    well guys ive been working hard trying to get a kill on film this year - all I can say is its way harder than it looks!!!!
    heading into winter Im running out of time to be in the stand so I took the only opportunity ive had in a long time to try and catch one on film.
    heres what I got:

    First Harvest On Camera - YouTube

    nice job.. yup its a lot harder then it appears. Try doing it in heavy cover when you have only a few seconds to get it all lined up LOL

    Congrats !

    Giant 4"er, that made me laugh. Use that term in a bar and you'll be going home alone for sure.

    Nice job! Congrats on getting that first one on camera.

    I self video 90% of the time myself. Been doing it for 3 years now. It gets easier the longer you do it, but yeah, it's a challenge. Nice job again!

    I really enjoyed that and most of these I do not. This was just a real hunter being real. I am going to guess total P&Y score of 13 and 6/8.

    I liked the videography, if you're looking for constructive criticism, i would have picked different music...lol

    Congrats and good job on getting everything lined up though.

    Congrats!

    Feedback....I'm a fan of short and sweet videos. I don't see why this couldn't have been half the length. I'm no videographer though and I only dabble in self filming (bow mounted cam) which isn't as much work as your setup. Just being honest...when someone posts ten minute videos, I'm gonna skip to the "good" part unless it's 10 minutes of non stop action which it usually isn't. No hard feelings, just speakin' the truth.
