| 1 | VideoSeason 2, Webisode 7: Road Trip: Meet Mike Wheeler of Wheeler's Whitetails | Chuck and I went on a turkey hunt with Mike Wheeler of Wheeler's Whitetails in Kansas. We knew he had a ton of turkeys with a near 100% success rate but I have to admit we went with an ulterior motive. You see, Mike grows and kills some of the biggest bucks in the Midwest and Chuck and we wanted to learn some techniques from him. We wanted to see if these techniques could be applied on our hunting lease in Georgia and brought to you in Reality Hunt Club webisodes. The interview portion of this video is over 17 minutes long so heads up on the length. The first half is talking about Mike's outfitting business with the second half being all about his tricks and techniques. I hope you guys enjoy this video and we will be trying some of his advice in our management plan and will bring you our success or failure in implementing some of them. | 5/23/12 | Free | View In iTunes |
| 2 | VideoSeason 2, Webisode 6: Supplement Feeders | This year we decided to put a couple of gravity/nudge feeders on the club. We shopped around but could not find one we liked, nor could afford, so we decided to buy all the components and put them together ourselves. After we put them out, the majority of the deer have yet to figure out how to use it, so as of mid April, we are just going to run corn in them. Maybe next year all the deer will be using them and we can use a high protein supplement feed. Until then, we will wait until they figure it out. Watch the video as I go over all of this and show your some trail camera video of our deer interacting with these feeders. | 5/2/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

| 10 | VideoWebisode 43: Doe Management | In this webisode, watch me shoot a nice management doe. I briefly discuss how we try to shoot different ages/weights of does to equally distribute the harvest over all the age classes. Don't laugh too hard when I say "passion" a couple of times when I meant to say "passive". Also, watch how fast these mature does can smell you if the wind swirls and changes directions.

| 11 | VideoWebisode 42: Frolicking Nubbin Bucks | In this webisode, Chuck and his daughter were hunting for the three legged buck when they had these encounters with these young bucks. I want to thank Chuck for sharing his video. | 12/18/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
| 12 | VideoWebisode 41: 911 is Dead | I have never seen a deer make legendary status like a buck we call 911. We first started following him during the 2008 - 2009 season. There were 3 of us hunting this deer over this time. His movements were like a ghost. Every once in a while we got a couple of photos of him and then he would disappear for a while. Then this year, we figured him to be at least 5 1/2 years old, one of us said that we were going to get him. Sure enough, the unpatternable deer started showing up at feeders before season, and low and behold he started showing up on one of our food plots at night regularly. All 3 of us hunted him hard but with no luck. I even saw him run across a lane but no shot. Then one morning one of the other members, Bill Vincent, came up and sure enough shot him. He knew it was a nice buck but not quite sure it was 911. Watch this video to see the recovery and the photo history of this legendary buck. | 12/14/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
| 13 | VideoWebisode 40: Blur Buck for Me | After hunting hard since September 10, I finally got a shot at a mature buck. I had a few chances at Sway but just could not close the deal. During the pre rut and rut, all I could see was young bucks chasing. Well,this morning late in the rut, I made it happened. We call him the Blur buck because we always got trail camera photos of him that were blurry due to him running by the camera. Watch the video for the story. He is not the biggest on the club, but he is 4 1/2 years old and my reward for hunting hard this year. I am proud of him. Enjoy the video! | 12/11/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
| 14 | VideoWebisode 39: 3 Legged Buck Still Going | Last year I got a series of trail camera photos of this three legged buck. We did not see him any during the season and we figured he did not make it. Then he showed up on trail camera and also, low and behold, he appeared in front of Chuck when he had his video camera. Watch this webisode of this amazing buck who has proven what a survivor he has become. | 11/30/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

| 16 | VideoWebisode 37: We Got Sway! | Well, I have been hunting Sway off and on this season with four different encounters during this season. Especially the one with him at 25 yards during bow season, but I could not get a shot. My Dad came over and he had only been here for 5 hours and he killed Sway. Watch this webisode of his after the shot interview and a look back at the history we had with this magnificent home grown buck. | 11/22/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

| 18 | VideoWebisode 35: PlotWatcher Pro Review Part 2 | Back in October, I unboxed the new PlotWatcher Pro by Day 6 Outdoors and discussed its new features and capabilities.

| 19 | VideoWebisode 34: Buck Videoed With My New 3rd Arm Camera Arm | I recently decided to upgrade my camera arm after selling my Primos one to a buddy.

Watch this video for my review and see in action videoing this nice young 8 point. One more thing to note is I used my new iPhone 4S to video some of the review.
