jadon270's Story

After 6 years of hunting I wanted to be able to look back on some of my hunts. I couldn't get anyone to film for me so, when I was 15 I thought I would try the challenge of filming my self. Know one actually thought I could do it but I was determined to at least try. The first year I only hunted gun and crossbow. After a lot of time and effort I finally got a hunt on tape. My friends and family were surprised, not only that I got action and audio but that it was enjoyable to watch. I was excited and that gave me the encouragement to go on with it. I captured a few more hunts on tape that year then we had to move to Maryland. That kind of ended the 2005 season early for me. Then the next year I found out that crossbow wasn't legal in Maryland. Man that brought a whole new challenge in. I no longer had hands it seemed! I couldn't let that stop me though. After a few hunts it didn't seem that much different then a gun. I got 6 hunts on film that year. All bow hunts accept one. Then I made my first DVD (Young Bucks Score Big Game). In 2007 we made a trip back to Ohio to one of my Dad's friends place for a hunt. That's when I decided to try two camera angles. Not only for better footage but also that people would believe that it was only really me filming. I could have used my crossbow but, decided to leave that for ground hunts only. The first morning I set up. It wasn't long till I heard noise to my right. I looked and saw three does. I was hunting for a buck but I didn't see one in the group. After taking an hour to set up everything in the dark I decided I wanted to take something home. So, after getting both cameras rolling I took the biggest doe. Thankfully the filming turned out well and the meat tasted great. I keep trying to improve and try new things every year. There's know telling what will be next so keep your eyes out for 2008!
