First time posting on bowsite.com and thought I would share a video featuring my 2017 season in MN. In this video I am fortunate to arrow my #1 buck from last year. The buck has matching triple brow tines and gives me a broadside shot in the middle of a Minnesota snowstorm. https://youtu.be/QIg9iyxbFcQ Enjoy the video and if you like it check out my YouTube channel to see the video of the buck I shot in 2016. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKEifw54ryjeeZnQDM36opQ Thanks for watching and good luck out there this Fall!!

I put a small dish of birdseed in the stand the week before I started hunting to get them coming to the tree. Then it took a couple days for the birds to start landing on me and eating out of my hand. Helps pass the time..

Great vid!
Favorite part was you letting the 5 x 5 walk hoping your boy would get a crack at him. Also loved the birds. Nice touch!

Agree with all the above. Awesome video. Self filmed is tough! I was really impressed you kept moving the camera to get the shot....would have been tempting to just get set up and make the shot without getting it on film! Well done

Congrats - ya I was thinking the same as SBH. Tough especially on such a nice buck to let it keep walking and move the camera and try again. So much can always go wrong. Congrats on a nice video and a stellar buck.

That was well done all the way around. The music went well also. You did a great job. Also, connecting with the birds says a lot about your woodsmanship. A memory for your lifetime:) C

Well done you have talent! I would have dropped the camera out of the tree, and instead of birds I would have attracted mice with the birdseed.

My hat'e off to you and others who can juggle cameras while hunting and still get both shots.
Congrats on a great video and a great buck.
I think I'll be borrowing your birdseed idea too. I've had birds land on me, but your plan looks more entertaining.

Non-hunters, like several of my family members, don’t generally appreciate a video like this. So thank you for all the encouraging words. I am planning to have my camera rolling again this Fall and hope to capture another great buck kill. Good luck to all of you. Fuel the passion and feed the birds..

so tough to do that - congrats !
amazing to me how often deer don't even know they're shot
From: CPAhunter

Nice video.
Two questions:
Whereabouts was it Public or private land?
Could you have put a 2nd arrow in him after the hit? It looked like you could have sent another arrow in.
From: Frostbite
11-Aug-18
Private land and I could not have put a second arrow in him. I knew the shot was good and I could see blood pouring out as he walked away. I agree it’s amazing that he didn’t know he was hit until it was lights out and he tipped over backwards.

What broadhead out of curiosity? All the deer I’ve shot ran like a bat out of hell.

Great video....thanks for sharing. Around 5:10 in the video, it shows the buck approaching, and there is a large limb in the tree that appears to be cut, but it is still in the tree.....is it just a broken limb, or is it partially hinge cut to clear a shooting lane?
From: Frostbite
27-Aug-18
Not hinge cut. Just a broken branch??
