Got mine in the mail yesterday.  Watched the main DVD last night. Excellent.  Worth the wait.

Biggie I saw your name in the credits but I don't remember why you were there...   :biglaugh:

Ron-Biggie was a few hundred yards from me when I caught that pig - we are bestest friends- that's why he's on there and that's why I wasn't skeered- he was my backup!

A few hundred yards?.    :confused: ...that's not backup, that's long range observation    :bigsmyl:

Picked up a copy from the Tall Tines guys at the Traditional Expo at Waterloo last weekend.  Another great showing of all that we get to see and hear when hunting!  Fantastic scenery and animals!

I know how Gene manages to kill the big ones now. He sings to them to calm them into a trance before thumping them. Barry yodels at them and kills them with his bad breath.
Great movie! Another grand slam right out of the park. Whitey's (David Mitten)kids are pretty cute too. Outstanding movie!!

Finally got to watch it today.  What a beautiful piece of art.  My favorite part was when the little guy was going after that turkey.  The look of frustration on the poor little fellow was something we all know well!  Excellent work by the Wensel/Mitten camp once again.

It's just an outstanding piece of work.  Really a complete joy to watch.  Everything on both dvd's is a treasure.

I finally received mine. Absolutely awesome!!! Finished watching it tonite!!! Even caught my wife coming in (had to watch it on my computer) and watching quite a bit of it with me!!! She did laugh when Gene was singing!! I think she said "good thing there is an age limit for American Idol contestants!" Don't worry Gene! I took care of her for ya!!

Got my copy in the mail today and I just finished watching it.  WOW!  What a fantastic work of art!  If you liked Primal Dreams you will truly enjoy the contiuation of Essential Encounters.  I can't wait to watch again.  Going to be recommending this to each and every "hunter" I know.  Thanks Wensels and Mittens!

I was watching EE again getting fired up for the up coming season. I noticed the bino strap that Barry was wearing. Does anyone know who sells them?
