Deer Hunting Oak Islands - Opening Day Bucks

[@flywiseman]

Another great vid. That soft ground is not something i can comprehend being from central Tx. Really crazy to see make waves.

[@peterupdikeswildtreasures4055]

I'm enjoying your videos. Lots of good information. thanks. Looking forward to the next one. Good job.

[@akasutton]

I love how you share your strategic thought processes. Thanks for sharing the hunt!

[@sameold77]

I'm looking at the Insta360 One R for filming my hunts. What are your thoughts so far using it specifically for hunting? To film walking in and sitting in a tree or ground blind hunting? Low Light is an issue for all action cams but wondering just how bad the low light picture is compared to the GoPro 8, with 360 mod lense. Enjoy your videos and your wife is a trooper.

[@davetoms63]

Great hunt. Love seeing you two enjoying your passion. She's a trooper, most of us would have went back to the truck after sinking waist deep lol. I see a book in her future.... I married the DIY Sportsman: A lifetime of muck, innovation and antlers .... lol Looking forward to your next hunt :)

[@rods-n-regscharters9099]

You are a blessed man, Garret. Sam is a real trooper and is a great partner for you. Be safe-be successful. Have a great year.

[@ryonshaw1868]

What are you wearing on your feet in the first minutes of the video? I'm needing something like that for work. Just don't know where to look. Thanks for any info and all your awesome content.

They were mudder boots: www.mudderboots.com/

[@michaelpatrick6840]

I have to echo previous comments, your wife is a trooper! Also what the heck are your squeaky floats?

[@DIYSportsman]

They are Mudder Boots, intended to help prevent you from sinking as far into muck, originally designed for guys like duck hunters in mud flats and salt marshes.

I've been dragging my girlfriend out hunting since we started dating and she has become addicted to it. She's taken 2 deer and 2 turkeys with her bow.

[@harrystevenson7098]

Truly awesome you two make walking through the Swamp look easy keep up the good hunting thanks for taking the time to make video's it's gotta be hard

[@buckmark23]

In South Louisiana, we call that floutua (Flow-toa) or floating marsh. It's like walking on a waterbed but with holes in it.

[@underdogoutdoors]

At least this time of year, there's less bugs in the swamp. Very cool video, as usual.

[@davidfleer5307]

So how long did it take you hiking back across the marsh in the dark

[@DIYSportsman]

Too long lol!!

[@100Ronster]

Thanks for taking us along with you, great camera work!

[@mrd4865]

Sam is a trooper! I've never met a woman that would follow me across a floating bog and then sit in a tree to film me. If I ever do, I'm marrying her. lol Those bog shoes work? Some of these places scare me, but I'm always alone, so no one to help me get out. I've been stuck enough to leave a pair of boots behind. It can be a struggle.

[@DIYSportsman]

They work well for the stuff they were designed for like the tidal flats. It seems they don't work quite as well in these really grassy areas since the grass prevents them from fully spreading open like intended.

[@mrd4865]

@@DIYSportsman Thanks man. I'm going through the same habitat, so I'll just keep trudging. Luckily a lot of these spots I can kind of "hummock hop". Be safe out there and good luck!

[@cammoammooutdooradventures5910]

True sportsman. Didnt shoot.after light with it being that close. Awesome vids.

[@biggnoutdoors701]

@@DIYSportsman Have you ever tried small snow shoes?

[@renemenard8155]

Another great video young man You have a great wife to hang in there with you through that bogg. Keep up the good work and stay lucky

[@ryanstever6906]

My wife would have been reading me the riot act! I couldn't get my wife to go out in a swamp like that and she hunts lol

[@daveynewman]

Wow I totally high five sam Most hunters i know woukd have said fuck this and went back to the truck after getting that deep. I like the strategy you took with A B C D E Smart tactics on staying on fresh sign

[@quinnshuntingchannel5779]

Carlos Avery?

[@hunterslavings4982]

Another great video. I know it sucked going across at night.

[@bowhunter9288]

Met this guy in Cabelas. Hes super tall.

[@troyrozeske2557]

If you were to shoot a deer back where you were, How do you drag it out of there?

[@JeremyReger]

Tissue box shoes! 😂

[@lefthandedarcher2126]

Nice, enjoined the content

[@Minnesotalife]

Looks like Carlos avery.

[@colbykinney5633]

I killed one of my biggest bucks when my wife was driving deer for me. It's pretty cool that ya'll get to enjoy the outdoors together.

[@inth0004]

Where can we get those rubber shoe attachments and do they really work?

[@DIYSportsman]

They're called "mudders". They seem to work best on more open soft ground like mud or silly ground without grass. Once you get a lot of grass it seems to keep the wings from opening up as much.

[@gillihu4236]

like this german hunting sandalen weidmannsheil from austria

[@MayorOfGoodells]

You're really going to walk in there with shoeboxes strapped to your feet and not talk about it?
