Like number 311. New subscriber from Arkansas. I love the U.P. And deer hunting. I was born and raised in Michigan. We still have our cabin in luddington. Been in our family since 1965. Always get my deer and Turkey every year their👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

That’s awesome. Luddington is a nice area. Thanks for subscribing I’m still new to this don’t have all the fancy gear but doing best I can with what I have main thing is I’m doing for the fun of it

[@jeffs.2431]

Nothing like a Michigan UP deer camp. Did it for about 15 years and loved every year.

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

thanks!! yes it is a great time. look forward to it every year. just got back from my 37th deer hunt from that camp never gets old.

[@rontamminga8596]

Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to the future videos of the season. Happy hunting.

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Thanks!! Hopefully the deer will corporate this time. Appreciate you watching and commenting!!

[@JnJTrueOutdoorAdventures]

Great video Dan! Good to see you at camp! Some nice looking deer you have on the trail cameras. That one doe made you when she walked in!! LOL I sure could of used that heater this past Monday, it was cold down here, it was 17 degrees when Big Al and I went out. Of course, if I had that kind of heater I would also need my blind. Only problem with that is it is packed in the camper. We are hopefully heading to camp on Friday. Take care and will be looking for more videos. Juddie - J & J TOA

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Thanks bud! I know you have some new ones out I will be catching up with them once I’m done. Yes those heaters are my best friend when it comes to hunting especially when I hunt all day I couldn’t do it with out it. Thanks again for watching and commenting appreciate that. Stay tuned for more to come. Headed to camp in a hr

[@Stambaughshuntingadventures]

Glad you are healed up and out hunting! We didn't have many shots at all by us either. Looks good up there! Can't wait to see the rest!

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Thanks bud! I know you have some new videos out I will catch up with them once I’m done hunting. But thanks for watching and commenting appreciate it!

[@tothemaxxoutdoors4771]

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Thanks bud yes anytime is great in the blind headed back up later today to get back at it

[@deerhearse]

Enjoyed the video. Chain saws sure saved the day heading in to your camp. Nice video! Checking out your others as well.

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

yes it did. i bring it with me every time i go to camp, cause you never know what you will find.

[@deerhearse]

Oh...and nice to cross the Mackinaw with you! Been too many moons ago for this Yooper, lol.

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

[@campbenny]

[@CrabbyBill]

Looked like great weather, good luck with the remainder of the season

[@curte7739]

No great weather is tracking snow don't like hunting up there when it's brown.

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Ya but it was cold and spotty snow but more snow would have been better

[@scottgarvy]

Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Thanks for watching appreciate it. More to come

[@harrytompson4454]

Great video hope you guys have a great hunting season

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

thanks a lot appreciate it very much!!

I really miss hunting in Michigan I grew up in traverse City hunted all around that area Grand traverse county kalkaska county leelanau county and a little bit south of that area in the '70s and early '80s. I moved to Georgia lot more deer in Georgia and some pretty good quality deer but they're just something about deer camp in Michigan that I've never seen matched anywhere else. I've been in deer clubs in Georgia and Tennessee but they're just not the same as a Michigan deer camp I don't know why, they just don't feel the same. I currently live in Central kentucky on a farm I bought here we've got a lot of deer and some really good quality bucks here in Kentucky I killed a huge 8 point last week. I pretty much hunt alone all my family is either past or the few that are left are still up in Michigan older and no longer hunt. As far as the number of shots you're hearing on I'm guessing same thing that happened in this area when covid hit I think it bought a lot more people into the woods we got a lot more deer hunters our rifle season is only 2 weeks long as well runs from November 12th to the 27th and I hear shots almost daily around my farm most off the distance. My farm's 300 acres and I hunt it all alone pretty much except when my wife decides to hunt with me. I'll hear shots around the farm and I seldom heard shots before covid at least very few. I think a lot of people are still hurting probably out of work whatever and they're putting meat in the freezer. Good luck the rest of the season. I'm all about getting another doe or two to put in the freezer.

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Wow that’s some serious acres you got there especially in Kentucky. I’ve herd some good things about that state as far as hunting goes. I’d share a camp with ya down there in a heart beat. Lol…. Yes there’s something special about deer camps here in Michigan but we’re loosing them real fast and I blame the Dnr for that but that’s a whole another story. Want to thank you for taking the time to watch and comment appreciate it

[@finallyfriday.]

All my family has passed away. I have no kids. I really miss when the relatives got together to hunt in the UP. Now I hunt my farm alone. Hunting is a group thing, men, family, kids, talking, eating, playing cards, telling old stories....

[@Haynesvilleguide]

Water came up on us during deer season too. Made it tricky getting across the little brooks. Are the wolves a problem there?

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Yes the wolfs are a HUGE problem. The anti’s keep winning so there’s nothing we can do about them.

[@Southpaw210]

Great video Dan!!! I love the prepping and getting ready for the opening day. Your cameras had some action. When I hunt out of a blind I use the same heater. Dad has been hunting out of his blind this week with one, it has been a cold few mornings here in WV for the opening of gun season. Looking forward for the rest of your trip! Stay safe.

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

thanks for watching and commenting. yes those things are a life saver as far as sitting for any periods of time. just got back from up there. great time was had as always

[@Ripfishallday]

You to invest in a cheap topper for hunting season, keeps things dry abd you can camp in the back

[@Lifeinthe906]

Hope your season is going well.

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

First few days was slow headed back up later today hope urs is going better than mine is.

[@1989Falkor]

They make an adaptor that will fill those one pound tanks using a 20 pound tank. Save a ton of money. Thanks for sharing your adventures.

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Yes my buddy does it. Thanks for watching and commenting appreciate it!!

[@jimmyjack6393]

Sorry I'm late watching the video, been busy hunting. It was a great video. Why did you take your new video down?

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

thanks, i'm doing the same thing in catching up on video's myself. i found a couple mistakes in the editing part, it's in the process of uploading right now.

[@User-nx7rs]

You stated that it is hard to get a deer out of the spot by the creek, try a child's sled that's 6 feet long and use bungee cords to keep it in the sled. You crossed big Mac so what county do you live in?

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Thanks ya we have invested in a jet sled. I live down state in st Clair county my camp is in school craft county. Thanks for watching appreciate it

[@User-nx7rs]

@@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88 I hunt in algonac or private in lapeer.

[@jeffs.2431]

Is it legal now to bait in the UP?

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

always has been, there is one county on the south west area you can't cause they found that cwd there, like 3 miles from wisconsin

[@billwallenstein3387]

Wish I was there 🦌

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Thanks I wish I was there right now had to come back and work 2 days headed back up in a couple hrs. Thanks for watching and commenting appreciate it

[@mngregoutdoors9564]

I’m pretty sure those were swans flying over and not Sandhills.

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Reason I said sand hill cranes cause they weren’t white at all they were brown in color so I may have been wrong. Don’t know for sure. Thanks for watching and commenting appreciate it

[@ianmccutcheon6319]

Nice deercamp video. Enjoyed it a lot. In our area the wolves and yotes push the deer out when they come around. I never like seeing wolf sign during hunting season or anytime as a matter of fact. Anyways wishing you a great season. TC

[@mikeveine]

Sounded like a trumpeter swan

[@anthonymartin4459]

Good video looks like your camp is right by my uncles is that the cc bridge by the high water truck trail

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Yes it is. Ware abouts his camp?

[@anthonymartin4459]

Turn just after the cc bridge back in about 2 miles by I think it’s duck lake it’s been a few years since I’ve been up there

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Ok lot different now they did lots of logging since they but that new bridge inn

[@anthonymartin4459]

Ok ya I’m hoping to get up there next year it’s just past camp big nose if you seen the sign for that I know a few years ago the clear cut out almost to his gate

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Ya I know ware that place is. Is you uncles place on the high water or the letson truck trail

[@KyleB1987]

You could probably hunt the house during the middle of the day

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

[@sonjaorleans8850]
