Opening Day SUCCESS with Longbow
Vložit
- čas přidán 23. 09. 2023
- This is a bow hunt on opening weekend where mid-morning scouting led to a hot oak flat on top of a small ridge. I was using my Acadian Woods longbow which I have another video from earlier in the summer about.

He is what most hunters should want to be like
Nicely done.
Life’s just better with a stick bow. Congratulations
Excellent shot placement resulting in a clean harvest. Congratulations on some fine table fare.
Good shot glad to see you hunting with that longbow i bet you felt excited taking that doe with Traditional equipment. Love your video's done with good taste and instructional. Great Job!
Somehow its a bit sweeter when taken up close with a simple limited weapon ! Excellent shot and probably great meat.
Fantastic shot. Congratulations.
Shot placement couldn't have been better. Good job. There's a lot of time, money, effort, and thinking leading to that arrow, and you executed when your moment came. Great work.
Congrats ! Nice way to start the season.
Congratulations on your deer.dang good shot 👍👍

Great execution, congrats on the harvest.
Great shot man congrats...
Nice shot Garrett!!!
Congratulations, nice content and a great shot 🏹
Perfect shot man. I love when compound guys shy away from the shoulder and a slow trad bow slices right through it. Heavier arrow and sharp heads make a difference.
Vital v. Google it
Way to go brother!!!! Congratulations!!!

Great job from the saddle!

Congratulations
awesome hunt!!!!
With a LONGBOW! YESSIR!!!
Good for you buddy
Good job
weidmannsheil nice hunting season start
Good job, nice executed shot Garrett. I do think you need a little more color on your arrows :)
That was exciting, close-up & personal. I was wondering how many Sam seen that afternoon? That looked alot like my short Jag 210. My new 400 spine Blackeagle X-Impact's have the Centerpin steel 58 grain sleeves on them. It's like no friction with the Jag Wax & the balance of that arrow is ridiculous. Thanks & Congrats & can't wait for the next.
Sam ended up seeing 3 but they weren't close enough. I think she ended up having an opportunity at a button buck but chose not to shoot. I was using the 200gr normal jag here. They are some nice heads.
WOOOHOOOOOO GARRETT!
Smoked her! Nice shot and video!
Great hunt but those Tree Girdles would drive me nuts. Kinda limits ya big time. 👍🏻🦌
You couldn't have hit her better.....great job man.
Nice!
Can you tell us about your archery equipment?
I have a video on the setup I used for this hunt here: czcams.com/video/p7UWsFUhKkY/video.htmlsi=Ymye6X3S9vwoG7DZ
Yessir!!!🏹
Great shot. Looks like you are using 8mm with a madrock and the line is taught back over the top to your left. I can't tell if it is backed up or just taught from going into your pouch. Can you comment on that? I've never seen anyone put it back overtop the madrock like that. Thanks.
Yes, the rope is taught just from it going back into the pouch on my left side. I don't like ropes on my strong side where they could get in the way. The way I have it going over the top and kept tight makes it extremely unlikely the rope could get underneath that lever. I know some guys who will start like that and basically tie a little knot around the device. I wouldn't recommend anyone use with a rope diameter smaller than spec'd. I did a lot of testing with the combo trying to force it to slip and couldn't get it to, but that's a personal decision.
Nice shot! Great deer! Any chance that you make a video of the new features on spartan forge with the recent update?
Yes, I'm actually working on one right now :)
@@DIYSportsman sweet! Will be looking forward to it. Would love to learn how to use the blue force tracker
Good looking arrows. What poundage is the bow? Good video.
43# at 28, so it's roughly 46# at my draw length.
Excellent sir!
Finger tab?
Also, what model is that lightweight hoodie that you are wearing on this hunt?
Yes, I'm using a yost predator tab with an extra layer of leather in the middle. I'm wearing an older cabelas merino quarter zip that I think was made by icebreaker. And then a first lite merino balaclava.
Amazing shot! Did you aim low to anticipate her drop considering she was on red alert?
Yes, I did hold a little low. Near the belly line.
Question - the device that you rest your hand on, looks like it's at the apex of your bridge? WIth a black lever? That's not a Ropeman, right? What is that?
Beautiful video--and thanks for posting a doe kill. It's not ALL about them horns.
It's called a Madrock Safeguard. It's a device that'll hold your position like a ropeman, but also allows you to rapel, using that lever as a speed brake of sorts. On my single stick climbing video I show its use in more detail
Thanks boss. And kids? This is why Garrett’s the best. This is the third or fourth question I’ve asked him, outta nowhere, and he always answers immediately, accurately, and with zero condescension.
Thank you.
Man, nicely done, dude. Would love for you to try and shoot my bow. We're both southpaws. Should give it a go.
Saw u are using the one sticking gear.. did you switch your climbing setup from the tethred one sticks?
I still used the Tethrd One sticks, just one of them for this hunt. Though I think I'll be going back to carrying two or three with aiders instead of just the one.
I've learned a lot from your channel over the years. Nice traditional harvest there!
Just one question, did you use a DSLR/ mirrorless or camcorder to film the deer when it came in for the shot?
I used a mirrorless camera, Sony A7siii with tamron 28-200 lens, though I've recently switched to a ZV-E1 with 18-105 power Zoom
Great. thanks, that helps. I just picked up a DSLR Canon for better low light filming. The footage quality in your video is of good quality. You can tell the difference between a run of the mill camcorder and a DSLR or Mirrorless camera based on the quality of the final product. 📸
What kind of tree stand are you using?
Tethrd Predator XL with a knee bar I put on it.
I do not know how you guys use those tree Saddle
I posted a video on it today. Personally I think it helps get into better shooting positions for traditional though everyone will have their personal preferences.
That was a great shot she was running dead
Nice meat on table jelly man! That's a spear not arrow!! Hahha
Dang, must have been roasting your nuts off in all that clothing. Anything above 50 is way too hot for me to go out and then I still have to wear shorts and a T-shirt or else I roast.
Great shot! Congrats
Congratulations! Awesome shot
Congratulations!
