Nice deer, I got a nice buck on my Indiana property during gun season, used a 72 caliber air rifle. Do you have to buy a license to use a crossbow in Indiana? I would rather use a crossbow than a compound as it's more of an efficient weapon. Those are nice mounts on your wall though I go with the European mounts myself, I like the skull look.
@masonx54 3 күн бұрын
What kind of license? As long as you have some kind of deer license for archery, you can use a crossbow. Unless you are using a landowner exemption, then you don't have to get a license for deer hunting. We have several European mounts as well. Thank you for watching and commenting!

I do have to admit, it’s very distressing to see dead deer and hear about hunting for animal rights activists. Can you please put timed sections or something so we can skip that section? I tried fast forwarding, but didn't go far enough and saw a clip of two dead deer lying on the ground...sniff, sniff. I’m surprised KZbin even allows that, to be honest. You’ve shown dead animals quite a few times now and you just need to realize some may not like it.
@masonx54 3 күн бұрын
Regarding animal rights, hunting deer to eat is much more ethical and nutritious than the IFAP (Industrial Food Animal Production) facilities that are designed to maximize the amount of meat, milk, or eggs from a particular breed of animal in the shortest amount of time and at the lowest cost. There is nothing ethical about the mass animal meat production in IPAF. Hunting animals helps the species survive. I will not put warnings on my videos for such things. If you don't like my videos, don't watch them.

@@masonx54 that was just mean. Nothing I said was mean. I’m quite aware of IFAP and how unethical they can be. You seem to be not understanding. An arrow and bloody, dead animal can be distressing to see.

Do you ever use VR?

I do not currently use VR, but I have used VR in the past. Someone who was designing adaptable software that didn't require the use of the controllers reached out to me and asked if I would be interested in testing out the software. It was definitely something different. I do think augmented reality (AR) will be extremely useful, and I can see myself liking it more than virtual reality (VR).

Mason g’day, congratulations on a successful channel! My question is: What do you foresee as your biggest challenge growing older?

Xx take it easy, love Trace from Down Under

I sustained my first spinal cord injury in 1983 when nothing was accessible . ‘Accessibility' wasn’t even a term. You just made due with what you had if you wanted to get something done. The younger generation who whine and complain about not having an accessible bathroom are almost comical. However, I have gotten some really good tips from Mason...particularly push handles in tight spaces.

I really appreciate that you are helping people by letting them know how you do it and what Catheter you are using. People know that I have Medical Equipment doing my Body Functions but they do not know what it is like and what kind of Care I need done all the time to keep it Working for me. I think that you need to be living with it everyday to really know what it is like and I could not explain it to people who do not have Medical Equipment like this. I understand your Videos because I have a Catheter too so I know what it is like but for me it is different because I have a Foley Catheter for Life and what they did to my Bladder. But my Urologist let me know that I needed The Surgery or my Original Bladder would have backed up into my Kidneys and I would have had Kidney Failure by now. now. But my Kidneys are still Working for me now and that is a good thing.
