Bud I left SA back in 89 and watching these diaries makes me seriously home sick. I’ve hunted dassie and the grey menace from horseback on the farm with a .22, slept under the stars and enjoyed watching the fireflies. It’s great to watch and hear the accent. Cheers Boetie.

Great video Matt. I always enjoy watching the Oxwagon series, it is a beautiful place and a quaint setting for the chillaxing part of the experience. So happy that you and Nicole have that time together. Hopefully she will shoot someday. Thanks for your efforts and hospitality. Be blessed with all that you need.

I've been watching and enjoying the Oxwagon Diaries videos since the very first one. I think I can sum up the appeal of this series in a single sentence. It's always so much more than just the hunting. I can't think of any other series of videos that I can watch and almost feel like I'm there. It's so relaxing. I would love to go there one day.

Matt, I’ve watched all your videos several times. You have influenced my first air gun purchase a Forest Green FX Crown .22 back in September 2017. I met you at the 2017 EBR here in Phoenix. I am seriously considering buying an Impact M3 in .35 from Utah Airguns, again because of the knowledge and understanding of airgun ballistics that you have shared. I have enjoyed watching you grow up, you are a good man Matt and I am grateful for all I have learned from you. Hopefully I will see you at EBR although I am full aware that Arizona no longer seems to be an FX friendly community. Maybe I will need to travel to Utah to see you. Oh congratulations on your marriage to Nicole. Would love to see you in more videos if you are up for it Nicole. Matt Oxwagon Diaries is the best hunting series on the internet.
