  • Popping Smoke: A Public Land Backpack Whitetail Hunt by Damon Bungard. Hunting is a lot more than putting meat in the freezer. There's challenge, and there's adventure, and there's respect for and a love for wild places, and gratitude for time well spent in them. It's not common for people to backpack hunt for whitetails, but it's something I look forward to every Fall. I'm backpacking in on the tail end of Hurricane Nicole, muzzeloader in hand, for a whitetail hunting adventure. And naps ;)

    Great video, such a pure and satisfying way to hunt. Most people have no idea the difficulty involved especially in the big woods of the Eastern US. Really enjoyed watching this. Well done!

    Great video. Love seeing someone document some backcountry hunting in the east. Don’t have to travel west to have fun.

    Can you give the details on your stove and tent? This kind of hunting looks like an awesome way to do some backcountry hunting in the East. Plenty of places from GA to Maine to give it a go along the Appalachians and find one of them old mountain bucks.

      The tent is a Seek Outside Cimmaron tent with their titanium stove

    Adventure without an airplane ride. I like it. Only thing missing is some snow.

    Awesome video! We used to kayak/canoe down the Flint River in Middle Ga for 2-3 days and camped out on the river as we found good spots. I would love to do a hunting trip like this. Where did you get your stove? That sure would come in handy!

    • @DamonBungard

      the stove and tent are made by Seek Outside

    If you you havent done a pack dump, gear video, that would be a good one. I want to try this style in GWNF Virginia.

    Great video. Very informative. You may have inspired me to try this style of hunting. How far is your camp from your hunting spot?

    • @DamonBungard
      @DamonBungard  11 місяців тому

      thanks, and I hope you do try it one day and have a nice hunt. I was probably hunting only 500 yards from my tent.

    Can yo please tell me the brand of prescription glasses you are wearing? I live in west Texas and am constantly getting eye poked by cedar branches.

    • @DamonBungard
      @DamonBungard  4 місяці тому

      Those glasses are actually prototypes from a brand called Revision and I helped them develop them. They don't exist for consumers. I would suggest looking at options from Oakley or Wiley X.

      @@DamonBungardThanks for the answer back. and of course they are unavailable. lol That's the luck I have. Wiley X was what I was going to until I saw yours. Now I have eyeglass envy. Thanks for the great videos. I really like you and Clay's bow hunting vids.

    That looks fun. It would’ve been cool to see the killshot.

      yeah, kind of a bummer, but it was raining so hard when it all went down not sure what would have been visible anyways. Still thought it was worth showing the rest.
