Where did you rent the work trucks? Those were perfect!

Oh. I'm also making mine right now!!! Enjoy!

Love using an egg and breadcrumbs in my deer burgers especially on the grill so she sticks together nice! Beautiful, and I'm cracking an IPA open right now with ya sir. Cheers from Pennsylvania! 🍻

Great video to watch just after buying a saddle

Dude, I took it a step farther on an old vintage Browning Nomad Deluxe compound today, I removed the peep and the sights completely, and adjusted the tiller for a three under tab release. I put a Black Eagle vintage 500 full length arrow with 175 grain tip in the 12 multiple times, then I got my old Mathews MQ32 out, had already removed the peep, and after a few minute sight adjustments was driving tacs in the target, I'm really glad to here your success. I also shoot a Mesa hybrid longbow 37# just as accurate

What did you use to clean the spurs? Dawn soap? What are the two large bottles? I'm fixin to clean a set of 1 1/2" spurs, 10 1/2 beard, 21 lbs, Michigan bird.

Just a question did you try it out further than 60m

Did you know the tip of a girl's nose is almost as sensitive as her...

Look down the edge of string

I have always used my anchor point along with a pin sight. I use a Concho style rope release as I have always felt that I get a more accurate anchor point as the pivotal position of the anchor is farther away from the string and therefore the string is less influenced by any torque or angular misalignment on my part. Never had a need for kisser buttons either. I feel that I am more accurate than with a peep or kisser due to the consistency of feeling my exact anchor vertically, horizontal,as well as draw length.

I generally followed this video but I made 2 errors. First, I added a tiny bit of dish soap during my initial soak of the spurs (to loosen the skin.) This resulted in the spurs losing their rich dark color. I let them sit for a long while and the skin came off easily. Second, the skin came off so easily that it pulled the "sheath" of the spur completely off. So now I have one continuous piece of white leg bone and white spur. It's not a total loss. I can still display them. Just a good story of trial-and-error taxidermy by a novice. And if I really wanted to I could repaint the spurs somehow.

I ditched the peep bcuz of hunting in low light no kisser button no nose nock ..my form and anchor point is solid from thousands of hours of shooting..sick of people trying to tell me that it's like a rear sight on a gun lmfao a peep is basically just training wheels for people that don't put in the time on the range

Do you not have to line the pin up with the side of the string? I don't know how many times last season.I had to climb down 10,15 minutes early because it's too dark to see out of peep also struggle with idomics.

In the early 2000’s I used to put some drops of light stick fluid on my peep and flick the excess off. I’ll have to try this

Why do you use the nose button vs a kisser? I mean location, not brand/type.

Are you still shooting without peep?

I’ll try this Sunday!

Thank you i have actually been contemplating for some time how i could alliminate the peep sight out of my everyday target shooting. Now i have more info n im gonna check on the nose spike lol. Cant remember the name of it but yeah. Good info.

Just bought a compound bow having issue cuz I am right handed using right handed bow but im.left eye dominant so I just keep both eyes open looking down I can still see light silhouette of peep around the 3 pin but I feel like it throws me off I feel like ur video helps alot cuz I felt stupid thinking I should have got a left handed bow

I would love to get rid of my peep site. Question that I have, though, do you lineup your eye right on the string or slightly to the side?

Recipe looks good, might have to try this!

Let’s say the tree falls down that you’re in?? Do that that. 😂

I want to try that shot upside down in a tor nade err.

I made deer burger last week first I ever tried used 73/27 hamburger and shoulder from a six point I killed had a small electric grinder I got from harbor freight surprised me it did a fine job the burgers were great

So I just bought my first bow. It has a front sight but no peep sight so I’m having trouble figuring out how to position the string to aim with the sight. It has 2 little strings that hang off the bowstring that I’ve tried using but I can’t seem to figure it out. Already lost 1 of my 6 starting arrows -_-

You're so right on, I have always used a kisser button and I shoot great. With a peep it's so fuzzy and hard to focus on my dot. Kisser only is the way to go. Thanks for your video.

You made it a point to prove your point by mocking what others think or say, but I'm going to prove that you don't truly trust your saddle system by pointing out the obvious, which is that you're doing all of this while being only 2' off the ground. Now don't go making a video doing this same thing 30' off the ground because saddles were specifically not designed for you to do these types of things. This would be an inappropriate use of the saddles and it could result in serious injury or death. You've proven your point that that are pretty hard to fall out of, but I've also proven my point which is that they are not 100% safe and that's why people such as yourself are not doing these demos from 30' up in the air. I point this out to you not because I think saddles are super dangerous, but rather, just to point out that even you know they are not 100% safe. As a recreation tree climber, I climb with harness and ropes and I know they are relatively safe. Note I say they are "relatively" safe. Your saddle is no different. It all depends on you using it properly and knowing where the dangerous aspect of saddle hunting are and mitigating or having a system that works for you to mitigate these aspects so it's a safe experience for you. For everyone, it's going to be a little different. There is no one size fits all because we are all built differently. You will be able to do things that an obese 55 year old is not going to be able to do. Saddle hunting can be very safe if done right with all safety protocols in place and possibly some level of redundancy, especially in the ascent and descent stage. The biggest danger of a saddle is not once you're settled in. Your video shows how safe this stage can be, but that is not all of saddle hunting. That's only one stage of it. Every elevated hunting system, be it saddle, climber, ladder, or hang-ons, carries an element of danger. It is for each individual to identify this for themselves and to determine what will make it safe for them. An all out, "saddle hunting" is safe is irresponsible because it inherently is not. The same is true of all elevated hunting systems. They all can be made much safer, but non is inherently safe. They all are inherently dangerous and are only made safe when we as the user take the necessary precautions to make them as safe as possible for our use case. Let's make sure our fellow hunters are as safe as possible by encouraging them to truly understand their choice of elevated hunting systems and letting them know that all systems are inherently dangerous and it's up to them to mitigate these dangers. The most often overlooked danger will all systems is, what do you do in the event you are hanging from your life support system and have not way of going up or going down. Yes, you've be spared a close and impactful encounter with the ground, but what now? In 2022, an Iowa hunter died simply because he was stuck in the air and could not free himself. He was a mere 6' up off the ground and he was upright, not inverted. A squirrel hunter came to his aid and could not get him down. He was 6' off the ground and he died. Why? Because he didn't have a means to mitigate such a scenario. He believed the likes of you that as long as he was tethered in, he was safe. No system is 100% safe. They all come with risks. It's everyone's job to communicate these dangers clearly to all hunters so they can make an informed choice, one that will hopefully keep them safe because all our families want us to return safely from our hunting trips. Cheers and stay safe my friend.

I love cooking and looking for a good sausage recipe. Thanks man

What draw weight do you use? Nice shot 👍

I lost my peep it was 2 seasons ago . Remember it like yesterday .

Saddles are supper comfortable but how do u shoot a compound bow from them? It’s great for guns and crossbows. Ropes get in the way for compound. I hunt west Michigan public land. Crazy pressure and just realized I kill more deer off the ground than elevated. When it’s cold all the work to set that shit up is ridiculous. U wanna be light weight hunt the ground. Your gonna have to when u get old. Simple

Good

Hilarious

Cool hunt, nice buck. Crazy to me people leave inner loins in deer to rot.

Nice buck

Just found your channel. Been bowhunting 54 years and only 1 hunt with a peep sight. Couldn't get the peep off fast enough after I let the BIG boar hog walk cause I couldn't see through the peep. I have killed 100s of animals without a peep, only a kisser button. I like the looks of this nose button you have.

Awesome video man, I recently became partially blind in my dominant eye and I think this may work to still let me shoot my compound.

My best deer caliber and scope combo. Thats my 100% go to rifle for deer.

Best saddle video ever!

Not a fan of so many steps and ingredients, but you cannot argue with the results. If you don't want to start the process on the grill, just sear both sides in a cast iron skillet.

Great video,I shoot without peep and sights much easier and pretty accurate,just need to practice.

Do you try and remove the lymph node?

What a bad ass hunt man congrats! I am headed up the haul road august 6th and couldnt be more excited!

Every hunter should be taught this. Personally, I believe no matter what you will shoot better with a peep. Pro’s use them for a reason. However, I think if everyone would train like this , it would be better for them

Is there anyway to get some info about this hunt? Maybe your Fairbanks contact? Aaron Lawson? We are going to hunt the haul rd next month and would like to get as much intel as possible. I would gladly pay for the info if needed. thanks

white powder from a donut!

Great video

Great video

What a cool group of bow hunters.... there are a lot of good truck hunting the haul road vids, they are all good. Your video is awesome!

How long do you let them sit in the bleach combo after painting em?
