Cam Hanes

[Fatcamp]

So, in thinking about this thread a a bit I remembered one of my coworkers husband's is a member of the Cam Hanes fan club, or whatever you call it. Buys his stuff, reads the books he recommends, does silly physical challenges based upon "Keep Hammering!". She must be about sick of it if eye rolls are any indication.

I guess the whole fanboy thing in hunting is no different than a living room plastered in number 3's or standing in line for the newest set of LeBron James sneakers. These people are just so far removed from my life I have very little interest. Hell, doesn't Rinella live in New York City? And Rogan? Dudes flies first class from LA to SLC to be ushered to a private lodge and chauffered around to prescouted animals. It's like a hunting version of midday soap operas for bored housewives.

Really odd.

Don’t know much about him, but sounds like the stylish thing to do, hate on any hunter in the media that makes a few bucks by being marketable and having a positive attitude, being energetic and pursuing a living doing the thing he loves.

Its like a bunch of damn snowflakes invaded the hunting scene……

On a serious note, which camo makes your butt look skinny for the crawling shots? Last year my butt looked as wide as an ax handle is long, so need some asssssistance on my pattern choice

You’re still wearing camo pants? Eww. So 2020 bro. Two words, hunting solids.

My problem with him is that he doesn’t seem to do anything in actual support of hunting. There’s a potential ballot initiative in Oregon that would completely ban hunting, fishing and trapping. I may be wrong, but it doesn’t seem like he has mentioned it in any way. At least not on his Instagram where he has over a million followers. Being from Oregon and with his influence, I feel he should be pretty vocal about it. But nope. Just posts about how he works out and shoots his bow.

Ask not what others are doing for hunting.

Ask yourself what you are doing for hunting

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.

I'm not saying he isn't athletic. What I'm saying is JJ watt is a genetic freak, Hussian bolt is a genetic freak, etc

Now you also have to be something special to run your toe nails off every year.

His ability to push through mental road blocks is next level, but thats the pain he lives for. Vast majority of median aged people’s body can run for 6 hours, but very few mentally ca. That's the big difference at least I see. Again not saying he isn't an athlete or athletic just that his mental fortified is where he is freakish.

Just my opinion but it also explains why he is so inclined to be motivational. Personally not my cup of tea but more power to him. IMO

The guy we’d all love to know and hunt with if we could keep up.

Absolutely not.

He's really short.

@CHWine

Maybe yes, maybe no. But I do know this...

I'd rather be a very big man in a short body, than a very small man hiding in a big body.

I respect his daily physical effort. His level of commitment to maintaining his conditioning is inspiring for sure. That commitment and effort paid off in the mountains and in business. I don't have to like someone to respect them. He may or may not be a good guy, I don't know him, but I do respect his effort and commitment. I may not like the guy who designed the Golden Gate Bridge but I respect the level of work it took to design and build it........

Obviously some you guys can’t handle the subject as touchy as a successful hunter. So this threads likely going to the trash heap like so many of the others I’ve had to send there because a few people can’t handle other peoples success or the fact we’re not all the same

The Hush/flat brim/ Idaho Craigslist thread too, I’m assuming?

More straight insults in that thread, than this one.

What are you thoughts on cam Hanes. I can’t figure him out

His teeth are too white to be trusted.

it's gone too. Sick of the insults and the double talk of how guys hate FB/IG cause of the hate then come on here and insult their fellow hunters the same way

Sorry. I've been home sick for a week. Boredom got the best of me.

I don’t remember deleting any of yours but apology accepted.

I don’t expect people to like who I like, but when they just tear down other people, especially with the 3-rd grade level name calling, that’s not what this place is about.

We like successful people. We like it when hard work pays off. We like it when hunters win at what they work hard for. Even if they’re not just like us.

Good on ya Robby. What you say here, as well as what your represent on other platforms (podcasts, etc) is as good as it gets IMO. Appreciate what you do to keep this forum the best there is. Although I'm sure it's a huge PIA.

We all got to figure out how to get along. Or this is just Facebook.

I think he likes drama as he sure allows a lot of it on his site. good for traffic. Like car wrecks, dumpster fires and watching the police arrest a drunk neighbor. try not to look.

Seems like a nice family man. I like and respect several people who also like Cam. Can't stand anyone who hates him. ;-)
