THE TENT. Deer Hunting 2017. Second Weekend. Cold!

[@jamiegratton9748]

As always, another great video Joe!! I just wanted to say, as a safety thing...use caution vacuuming up the ash and coals from the stove. I am a firefighter and have been to a few fires over the years where folks have sucked up a hot coal and it burnt the vacuum up and unfortunately one time their house. I along with all your followers and yourself would be devastated if anything happens to the tent!! This is by far my favorite channel on KZbin or TV!! Take care.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Thank you Jamie. I did put my hand on them to make sure they were cold before I started the video camera. I appreciate your concern.

[@iceman81179]

Finally a cover for the grill. Lol.. Good for you. Thank you for your vids. They are my therapy. Been watching for 3 years now

[@MrEye4get]

I could watch you feeding the birds all day! They save the M&Ms for you! Love your lifestyle! Lucky man!

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

I have a longer video of them eating out of my hand on my other channel called Northern Seclusion. Here is the link. Thank you. kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2jFYX-HlMueerM

[@danjennings6817]

One of your best yet! As a hunter myself I loved the feeding of the birds. Hope you get back to the tent early this week. Thanks Joe

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

I am up here right now Dan as I reply to you. Thank you.

[@growingforbroke1072]

Yes !!! I find you every fall/ winter for these awesome cold weather, in the tent videos. Longtime subscriber. First time commenting. You inspired me to do a Iowa crawdad boil this summer. My family thought it was awesome !! Greetings from SE Iowa. Keep up loading and I will keep watching !!

[@tech2480]

I never get tired of watching your videos Joe...thank you!

[@carlmic7]

Amazing! I remember when yo had battery power, A generator and now power. Love to see you bring the wood in, I do it all the time! No onemakes the lifestyle videos like you! Keep em coming!

[@shanegiggie]

Was awesome seeing you feed those birds. Like the polka music as well another great production, thank you!

[@farm_in_themiddleofthewood3339]

Thanks for taking us along! Our opening day is quickly approaching. Our weather is not looking good for us either but we are still hopeful.

[@bobbyt4701]

Thanks for taking me along Joe that's cool How them little birds eat right out of your hand better luck next weekend

[@daleramage7389]

Ha Joe just wanted to wish you and your family a great Christmas and all the best in the new year .Thanks for all the videos keep them coming, really enjoy watching your adventures at the tent Dale

[@scottcompton9542]

I'd have to agree 10 minutes into the video already making my day absolutely love watching the show. Hope you have good luck next week. Love to watch you butcher a deer

[@davidmccann1951]

Great new video, really enjoy your adventures, keep posting and be safe.

[@ninascarpa1460]

Absolutely gorgeous Winter Wonderland. Love your videos Joe.

[@treytonconrady8166]

Whitetail deer are known to feed 5 times a day so certain days they will literally be FORCED to move. I like your thinking of "I can't shoot them at home" because you are 100% right. If you get a string of cold days let's say 1-2 days of low teens and then it shoots up to mid 30's I would try for an all day sit because the deer(especially bucks) will be on there feet looking for food and the next hot doe! I love your videos they hit home because I live right here in Minnesota too. Keep up the great videos! -Treyton C

[@dwallich56]

As a new video suggestion - take us through, please, how you hunt a stand in 10 to -10 degree weather - layered clothing, heater options, hand and head protection, boot options, protection from wind chill. Here in Michigan, we understand hunting on 20 to 30 degree mornings, but your temperatures entail a whole different level of preparation and logistics. Thank you.

[@chrishayden9599]

Thanks for the new video Joe ,we don't do much dear hunting in Australia . The men usually go for Kangaroos.and wild pigs. Love the bird feeding . It must be so cold sitting in the stand go luck on your next attempt. Regards Chris

[@LVFFarmVlogs]

Joe, I'm sure those two birds were happy to run across you! You made two new friends! Hopefully next weekend will bring you better luck, this weekend when I am in my stand I'll be wishing you and all the other hunters luck!

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Thank you. Good luck.

[@erinkelly610]

Nice video Joe! Even though your not seeing much, just getting away out in the woods is the best feeling. This weekend is our deer opener in NY. Can’t wait to get some tree stand therapy lol

[@bigeazy3852]

Another great video!! Best of luck next weekend!! Excellent movie choice.

[@ANDRESARKISSIAN]

After making a cook like that with the frying Pan out love to see you show a step-by-step on how you clean that frying Pan being that it's cast iron with no plumbing thank you love your channel.

[@bamascot1]

You have made me a believer in Ford trucks. That truck is a tank.

[@shanegiggie]

William Nelson it should be look at it 2500 diesel i would hope its good in the snow

[@davidbabin387]

Great video, you guys have a very wonderful tent. Sorry no deer, but there is always the next trip. Thanks for the video.

[@singleman1986]

Man. That was the coolest darn thing, you sharing your trail mix with the birds from your glove. Much respect.

[@mpsully10]

You made my day!! I'm predicting you will get that 6 PT this weekend! You are the man Sir!!

[@hunter2790]

Should give the heater body suit a try one winter and see if you are more comfortable out there

[@wyomingslabjacking4190]

Hy Joe, i got my buck opening day in Pelican Rapids. but we did not get as much snow as you did.

[@Camstro80]

Cool love whiskey jacks used to feed them when i went snow mobiling in the mountains. Stop for lunch and they would land on my knee. Also known as grey jays

[@Nortekj]

Joe, Pay attention to what the deer is showing you, they will stay in cover when it is real cold or wind is blowing fairly hard, as the temps are a lot warmer due to no wind chill factor. When you seen the tracks walking in to get the camera, there were tracks everywhere, but as soon as you got to the clearing and also where your stand is located, no tracks! My suggestion is to have a climbing stand in the truck and with conditions as they are, use that stand to put in a tree close to where you see a lot of tracks. Deer will avoid areas that are void of cover when it's windy or really cold. I have been hunting deer for 60 years and have figured out to not hunt when weather is bad. Many times I have cursed the state game commission over when the dates they set for modern gun season, here in Kentucky it is always the second Saturday of November, and many times it is so warm that if you were lucky enough to harvest a deer, it would spoil before you could get it out of the field. Their excuse is that is when the Rut is happening, as a farm owner and I see deer every day, and I say it is PRE RUT and the time for the various bucks to establish their pecking order. I can give the game commission a good argument that the most actual rutting does not begin until around the third or fourth week in December. A deer's gestation period is approx. 4 months, so if the rut was as they say the beginning of Nov, that would make the birth to occur the beginning of March, still way too cold for fawns that new to survive while the mother is away feeding so that she can produce milk. It really doesn't warm up in this area until the last of April.

[@joefudala6012]

I have to give it to you Joe, sitting 4 hours in those temps is not easy to do. I go out in the cold but usually sit for a while then get up and walk a bit.

[@bobinmissouri]

hey Joe them birds were awesome watching them eat out of your hands that was so COOL I sure hope you get one our rifle season ends tue the 21st then doe season is Dec 1-3 then muzzle loading season is Dec 23rd through Jan 2nd i had a neighbor gave me a doe last night the 18th of Nov so i will have some deer I'm 60 years old and have never harvest a deer yet i still go out and try just getting out in the outdoors is great I really love your videos you put in a lot of time making them and i am glad that you do and i watch every add that's on them i hope it helps a little tell the next one stay safe tell your kid hi for me from bob in Missouri

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Thanks Bob. I am sure you saw the bird video I posted on the Northern Seclusion channel which is over 4 minutes of them eating out of my hand.

[@josephvo9313]

Yo Joe, love watching your tent videos. Alway relaxing and makes me want to get to the outdoors! Hope you get a deer! Also, get a bigger bucket for your ashes for the stove. LOL!

[@deanscufsa1542]

Love the videos, life is good in "Gods Country". Sitting in a deer stand, observing nature, that is what it is all about. Listening to Saturday morning polka on wely, does it get any better.

[@claudegobbo5327]

Hello, to be honest I hate those long videos, most of the time they are borrowing. But yours........can’t be long enough. Great great stuff. I appreciate those KZbin videos knowing that none of you is a professional and knowing how time consuming this is.

[@phrepster]

How about a few ice fishing videos this year Joe! With those temperatures up there, there has to be at least 6 inches I'd say? Good luck!! -!!

[@phrepster]

Oops.. "-Jake"

[@rightchoicehvac3620]

HOOK, LINE, AND SINKER!!! I LOVE THIS CHANNEL!!!

[@프뉴마하게오스]

I am a Korean viewer who is always listening to your videos. I have a question. There was always a lumbering agent that you used to use for firewood.What is the liquid used for wood? Alcohol ... Oil. Any other substance? I really love snowy tents. 멋진 텐트! 화이팅!

[@normanmallory2055]

Great video work.. Oh my gawd, -10 , doesn't seem a hunter could withstand temps like that, i'm not so sure i could unless i had one of the new electric heater hunting suits.. battery powered .. I gotta hand it to you , you are out there working at getting a deer.. You fix up some meals that look really tasty .. Johnny's Seasoning salt i ordered came, Hunters Blend, pretty good , it's funny none of the fellows i hunt with have even heard about it ... I hope you score..

[@cynthiaweathers6979]

Thank you for feeding the birds. Are they Pine Siskins? Cute little things. The Gods will reward you.

[@tinman678]

Cynthia Weathers They are Canadian Gray Jays, also known as " whiskey jacks "

[@mountainsidehomestead4994]

Joe, are you the bird whisperer now? Lol! That was cool, but I thought I saw that one bird eat a m&m! I think it was a blue one! Lol! Awesome video! Hang in there, and good luck!

[@zorrosish]

Those birds were awesome!..........Thank You for another episode!

[@easttexan2933]

that is some extreme hunting weather you guys endure. you guys are a lot tuffer than me lol

[@steveanderson5888]

Hey Joe that looked bitterly cold. At least you got two new friends to keep you company while you're out there. You'll get one this next week when you're out there again.

[@charlieh7869]

Joe I was wondering if you put new propane bottles on your lanterns when they run out or do you refill them. I just recently discovered a adapter from a large propane tank to the small ones and refill them yourself. I believe it will save me a few dollars in the long run.

[@dstevenpaisley]

Takes Hr to warm a camp in winter ! Not only do you have to warm camp you have to warm every thing in it.I take a propane salamander with me when it's real cold open all the doors for 20 min first .that warms it up 5deg than stoke wood stove two construction heaters mounted to ceiling and light salamander and leave it run for a hr.door open a crack.that gives it a good start to warming up

[@MsKestrela]

Great video! Love, love, love the footage of the birds eating out of your hand. Sorry, but I had a good giggle seeing the droopy drawers in your long johns. :P

[@ryanbeller543]

Hi Joe...I am 6'5" tall and was curious about the dimensions of your bunks. They are starting on our cabin in the morning so I will be starting the build of my bunks this weekend. Thanks in advance!

[@georgeyates8393]

I am a new subscriber and now I'm hooked, spent a whole afternoon checking out your older videos. I esp. liked the series on building your Dad's cabin. Your videos are some of the best on KZbin (not shaky and very well edited) can't wait to see the next one! I have 2 questions (that you have probably already answered) but here goes. What cameras do you use and why don't you build your own cabin? Thanks again for the great videos.

[@johnmccormick175]

Great video Joe as always,you sure make some delicious looking meals,good luck on your hunt...what a beautiful spot!

[@astroman71]

Yeah I love that stove, 2 or was it 3 days & u still have hot coals. Awesome 👍🏼

[@dstevenpaisley]

That 4 hr drive would do me in.My camps 20 min from my house ya I know big trip ! But I am fro Eastern canada don't have to go far to find wilderness luck that way

[@jpinator]

I love your editing! Thanks for another great video!

[@phatkid6811]

Be curious to see if those same birds keep coming back?! Outstanding way to break up the long stays in the stand.

[@arkywest2052]

Love the videos, very peaceful and helps me go to sleep at night, lol.

[@travis062003]

What kind of birds are that? It's great to see that they avoid the candies. Thank you for your videos, it's so relaxing to watch them. And good luck for your hunting!

[@crowtubecrozier2857]

I really enjoy your videos!! That camp is so cozy!

[@imari2305]

Joe you are one brave soul to go out in weather conditions like that; truly a die hard, dedicated hunter you are. Beautiful birds that kept you company; they seemed to like your trail mix lol. What are they called? I've never seen that species before. Hopefully on the final weekend you get a break, weather permitting.

[@jaybaglio9265]

Another great video buddy. Good luck next weekend. Can’t wait to see your next post.

[@WiltedSnausage207]

That shot with the 2 birds was great! I'm sure they were happy to see a nice meal with all that snow around!

[@WiltedSnausage207]

Just saw the next one of them later in the video, looks like you got a couple of pets now. Lol

[@alycatpublishing1164]

I do not hunt but, regardless, I find your videos fascinating. Keep `em coming.

[@jojesse42407]

Got super excited as soon as I saw the new video up! Thank you Joe!

[@gatrwrksMarshall]

Great video. Have you thought about doing a Thanksgiving video up at the tent?

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

I did Thanksgiving up here once. Now I go to Louisiana. My flight leaves next Wednesday and I will be down there 5 days.

[@gatrwrksMarshall]

Oh, ok

[@tabgtd]

Thanks for the vid, always great to enjoy the experience along with you all. Are you still shooting the Axis, wondered if you were happy with it?

[@Buckshot864]

Damn Joe. U got about as much luck as I do. Been a few years for me also. Honestly it's not about the kill anymore. I just love being at camp. Our gun opener is this wkend. Gonna spend a few days. Good luck brother!! Lou from N.Y.

[@MrPaulluma]

What a life, you got it made! I could live at the tent. Matter of fact maybe you should let me live their year round to maintain it free of charge. Lol

[@northernbadger4628]

Have you ever asked the DNR if you could clear out some shooting lane for your main stand? Also keep the videos coming my family and I love them.

[@garyc8208]

Temps and Winds make for some tough Deer Hunting Joe. Enjoyed the video. Made me appreciate the weather where I am. TX Gulf Coast.

[@HighVoltage1935]

Joe your 6F is our -14.4 here in Ontario wow to cold , Good Luck on the Hunt Joe ......

[@jeffgreen3276]

just absolutely spectacular joe! just loved the feeding the bird in your stand!

[@kimcushman1360]

Evening Joe, With there being a hot water tank on side if stove, do you use it, not seen you , but thought to ask.

[@jamesnielsen7381]

great video again Joe , joe any problem starting the diesel in the morning ? do you plug it in ? is that the 6.0 diesel ? last ? you happy with it ? Thanks Joe ,,,,Jim from MI

[@lutemule]

Joe do you ever use the side tank on the wood stove? My buddy has one on his sauna stove and it works great for hot water. And oh yes, we always had polka music at wedding dances in my day....

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

I have but once it all boils away its empty and always having hot water on demand is fine but only if you need hot water, otherwise its gone and you need to re heat more. Thats why I just heat it up in containers.

[@stayoutsideandexplore6280]

Nice video and hunt. I love your tent. Do you ever ice fish on that lake?

[@MFSergiu]

Thumbs up for feeding the little birdies! Amazingly cute!

[@bubbacrabb]

Man you guys really gotta work for your deer up there. I get disappointed when I just see 1 deer, lol. I watched a small buck chase around 9 does from my porch an hour ago letting my dog out. Hope you bag one of them elusive Minnesota bucks!

[@NWHomesteader]

Man that is so cool feeding the birds - better than the picture! It’s terrible you haven’t gotten a deer, and I cant get anyone to come shoot them at my house. If I knew how to clean one, I’d do it myself...

[@phil.paulastocks2276]

You need a purpose made "old time" ash bucket. Much wider. Would definitely save floor clean up and hot ash damage to the floor.

[@MsPrincesspaulina]

The video of the birds eating out of your hand is priceless!! I've had chipmunks and raccoons eat out of my hand but I don't have video of it.

[@MarvinLStohs]

Glad to see you cook with Cast Iron--Good Job !

[@larryboschen1287]

thanks...I enjoyed it.....the feeding of the bird was great! Glad it was a safe hunt.

[@stewartew]

Well Joe I see no deer, but man your meals sure do look good, keep up the eating, oops I mean hunting............. I think I would find a place to sit in that area where you seen all the tracks.

[@billr9097]

Joe I do not know if you are hunting national forest land/public but is it a place you could plant turnips or some type of food plot or improved vegetation?

[@slimpickings3763]

Hey Joe, I'm interested in what type of laptop you use and your video editing software. Not sure if you have mentioned that in past video coz I haven't found anything. Thanks for the awesome videos.

[@behindenemylines3361]

I got a name for that hamburger mix you did (first night): JoeandZach's Hunting Tent Hash! Just a thought - When I do that kind of stuff, I add a couple of fried eggs on top.

[@kevinr.lemieux9982]

Love your video's do u by chance have a video on how u build your tent are them Canadian jays that are eating out of your hand

[@taelshin]

my mom always cooked something like that up when ever we were feeling like something easy we called it goulash(spell check), tastes great!

[@elizabethshipman3947]

Joe that bird is absolutely amazing. ....beautiful

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

I am going to post a longer video on them eating out of my hands on my other channel Northern Seclusion. I may do that yet tonight. You will have to check it out. They are amazing.

[@gregp8ball]

if deer aint there you should get a few holes done on the lake put some tip ups and try get some luck nice video

[@MyREDTAIL]

Question ? Is your Tent , Troubled with a lot of Field Mice, Inside getting into everything, Our Hunting Cabin is troubled with them, This time of the year, when they are looking for a place to keep warm also.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

I do get some mice yes but I keep plenty of "snacks" for them to eat so once they eat it and leave they do not come back. lol.

[@tylercritelli5239]

what state is the tent love the video

[@stoutkm]

Thanks for posting Joe. Always enjoy your videos. How do you get cell phone service and internet when your at the tent? I know you are in a very remote area. Thanks again Joe!

[@crowtubecrozier2857]

Joe would be an awesome hunting buddy! Joe do you mind sharing your chuck roast recipe? I notice you enjoy chuck roast, and pork steaks alot.

[@A10TOES]

I really have enjoyed watching these video's, brings back so many good memories when I & my hub's use to head out to the woods to deer hunt, we didn't have deer stands but he's help me get into the tree, then head on down to another area, yeah I remember when I shot my first deer, cause I missed shooting due to 'the shakes', I was for warned, its real LOL

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

I am loving your comments and glad you are here. Please continue and thank you. Joe

[@A10TOES]

You're very welcomed, watching your other channel too down in Louisiana, love it too, you're one busy awesome man. Melissa is lucky gal.

[@supertug2005]

Joe! I have decided to enroll you in the potato of the month club! Keep up the great stuf! Look fwd to the next one.

[@liamryan3419]

It really is amazing how similar the area is to upstate New York

[@BS0821]

Liam Ryan yeah Im from upstate NY too... love watching this channel because it reminds me of my family and where I grew up lol

[@zimzim2160]

I was thinking the same thing. Reminds me of home.

[@erinkelly610]

Liam Ryan, where about in Upstate NY are you?

[@marcv9467]

Curious....did you ever think about planting berries and stuff near all of your stands? If they come there in the summer then maybe they might come there in the fall or winter days......Just an idea. I'm sure that those birds will be back :)

[@wpak4482]

That is one big bodied buck Joe. He would fill the freezer nicely!

[@richarddecker555]

Wpak4 has

[@ellenknell3249]

Joe, Do you get as much snow as Alaska does? I lived in AK for awhile and it was beautiful. You get use to the cold/snow but warm weather is nice too.
