Default My two year drought is over!!

This past Saturday, I managed to drop a little spiker whitetail with a great shot, and took a couple grouse home too. Was a great day!!

Yes, that is the same gun! She’s got a total of 5 kills under her belt since I have taken over ownership. It is a great gun, and I still cannot believe the great deal we agreed to. I rave about it every time I show the gun to someone new. Hope you are doing well. Thanks for watching!!

Nice video kyle. I can see a camera with tripod in your not so distant future to capture the shot. Good day!

I would love to get a decent camera and tripod, it would definitely help make better videos. I can only do so much when I’m using my phone. May have to start looking for a used one? Thanks for your support. Also, great write up on your elk hunt. I really enjoyed it!

Thanks, I’m an opportunistic hunter. This is the first deer that gave me a shot this year. Had it been a big giant buck that ran out of the bush, instead of this guy, I would have shot him too!! I’m not picky!!

Thank you, and thank you again. If you look back at some of my past threads, I posted up a few more videos from this season as well. Glad you enjoyed this one!

Just dropped the head off at cabelas (CWD freezer) to see if this little guy is safe to eat or not. Fingers crossed it’s all good!

Thanks for watching. I’m told the Grouse one is a tad long by a buddy of mine. Obviously my objective is to get people watching, so I am open to constructive criticism. If there’s anything you think could be done differently in the future, feel free to offer your opinion. I value the input of my viewers, and hope to keep creating videos that will not only keep my current viewers entertained, but also attract more viewers. Thanks again for watching.

Would you believe that all my videos were edited right on my iPhone? So crazy what we can do with our phones these days.

Thanks lefty, nothing even close to the season you had, but I still enjoyed every minute of it. I’ll still be Grouse Hunting until the middle of January. As much as I can get out anyways, now that I have a job again!

Still waiting on the cwd test results from “Elliot”. If you’ve ever seen the kids movie Open Season, you’ll get why I named him Elliot!
