Title: Finally #2
Post by: catman529 on May 04, 2017, 10:00:36 PM
Not an upgrade but very glad to get a good shot at one. Had just got home from a 4 day trip to the lake where I had missed a big tom at 10 yards. Saw this guy in one of the hay fields from the driveway and went after him. Will let the video tell the rest.

It has been the toughest season I've hunted yet.

I'll tell you what Catman, I've hauled a pretty good size camera and tripod through more turkey woods than I can count, but your dedication to getting footage is off the charts.  Most viewers want to see kill shots and gobbling/strutting turkeys, to keep them on be edge of their seats.  But your commentary as you were walking, with just greenery, and not a sign of a turkey, had me dialed in the whole time.  Every cameraman just wants the viewer to "feel like they were there", and I certainly did.  Great job!  On the turkey and the "B" footage.  Congrats on #2 and good luck on the 2 others.

thank you! My main goal is always to bring the hunt to the viewer and that means the hunt not just the highlights. I'll do a video at the end of most seasons with highlights from the entire season, but each individual hunt I want to try to show how it all went down.
