I’m so glad I watched this. I just realized I pack so much unnecessary stuff for “just in case”. I need it. Was an eye opener!

[@B.r.i.a.n.1]

I havent see one of those vests in years. My buddy had one with seat belt style clasps. Blast from the past. Haha

[@patriot1182]

Interesting!Great job!

[@bricehale6593]

Believe it or not I wear pants when I'm hunting 😂 u crack me up Dan great setup well though out

[@Susky62]

Learned about Purslane last year. I like it.

[@OzarkMidwest]

The sound of a bow draw above the head when navigating in the dark is something else!!

[@thehuntingbeast]

Its enough to make me light up like a Christmas tree from now on...

[@ericwittman3]

Prostrate spurge is a euphorbia and common purslane is a portulaca. Both garden bed and turf weeds. Both drought, heat, and deer resistant

[@juniorthompson9303]

I went to keeping my release strapped ALWAYS to my bow.

[@trevinoutdoors8956]

The safety harness is a big thing to me there's a few they just suck the cheap ones are a hassle to put on and I've had them come unhooked I wish someone would come up with a good one with pockets.

[@fueyang3391]

Don't eat spurge. The way you can tell the difference? When you eat spurge, YOU DIE! ROFL! That was hilarious and got me laughing out loud. 😂😂

[@tomzygmunt6891]

I love your T-shirt collection 👍

[@newhampshireoutdoornetwork9505]

I'm guilty of taking more things than I need. I was always thought it's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. There's a problem though I went overboard with it and this year I'm not taking a backpack in the wood with me anymore. Great video Dan keep them coming

[@tatoo190]

Guilty of that as well!

[@ML-ks2lj]

Depends how far ya going. I carry 32 ounces of water my bow 2 knives and 2 flash lights a wad of paper towel and about 25ft of Paracord and 15 ft of bank line a lighter and a bunch of milkweed my hunting stool and a couple granola bars

[@paulcrave3112]

Nice place you have there Dan.

[@mr.skeptical3071]

I am really trying to get away from having a pack, but I like the idea of carrying my jacket in my pack and putting it on After I'm in my tree and starting to cool down. I also like taking a snack and spare stuff like gloves, head net, batteries for my headlamp, etc. I put my calls and release in it as well. But man I would love to go packless! I Will however not take one for only sitting the last two hours on a p.m. hunt though

[@christophermiller9125]

Nothing wrong with taking a backpack Just try not to completely fill it up! A lot of times a small backpack like you had in school is all you need depends on how far you're going in if you're packing out a animal but if you want to be a minimalist, the safety vest with pockets and packing gear on your stand or saddle setup is the way to go. ( my o-pin-yun). Shoot a big one this season👍

[@brushcrawler8612]

Same with the addition of I like that my platform and saddle fits inside of it and there are many different straps and buckles on it to tie up your sticks, jacket, hip waders, etc.

[@HuntingFactor]

Good shooting Dan 👍🏼🦌

[@BowMadOutdoors]

Today was my lazy day, so it was an all day Sunday with Dan Infalt

[@tonyellis6383]

glow stick, frickin genius........I have left a deer to go drop off gear and head back out, that would be perfect to leave it hanging from a branch were the deer is

[@shanedavis6306]

Forgot the bow stuff, where I get a shirt like that! 😆

[@zekeoutdoors]

I'm fornsure gonna buy one of them camera mounts, even if I just put my phone on or a go pro for now

[@arthurdirindinjr1792]

I really matured as a hunter in the last 10 seasons Use to bring a 2500ci day pack full of gear on every hunt Now most hunts I only carry what I can fit in my pockets and a med sized fanny pack Heaviest thing I now carry other than my bow is my 4.9" P320 Most bow hunts now dont even pack any snacks or water Usually take a 5" folding saw Fiskers pruning shears two XSM head lamps ORG surveyors tape 30mm film container of milk weed Leatherman Wave binos LRF compass Buck Vanguard and phone bow rope & Hanger Just makes hunting all around more enjoyable having simplified things

[@BowMadOutdoors]

SUPER cool info, also Awsome to see you have a complete hunting package plan on Beast Gear. I’ve been using a lone wolf climber for years, with all my gear I’m still carrying 30 to 40lb, be time for a change soon, your package weighs what? 11lbs

[@thehuntingbeast]

stands under 7 pound, each stick is under 2 pounds.

[@ukjw2]

My dad and I each got a pair of rocky rubber boots in 2003 or so when I was in school. After the military and years of travel, I grabbed them from his house in 2019 or so and they still work great with no leaks. I wonder if they weren’t made the same way many are made today.

[@thehuntingbeast]

Yea the old LaCross boots we used to get in the 90s had the same quality as the Gumleaf's but modern Chinese boots including LaCross don't last me 1/2 a season. Gumleaf is made out of rubber not a plastic/rubber mix

[@Ranger.Vt.]

One of the main ingredients these companies started adding along with plastic, is clay to the rubber to cut corners . So instead of 100% rubber like the old days. It’s more like 70/30. Years ago we always used Lacross and Northerner rubber boots on our farm and they lasted for years. Putting them through the ringer in the barn. Now, hunting Lacross don’t last a full season. The clay/plastic drys out and they constantly crack. Another great boot company is Baffin out of Canada. 100% rubber, expensive, but they last.

[@rorynelson7548]

Hell yeah I got the Prime revex 2

[@johnpayne9421]

Sharpen the montec yourself 600 then 1200 diamond stone then stab a rineheart target 3 times and they are dangerously scalpel sharp👍

[@zekeoutdoors]

We put that stuff in the juicer , full of nutrients , very healthy

[@digginthepast1235]

Dan , I just wanted to say thank you for getting me out of my comfort zone 🇺🇸

[@markeverson5849]

Don't break your back on a motorcycle and have a spinal cord injury like I did in the leather camps in 1995 but I did learn to walk again after 7 weeks in Froedtert hospital and a helicopter ride but it took a year to learn to walk again I even went back to painting Barnes for a living anyways it's made my life difficult that was in 1995 here I am in it's almost 2024 I'm going to start bow hunting again😊

[@killemorwoundemoutdoors5904]

You really should design your own safety harness I know there's a lot that comes with that but we as viewers can tell you have a lot left to be desired when it comes to the harness

[@mattlonon9947]

King of the graphic tees.

[@justinstation9969]

That's the best shirt yet 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@skylerleclair3288]

I'm losing the backpack this season too

[@Cummins-]

I would like to hear more about that no light scary situation

[@huntfishandgrow4140]

He’s told the story before. I wish I could remember which video. A poacher drew on him

[@sniffum35]

Purslane tolerates salinity better than just about everything. So if you salt your driveway, that's probably why it grows there.

[@ericbrooks8573]

Great info as always....so important to travel light. Theres always something else we think we need to bring along....glad you wear pants, I dont😳

[@Cappnkeef57]

@ericbrooks8573 don’t let him fool ya he takes his off as well

[@jeffboutilier5075]

Have you ever eaten milkweed pods? A woman I know from Ontario eats them, she had some recipes on her Instagram last month.

[@craigwagner327]

We call that pig weed in ohio. Pigs love those. Didn't know they were that good eating

[@JGunit]

Why don't they make a foldable stick? Like an accordion. Like three long with an assist.

[@shelbyraines234]

Great content Dan you should look at Paradise hill Oklahoma there ain't very many bow hunters around here there's some real biggins south Indian road core land no rifle hunting anyway God bless vote Trump & Vance

[@dualthreatoutdoors]

Dan, I remember the other year you were using Sik fixed blade heads, what made you go away from them?

[@thehuntingbeast]

SIK are great heads... If I was not using the strikers I would be using them. I just like the 3 blades but really they preformed pretty similar.

[@KeystoneOutdoorsman]

Thanks for the video Dan! Do you use a bow holder?

[@thehuntingbeast]

No.. I usually hang on a limb. if nothing is available I put on my lap.

[@gordonlightfoot1333]

Is that hss harness the older model " pro" series ? Or does have the Y strap on the back or is it like a actuall vest?

[@thehuntingbeast]

Its an old one...

[@ozzman171]

HI Dan, what do you use to carry five sticks up the tree? Really only three but how do you get them up?

[@thehuntingbeast]

1st one is hung standing on the ground... second one is hung standing on the ground. 3rd one I get one stick up and hang it. 4th one I put the stand on my back and have a rope to my bow and make one trip. If its a 5 stick tree I go up and down on the 4th stick

[@AndyHardCore19]

That shirt 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@goldxpeak3842]

Do the lacrosse burly not last for you either? I’ve always thought they were a great basic boot and often much taller than other rubbers.

[@thehuntingbeast]

They aint what they used to be. I can't get a season out of those since they went to China.

[@goldxpeak3842]

@@thehuntingbeastgotcha good to know. I just got a pair of Danners pronghorns on 25% discount last season and they have been good but I definitely don’t put the miles you do on a pair.

[@MollyDogg1234]

I'm not trying to criticize you in any way, or knock your bow what so ever, just offering my my opinion after hearing you shoot it. Your bow is making quite the "twang" after the shot. Didn't know if you noticed it too, but I wanted to say something. Hate to have you miss or wound a deer due to it reacting to the twang. I enjoy your videos and have learned a lot from you!!

[@brokenarrow6491]

It's probably the microphone amplifying the sound. It's probably plenty quiet enough.

[@rorynelson7548]

Probably the quiver vibing

[@thatguyfishingben4794]

All I'm gonna say is it's hard to criticize a man with that many quality heads on the wall.

[@jeffallen3382]

It sounds to me like it's the garage echoing the noise and the camera microphone amplifying the noise?

[@Javelinfisher]

😂😂😂😂😂😂 you have no idea who Dan is do you??

[@topnotchstudio9234]

What do you use to hang your bow? thank you!

[@thehuntingbeast]

I usually hang it from my camera arm or a limb.

[@christiancarlson5431]

Drinks are on me. 😂😂😂😂

[@jordanhill5072]

Pickled purslane ain't too bad either.

[@zekeoutdoors]

5 sicks just make a bigger shelf to pack your deer out on the beast stand

[@davetoms63]

I think all that weight Dan lost was from eating all those "forbes"

[@justintanner7020]

Dnt go crossin those property lines into private & you shouldn’t run into any barb wire hahaha j/k Dan

[@upnorthoutdoors989]

Gumleaf cru

[@jeffreysfinds7474]

Wow I've been screwing up ever since blinds have been available by using them. and putting a medium size very comfortable swivel chair in it so comfortable I sometimes fall asleep take a short nap while I'm hunting. When I could be hunting 12 ft off the ground or more in a tree stand like this and look at all that space you have for your feet and most important look at that seat wow I can only imagine how it would feel sitting in that seat in a tree

[@thehuntingbeast]

I put together a gear video because it was a common request... If you don't want to know what I use, or you don't like what I do or say... pretty easy to skip right by and let those who want to know what works for me see it.

@@roosterdope6778I was the same only went for a few days rifle season for yrs. Wanted to get into bows so bought a crossbow 2 yrs ago and just bought a compound this year. Ppl say crossbows are bad but for me it just got me into bow hunting more and now I only plan to use compound. Never been so excited for deer season. May even just use compound during rifle season for the challenge and fun of it.

The way you hunt I hope you dont rip that limb driven cable off going thru think brush.

[@takuroshinji2445]

Why are you not using a single bevel, it seems everyone is using them anymore. I personally like 3 blades but figured i'd ask, thank you.

[@thehuntingbeast]

I tested several single bevel broadheads. For me, and for my set up, the G5 strikers blew best to all the distances I could shoot and had the best penetration in testing. So kinda likr hunting tactics, Im going to use what works best for me and my set up rather than listen to the hype...

Sorry I asked while watching then you got to them. I’m considering them too. I like the idea of the vents to stay cool on the long walks in and out. Love my beast stand and sticks. Good luck this year

[@emilyengels8891]

I would probably shoot a different broad head after mine bounced off a deer this past season.

[@thehuntingbeast]

My broadhead performed flawlessly... It was the arrows that failed. They broke on contact causeing the loss of kinetic energy.

[@andrewlafontaine9525]

Polymer

[@tubesurfing]

Dan havent you ever thought about using a traditional bow instead of those training wheels ¿...after all you did say Wensel was a guy that influenced you and youve already killed so many nice bucks with a compound I just thought I would challenge you because you would have to take the time to get decent before you actually started flinging arrows at real deer. But youd be suprised it doesnt take that long to get decent with a longbow you should try it.
