@dakotah rose Right on. These are the types of videos that continue to teach me even as an adult, on what type of father to be, since I didn't have an example in my life. Hopefully, my kids will be thankful one day for me, showing them all things I didn't experience.

Hey folks, thanks for watching! I know some of you will have questions about Fen's setup so here it is. He's shooting a sinew backed osage recurve pulling around 30lbs@26". The arrows are Traditional Only carbons from 3Rivers. Up front I've got a 50 grain insert and 150 grain Grizzly broadhead. The first hog went down within 30 yards, the second within 70 or so. The second shot broke a rib on entry and stopped in the opposite side of the chest cavity. The arrows were made by Andy over at AddictiveArchery.com Also, huge thanks to Scott Crippen for inviting us down to this amazing place. Scott is trying to build his KZread Channel with some amazing traditional bowhunting content so please take a minute to head over to Lost Arrow Films and give him a sub. I see some great content coming!

Hi Clay. 30 pounds is too little to kill a wild boar. Could it be that the issue is putting a lot of weight on the front of the arrow? Thank you very much for the video.

@ Manuel González Zambrano Weight forward adds in penetration not detracts. Rearward weight causes the shaft to bend in the middle slowing momentum, increasing breakage, & decreasing stability in flight. A 30# draw will easily take game, many if not most Native American bows were either light weight in draw or highly inefficient at their weight, more likely both. Yet they consistently killed large game with them.

Tell Fen he's an idol to younger boys. My son is 5 and loves coon and rabbit hunting and calls himself a "gopher hunter" with his bow. He said he wants to be like Fen when he's older! Thanks for the great videos for us to watch together

you have been blessed with a wonderful son, and you are killing it as a father! these moments are what makes life worth living, it is awesome that you are able to record them. as time goes by, these moments fade- having them on video preserves them forever.

There is nothing more satisfying than watching your children walking in your footsteps. Keeping the tradition alive.

He's turning into one hell of an outdoorsman. The fact that he was so quick to voice his concern over the shot placement (despite being decent) is very proving of his character. awesome job, and wonderful to see.

Hey Clay, I think your content is awesome and you're a great dad.

Keep up the awesome work and thanks for the great content!

Fen is a legit sniper! Well done young man!

Bro, I got teary eyed at 15.11 when you two embraced each other and your spirits soared together! Took me back to my own childhood and the memories of my own Dad's excitement over my first nice buck.

The lad is not so cautious with his shots. That's why he beats dad to the shot...and he connects also. The makings of a very good traditional bow hunter... I am sure there is still more on the ground for his father to teach him. We become good at what we do and we make our kids better. Your boy will become the sum of all you have done ..and then some Clay. I was lucky enough to have these moments with my son and daughter... they are priceless. Happy Hunting Clay and son!

Yes sir yes sir not only making memories but putting meat on the table…… Nice…. Thanks Clay for taking us along

You can tell he has a good teacher and nerves of steal. Great hunt I really enjoyed it

Clay being absolutely flustered by Fen just stealing all the shots is hilarious. At first, I was gonna comment something positive about how Fen gets to go hunting with his dad and the "big boys", but now maybe you should've left him at home, so you could get some shots off 😂 Lovely video.

I'm not a father but I would not be more prouder of my kid if they pulled something like that off, keep it up.

That was awesome! I was rooting for Fen and laughing at the same time. The kid can shoot!

When I could hunt I always felt that the stalk was the best part, often I could move in on my game undetected, there were times when I got so close I could touch it. But then we all have those days when you blow it so bad you barely got close enough to see them. LOL good memories.

I did the same thing with deer here in southwest Ohio before the deer population exploded in the early 90's. I just took the still hunting skills from squirrel hunting for 25 years and usually kept my shots on deer to 25 to 30 feet with my Fred Bear #40 pound bow. When the deer population exploded in my part of the state. Squirrel hunting stopped 100% as everbody bought a tree stand and lectured their farm relatives to keep other hunters away. When a .22 or shotgun went off - guys with less than a year hunting experience would get furious. Now nobody really learns to still hunt for squirrels.

Fen is a straight up killa!!! Congratulations guys on some awesome memories

My dad grew up like this, never took the time to teach me. Good job man.

I think there's something to be said there, When you tell the older gentleman goodluck, And he says have fun!

Go Fen!!!!! Keepn' Dad on his toes!! Step it up, Clay!🤣🤣🤣 A priceless memory!!❤️

Awesome hunt with Fen! Man, he was getting it done! Really good population of hogs, good to take some out. Can’t imagine what it would be like for that young man to be out on a hunt with his father and Flip. Will be a memory he’ll treasure forever. Thanks for sharing
