Great hunt ! Good job.

☝ STICK ALL DAY!!! OH & TWICE ON SUNDAY!!!

I know it's been 3 years since you did all this but, I'm curious what your thoughts on it now after all this time??? Reason I ask is because I'm considering buying this entire setup for this coming season???

If you used an aider on the first stick thatd get you about 3 extra feet before you have to setup the second stick

That was badass how you went down the tree and I’ve always wondered how you get your rope down

No need to burp at them when they are that close and barely moving. This will hurt you more times than not. Just an observation after 40 years of bow hunting. Nice shot and kill young man.

Just wondering if you ever use ring of steps with your one stick ?

You think you will need a ring of steps with your platform ?

What’s your setup? Poundage dl and arrow weight?

Does the eastern woods out door one stick come with the cam cleat, and the retractable wire handle, or are they bought separately?

If you were all alone with no camera in your face would you over react, like it is your first time killing a deer?

Great video. But music is a bit loud.

Congratulations. Great video

Dude! You rocked that video. Best explanation from start to finish. Appreciate it , Saddle Up!

That was the best hunting content I’ve seen in a while. The way you led him to the deer. Just plain awesome!

As you said, "if you forget your stick up there, you'd be going right back up" I was wondering how since your only stick is up the tree.

Didn’t really seem like a stealth exercise 🤔

Some places I ground hunt, some places I hunt in a climbing stand, some places I hunt in a saddle with 1 stick and some places with 4 sticks. I’m 56 and I can tell you it just depends on the spot you’re hunting. There’s no perfect stand for all hunting situations. In a tree, I like to be at 25 feet, I’ve hunted lower and higher depending on the tree and cover. I’ve killed more deer within 10 yards on the ground than I care to admit. It’s a rush though. In 2014 I had a platform slip down the tree and I fell about 25 feet and landed on the side of my head and shoulder, didn’t break anything. Felt like Mike Tyson beat me up though. I got lucky and now I wear a harness, so 30 plus years I never thought about a harness. Funny how things can change you. Be safe guys and enjoy the great outdoors. There’s nothing like sitting in a tree and watching the world wake up.

You also have to remember, you have to be as quiet as you possibly can. This will add significant time ( probably at least 50% more). You did a good job on this. Also, in most cases, you will need to be 18’ minimum to the platform. Depending how tall ( and young 😅) you are you may have to add a stick.

North or south west..im going northwest?

You also nailed the question in regards to setting up over a limb, pulling the rope out. Thanks again.

Been watchin a few of these one stickin pickin and you are straight up and smooth with it preciate your time. What county you in?

I have a set (3 piece) of Muddy climbing sticks They have the versa button. I am really interested in trying the One Stick method but the sticks have the versa button. I'm just curious, what's the issue with using sticks with a versa button? Is it because the versa button would be harder to remove the stick from the tree? I'd like to change my sticks to cam cleats but the sticks are so old I'm not ever sure a cam cleat could be mounted on the sticks.

What happens if you drop the stick???

You seemed to be biased towards the one stick because you moved with more of a purpose when using it. You were somewhat lackadaisical when doing the 4 stick. To each their own just be safe

Yeah…I think I’ll stick w my pop up blind…

I've lived in North Carolina and I've lived in Missouri. North Carolina is NOT a humid state.

Sound like from the air traffic you're near an airbase. Maybe Seymour Johnson?

Excellent work my man. I have been using the Hawk Helium skicks and the Predator platform for several years, I may have to switch to the one stick 😉

It’s been 2 seasons and over 100 one stick hunts since I first watched this video. I love this system I can hunt anywhere on the fly even in the dark

this is a awesome video , Great North carolina buck

Next time, stand on the scale, then grab what you were trying to weigh and subtract the difference

I'll just stick to a tree climber.

Did you forget to wrap your retrieval rope in in the “coming down” part of the one stick?

Thanks for showing it in real time.

Does it a matter how much time it takes to get down? Your hunt is over. Plus look how fast you was moving for the one stick. Taking your time for the four stick. I agree one stick is better but be fair

And now I’ll wrap this long rope around my neck….

Good hunt!! Have you thought about adding background music?

Gotta be honest… the only reason I clicked on, was cause of the hilarious channel name!!

Have same gun,what load was used? Congratulations, nc hunter here as well.

So, the mad rock says its rated for 8.7 mm to 11 mm rope, the rope he suggested in the link is 8mm.. is this safe? Was this a mistake or is the 8mm actually 8.7mm and just called 8mm for standard?

How difficult is this in cold weather with multiple layers and gloves on?

From Raleigh NC MYSELF

I can’t wait to hunt with new 2023 125 gr. Simmons mako shark broadhead !

stinging bees in an emergency, then I go for this one stick method! much faster and safer, can you forward the brand of this set!

I am thinking about getting into saddle hunting but I’m thinking the figure 8 descending system is the way to go, on top of being super simple and controllable, they are stupid cheap compared to the mad rock safe guards

Good lord do something about that stilt grass, that’s pathetic

“My buddy has a 12 inch stick” is not what I heard 😂😂 Thanks for the video man!

Great review!!!

How do you have your self film set up in the tree? Also what cameras are you running?
