Thank you guys for watching and especially thanks to those that have subscribed and followed throughout, I appreciate all the support. I'm looking forward to 2023 and will have offseason videos coming soon. I'll discuss some brands I've been working on, property content, self filming videos, and more. If there is anything in particular you'd like to see, let me know. Thanks again and best of luck this year! Edit: Also, feel free to chime in on the string jumping discussion. Hindsight is 20/20 for me here but to me it really is a guessing game. I think discussions on topics like this are good for us to all keep learning.

Thank you so much for not giving up filming all together. I know creating all the content for us, the fans, is stressful and takes the fun out of hunting sometimes, but yours is top notch and so much appreciated. You and Bill Winke are the top two in my book, you guys just have a knack for explaining hunting like nobody else can. Again thanks for taking us along the hunts!

I think you made the best of what the situation had to offer. Head up, and semi relaxed, is definitely the best option you had, in my opinion. If you had held lower, anticipating the drop, and the deer didn’t drop at all, then you’re likely on a long and grueling track job. There’s so many scenarios that could have happened, you just never can be a hundred percent sure. Congrats on a great season! Looking forward to more great content. Take care and happy hunting!

Jared thanks for taking us on stand with you , your filming is top shelf. Your respect for the game is very is what I love . No fist bumping and having a freak out fest with a cameraman is so,,,, refreshing. A true genuine soul . Let's get some turkeys now . Best of luck.

Thank you for sharing your season with us Jared. I really enjoyed it.

Awsome footage, anytime you can get that close is always a win no matter if there is a kill or not. It's part of the game we play with these magnificent animals!

Hey Jared thanks for all of your videos. They are so well filmed and very enjoyable. I had seen you on MW white tails before but heard you on a podcast recently, wired to hunt. So glad I came to check out your channel! The footage of all the wildlife, scenery, and deer interactions is so nice to watch. I like the relaxed and nature focused style your hunts have. Also the detailed interviews on your strategies are good to hear. Good luck in the future! Thanks!

Absolutely great stuff. I really like that there is no music. I like to hear what you heard while sitting in the stand.

Way to get it done.

Great footage great Contant very enjoyable video. Can’t wait to see more next year.

Thanks for the continued top notch content, can't wait see what's ahead!!

depending on the temperature the speed of sound is between 761 and 1,061 feet/second. no bow can reach that speed and with all the pressure they have gone through it's no wonder you spined him. the farther and closer they are I always hold lower than normal. great job on your harvest and explanation Jared. almost time to chase the wily tom's now. thank you for your video education and work you do for us fellow hunters.

Thanks for sharing this late season run. It’s was so enjoyable to watch and I am so glad you are putting content out there. Been watching you for quite a while and have come to respect you as one of the best out there! Congratulations on an incredible season and cannot wait for what’s in store!

Congrats man, glad it’s coming together for you.

Enjoyed what you put out this year. Excited to see what the future holds. Us normal hunters can't comprehend what hunting for a living entails. Glad you've made a move to make it more enjoyable for you and your family.

Nice Buck last evening🤜🤛

Congratulations Jared on a great season! I was worried a bit we might not see you this fall, so glad that wasn’t the case. I’ve enjoyed following along with you for many years and hope there are many more to come. Wishing you best and much success in the future!

Congratulations on a heck of a season Jared! I'm all about seeing more land management videos and I personally like seeing the transformation that happens a year or more later - more specifically TSI type stuff. Videos explaining your thought process on starting new food plots - prep, determining how big of a plot to create, what to plant, ect. Great video as always, thanks for bringing us along!

Can't wait to go on your hunts with you on camera next year,very proud of you,,you are truly a fine hunter,enjoy everything you share with all of your you tube family,thank you Jared. AWESOME SEASON!!!!

Love you continued content. I don’t have Iowa caliber of deer in my area. I was fortunate enough to shoot a 5-6 year old buck this year( my biggest)!! Glad to see you have a goal of age vs antler score. Not everyone can chase 200” deer, but we can all chase mature animals.

Jared.. I have been watching your hunts for a long time. I love how humble and even keel you are. You are an ethical hunter and you do a phenomenal job filming also. I am going to the Iowa deer classic. Maybe I will see you there.

Awesome videos, Jared. Thank you for all the work you do self-filming and bringing us all along. As far as string-jumping, I agree that it’s a guessing game. That being said, I feel you did the correct thing here. An alert deer simply can’t drop as fast as a deer with their head down because they can’t use their head as leverage. They’re limited by gravity… something super important for all bow hunters to keep in mind.

Heck of a year, Jared. You earned every bit of success you had too. Thanks for bringing us along. As for the string jumping....you are dead on about the head up/head down deal. I missed an old legend on the property I hunt because I shot with his head down. Silly part is I had just given my cousin a pep talk about that like 2 days before due to him doing the same thing. Just caught up in the moment I guess. Luckily I was able to redeem my self 2 evenings later on the same deer. Keep em' coming!

Look forward to the food plot process brother

I’ve seen the same videos about head up Vs. head down. I’ve not noticed a difference. But I would not, in any situation, alert the deer first to get the head up. Head up and calm is different in my opinion. You’re a great shot and hunter, so I’m not pretending I know more, just my opinion. I enjoyed the content, and what an awesome season you had!

Awesome sticking with the bow and not going to the muzzle loader late season when it gets rough like the other guys

Thanks for the videos Jared it’s nice to watch real deer hunting there’s to many over publicized videos out there with loud music and over sponsorship. Looking forward to more videos from you

What a season! I also enjoy my time alone in the woods. It is a time to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and just slow down and enjoy the outdoors.

I remember watching Bill Winke one time talking about deer string jumping he said any shots under 25 yards the deer tend not to drop as much but anything over 30 yards they tend to move more and it's even harder when it's dead quiet just my to cents thanks for letting us tag along with you for an awesome season and such good content

Keep it up, jared! Been watching you for years! It's so nice seeing true hunting, not all this Hollywood stuff that put now! It's nice not hearing you got to buy this. You got to buy that, you just show the raw hunting and ups and downs and the grind, that most don't show! Look forward to you future videos!..... would love to see a breakdown of ur gear!

Congratulations on a great hunt, looking forward to your content for 2023, string jumping happens, not much you can really do about it.

Bow hunting is a passion and when you succeed especially in late season it’s bittersweet. I love bow hunting, and for me I’ve been told take gun and get over with. I’ve also been told you saw how many deer and didn’t get one. It’s not about killing a deer it’s the journey and ups and downs of chasing one specific deer and to be able to succeed after so many sits it’s special. Great buck Jared and especially a great season and what a way to end it.

I didn’t even go out that last day in Iowa, too hot and all the big boys left the public weeks prior...have to figure out a way to remedy that for next season, not having a landowner tag makes for an interesting season, especially if I tag out early.

Congratulations Jared. As I’ve mentioned several times before, you continue to prove that you’re one of the best bowhunters in the country. That being said, this new fad of everyone worrying if the deer’s head is up or down really irritates me. The key is to watch the deer’s ears. I learned years ago to never move when the deer’s ears are swiveled in my direction. Your buck was totally relaxed with his head down and ears forward and he likely wouldn’t have dropped at all when you shot. When you alerted him, both ears were aimed right at you, so he absolutely was going to drop. One other thing…your videos are better with no music at all, like your first few videos.

@jaredmills

Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the input Russell. I agree with you on the ears, those are an important thing to pay attention to, although it's not always a given either. I've went back and looked through a lot of the footage I have of shots on both bucks and does. I found does where they are what I would say is completely relaxed based on everything, including ear position, head down, and they still drop a lot. From what I've seen, I think that body position has to be factored in with alertness level. In my case here, I think "completely relaxed" is a pretty relative term based on all the other conditions- it certainly would not be the same as an early season hunt. Plus, it also appeared he smelled something he didn't like just 10-15 seconds before that, so that could also be factored in. My hunch is that he would have also dropped significantly had I shot him head down there. I could be wrong, but I'm thinking the only thing I could do differently with hindsight (other than not shoot) is aim lower, which obviously comes with risks too. It just seems like it's one of those things where everyone can decide based on their experience, but there doesn't seem to be a one fits all strategy. And again, I think this is a different discussion at a different time of year and/or different weather conditions.
