THE TENT. Deer Camp 2022. Part 3. End of the season. It's all about the snow.

The final time up at The Tent for Deer Camp 2022 is all about the snow. Zach and I see fresh sign finally and lots of snow. Closing up The Tent for now and making sure it is ready for the upcoming winter trips.

Joe, I found you several years ago now by your tent videos. Thank you so much for your willingness to share your family with us. I hope you guys have a very Merry Christmas. God bless, Rob

[@djor316]

Glad to see zack with you Joe. Makes me proud of him. He is a well raised son. You did a good job with him Joe.

These tent deer hunting trip videos are part of my deer hunting season tradition. Thanks for these videos, Joe. I look forward to next years' deer camp at the tent.

[@chrismelvin8200]

I appreciate these videos so much. I literally feel like I’m there, a part of the trip. It’s so relaxing, so genuine. Thank you both from the east coast of Canada.

[@midwestproductreviews7360]

Sounds like DNR needs to have a "wolf season" there next summer to thin them out before deer season starts. Thanks for the videos. Really enjoy watching you and your family and some of your family's friends occasionally on them.

[@chrisdavitt7448]

I love watching your channel. Its 100% more than just hunting. Please keep making these video's. I look forward to watching them every year.

[@korndogsmom]

Can I just say, "Thank You Joe." You spend so much time filming and uploading and editing and uploading for us. We enjoy watching these so much. Thank you. I have watched since Zach was a young boy. I would miss you so much if you stopped. Your life is so different from mine and I very much enjoy watching the northern life you live.

Post card pictures at the end are just memorable.thanks Joe n Zach see you on the next across the lake

Trap and relocate some wolves to St Joseph Island, ON Canada. We have way too many deer.

It must be nice to have Zach helping out and doing the routine "Joe" jobs around the tent, however, you now have to find something else to do besides that! haha. I am sure just sitting and watching your Son is quite enjoyable. I too do the same thing when my daughter is at camp. Just having her there is enough for me. So nice.

[@terrieyeakley82]

Well I followed you up to the tent . You and Zack going up to your deer stands. You have got alot of snow.. watched you close up your tent for the winter. I will be going with you to the tent during duck season or is their something before that . ? Well I'll be there anyway. I love the tent series. . Thanks for sharing. Be careful going back to Minnesota . With all the snow ,the roads could be pretty slick. Be careful.

I will do the "Tent Winter Trip" this week.

Joe, love the little snippets of hunting camp at the end, and no it was boring when you were commenting from your journal. It's fun to look back about what the weather, who got deer or not, anything strange happen, etc. Zach & Joe sorry no deer this year. Hi to Melissa. Blessings to both your families.😊🇺🇲

[@robertrockwell7581]

thanks for posting Joe. enjoyed it again. I'm like you said they will have to do something about the wolves. the D.N.R. guy even admits it. stay safe.

And yet another deer season in the record books. This never good old. You made some great memories with your kids. Loved the pictures at the end. It isn’t just about the kill. It’s about the memories made. Some deer meat in the freezer is just a bonus. Thanks for another great video. Take care, see ya :)

[@williamzanolini6513]

Your videos are some of the best on KZbin. Had a great deer season in Pa. Shot my buck and doe the opening morning. Herds of deer can be seen in the fields at night. Good luck next year.

A picture perfect post card Christmas scene looking out over the lake. So beautiful. Enjoyed seeing all the photos of Zach, Sarah, the birds, the tent & lake with fall colors. Beautiful. Hope Zach made it home safely.

[@thedonleroy]

Another great video. I read that deer harvest in northeastern MN. was down 55% if I remember right. Wolves were part of the reason the article said. It wasn't great here in west central MN either according to what I have heard.

[@beckyumphrey2626]

MN DNR is at fault. Sad.

Yes 55% from last year that was also horrible up here and years before that. It’s sad!!! And they are still giving out doe tags in our zone’s.

My uncle hunts about 80 miles from where you hunt and said it's been awful as far as the deer population. He did 1st weekend but didn't go back up because there were so many wolf tracks.

I love your deer camp videos, It always makes me homesick but in a good way. If Colorado allows wolves back into the state (like they plan too) all the Elk and deer will be diminished within 10 to 15 years here also. Colorado is beautyfull but it's not the same kind of cold.

[@chuckolson5825]

Over by Little Fork whenever the wolves are around the deer are gone. Since 1966 we have seen it both ways. You hit it hard the snow helps.

[@taureanwilliams4626]

Going through the ledger it's never boring I realize that there was a log that you put in that you didn't even realize in between November and when you shut it down to October like you you time traveled and you still didn't remember that's why you shut it down it's never boring

[@rladner96]

Been waiting Joe thanks

[@noodlesisjustwatching]

Thanks for all the beautiful pics, feel sorry for Zach, we got 4 feet of lake effect in one day here in a snowy Buffalo NY suburb, others got more but it was still tough. Aw, Sara never made it back to the tent for her can of plums, LOL.

[@HowlingFunRVAdventures]

I'm a truck driver and I was driving thru MN last week, I saw so many deer. One area I saw at least 10 in a open field.

[@stevetalley187]

[@2fast65]

Great season other than the lack of deer I loved your comment about the dnr check out the movie Escanaba in da moonlight its pretty funny we watch it a couple times every deer season have a great day be safe.

[@HabitualButtonPusher]

No sir. Sitting in a cold stand does not look like fun to me. The Army kinda ruined being out in the field and freezing in the winter and burning up and being eaten alive by critters in the summer. Still fun to follow along on the journey though, especially as you get to hang out with your son and he wants to hang out with you.

[@lockedin60]

Zach is a patient hunter! I guess for you all since you can't cultivate any deer then it is what you see is what you get.

[@missmya3972]

I think the deer all migrated down to northern Indiana. I have had 2 doe eating my white oak acorns within 20 ft of my front door and every night we have anywhere between 20 up to 40 (literally close enough that I could count them) deer eating at the corn field behind my house. Too bad the farmer won't let us hunt on his land or else we could easily hit our limit.

[@steveneddy9492]

LoL. This is so funny I mentioned tracks and next video you talking about tracks

[@chriskarlstad1670]

Joe your hunting seasons are beginning to feel like being a Vikings fan "maybe next year" thanks for the great video

Darn wolves have destroyed the herd, going through the same thing around our property in the upper peninsula

[@mrrs8118]

Beautiful video!

[@tamistone7344]

Hi Joe, is there no wolve management up where you hunt? The population looks like it's grown alot. No wonder you guys haven't gotten a deer in awhile. Something needs to be done.

[@jons7677]

Have enjoyed this 3 part series. I enjoy all your videos, need to get caught up. LoL I didn't even get a license this year, got pneumonia right before gun season and didn't have any desire to be out sitting in a stand. 🙄 It's been a really weird start to winter up to now. I'm down in Indiana.

[@jasonrosario2566]

Zack don’t feel bad I am in the same boat as you. It been 10 years for me to

[@louieysursa5996]

Pretty cool

[@steveneddy9492]

If you drove all around and no tracks. The Deer must be in there somewhere. Get on the fresh tracks and follow them and look behind you once and a while

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

It is super hard to do that up there. Some of the woods and swamp areas are almost impassable for huge expanses. You end up crawling on your knees in areas just to get through the thickets. In short, it really sucks. Lol.

[@jeffk2501]

I could see Zach buying a 4 wheel drive truck or a suv living where he does now. As much as he likes to get out I could really understand him doing it

[@dalepogue5799]

[@stephenluciak6176]

I’ve been hunting in the same areas of British Columbia for 26 years, and this season was the first that I didn’t even see a single doe or cow moose…never mind what is legal for harvest. So I suspect that the wolf problem you are experiencing down there is also plaguing us north of the border. The province did a cull a few years ago but it just was not good enough. All things in nature come in cycles, and I suspect it will come full circle to where we are choosing one buck over another. Here’s to that!🤞

[@shawnhedges7018]

Hey Zachary put some snow tires on the van. Have the same van and have snows on it and goes through snow with no problems

[@countrymakeuplover]

You need to get a bird feeder for the birds. So they have something to eat all winter. (: love the videos

Joe I live behind a factory with 100 people working at it ,,they come out to smoke at break time , lunch, and two pm break ,, the deer bed on a steep bank right out of the parking lot ,,thirty yards , with all those people leaving and coming and smoking all day long ,,I watched them over and over come to the edge of parking lot and eat grass around the edge ,,if a car comes and they duck in to cover ,,they are always back out in less than three minutes. And mind you ,,the people never see them

[@kevinleconte6045]

Always tough to close up camp at the end of Deer season. And as you leave your mind goes to when will I get a chance to come backup again.

[@LanceHanlonOutdoors]

I know you guys like to sit on a stand and wait. I would get on a track and follow it. The most that's going to happen is you won't see them. You never know, you could stumble on them while they are bedded down.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

You have obviously never hunted in far north eastern Minnesota. It is almost impossible to do what you are saying.

[@LanceHanlonOutdoors]

@@JoeandZachSurvival Yup, never been there before. Is it because the wolves there? Or the woods are so thick? I have no idea?

[@jakeschisler7525]

Last year here in Missouri, I'm pretty sure no one around here hunted deer cause we had so many eating the corn i put out. This year heard a lot of shooting and we have only seen a few deer. Usually I go through many bags of corn. Did see 2 young deer a couple of weeks ago and one buck who had one antler, who came up and ate corn from the box. I hear the coyotes at night and down the road yesterday seen one walking in a neighbors field during the morning. Along interstate 44 we seen many deer dead on the shoulder. What a waste in my book. We use to hunt in Illinois at my wife's ex husbands farm, until his new wife found out. Lol!

[@josephshade2037]

Are you all allowed to feed the deer? Here in Kentucky, it is legal. My son is a plumber and we cut 5" PVC pipe about 5' long. We put a "V" notch at the bottom. We put a rebar in the ground and put our pipe on it. We fill with corn or horse feed We start in September putting out our corn or horse feed. It usually takes about a week before they start eating it. On my 113-acre farm I have five hunters. This year we took an 11 pointer, an eight pointer, a spike that was thought to be a doe, and two does. Our black powder season starts next week end the 10th and runs a week.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Very illegal here. You can put out salt blocks but they can have no feed of any sort mixed in them.
