"He's my camping buddy". Sweeter words Zach... ❤️

Great duck video 👍 I love your music playing it sounds so PEACEFUL. It makes video better 🎶 🎵.

[@samkimball4909]

Thanks for your video Zack, really enjoyed watching. Nice to see your looking after the old boy pal, it’s really refreshing. Look forward to the next video. Sam Liverpool England

[@R.AudioElectronics]

Zack your best video yet. I love your family tradition , how your dad keeps a lantern for his granpa and you spending time with yours is special. I’m granpa age but don’t have grand kids yet but you all are doing it right. It’s nice to share these memories with you all

[@watcherend]

The backgrouind music was a nice touch

[@williamumbach592]

Well done. Like the background music

[@kevinhoward8611]

Hey Zach, another great video.

[@debramorris7646]

Zach I love the relationship you have with Grandpa! You're a good guy! BTW I like the music...but not while you're talking!

[@djor316]

Zach I am so proud of you for helping your GranPa and your Dad.Cherish these memories hon. Not gonna be able to make too many more. Time is flying by. Be safe and God Bless.

[@mikeburrows3416]

Enjoy the fun videos Thank you

[@viktoriaelisabethrotenbour8285]

I envy you Zach, getting to spend time with your grandpa. I lost mine in 1982. And I lost my grandma in 1980. I still miss both of them, all these years later. Treasure them and all the time you get to spend with your family.

[@mikehughes4969]

I was thinking the same thing myself. Mine passed before I was five years old. I can't remember his voice, or his laugh. But I can remember him sitting by my bed telling me stories. I can remember sitting in his lap as he drove, or how he'd hoist me on the roof of the car to watch the long freight trains go by. My grandmother passed when I was a teenager and I remember her vividly. She was a real character. She had a self described screw loose and the times I spent with her were some of the happiest of my life. Much love.

[@davidgriffin14]

Amen to that. Spend more time with all of your loved ones. I have lost all of relatives except one sister.

[@jdob1983]

Zachary i envy you being able to spend time with your grandpap and your dad. Awesome to watch

[@JLei1987]

This was one of the best videos you’ve all done in awhile. All the videos are awesome and the rain sucked but this was just about family spending time together. It’s just super awesome to see. Glad to see ones like this when all the family is spending time together.

[@bobkd5fjd823]

As a Grandpa I know how special it is to be able to make 1 more year in the woods with the Grandkids. My is off to you Zack and to you Sarah for spending good quality time with your Grandpa. I guarantee he will treasure that weekend and know you and Sarah will treasure the time well spent with him. He is soooo fortunate to have Grandkids that are willing to do this with him. And Zack you brought a tear to my eyes when you said “it just wouldn’t feel like duck weekend without Grandpa”. Way to go young kiddos!!!

[@smiley9872]

I too appreciate the story here! But remember family will always adore you, even though they don't share the same interests, the are family/blood nevertheless. It may take a few years after you are gone, but they will remember times that you may have forgotten or not paid attention to. Blessings to you and yours!

I am not a hunter, but going on trips like this with family seems so fun!

I don't know why but seeing Joe walk up to that camp just made me so happy. Nice video. Totally enjoyed it. Zach looks just like his Dad and is hard-working and talented like him, also.

The good memories you have captured all these years with your grandpa and family are the best treasure a human can have. Many more memories to you all!!!!

[@kimberlyshalaby1134]

Thank you for showing us your Ducks & telling us the names. So glad you got to set up camp with Grampa. That is a very neat log cabin tent he has! Good to see Sarah made it up to camp. Nice to see your Father visit too. Very nice video Zach.

[@rangerjim]

Zach when mentioned "without grandpa it just wasn't camp". Reminds me of my uncle and dad back in day at deer hunting camp. Brought a tear to my eye. Your so right about your grandpa. Hes a big part of those special memories. Thanks for taking us along and bringing back some wonderful memories for me.

[@johnzellers495]

I had wonderful Grandparents growing up but they weren't involved in anything I enjoyed doing. So I don't have memories of doing much together. I'm now 64 with a 1 year old grandson and I'm bound and determined to be involved in the things he'll enjoy. I love to camp, hunt, fish, BBQ, and do Cowboy Style Cooking. I hope if health allows to be able to share this stuff with him.

[@parnellbeth]

Dang, your grandpa is tougher than a pine knot..... all that he has been through and getting around so well!

[@allorenz6591]

Zach, thank you so much for letting your Grampa tell his stories to all of us. He is such a jewel for your family. 😎❤❗

[@TennesseeMtnMan]

You did an awesome job Zach !!! Love the time you spend with grandpa. Love hearing his stories 👍.

[@midwestproductreviews7360]

Looks like everyone enjoyed themselves. I enjoy watching these videos you and dad put up with your grandpa in them. Gives us a chance to get to know him better. Looking forward to you dads video of duck camp, and the up coming deer season videos.

[@JT-py9lv]

Sorry, but the music is VERY distracting....

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

The music in the video was a edit mistake, it was not supposed to be in that part.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

The music in the beginning was a edit mix up, enjoy the video!

[@tdvan80]

I enjoyed it.

[@docholliday3150]

Thanks for letting us know. I thought something was wrong with my computer LOL. Restarted vid about 3 times. Great video, you grandfather is No. 1.

[@ArtGardenFoodExpressions]

The ending felt a little sad hearing Zach talk about the Camp being empty without his grandpa. Hearing that music and knowing that made me wanna cry. He loves his Grandpa and his the whole family. It was nice seeing Sarah. Luv you all. God Bless.

[@barnzs98]

Background music could have been left out. Other than that great video Zach.!

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

It was supposed to only be at the end but I guess in the edit it made it through.

[@robertmccullough4822]

I envy you Zack, I really do. You have your Grampa and your Dad, and are still building memories. Hang on to those memories and Cherish them and document them any way you can. I have lost all of my male role models, and I am using their lessons now, as now it's my time to set the example. I know your Grampa and your Dad have to be proud of the Man you have become. Without trying to sound condescending... Well done young man, Well done indeed ! Love the content, the passion, and the effort you put into your channel. May you be successful in your life. Peace!

Greetings from Northeast Ohio. Thanks for taking us along. I love your Grandpa’s stories. You’re a fine young man Zack. I love to hear Sarah’s laugh.

[@elmermason9685]

Zach, always cherish the times you spend with your Grandpa because you never know when you will not be able to do that anymore. My Grandpa's passed away when I was 5 years old. Wish I could have spent more years with them. I'm sure you make your Grandpa proud of you. Thanks for sharing duck camp with us. Take care buddy.

Great times with your grandpa! Enjoy the moments, which I think you do. He needs to just let you cook for him too. Thanks for the video!

[@kerrymccluskie]

Hi zack, nice video content but your music audio levels are too high, and you went a bit overboard on the transitions between clips

[@DJDaddy-O]

Zach, the editing and music (especially at the end) are a great touch. I can tell you genuinely treasure these times with Grandpa and your dad and Sara. One day you'll be telling your own stories to your grandchildren. You're a good guy Zach.

I love the interaction between you and your Grandpa!

[@rebekahwells3737]

Awwww how sweet saying it’s not camp without grandpa! Cherish these memories. My family talks about when my dads lawn chair broke while camping! He was sleeping and it smashed his cowboy hat that was probably 50 years old. He had it under the chair.

Zach , Do you still have the Popup trailer you purchased a couple of years ago? Wouldn’t that be nice to have on those rainy days at duck camp.

You know you can get luci lights that solar charge and they last like ten hours on a charge . Check out Walmart in the camping section .

[@danielvrana9444]

You need to keep grandpa for an extra day and call it stories that spun!!! He won’t be there forever and you should make a point to get them on a dvd. We did the same to my grandpa and soon it will be my dads time to have the stage. Just one persons take on it. Zach it won’t feel like duck camp without him and I don’t really know him. He will be missed bye the viewers I hope he knows that. Thanks

You should buy yourself another easy up canopy to put over top of your tent and keep it as low as you can to help keep your tent dry when it rains. Walmart runs them really cheap on sale.

question so does grandpa not hunt? and why does he leave early. i assume its friday sat leave sunday? just curious.

Thursday through Sunday, he hunts out in the bay on a point that he can walk to. Leaves early Sunday because he always has.

Zach another great video!! I totally understand what you were talking about camp and when your grandfather leaves. Sort of like our camp with my father-in-law, of course, my father-in-law passed away in 2013, but camp just doesn't seem the same without him being there. Jerod got to hunt a few years with is paw-paw and I am so glad that he had the chance to do that. If you have seen our videos of deer camp, you know we try to keep that tradition going that he started. Thanks for taking us along with you on your duck camp. Juddie - J & J TOA

I like the simplicity of your camp set up. I have told your dad a couple times that I think his is overkill for a couple night trip. LOL. To each his own..... Looked like you guys had a fun trip, and that is whole idea, right?

[@denwater7874]

I LOVE the tradition. I love the family time. We have a similar yearly camping tradition in my family. To me it is a bigger deal than Thanksgiving, Christmas, new year, and Easter. Zach, when you said it out loud that when your grandpa leaves.... it's not the same... WOW that hit me hard because my grandpa left forever a few years back. You're right it's not the same, but it's up to us to keep it going! Your dad (love you Joe) is grandpa now. One day you'll be grandpa.... you gotta make it just as special for them as it was for you.

[@danieldeanmasterfinisher4715]

Idea time Zach🤔 🔨build yourself a small light weight 3 sided dog house style box for the generator Something easy to assemble and disassemble over and over again Use thin plywood and the 2 inch blue foam board for sound proofing Snug fit but it has to be able to breathe , use the open side for the exhaust then point that side away from camp You won’t need to put it so far away 🍻

I want grandpas tent!

[@cravenoutdoors4619]

Thank you for the video Zach. It’s so awesome you camping with your grandpa and your dad. Always cherish the times you have with your dad and your grandpa. It will just be a memory one day. I miss the camping and hunting trips with my dad. I would give anything to just have one more with my dad. Take care buddy thank you so much for the video. Be blessed Zach.

[@SWAMPHUNTER644]

I didn't notice a portable privy in your camp. We made one out of a 4'X5' wood frame to sit over a dug hole. We made a 3/4 " painted plywood seat with a chamfered hole cut into it. We stapled felt paper inside the seat into a funnel into the hole so no cleanup was required. Just bury the felt paper in the hole. We used clear plastic for a roof supported by three pieces of lathe and black plastic stapled around at the top and front and a separate piece for a door. We pounded in stakes on two sides to secure it. We used long machine and carriage bolts thru drilled holes to assemble. We numbered and labeled the pieces to make yearly assembly easier. It sure beat squatting in the woods in the rain and snow and cold. You could add a heater but we just didn't linger. A large empty coffee can kept critters from stealing the TP and a small bucket of hydrated lime kept odors to a minimum. LED lanterns were a nice touch for night trips. The frame would fit nicely in the bottom of a trailer. We used mostly 2x4s with a couple 2X6s and 2X8s. We mostly used scraps. It had to be sturdy because of wind and snow load but I think it could be designed to weigh less at least above the seat area. The frame could be preassembled at home if you had room on a trailer. I didn't check the internet for plans but they may exist.

[@davidgriffin14]

[@ruthiewrangler9864]

Good job with this video. I enjoyed the added music too. Nothing better than family spending time together. Thanks Zach

[@theoneandonlyowl3764]

You said something, Zach, that I felt and have known deeply. When you're grandpa leaves, whether it's for the time being or altogether. We never forget and feel their loss. I lost one of mine when I was only four, but I still remember so much of him, of when he lived. I know it sounds strange to many that I remember back that far, but I still have sharp memories of when I was a baby in the crib on the family farm and so many more. Treasure every moment, mate. You're so lucky that he's still with you. On a higher note. It was great that you got some ducks. I had an old mate, that I worked with, he'd bring me some smoked wild duck he'd shot and smoked himself, as well as marinated deer... such wonderful tastes, that I'll never taste again... probably. Old-mate is long gone now and me, too in-firmed to even attempt. Thanks for the video and keeping me wishing to be well enough to get out in the bush again.

[@bonniedugle1763]

Zach, build a wooden box to put over your generator. Put a thick layer of insulation inside, drill holes for airflow & you'll never hear it running. Nascar fans do this for courtesy because they have to camp side by side.

[@SWAMPHUNTER644]

I miss duck hunting from the 60's and 70's. I started hunting puddle ducks in the marsh near my home. After the Army I hunted diving ducks Christmas week in a harbor on Lake Ontario. Tough hunting from predawn to darkness. We would break ice to get across the harbor to a breakwall. Waves would come over the breakwall and immediately freeze on your gun and clothing.

[@davidthomas6462]

Zach I love your videos. Please work on your sound quality. I can’t hear some of your conversations. Keep it up.

[@scottcompton9542]

I have to say thank you sitting there watching this you are sharing your life with us means a lot you sitting around the campfire with your grandpa is fantastic little tough for me I have tears in my eyes.
