    I tracked for the first time this year (originally from Florida) First day bumped a dandy at 15 years I grunt called in. He took off and I tracked him for a couple hours but lost him. Great day in the woods - best way to hunt. Thanks for sharing!

    Everyone complaining about him not wearing Hunter orange needs to look at NH law's. It's not required. When you hunt areas where there isn't a road for 10+ miles you really don't need to be overly concerned with other hunters. Like he says it's smart to toss orange on when dragging though.

    • @miztrusa
      @miztrusa 6 років тому

      Just because the law states you don't hafta doesn't mean you can't so it would be a very small price to pay on a color blind animal.... Jus sayin. 😁

    • @markmasterson2459
      @markmasterson2459 6 років тому +8

      Why are people hammering on him for this. It's his choice. Obviously the way he hunts works and I would be willing to bet he has better success tracking then the ones complaining. Tracking is not as easy as UA-cam makes it look. Not to mention getting it on film.

      Jeff Doyle yes there are, we are seeing some bruiser bucks every year though check out my Instagram you can see some of the bucks taken last week in the Catskills we are doing well. Great woods to hunt steeper then my camp in the ADK but more open and more deer. We just don’t see the snow much anymore, I did get on some deer today though tracking so not bad above 2k ft. Your welcome to come down next season and collaborate if you’d like. I usually hunt with my family only or alone but have to admit I’m a huge fan of you and Hal the big woods team are all great guys so if your interested DM me on Instagram or FB we can talk

    Great job Jeff and thanks for putting out these videos! Love the over the shoulder camera view as its about as close as you can get to being there with you. Learning a ton about tracking deer too, something I’ve only done a few times but never successful which alway led me to believe its near impossible to sneak up on them... Clearly not! If we get snow this year during NY, I’ll be putting this into practice after the opening day crowd has gone home. Keep em coming

  • @uvcoach42
    @uvcoach42 6 років тому +1

    Awesome footage Jeff, man that third grunt was so audible! I can't imagine how gassed you big woods hunters are dragging those bucks back to the truck. I've used a heavy contractors bag with and cut a big enough hole in the bottom to get the head and antlers through it, then cinched it off which creates less friction on the snow makes the drag a lot easier.. Someone also makes a Deer Sleigh'r that is basically a rolled up piece of plastic that you strap the carcass in to.. We aren't in the big woods either ADK.'s or Catskills so we don't have the long drags here in Dairy farm country if CNY. You definitely have to be in shape to enjoy your type of hunting especially going back in the big woods Thanks for sharing!!

      Chad Agamaite thanks for the comment. That’s a Sitka merino beanie over the ball cap. If it’s really cold I’ll wear the Sitka stratus glove but usually I carry two pair of under armor lightweight gloves and double up if I need to. Beanie over the ball cap allows me to control coverage over the ears, most the time I keep em out.

    Nice buck Jeff, if you take each front leg and put it up over its neck it makes it a lot easier to drag !

    Great Video ! I loved it! I also self film my hunts with a go pro but I really liked your camera angle. My question is how often do you need to change batteries with the 7? I only get about 20 minutes out of a battery with the GoPro hero 4. I bring about 6 batteries with me every day but still can’t leave the camera on for the whole hunt. So coming from a guy that tried to film my own hunts you did a great job! Be proud of it!

      TenXTimmy thx. I just turn it on when I have a good feeling but don’t run it all the time.

    awesome hunt. this was like watching myself, exact same way I hunt. get on a track and dog it until you catch up with him. hunting season doesn't get fun for me until there's snow on the ground.

    Hey great videos! Makes me want to ditch my Treestand for a good pair of boots. Speaking of which, I would be interested to no more about your gear choices. Specifically the scope ... vx-3i? What do you hint is ideal magnification for is type of hunting. Also what boots? And in general the level of warmth you're wearing given the need to not sweat.
    Thanks!

      Ben Klein once you get the bug it’s sure hard to go back to sitting. I have taken bucks tracking with both the vx3 1-5 and 2.5-8. Current preference is 1-5. Good old lacrosse boots always. Currently on the aerohead sports.

    Do you know if he was the one with the big tracks you were following or perhaps one of the smaller buck tracks you encountered?

    • @jeff_doyle
      @jeff_doyle  6 років тому +1

      Rockwell19701 it could have been the buck I tracked since the morning but I’ll forever wonder just how big, and how close, the buck from the last track was when I pulled the trigger.

    Just found your videos and I'm hooked. I live in WNY not very many places to do that, but ADK isn't far away. One question though: Any thoughts on quartering and packing out vs dragging?

    • @jeff_doyle
      @jeff_doyle  5 років тому

      Whatever makes sense. We’ve hide bagged them, used a pack basket, a frame pack, game carts, and slung him onto my back.

    Congrats on the beautiful buck an a great self filmed hunt! You, sir have earned a Subscriber!
    I'm from Vermont and have thought about doing this as well.
