Man, thats some good videos of what you guys go thru in the north country. I just cant do that white death thing but I`ve always wanted to see a blood trail in the snow though. P.S. Hope you did`nt pay a lot for that hat. Course I guess it could be a lucky hat.

Great video. Thanks for sharing, we haven't had a hunting snow around here in years. If we ever have another one I'll be sure not to hunt anywhere near water.   :bigsmyl:

If you watch the part where I'm wading up to the deer, you can see the entrance hole. Snuffers make big holes!

 Thanks for all your comments.   :D    I can't even begin to tell you how cold that water was. It took everything I had to keep my composure while filming.   :scared:
 I have a hard time giving up on deer if the tracking goes sour. I try to give it my all and if I see my prize and have to go through that, it's a small price for all the meals she'll give to us.  :thumbsup:

Arwin... thats what hunting is all about!

Loving what you do, doing what you love.

This July, when its really hot, maybe you can think back to when that water hit your skin and it will cool you just a bit.

Hard earned Ven is always the best.

Bowhunting forever!!!!!!!!!

I used a cheap Poloroid digital camera that can video short movies. It's not very good in the cold and I wished I had a camera mount for the tree. I could have got better footage.  :D
