Joe's father is a master craftsman. Makes such beautiful things.

[@robertkornosky543]

I’ve been watching for the last three years all your guys in deer 🦌 camp

[@s.pursell8901]

I'd love to just sit there and listen to your dad tell stores for hours.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

He can literally sit there and tell stories for hours. Be careful what you wish for. LOL.

[@la_old_salt2241]

​@JoeandZachSurvival That's okay Joe. Listen to him. My dad's gone home now, and I'd love to sit and listen. God bless, Rob

[@timothysharp2660]

The time that you & your son get to spend with your dad is priceless !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@markschnitzler4897]

Joe, I wait for your videos as i waited for Christmas morning as a child every Tuesday and Thursday. I'm 67 yrs old , have served in the US Army as a helicopter pilot, and as a military policeman in Wash DC. Thank you for the simplicity with which you present your activities. It is entertaining, wholesome (kinda like Mayberry RFD), and has a calming effect in my life. I tried the hay bales, built a 16x32 garage, and yes...I check my deer blinds as you do. I enjoy splitting wood and even enjoy stacking it. Keep up the excellent path you are on. Love how you watch over all you loved ones also. Zach has an excellent role model in you.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Thank you Mark for the nice comment and more importantly for your service. Both are greatly appreciated.

[@chris3m98]

@markschitzler4897, Thank you for your service 🙏 👍 Your service helped Joe live his life his way.

[@Bobbieyounce]

Thank-you for your service!

[@la_old_salt2241]

Thank you for your service sir. Rob

[@daves3016]

The trespasser might have been the tax assessor, thanks for the video joe, cant wait for ice fishing.

[@franklyterrence4860]

Wow. Look at that TV Stand! Care and creativity in every detail.

[@russvtguy]

God Bless your Dad for putting a new stand up. Started to slow down at 75 and hunt from my ground blinds now. Rifle opens on the 11th in Vermont and will be out there. Good hunting.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

That new stand had 2 more ladder sections so it could go up to 21 feet. I suggested we leave it low like it is now because it will be much easier to get in and out of.

[@BigDawg99xx]

Another great Video joe. Thanks for bringing us along with you while we get ready for deer season.

[@johnbarone3711]

Joe, your son Zac is so respectful to you and your Dad. Bravo! It's very refreshing to see.

[@rugermossberg9221]

Greetings from West Fargo ND. The Tent porch scene with your Dad was awesome...cherish those moments Joe. Good luck this season!

[@ldirk58601]

I have heard/learned that when the weather says you have a 50% chance of rain or snow it actually means that there's a 50% chance of someone in the area (Im not sure of the size of area but I am thinking like town size) getting rain or snow. It might not nessacarilly be in your vicinity but somewhere around you. So I guess the weather man is off the hook....somewhat 😉Also, it is heartwarming to see all you guys taking care of each other.

[@surfearth1]

Glad to see your dad moving and grooving!

[@ThomasSmith-fz6wq]

Every time you get to the tent it calms me down. Home sweet home. Man I could live out there or some place like it for ever. It's so awesome.

[@mkaysartfuljourney1239]

That squirrel was mad, you were taking his beer stash 😂❤

[@WiRenegade]

28:00 my favorite part. Love sitting on the porch with dad and or grandpa and just talking!

[@tanyajenkins919]

Your Dad should really enjoy the new stand for this year.

[@moeflanagan4934]

I love your tent cabin! Good to see you back there.

[@pattiwhite9575]

Joe have you ever thought about planting a couple of apple trees at the tree stand area? Out at the perimeter of area you shoot at. One to the left and one to the right. Maybe deer would come to that area year after year to eat there. Or plant a bunch of those blueberry bushes.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

I have had 2 planted in the Tent side yard. They have been planted there for many years but they just keep slowly dying. It is hard to find an apple tree that will grow that far north. The winters are just too harsh.

[@CarolSchreffler]

Greetings from Northeast Ohio. Tell Dad that he would be warmer in the deer stand that Zach made specifically for him about two years ago. Lol. It’s amazing how your dad’s health has improved

[@sherrythomas552]

I love the tent videos!

[@jefferyruleford4258]

Hope you all have a good and safe hunting season. Good luck.

[@mountaintenhuntingclub7484]

Another great tent video. Good luck this year Joe!

[@Superbowfin60]

I was bow hunting today. The first cold spell had lots of doe moving, but no buck.

[@colleenwilkin5705]

Your dad is so talented

[@perrywarren8743]

I hope you have better luck with the grouse than I’ve had. Up here the deer and grouse have started wearing those orange hunter vests so .. 🤷‍♂️

[@kennyauer2790]

Hey guys! I was just watching ( Or rewatching for the who knows how manyeth time in recent years lol) your 2021 deer camp video. I noticed Sara walked out with what looked like a blue sleeping bag. Thought it may be helpful to know that blue is one of few colors that deer can see and distinguish pretty Cleary. And well when you are the only Blue blob up in a tree on the landscape it may be a good idea to grab a different blanket lo. Not sure if she currently uses that one but figured I'd mention it. Keep up the great videos, can't wait to see y'all shoot a deer on camera. Kenny, from Wisconsin

[@bmk506]

Can you have a deer put that in writing next time you talk to them.

[@irenel.m.3238]

I love watching videos of you, your dad, and Zach. Furthermore, when you feed the birds, they already know you and approach without fear. Now I'm just waiting for the deer hunting weekend movie, I love it!😊

[@claire_A-T]

I don't know what it is about your trips to the tent, but I look forward to deer hunting season every year. It seems like I've been watching you for years. Well....maybe I have.

[@richpattison6243]

Thanks for the Halloween present Joe! Now I have something to watch once all the trick-or-treaters have come.

[@walterferguson9323]

Joe love your videos, question for you have you ever thought about how much time you actually spend stacking wood for the camp stove and the boiler wood burner. You sure stack a lot of wood. Good luck hunting and I hope Sarah gets one.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

100% time better spent doing wood vs sitting on the couch. I go nuts when I am doing nothing. I have enjoyed cutting and splitting and stacking wood since I was a kid. No need to stop now.

[@lisabooker6405]

Joe, I keep meaning to ask, what kind of birds are those that eat from your hands? So awesome to see. Ty for sharing. God bless, have fun. ~Lisa

[@craiglovelace1753]

This will help with my deer season blues!! First time in my life I didn’t draw any deer, antelope or elk tags. I’ve been gowing through withdrawals waiting for a tent video.

[@ericmonahan6580]

Not being funny but is that harder than drawing a tag? I’m from Pennsylvania where a deer tag comes with your license. I don’t know what I’d do if I couldn’t hunt one year. Hope you draw big next year sir.

[@craiglovelace1753]

@@ericmonahan6580 out west we have to apply for tags in a lottery for most big game species……some states have general OTC tags for residents, some do not. I applied for 13 tags in several western states this year and didn’t draw a single tag.

[@marshallteschner9865]

ever find out who the trespasser was?

[@steveanderson2881]

May all hunters get all there deer in Minnesota north

[@jamesmusser6160]

Man do I miss deer hunting. All my hunting buddies have passed or moved out of state. I'm up in years now, and I get the urge, but getting a deer out of the woods on my own would be too much for me. I really miss going to Uncle Earls camp, the camaraderie especially. Memories.

[@tymesho]

Really, how blessed are we to have experiences like this in our grand state of Michigan? Opening a cabin for deer season after summer's adventures is always a re-awakening, and akin to waking up as a child Christmas morning. You know every crevice, every flaw and perfection your cabin holds, and rejoice in the fact that it provides.

[@S1627-u4l]

Hey Joe, how about a video showing prior year’s deer harvests? I’ve been watching your channel for years and have seen you take a few deer but never Zack or Sarah. It would be great to take a quick trip down memory lane.

[@GWoods-rc5xw]

Joe, Where did you get the coffee cup that says"Happiness is watching Gunsmoke over and over".?????

[@MichaelLeister-l3v]

For some reason I always love when you film your trip up and stop for fuel and supplies.

[@steveglasco1904]

Joe, I would give all that have, to spent one weekend with my Dad up at the cottage and shot the breeze, as you guy’s are doing. I miss my Dad so much, cherish the time you have with him. And, make those same memories with Zach. Thank you for sharing Joe, you brought back some very fond memories for me.

[@stevencowan4540]

Have you ever thought about putting a propane wall mounted heater fireplace looking thing in the bedroom of the cabin just to help warm it

[@jesseweaver_fuyt]

We got a sound bar for our Vizio TV a Vizio brand sound bar. Its only 24" long and packs a punch sounds wise. Just a thought.

[@berniejanssen2863]

Instead of getting a new tv if its only the sound. Buy a sound bar its alot cheaper.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

That is NOT an option. If my dad has any more buttons to figure out it will be a nightmare. Vizio tvs suck. Period.

[@berniejanssen2863]

@JoeandZachSurvival Your dad seams like a pretty intelligent guy and very artistic. I'm 67 and had to teach my parents how to use video recorder. Can be a challenge at times.

[@ReefMimic]

24:09 they said on tv that those birds will show you the direction to the wild game so they can eat on the carcass at the kill. I’d like to think it’s true

[@roberthakeman9822]

The beer are cone tops worth alot of money depending upon the looks of them.

[@dannyholli0711]

Were you able to get a picture of a car or truck from the man on your camera ?

[@johnberryhill8106]

Wow ! It always amazes me of all that straight wonderful "tipi" poles just begging to be harvested! And with me here in Southwest Missouri, you couldn't find a straight tree to save your life ! LOL Love your show!

[@ryantowers2313]

Oh yeah my favorite time of the, love deer camp videos

[@mikesquier8743]

Joe how come whenever you go up to The Cabin You never have dinner or lunch with your dad?

[@ms-fl7jj]

Lots of deer starting to move around up here in Eveleth. Gonna be a cold one-good luck!

[@bryanwallman3375]

“I’ll let that grouse be”……-should have said “ I’ll let that grouse be…..DINNER!!!”-🍗🍗bang bang!!

[@johnberryhill8106]

Hey Joe, I always enjoy watching you cook your specialties at the tent and duck camp but, what does your dad cook when he's up at his cabin or at duck camp ?

[@marygordon3032]

Hey y’all it’s always good to see family doing things together no matter what, Joe those birds would come around you even if you didn’t have food because you have a kind soul and thanks for sharing! 👍👍👍🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯

[@erinburns4000]

You have a great family! I love Joe and Zach Survival ❤

[@kenh8925]

I keep seeing you using the lighter fluid. So I decided I wanted to make my life a little easier and went to Walmart to buy some. The last time I brought it the price was around a dollar. Well not no more. Dang

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

It is now up around 4 dollars. I am glad I have it stockpiled. Lol.

[@henryleslievermont6004]

Love these videos 😀 Best of luck to you folks! 🎃🎃

[@billdoms1579]

Using the ear protection on a chainsaw helmet while sighting in deer rifles is the most Minnesotan thing I will see all week. Awesome.

[@Alwayzgruvin]

am i wrong to say you have another daughter we dont see?\

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

You are correct, she does not hunt anymore.

[@ericjeska9306]

We will be over in McGregor this weekend hunting. Good luck this year to you all. Always look forward to these videos. We watch them at our deer camp. Heading up Thursday morning.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Say hello to everyone at Deer Camp. My dad and I are going up Thursday as well.

[@larrygorst8749]

I am so excited to see the "Fruits of your Labour" be rewarded. Can't wait. Thanks for sharing.

[@johnrisko8719]

That’s a nice spot your Dad picked, the spot Zach was looking at is nice also. It’s a shame what the Wolves did to the deer population, I can’t attest to the rest of PA, but here in SouthWestern PA the Deer population has exploded. We are seeing more Deer then we have in 20 years. Good Luck to everyone in your Rifle season, Deer down, but everyone be safe first

[@MeredithVidman]

whatever happened to the deer stand that zach made for grandpa several years ago?

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

It is still there and still in great shape.

[@brandon7700]

I hunt the western UP in Michigan. I understand what you mean about the wolves, they have devastated my area. It’s sad.

[@tawes140]

I have been waiting for this. Thanks Joe!

[@beckyumphrey2626]

Nice video. My husband has already used 6 of his 12 deer tags here in Georgia. The deer population here is healthy and amazing that hunters are allowed to harvest 10 does. Many needy families are being gifted venison this year. So glad we.do.not have wolves and have a 24\7 365 open coyote season with no limits. Looking forward to more ceramic shop and guesthouse videos. Be safe.

[@jonvicha9791]

Video like Jim Ross Atlanta 😊😊😮

[@srh1101]

Dang, I've got an early start tomorrow so I'll have to save this until tomorrow. Joy of being a follower in the UK 🤣

[@ipaddlemyowncanoe.7441]

I remember watching the video when your granddaughter was born. That was a while ago. I've been watching it off and on ever since. It's always interesting. Good stuff. Looking forward to your next. Have a good one. Safe hunting. 👍👍😊🇨🇦

[@ANDRESARKISSIAN]

Hi, did you ever figure out who was on your property that guy?

[@wayneroland8220]

Joe just never gets enough stacking firewood.

[@jenniferkargol3065]

That mystery man got me spooked

[@harlanmclain1719]

By the way u should put bath room up in the guest room & shit runs down hill as u know so its not a big job but looks great man & no reason why u shouldn't be happy bro everybody should be & you work for it so dont worry about what others cry about cuz they want it they can do it they just got to want it bad enough & you & i know it so thanks again bro cuz i for one appreciate what you've done for me & love waching some one with my attitude. Good luck & god bless you & yours

[@sburton223]

Love the Tent! I'll be deer hunting in a couple of weeks my self. My tent is the same as your duck hunting tent with a wood stove in it as well

[@elenamariarothenquijada71]

🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱

[@berniejanssen2863]

Your dad seams like a pretty intelligent guy and very artistic. Most of the sports bars around my area have vizio tvs. Will have to tell them they suck.

[@cherylriffle6871]

Great video as always. 35 degrees in West Virginia today with snow flurries. I am not ready for this crap. lol

[@HOWIE396]

Figure out who was in that picture?

[@tomquinsler4227]

You'll have to talk to your son about filling the woodbin inside the tent before he leaves......ha ha. Really enjoy your vids!!

[@YOOPERBubba]

I love watching but my favorite part is when you first open the door and start your temperature thing on and start a fire. Enjoy all your videos

[@georgethomas4483]

Gotta feel sorry for some of these guys that think its all about what you kill - they may never get it - it ain't about what kill its about the hunt and time spent with the folks you love family and friends - is Sarah an artist? Great kids my man you and your wife did a great job .My baby is a Sarah a little older than yours ,can't wait for the hunt start to hear you say Sarah time to get up it's 4:30 -mine would say dad it's 4 frickin 30 in the morning!!

[@jamesmusser6160]

Joe, I'm surprised you have deer with wolves in the area. Even though grouse spend alot of time on the ground at least they can evade wolves by flight. We have deer daily lol, I see far more deer around our house than I ever saw in the woods. Before rifle season opened we would spot on gamelands. And I have seen scores of deer around ranger stations. But after after the first shot ( unless we could mount a drive) seeing deer while sitting rarely occurred. Memories.

[@smilingswinebbq8129]

How old is the yellow fleece? LOL! I see it year after year!!

[@susansanders4123]

I hope you figure out who that man was.

[@bruceleiseth8216]

Joe - how many quarts of Girl Scout Water do you go through in a year?

[@howard-t-duck7446]

Leave your glasses on and turn the diopter until the image is clear and sharp.

[@patrickbenoit5495]

I have been trying to whipe the little apostrophe from my screen for 5 minutes !!!! ( Backwoods Cabin. ( ` ) thought it was dirt !!! 🤣🤣😁😁

[@1989Falkor]

I cant wait for deer camp. Headed to the Michigan UP in a couple weeks to hunt at an old camp. Good luck this year Joe!

[@Youngone-mb1yc]

It’s so nice seeing you and your dad hang out Joe.

[@RichardL7836]

Joe, my favorite part of the video is you and your dad just sitting on the front port reminiscing. More great memories made.

[@Troy.Martin]

Hey Joe, I have been a long time subscriber and really enjoy your videos. Your channels are my favorites. I got my wife to watch and now she is also hooked! She asked if we have any more “Joe’s” to watch! In your video you reminded viewers that you do read all the comments and you said to reach out if we wanted to support your friend and get a knife. I would like to see about getting one and would appreciate the information. Thank you for sharing your life and making excellent videos. Hope you and Melissa and the rest of your family are doing well! Take care, -Troy from Kentucky

[@jlittletonfamily]

I envy your freedom wish I had a tent property like yours! Love your content

[@yellowdeer7163]

I'm surprised those birds haven't followed you home!

[@stephenhaslam680]

After a day off me and my wife installing a winch on her Wrangler this was a great video to crack a beer and relax, thanks!

[@ClickinChicken]

If I was a deer hunter, I could deer hunt on way to work. OH wait no, you have to wait to daylight.

[@mightyquinn8727]

Man I'm happy to be back at the tent!

[@harlanmclain1719]

Yep thanks for filling the wood 🪓 box 😂 I really like have wood when I first get to camp just me!!! but in my case home 🏡

[@tuckersimes4108]

your lucky we had about 10 or 11 inches of snow last week here in center north dakota and the cold has hit in the 20s now

[@just-stuff419]

Looked like a grain belt premium beer can.

[@ClickinChicken]

cool echo upon shooting. doing your thing ya'll! :)
