Traditional bows makes a good bow hunt just that much better !!!!
Love it. Bow hunting with recurves and longbows is so much more challenging and rewarding. Congrats!
yes , can you imagine the Mexican Indians with no gadgets and gidgets hunting deer? good hunt
Of all the deer I’ve harvested I still remember my first recurve deer vividly. Definitely a challenge.
Many years ago, my wife drove to from Pa to Ohio to get a picture of you while holding my daughter! She is a die hard Turkey hunter still to this day. My daughter was only 2 then and is 19 now. Just want to encourage you with the impact you and your team have had on our family over the years! Again, love you man.
@text1781 you been reporting for scamming
So hard with a feeder😂😂😂😂😂
@@JTC7007 if it puts meat on the table, I ain't gonna complain
So ur wife drove hours to see another man is what I’m hearing
Atta boy Waddi! You're among the best in this industry
Heck yeah! Nothing like taking the old traditional equipment out once in a while
Trad gear is such a riot! I switched 10+ years ago and never went back. Great job self taping too. That’s not easy.
Awesome video Michael! Way to get it done with the recurve! And even gave a reference to Ishi! Much respect brother!
You can never go wrong with a classic
Great hunt Michael, love that you broke out the curve brother!
Oh what a great feeling. Good stuff.
Been shooting trad for almost 6 yrs, killed a bear, 3 bucks and 7 does, and a big ol Lonbeard! Would love to see ya stick with it and put some more trad hunts on TV! My daughter asked yesterday if there were any hunting shows that didn't use training wheels lol. congrats in a beautiful doe!
Traditional!!! That's what I'm talking bout!!!
Nice shot there with the trad style of bow. Not only did you do as good a clean kill as you could you also gave thanks and respect to the doe.
Congratulations Michael! My first buck was with a old Ben Pearson #45 recurve.
That to been a rush! Ol Waddy froze in the tree. Sick!
Now your huntin and enjoying the Trad Way you should have seen the smile on your face and the excitement in your voice says a lot. You found something special and put the fun in the hunt and accomplishment. Enjoy!
Congratulations waddy that was awesome
No it don’t ever get old, I love that!! Thanks MW!!
Love it, love it wish you would do more with recurves. Love to see a whole show with the whole crew shooting recurves. At big bucks that would be very cool
Nothing like it It's "REAL" hunting and is sooooo much more rewarding !! Nice going Michael 👍
Love you, man. Special love for T-Bone… I’m impressed
My first doe was with a recurve. She was 12 yards. Awesome shot.
That is awesome waddy !!! Old school , love it when you broke the limb and then the phone went off !!
Always loved watching the realtree crew especially the 3d shoots with tbone on monster bucks.
whoa thats michael waddell. I havent watched deer hunting videos in 25 years but i decided to watch some and hes still doing it
Nothings like watching a good ole recurve hunt 👍
Great Stuff Michael
Really cool to see a real man’s bow used!
When the deer were filtering in I kept saying to myself " please don't shoot one with a small head." Then when u drew & released I noticed that not a single deer reacted to anything but the Impact. The Impact is the key!
Sure am glad u flipped her cuz I knew where the shot was b4 u did that. Just a smidge from the Aortic Blast which would have tipped her over in her tracks w/o a spine shot. It was impressive to show people what u can do with the proper setup from a 🌳. U just don't get that proper angle from a ground blind. As old as she was u could have shot her behind the shoulder & had a long bloodtrail. When it got frigid 🥶 here in MN I made a vow to start practicing in February after I reset in January. I will be practicing with my custom Bighorn recurve with my Valkyrie tipped arrows. Probably won't shoot it until April from the shooting tree on my 3D range. But getting the muscle memory built up for a couple of months b4 then will be important since it's a minimum of 10 pounds more than your Hoyt. But it's sure worth it in the long run. Merry X-mas Michael to u & your family 🙏.
Glad there’s folks like you that can video your stuff, it’s -35° up here in IN with the windchill, may make a run for it tomorrow for the final hoorah til then watchin waddy bust stuff til Turkey season sounds alright too
"Lord, I pray that ol Mikey W. is forever bit by the stick bow bug and turns to the Trad side of the force. Amen" Awesome stuff Michael!
Awesome,would love to see more recurve hunts,I've enjoyed it more than compound hunting lots of fun and good experiences, had buddy's including myself shooting under, over behind just fun learning something new. Hope to see more keep dialing it in, pick a spot and let em drop. Thanks for all you do for the hunting sport,God bless
Awesome shot Michael!
Awesome job M Dub. Butterball backstraps baby.
Slick head down 👍
Congratulations Michael! I miss using “2 sticks & a string!” But sadly my 2 bad shoulders won’t allow for it anymore. Nice video as always! 🦌
@Bone Collector
what is that box on the ground? does it spread food every once in a while so they dont eat up everything the first night?
did anyone else freeze when those 2 deers were staring at Michael? I had a cup of coffee in my hand and did not realize that I just froze thinking that I will spook the deer 😂🤣
When bow hunting becomes easy pick up a different way. Exactly. Way to go!.
heck yeah stickbow welcome back to the community.
Not great penetration but great shot! I’ve only shot one with traditional bow. The heavy, high FOC carbon arrow from my old 57 lb longbow went through the doe at 20 yds like butter. Sold it because I knew my shoulder would thank me. I’m not down with corn piles but if you’re gonna hunt over one that’s how to make it sporting. 👍
Awesome!
Michael I have been watching you since the Realtree Monster Buck days...my hunting partner and I always enjoyed your videos the best! Nice Job!!!
Awsome content as always & 💘 Road Trip sticker on your limb.
Awesome video! There's nothing quite like hunting with a recurve.
Great job young man
Call me old fashion but I still love to take out my old Bear Super Kodiak from time to time.
Hunting with longbows and recurves make every ever deer a trophy
Lol I’ve been trying all year to get one with a recurve, and he goes out and nails one first night he takes it out. Crazy!
Really liked the video. Please do more like them self film with a recurve was awesome. You should get nick and t bone and have a doe contest like the squirrel classic. Lol thanks again
That's a very nice doe! Congrats! Enjoyed the video. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!
Can’t wait to take my recurve out this year!
Ive been following you since you were with Bill Jordan. Always been my favorite hunter.. keep em coming Michael…
Nice !! Keep em coming !!
Awsome. Wow I'm glad I found your channel I use to watch you on buckmaster. I remember when we were all young dudes 👍🏻🤣🤣
CONGRATULATIONS, she will be good eating!👍,I just my doe cut up last night, I hunt during shotgun season in IOWA
Love that. Spirit of Ishi! No high tech crap....except for the electric bike lol!😂
Git em waddy!
Glad you filmed it! When I saw your post on instagram I was hoping there was video. Congrats again with the trad
Good stuff!
This is at the top of my bucket list!
Every kill is a bitter/sweet event. Great hunt!
Got my first recurve can't wait to get in the tree with it.
This is one of my fav videos
Good shot my guy!!!
Going out with the long bow this weekend!
Very cool I might go this route in a few years
Much respect. Love you and PAW PAW great content. WOW she didn't carry that very far. Good shot Michael. 🦌🦌🦌👎 Back straps later for the family and friends.❤️🙏🙏👍
This is awesome! Thanks!
Congratulations Waddy! nice doe and a great shot! you had a lot of eyes to contend with! what, 5 or 6 does I think I counted! pretty cool! my buck tags are filled as well here in Illinoistan, I believe I'll take my old Bear Kodak Magnum out next couple times before season closes and try to fill my doe tags! Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year to you and your family and crew!
Way to go Walley, you the man...
Been watching you guys a while. It wasn’t until the tallest tree stand video I realized we only live a county over!
New sub , always watched your shows , just found UA-cam channel , Love it that u picked up the recurve went to work , that’s awesome
Awesome!!! Nothing like it. Good for you! I haven't been able to use my bow this year because of health problems. But watching your video sure made me miss my time in the woods this year. Maybe next year. Happy New Year and best wishes to you and your!
World class hunter. Needs a feeder and his cell phone goes off. Well at least you made a video!
Absolutely love it!
Haha yes sir!
Hay that's the way I hunt . I got tired getting my compound bows worked on less moving Parts with a recurve
Really cool
I love it! You always impress me with your videos. Thanks for sharing, I have learned a ton.
Very cool! I’m going to try my first traditional hunt this year. To be even more different…I’m using a Mongolian bow, and shooting off of the wrong side of the bow with a thumb release 😮. Don’t worry, I’ve been practicing for a year. Genghis Kahn was deadly!
Congratulations
HA! When you got busted, and had to be still, the eyes cutting back n forth, is the same look my dogs give me if they crap in the house. Good shot, congratulations.
Awesome video!!!!
Damn waddy!!! No safety harness lol good job my man!
Just got my first recurve this year hoping to be good enough to hunt with it next year.
Michael, we are huge fans of the single string videos especially!! " I don't know how to close out the complement...."keep up the good work?" Keep the Vid's coming?" Love your stuff?" Nahhhh you are now replacing the goats of the past. Scoot over Waddell will take it from here...lol
Come on out to southeast Michigan, I don't have a crew but I know a good chunk of public to get it done on. Super pressured though and hard to find the mature ones. I have seen them though biggest I laid eyes on was probably a out 140" maybe 130" but that's a good buck for where I hunt. Basically gotta get er done around the first week of October or the last week or so.
Let me know Waddie if you start taking applications. I am an old slick head slammer from away back. 🏹
Nothing like hunting with trad bows. Always wanted a Hoyt Satori, great bow just can’t afford one. Nice video congratulations.
Be careful! Trad is addictive! Congratulations.
Great video! I thought I was the only one who uses finger savers! 🎯
I took three deer many years ago with bear recurves..and finally this year I am giving it another go. Nothing like the feeling of accomplishment of a well placed arrow from your trad bows!
Very very good hunting video... I love it..
Good job 👍🤝🙏
I get my ole #Lefthand Fred Bear Kodiak Magnum recurve out every year, such a fun time in the woods.
Just found your channel and subscribed. Great work and entertaining!
Makes me proud to wear Realtree!
Holy shit. Michael Waddell is old. Haven't seen him since watching Realtree monster bucks in 2010..
As my pappy always said.. "It ain't sad to go trad " but it's bad when u been had" 😅
