PROS: Incredible amount of useful information, practical tactics that can be used in any part of the country, a good way to help you kill bigger bucks.
CONS: Video is a little on the long side, but that's not exactly a bad thing.
This isn't going to be your typical Gear Guide here on NYBowhunter.com. I'm not going to talk about a piece of equipment I use to help me take big bucks. This is a piece of the puzzle that helps me locate monster bucks prior to the season.
Last year I came across this video called Hunting Marsh Bucks from Blood Brothers Outdoors. This group of hunters knows what it takes to kill big bucks year after year and that's what I'm interested in learning about. The big buck I'm going to shoot this upcoming fall comes from a variety of things - scouting all year long, shooting my bow all year long, reading deer hunting books, bowhunting magazines, watching educational hunting DVDs, and speaking with other experienced hunters. Information is the key to killing big bucks year after year.
With each passing season it becomes easier to locate the bigger bucks because experience teaches us where to look for them. That's exactly what these videos do. Hunting Marsh Bucks takes you through a year round scouting approach and helps you cut down the big woods into small areas likely to hold big bucks. If golden rod or cattail marshes are in your area, check out this video. If you hunt swamps you can apply some of the same techniques to these areas as well. 
The newest release from Blood Brothers Outdoors is Hill Country Bucks. For us New Yorkers this is a must have video. These DVDs are long and feature few hunts for a reason. They want to show you what to look for and how to hunt a specific terrain specifically for big bucks. Their approach is logical, requires hard work, and has proven itself time and time again. I hunt a large tract of public land that is very hilly and also has swamps. I am able to use the tactics from both of these videos to key in on big buck habitat and set up accordingly. Hunting hill country is tricky because of the winds, thermals, terrain and location of bedding areas and food sources, but with this video it will become a whole lot clearer to you on how all those pieces fit together.
Usually I'm trading in and out of gear rather quickly, but these two DVDs are two that will be in my collection forever. The information they provide is at the very least an excellent refresher course, but for most, myself included, will be a greatly appreciated learning experience.
