I know this is a old video. However you are a inspiration and I'm starting my up hill climb sorta speak. In life and in the archery world. Got divorced recently. It was a wake up call that I need to refocus my life. I'm fixing to start exercising and working out again. Picked up a 200 dollar pos bow to try archery hunting and 3d. I've fallen in love with the sport idk if I ever will be able to afford a better setup. But I'm gonna keep hammering with my trusty 200 dollar setup and that included arrows release sight excetra. And u have been a inspiration

Cam, there may be no meaning to this video but these are the kind that I enjoy. Just chill, relaxed, shooting bows and having a chat.

There's a meaning. Ever wonder why they only do Hoyt? Agreed, Hoyt s a decent brand but I believe that's the "meaning" of these videos; advertisements. :)

I finally found something about you I don't like. You have flames on your truck. lol

These are my favorite videos that you post. Simple down to earth and even life motivating. Thanks!

Man your videos motivate me to go out and shoot my bow and run. If it weren't for people like you in this world staying positive and motivating people to do what they love I don't know what we would do. Keep on being the way you are. I thank you for all you do for people like your friend with cancer, that makes me wanna go out and help someone with less than me. Thank You.

you're an inspiration! me and my daughter love to watch you here on KZread , your FB page and any time you are on tv. thank you for putting in the time to share your passion with us!!

Cam you are truly an inspiration, two things a dearly want is to be deadly accurate with a bow and to get in better shape and your videos are a huge help!

Love it, but was really hoping to see the grouping at the end. We all like to see how good you're groups are to be inspired and motivated by.

One of the best videos on youtube. I am only new to archery but your outlook on archery and life is inspiring. Doesn't matter whether the path is going to be hard or easy. It's just the path. Thank you.

I loved archery as a kid. I felt some kind of connection with it that I couldn't explain as I'm sure most children would have a hard time articulating that feeling. I'm going on 31 now and it's been probably 20 years since I shot a bow. I just picked up a Hoyt Torrex a week ago and haven't missed a morning of shooting yet-- usually shooting for a minimum of 90 minutes. I've pored over archery videos on KZread to feed my obsession when I'm not looking through the sights. Shooting a bow has been a sort of meditation for me and continuing to get to know you and your perspective has stoked the fire that I didn't know was still there. I am inspired by your work ethic and your joy, Cam. Thank you for being a positive presence in this new-to-me community.

love listening to you talk. With the time change and work it's hard to get out to the range before sun down, so week days i spend shooting in the house. It's only 8 yards, but it still makes me happy getting a chance to pull the string back and letting some arrows fly.

Hi Cam, I live in urban Dallas ,Texas.... The flatlands. I don't have much of a place to shoot, but for some reason I find myself trying to hammer just like you do hoping I can grow up to get a trophy elk and my work will pay off. Just know your a real inspiration to me. Keep Hammerin'

Great video Cam, shooting the bow is one of the few ways I can relax:) You are truly an inspiration to me and I hope one day our paths will cross.

Hey Cam, so since i started listening to Joe on the podcast i started thinking about getting a bow. My late uncle was a PH here in South Africa so it hit near and dear too me. Then i started watching your vids, now its all i can think about. I am going to buy a second hand bow really soon and get into the life style. Thanks for being you!!!

You are absolutely correct there is nothing negative about shooting your bow and getting a great workout in.

You're a good guy Cam,thanks for the video keep up the work brother.

Cam you make shooting bow look so awesome man. Cant wait to get a hoy t! Keep Hammering. Wont stop until I can someday pull 90lbs! youre the man!

Gosh Cam these vids you post are just great and are motivating me to just live a better life far as working out, eating clean, running and shooting my bow. My nephew and I was out last night doing some low light shooting and he asked me when you going to pick up a new bow I said when I stop shooting good with this one lol yea of course I'd love to get a new bow someday but don't have the extra $ so ill stick with my Martin Moab lol but keep these videos coming they are very encouraging.

I just recently started shooting bows a couple years ago. And boy do I need a lot of practice lol. Been watching your videos and I'm a fan of your motivation to keep practicing. Keep hammering.

Hey Cam... First time commenting. love your hunting & shooting videos. Just bought a used, lefty, Hoyt Ultra Mag, after years of rifle, stand & ground hunting, its time to take it to the next level. Have been slingin arrows all summer, and you're right... nothing sucks about this!!! Peace, from the Minnesota lake country. DB... Keep up the good work!

My bow is a few years old. I am blessed that when I'm healthy I shoot a little just about every day. I have ONE bow. + ONE old man and shot placement you get from familiarity. If I cannot shoot I work on shooting muscles. If given the opportunity to shoot a little every day, how could one turn up their nose at that opportunity. Thanks Cameron for conveying the simple joy of watching the arrows fly.... and noticing their significant impact.

what sucks is u gotta go get ur arrows😂😂😂

Focus. Commitment. Dedication. I love it, I need more of it...

Just got my first bow this week. I've learned tons from you about setup and shooting. I use similar equipment because you better than anyone I've ever seen. But boy do we differ about a lot of stuff. I love beer and I'm farmer strong don't waste time in the gym. But I was shooting super tight groups out to 60 yards first day of shooting by emulating your style. Thanks for sharing.

I love these small videos, keep them coming. Keep Hammering!

Great video! Best part was the opening... what sux about shooting your bow? NOTHING

I just got into bow shooting, really, mostly a bit here and there for the past few weeks, and just on a cheap bow, or at least compared to that Hoyt Nitrum. And its fun, a lot of fun. But dam! Never seen a guy so happy all the time in his videos when he is just holding one, or about shooting a bow, hes always got that smile like its like Christmas all the time. Its cool stuff though. More power to ya I suppose.

I had a really bad day at work on Monday, Tuesday was an improvement but not ideal. It came on a fairly stressful fortnight. Tuesday night I was at the range shooting. It was pure joy. Most of the shots and groups were solid, be even those outside the ring were a pleasure to deliver.

Anyone else keep coming back to this video? This must be my 70th viewing. Its just is so inspiring, KEEP HAMMERING 🔨 🔨 Cam!!!

I totally agree with you I want to keep on shooting shot after shot. Sometimes I have to force myself to stop but I catch myself nocking another arrow event though I told myself I was done. It is like therapy for the mind and soul.

My answer was "Nothing" before I hit play! Keep them coming bro...

Love watching this type of video from you cam!

There is 1 side of bow shooting. It's going out and getting the arrows if you miss. Took me a hour to find one

A lil tip where ever your shooting, replace your neck the brightest unique color of the ground it helps alot brody

Damn your an inspiring person, wish we coulda saw the grouping though! Never get tired of watching your vids. I think you should put out a new DVD cam.

"Nothing sucks about shooting a bow" Probably one of the most accurate things ever said.

Don't worry about purpose of the video. I like watching and feeling like I am chillin' with you on the range for a few minutes. BTW, I am planning to buy my first bow this April based off all your specs you have on 'my gear' section of your site. Thanks!

Shoot my bow 3-4 times each week. Nothing sucks about that! Loo forward to that and running in the hills every week. Thanks for sharing. Great positive attitude. Thanks Cam!

I swear it looks exactly like you are punching the trigger every damn time, but you're killing it! hahahahaha.

Lol , that was awsome , my wife goes to just sit n read when I shoot . And that was perfect , She is always asking me Y I shoot so much , She was sitting here reading while I am watching this , and for you to say that was perfect .

Nothin, Duuuude i love u, i knew before u say this. Greets from Germany

I wholeheartedly agree about finding motivation to workout. If you ask yourself, "am I going to go workout, or am I going to wimp out?" You have already lost. Quitting is habit forming. Each time it gets easier to rationalize why you're quitting. Make a workout plan and stick to it. The only question should be, "how much am I going to enjoy my workout today?" Not "am I going to workout today"

Hey Cam what brand is your pin sight? Definitely a huge fan and have been out with my bow everyday since I bought it.

it is nice if you can go out every day to shoot, here in canada the ranges are no more than 20 yards. if you are in shape and shoot lots you will get very good at shooting bows. you have a lot of great information thanks. PS what do you have for a rest on that bow.

Cameron Hanes, ur a stud. if ur not a role model idk who is. We both like to lift and shoot bows. I dont enjoy hunting with a gun half as much as witt a bow! Keep doing what ur doing brother

Awesome job on your water Buff vid comments were disabled. Probably my fav vid all time !!

Thanks for the new video! Beast Mode!

Love these vids cam. Nice setup mate, love the bow. Waiting on my carbon spyder zt turo in blue to be in, got about 2 weeks left to wait. Watching you're videos makes me want it more and more lol. I also shoot a quest radical everyday. when i can't, if i wake up to late, i get in a very cranky mood tll i can shoot again. I live in the suburbs unfortunately, and the guy next to me works nights and has a wife and young kid at home, so i only shoot from 12pm till 5pm so i don't wake up the baby. I'm a night owl so it's very hard to fall asleep before 2 most times 5am, thats with sleeping aids witch knock me out for 12 hours. insomnia is a bitch, without sleeping aids i can't get to sleep. I often wake up at 3pm leaving only 2 hours to shoot, but i try and remember that lots of people don't even get that a day or even a week and i should feel lucky. Wish i had someone to shoot with. Going huntng soon with my father and his mate, Hunting goat, rabbit wild pig and fox on 1000 acre private land. Need lot's of practice before my hunt. Sorry for the long post, no one in my house wants to hear me talk about my sport, only have the web for that😭

wish i had sponsors or lots of money to have a bow like yours maybe one day ill get to that level. i know you worked long an hard to get there. even if i never get there ill still be happy to have a bow in my hands no mater what it is. at least i have one to shot. just like you said nothing sucks about shooting a bow

What sucks is when the only range around closes down and you live in an area where it's damn impossible to set up a safe range.

I live in the projects so no range anywhere in a tiny apartment with 3 people and I still do it with a youth bow and cardboard boxes, if you wanna shoot just shoot imo it's still really fun and easier to get your arrows back when it's a few feet too.

man u are the best man to ever live

@CH, you're a lucky man. I can only shoot my bow for about 4 hours on a Saturday afternoon (when I'm not working Saturdays). open public land is no-go for any kind of archery shooting here in the uk (air rifles & shotguns are ok, but not bows/crossbows)

sometimes the simple things keep us happy

I agree you in this one 100%

I am close to live like this man

I loved that book read it twice

I wish I could get that motivation, but it's getting there. Last hunting season was miserable for me. Couldn't hike, back hurt, no oxygen. Doc told me my back was breaking and I needed to lose 60-100 lbs. 8 months later I am down 36lbs and feel better but there are still lots of days I would rather sit and watch you shoot then hit the gym

This video really helped me think positively today. Thanks for sharing it!

Good vid melo i like it just starting in the sport

You're a dude my friend! Life's simple, people fuck it up and make it difficult! You've got the formula right! KH!!!

The only people who say they dont care about money, are the ones who have a lot of money. Like Cameron Hanes.

If I could ask you to do one thing besides to "keep hammering" I'd tell you to keep making videos like these, there's people that can only find enjoyment in shooting a bow then there's people like me that find every aspect to do with archery enjoyable.

Какой лук посоветуешь для новичка, для охоты, для ходовой охоты в лесу...заранее благодарен

Having watched a number of your hunting videos it seemed like when the bow set after you drew it back it makes a snappy sound and i wondered why i didn't spook the prey but this bow seems silent when it sets.

I turned 40 last year and just before turning 40 I discovered archery. I can't think of anything else that centers me like shooting that bow. It calms my demons.

I'm diggin' it, Cam. Cool vid.

Only downside I see is that it hurts my shoulder if I shoot it too much

Those wood grips are ok but your right, I shoot my bow so much that the hole where they mnt.them to the bow , gave me a blister from grabbing it and pulling back. Even though I have a loose grip. So it's now customized, my wife tried telling me it was cause I shot it for 8 hrs.

I am new to shooting and have been doing it everyday for about 2 weeks now..... my shoulders and elbows are killing me do i need to take a break?

I clicked on this video and thought man I wonder what he's gonna say I can't think of anything that sucks about shooting a bow, and then you said nothing so just wanted to let you kniw😂😂😂

Where do you get those wrist straps?!

What do you think of fobs instead of the normal vanes

Not driving a custom King Ranch F-150...that’s for sure. I don’t mind the flames, because they’re not red or orange.

Relationship goals should be, "Find someone who looks at you like Cameron Hanes looks at his bow."

Whatsup Cameron may you please tell what arrows are you shooting and were did you get them from Thanks Dude.... :D

The point of your video is so that I can watch it and learn your technique....Dear Sir...

Bow giveaway in Louisiana? I bet a shit load of people would show up!

Hey cam what sight and bracket are you using bro?

What a great video

I've got a craze mission ii or something like that it was 1,150$ or something like that again got it at bass pro shop it is a good bow

while watching this im all eating a butterfinger and drinking a starbucks coffee drink hahahaa, ohhh the lost unmotivated veteran ive become, i need to find that motivation again but its been hard lol

Dead right my man🤙🤙🤙

What kind of sight are you rocking there?

Do you happen to know how it stacks up to the HHA Optimizer or Kingpin?

You should try my $80 bow. Have to do three checks on it every time before I release. My single pin sight goes from about 18-44 yards. Yea I don't get it either, but I understand the love of shooting, just frustrated by lack of progress.

Always checking that peep..lol

Your fear is the fear of failure...

Losing arrows sucks when you robinhood it when shooting bow and you just got those arrows

Dudes got the eyes of The Buddha. Peaceful, Blissful.

Nothing sucks about shooting a bow

Hey Cam. are your going with carbon or alloy this year? did the Carbon turbo ZT last year and just ordered the defiant turbo might be 3 months before its here LOL. well i know your LOaded with comments. so ill just wait and see. keep hammering #Bestmode
