You make me sleepy. No that is not a insult but rather a good thing . I watch your content and go happy to bed . Thanks guys

It just happened to me woke up and you were the last channel watched.

[@ToiChutGongFu]

Why you wearing a hat indoor? Makes you look tougher huh?

[@RWS1255]

I've never really hunted before. Desert rabbits and targets with a 22. The tech used in your videos is mind blowing! The accuracy is very impressive. I hope this Channel continues.

[@lindaandrews9245]

I am a Brit and follow your channel with enjoyment. KZbin are getting ridiculous over the hunting channels. What majority of people DO NOT understand is that the county side need managing. Pigs in particular are destructive and multiply so fast it is near impossible to keep the numbers down. What is wrong with showing how this is dealt with? The general public need to understand that if they want food on their plates at a reasonable price then there have to be sacrifices.

[@EDGEoftheOUTBACK]

Great video guys. As someone who is slowly learning the ropes with thermal and hunting content (I'm an Aussie). Especially the restrictions and hurdles the platform throws up. I really appreciate your insight on this topic 👍

[@tuomasholo]

Anything gun related is an uphill battle on digital platforms. The fight is worth it.

[@ONEILLOPS]

Solid work Rich! Hoping to see more of this real soon buddy! You guys take care down there.

I started following this Amazing Channel since the Chinese Plandemic started on march 2020

[@adrienneclarke3953]

I just bought my first recluse bow this week. I wouldnt survive without channels like yours showing me different equipment, how to use it. How to hunt vermin, how different animals react so i know if i could do it myself or need to get someone in. I love yours and so many other hunting channels

[@raizaabarasa4886]

what can you recommend yt channels for beginners? if u dont mind, tnx :)

[@soulmate.stacking9588]

This is the most amazing channel I have ever seen on KZbin! I am hooked! I watch your videos for hours and hours and they never get old! You guys are amazing and thank you so much for doing what you do!

[@rylaczero3740]

Just don't go shooting kids.

[@OG_Premed]

I’ve been following you guys since y’all flipped that hog! Oh wait! That was the first and last video🤣🎯 BTW I FEEL PARRIS ISLAND VIBES COMING FROM THE HOST!

[@PittManGaming]

You guys put up a video that showed one of the guys running over a hog and killing it with the steal bumper that was mounted to the front of the truck. I’ve been hooked ever since!

[@FelipeIIEmperadorPoderoso]

Greetings from 🇵🇦. I LOVE the videos of this Channel

[@lobopropredatorcontrol]

I have the pulsar trail xp50 lrf on a Olympic arms 22-250 both of which I seen you use in the past, I’m getting some point of impact change in colder weather. Do you have any information about this?

[@ONEILLOPS]

Get a MK1

[@nunyabeeswax2575]

@@ONEILLOPS what's an MK1 exactly for those of us up here in the peanut gallery? 😉

[@joshuab.8904]

Great job Rich!

👊

[@VeritasOmniaVincit176]

Veritassium made a video about how to get the largest view count comparing thumbnails. His conclusion was that borderline clickbait gives the best results in the long run: don't trick your audience or they won't come back, but hyperbolic text and actual footage with flashy overlays work like a charm.

[@jesustorres-uc3hp]

can you guys make a channel in rumble , love your content and in rumble it could gain a audience or migrate there to avoid you tube B.S.

[@johnsalazar245]

Do you guys shoot hogs with a m60 machine gun? I would since it shoots a 308 caliber and shoots fast

[@ryryk6977]

If KZbin keeps going the way it is it’ll pound its self into the ground

[@Aggrobiscuit]

We keep using it despite all the things they've done, and they know it.

[@jonathanbarnes3061]

Not a comparable alternative as of yet.

[@johnsalazar245]

Talk about the weapons used on ultimate night vision on the podcast. Like M4 carbines, AR-10s and M60 machine guns.

[@stefanvoda2421]

Hi there I'm happy to see you, good luck and all the best to you and your family and friends...

[@lidorachmat5642]

Review the hunting clips on the podcast

Can’t wait to listen to more content like this

[@deviantnia]

The host looks like John Cena with that cap on

[@lobopropredatorcontrol]

This was some great information, I hit 1k subscribers Litle over a month ago and I’m just shy of 2k now. Sucks the way you can get demonetized! Thermal is legal this year on wolves and it’s my goal to get some videos of wolf kills this winter! Love the channel

[@leehunter5632]

Awesome video a lot of information

[@pebblez_]

cool podcast

[@maxfastest]

Not only KZbin but the entire country has gone batshit crazy with super ignorant bullcrap ! This nonsense will be the end of all of our enjoyable content and KZbin will be replaced with something much better !

[@johnny-brings-a-good-point]

🤔 makes sense and interesting

[@stoopingfalcon891]

I think that the lefties are reacting to the wrongthink side of the story. I have seen so many comments about the 'cruelty' of what you guys do, without a single mention of the amount of money lost to farmers and agriculture every year, from the damage these vermin do. I support your channel and the channels of anyone that does what you and your compatriots do.

[@airmanma]

Censorship is getting out of control. If someone doesn't like what they see on YT, find something else. Stop wrecking other people's interest in something YOU don't like.

[@EvansPerson]

What you got their BUD!!!!

[@abinn7717]

This channel promotes hunting of Wildlife.

[@hailamnguyen8805]

And?

[@Emadrat58]

Yeah no shit, they promote hunting feral hogs that are highly invasive and do millions of dollars worth of damage to farmland, the same land that your veggies come from.

[@daffaphonecell75]

Apakah saya bisa membeli alat semacam ini?

[@RatdogDRB]

Rich... yer "dog meat". You did NOT look at him and say: "Hey Bud? What'cha got there?" I wanted to see him hit the deck at that comment. AND... even worse yet... not ONE hog was harmed in the making of this video!!! WTH?!?!? LOL

Can hunting channels survive on YT? ANSWER: *NO* Karens will have you banned for"cruelty against animals" .. RIGHT as they're stuffing their mouth with heavily processed pork, beef, chicken, etc etc

[@MyDuckSaysFucc]

Because protecting livestock from being viciously mauled to death is “animal abuse” 🙄 these people take their food - including vegan food - for granted. If they don’t want board and coyotes to get put down, go ahead and grow your own food!

[@AvyScottandFlower]

@@MyDuckSaysFucc Producing vegan food actually kills MORE animals than meat farming, as farmers have to kill an even greater amount and diversity of invasive animals, in order to protect the plants, right up to the time of harvesting But of course, ALL that matters to Karens are their *FEE-FEES* Facts? Reason? Evidence? Numbers? Of course not.

Le problème, tu ne pratique pas la chasse ,tu fait un massacre sans respecter les animaux..... Peut-être que la véritable question et de se remettre en question

[@Emadrat58]

All of the hogs they kill die quickly, and if any hogs run off they probably don’t notice because they have 10 other hogs to worry about shooting. It might not be a traditional hunt but it’s more like pest control
