    Ladies/Gents,
    What are you guys using for background music? I found a few royalty free mp3s but they just dont seem to fit what I like, Any suggestions? Thanks.

    I also use royalty free music. I personally stay away from country type music because quite frankly too many hunting videos use country music. I like to find music based on the genre and then implement it where necessary. For example, if a buck is cautiously walking closer but trying to scent check me I like to add suspence or sneaky type background music. The key is not to overdo it with music either. Make sure to fade the music out and let the natural sound of the deer walking or making a rub take over because the last thing you want is to end up with a music video. I have a pretty decent "webisode" that I put together for this past hunting season but I need to edit in more commentary and I didn't end up with a kill. I'm hoping that I can get a turkey this spring and at least have something killed on camera.

    Spear,
    Thanks. But question where do you get your music from?
