Sweet video man. Looks like I shall be heading up to Fourth from North Creek this winter to do some ice fishing too, just like you. I went with my buddy once and it was a blast. Thanks for the further inspiration

[@BenOrvis]

Good luck, buddy!

[@teresahudon5768]

You were truly blessed and yes it was an appointed timing to meet Phil out there in the middle of nowhere. I’ve know him my whole life. I’d know that voice until I die. He is just who met, kind, gentle and full of ADK knowledge and always ready to teach. He is a gem and I’m so happy you three met each other. He’s the real deal.

I love your narration tells a great story!

[@BenOrvis]

Thanks, friend. I appreciate the kind words 😊

I hit a partridge in the same spot on my truck once too. Bullseye, right on the light. Couple inches either way and there would have been no damage...except to the bird.

[@BenOrvis]

😬 crazy birds…we took it home and ate it 😂

[@teresahudon5768]

PS. You should have him teach you how to cape a deer too.

Love it...spot on buddy, great story😊 The grouse was too funny as well... My love and appreciation of nature was passed down from my father and time spent✌

[@BenOrvis]

Man, what a great day it was! I think my son and I will be reliving that memory for quite awhile. 🙂

[@sergeiostapuk2337]

Thanks, friend!

What a fantastic video! Wonderful narration and the montage of scenes in the beginning, excellent 👍 Everyone should meet a “Phil” at least once in their life. As much as this was a memory for you, it’ll be a lifelong memory for your son. 🤣🤣that’s one way to get a Grouse 🤣🤣 New subbie, cheers 🍻

[@BenOrvis]

Thanks, partner 😊 I appreciate the sub; I’ll try to make sure you don’t regret it 😉 Thanks for the insightful comments, btw!

My favorite place on earth. Well done, our place is right by arrow head where you shot this.

[@BenOrvis]

You don’t need me to tell you this, but it’s a gorgeous piece of country! 😍

[@chuckhurd]

Looks like a great day. Is that what we would refer to as a holy bumper?

[@BenOrvis]
