- After the rains of Hurricane Ian, a lot of plans got cancelled as Wildlife Management Areas remained closed for extended periods of time. When one Zone C WMA opened, Mark made plans to salvage his weekend but everybody else already made other plans. On this solo mission, it all came together as Mark found himself smack in the middle of a hot doe's nest and bucks all around. Enjoy this episode!

Swamp N Stomp is a channel or vlog, whatever you want to call it, dedicated to helping the hunting community grow, specifically in Florida. Studies show that the majority of modern hunters had family members who raised them as hunters, and a large portion of non-hunters want to hunt but don't know where to start. By documenting our hunting adventures, making instructional or tutorial videos, and really anything-hunting-related videos, we hope to help bridge that gap by providing practical information for beginner and experienced hunters on how to become a better and more ethical hunter.

Nobody appreciates the difficulty of your hunts. Big props to you guys. Love your content.
Appreciate the kind words. Thanks for your support! -Mark
You were right Mark, that is a giant in Florida. What a beautiful buck. Congratulations.
Great content Mark. Really nice buck, can't believe he decided to walk right out in the open. Great call on hang location, even without back cover and the sun at his back, that tree saved your butt.
Great job brother!!!!
Yea it was kinda wild. Sometimes location is more important than cover! -Mark
@@SwampNStomp Yep, you gotta be where you gotta be. To definitely thought me something, that's for sure.
Nice man. I never get in that close unless i have a firearm hanging from my tree.
It never fails. With the bow, they come out far, and when i am hunting with a rifle, they come out close.
Congrats. The stories I could tell about people walking up on my hunts as well. We all got them. Nice job
Congratulations on a great public land buck !!!
what an awesome hunt bro.. I got a buck like that too. same shot, it ran for like 30 rds then WALKED like 80 yds after that.. liver shot on mine.. Heck of a Buck bro congrats 🤙🏼🔥🦌 pretty dope to see how it all played out from your tree..
public land is def a struggle... no courtesy from fellow hunters sometimes
Great job, nice buck!!
I had 3 on camera at 1 time nene saw them again it's crazy how they are there's nomad deer resident deer they Bachlor up .... fight n find their own areas.... I've learned allot through the years
I’m from up north a transplant. (My wife is a recruiter)
Good deer man, but I can not get motivated to hunt cause the deer are so small here.
That’s unfortunate. We don’t hunt just for the deer it’s really the whole experience, the challenge and everything in between. Thanks for watching. Be sure to subscribe! -Danny
Congratulations Mark that's an awesome buck
So happy for you bro!
Congratulations on a great buck and hunt!
168lbs holy crap dude
I know man, crazy. You know how long I’ve been wanting this, you were these my first season with a bow!
Nice Mark, Keep up the good content. Always look forward to your videos..
I appreciate your content and narratives on your hunts!! Looking to soon hunt in Florida as well!
I've never seen that tail wag before. Definitely, something I will look for in the future.
Awesome video!
Thank you! We do our best! -Mark
Great video
This is proof to change broadheads, fast .
Congrats Mark! Great buck
Congratulations. Nice buck. Never seen one just walk off like that, that was crazy. I was thinking u missed him lol. Seen them jump and walk off hunched up from a gut shot. I’ll be talking about that shot. Congratulations again.
I was using single bevel broadheads. It’s supposedly a thing that happens a lot. Since it cuts in contact and is razor sharp if you slip it between the ribs they don’t even know what happened. He felt a pinch and thought nothing happened. Crazy!
Nice buck friend I don’t know how you get so damn lucky lol
Lucky? I think 🤔 not.
Beautiful buck Mark. Congratulations again. Chest cavity filled up with blood forced him to expire. Lots to learn for the younger hunters in approaching an animal time wise. They’ll die if you leave them be and bleed out.
What single bevel was that and it’s weight ? Had to be that Kudu type head you were using ?
That was the Strickland helix 100 gn. He died wuick though. He stood up after a few minutes and when I saw the death wag I knew he was done. That was him taking his last few breathes. But no reason to rush over there when you can see where he fell. Give him all the time just in case
@@SwampNStomp You played it perfect. You were shaking like a leaf and barely able to speak you were so pumped. So it resist rushing over, like i'd do, lol, you waiting, and allowed him to pass. I know you hated waiting, but that's the key. You knew you smoked him,so with that in you mind, it's easy to get down and blood trail. He was staggering a good 40 yards it looked like. He was in no shape to haul ass. That little B3 head did great.
Congrats guys. I got me a doe the other day and had a bear try to climb my tree and miss a chance at a giant.
Can't believe people is living the 70s all over again, using those heads. That why we switched to 3 blades back then. Histor repeated again.
It’s hard to argue with the fact that deer get deader when the arrow goes in further…. I’ve shot 2 animals this season, one with an expandable and one with a single bevel. The single bevel didn’t go 30 yds. The other one didn’t get enough penetration and he’s still dancing around the woods now. I’m a believer in both types of broadhead for different situations but I’m starting to lean more and more to high penetration setups.
Congrats on the buck, what management area was that, if you don't mind me asking. I've hunted Central FL. Most of my life. I'm typically hunting private land but also apply for quota permits.
We don’t spot name, sorry.
Congrats ! Maybe this will help, I use a Hawk crawler for my ebike. I use a steel ring that I placed on the handle of the cart, s carabiner to attach to the bike . I mounted a flat plate to the top of the bike rack that has a half circle that I had welded to the top of the rear of the plate , it pulls very well loaded. Will share pics if we can figure a way to contact.
Appreciate the input but no that doesn’t help. I don’t want a game cart. Just more bs to deal with. We always load em on the back of the bike and ride out. It’s easy when you have a helping hand, not when you are alone. In this case I didn’t want to gut it but if someone didn’t offer to help I would have gutted it and found a way to put it on the bike. This pst weekend I shot another and I loaded it on the bike by myself and road out with all of my gear. Most Florida deer just don’t weigh 170lbs like this one did lol. Thanks for watching! -Mark
Show us how you tie the deer to the bike please. Btw I'm hunting from the jx3, John is quite the character. 😆
Very nice deer congratulations. What town is Steele's quality game processing located near
He’s in Sanford!
What broadheads are u shooting?
I saw the short and commented and found the original video... did u get a complete pass through ?
They are Strickland helix 100 grain. Yes it was a complete pass through and it was hurried into the ground about 6”. Thanks for watching, don’t forget to subscribe! -Mark
Congrats, nice buck there. Surprised he took so long to expire with the double lung, so much for the 7 second rule. Say were you hunting out of the JX3? Also the hawk crawler cart works well with my ebike. I also have the same style cart as you used in this video, it does not work well. Around 10 mph or more it shifts side to side and tries to tip the bike over.
I was hunting out of my wood hunting saddle deluxe. You can get one 10% off with our coupon code SNS10
@@SwampNStomp Thank you. Can I ask why your not using your JX3?
Have you recently hunted three lakes if so is it real wet out there haven’t Ben out there yet
No sir we have not. -Mark
What cammo are you useing
It’s our own camo line called high pine. You can get it on our website www.swampnstompllc.com
But with season around the corner supplies are low. We are at the end of a massive sale. You can get 70% off with the code “SPRING”. If your sizes are not in stock make sure you follow us on Instagram and we will announce when we are fully restocked! -Mark
How do u keep people from stealing your camera....i lost a couple... really sucks heard of people putting them out with a climber
I just bring a single climbing stick and go about 8-10ft off the ground. High enough that it’s out of people eyesight when they scan the horizon. They can’t steal what they never saw!
What WMA is it in please
We don’t answer such questions. It’s in Florida though! Thanks for watching! -Mark
Do you run a thermacell? It pains me to look at all the mosquitoes buzzing around your head and your videos.
Nah. I have. I don’t find it makes enough of a difference. I’d rather just put some OFF on my clothes. Most of the time I just let it ride. They are only bad for about 30 mins till the sun comes out. -Mark
That’s fl public land for you. I get absolutely disgusted hunting here. People did that to me almost every day last season. Just walk on top of me and go up a tree under 100yds away. Bow gun season dint make a difference.
Gotta love it or your gonna hate it. It’s part of the game, it worked out in the end! -Mark
You make it a habit of setting up within 100 yards of other hunters or did you just start that recently?
Uhhh what? That dude set up by me… We don’t do that kinda thing
I don't know of any hunter that takes a 100yd shot. Seems okay to me even though you didn't pay attention to the video.
@@eddiefirst9410 I’m talking about a situation that happened with the swamp n stomp crew and a buddy of mine at a wma. Also, where are you that hunters aren’t taking 100 yard shots? Maybe the place you/they hunt won’t allow a 100 yard shot but that doesn’t mean people don’t make them. Our land in GA has plenty of 100+ yards clear cuts
@@eddiefirst9410 also, I assume you mean a 100 yard shot in general, no one should be shooting at a deer at 100 yards with an arrow. Just to be clear.
@@charlieemike correct. With an arrow. In Florida. If a hunter sets up bowhunting 100 yds from you I can understand why you feel that way. But in reality he or you aren't going to shoot deer in front of one another. Lots of variables to that. It happens and most of the time unintentionally. Still against 100yd shots on whitetail. Levi probably won't take that shot.
