Barefoot Bowhunting---Take 1

Well here's an update with my barefoot hunting idea. Its was a cool, rainy day and I hadn't gone hunting in a while. So I figured this would be the day I give barefoot hunting a whirl. All in all its was a great experience, I managed to stalk up on five doe whitetail. They had no idea i was there...well right up until I was about to try and shoot the lead doe. 

One thing I really enjoyed about hunting bare foot was the stealth. You will never be as quiet with any foot ware like you are with none. And to tell you the truth there was a sort of connectivity I felt. Be it toward the earth, hunting or the animal I was pursuing. It hard to explain...one of those thing you just have to do to experience it.

Below is a little video of me getting ready.


Below is the video right after I almost had an opportunity at a doe.


Hopefully I will have some more videos soon, sorry no kills or much action. Its kinda tuff when you don't have a camera man.
