I love the videos

Is there fish in there pond at the mill creek property?

[@marylouise890]

My husband and I are shopping around for life insurance. We have some issues takin care of but not all. Gonna give this a look see. Thank You Daniel ✌️🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@blueyedmermaid1447]

That was an extremely bad analogy comparing cats to pigs.. cats are considered a predatory animal. Yes they (cats) absolutely kill birds and other animals. But comparing a feral cat in cities Is absolutely wrong because simply put cats also kill rats and mice that carry diseases that are harmful to humans. Cats are not land destructive. So using killing feral hogs with the analogy of feral cats. You're condoning that it is okay to kill cats. Which is absolutely not acceptable. I enjoy watching your content but this statement was horrible. There are other things that you could have said to explain what damage and dangers feral hogs bring. You might actually put your brain in gear next time before engaging your mouth. Think before you speak!!

[@HanleiHess]

Your humor is on point, always puts a smile on my face!

[@craigb9489]

Daniel, your honesty is awesome. Thank you for sharing Arms Family Bloopers.

[@janicehaas4618]

Glad it worked out. Always good to see Houston. Thanks for the smiles 😊. Have a blessed day ❤️

[@TerryDavison-f1k]

Thank you Daniel for having me along I hope y'all have a great day God bless y'all love y'all 😊

[@loisfehr7961]

Houston, I enjoy seeing you help your Dad. You are learning so much!

[@sherriecurry4962]

I agree that Houston is so fun to watch. He is surprisingly humble but he is also very brave. He is willing to tackle some of the craziest things.

[@ellenmorgan3186]

I love your trapping videos. Also Houston is really getting taller! He's a fine young man. Be proud of him as I am sure you are.

[@bowed305]

Your face after the trap got stuck, lol. Best part of the video!

[@Allabovetherest088]

Omg I love these pig videos. I find it so entertaining and interesting. Thank you Daniel keep them coming. Blessings to you and the beautiful family.❤

[@lynnechapman6204]

I always enjoy watching you trap pigs, especially the large groups. I'm sorry that you had so much trouble, but you kept it up and WON! Have a great day.

[@jeffreybrown-bos1913]

Thank you guys for always making my day ever time you post

[@martharock8377]

I feel bad for laughing the second time the trap got hung up, but seriously 😂😂😂 glad you finally got the big bunch!

[@shsronhill8961]

I enjoy watching you. Even though things don’t go your way you don’t get too upset you just call it part of life. My son is so much like you. He doesn’t allow things to get under his skin he just takes it with stride.

[@christinepaterson18]

Daniel, your boy is going to be a really big help in a couple of years. Good job Housten.

[@ThomasDeloge-ge4qk]

Glad to see Houston being able to use tools to help you out. Never to yoking to learn.

[@brucerowe2895]

Houston is getting taller, and thanks for this video, I thought it was simpler than that. Shows that things don't work out as planed. Practice makes prefect.

[@Daniel-bd3vi]

Great job getting rid of those nuisance hogs! Keep up the awesome Land Management Daniel!

[@georgegaiennie3747]

Fine job with the hawk.

[@JessicaStinson-og1rq]

Don’t feel too bad if things didn’t go right right away or as you planned them, it helps other people to know that their heroes are actually fairly human. And that everyone has a little trouble and some setbacks in their life. Personally, I think it made for a better video.

[@petecortez8295]

It's good to see your son accompanying you everywhere especially during this stuff together.... nowadays you don't see many sons doing things with their dad or even if it's a daughter regardless it is a blessing to see this.... you have done a good job with him in raising him, showing him that life is not as easy as others put it.... It's a blessing to see you preparing him ..GOD bless you all....

[@billieaschmeller5524]

This has to be one of my favorite Arms Fam videos Daniel. Laugh at yourself!! I found it quite entertaining and HILARIOUS 😂😅😂 Love your content!

[@katepollard-vithanage889]

You are so awesome for helping with the Hawk. What a great guy and helper you are!

[@judydavidson722]

I counted 12 with the babies , good job you guys , love watching y'all.

So glad you caught the big group. No one is perfect. Only Jesus was perfect. Great job.

[@Saber_Outdoors]

Thank you for showing the struggle. It adds realism to you and your videos

Good job Houston! You caught it!!!🎉🎉😂🎉 Great job Daniel. 😂🎉 Patience pays off.😊😊 Thanks for showing that is rarely easy but comes with continuing to try & grow.❤

[@pamp5797]

You showing the issues you've had just makes your channel the best. Thank you for your honesty. Sorry but I snickered at the trap gone wrong. This has been one of your more amusing videos. Do you not eat wild hogs? Lester has Trudy. Good job Houston.

[@howardc6677]

It's hot in Central Louisiana too 96 with heat index 108. Glad you got Hunter involved with tripping the hogs! He will remember this all his live. Love him catching the little pig. Great catch Houston!

[@lindakinsey1093]

You certainly made me smile today. Thanks. And sorry for your sleepless nights.

[@leemullally8774]

Daniel, I thought your facial expressions made this video. I was laughing so hard but still feeling empathic toward you as you worked through the problems. Thanks for sharing how everything doesn’t go as planned. Thanks for the laughs.

[@gwynethyaita3774]

Don’t give up just keep trying again and again.Danial just have to concentrate a little bit harder. God bless you and your family. Thanks for getting the hogs.we all have some off days

[@pattiripley7599]

I get you on heat and humidity. Today was 94 and 79% humidity. Not always so bad on humidity, but this has been extra fun even without rain. Would be better if it rained but my grass is tall enough.

[@Wild_Bill57]

As person who’s done many customer service calls, the first question is always, “Is it plugged in?”

[@williamgahman5028]

Hi Daniel and Family. Love watching yall catching hogs Great that yall helped catch the hawk. Not having much luck. That's a lot of hogs. God bless and love yall ❤❤

[@barbarajohnson1348]

I know the guy who uses that same trap got 100+ last year not moving the trap. Just watched every day. Never getting little ones

[@terriebanyas3325]

I appreciate your honesty, as always.

[@vickibwarren9722]

So happy for you that the trap finally worked!!! If at first you don't succeed try try again... You finally got the big group trapped❤. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your blessed day XXXO 💕😁

[@emjustice1158]

I feel your frustration on this project. I don't catch pigs but any project that doesn't go as smoothly as expected is frustrating. Glad that in the end it worked and the pigs were caught.

[@yaixa98]

I sincerely hope that Houston keeps following in your footsteps. Even if he is gone for colleague I expect him to never say goodbye to the family homestead and the work ethics that you are installing in him. Your channel is one of the few that I really enjoy following because the contents of the videos.

[@marylouise890]

Did you miss Houston saying, I’ll be back 😊He want get too far from Home. Gotta love that kid. Sometimes he is a regular kid. And there have been a few times I have seen a man reaching out……🇺🇸💞💞🇺🇸

[@yaixa98]

@@marylouise890 Yes, I remember him saying that to his father. But is it that you don't like in my comment? Or I don't have the right to say it?

[@brendabadih8855]

What can college teach this young man? He's getting an exceptional education right now. Just read great literature to learn a good vocabulary, communication skills and the power of a trained mind. May l recommend the novel Ben Hur. Fabulous story. Exciting and reverant. And Robinson Crusoe. Thanks for helping even that chicken killer hawk. ✝️

[@sharonanderson4688]

Oh my, your face about the 19 minute mark when the trap got caught up was priceless.

[@morganus62]

Could not agree more, I was laughing so hard with the way he made that face!

[@denise2008ful]

I laughed hard at that face he made!

[@kodabear3304]

Yup. We laughed too. That was an Elmer Fudd moment.

[@gracewashburn8276]

That was very nice of you. I hope they can help the hawk fix its wing and maybe get it back in the air again❤❤😮😮😮😮

[@averyllpenwright2222]

Awww Daniel you have patience you will get them❤❤❤❤❤

[@KaZoo62]

It seems from the camera angle that the poles were not vertically straight, aligned so when you drop the cage that's what may have prevented it from sliding directly down. Add some grease.

[@denisetilman4361]

You need to get one of those fans that you clip on your belt line and it keeps you cool

WOW....hope u finally get a good night sleep....great video....nice how u were gentle with that huge hawk😊.....great piggy catching Houston ❤

[@kimmontgomery54]

Whew! What a time you had! I’m so glad you got them! I believe I would have processed at least one of them!😅! Houston did a great job of catching the little ones!😂! I hope everyone is doing well! Lots of prayers for y’all! Love and blessings from this old Bama girl!❤❤❤

[@prayingmantis1977]

I know that it was extremely frustrating for you, but it was enjoyable for me. The grass has gotten really tall. I differently like these videos here - than the fishing ones!

[@jfl121]

Love when you drop the trap. Do not remember it taking this long before. But that is okay you got them now.🥰

[@michaelpriest6242]

The good, the bad and the ugly. It takes all of them to add up to life. Your persistence in the face of frustration is admirable. 😊

Sometime you just have a bad day. Houston you did great catching that pig. God bless y'all. 🙏❤🙏❤

[@jeffhiatt4000]

It makes content. Makes a boring day meaningful.

[@Wild_Bill57]

Daniel, you need a checklist, just like pilots have when they’re getting ready to fly. I’d never remember all that stuff to do either!

[@brucerowe2895]

Houston has a knack of doing things right the first time, have him look over your traps, and you will probably have a better out come. But one never knows.

[@marylouise890]

You did the lady and the hawk a huge Thank You Daniel! Honestly I don’t know what your community would do without You. Houston in your tracks. I’m proud of the Arms Men🇺🇸 Daniel I have known you now for many years, socially from the YT community. And Daniel after I finished watching you working to get those stinky wild hogs off your green lush fields of food that is for Your Wildlife, I was wishing I could shake your hand. The closest I can get from here is a virtual 🤗 And to say, your dad is very Proud of his Son. I want to add a few words. But can’t seem to do it. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🤲🗳🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@markwhitten7911]

That was a fun video. Dang near made the agony of defeat. The thrill of victory. From days past.

[@rodstruven9051]

That is just you being honest showing how it really is

[@S_Waltz]

Daniel I think you’re ready to graduate to their larger trap. Seems like as in Texas these sounders are hard to eradicate. They multiple like flees. Good luck and love the honest content. Cooler weather is a month away. 👍👍🤘😎🤘❄️🥶❄️

[@maverickspirit208]

I did a search on why hogs have curly tails and it was very interesting. The theory is that pigs with curly tails are descendants of Chinese fighting pigs that were bred for competitions, and the curl helps to prevent other pigs from biting off long straight tails. Interestingly, it said that most wild hogs in Texas reportedly have straight tails like domestic pigs in the US. I'm not sure why some tails curl to the left, and others to the right, as Daniel caught hogs with tails curling both directions, so I've got another searching to do on that. Looks like the function of swine's tail is for swatting flies and body language communication. May God bless the Arms family.

[@kayburgess8536]

Thank you

[@victorserao7180]

I’m sorry to hear about your dad. I know you talked about it a couple of times but don’t wait until you’re 50 go away and get a check or reason I’m telling you I love your show. I love the contact you put out and I would miss not seeing you on the video, including your family and a little guy that’s growing up so fast I would love to meet your people. I think you’re a great bunch of people.❤️👍

I am amazed at how easily they load into the trailer. Thanks for your honesty.

[@marvinbryant2151]

The hogs have exploded in numbers everywhere. Even with the problems you had with the trap, they're really effective. I wish there was a place near Victoria, TX that would take hogs like you have there. I've driven up on roadside parks with 20 dead hogs laid out. That would have fed a bunch of people. Great video sir! Keep getting those porkers!

[@johnbowen1493]

Dan, what you have now, compared to what we did 40 years ago, is like the difference between wet and dry! I remember sitting in a tree for days on end picking off one at a time till Dad was satisfied with the numbers. We didn't have traps but we were not dealing with the numbers you have now. Good on you Hoss. Get as many as you can!

[@hopefulhope9123]

[@phillipshogtrapping]

That green wire you have hooked up, I would change it around because the green goes to green and the clear part of the connection wire goes to your latch. The reason why is because the it’ll light up red when it’s activated so that’s how you know you have power going to the latch. I have many of times forgot to remove safety pins, winch cables, or have a fully charged battery put into the trap. You got this man! Keep up the great work and keep the videos coming!!

[@aliasfred]

Did you ever notice that Mr. Ellis puts all the corn in a pile, in the middle of his traps? He does that so all the hogs are well into the trap before he drops it.

[@JP-bv7bf]

I could feel your frustration in all the trap failures. Great job catching them and for Huston catching the baby pig. 🇨🇦

When my dad passed last year August 14th he did leave insurance policy that my sister and I both benefited from it. Glad to have it but rather have my dad. 😢
