He's the king of the humble brag first and foremost, which I'm not a fan of. Beyond that he seems like one of those guys that's really annoying when you hang out with him in a big group or see his posts online, but then super cool when you hang out just one on one. I have a couple friends like that, most people probably do as well.

His manscaping game is weak and I want the meme threads unlocked because I can’t find a solid answer on eating your hunting partner. Now that y’all know what my favorite threads are I can tell ya that yes, I have been drinking.

Seems cocky and arrogant. His “must be nice” snide comments make him appear to be a douche, at least to me.

I don’t think you understand the “must be nice” it’s the antithesis of a snide comment. He is sarcastically making fun of people that make snide comments like “must be nice” insinuating that something is given to someone instead of them earning it.

He’s all right by me.

His Instagram post shooting his bow with broad heads from the kitchen table cracked me up

It us amazing how so many posters project negativity onto people like Cam Hanes whom they have never met. Part of the sickness of our society.

Oh please..
When you put your shit out there on almost a daily basis, you automatically subject yourself to scrutiny.

Minus this ridiculous current Hanes man crush, you do the same exact thing…just in different arenas.

Someone on here implied his hunts weren’t actually fair chase or public land, they didn’t specify what. I was disappointed when I heard that and hope it wasn’t true. I don’t really get all the haters and too cool crowds.
I watched a video where he said he hadn’t had to eat a tag in his last 10 elk hunts (something close to that it’s been awhile since I saw it)
That is impressive

Hears unverified rumor from unnamed person.

Is disappointed.

Decides not to actually verify, but instead to spread unverified rumor and disappointment to the world so the cycle can repeat itself.

^This is what’s wrong with our country.

A bit biased as an adult onset hunter of sorts that was partially influenced by Hanes...

the dude holds down a 40-hour a week job as a materials buyer for a local municipality, hunts his ass off, does the social media thing, lifts like an 80s action star and runs like Forrest Gump on crack. His message is generally positive and upbeat. Oh, BTW he is a badass archer.

What the hell is not to like?

oh yeah, he does product endorsements…wakey, wakey, eggs and bacey! Have you watched an NFL game? NBA? NHL? NASCAR race? News flash:Sponsors fund athletics and media in almost every form At some level. Even the stuff you pay a subscription for like Netflix and HBO, or did you just think it was magic that Tony soprano gave his wife a Porsche Cayenne for no reason at all and happened to mention the trim package and engine size for no reason either. Take a look at this page. There are a half dozen banner ads, including one that is probably under the text of this post or the one above it or below it.

so color me a fan of Cam Hanes. Now he is no damn sexual like @Aron Snyder, But Cam seems like a good dude that somehow finds a way to do more shit than just about anyone I know of and still hunts more than me.

Wish I could double like this post. So many negative Nancy’s in the world that just want to tear people down.

I don't think he hunts any high fence or anything non fair chase but he does hunt some private. He's been open about it, some influencer's are not and that's where I might draw the line. Basically he spent many years hunting public like most everyone else and as he worked hard and earned more money he was able to start hunting some private. I'm not a big follower nor up on what all of his private hunts may be but he has regularly hunted elk on one or maybe both of the AZ Apache reservations. Hell people on Rokslide hunt the res so do we not like them because they worked hard and can afford that? I'd love to hunt the res for elk but it's not likely happening and I don't care if someone can. Do we hate on people that hunt Mexico for Coues and Mule deer? All those hunts down there are private ranches. Mexico sheep? Nah! More power to them!

Ever since I watched him do a nasty video about the Mathews No-Cam bow I went No Cam in my hunting personalities.

Dudes a shit talking, narcissistic shill.
Again, you put garbage out there..expect criticism.

Lots of people work 40, work out, shoot and compete.
They’re no-names…and don’t expect ‘likes’.

Hanes may motivate people, but so did Jane Fonda and Richard Simmons.

Hanes isn’t anything special, except for he’s in the pubic eye.
Now that archery is insanely more popular in the west, guys like Hanes get put on a pedestal.

Clearly I don’t like PEOPLE like Hanes.
Nothing personal to the guy, just a personal preference.

If I was a leg humper, you’d have a different opinion of me.
But, since I’m not…you’re formulating an opinion of me, just like I’ve formulated an opinion of narcissistic shills like Hanes.

I wouldn't call him gifted athletically.
His athletic ability isn't a genetic freak. His work ethic and mental fortitude is freakish. He is in a very minute percentage of the population in mental fortitude.

More power to him.

He has worked two plus jobs for almost his whole life. That's not a shrill

I would disagree with the not being a genetic freak. Having been a HS and college wrestler and football player as well as being a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Pan am champion I can tell you first hand the body is not meant to take the pounding he puts it through with the 10 plus mile runs every day. The weight lifting and “everyday is arm day” overuse injuries would plague IMO over 95% of athletes that don’t have a down time off season.

He is a genetic freak with amazing mental toughness.

Hanes is absolutely athletically gifted.
That is undeniable.

Lots of no-names work way more and have much higher levels of mental fortitude.
Guys that would put Hanes to shame.

The difference… the no-names don’t have fan clubs, so you’ve never heard of them, and they don’t care, because they’re not shills.
