High Intensity First Person View Deer Hunt

Opening season in Texas is one of warm weather, mosquitoes and deer that are not yet wary of the hunters flocking to their habitat. On this particular day I was hunting a stand that was very close to the feeder and the wind was not in my favor. Unlike the rest of the deer, a doe in the small group that came up to feed was very alert and kept looking directly at me. This made it difficult for me to make any kind of movements especially when I was trying to film the hunt by myself. Once I was able to get all my cameras turned on I had to wait another 45 minutes to an hour before I had an opportunity for a shot at the spike I had chosen. In the end all paid off perfectly and a fantastic shot was made. As I mention in the video below, the sound of my arrow hitting the deer gave the impression that my shot was bad. But just like calling your shots in a USPSA pistol match, I called my shot with arrow and I was right on.

Vehicular Hog Hunting!

Nothing gets the blood flowing quicker than a high speed chase. Throw in some hogs and a suppressed AR15 across your lap and it's on like Donkey Kong! But seriously, hunting from a vehicle, even a parked one creates a host of difficulties. Virtually no one in the private sector trains to shoot from a car or truck. You will be surprised at how cumbersome that tricked out AR15 is when attempting to shoot it from a car window.

Hunting from a vehicle on public roads is a violation and should never be done. However, hunting from private roads is legal. I grew up in the State of Texas where pretty much all the land is privately owned so hunting requires permission from and fees paid to the land owner before you can hunt on their land. This is called a lease or "Hunting Lease". Some of these leases span for miles so hunting from an ATV can be typical. We typically only hunt from a vehicle when going after pests like coyotes, hogs and any other critter the land owner deems a problem. Please take a couple of minutes to view the video I self filmed using a Contour ROAM POV style camera while driving back from my deer blind for breakfast. It made for an exciting morning!

Hunting Season!

Just in time to get you in the mood for Hunting Season! Most hunters don't really need a pep rally to get them excited about hunting season. But the video below will for sure get any hunter's blood pumping. The video is compiled of about 5 years of my hunting experiences in Central and South Texas. Almost all the footage is of my own hunts with the exception of a few where I was only filming serving as a guide. I've hunted with rifle, pistol, shotgun and compound bow. By far the most exciting of all my hunts is with the compound bow... with the exception of chasing down hogs from the Jeep with and AR15.
