Got my first doe of the year in a urban hunt in a nearby town. I have to kill 2 doe before I can kill a buck and until today have only had bucks in range. Felt good to watch an arrow fly today!

Congratulations !That is a wicked looking picture, it looks like saddle gear is spewing from the inside of the deer.

What? You've been around here for like a year. How do you not have 75 posts? I figured you had made fun of @flinginairos at least 75 times by now.

Congrats on the deer.

I guess I haven't done nearly enough. Over the next year I'm gonna have to step my game up.

Hey one more thing Appalachia. How do you like the setup for filming as opposed to filming from a tree stand and what gear you using?

I love it for filming. I don't remember what it was like to film out of a tree stand but I certainly don't think there are big disadvantages to filming from a saddle. The only thing that I think can be more challenging is getting set up. But that just takes practice. I shot this deer at about the 2:00 position shooting over my bridge and camera arm. I practiced this shot several times this summer.

For camera gear I run a cannon G40 with an azden shotgun mic, Gopro for a 2nd angle (if I remember to turn it on), and a tactacam on my bow(if I remember to turn it on). I use either a 4th Arrow carbon arm or a Muddy Outfitter arm. I go back and forth with these because I like them both and cant decide what I like better.
My pack weight with camera gear is about 25lbs total. There are some places I could cut some but I'm pretty comfortable with my set up right now. Ill have to get some video of it all sometime. Ive had a few folks ask me about it on YT.
