I know that hunting is a controversial issue, and I don't want to convince anyone about why it is necessary. Today I just want you to lead through four days of fallow buck hunting, done in the traditional way, carrying a flintlock rifle with open sights. - Věda a technologie
I love that you're still out there with the traditional flintlocks, taking game. Keep the tradition alive!
I mean, tradition is relative, but I agree.
Hi Matt! :-D
where I live it's encouraged you can go hunting a few months earlier in the season if you use a bow and arrow or flintlock rifle
And giving the fallen game that respect !
The respect of the game is something we need here more in the US. I have been hunting 25 years or more now and I use to teach hunter safety courses where I live, and I always taught that the game needs to be respected. My son has started hunting this year and I am teaching him the same thing, we are part Akwesasne (Mohawk) and I have stressed with him how Native Americans always respected the game that they took because it was always thought to be a gift, not taken for granted.
What a great hunt, I had my flintlock out this year but didn't get a shot at anything, I did take a nice whitetail buck with an old Winchester 1894 in .32-40 which made me very happy. There's something about using older technology that makes the hunt more challenging and gives you a better connection to the past.
Couldn't say it better self. When hunting as a hobby, it is not necessary to do it in the easiest and most pleasent way. Succeeding using old style equipment, makes you connect better to the past, and proofs your hunting skills. There's way too many gadgets helping the hunter these days. I believe them to increase the distance between man and nature. Not a good thing in my mind.
Where in the Adirondacks, im from northern warren county. never thought i would see another person from the bark eater mountains
When things are to easy contempt slips in.
I grew up the same. Hunting for me, my father, and grandfather was a deeply personal thing. The forest and mountains is pretty much our church or as dad would say the true place to be closer to god, and since it's his place it needs to be treated with respect.
I first started watching capandball because of the interesting firearms and the intelligent discourse. This is an excellent video of what hunting truly is. The shot is such a small part of hunting and the taking of life is, and should be, the most serious part and treated with the utmost respect. I gave up hunting back in 1977 or so because of the disrespect of the land and the life on the land that I encountered many times around my home in Western Colorado, and too because I realized that I didn't need to kill to sustain my own life. Thanks for demonstrating that there is another way to conduct oneself in every facet of the hunt.
How do you mean by, "I didn't need to kill to sustain my own life". Does that mean you turned vegetarian? I'm just curious.
@@hellotheremyolfriend I did become a vegetarian for about fifteen years but I live at almost 9000ft in a very cold climate and found that I couldn't consume enough calories to stay warm and function physically at a high level without eating meat so I went back to meat eating. I think elk and buffalo are the best because of no cholesterol but shooting an elk was more meat than I could eat in a year so it was another incentive to stop hunting (besides all the slobs in the woods). I do believe though that everyone that eats meat should, at least once in their life, kill, field dress, butcher and eat the meat they consume so that they learn that something has to die so they can live. It doesn't just come on a styrofoam plate. Too many urban dwellers are too far removed from the land which, I believe is one of the fundamental problems with modern living in general and lack of care for the land and the planet.
@@populustremula7496 I agree with the part that a lot of us are too removed from the land, and that field dressing/hunting would probably reconnect a lot of us to the land and make sure healthier in mind and body.
Your best videos are the hunting videos. If anyone hasn’t seen them, they need to “Check it”. This is one the best. So far.
Not really
But close
agreed, this is the best one yet :)
I have been watching your hunting videos for a while now and it inspired me to try hunting with a muzzleloader. I finally got to do it this season and harvested a whitetail doe with a Lyman percussion rifle.
Congratulations!
Nice
Waidmannsheil! 📯🌿
Waidmannsheil ! I am an American but I lived in Germany for 8 years while in the military. I had a German hunting license and they followed those historic traditions as well. 30 years later I still follow those traditions and try to teach them here in America.
I have an admiration for the German/European hunting traditions as well. Good on you for teaching them here in America. Waidmannsheil.
Hunting without traditions is meaningless. Waidmannsheil from Holland.
Hunting is about conservation and harvesting local, organic, free range food. Traditions are for people that just want to kill something beautiful just for the sake.
@@Spruce-Bug can 't it be both?
@@cccz0937 if it's not predator management or for meat in the freezer, it's poaching as far as I'm concerned. A Hunter ought to care about the wellbeing of the habitat of all local species, not just game. Just because you can doesn't mean you should.
@@Spruce-Bug Hunting is in a way important so that people will feel responsible for wildlife and nature conservation. Hunting traditions is nothing more than the thin layer of glue that keeps hunters adhering to the ancient / pre-christian Noble Hunters Laws, so that hunters can be held responsible for wildlife and nature conservation.
Don't get me wrong, I know of people who cram a branch in the deer's mouth and call their kill clean while trampling over most Waidligkeit (sportsmanship/woodsmanship). And I also disagree with those Europeans who consider American hunters butchers as they lack traditions or culture around hunting (although I abhor Americans trying to copy European hunting traditions, as their soil, through their ethnic/native Americans, already has shown them the way). But the nice thing of traditions and rituals is that they are easily passed down (through education and peer/group pressure) and give a sense of gravity to 'wildlife conservation & predator management'.
@@YaoiMastah As I said, hunting traditions are for people who want to kill something just for the sake of it. Which is what you just said. For the rest of the conservationists and land stewards, including many first nations people, it's for local and free range food. 3 deer, 3 turkey, maybe a bear of you're lucky, and I don't have to go to the grocery store for the rest of the year. It has very little to do with tradition. I'm just calling a spade, a spade.
Great video that represents the hunt in it’s true way. As a hunter you work hard for the final success. All the waiting and thriving for that one moment. This video was shot and cut with the same passion as your hunters passion - no rage, not loud but calm and devout. Again a joy to watch. Thank you for sharing your hunt.
I believe in the respect each animal deserves. Here in the US you see hunter’s screaming, high five-ing and showing no respect for the animal that just gave its life for the hunter. Hunting has turned into the “trophy hunt” and not what it was originally intended… sustenance and balance. I have been hunting big game since I was 10 with my father. I remember taking that first 2x2 blacktail deer and when I walked up to him, the emotions were all over the place and my father said a prayer, thanked the animal and had me repeat what he said and did. I am 64 now and still do this today. I have taken several
Fallow Deer with my flintlocks… they are “free range” where I hunt so you never know if you will see them or not. The flintlock takes the hunt closer to a “balanced” level. I do not know how I missed this video, but, I thank you for keeping the traditions alive and for another excellent hunt. Good journey my friend.
Very well said! Thanks!
"Waidmannsheil" as we say in Germany! Thank you for the beautiful and atmospheric video and congratulations!
No fences or food plots. Real hunting! Great video, great traditions and self-imposed rules, very inspiring!
I like what you do in respect for the animals...nice tradition.
The tradition is awesome. I also like that there were tears after the shot.
I was in Hungary autumn 2019, and it had some beautiful landscapes. Hungary was so screwed by the Soviets, yet it is such a distinctive place.
Your channel just gets better. Well done, this is one of the best. I wish some of the other channels showed as much respect for their quarry.
I'd love to hunt in Europe one day thanks to you.
But for now, i'll stick to the South African bush.
Cheers and congratulations on a sucessfull hunt !
Sir, been watching you here all the way from the phillippine island & i would say you're a fine gentleman for keeping all those traditions intact & well preserve. More power to you & your channel!!
Thank you for sharing your hunt with us. Aside from being well filmed and edited, your presentation conveyed the beauty of your country and the spirituality of the hunt. Thank you for sharing your traditions, as they bring meaning. For me, as a traditional hunter, this touched me deeply. Respect for the animal, respect for nature, and ultimately respect for one’s own place in life. May fortune continue to smile upon you and yours.
My goodness, what a video to watch - thank you to all three of you there for this. I'm afraid I shed a couple of tears at the end - part of me would not have minded if you never took that shot. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, your skills, and your traditions. I wish I understood Magyar so I could understanbd your conversations.
Wow!
Such a great movie!
I am for sure unable to even begin to imagine how much work, patience and commitment it needed to keep this exciting experience on film.
I probably would not have been able to do a shot at the end because of my heartbeat making my body shaking.
I am so grateful that you share this with us.
Waidmannsheil!
Mattias
This was an amazing insight into the hunting culture of Hungary. Your commentary is excellent and really makes you feel like you are there in the forests of central Europe. Thanks for this video!
A wonderful hunt with beautiful traditions.. and though I live in the US, we also in my family follow very similar rules when hunting.
Awesome video and great footage, thanks, thumbs up and greetings from New Zealand.We hunt and respect our quarry when it is down.
Alex is correct. I grew up in Deutschland and Ostrich, being of descent from both countries. I hunted with my father as I was not of age. Then we came to America. Those traditions we brought with us. My father has long since pasted away but, I bring those traditions to my children and those who have hunted with me over the years. I want to thank you for filming this event and sharing. It has brought back so many great memories. I’m new to muzzleloading and am inspired by your knowledge. Hoping to be fortunate enough to draw a hunting license for either Mule deer or Elk in Colorado during their muzzleloading season. Weidmannsheil from Colorado.
Gratulálunk, on a great journey to your traditional fallow harvest. Highly appreciated your comments on fair chase. In these times of all to many waging a technological war on the animals in pursuit of quick results, your messages are important 🤠🇳🇴🏹
The greatest threat to wildlife is development and encroaching human population. Modern hunting is highly regulated. In North America, hunting is credited for the quick return of wildlife where it had been nearly wiped out during the settlement period.
I enjoy history and old guns. Your knowledge of the history of these iconic firearms, and quest for the correct way to load for them makes for informative and enjoyable videos.
But recently your hunting videos have really been excellent, and this one is superlative.
Magnificent animals, a great rifle, beautifully filmed, and with commentary that captures the true spirit of hunting.
Congratulations sir.
Thank You. From Pennsylvania America's last true late season Flintlock State. Much Pride and Honor. You are truly keeping the real meaning of the hunt with respect to the game most important. Thank you for your efforts and taking us along with you.
You have my respect. even when one is not a hunter you cannot cover the fact that this is a very educational and respectful documentary. I very much respect the fact that you do not hide your emotions, not when you are happy and not when you are sad.
Congratulations Capandball, another great video.
I have been hunting with muzzle loaders for over thirty years but mainly ducks, geese and in the last three years pheasants.
I started waterfowling when it became too easy to get the bag limit!
The challenge of muzzle loading brought a new aspect and enjoyment in taking game.
We are seeing many hunting videos and TV programs were hunters are shooting game at 400 plus metres!
This is not hunting, it is just good shooting!
Muzzle loading hunting give a lot more, as your game is a lot closer and I have learned more about my quarry and how they move.
More muzzle loading hunting videos please Capandball.
Tbh your one of my favorite channels I love how peaceful it is and yet so facanating and I love how tradition is respected
I tip my hat to you sir, as a hunter from the state of Georgia in the U.S.A. It is wonderful to see the respect you have for not only the tradition of the hunt, but the game as well.
I am amazed at how vocal fallow bucks are! Also the prevalence of albinism and white deer is very interesting. Thank you for a very good video.
Thank you for taking us along on your hunt and showing us your BEAUTIFUL country!
As an American I have never seen such respect showed towards game like this, it’s really and eye opening thing to witness. I definitely see hunting in a light I’ve never seen before, I love the deep rooted and beautiful traditions and I definitely want to learn more. Thank you so much for sharing! Love from America
Awesome video representation of traditional European hunting. I absolutely love the sound of those bucks in rut. Whitetails in Iowa, USA don't grunt that loudly but still put on a hell of show. A hunt like that is well worth a ten year price tag. Congratulations.
I like all your videos but this was especially well shared. thank you for taking the time to bring us with you. Beautiful hunt, well done!
Congratulations on a successful hunt and the taking of such a beautiful animal. Excellent shot as well. I enjoy the peace and quiet of your videos and the fact that you are a reloader. I took a mature doe for the freezer this year using a Marlin 336 with cast bullets and 4227 powder, and iron sights. I would love to have a Pedersoli 71, but it is too late in the game to justify spending that much money, so I will continue on a couple more years with the Marlin. Dad started me out as a spotter and retriever when I was 4 or 5, I will be 73 soon and am going to miss hunting when my time comes. You can carry on for me!
I like all videos you put up but I'm looking forward to your hunting videos the most!
Been subscribed to you for a long time but I get goosebumbs every time a hunting video shows in my feed!
Thanks again for sharing your passion and congrats on a clean kill! Waidmannsheil as we say in Germany!
Thank you so much for your beautiful videos. These hunting ones are what I will use as examples when I start teaching my children to hunt. Cheers and well done.
Superb video and narration. You are a true gentleman and know guns and convey a wonderful grace in hunting. Thank you for everything.
Well done, to hunt without respect for the animal is simply killing. You are continuing a great relationship between man and game. Bravo.
I very much enjoy your videos. Thanks for taking me (us) along on your adventure. I'm still thinking about getting a Pedersoli 1886 Sporting Rifle after having seen your video about it. BTW, greetings from Tucson, Arizona.
I love your philosophy of the hunt. Shows great respect and control. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for this Video, I like your more technical videos very much, but in your hunting videos, you show, with an unique passion, nature and hunting with great respect.
Classy channel with a true hunter! Cheers from Northern Ontario Canada!
Way cool!! As always another fine video, thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for the up and downhill shooting tip. And that was an awesome shot!!!!
Pretty cool rules. Talk about tradition!! I like.
Keep up the good work 👍🏼👍🏼
Great hunt! I love and respect the traditions you have for respecting the game after the kill. I live in the US and other than doing everything you can to provide a quick, clean death to the animal we don't have any traditions like you do. Maybe because hunting is so regular and wide spread, we have lost the wonder of what we're allowed to do. I've always been very respectful to the game and I never will do anything to have an inappropriate advantage or anything that is questionable legally. Sadly, some hunters don't have the scruples and respect I do. Great shot and good hunting! I hope the steaks and roasts are delicious!
Beautifully filmed hunt. Thank you for continuing the tradition of respecting the animal after it has been taken. I wish more hunters took this approach.
Hunter's Salute!
You are an artist, not just with arms. I enjoy all your videos but the ones of the hunt, of the beauty and of the traditions, the most. Our traditions are different even within our own state, let alone country. Respect for the animal and the wild is what I treasure most.
I have been watching your channel for quite some time and i always found it very interesting and educational. Watching your reaction to the deer kill i had tears in my eyes as well. As a great shooter you are a teacher to we look up to. As a human being you're giving invaluable lessons. All the best from Slovakia.
Thanks for the good words Stefan!
The love the respect you show I try to teach my son after we harvest whitetails in the fall
That's beautiful 12:42, I work in the hospital in an x-ray department without a window, and a view like that, the cool weather, watching nature compete, and then it's me vs nature. I try to tell me friend who hunts with me (he hunts a lot more than I get the chance to) that it's a view like the one you saw that I love most about hunting. Even if nature defeats me on the hunt (and it usually does) and I go home without game, I am a happy man not being in the hospital and enjoying the blessing of nature - hot or cold, wet or dry.
Thank you! Always a pleasure to watch your videos...even on my birthday makes it better!
I am following your content for quite a while, but this is the first time I feel like commenting.
Your way of respecting the animal gave me goosebumps...
I butchered myself and I really really like your way of hooring the animal!
This is a prime example why I love your videos. The respect wich is necessary to kill and not to be just some random guy with a rifle.
Awesome channel! Since i watch yours i bought a Tryon Creedmoreµ^^ Thx for all and greetings from France
Congrats on a beautiful buck!!what a truely spectacular hunt👍👍 Well done
Just about the perfect hunt in every way. How it should be done.
Thank you for sharing it with us.
Except for 2:53
Great video. Have been watching you for a while now. I really like the Germanic / Hungarian hunting traditions as they pay respect to the fallen game. Like you shooting videos as well. Keep up the good work. Weidmans Heil. Ron
Beautiful traditional respect for the animals. Nice shot, even if you claim a little higher than you wanted… it was a nice, effective and reasonably quick dispatch.
Beautiful scenery and entertaining video as always. Very enjoyable! Thank you for sharing.
I went hunting with my dad when I was a little boy, learning to shoot a Savage .22 auto-loading rifle and a 1917 SMLE .303 Brit. when I was 7. I shot my first white tail deer at 10, with a 1893 Winchester in .30/30 on a wind swept Saskatchewan prairie, 1971. My father was an English immigrant to Canada, and only learned to hunt after moving here in 1949, so there was no tradition, just a business-like butchering. Years later, when living with some native friends on the wild Pacific coast I learned their traditions, and understand the need for them. Your Hungarian rites are quite like theirs, and very cool. I don't hunt anymore, just fix guns and target shooting, but if I were too, I think I would like to try a flint lock or percussion cap.
I want to say. I also love and keep the old ways going. I shoot only flintlock smoothbore. I also choose my bucks this way. Thanks for sharing. Much respect great video. God bless .👍 😊
Nice story and detailed video , great visuals , and landscapes .
That was a great video of your hunt. I appreciate the traditions you follow and the respect given to the animal. Well done.
The way he explains and shows everything is amazing
Great video
This video, and the entire aspect of the experience, is why I am a patreon. Beautiful scenery, beautiful photogrqphy (as a former photographer), and a sense of the obligation one has to kill a wild animal that has done nothing to harm you. And your use of a flintlock rifle, from 40 yards, is fair and requires exceptional skills to not spook the animals.
Such a beautiful country.
I love these hunting videos, you really have some beautiful woods in Hungary! Greetings from Sweden!
From Holland, thanks for your great video!!
Yes!! I’ve been waiting for a video like this!
And this is what it should be,...respect of nature, respect for the animal. You continue giving me hope....thank you.
It is good to see that some still follow old traditions, even down to the rituals of respect for the game taken, BRAVO!!
Nice video and very nice that you shared this hunting experience with us! Hopefully they will reduce at least some of the dama dama, the forest looks terrible even the bark is peeled from the trees :D
Your videos are visual an audible poetry, keep up the great work.
I always enjoy your beautiful hunting videos. Thank you.
Iam happy to see that there are still some of us. Those, who dont go to kill some animal, but go enjoy nature and are happy even when they dont shoot at some animal.
I like how you presented our European hunting traditions. I like how your videos are done. I like how carefuly you are hunting. And I like your content and style of hunting.
Greetings from
Czech Republic 🌲🇨🇿🌿
PS: I need to visit Hungary now 😁
I am a Hunter too and your Video is one of the best documentations of a hunting
You speaking out of my heard from traditions and rules and the reason we were hunting this way
This Art of hunting fades away between thermalsights and Hightech hunting between higher better faster hunting .
The new sporthunting SUV expenciv clothing and a Hightech rifle
You are a true Hunter so Waidmannsheil and keep your powder dry 😉
Best wishes Frank Galetzka
Congratulations on your successful hunt. Great video.
great video and journey, love the hungarian hunting traditions, i too am very respectful of wild life and would want to give thanks afterwards as well
These traditions are not solely Hungarian. I believe they're Central/Northern European, as we have the same rituals in The Netherlands.
Native Americans also thanked the game for helping to feed the hunter's family and tribe. And almost everything was used in some productive way.
@@YaoiMastah So do the old school Germans.
New subscriber here. I really enjoyed this video. Congratulations on your deer, well done.
Fantastic! What a privilege to see a video like this. It's like you are there.
Weidmannsheil!
Great video, high quality as always!
Thanks for sharing!
Waidmannsheil from Germany!
Thanks for the last bite and your passion
How awesome of a story! Great video, all around first class!
Szeretem ebben volt passió, jó megtartani a régi szokásokat. Sajnos Erdélyben nincsenek szabályok, mindent lelőttek az erdőben most ritkán látunk ilyen szép állatokat.
Dear Cap & Ball,where can one get a bullet greaser like the one shown when you load the maxi-ball? Your answer will be much appreciated.
As usual. An excellent job well explained without bullshit. Keep it up.
My father got a albino blacktail once. He could not tell the color do to the lighting and when he walked up he sawvit was a albino. He always said if he knew he would not have shot. It was the only deer he ever had mounted so it had a special place in our home not for bragging but for remebering. Many tribes were i live have white deer skins and do a special dance, its considered a great honor to a hunter to them. Not for a skilled hunter but for one who respects the sanctity of the land. A badge of honor from the great spirit so to speak.
Great video @Cap and Ball, a helpful tip here for you. Stretch a piece of nylon netting that has small, @ 1/8" holes, over the camera lens and secure it with a stretchy hair tie. You can see right thru it, it disappears from view on camera, and it keeps the lens from producing a glint in sunlight and giving away your position. I feel it must be nearly impossible to hunt with a cameraman in tow so Bravo sir for your ever enjoyable content. Hope this tip helps if you decide to try it. Thanks for your work
Wonderful video. What is the bullet lubricating device called (2:34)? It looks like a very efficient piece of kit. Greetings from Canada
Wow, Now that's how you do a hunting video. Very Impressed!
Absolutely captivating! I really enjoyed this my Hungarian brother!
Majestic and very deep emotional video!!! Congratulation!
I like how representative of a hunting excursion this is. The kill does not take up much of the video’s runtime, and it is simply climax of events. Much more is spent simply taking in the beauty of this indescribably gorgeous world we live in.
Wonderful film and story of tradition. Thank you
That was an utterly beautiful shot!
Great video and what a beautiful nation you have
Very good video, outstanding hunting tradition, of course congratulations on your hunt.
One of the best videos Ive ever seen
What moddle of Jager rifle are you using? Is it the "Hunter" or the "Target Rifle"? I would love to find one and use it for my own hunts as well i love the style and the looks of your rifle.
Great episode! I love REAL bullets and have a set of 45, 50 and 54 caliber molds.
Im at a loss of words, beautiful video. Should be called " A True Hunter"
