A big thumbs up from me. Your passion and dedication to what you love is very well portrayed in your videos. The walking scene at the start was so well done, loved it👍. A lot of time away from the actual hunt goes into making these videos, something majority don't see. So I for one really appreciate the end product we all get to see. Not much in life is free but KZread is pretty close to it. So thanks again for going the extra mile. I also get a laugh seeing you get the mandatory "thumbs down". Maybe they just need a hug, some loving, some chocolate or my favourite, M&M's🤣😂😂. If that doesn't work they can always dial a friend, good luck with that😂😂😂😊. Keep up the good work👍👍👍

Pat James might look a little red in the camera Pat but it’s a very bright orange. Most hunters will have some blaze orange on them so other hunters can see them easily. It’s coming from a safety aspect as we all share the public space and helps other hunters identify or distinguish us from potential game. 👍🏾

Zac Roberts yep spot on. Deer will readily be attracted to turned over soil. Logging coops, land slides, graded tracks, tilled paddocks will attract lots of macro pods as well as bovines. I’ve used this technique many times to attract deer to an area on private land to photograph. Take a pic or shovel ona well used game trail. Turn over a section of trail and put a camera over it. You’ll see good results of interest on that spot. I’ve even had deer scrape than spot so hard they ended up creating a wallow from it👍
