That’s the goal for sure!

[@braxtonpatricksilk]

He will be telling that story for years

[@braxtonpatricksilk]

The videos are fire

[@samanthaflynn6140]

I just love Houston's emotional moments. Not that I love to see people cry, but to see how much this time means to him. He will remember these times hunting with his dad forever! 💜

[@AngelBluff]

Houston learned a lesson every great hunter has to learn. Very proud that he decided to share it with us, so others can learn from it. He's a wonderful young man. He earned his strips that day. Much respect to him

[@hookedwithhayden9408]

He tried he did a good job I

It is always awesome seeing Huston have a smile on his face

[@kissiemann2751]

YES IT IS I LOVE ME SOME HUSTON.HUSTON IS NEVER WRONG IN MY EYES.THAT IS MY SWEETHEART.

[@MacNorowl]

I’m no sniper but Marine Corps trained and it works. BRASSF. Breathe, Relax, Aim, Squeeze, Shoot, Follow Thru. I promise Houston if you follow this, especially squeeze and realizing your shot by bringing yourself naturally to the point you squeezed off a round and your original sight picture, you will hit what you’re aiming at if your rifle is true. Love you lil’ bro and Arms Family. Take this one on the cheek on the way to understanding. I’d be privileged to shoot rounds down range with you and coach off camera. God Bless.

[@KrisAndLarry]

Houston did AMAZING! There is always another time!

[@julieheilman2065]

Emily and Houston are beautiful kids. Houston is a character himself. He just melts my ♥️. Wishing them luck during regular season.

[@readneck8034]

Keep your head up Houston! I missed my buck of a lifetime last year but told myself, “well you live and you learn”. There is something to be gained in every adventure, even if it doesn’t work out the way you want it to! You have many adventures to come, just keep us posted on your future hunting and fishing adventures!

[@kathymagee9099]

Well like you said, it was definitely a learning experience for both of them. I love living vicariously through your family. Thanks for allowing me to be a part of it. ❤❤🦌

[@rockylee482]

Even if Houston and Emily didn’t get one they still got memories with their father!!! Teaching them those life lessons and making the best memories with them!!!

[@jamesmckay2134]

Thanks for sharing these two great kids and their hunting experience with their dad. I am utterly confident they will both get their buck very soon. Time to set the pig trap Anso again. No blinds were hurt in the making of this video lol.

[@davidstoughton3257]

Some day when your kids are parents they will look back upon there youth and realize what an amazing Mom and Dad they had. I miss my Dad so much !!

[@evalinawarne1337]

David,. I miss my parent's a LOT. No matter what age we are. We need and want our parent's. THANK YOU LORD for giving David GREATEST DAD and me the GREATEST PARENTS. AMEN

[@lolliedean1543]

I'm SO impressed with both your kids!! Neither one of them get the buck fever shakes at all!!! It don't matter how many I put in my sites, my hands shake so bad!

[@jessicamgallion8977]

Keep your head up Houston, you'll get him next time. It happens to the best of us. Don't give up, you've got a great spot, and a great teacher (your dad) to help you.

[@daniellesduckheadhomestead3127]

Totally understandable. Houston has a great heart and is a great sportsman. You are doing a great job raising your kids right. Better luck next time buddy. Thanks for sharing. Take care, see ya :)

[@easttxredneck]

I love hunting with my girls. Great memories are made in the the deer blind. Not just the killing, but the other stuff. What impressed me is when the deer left, the first thing Houston did was put the gun on safety.

[@cherylsmith9036]

Awe, Houston, you are so adorable! I’m so glad you’re making memories with your Dad. I didn’t start hunting until I was in my 30's. After I married, my husband taught me to hunt. I hunted every season for a little over 30 years. I’m in my 70’s now and we no longer hunt due to health reasons. I enjoyed going hunting with you in this video. The sounds and whispers brought back so many fond memories. Just remember, if taking the safety off, and aiming at a deer no longer gets your adrenaline up, then it’s time to stop hunting. Here’s to many more decades of hunting and teaching your own kids and grandkids to hunt❣️

[@michaelwaddeington5307]

Cheryl, second to the last sentence says it all. God Bless. Mike

[@jameswallace3043]

And again my favorite miss Emily keeps proving her professionalism in her willingness to be patient and wait for the big one that's what makes me totally awesome

[@marciaborg77]

Love the smiles on there faces each time they went out with you.

[@scox4947]

You’re so right Daniel!! It is a super awesome blessing for You, Emma Leigh, and Houston to be able to learn and share this experience together!!

[@debbieadams712]

I'm proud of both Houston and Emily. They put in a great effort. Thanks for sharing this video, I really enjoyed it. God bless

[@nestpeeper]

Houston stay positive. Mistakes happen buddy. While not as satisfying as a deer in the freezer, it's still a successful hunt if you learn from the error. Just remember those big ones that get away this year will be even bigger next year.

[@charmainelawless8959]

U should of took the first your deer there meat is the best

[@carinaperez9925]

I love that you are teaching your children about where your food comes from and how not to take fir granted. You are really great parents. I am not a hunter only because in my life I was never offered the opportunity BUT I don't think Huston has anything to be embarrassed about. It's just life. He is an awesome boy lucky enough to enjoy an amazing childhood. 👍

[@FREEDOMREDBIRD]

Oh poor Houston, I really thought he nailed it! There was several times I was like take that shot but he didn’t. It happens thou, don’t give up Houston!

[@tinaphillips3226]

Thank you for sharing the whole picture. It teaches the rest of us how me need to be calm in the excitement of life. Blessings to you and your lovely family.

[@mikejames7013]

In Maine the first Saturday before the regular season starts is Youth Day. But then they can also hunt during the regular season. No night hunting. Right now it's Moose season. It's tough when you know you hit your target but then just can't find it, especially when you're 8. Season's just begun you got more chances, don't give up hope.

[@jameswallace3043]

I love you how can you not love him he's so energetic and so sincere and bless his heart ❤️

[@Dangle_Nation]

Keep your head up Houston! Still a great time in the woods with your dad! Daniel, thanks for taking them out and getting them into the outdoors!! Great video! Nothing to be embarrassed of here buddy!!

[@julie-annecordwell3290]

Awesome to see Houston n Emily giving it a go they should be proud of themselves

[@CatchingupwithCam]

I really appreciate your family’s transparency. Great video!! It def happens to many hunters, kids and adults. Thanks for sharing this!!

[@marygordon3032]

Aw Houston l hope you find your deer, and l hope that EmmaLee gets one too. Thanks Daniel you’re a great Dad. Blessings! 🤩🤩🤩👍👍👍👏👏👏💯💯💯❤️

[@kennethslice9397]

The music at the end sounds like "A Country Boy Can Survive" and Houston certainly will....he'll be skinning that buck soon!

[@hammerslap5639]

One thing that should be pointed out... Houston has better trigger discipline than most adults.

[@wykeishacraft6820]

Congraulation ! A lovely family that always spending time trying to teach and show others how it go. Stay Safe , prayers in the air for everyone, have a bless day.

[@billmills9079]

I enjoy the content you guys put out it’s great content we got to see the nerves of both the kids I love it them getting to hang out with there father and learn a new way of life don’t worry about the haters

[@jeannedennis5863]

Steve says: Good morning everyone. Lol

[@wykeishacraft6820]

Good evening to Arms Family Homestead and all others too. Congraulation on the hunting with your kids Daniel that is good teaching them different activities fishing taking care animals and hunting also cooking. What A Blessing!

[@julievanschyndel550]

Bummer! But I agree it's what hunting season is all about. I loved the sights and sounds of nature in both video, the baby nursing was priceless!

[@angelleah]

I'm new to your channel after doing research about goats since I just recently got 2 of them. I really love this channel and your videos. I also really like Bear.

[@donnabowers1317]

Hey Houston, I want to thank you and your dad for sharing this experience with all us. It is a tuff one to swallow, but don’t fret. You’ll nail a buck soon enough, I’ll be praying for ya. I always wished I could of gone hunting, but I wasn’t blessed with a real dad and there were no other father figured in my life to fill in that void of not having a dad. You’re a very lucky boy to have such a wonderful family with a dad that has the time and knowledge to pass down to his son. Not all hunters have good hunting and teaching skills. But your dad is in the straight and narrow in handing down those excellent hunting skills to you and your sister. You’re tough Houston and you will bag that 🦌 deer, no doubt about that. Prayers and Blessings to everyone in the Arms Family.

[@deannazandi1797]

Mr Arms, GOD BLESS You for investing in your Children. Your videos that you share with us are a reflection of GODS WORDS. As the silent tears roll down my face, I miss my Dad , he is in his forever home. He was my on earth hero. Please remember your a Dad, a teacher, a counselor for a life time. May you continue to REAP the Fruit of the Spirit. 😇

[@myheartisinthemountains2660]

I can't BELIEVE how many deer you all get to see in one sitting! Wild! Keep at it kiddos.

[@ednarobinson3424]

It was beautiful to see them jump that fence. ❤️🇺🇸

[@helenscott8202]

You taught some real lessons this year: there are times you are consumed with hunting fever and still have to wait on the shot; sometimes there are too many deer to take a shot; sometimes the deer just doesn’t go down and gets away after being shot. These are hard, necessary lessons. Glad you showed them. The adults trying to teach their kids can show them to their kids, too.

[@hyggehomestead5386]

great parenting. love that you spend quality time with your kids and teach them

[@randys.kuenzli7809]

Daniel, I watch all of these videos and the things your children learn and have the opportunity for are amazing. In watching, it brings me to tears thinking about what my life would have been like if I'd have had similar opportunities. I never knew nor had any of these chances in growing up. I was 9 when I lost my dad of 72. My Mom was an amazing woman, who I loved dearly, she gave me a wonderful life but these types of opportunities just weren't there. You and DJ are are truly amazing parents, all three will grow even more aware of that with every year that passes.

[@WCTarheel]

They are already very accomplished hunters. I hunted for years and never got one. The enjoyment of being outdoors is a reward in itself.

[@rebeccasanford8607]

Greetings from East Texas! Houston… keep your head up and keep learning. My 12 yr old Grandson will be going out for Youth Hunt. Sending good JuJu to both you boys!

[@kelleystauble7770]

Arms Family kids are the best! Thank you for raising amazing kids. God Bless You All!

[@vonetapedersen4947]

Such a patient young man and love seeing the serious emotional facial expressions and he’s not my boi but sure proud of him! Xoxoxo

[@jameswallace3043]

Thank you Daniel for sharing your trials and errors and experiences and the utmost ability to get out there and hunt deer with teenagers you did a fine job Daniel I appreciate you buddy good luck in the rest of the year

[@hapnewsom9217]

Took me three tries to get my first buck, two shots with my heart pounding so loud I thought the deer heard it and finally a buck that came along just when I was tired enough to be too tired to be excited. I've never hunted from a blind, and never hunted on flat land for deer or elk...tromping through the mountains is worth it though even if you don't get meat on the table!!

[@spicybrycie1286]

Yea the first deer I saw with a gun in my hands I started chuckling and I felt like I was going to throw up.🤮🤣🦌

[@chrisc9997]

His reaction when the deer ejected the scene is too funny!!

[@dianacrane857]

You go Houston 💙

[@rhondabritt972]

Poor Houston. Next time buddy. It happens to everyone some point and time. Hope ya'll have a wonderful evening. Love you guys.

[@sandyoklahomatransient8557]

Give Houston a big hug, and tell him he did good, and don't get discourage. It happens to everyone, happened to my husband 3 years ago.

[@DrillerAA]

Man...I had high hope for the kids this year. You could see the excitement in Houston's face prior to the shot but he will have his day. Great video.

[@wranther]

Well now there young Mr Houston, the deer hunt can be a time of great excitement no matter the time of the year. Soon if allowed down your way you could be back in the field during the full deer season. Perhaps if your schedule allows from time to time, find a quiet place out in your door yard or maybe even if your Daniel isnt too busy, go and sit in your little cubby hut. Just imagine the moments as your saw the deer and decided you wanted the deer. Just hold your thoughts in your mind and allow your breathing to deepen and soften. That is something your Daniel may know about to help you along with. Maybe even your sister Tent Slayer could help or even join in too. Stay Safe and Be Patient in the field...

[@deejaysavoie7158]

Poor lil guy he tryed his best and I see he was upset but he will get there one day u have an amazing family god bless u all

[@earlshaner4441]

Hi from Syracuse NY brother and thank you for sharing your thoughts and adventures and your family and everyone else and your farm

[@davewallace.8303]

Awwww that’s just heartbreaking… I feel SO bad for Houston, but that’s hunting. It happens to ALL of us!

[@garyadamovich7764]

I know your pain Houston, I've hunted for 50 years. It happens. We, as hunters, do our best to be good marksman & caretakers of what God has given us. Keep up the good work, practicing & target shooting & getting out in the woods. Your dad is a great example for you. Glad that you kept looking for that deer. That is all a good hunter can do.

[@williammatthews2948]

Hang in there Houston. It's happened to all of us. You've got my respect.

[@lizlissiemac4959]

You are an outstanding dad, you're giving the best gift a parent can give their child and that is your time. Lost my dad a little girl and have always felt cheated. I'd give anything to have him in my life again. God Bless you...and tell Houston, he did a great job.

[@bridgettcovell3267]

That buck should be named Lucky! Great job to the kids for trying. Many people aren't even going out in the morning.

[@basshunter4144]

God job dad i know its hard theres always next year . its a learning curve the up's and down . God bless be safe out there.

[@DKFamilyadventures]

Daniel I took my son on his first ever deer hunt this year. I did my best to film his hunt so we can remember it. He was unsuccessful this youth season. He took a shot and missed a buck of a lifetime. It was amazing to see how he responded. Similar to Huston my son was banging his head on a tree all afternoon.

[@stephanieromines4934]

Bless his heart! I love watching them learning & enjoying hunting, fishing and just outdoor life! They’ve got more opportunities coming soon & I bet the both get a good size buck! Can’t wait to see the next video.

[@littleredhen]

Better luck next time Huston. It happens to the best of us like your father said mark this up as an experience, learn from it and you will be better prepared next time. I know it's hard to hear that being just a kid, but I have faith in you buddy and I look forward to seeing you hopefully bagging a nice one next year!👍🦌 God bless you and your family Houston 😇✝️🙏

[@glennrayner1922]

Heads up Houston and Emily I'm 56 years old and I've done the same thing just learn from mistakes you still got plenty of season left

[@bowman941]

12:19 “hoo hoo hoo” “gobble gobble gobble” man that made my skin crawl I’m so ready for spring turkey season.

[@denesemaxie7930]

Awe. Hugs to both of them. I know a bummer for sure but definitely lessons and stories for a lifetime. I’m certain they will get theirs in the next round for sure as they will be better prepared as is with each turn. Way to go and hugs for the enduring 🥰

[@coryblanchette8369]

Houston keep your head up and bucks are territorial and he will be back in that field and you will get your redemptions.

[@patsyguthrie8520]

You are teaching Huston and Emily what they need to know and that is what a good dad and teacher does this is an experience they will take with them

[@hectorcartagena2870]

I couldnt wait for this to drop. I was so excited for them to get a BIG buck. Big fan in Plant City, Florida.

[@oldben6086]

Nice job, Houston!

[@heatherwest2770]

Tell Houston heads up. These things happen to the best of us. It’s all part of the hunting process and learning. Nothing to feel bad about. You’ll get there. Just keep your head up, push forward and use it as a learning opportunity. Good luck to you all this season!❤️

[@lindawall6504]

Houston, you did your best. Each season you'll learn something new. Life Lessons are sure hard on the heart. Next time you two!

Huston don't be embarrassed dude this stuff happens. I'm in my 50's and I've made some bad shots that I thought were perfect and I took a lot of flack from people but I kept going, so make sure you do to. Can't wait to see the next one you put on the ground. Great video

[@sharonminnis4092]

So fun, even without a kill. Next time kids! I enjoyed hunting with my Dad and brother and cousins, makes great memories.

[@chelseyburt5902]

[@jarodmcmichael9944]

Houston is a very confident and talented young man. He shoots better than many grown men and I am proud of him. I love the Father/Son/Daughter relationship shown here every video. As a father myself, I am always touched!!!

[@katherineallen9060]

Not only are you seeing deer but also other wildlife! Neat and the kids are really involved!😃

[@lindavonh131]

It’s about having fun. I know your kids are competitive but remember to have fun.

[@joellasummers715]

Love going out in the woods to hunt, where I live we hunt by driving through the dirts in the woods, it was my favorite thing to do growing, shot a few rifles in my life time but never have I shot my own animal before!!! Houston and Emma lee are so lucky to be able to shoot down their own deer!!! We hunted moose more so deer but I’ve always wanted to be able to shoot the moose myself! Now my dad is teaching my 6 year old nephew to hunt and it makes me super proud to have been able to learn so young and now my nephew is learning!!! And I’m Super proud of Houston for sharing his youth rifle story even though there wasn’t success!!! But that’s just how it is sometimes! He will get it next time ❤️ love ya little buddy, you got this Houston!

[@lwink29]

I live in Bella Vista Arkansas and have a 3 legged deer that comes for corn almost every night. She will stand out back until we come give her corn. We were surprised this spring with her showing up with a baby. She would leave it in our back yard when she would go off. I have never been hunting but have always lived where it was a huge sport. I’m sorry Houston did not get the buck but as you said it’s a good life lesson that just because you want something it doesn’t always happen. I love your videos and watch everyday.

[@prestonrussell605]

Wishing y’all better luck in the future! Both kids did a good job, very proud of them! Dad, great job as well!

[@3doggymom]

Learning experience for sure. The kid are awesome. Good job Daniel and DJ!!

[@leann4925]

Daniel Emmalee and Houston are very lucky to have you as a Dad. Now my Dad did fish but never taught nothing. All the rest of the men in my family none of them hunted or anything like that. So they are so Blessed. Thank you as loved this even though Houston didn't get the deer. At least he will have the opportunity to go again. Love y'all

[@rioncitylife1917]

good hunting Houston you'll get one next year, did great man hi everybody

[@LindaPoorman]

Maybe all the deer luck went to Dutch's place. Great job Houston, stuff happens, and you were so excited, but you still have time this season. You just have to wait a bit. Good time to work on practicing for when you can bow hunt. Some years are good, some are bad. Love you all, thank you for sharing
