Man here in Alabama.. when that deer looked up and saw you.. hed been gone... Gone.. a mature buck like that down here dont play that.. Your fortunate to be able to hunt deer like that.. cool video.. ive been hunting traditional equipment since 1985.. i love it.. good luck..
Most of our deer here act the same way!! Southern deer are by far the hardest to hunt in our opinion. For some reason the deer in that particular area let you get by with a lot more. They act more like midwestern deer. Nice to hear from other trad hunters. We are working on coming out with our own line of recurves keep an eye out!!
Loved watching that buck, seemed calm yet kept that ear pinned to you guys even when turning his head
Definitely, it was an amazing encounter. Still a little heart broken from it but thats what keeps us wanting more.
@@gritarchery I’m hoping for the same encounter this fall. Keep your head up and try again
Great footage! Keep getting after it guys!
Thanks, trying our best. That encounter hurt a lot but also left us wanting more.
Awesome job getting into that situation, almost worked out. Keep it up!
Thanks, we left the woods that night empty handed but still pumped from such an awesome encounter.
Great video, that buck was a freaking statue.
Felt like he was staring a hole through me
Nice work guys keep it up
Thanks buddy.
What a heartbreaker! Must have heard something at the end there.
It was but thats what keeps us going back I guess
I can't understand tour whispers. Is it possible to get you hunters to post some captions so we can know what you are saying.
They do see our white faces try a camo hood it might help, they have worked for me been bow hunting since 1979
Camo is a gimmick. Never wear it. Been 5 yards from deer in tan pants and a red flannel shirt. Its all about good back cover, paying attention to the wind, and being still and quiet.
Can't hurt. We try to utilize them or face paint as much as possible. This hunt was a bit of a cluster all together.
Wind and good backdrop are definitely more import to us as well. We try to put everything in our favor though. We think the glare of the camera screen in low light got us on this one. Having two people in the tree all the time adds a whole other level of difficulty.
That bowhunting sometimes! good video and nice country. What bow setup you shooting?
70's model Bear Super Kodiak 50#
Great video, the recording quality went down a bit but the excitement was all there. What location was that?
Sometimes filming becomes secondary to us, we get caught up in the hunt. Lost most of our footage from this one because our mic was turned off. We were in hunting in western North Carolina.
Thermals got ya.
You'll get him next time. Did you silhouette against the tree line?
We had a pretty good backdrop. We think he originally picked up Zacks face lit up by the camera view finder. That combined with smelling where the bear had been, got him boogered just enough. Hopefully we can catch back up with him soon.
@@gritarchery you will get him. I suggest urinating all over that area so he gets used to your scent when your not there. He is a good buck. Nice rack but not too old to be chewy. Will make a good shoulder mount.
Giant
That was close!
Painfully close

Thanks for the sub means a lot to us.
looked like your stand was close to eye level with that buck… maybe try going higher?
We were up about as high as we could be for that set up. Just comes with hunting in steep country. If they come from up hill it's definitely easier for them to pick you out. Especially with two guys in the tree. Thanks for the feed back!
The bow is too loud. Drop some graphite powder on the rest, it will be silent
We will give it a try thanks.
Came to draw to late been there myself it sucks
Thats archery, you get split second sometimes to make the call. Happy we had the encounter, would rather see him walk off than have a badly placed arrow in him.
Do yourself a favor and skip to 1:24 to begin. WAY too much wind noise and loud thumping rapper type music in the first of the video! Otherwise, a great archery video that shows the patience needed to be a bow hunter!
Thanks for the feed back. This one was defiantly a test of patience. Would've just flung one in my early days. Always learning from past mistakes and growing as an archer
