Spring Trip 2024

[@jayskinner6321]

You, my friend are a true American. We are probably close in age, I’m 59, retired Firefighter/Paramedic for 30 Years and it’s channels like yours that give hope to all of us who remember how blessed we are. Enjoy this little gift as I appreciate all you do! My wife and I got us a place in a holler in the Great Smoky Mointains and I love sitting back here watching your vids. Keep doing what you do!

[@whiterook85]

Hello Jay, thank you very much appreciated! I have you by a few years, but we are close. I am proud of the United States, always will be, and honor those risk their lives to make us safe. Enjoy the time in the Smokeys, was down there on vacation a long time ago, reminded me of our area at the cabin. Of course being part of the Appalachian mountain range it should. Take care, stay safe, and thanks again!

[@robert-hg5jy]

Thanks again for bringing back memories of the times we had our pa camp. Semper Fi

[@whiterook85]

Our pleasure!

[@mikekratzer1710]

Happy 50th Gents! Good luck this season

[@ejdoeseverything]

Finally got a free evening to watch. Beautiful looking fishing spot. Thanks for the video!

[@whiterook85]

All good, I'm sure your keeping busy. The rain messed things up, but we still managed to have a lot of fun as always. Take care!

[@RayRay_G]

Great vid ! The clover plot is coming along very well, I hope you guys get a ton of undergrowth this year due to the timbering. The deer sign is a good indication of things to come. I’ll be waiting for the next one.

[@whiterook85]

It seems like this should be a good year. Deer and turkeys around all winter long which is a good sign. I should have asked the guy to make that field a little bigger, but it is bringing them in and holding them.

[@ronosmianski812]

Really enjoyed the video, Tom! It was great to see Shawn back at the cabin. The weather reminds me of many fishing trips to the mountains of downstate West Virginia. I know from his videos that Shawn has been in the general neck of the woods on some of his backpacking trips in the Spruce Knob/Seneca Creek and Dolly Sods regions. The weather of this video was the same as many of our fishing and backpacking trips. You all have a great cabin! I was always in a tent enjoying the many gully washers. Camp Cook and especially the Chairman were in fine form. Enjoy the new TV!

[@whiterook85]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. Was really good to get a chance to catch up with Shawn in person. He will be heading back East in early fall to get some DE and PA deer hunting in. Can't control the weather as they say, same for everyone, you just make the best of it. Thanks again and take care!

[@AR15JULES]

I wait for this every year. I do the same thing with some guys in McKean County! Looking forward to deer season.

[@whiterook85]

Hopefully you will get some better weather, but like us you will make the best of it. Deer season will be here before you know it. Take care!

[@Nicname-01]

Great video Tom. It was good to see Shawn back at the cabin. I sure hope all five of you can make it to deer camp this year. Clover looks good and im looking forward to see what it looks like when it starts to warm up. Thanks again. 👍

[@whiterook85]

Was a great time with everyone. Eric had another back operation that held him out, he should be there for deer camp. Clover is really active, wish it was about twice that big.

[@JMc.D]

17:13 RITPS! 😂 straight in there the Chairman

[@whiterook85]

Have to do it, think it is a requirement at this point.

[@thechairman7276]

Always John!!!!

Tom, Glad you where able to spend time at camp with your son and enjoy camp life and fishing.Clover patch is growing nicely keep at it.Nothing like spending time at the camp.Stay well everyone. Tell the next time.Your friends from The 3 Brothers Camp Pike County PA. Jack , Bob and Jeff Kester

[@IMDGEN]

We also hunt in Pike County, PA. I'm no longer a member but used to be a member of a club in Lords Valley. Shot my biggest deer (8 point) where 739 meets 209 in dingmans ferry in 2021. Been going since I was young, am now 29. Happy hunting!

[@bobkester5640]

@superfried9550 Good Morning Thank You For Reaching Out To Me.Been Hunting Pike County Since 1974.Biggest Buck I Shot Has Been A 11 Pointer In 2020.You Don't See To Many Deer But When You Do They Are Nice.Good Luck Hunting And Enjoy.Robert

[@whiterook85]

Thanks Bob, I did enjoy the time with Shawn. Like I said on the video, a phone call is good, but not like when we can get together. Will be keeping an eye on the clover, hopefully the deer will let it grow just a little more. Take care!

[@JMc.D]

Hey Rook I can’t wait to settle down and watch this video. I’m currently visiting the states in Orlando with my family on vacation from Ireland. Not a lot of down time on a trip like this but I’m looking forward to this it’s one of my favourite videos of the year.

[@whiterook85]

Have fun while you are here, I bet you're keeping busy. The video will be waiting for you when you have a few minutes. Take care!

[@waynebarnett7467]

I’ve fished pine creek many times with my father and grandfather near Galeton. I was surprised when you mentioned Gaines. We had great friends that lived there till they passed. Looks like you guys had a great time. That flatscreen is a nice touch. We used to have an old black and white TV rabbit ears wrapped with foil. Nothing but fuzz !! Thanks Tom. Wayne in Ohio.

[@whiterook85]

Thanks, Pine Creek is so nice up there, just wish it wasn't so high and muddy due to the rain, but next time! We normally watch CDs or one of the guys streams from his phone. We still have the original 6" B&W tv there as an ode to SR. Thanks and take care!

[@misterp158]

Tom, Good to see everyone again. Your clover is looking very well and at least it is loving that that miserable rain. Too bad about that but oh well, I will take camping and a bad day of fishing over almost anything.Thanks for sharing. take care.

[@whiterook85]

Thanks, the clover is getting hammered from the pictures the camera is now sending. You are right about a bad day fishing beats a good day at work every time. Take care!

[@josephruggieri7463]

It’s a good day when I get notified of a new video, a great one as always, some quality time with your son and the guys, look forward to more. Good luck in turkey season.

[@whiterook85]

Thanks 👍, was a good time with everyone, rain or no rain.

[@kishdogg1594]

Nice Big Screen for the Cabin. Hope everyone doing well!

[@whiterook85]

Was a nice addition for sure, takes a little more energy out of the solar, but all good. All good here, Eric had another back operation, so he missed it, but he is doing fine.

[@Doug-q1f]

Another great way to spend a rainy evening watching this video! Lots of good food as always , thanks as always for doing these !

[@whiterook85]

Glad you enjoyed it, didn't get too much fishing in, but at least we tried. May have to head back and see if I can catch a few. Take care!

[@petemulhollen9498]

Great video Tom ! All this rain really stinks , lol !! Will be heading back to our camp next weekend with the wife and daughter .

[@whiterook85]

It happens Pete, with Shawn flying out we were committed to that week even though the forecast didn't look good. Still had a great time with everyone. Enjoy your trip to camp, hopefully the weather will hold for you!

[@DCOutdoors]

Tom, it's always great seeing you back at camp. Love the father and son time before the crew rolled up. Hopefully, all the work you've done on the property will lend itself to a good deer population and a successful fall hunt. Happy birthday to the cats, too! Loved it. A great video. 👍

[@whiterook85]

Thank you very much Dan, hope things are staring to thaw out for you up there. We had a great time, fun, laughs, and good food. Whoopee pie and coffee hit the spot. Missy and Andrew said thanks, they are two characters.

[@thomasgordon489]

Rook- thanks as always for taking us along on the spring trip. Very glad your son could get away. The weather might have sucked but the 1:1 time with Syntax is priceless…it can’t be replicated! And I’m sure you two will cherish that. Hope all remains well with the property and any future work on your field out back. Be safe/healthy and I’m looking forward to the next trip.

[@whiterook85]

Thank you, great time with Shawn and the boys. We made the best of it. Property is coming along, hoping for a breakout year. Take care!

[@denpushkar714]

So sorry about the rain out...but you guys had fun and ate well! A fun video. Glad you guys got together to relax. Loved your update by the flag. Just found you on X.

[@whiterook85]

Thanks, the rain hurt the fishing but not the fun. We still had a great time, the guys haven't seen Shawn in a year. Had to post that update near the flag, wont be many like that in the future. I do try to keep it fun. X is a bit of a different story if you looked through some of my replies. Thanks again!

[@JeffreyBrunner-b1b]

It's very enjoyable to watch your videos I also have a camp up around waterville Pennsylvania would be very nice to meet you guys sometime

[@whiterook85]

Thanks Jeffery, we just try to have some fun up there and not take things too seriously. If you ever see us around, please some over and say hi.

[@ErichandZachsoutdoors]

Great to see you guys back together at the cabin. Sorry about the weather guys. Solo trip was great Tom! Property management is looking fantastic! Looking forward to the up coming videos! Have a great rest of the summer guys!

[@whiterook85]

Was a good time, rain or no rain. Things are working out, seems like a lot of new growth now. Weeds are down and normal browse is up. Looking for a good year.

[@mikemello6024]

Thanks for sharing, Tom. Always look forward to your videos at the cabin with guys. Hope all is well.

[@whiterook85]

Thanks, good time was had by all as the expression goes. More to come. Take care!

[@johnsabat3553]

Great video as always. I really enjoy watching your videos!!

[@whiterook85]

I appreciate that, thanks, good time despite the rain.

[@jefftheHawkEyeGuy]

Great video as always and that opening tune sets the pace. Rain, snow, boomers and harassing the hell out of each other and having a good time. Pure Camp Life. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait for the next video

[@whiterook85]

Was a good time, rain or no rain. We find a way to have some fun, new TV didn't hurt either.

[@jakewodowski5940]

Another awesome video! Love the content

[@whiterook85]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@johnandree2331]

As always another great cabin video Rook even if the weather didnt cooperate camp time away with family and friends is priceless looking forward to the next video safe travels my friend

[@whiterook85]

Well said, weather wasn't great, but still managed to have a good time. Unlike deer camp where we are split up all day, at least would could spend some time together. Thanks!

[@dianedevlin669]

Always good to see you and the crew at Go Time Camp,

[@whiterook85]

Thanks, good time was had. Rain messed up the fishing but not the fun.

[@Northeastdeerhunter]

Great video Rook! Great to see Shawn and the crew! Camp looks great, I just opened mine up in Maine. I saw that PA had some severe storms last week, being up on that mountain in the cabin must get shaky with those big storms. Stay safe guys.

[@whiterook85]

Thanks, was good to have Shawn come in for the trip. Hope all was well with your cabin when you cracked it open for the season. Thunder never sounds as loud as it does when we are up there. Take care!

[@brianogden9076]

Blessings to the crew

[@whiterook85]

Thank you, same to you and yours.

[@RoamingOutward]

It's always great to watch the spring trip..

[@whiterook85]

Thanks, we had a good time despite the weather. Was good to see the guys, and Shawn again.

[@just-one-moreoutdoors557]

Another great video and yes a really rainy season. I enjoyed the trips that were in turkey season but understand why you have changed that plan. Kinda saddens me as we get older and I look back at the past videos how things change but remain the same. I spend a lot of time at my cabin but the time spent with my son whether hunting or not is special and now gonna start fishing again so I can take my granddaughter. So on another note first time trying lucky buck and omg wow, the smell made me want to take a taste and I had to back off my cell cam pics as it was blowing up the camera. Thanks for that, next bear proofing the barrel feeder. Gifts for fifty, hmm might have to think about that.

[@whiterook85]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed. Yes the weather was pretty bad, but we had that time locked in so we couldn't change it when we saw the forecast. Made the best of it, and had a lot of laughs along the way. Lucky Buck is very good, as you've seen I have been using it for years. Just remember to come back and give it a half a bucket here and there. Take care!

[@jefftheHawkEyeGuy]

Your camp is awesome. Y'all give each other 💩, laugh, and make memories. As I said, your videos help me get back to my roots of deer camp. Each of you bring a variety of greatness. Whiterook85 and The Chairman, you rock. And the other 3 do too

[@whiterook85]

Glad you're enjoying, we have a lot of fun. We've known each other for a long time now, no hiding anything, it's all fair game.

[@ericbunksvintagesportsman6311]

LOVE this!!!! Awesome!!

[@whiterook85]

Thanks so much!!

[@fredhuffman7320]

Another cabin adventure. Thanks for taking us along as usual.

[@whiterook85]

Glad you enjoyed it, take care!

[@justinthacker9557]

Great to see Sean made it for the trip it was a nice surprise. It was nice to see everyone get together again and enjoy everyone's company. It's also nice to see you getting more attention out and about because of your videos on here. You and everybody else are just genuine people on here. Glad we could all make it to spring trip with you.

[@whiterook85]

Glad you enjoyed it, yes glad Shawn was able to fly in, made the trip since the weather was not great. Fun to meet people that recognize us from the videos, always nice to us. Thanks, and take care.

[@giannibenvenuto2253]

Awesome video always looking forward to you posting. And the chairman that was awesome impersonating sleepy Joe in the cabin. That's great

More to come! Chairman knows how to do it, wait on the "new" Fetterman impersonation.

[@justinswineford671]

Loved the video Thomas! Glad to see you all are doing well. Nice to see Shawn make an appearance, hopefully more often. Crappy weather doesn’t keep you guys away from a good time! Good luck with everything you have planted in the landing. Again good to see you guys, thanks for the entertaining video. Keep it up whiterook and crew!

[@whiterook85]

Thanks, was good to see Shawn again, and have some fun with the guys. We made the best of it, whoopee pies and coffee in the afternoon! We will be back again, take care.

[@whiterook85]

Thanks, we made the best of it. Had a lot of fun and laughs as always. Food was very good this trip, enjoyed it all. TV is pretty nice for sure. Will be back to see if I can catch a fish or two.

[@jimmykowalski7605]

You never disappoint,! thanks for taking us along, you had to make me think about my Douglas by showing George, lol, I never thought you were disengaged from things, but nice to hear a point of view, I think most outdoorsman, lean conservative anyway, its the nature of the beast , lol, thanks again, keep up the great work ! !

[@whiterook85]

Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks, George is still always on our minds. Had a lot of cats come and go, he was the best. Thanks again!

[@andrezejbudenski2411]

Great video Rook. Good times with the boyz. Keep the videos coming.

[@whiterook85]

Thanks! Will do!

[@galenbridges4328]

How you doing Rook, love watching your show guys, I noticed in the one episode you said you were having trouble keeping bucks on your land during deer season, you might want to look into getting a good food source for the does during the rut, if you keep the dogs in their you will keep the box in there, you guys are fun to watch keep up the good work tell the chairman that for his sake he better hope the Packers don't play the eagles soon lol are the eagles will go down,

[@whiterook85]

All good here, and there! Know what you mean about the food source, trying with the clover. We need that field out back tilled up and planted with something for fall, but don't think it is happening this year. Unfortunately the lay of the land prevents us from doing more than we already did, we make the best of it and have a great time. Take care!

Tom And crew. Thanks for the Great video as always. Well it was Bitter Sweet though. I am hoping to get to the cabin and open it up in the next few weeks. It will be tough. Me and my Cousin purchased the property in 1987 and Built our cabin in 1988. We Finally had a Home for Hunting and Recreation. Been hunting to together since I was 12 and I am now 61. Unfortunately My Cousin Passed away This past December after retiring just 3 months earlier in September. That Sucked. 38 years with one co. His Memorial Svc is this Saturday. Our Camps are very similar in many ways. Thank you I needed this!!! Keep the Videos Coming!!! 👍👍✌✌

[@whiterook85]

Thank you very much, good time whatever the weather throws at us. Sorry to hear about your cousin, sounds very similar to Sr and myself though we was a bit older than me. It will be hard the first time times, then on other occasions, but you will get through it. Hopefully you have another relative or friend that you can go with and relive some of those special memories. Take care, and hang in there - Tom and crew.

[@davidhill7495]

Love your camp, researching for my own cabin someday. Any advice great appreciated

[@whiterook85]

I think one of the biggest things is don't be afraid to do it. It's a big decision, but one you will thank yourself for over and over. Think what you want, water, electricity, even flush privys. Check the area around you, is it getting built up, or will be farmed or woods. Are you close to town in case you need supplies. Hope that helps, and good luck!

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

Nice video Tom!! Can’t fight Mother Nature when you go up the cabin. She’s not always on are side. But bye the looks of things you guys still had a great and that’s all that matters Nice hat you had on while putting the lucky buck out👍👍

The Chairman we got from him having the cabin (the Chairman of the board), and Cook, well he cooked a lot of good food before his rough spot a few years back.

Whiterook85, Great video!!! Too bad the weather wasn’t cooperating for fishing. Always fun watching you guys catching some trout. Hopefully, this will be the year that you guys harvest several nice bucks.

[@whiterook85]

We are hoping for a good year. The deer hung around on the top of the mountain for most of the winter which is a good sign.

We own a house in Stony Fork; go to the Country Store all the time. Our daughter lives in Milton, DE.

Small world as they say, I'm about 35 minutes from Milton. Dogfish!

[@johnbofinger395]

@@whiterook85 I figured you were close to Milton. Last time I hiked up Mt. Tom from Darling Run, I turned around where Mt. Tom Road comes up to the top of the mountain because I knew it was private below there, where your cabin is. We’ve eaten at Burning Barrel and last year, Shawn was fishing under the Blackwell bridge about 2 days before we were. We’ll probably run into each other eventually. We love Tioga County and would probably move up there, except the grandkids are in south Jersey and south Delaware.

[@whiterook85]

Sounds like you know the area well. I'm sure we will meet up at some point. Want to get back up, but the weather pattern isn't that great right now. Hopefully in a few weeks. Take care!

[@johnbofinger395]

@@whiterook85 Yes, we’ve been going up there for more than 30 years, staying at friends places once or twice a year, until we bought our own place 3 years ago after retiring. Thanks for always honoring our veterans and first responders. My Mom’s brother was killed in the Battle of the Bulge and my Dad and many relatives served in WWII. My son-in-law is a 20 year Air Force veteran and my daughter worked as a civilian identifying MIA’s as a Forensic Scientist at Dover AFB for 13 years. We go up about 10 days a month, rain or shine (or snow)

Nice video again Tom.

Thanks again!

I was like, hey that’s Sintax77 when Sean got in to the car then I realised I was watching his Dad’s channel. 😊

[@whiterook85]

Yep, he flew in for this trip. He said he needed a little PA in his life. Too many rocks and cactus out there for him.

[@myplace848]

@@whiterook85 T’was a great upload Tom, I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. The cabin is looking good.

[@Bowhunter0923]

Love your video. Wasn't expecting for another two weeks. The cabin is looking great. Way to voice your opinion about Biden.

[@whiterook85]

We had to go a little earlier this year because some of the guys schedules. Next year it should be more towards the May time frame. Hopefully nicer weather, we really didn't get to hang out on the deck or around a nice fire this year. I just wanted to let folks know what I thought about that idiot. Like I mentioned, since day 1, he was just a JA.

[@Bowhunter0923]

@@whiterook85 I agree with you. At least you guys were able to get together and hangout as friends. I look forward to your videos and watch every single one. Keep up the good work

Awesome video Tom and fellas, enjoyed every minute. Looks like a great trip even though the conditions were not ideal. As for Biden, he and Trudeau make a good pair of idiots 🤣 At least there is great videos like this to take our minds off the crazy world. Regards Mark

[@whiterook85]

@@backcountrypipe Thanks Mark, we made the best of it, was nice just to spend some time with the guys. Deer camp we break off for the day and don't have a lot of interaction, then early to bed at night. So this was pretty nice. I think we were up to 2am the first night BS'ing. TV never went on. And you are right about those two, and a lot of others. I will keep politics to this video, but I think everyone knows where I stand.

[@MichaelLeister-l3v]

Always enjoy your trips to Deer Camp. Is Shawn traveling until fall or is he looking at moving west?

[@whiterook85]

Thanks! Shawn is traveling (RV), will be out in Montana, South Dakota, etc, then make his way back East in early fall.

Had to get that in there when we started working on the TV swap, take the shot when it presents it self I say. Steve needs a brisket cook to complete his redemption. Thanks and take care!

Tom, Really enjoyed your Spring Trip, nice to see Shaun. No worries, we do not think ANYONE would have mistaken you for a head-in-the-sand man! Whereas we are registered Republicans, we are aware that there isn’t really any difference in parties any longer and do not know how much longer we can tolerate the “uni-party”. That being said, we trust that all true Americans will take the time to see what is going on, and to vote accordingly next time! We truly loved seeing your cats- put a smile on our faces! “It’s cheese burger” time was subtly made with a pic of an amazing cheese burger. (Double meaning: no fish caught this time😞) Oh, and how we would LOVE to have a REAL ITALIAN PIZZA PARLOR here in North Idaho….we know, it’s only a dream..😄Blessings, Barb and Mike

[@whiterook85]

Hello Barb and Mike, glad you enjoyed it. Yes it was nice to spend some face to face time with Shawn instead of a short call on the phone. He will be in your area this Summer in the RV, then will be heading back this way in the early Fall. I really never have fit either party, so thus the "no-party" on my voting card. My support for the police and military, and the 2nd Amendment kind of tells you which way I lean. Missy and Andrew said thanks. They are a little more work than George, but they put a smile on our faces. You will be seeing more of them in the future. Tony's is a really good spot out in no where land, glad he opened up there years ago. I can remember sitting in there with Sr. on many trips having a great meal. Thanks again and take care!

Camp video Jim Ross ATL 😮😮😮😮😮😮

[@archer7141]

Good to see you guys again, no medical man? I’d say Camp Cook redeemed himself since the brisket incident. I may take my PA archery season vacation during election week this year to avoid the noise and chaos. Let’s go Brandon!

[@whiterook85]

Eric had another back operation, I forgot to mention it. Cook is doing well, but he's not taking a lot of chances. There has to be another brisket in his future.

[@RodgerBollinger]

What for batteries do you have for your solar system? Good video.

[@whiterook85]

We use the Ecoflow or Rockpals, solar generators.

I got peanut butter Lancaster brewing to try out today 🎉🎉🎉.

@@whiterook85 ok. I didn't get peanuts

If I remember correctly I thought I got a heavy dose of peanuts, but it didn't go well with the beer part. It happens, they aren't all the best.

Thanks, Shawn is traveling (RV), will be out west until early fall. He will be back for PA deer camp.

Hi there Buddy turkey season in this April be safe out there

[@whiterook85]

Will do, thanks!

[@billmcdowell4826]

Put the minerals on a stump. When it rains, the minerals will go into the stump, and the deer will eat the stump out.

[@rustyhooks3092]

Just learned about that at trout camp,last week, 78 year old told me😅

[@whiterook85]

Normally do both, some on the ground some on the stump. At the clover field I did it all on the stump. That is definitely the way to do it.
