Hello Everyone, my name is Tom. My channel will be focused on sharing with you, my time in nature. Many of the outdoor activities and projects will be centered around my home and also The Trailer at The Land where my father and I spent so much time along with other special places in Wisconsin. "The Trailer" at "The Land" has been in my family now over 50 years.
The channel will also focus on being positive and present (something I need to work on more) while encouraging everyone to try something new, get out into nature and appreciate how learning about nature can provide well-being and peace. I may add an occasional poem of mine along with one of my photographs. I appreciate your time spent with me in nature!!

How to Ice Fish
Incredible ice fishing day in northern Wisconsin. Lots of action!!
We were fishing with tip-ups for Northern Pike and hoping for a possible Walleye. The ice was only 6-8 inches thick on a almost 50 degree day.
Fishing was very active and the dogs had a ton of fun.

Deer gun hunt 2023 4K

Enjoy with me the 2023 gun deer hunt at our hunting camp in Wisconsin. The camp is almost 50 years old and has hosted so many fun and successful hunts. Our strategy is let the deer grow so we only harvest larger size bucks mostly focusing on antler size and then body size. This year we also focused on taking does. Our deer camp focus is to have fun and enjoy the time at camp!! The video does no...

It was the 2nd week in November and the weather was perfect and the bucks were really moving. My brother in law got a nice buck from probably his best stand!! I enjoyed a day in the woods watching bucks run. I got my buck several weeks ago so was just trying for doe. Does are smarter than bucks this time of year so no luck Its been a great season and we are excited for the gun opener in Wiscons...

This cold front was really fun to see coming. After several weeks of warm weather and not hunting that much at all the cold temperatures got me excited to be on the stand. The result of tonights sit was not expected. I decided to take a nice buck. It was a good deer and I am very happy with it!! Its not the biggest out there but there are too many plans this Fall to completed so I decided to ta...
Duck hunt and Musky Up-North

Fun trip, Up-North, in Wisconsin. Musky fishing and Duck hunting. The trip was super fun even though it rained the entire time. Always an adventure!! We returned to our favorite fishing spot which is a long boat ride and also to our favorite duck hunting river which is a long paddle in the dark. We got caught in a rain storm both times and did not connect but it was a very fun adventure!!! My n...
First Duck Hunt
zhlédnutí 111Před 9 měsíci
First duck hunt of the year. Appreciate you taking time to tune in. We went to a blind by my house that I built. I have not hunted ducks much but the pond at the house is usually quite active with Wood Ducks and Sand Hill Cranes during the Summer. In the Fall many northern ducks will stop over to rest so its a nice opportunity to watch and now hunt. My friend Mike joined along with his dogs. We...

Hunt 5
zhlédnutí 89Před 9 měsíci
This is my 5th bow hunt for a whitetail deer. Its been warm and its early in the season. I have been seeing many deer but not a large buck. I define a shooter as having a 15 inch inside antler spread along with at least 8 points. In the area I'm hunting (central Wisconsin) that would be at least a 2.5 year old and mostly likely 3.5 to 4.5 years old or older. Im also noticing that I have too man...
Picking acorns and Hazel Nuts
zhlédnutí 109Před 9 měsíci
Spent time this Fall collecting White Oak acorns, Burr Oak Acorns and Hazel Nuts. Goal is to use them to regenerate trees and shrubs in areas where Oak Wilt (disease that kills Oak trees) has killed many trees and opened the forest floor to much sunlight. Also going to plant the Hazel nuts to benefit deer, turkeys, and several types of birds that eat them. A future video will show me planting them
Hunt 4

The day was hot and I had no business going bow hunting. This little buck fawn got super curious and liked, for some reason, my ladder stand. I wanted to sit in the woods and decided to go to the Prairie Stand. The Prairie is about 3 acres in size and is really a remnant Oak Savanna. My stand is on the edge of the Prairie and adjacent to an alfalfa field where the deer go at dark. The deer like...
Hunt 3 Great time to Watch and learn about whitetail deer
zhlédnutí 87Před 9 měsíci
These types of hunts are great opportunities to watch and learn about deer habits. This hunt had a small 1.5 year old buck walk by my stand. It was a great time to gauge body and antler size along with age. Wind was perfect again for this stand and the deer never smelled me. The buck came out early about 3 hours before dark as it seems it was thirsty. Its been a bad drought here and I'm guessin...

Good bye and good luck
Must not like to eat venison, you had plenty of opportunities
Great camp! I belong to a good camp in AL, but am wanting to start my own tradition with my kids. Looking for land in KY now.
Thanks for comment. the camp is almost 50 years old. good luck finding one for your family!!
👊 *PromoSM*
you guys are funny!
Thats funny, mostly because I'm probably too serious most of the time. Thanks for comment!!
nice dog chairs !
Appreciate the comment. My friend has the dogs always sitting in their place...........worked great for ice fishing. Kept them off the ice as we were out there about 9 hours that day
This video beat me up a bit.........made mistake with an upside down video for about 10 seconds. Loading time too me over 6 hours with some issues too......better next time
Nice Buck
Hey neighbor, appreciate the comment!! bigger one next year
I agree artic shield boot covers work great. I put my little hand warmers in them and they work great
Thanks for comment!!.....yes, I do that all the time. Works great like you say. I also like boot warmers that plug in and I can keep boots on them overnight to also dry
Trails all over, no one walk in the woods? Could wear a three piece suit!
Interesting comment. Like it. Appreciate your interest
Excellent hunting! like your style. great video work. you will get the buck your looking for. persistence will pay off for you. I have a question for you, do you have to be drawn a tag in Iowa to hunt public land???
Appreciate the reply!! We hunt in wisconsin so i dont know about Iowa. Looking forward to a late season doe if it can stay warm
We have 750 acres here in East Texas and have the same "rules." If you want to shoot a great buck you have to pass on the good ones. Great video! Lasting memories are made at deer camp.
Agreed, Thanks for comment! Its been difficult some years convincing hunters to pass on 1.5 yr old bucks........Glad our current camp is "letting them grow"
Great friends, great stories, great food. Can't ask for more than that. Thanks for sharing.
Appreciate your comment!. Its a simple camp where we all get along and have fun.
How fun , a local you tuber .... I go past your place every day ! ..... I have been watching the woods clearing progress , and thought some one was going to build in there ... but now we know the rest of the story . An oak savanna in the making ......
Appreciate the comment!! Yes, much work happening. Enjoy watching it over the upcoming years. its going to be ugly in 2024 as we prep for planting with native grasses and wildflowers. 2025 will still be messy but by 2026 it should look great. So happy my neighbor also joined with me.
@@LandWhisperer .... I will be fun watching nnow that we know what we are seeing ! You can go riding at Jay's , and get nice grass fed beef just down the road too ...
Your camp is very similar to mine. Especially the roof work. Great video.
Appreciate the comment!! The roof was an adventure in cursing but turned out great and has lasted over 30 years so far
Noticed more bats in my yard this year also. I try to keep track of them by sightings. Do alot of nighttime fly fishing close to that area and saw more this year. One year I accidentally snagged one casting the fly rod and sadly he didn’t survive. Also had one actually pick dry fly off surface and dropped it that same year. Glad someone is trying to help them..Thx.
We count bats ever month during the Summer and have noticed more lately so thats good to see. You must get out a bunch fishing!! Appreciate the comment
Nice video! Love ur camp New subscriber.
appreciate the comment and subscribing!!
Man, you guys got a lot of big doe
Yes, too many does for sure. Trying to reduce them but the old guys I hunt with grew up not shooting does so its a challenge
In my book you had a successful hunt.
Appreciate your comment!! Yes a good hunt. Hunting seems quite different now that I'm older versus hunting years ago as a young person. Much less excitement now but much more meaning and joy
@LandWhisperer I hunt in Vilas County on public land, wondering what County your camp is in?
We are in Portage county. How is the deer population up North? Been hearing its still falling. do you think its wolves or bears or also possibly the forests getting too mature and not enough clear cuts and fire??
@@LandWhisperer I have a house and a few acres up there and we hunt on public about 2 miles away. The deer seem to relate to the same areas that people inhabit and stay in the area of cabins/houses. Maybe it's that some folks are feeding, but I know my direct neighbors are not feeding. There are many deer in that area, I harvested a ragged rack, but good size 6 pointer Sunday morning of opening weekend. I've had property up there for 25 years and I've never seen a wolf, heard a couple but never seen. Now, coyote on the other hand are more likely the problem if there is one.
Cool Dogs
Dogs are so fun to watch!! Appreciate comment
Is the camp near Iola?
We are located in Central Wis so yes probably 45 minutes away
Great capture of WI deer camp!! Brings back lots of memories for me. The camp and relationships were always better than the hunt for us. We were up in Ashland county. So is your home on the same property as your trailer/camper?
Thanks for nice reply! Agreed the people make the camp for sure. My dad was born and hunted in Ashland. I have never hunted Northern Wisconsin.....maybe some day. My home is separate and not in same location as deer camp
Northern WI is desolate compared to any other location in WI for deer. Your place looks much more robust, stick with what ya got. If you want to go up north hunting go in early fall and atv or bird hunt, lots of land up there to roam around. Good luck next year!
Great video
Appreciate kind reply
Very cool video. Thank you for sharing and explaining everything. That is so neat!!
Thanks for encouraging comment!
Hour well spent on a great video!Can’t wait until next year!
Thanks for the positive comment........appreciate you viewing. Trying to improve each new video. Its work but fun
great video 11k for a forty i bought my 40s in far northern wi in 1970 along with new car i was 19 paid 3400 for car and 33 dollars an acer still have car and land probably be laid out in car buried on property love your camp
Appreciate the comment!! You and I have the same love.......Land and Cars. Live long!!
Great representation of a Midwest Deer camp! And we use the Rule that you mentioned has to be a bigger buck than any buck you’ve shot prior. And a Euro mount at a minimum and all mounts stay at deer camp which is a 6400 sq fr log home.
Thanks for comment! We have, I think, a good rule now. If you shoot you have to be willing to spend the money......otherwise let it grow!!
Point Beer! haven't had any of that 50 years! last time was nickel beer night at 17 yrs old in one of those old fishing taverns on Lake Winnebago!
Sturgeon spearing on Winnebago.....so much fun..........Point Beer is still in business! 25 cents for a Shorty Miller back in my day
"The Land" is Legendary. So many great memories and more to come! The trailer is a time capsule
For sure! Hard to believe its been here so long in the same family. Thanks for the comment
Really interesting seeing what the entire hunting process all entails!!
You only saw a tiny part of the fun and adventure. thanks for comment!!
Nice buck!
Thanks 👍. appreciate the comment
Awesome team! I can't wait to see the results.
Can't wait! thanks for the comment

Calling me out! Haha
Yes, Good and helpful insights!!
this is very fun
Correct, Yes it was. Knowing I was going to be planting trees and shrubs that would grow for future generations to see and enjoy is very meaningful.......thanks for the comment!!
Nice spot, it's fun to just watch the deer run around! Even if you don't shoot one, they are still magnificent creatures to watch.
Appreciate the comment!! Agreed, I really now enjoy just watching the deer instead of shooting one.
Great Video! Enjoyed the sounds of the cranes, and the views of the ponds!
Yes, for sure. Those sounds in the morning made it really fun. Thanks for the comment
I subscribed because alot of deer hunting channels would have shot the small buck and you had the enthics to keep him on his hooves ....
Appreciate the comment!! I so much enjoy watching deer now while "hunting" In my youth I might have done that.
Waiting on the shooter! Can't wait for more.
I think there is one I might take. Looking forward to a long and fun season. Appreciate the comment!!!
Deer camp looks great!
Thanks for the positive comment!!
My best friend, thanks to you, I enjoyed watching... I'm proud of you for developing day by day.
Appreciate the kind words of encouragement. Hopefully the content improves as I learn
The Painted Lady shot is my favorite!!!
Appreciate the comment about the painted lady butterfly.
Looks fantastic!

Great work, it's amazing how the rocks settle into the earth after a couple of decades.
