I used to binge watch your cooking videos 3 years ago when I was sick in bed pregnant. Thank you for keeping me somewhat sane then. Glad I found your channel again 😊

[Jmon]

I love the Mom and Mav colab in the intro.. my mom means everthing to me keep on trucking sir.

The reason why your tent broke is because it didn't have an load bearing cross members. I work in the event industry business for the past 10 years. Seen wind and other natural weather events tear up some quality equipment before. No one realizes how heavy that canvas avatually is, especially wet and cold. 😅 recommended getting some pole braces so the weight of the snow doesn't break your tent this time.

I'd go have a nice talk with the neighbors asap. Just explain you bought the land to use, hunting included, and not to come on your land for any reason during hunting season. If they can't keep up with their dog, they need to build a pen to keep it in. Also, use a harness when you are in the stand. I have two friends who have fallen. One broke his neck and the other broke both legs. Both are permanently disabled now.

I like how he’s talking softly, yet the tent is making more noise 😂

[theathjr]

Well Mav it sounds like its about time to go have a cordial talk with your neighbor. Take him some swag and maybe some chili and have a conversation about staying the fudge off your property.

Mav - You may want to take down that tent during the winter, at least during the snow season. Given how much snow Minnesota can get, it may be difficult even for this tent to make it through the winter without collapsing. I live in New England, and I have to take down my tent each year before it snows. I left one up once, and it collapsed the moment we got a good snowfall. A foot or two of snow can be very heavy, especially once it melts, hardens, and ice forms within the snow.

Food for thought at least.

Great video as always!

One of the greatest channels on YouTube...
Positive and inspirational.

Hey Mav just wanted to say love the videos man. Before my grandma passed in March she loved watching your videos. I’m glad they can bring a lot of people joy I’m glad you haven’t changed up after getting big on here. Keep on trucking friend.

[RogueRipple]

Mav, you need to have "no trespassing" signs along the perimeter of your property. That way, everything is legal and on your side. Post signs every 10 feet or so, so nobody has an excuse saying they didn't see them. That's what we had to do, unfortunately. It's sad people don't have respect anymore these days.

Great video - if you roll the lime hard on the cutting board before you cut it (pressing down with your palm as you roll), it releases the juice by breaking the vesicles and makes it easier to squeeze. Same for lemons.

[NathanSchooly]

I only grunt as a last resort to try to bring a buck in after I see it but I never do it blind. It can scare bucks away. Pre-peak rut is when it works the best, during rifle season it usually doesn’t work at all 👍

For a camp accessible by 4 wheeler, consider a pellet stove. With a good hopper you can go days before refilling. Pellet bags are pretty cheap.

[QuestAndExplore]

I love the intro, how your mom was there helping you. Shoutout to all the moms out there 😊

[sandycoponen]

Great video as always. One trick i learned was to smash apples with my feet before getting close to my stand. Then rub the apples around the bottom of my leggings. You could even pour a little bit of apple juice around the base of your deer stand. The apple juice camouflages your human scent. And i would post some serious no trespassing signs for sure

[MrTurnerr]

Whispering to then assemble a loud ass metal tent 😂

[ShokobieunaWhite]

I’m 9 months pregnant and I don’t know why but I binge watch these videos and I’m just so at peace it’s a joy to watch while me and my little one is resting up getting ready for our big day 🤞🏾❤️.. I literally eat my snacks and will be watching your videos all night .

[joewhite]

If those poles bend or break again and the canvas is still good you don’t have to buy a whole new tent. You can get all those brackets and then go to Lowe’s and get all the steel pipe cut to size needed. We send up a huge 12x20 awning canopy with those brackets and 1/2 steel pipe. We would take it to the beach every year for camping. It also survived a tropical storm the one year.

[PlancoandChill]

You have a way with keeping my ADHD mind on a video. Great job. Loved seeing the tent get replaced. I love tents like that.

[iEternalFires]

I suggest building a low wall on the inside of your tent. Maybe 3 1/2 - 4 ft tall. I did that and my tent is sturdy. Plus, it helps keep some drafts out.
