My hats off to you for making an educational video like this. I sincerely appreciate it. Bravo good sir. Keep up the great videos.

Actual truth what happens in the field lol

You guys are awesome hunters to me, I'm positive you're not the first youtuber to miss a shot ...ok maybe on film lol

As usual, great content. All can say is its better to miss than making a crappy shot and not recovering the deer. Keep up the grind. Buck on!!!!!

I appreciate how humble you are. Thanks for sharing the hunts.

Sometimes it be like that. “Nothing is more expensive than regret”. We all try and make perfect shots every hunt, but if anyone who bow hunts tells you they ain’t never made a bad shot, they’re either a liar or haven’t hunted very long. Keep up the videos, better days ahead.

Been there, done that! Great vids. Hunted S. FL all my life. There's nothing else like it!

Great video Mark! You’ll get him.

Me and my buddy have met y’all in a wma up here in zone C the last couple years and it’s always been a pleasant experience talking to y’all. I had this exact same thing happen on a buck hot on a doe but for some reason hung up about 10 yards be hind her and i forgot to adjust my pin and right under his arm pit went the arrow and he was gone. So I know the feeling but I know you hunt hard and will have another shot. Stay safe this season

Great Video again!

Dang Mark! That's a tough one. You'll get him next time. Glad he didn't get hurt. No harm no foul. I had a feeling by the reply text message from ya last week that he got away haha Also, I know it's not in everyone's budget, but I got a burris oracle when they came out (they're cheaper now) and it is a GAME CHANGER. No more rangefinding. No more unnecessary movement. Draw when the shot presents itself, range, aim, shoot. It's unbeatable. I highly recommend. Keep up the great FL hunting content!

Yea I know. I’ve thought about it but I’ve also heard of those thing failing and not ranging right in the moment. I also try to go out of state a few times a year n a lot of states don’t allow them. -Mark

Practice shooting from your treestand, at a 3D target… 40 is no chip shot!… have your buddy keep moving it a little and see if you can adjust without ranging it again.👌

Going into my first year of bow hunting this kind of information is invaluable to me. Thanks

Great video 📹 👍🏾 👏🏾

Hey thanks for your videos, what are beauty berries I think I called them something else is there another name for beauty berries, what tree do they grow on?

Just Google beauty berries, you’ll find a bunch of pictures

At least the buck is healthy and still alive. And you can hunt him again next weekend!

Happens to the best of em

Should have aimed low not mid body shoot the heart most of time they dip and roll so if you shoot heart if they dip it's high shoulder

Hindsight is 20:20. But I wouldn’t aim low. Of all the deer I’ve shot, only one duck the string and it was a doe at 15 yds staring em right at me. My bow is surprisingly quiet and deer just don’t seem to react to it… it’s weird. Watch that slow motion replay… that deer had a lot of time to reacted and it didn’t move until The arrow hit behind it. I’d rather aim center mass and avoid bone than accidentally hit a hit low and drill him in the humerus. Thanks for watching -Mark

Stuff happens

I have learned a good bit of knowledge from you and Danny. Keep up the content. Great info. What broadleaf do you use?

How high are you shooting from looks over 20ft?

@@SwampNStomp seems like a happy medium weight. I guess the only downside to heavy arrows is less forgiveness in situations like that. At least you shot where you were aiming though, I would have sent it a foot over his back just because I was so nervous 😂

You can't shoot 'em from the couch,and if you aren't missing, you aren't shooting enough. It's called "hunting" for a reason. Everyone misses,it's part of life. Shake it off and pull thru the next shot with more conviction. NEXT...

How high are you getting up and how? Looks like you’re about to start tipping the tree over lol good hunting man. Northwest Florida hunter here I’m getting so excited for the season

We like to get to about 30ft. I was at 27ft in this video. Nothing conceals movement and scent better than being a mile High. The safest way to climb is SRT. Staying on a loaded rope from bottom to top. We will also one stick, but it’s definitely Not the safest climbing method. -Mark

That’s what I like to get in my climber. But I’ve got a buddy hunting with me this year so I bought a saddle and I’ve made my own aider and I’m topping out at about 24 feet. It’s amazing what just a few feet difference makes. I’m not one of the guys that is fine at 20 feet unless that’s the only tree in the area and that’s all I can do. I like swaying when the breeze blows lol happy hunting brother we’re about to order some of yalls camo as well. Love what you’re doing man

If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not hunting. Get a Leupold range finder. Give up the coin. It will make a big difference. Shit happens and that’s how we learn. If you killed them every time, it wouldn’t be hunting, it would be killing.

Sucks

Should be a little more aware of your surroundings... not necessarily while in a tree stand... Just saying...

That shot was terrible, MAKE that deer stop. Would have been a gut shot either way if you got the distance right. No harm no foul learn for next time, which it looks like you have.

Clearly you didn’t watch the whole video cause I mention that in the video. But hey liver and gut shot deer still die and I find them so I would have taken the liver hit. Not ideal but I’ll take it. Thanks for watching. Don’t ever stop being perfect! -Mark

@@SwampNStomp I watched till The end, and I’ve made bad shots too. I like how you evaluated it at the end to see what you did wrong. (Sorry if it came off a bit harsh) That wouldn’t have been liver however. (I own a tracking dog and go on hundreds of recoveries a year) Check our ranch fairy if you haven’t and the vital v. Good luck this year and get back after them!
