Opening Day for the Bunjies!

[@philiplang1361]

It's awesome to have a second generation crossbow hunter for more coverage and additional stories. The sound of that hornet, made me flinch through the phone.

[@CatzAzz]

I'm in New Hampshire and have family in Maryland. I might have to make a trip & do some crossbow whitetail hunting with my nephew who is an avid hunter. Congratulations to the both of you.

[@coreysemenuik2722]

Awesome video nice deer it was a good wait for the video after seeing your pics on Facebook congratulations on a good start to your deer season 😀

[@georgekeith7969]

What a great start. I know what Genevieve means. Just shot my Excal bulldog 330 this week getting ready for the statewide opener. Shooting new arrows, 2 inches shorter and about 500 gr. And even with different arrows the scope was dead on. These Excaliburs are so reliable. And that Twilight DLX scope is a keeper. Lol.

[@Artisanwoodworks73]

Just wait till y'all get down to Georgia! We've been invaded by JORO spiders this year! Thousands! Millions!!! Congratulations BOTH of y'all on super succesful hunts the day of arrival in Maryland. Looking forward to more. Thanks too for sharing your hunts.

[@billgalante1181]

[@Deathbybunjie]

More to come!

[@josephbenge8707]

Congratulations on your deer, lots of good eating there, also congrats on your new Job. Can't wait until October 01 here for our opening day.

[@joshblainer2652]

I gotta hand it to you rich you are a fantastic video editor. I went to MD first and still don't have my video done lol. Love the quality of your work, and congrats to both of you on your success!

[@terryb.1708]

Great job, to both of you. Very good start to the season. Good luck, here on out.

[@matthewwichtner2935]

Classic, European hornet or something! That's priceless! Lol 🤣. Good stuff, congrats all! Back here in Michigan, DNRs pitching a b****, for us to take much more does. Pretty hot for the opener this weekend. But we'll see. Most likely ain't taking anything but the big brute, I'm looking for. Too warm. Family coming in for the second week. Hope it cools down some. Anyways, nice job again! Special memories for sure. Keep that in your memory bank!

[@brob-zy8zi]

Nice work! I've been out poking around on the outskirts of a few areas of public that I will try to get into this fall. I can't recall ever finding big rub lines and dug up scrape lines in September before but I'm finding them in one spot right now. Plus, one huge community scrape. Biggest I've ever seen. Good luck the rest of this season! Hope you find time to get on a few this fall in PA!

[@randallflores-qr8cs]

Good stuff guys. Archery season opens in a couple days here in Oklahoma.

[@oldgrumpyhunter]

Just 2 coffees? At about 9:09 after Genevive's shot, the scene is from Bunjie's view, it looks like there are deer moving through the woods. Congratulations to both of you.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Yep!

[@mountainspider342]

GREAT JOB congratulations to both of you.

[@racingruss7263]

Opening day is Sunday here in Vermont..Great job to you both..All hail Bunjie.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Good luck!

[@williammunny9206]

Good luck you guys and fans!… I got to bloody my new crossbow ( 2yrs old) and a new bob dozier… now it’s turned off stupid hot… tried hunting one evening and still recovering from the heat.

[@BuckcreekTV]

Congrats guys! I am getting my crossbow out to prepare for the opening of the Alabama season on Oct. 15th

[@mariusbuciuman307]

Congrats on both of you

[@neabowhunters8107]

Congratulations!!!

[@gramps5157]

They got Bunjed. You guys are doing it like old pros now.

[@blacksrfm]

So ready for the videos been waiting,

[@weekender38]

CONGRATS to both of you on 3 perfect shots and the results speak for themselves. WELL DONE DBB's.

[@locksbog4270]

Congrats u 2, great stuff! 👍😃✌️🇺🇸💪🦌

[@rockmclaughlin3199]

Congratulations

[@mattvictor2998]

I been waiting for this 😊

[@hgaston01271]

Great video, congratulations

[@huntnfishnuts5880]

Great job on the Maryland hunt already, can’t complain about 3 deer on the first hunt.

[@robertstockton2036]

Super job Rich & Genevieve! Congrats on a successful hunt. Our hunting is harder here in SW Wisconsin due to CWD and no baiting. Waiting for temps to drop and the rut activity to start. Glad to see the OB back in action......

[@Deathbybunjie]

Good luck out there! Food for thought, you're hunting is harder out there because of government regulation. Both of the things that you described are only problems because of government regulation LOL

[@jaymiller286]

Congrats

[@efaciler2462]

Amazing!

[@rayphillips4514]

Congratulations to both of you on well placed shots! I thought that squirrel was going to break that limb. I'm sure he was over the weight limit by the looks of his fat belly! Excellent video as always! Well done! 🦌

[@Deathbybunjie]

😄😅🤣

[@daviduren993]

Great video!

[@srj263]

Nice work.

[@mwright6395]

Congratulations on a very successful hunt Heading out on Saturday to see if we can bring home a doe as well.

[@underdogoutdoors]

Very nice video, watched the whole thing! Those Swhackers are devestating.

[@johnparog5434]

Congrats to you two. As usual some big old holes appeared in them there deers 🤣😂. Good going 👍🏻👍🏻.

[@boomerrangerron]

Great shooting Rich & Genevieve! Congratulations on a very successful Maryland hunt! Great video as well, but then again nobody on KZbin does "B" roll better than the Wilsons!

[@markpack1111]

Hi Death by bunjie : good work I really appreciate your work: I learned a lot from you: I got a cow elk with my stock ex caliber GRZ2 cross bow,and Amazon bolts and muzzy knock offs.. it All works .. the Elk went down in sight , maby 70 yards ... Again thank you! Stay safe out there All three of you Thanks again Jack: high country of Colorado

[@pauloehmen1665]

Nice shots great eating 👍

[@robertwhite3752]

Many congratulations to you two. Talk about perfect shot placement….EXCELLENT! This is exactly what we strive for. All the practicing and getting to know our equipment pays off. So happy for the both of you. What day is the fan appreciation smoked tenderloin dinner again? I forget? 😂🤣🥩🍖🍽️

[@Deathbybunjie]

Invites are in the mail haha

[@TheBlazingPepper]

Congratulations on a great first day out! Ohio opens up this Saturday. Hopefully I'll get a shot. I am on limited time myself this year.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Good luck!

[@talon769]

NOT MURDER HORNETS!!!! LOL!! Congrats to both of you!

[@Deathbybunjie]

😄😅

[@ThirdDayOutdoors]

Awesome

[@Mike-cc2eu]

Congratulations to you both you make look so easy crossbow hunting starts this Saturday morning and I will be out there can’t wait hopefully a nice deer will come by my blind

[@Deathbybunjie]

We got lucky this year for sure!

[@SirSloop1919]

I'm loving the Burris Oracle X on my Mission Sub-1, new for me this season...thanks for the recommendation! Started off the season with three hunts this weekend, taking home one doe per trip!!

[@SirSloop1919]

Check out some cut on contact broadheads instead of mechanicals. I shot mechanicals for years and just considered them a one and done. Never sharpened them, just grabbed a pack and let it rip. They seemed "kinda sharp". I'm now shooting some heavy single bevels this year that I took down to 2000 grit sandpaper on a KME sharpener, strop finished. Never had such a lethal combo with absolutely mirror finish, razor sharp, bulletproof head guided by that oracle x. I had mixed results with mechanicals. Some hunts went like your hunt here with great blood and short tracks. Some went bad where I had to track for hundreds of yards and lost the deer. I'd say more than 50% of the time the blades were mangled. Think about it... I'm never going back!

[@jimcarriekarker8399]

Congrats to the both of you on starting off the year with some great success. Glad to see everything is back up and running with the Oracle. I purchased one and it is arriving today. I am a little skeptical given your issues but I plan on hunting more from the ground this year and the lack of movement ranging will help and as the deer moves I don't need to verify yardage. Another excellent video production! Keep them bugs in Maryland!

[@Deathbybunjie]

Good luck with that scope, it can give you headaches but totally worth working through it in my opinion. It is the perfect balance of technology and simplicity, providing exactly what we need out there in my opinion.

[@jimcarriekarker8399]

Sighted in with no issues!! OMG what a game changer being able to stay focused on your target while ranging. Well no issues is a little understated. I did lose 2 arrows going low. Had to video tape the 2nd one to see where it was going. That was a10 yds. The good earth has absorbed 2 Ten Point arrows. @@Deathbybunjie

[@hopewright228]

Way to go awesome

[@joshuaspaeth4570]

Congratulations you two!

[@undertheradar9295]

Congratulations on winning the nomination Richard! Great job ( I just found out).

[@Deathbybunjie]

Thank you!

[@frederickbierweiler8020]

I like the green i feel i see and follow the bold better

[@rickpasour565]

Thanks for another great video and more information on the shwacker broadheads. It looked like they did great on the deer you both killed there in Maryland. Congratulations on getting your deer together. 😁😁

[@lungbustercrnvr1384]

Way to FILL da FREEZER ya'all! Great shootin, Rich & Gen! God Bless ya'all 🙏😇🦌👊😎

[@JASONBECKFISHING]

Congrats guys, I to tag my first Jersey doe with the crossbow the other night.

[@Deathbybunjie]

That's great congratulations to you too!

[@marktate4466]

I think I am going to try the Swhackers those deer were gore city!!

[@shane3878]

Congrats! My arrow didn't go where I was aiming 2nd day of season. Flew right under a 10 point from a blind @ 30 yds. Going back to tried and true Swhackers.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Yep you still need to sight in with those Mechanicals but they are a lot easier and more reliable in my opinion.

[@shane3878]

@@Deathbybunjie I did. The Truglos don't have practice heads. Heck, I ruined 3 bolts and a broadhead sighting them in. No problems during sight in. Came back in and set up a target @ 30. 1st shot same arrow arrow was pretty much dead on. 2nd shot same arrow was 8" low. 3rd shot 7" low. Going to have to chalk it up to the AXE405 being too fast for Truglo. 1st shot w/ heavier Swhacker was quite high.

[@CamaroZ28Nut3]

9 Days till opening day here. October 7th. The wait is killing me.

[@daytondugnolle1919]

Yeah since I thing with me I'm fixing to start my new job on Monday of October so I'll only be able to hunt on the weekends but hopefully I get a deer this year

[@Deathbybunjie]

That's great, good luck to both of us

[@dualthreatoutdoors]

Awesome hunts guys! When should we expect to see Bunjie 3.0 out?

[@Deathbybunjie]

Soon soon soon

[@rogerw5547]

Enjoy your videos! Could you put something on your arrows to help the vanes stay on, like clear finger nail polish?I used wraps on my carbon arrows for my vertical bow. Maybe tape and spray clear poly on the fletch area.

[@Deathbybunjie]

I just need to do a better glue job is all, I'm pretty sure. I have trouble seeing how much glue I put on there, sometimes. Need more light in the basement!

[@IRishbuck58]

Great video good shooting

[@michaelcurtis8114]

Congratulations on all that delicious meat. I've also had problems with lighted nocks. "Nocturnal, Launch Pad" lighted nocks to be exact. After a few shots they crack on the button that pushes in to turn them and they turn off when they pass through the deer. Now I use the cheap ones from Amazon and I have to say the quality of them are waaay better. And they stay on because the off switch is internal. They are half the price for double the amount.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Lumenoks 10% using coupon code BUNJIE on their website, I really like those

[@Kurtdog63]

I shot two in one sit years ago with my old Jennings Devastator. I shot one and it bedded down right in front of me. The other two deer walked off. The first deer was a liver shot. A few minutes went by and the deer expired right there about 20 yards from my tree and the other two deer came back, but only one left. The second deer was a double lung and heart shot, went 40 yards and crashed in sight. I was shooting a 2219 arrow and tiny fixed blade broadhead, a Bear Bruin Lite if I recall, with a 1 inch cut. I think the blades were .020 thickness carbon steel. The Devastator I bought in 1986, actually shot extremely fast back then for the day, about 250 fps at 125 pound pull and man was it LOUD. They tried to duck the string, EVERYTIME.

[@Deathbybunjie]

That is one classic crossbow!

[@Kurtdog63]

It’s one of the first compound crossbows that I’m aware of

[@justinbressler7773]

Rich, you look good. You’ve lost some weight. Good luck with the rest of the season.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Thank you muchly, good luck out there to you too

[@rongarofalo3482]

Sometimes when an arrow cuts through a rib it can leave a very sharp edge and slice a vane off as it's going through just like a razor.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Good point, I've had my hands cut on Sharp ribs if you're not careful so it could certainly peel off a vane I'm betting

[@davez3887]

I miss tho old intro! Periodically go back to it!

[@gedwardmars8262]

Great video ... But it made me wanting a more complete explanation of why you didn't use your new super Swat. 10 years ago I purchased 2 Matrix 355s and since then 3 more new Excalibur Micro series crossbows. I get high from the latest/greatest but the thrill is temporary and I return to the tried and true ... I'm not totally sure why. In your case I think you would want a few more fps ... all of mine are in the 340 to 360 range. But the 355 didn't come with ADF.

[@Deathbybunjie]

I can't go a year without hunting with The OB. That doesn't mean I'm going to use it for the rest of the season though LOL

[@robertfrancisco1193]

go get them BUNJIES!!!!!!1

[@donwilson350]

That's kind of too bad Rick I wanted to see what you thought about your new crossbow I can't believe you didn't use your new crossbow in Maryland maybe you use it in the next video

[@Deathbybunjie]

Patience 😆

[@danshort10]

Is that hunt through a guide or is it just a place you frequent? That part of Maryland is gorgeous

[@Deathbybunjie]

Yep guide but really a friend of mine after a decade

[@cherokee8647]

Congratulations on your success! Is the area in Maryland public land or do you have to pay to go on someone land? I'm in Arizona and its open to public here.

[@Deathbybunjie]

I have a guide down there,all private

[@user-yp8zr3hq6k]

Good job. What size Swhackers? I arrowed a nice doe last week and had dark red blood blood all over the arrow and right at the shot but never found her. Was really bummed but trying to learn from it and move on!

[@Deathbybunjie]

3-in swackers, and good luck out there

[@rhondaandrew1764]

I bet the spiders could pack the deer off. Them bugs are huge 😮. Great job on your hunt 😂

[@Deathbybunjie]

😆😅

[@jeffhays1968]

Nothing yet ! Damn you. LOL

[@bradbo3]

That first doe jumped the string early...wow....And I was thinking at first Genevieve didnt have a lighted nock....she needs to listen to Dad. The Burt Coyote ones are the brightest ones ive EVER seen....I bought some for my crossbow and my compound bow. Just dont look directly at them or you burn your retinas.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Lol I hear that!

[@bigdaddy3450]

Look at those 3 inch Swhackers!! Great shooting Rich and Genevive. Hey Rich, I know your hooked on the 3 inch Swhacker but is there any chance you might do a review with the Swhacker 231? It's a 2 ¼ inch 125 grain. The 231 gets no love on KZbin. There is literally 0 videos on the 231. Maybe you could put it on Bungie 4??? Haha. Love the videos!

[@Deathbybunjie]

No videos huh? Well, would the energy in these crossbows I really think the three inches a good idea. But that is food for thought!

[@Kurtdog63]

Hee hee. Even the squirrel dropped at the string. Ha.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Lol truth!

[@kevindietiker7887]

Congratulations on your hunt. I would like your opinion on killer instinct crossbows that are under $500 or just above that price. There are quite a few people that have broken or cracked their bow limbs. Also saying not very good customer service. Would you still buy one? I see the positive reviews but I don't know.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Vital x shot great 👍 and with rebates you can get x1 right now under 700! Yes, so far 💯 I'd buy another

[@dennisrobinson753]

Are you going to do another meat and great I would like to try to be there

[@Deathbybunjie]

At some point, yes, stay tuned
