you really think Randy, Gohunt, Meateater, aren’t making money off this ? content from videos is just that, it’s part of the brand that generates income.A lot of people don't have "mentors" or people willing to help them out, I know I didn't, even asking basic questions on a dedicated hunting site like this many times gives you a shit sandwich in return. You know that hunting videos on youtube are generally demonetized right? Also, you were lucky, you had a guy show you the ropes, Is your mentor willing to put out a free video showing people how to get in to hunting and how to apply for a tag? Are you willing to help the next guy in line?
Do you really need a “masterclass” for online scouting, learning to apply or whatever the hell that means, locating sleeper units etc. Go get in the woods, join a group, call the state biologist, learn habitat, get outside, just like the countless people before the internet did to actually absorb the experience. I promise it ain’t that hard.
more often than not folks on this site bend over backwards to give help. clothing, rifle info, bow tuning, boots, optic advice, you name it. when it comes to unit stuff ? thats a no go for good reason.
