Hello everyone,
I was wondering if any of you guys know of any good sites for videos such as hunting tips and the like.
I'm looking for videos similar to this one; myoutdoortv has a ton of good videos.

RE: Hunting Tips
I agree with Whitetaildreamer. I would also take a look at Youtube. When I am at work and a little bored I hit up youtube. They have thousands of hunting videos. There probably aren't a super amount of instructional ones, but you can watch some of them and get a good idea of how they are set up, what they are wearing, stand location and things like that. It's worth a look, but nothing beats an outing with an experienced SAFE hunter, that is for sure.

RE: Hunting Tips
Myoutdoortv is a good place to go if you want to watch videos, but you have to remember, these guys are hunting with guides in top notch places. These so called pros are pointed where to go to get a shot at a guaranteed trophy. I do realize that most of these guys are good hunters, but the work has already been done for most of them. They will give you plenty of tips, some will work and some will not. My best advice is to go out and learn by trial and error. I am a self taught hunter. What I have learned throughout my life, I have learnedfrommyselfby trial and error. The more you hunt, the more you learn.I also agree with whitetaildreamer. Find someone to hunt with who has a lot of experience. They will teach you more than any video can. A teacher doesn't learn to teach in college. A teacher learns to teach fromexperience and a little help from experienced teachers. Just keep reading posts on this forum and you will learn many tips. There are many good experienced hunters on this forum that will be happy to give advice.

RE: Hunting Tips
Listen to those who have suggested learining in the field under the guidance of an expereinced, successful deer hunter. There are entirely too many little things that are very often left out of the "For Show" programs. These are almost always geared more towards entertaining us, promoting thier sponsors,getting to the kill scene, etc.than being centered on "how to" education.Some shows do better than others. You certanily cannot experience bone chilling cold of a December eastern Montana or burning thigh mucles that come with a long hike though the hill country of Tennessee or be taken aback picking up the odor of a rank scrape at the edge of a Mississippi swamp bottom or feeling that rush or hearing an Alabamasquirrel fuss at a passing deer only to figure out that squirrel was fussing for fussing's sake or feel the numbing of the buttocks that comes with hours of sitting in a Texas box blindwaiting for the shooter buck to walk by ... well maybe you can get to that sensation of you couch potato long enough watching the videos.
