I realize this is an older video. But there's a shitload of learning experience on it. Wish you guys would do more of these. Never stop learning! I've watched enough of you guys and other people with a cameraman, that's a major help. And I'm not just talking about filming. Thanks guys!
Greg is such a pro self-filmer that the deer he shot never left the frame after getting hit. Pure talent. 18:06

Can you guys make a video describing/detailing what stands out as "bedding area" to yall. Like I see yall are persistent on setting up on bedding area, but when youre walking thru a new public place, what stands out to you, what characteristics shout "bedding" to yall, and then once youve decided thats where you need to set up, how do you decide which trees you want to actually make your stand in?

Been watching for couple years. Be easier to list where they don’t bed. Even when you find a bed hard to determine if used days or nights and whether or not they use regularly. I get they probably don’t like water when cold but I bet many a turkey hunter has spooked one out of water when it’s hot. I have. Just don’t think someone can give you a formula that will guarantee you deer will be in there

Thanks for posting guys, best way to spend 31 minutes and 22 seconds that I can think of
I learned so much from this video, I'll probably watch it again. I love how you show some deer that got away, it helps to keep it real.
The big buck encounters that you guys are consistently getting into are incredible! I’ll definitely be trying to mimic these tactics this year.
The best thing about these top 10 videos......i remember watching them all the 1st time around! Still get the same excitement too!!! Keep up the awesome content men!!!
Man! SO cool to listen to you guys describe exactly what it is you're thinking and WHY. Also, you guys are doing things that have been taboo according to "the experts" for so long. Maybe the biggest aspect of THP success, is that each of you are just as excited to do all the work to film your buddy shooting a slammer buck, as you yourself being the shooter. I just can't describe how vitally important that aspect is!
Don't really care what you guys talk about or do I'm watching 👍, what I love about this video is it shows how aggressive hunting works you have to get out of the comfort zone and go get them 👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I liked how y’all added the harvest footage with the tactics, y’all are great!
Yalls videos are so informational. Its like the only reason that yall make videos is to teach hunters how to hunt other than just hanging a stand and hoping a shooter walks by. Awesome job guys. Stay safe everybody
Top 10 bloopers and top 10 ‘Almost’ Kills
I needed to see this video. I’m needing to switch tactics hunting black tails in CA. High deer density in a low visibility area. Thank you so much!
for sure one of the best tips and tricks video i’ve see from you guys. just started bow hunting and this is gonna be put to play next season keep up the good work!!!
This was an excellent top 10. I like how y'all included success or possible success stories along with each tactic. Also, Greg has to be one of THE best at solo filming hunts while being successful.
That was great reliving those hunts, incredible tactics all coming together. You guys do a great job. So much fun to watch!
Ive been watching for a couple years, and by far my favorite one.
Now it's 98 degrees at my home watching this with Aaron in snow killing a nice buck I'm ready for fall guning season Keep em rolling I'll watch
You guys are amazing especially the ground kills unbelievable footage. Darren
Very educational ! Also seen all of these videos and enjoyed every one of them. ! THP has inspired me to take my 1st public land Kansas trip this year. Pumped to try some of the mentioned techniques in this video. Awesome, channel ! Thanks THP.
Great episode, love seeing those past hunts. Gets me pumped for this season.
You guys are teaching some woodsmenship which is a lost art nowadays keep up the great work!
I'd love to see a video of the whole process of making a video worthy to put out for us. As far as the editing process and what programs you guys use to what cameras. Think it would make for a great video for guys wanting to self film and dont know where to start.
One of the best videos I have watched on KZread. Educational and entertaining!
I'm always entertained when watching this channels videos. I'm always inspired to try harder and never give up.
You have to be versatile with hunting public land! Great video, showing all the different methods that public land, makes you battle with. If you wanna be successful, then you have to be versatile!
Another great video guys!! Aaron looked like he just dropped his ice cream cone in the dirt when the buck winded their ground scent. Been there done that myself! Stay safe, Cubby
Drew my first Iowa whitetail tag this year and will be tackling public land so thank you guys for the video!!!!! You guys keep putting out great material! I appreciate what y’all do!

Thank you for everything you guys do it is help me so much I have everything to bow hunt for the first time I've shot a lot of good bucks on public land with a shotgun but never with a bow thanks to you I'm going to try it keep doing what you're doing thank you....
Your videos are full of great content and valuable information. You guys are just a bunch of hard workers. Keep it up.
I really like to see all of you guys hunt together as in same video and pair up and hunt. Love y’all
Nice tips... and fun reliving some of these moments with yall. Thanks!!
Awesome video! Transformative for this public lands hunter! Thank you!!!
Early season scouting oak trees would be helpful, our season in MS starts oct 1st. Love all the videos!
I am jealous. You guys are amazing. I started hunting at 14 with hopes and dreams. I didn't have anybody to teach me.I had to learn everything the hard way. 33 years later all I have the show is a small box of Spike horns and I usually manage to keep some meat in the freezer.
Awesome hunts, thanks guys. In future videos It would be nice to see a quick recap of the tactics in the info section before all the gear links or something to go back and reference quickly. Loved the episode, Keep up the good work!

Lol just because you don't get any bucks doesn't mean you need to stop people from killing "smaller bucks". Stop trying to mask your trophy hunting with "what's best for the population". If older bucks had no antlers you'd be shooting small bucks too.
We would like to see how you guys pack for let's say a public land challenge, or anywhere else you are setting up a campsite. What kind's of food do you bring, do you bring firewood or buy/find your own when you get there? There's only so much room in a vehicle, would love to see what you guys bring as necessities.
For each time you talked about a tactic I would click off in my head "that's like à certain spot I know". Great job as always.
Very impressed on Weird Al's stalking skills. I love videos that are not sitting over food plots
Watched this a few times. Trying to learn stuff. Thanks.
Awesome type of video. Definitely helpful for a new hunter like me.
Top 10 favorite hunts from over the years! Voted by THP crew or make a pole for the fans to vote! I have a hard time myself deciding! Love all the THP hunts!
Great info fellas. Being new in the on x app I'm still trying to figure out how to figure out the contour lines and what they mean and how you guys read them and how to figure out if it's a ridge top I'm seeing or a deep gully etc. and info on this would be awesome. As always be safe and stay healthy my friend.
Would like to see yall come south (Florida) we get some 170s in the panhandle. Our deer aren't as big but their hunted twice as hard which makes them quite educated
Very cool video. Your tactic’s are great. Thanks for sharing them with us. Good luck this fall.
Top notch guys, Love it. The new season will be here soon.
Great video can’t wait to see all the great deer hunting this season from you guys
Tearing me up with these videos! On the countdown side of summer whooo
I love pond areas out with good transition areas from big oaks I love hill side's but then thermals come into play . I have a state land area I love it. It has radish out there now with tall big oaks ask you go in the timbers lots of small rolling hills go down into a giant old drain ditch witch it's thick pond kinda marsh area that is beat with trails and you can tell it's highly traveled and it's deep and far out not many can handle that hike and dragout so there's plenty of mature deer in this area .
Great video! Thanks for for all the reminders!!!
Great series guys!
Keep up the great work! Great tips I couldn't agree more with u guys!
Fanatastic video guys! Gets me PUMPED for season!!
I always wonder... A well done video like this that provides good useful information on a topic that you're aware of when you click on the title. Who clicks dislike on this? Do anti's go around constantly disliking hunting videos or is it a seriously hard to satisfy individual grading the cinematic content? Ha. It just always seems like there's a small number of thumbs down and I can't help but wonder why.
I d like to see a video of what you guys use for scent... and why you use it and the areas you guys use it in and wht kinda scent u guys use on you’s
Thanks for the tips guys
👍 Great Advice ! - I hunted a public area once, before watching this. I couldn't wait and brimming with excitement, got in well before daylight and quietly settled in. Soon the woods would be waking up and all the gifts nature has to offer would slowly reveal themselves. It was my favorite time, as dew lifted and the sounds of life emerge. Or so I thought. An hour AFTER the sun came up, the first of endless hunters started making their way past my tree, in search of their elusive quarry. They stomped in circles until noon (they were 'still' hunting I guess), then most stomped back to their respective trucks and beer coolers. A few seemed to hunt in pairs, so they could enjoy loud conversation, while stalking. The entertainment for me was seeing the look of defeat on their faces, as they did laps around my stand, reasoning that no deer resided in that part of the county. One hunter (and I use that term with hesitation) even marched by at 15 yards, pausing to take a leak, then opted to fling an arrow "at" an unsuspecting beer can he found nearby, to hone his shooting skills. Two others, I got to know well, even though they never saw me. They spread out within sight of each other, (one under me) and stayed in close communication via radios. They kept each other abreast of all movement they spotted during the days hunt, as well as discussed work, spirts and their distain for their small kids and big wives. No bothering with whispering, since deer can't hear. My favorite had to be the "prepared" hunter, who walked in wearing slacks, casual loafers and a brand new camo t-shirt and hat. He grasped a new hang-on tree stand (no ladder or steps) and a camping stool. He carried a bow from the mid 60's and his quiver kept falling off, spilling his three arrows, one with a field point. On his belt was a variety of deer calls, knives, hatchet, compass, depth finder, safety glasses and several accessories he didn't need. He also sported an orange/black camo school backpack, complete with tupperware containers to secure the rotisserie chicken, potato salad, steamed veggies and what appeared to be Baked Alaska for dessert. After dining on a log, his departure was marked by the jingling of his minivan keys with every step. Of all these mighty outdoorsmen, only one knew I was there the entire time and that's only because of his decision to select a nearby spot upwind, remove Charmin from fanny pack and squat under a tree. At this point I whistled, revealing my covert ambush spot and thwarting his intended blissful deposit. Sadly, I too saw no deer (or squirrels, or birds) that morning, and decided to relocate for the afternoon sit. No buck that afternoon either, although I saw does and other wildlife, which was a treat. Yeah, it was lonely that afternoon in comparison and lacked the aforementioned entertainment, but man!, was it nice.

Man I would love to hunt with you guys, the learning experience would be amazing!
At 8:33 when the buck spooked, it sounds to me like a bird told on you. As soon as you drew back a bird started making what sounded like a warning call. And the buck perked up as soon as it started.
Could you do a live Q and A with anyone who’s willing to answer where they would set up a stand on a topo/hybrid map that everyone can see and you all can critique that spot as to why you would/wouldn’t set up there? This type of constructive criticism is what helps me learn.
Most excellent video!!!!
Great video... Thanks
