I like seeing you clean the whole grouse, I never could understand why others would throw so much meat away. Growing up hunting dove with my dad, he would always pick the whole bird, mama would Cut them in half roll them in flour, brown them, then simmer until tender, that was a good meal. I have never breasted a dove in my life. I really enjoy your videos, yours has to be my favorite.

Well,no Deer this season, bummer.. Already for the winter trip. Got the trees removed, so you can get to the outhouse, that's a very good thing.. Fed the birds, which is awesome. But when I hear the vacuum, it's sad. Stay safe and have a great day.👍🤓👍🤓.Randy.

I saw a five inch snow forecast up there. Hope all is well for you. Did you ever think about getting thermal monocular to scan for deer out in the woods? I got one and it helps a lot in locating them in thicker brush and trees. Your dad has a beautiful place.

Been very lucky to not have a tree destroy the Tent after all these years

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

One got the outhouse a few days after this video finished. It did not ruin it but it did poke holes in the roof. Zach cut that tree up and will have that video coming shortly. Stay tuned.

Nice trip to the tent again Joe. sorry about no deer. they need to do something about the wolves. you and the family stay safe and warm.

[@thomase6787]

I think he’s stated wolves have been a big reason there’s very little deer around.

[@bradleyp2490]

Yeah wolves moved into the area and scared them off

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Wolves have eaten almost all of the deer. Hopefully now with the new administration coming in they will allow wolf hunts again like they did the last time this upcoming administration was in.

[@HabitualButtonPusher]

Hmmm I wonder if you ever considered a root cellar for the tent. I don’t know what the water table is there but a big enough insulated cooler just below the frost line with an insulated 2x4 top would keep cans about 40 degrees or so, definitely above freezing. That way you could keep all your canned goods there and keep the oil from freezing solid. Not like you don’t already have enough projects to do haha!

[@dennislarmore]

Howdy Joe, what's your favorite way of preparing Grouse? I'm not sure if I've seen how you cook it. I love your videos and especially the different ways you cook/grill Pork Steaks!

What about a master switch that would cutoff everything. I know it would be costly to install but a couple of high electrical bills would make it justifiable.

I’d love to see you season the stove top of the wood stove in the tent.

[@georgelahti6474]

[@CarolSchreffler]

Greetings from Northeast Ohio Bread isn’t bad for them per se. It just doesn’t give them any nutritional value. Bread is not going to keep them warm at night. That’s all.

[@loftymcdowell5789]

My deer camp went south too. Logging was the issue

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Logging will greatly help the area for deer in the coming years. It does not help when they are logging during the season though.

[@imzardoz]

Joe, have you asked the loggers if they have been seeing any deer? Figure you might have, but had to ask.

[@fuelfumes]

The big question..did Sara score a deer I have been hoping she would get one these 5 or 6 years

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

She did not.

If someone has property I could hunt on I would bring down a camper for second weekend and give it a try next year.

Joe I was just wondering if you have anything recorded of the making of your tent. I just went back to the beginning of your channel over 13 yrs ago and the tents already there. Even some photos would be cool. Still don’t know how the tent has survived so many years. You must have replace the outer canvas at some time and if you have, please send a message as to the video of it. I’ve been watching now for about 5 years. Always fun and interesting. 🤗

I have never had any trouble. Only once like Charlie mentioned, there was some guys breaking into a few places in the area. They were caught the next day and eventually prosecuted.
