teller and i was captivated. "THE 170 THAT DID NOT GET FOUND". That is not click bait, but Dan continues to post awesome real life stuff. I always find something useful when Dan shares his hunts.
Thanks for sharing the good and the bad along with the grind. That is definitely hunting.
Great stuff glad I found ya channel, I got my biggest this year using your bedding tips
Good stuff. Love is that you real about the situation. Many of us have similar stories. Always good to know we're not alone. As much as that sucks😮😊
That's the part that gets you questioning what your doing wrong and can be really frustrating. Here in wis you with the hopes of seeing a couple during a sitting, and when you see nothing it really shakes your confidence. But I keep going because quitting is not an option
Man what a cursed hunt. I wonder if you hit a branch or something. I would try sending the footage to someone. Perhaps it could be edited and recovered.
Obviously that story wounds are soul and hurts are hearts, when so much is put into this. Wonder if you tryed dog tracker on this one . Obviously couldn't of hurt and maybe come out with the gold ✨️
I hope you left a trail cam out there. You might get a picture of your deer with an arrow in him.
I was hoping the re-release had a happy ending.
Good luck this week to all 🏹
Nobody like Dan. Nobody. Great story.
Big thanks to you for self-filming for us. Big risk.
Nice shirt, looks like it’s painted on you. Lol 👍🇺🇸
It was a "little" tight... lol
@@thehuntingbeast lol 👍
If you bowhunt long enough this will happen at some point. I lost a 10 point that was probably upper 140s, which might as well be a 200 class in WV, I hit directly in the shoulder and tracked for nearly a mile, searched for days to no avail. Worst feeling in the world but it happens a lot
Why don’t you use lighted nocks since you film your hunts?
Tough break Dan maybe you can get back out there and see it again! I don’t run a top of the line camera I use a GoPro. Hope you can figure out what’s wrong with it ! Goodluck! Maybe it went bad…
I look forward to your shirts more than the talking! 😆.
That's a bummer for sure, hope you get a nice one in November!
I hope you get a giant when you go back
I see those cave beds all the time
Luv the CNN shirt Dan classic...
Great video the best so far this season
All of us have been there Dan,yes it sucks but it happens man,maybe he is still alive.
That's hunting right there! Awesome vid Dan!
The Real Deal
On my way home buddy
I don’t have that camera but I’d guess it’s in the iso settings. Might google how to adjust iso on that specific camera and give that a try. Another great video though Dan
Dan, I have the same camera and I can see that the ND filter switch on yours is set to auto, if for some reason that sensor is not working correctly, it could be turning on the ND filters. I would switch it to manual and try that. The other suggestion I have is, if the shutter speed (buttons under screen) is on manual it could be set really high and causing it to look so dark.
There is a button on the side that says "Gain/ISO" and when I press that I seem to get lighting back?
@@thehuntingbeast on mine it has 3 buttons in a row Iris, Gain/iso, shutter speed. you want shutter speed, you can adjust it with the little wheel in front of those buttons. you want to be at 50 or 60 for shutter speed
Freakin Love the Shirt Dan!
Support from Southern Indiana
Man, i love that you do all this self recording for me, us. But it hurts my heart when you do everything just for us and miss your opportunity. haha, i laugh, but i would rather see no footage and a dead deer for you. Thanks for the continuing teaching moments though.
Most on pt shirt game on the interwebs! 😂
You will get him in November Dan.
Give that camera back to josh .
I would definitely not have the patience to try to video a hunt by myself, I'm just not that coordinated,even without a camera i have had big misses or bad hits on 2 very large bucks, 1rst one i missed a monster on opening day of gun season at 60 yards broadside with my dads old smoothbore 16 gauge shout gun with a slug like a dummy i hadn't shot the gun before i went,just young and dumb.never made that mistake again .2nd one i was crawling up in a ladder stand beside on the edge of a logging road in extreme northern Missouri.( 15miles south of iowa line) the tree was small and the wind was blowing it back and forth and out dteps probay at least a 170 inch buck broadside at 100 yards tried ty time my shot with the wind when i came across his shoulder area. and hit him square in the belly. he ran downhill 200/300 yards barely any blood at all jumped fence onto neighbor's land that absolutely refused to let me look. this was with my 50 cal. muzzleloader.a i got was a pile of corn where he had been standing. heartbreaking
Dan done eased into the thp boys buck nest spot
doubt it
Great content!! Thanks Dan!!
Dan, do you not worry about spooking deer and potentially bedded bucks when you're doing all that scouting in season?
Yea... You have to be careful. Mainly looking for a spot for that day or the next morning before they smell your scent or a spot to come back to in rut
Dan your videos are always educational and I learn a lot from them. I know you don’t wanna give your locations away. But I was wondering if there was a way to put incognito map locations on some videos? Anyways great stuff.
Lol I love the shirt. Love the videos. Keep it up
Focus! 100%
“BANG BANG BANG just like CHAI VANG”
Dan, did you figure out the camera?
Yes... There is a button on the side of the camera that says GAIN/ISO and it had been switched to manual mode causing the issue.
@thehuntingbeast that was going to be my recommendation. I'm glad you were able to figure it out.
Looks like Iowa needs help protecting their trees.
love the t shirt!
Probably have to hit the button twice quickly ???
Didnt try calling drone deer recovery?
At 13.03 to 13 09 did you notice a branch hanging vertically between two heavy trails? Was it there a scrape under it?
I was watching this video last night and it just cut out on me...what happened Dan?
There were editing errors so I redid it.
@thehuntingbeast ok, I appreciate the reply. Thanks Dan, good luck to you this year brother!!
Minnesota elk tag
Dan....any Sasquatch sign around that area?👣
I got me 4 preference points for that 🌽 Husking state. I liked hunting Iowa in the 1990's over the counter under $100 no hunters. Haven't been there since 2001. All crippled wearing Depends not expecting so much these days...
Y'all climb those ☠️ trees. That's like the biggest No No there is. Otherwise ya might end up like the tree! 🦌👍🏻💯🇺🇸
I have a sony and i can not figure out how to get it to film in low light. It's a$350 camera and the dam thing will not pick up in low light conditions. I'm very upset. I'm Sure theres a way. I would think. But i don't know it
Mine is a much more advanced camera than that. Probably too advanced for me... lol. On mine it turned out to be a switch under the LCD screen that said Gain/ISO. I got it working now... Actually it was working before I shot the big Wisconsin buck but I had not tested it yet and was scared to have a repeat so I filmed the Wisconsin buck on a potato... (cheap camera)
Should of came to Michigan land of the gargantuans 😂
Your awesome Dan. We all know you have tons of knowledge when it comes to mature bucks. But in my opinion you just overthink it a lot of times.
Sounds like hunting. Always sucks to wound the animal and not be able to find it. I was confident in finding the 6 point i just shot. Tracked it on very pressured public for 5 or 600 ysrds jn circles from it cetting bumped over and over. Never once laid down. Finding big blood clots then small pen tip drops back to big bright red blood then back to no blood and finding just a single track i even followed the dried mud from him tunning through the clear cut. And then i found one foot print with mud and blood where he slipped in it abd sdter that it was 0 blood every where i looked i searched and searched unyil i ran out of light and time
Dream Big brother 🙏
I have been watching your hunting videos for a long time now. I notice that your self filmed 🎥 hunts are not real high quality compared to other TH-cam hunters. From my experience watching your videos you have alot technical issues as well. I realize it's very difficult doing self filmed hunts. I have very simple solution that I always wanted to ask you?
Why don't you just ask your friend Garrett Parhl who does the DIY SPORTSMAN CHANNEL on youtub. His self filmed hunts video quality is second to none from my experience. Plus he's a engineer very smart guy just my POV. I also realize he uses a tree saddle instead of a hang on tree stand but nevertheless his advices would help you improve your experience regardless.
Hunting is a solo sport to me too. Even growing up I would hunt with my dad and from 14 yrs old on, we drive in together and get to the woods and go opposite ways, meet back at the truck for lunch or whatever the plan is. Too many shows or channels show guys sitting in a blind with the whole family chuckling and goofing around and still the corn field has 10 does in it, that's not real life for 99% of hunters .
We’re can I get the hat clip???

First comment let’s gooo great video like always.
Maybe just a Rez tag
I like this dude. Don't agree with a lot he says. But I'll tell him straight out,you can't tell a buck track from a doe track. A small track is not necessarily a doe it could be a small buck. Good show though.
Doe tracks remain pointy as they age, bucks tracks get rounded at the tips as they age, of course a 1.5 er buck is indistinguishable but he’s not hunting young bucks
@@jakesmith6337 Not in all cases. A track just isn't a good indicator of sex. Not one I'd bet a whole season on.
Honest opinion..just an observation..your Camara footage is 80% crap all the time so don't worry about the footage cause your not that guy..just do you
Dan your shirt is snug af lol
No I was first lol
Sounds like a high hit….
Dan, it’s time to spend the money you have been saving on camouflage and vehicles all these years and get better camera equipment. Maybe actually take a backup camera to Iowa?
Really? Im using a top quality sony camera which is why its freaking hard to understand the controls, and I have a back up camera on those trips, but the cameras are very large and bulky and just like I dont carry two bows to my tree I take one camera...
Title was missing a word, 'Land of the TAME giants'. Never seen deer more tame than Iowa deer, all you have to do is watch THP videos to confirm that. Every Iowa video they have deer walk right up to them ( 2 or more people) when they are on the ground or the deer will be right out in the open in the middle of the day.
Hardly...
good hunting techniques might have something to do with the deer being calm.
@@mntnfalkon9943 Good hunting techniques on public land? Not only deer hunters use that, there are bird hunters, waterfowl hunters, squirrel hunters even people just walking their dogs. I suspect so much human activity that the deer do not even bat an eye when someone is walking around much like in any city park.
They know when people are a threat and when they're not. We don't hunt in a city park setting there are hundreds of acres of public hunting grounds of the nastiest brush and tangles. People don't walk there dogs there. Mostly just deer hunters go that far in. Have you hunted Iowa ever?
Wouldn't go as far as calling them tame but definitely different than hunting any other state. If you're from the anywhere in the northeast your comment makes alot of sense
Why’s Dan wearing a women’s small?😂
Most of the shirts are sent to me from viewers... That was one of those. I figure either the sender was someone who visions me as skinny and sexy or its a 400 pound woman who just wears spandex... Either way, I had to cut my way out of it after the video before I passed out from the body tourniquet
@@thehuntingbeast that’s awesome. I’m glad you made it out of that T-shirt, we can’t lose you yet! Btw congrats on that giant you shot in your most recent vid.
Fifth
Wounding a 170 and saying " Oh well, it sucks" is not good enough. Leaving wounded deer all over the country for the sake of getting pictures is not good enough. It feels like it's time to stop.
It happens with or without cameras, with bows and with firearms. That's why it's called hunting and not killing.
a giant is not a 160. this is what is killing iowa big buck hunting
To most ppl that’s a giant
@@bamabowhunter8499part of the issue ..
Don't like that you are using your outdoor hunting show for politics (T-shirts). Im unsubscribing.
Cry more.
Lol has wore them since covid started
Thanks for lettings us know. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
A person has to have a bit of humor to get through life
Bye
Hahahaha
I useta hunt Iowa with locals doing shotgun pushes in the 90's. Those ditches pucker brush pockets along those drainages held a boat load of deer. I started focusing on hour glass pinch points between timber blocks. Bucks Galore but like ya say in the 90's tags were cheap & over the counter. Last time I hunted it took 3 points now it's 5 points for my zone. $$$$$$🥹
Dan you really need to invest in a better camera you need something reliable that you can turn on record and turn your aperture up and down
