- 0:00He opens the off-grid cabin, lights the wood stove and shows the interior.
- 2:55A missed alarm means a late wake-up before he dresses and walks to the tree stand.
- 4:20A deer appears close to the tree as he settles into the hunt.
- 12:24Don helps pull the loaded sled through the woods, slipping into a shallow creek.
- 18:59Fresh tenderloin goes into a cast-iron skillet heated on the cabin's wood stove.
Pajama pants under hunting trousers sound like a practical shortcut for an early start. The Wooded Beardsman's alarm has other plans. "My alarm did not go off," he says, before heading from his off-grid cabin to the tree stand.
The resulting deer hunt is the most-watched of his eight uploads this week. Sponsored by Bass Pro Shop Canada, the video follows the whole route from an overnight cabin stay to preparing fresh tenderloin in a cast-iron skillet on the wood stove. Don joins the retrieval effort, helping pull a loaded plastic sled through the woods and slipping into a shallow creek along the way.
That full-length outing gives viewers something different from the recent yes-or-no wild-food bites. Several commenters remember watching this kind of video years ago; one traces the habit from high school to nearly finishing university. Another says watching the hunting videos helped motivate them to get a hunting license. The connection is to the whole process, not just what's for dinner.
Across the channel, subscribers held steady while the existing catalog and new releases added roughly 831,000 views. Daily viewing is currently below its usual level. Nearby in the outdoors group, Kamoka Pearl had a growing week, while Jon B.'s daily viewing was also quieter than usual.
The deer vlog carries the most daily momentum, with "Something SUPER COOL about CRAWFISH!" close behind at its early pace. "The ONLY way to smoke DEER!" adds another cooking stop to a week whose main feature ends back at the cabin stove.
