Well here it is please let me know what you think....

Please keep in mind I use cheap cameras , cheap gear , and am trying to keep it simple. Hunts and gear and projects that anyone could do. Anyway let me know what you think , I have enough footage to do another 20 vids. Hope you enjoy it...

Good work on the huntin', and the vid!    :thumbsup:  Did you ever find your broadhead?

Is your KLR a 650 thumper?  What was the bike at the beginning of the vid?    :confused:

Cool Video!  Great hunting and shootin there.  Way to go on the video production, looks like some challenge doing that alone.

Good luck in Mason , I'm going to Kerrville for a hog or exotic this weekend...

Yes I bought a used 2015 KLR 650 Thumper and have it rigged out for some adventure hunting and fishing trips..

The bike in my intro is a barn find Old Suzuki 750 I did a full build on , it's the bike in the last pic on the intro with the green tank...

Yes it's not easy running the cameras by myself , my action cam is a $60 knock-off ( works great though ) my other cams are cheap $150 ones from box stores but get the job done. My editing software was $100 , takes me and my son about 4hours for a 20min vid.

My YouTube channel ( KLR Woodsman ) is about DIY projects and Trad bowhunting , fishing , being self reliant , adventure trips with bow and arrow . Stuff anyone can do and afford ...

I really hope everyone enjoys it...

Nice!
I like that you show a few misses in there along with the success.
Good job putting it together I have done a little video editing and it is much harder than it might seem before you jump into it.

What limbs do you have on that ILF bow?

Good job on the video. Ducks with traditional archery equipment is a novelty for sure. Hope you had a duck hunting permit and Federal stamp. If not, someone might be calling on you after viewing this video. Have a great 2018.

No worries I'm all legal...

Very human with the misses matter of fact I got a great miss on Video just an hour ago on a beautiful bobcat. But in all fairness I pretty sure I took some hair off him...

Great Job...you are always welcome on my place.  
PS> you are one lethal dude!!  I think you've 12 ringed every animal you shot this year.  

Also,  for anyone wanting to know what a good friend is. I made a bad hit on a nice axis buck on Thanksgiving day this year.  I called Sam to tell him and he drove and hour and a half (on Thanksgiving day!) to help me find him.  We got him (with no blood to follow). I would have NEVER found him without Sam's woodsmanship and tracking skills.

Post by: SAM E. STEPHENS on January 08, 2018, 11:58:00 PM
Thanks for the kind words , this last year has been great I was fortunate enough to make some good shots an a few. As for the help with the axis buck that's just normal routine I'm always just a call away.....

Oh yea that kayak is my little 8 footer that I use in small creeks ( I have 5 kayaks ) the ones better suited for this are at another place. So far I haven't rolled that little one yet it is actually pretty solid little yak....

That is a cool video and I've been trying to do some filming myself and know how tough it can be so good for you being successful at it.
