Day 5 & 6: My First RECURVE Hunt & Dreaded EHD

Day 5 & 6: My First RECURVE Hunt & Dreaded EHD
With a perfect cold front incoming, I decide it's time to make my first recurve hunt. A few days prior I set this stand up on one of the best pinches on my property. The following day I hike way back in to a brand new spot on a river. While the hunt itself was less than ideal, I got a spot setup for a cold November morning. However, I also discovered yet another likely EHD casualty on what has been the worst year for it that I can remember. Thanks for watching!

Sweet, hopin to shoot some doe with recurve this year, been working on it couple years, its time now, good out to bout 18, wouldnt hunt til could hit a target 4 inch diameter pretty much every shot, 10 million shots later, im ready. Season just opened down here..i fell in love with the arrow setup...shoot compound now with a real forward heavy, 550 gr shaft with wendsel woodsmans out front, my ancient old self is down to 50 lb compound draw, worked up from 30 to 40 on recurve, but 50 lb compound just blows thru old deer again like i was a sprout, pullin 70 with my old bear razor 2 blades, recurve really helped my compound draw cycle as well, learned to get into my back in first few inches of draw instead of shoulder drawing then transfering it to my back, cant fake that recurve draw cycle, rotation my man, nice rotation ! strengthened my core to, think its helping my sciatica! Good luck

Man EHD is rough. We've been hammered in the past here in western Illinois

No apologies required, the hunt was great and educational! It’s amazing how these majestic resilient kings of the woods can succumb to a tiny midget! Despite the loss, you’ll prevail, and I cannot wait for the journey or two of your harvests! Thanks!

What tree arm are you using? I’ve been using a fourth arrow for a couple years now but am looking for a lighter more packable setup if one exists…

[@cheetoz6902]

Did you know at about 3:38 a deer went running to your left?

[@ryannoel8978]

Back to water always feels good

[@brentbarnetthunting]

Good grief what is that buck at 12:39, Jared? Any history with that one? Looks like a mega giant... Sorry about the EHD.

[@guardianminifarm8005]

Good stuff. Appreciate you bringing us along. When I lived & hunted in Indiana over 2 decades ago we had a few years of bluetongue that was pretty harsh. It is very sad to see all the dead deer. Happy hunting. Lord bless.

[@brandonbower2252]

How much does one of them hoyt bows run?

[@kendalldeal7697]

Love your videos, keep em coming!

[@jaredmills]

Thanks Kendall!

[@mitchellgenz1373]

Great video Jared, love the content.

[@miller.scotty7176]

What brand camo is that you are wearing? Love the videos you create!!

[@chadconwell1964]

It seems like these bucks have everything stacked against them to survive. I hate to see any of these deer die that way. I hope it doesn’t take years for some of those areas to recover

[@bradgordon5912]

don't be sorry about nothing harvested Jared. that's why we call it hunting. enjoyed the video as usual.

[@reelgamecalls1744]

Sucks seeing the dead buck! Keep grinding. Enjoying the hunts from home

[@jaredmills]

Thanks Drew!

[@drewzick241]

Jared, do you typically get DNR tags so you can at least keep the racks?

[@JayN4GO]

One of those ehd bucks was really nice. I hate Mother Nature at times.

[@waynejester3477]

Jared, did you salvage tag that deer. Was it a deer known to you before dying?

[@kylebailey8498]

Man that will make you sick

[@trevorlamble3645]

Ur video quality is never disappointing Jared. Can't wait to see u whack a booner

[@jaredmills]

Appreciate that Trevor. I'm hoping for that too!
