Opening Day Deer Season! (We Went Deep and Far!)
We hit the PA (Pennsylvania) woods in search of that big buck for opening day deer season. I called in a pack of does at sunrise. I setup a mock scrape about 50 yards away a month ago and felt that might prove fruitful as they came by in and around the mock scrape. We were feeling good about this opening day deer season. Unfortunately, right after the does came by another hunter interrupted our hunt, then decided to stay in the area we were in, within 30-40 yards of us. He stood right in in the path of where the does were, then stood around for 45 minutes. We waved, he glassed us. Then decided to not leave. So we had to go to another area we scoped out months ago. That did not prove fruitful. But had a great time by my best bud and got a hellacious workout! We hiked in from 550ft to 1250ft elevation, then hiked west 600 yards and down to 925ft elevation, then back to 550ft elevation when we left. Here is to better luck another day!

Baker's 7 Year Single Barrel Bourbon (No Bull$h!t Bourbon Review)
This Bakers 7 Year Single Barrel Bourbon is delightful! I do not see Bakers 7 Year Single Barrel Bourbon in many other videos, so it flies under the radar. Bakers 7 Year Single Barrel Bourbon is well rounded, a great proof point at 107 and a reasonable price. All together, Bakers 7 Year Single Barrel Bourbon will not disappoint you in my opinion. The question is, is it bourbon night? For me that is Friday or Saturday. Thanks for watching!
From Willett:
"From still to rickhouse to bottle, a lot of things happen with Baker’s® Single Barrel Bourbon. Weather, length of aging and rickhouse placement all shape the distinct notes and flavors of each barrel. See how and where your bottle was born."
Distillery: Jim Beam Distilling Company
Vol: 107 Proof
Age: 7 Years Minimum
Classification: Kentucky Straight Bourbon
Mashbill Breakdown: 77% Corn, 13% Rye, 10% Malted Barley

Nelson Brothers Reserve Bourbon (No Bull$h!t Bourbon Review)
The process begins with selecting the choicest lots of well-aged bourbon barrels in the Nelson’s Green Brier Distillery inventory. These barrels would craft the ideal foundation of flavor and fragrance to forge this truly premium and balanced expression. Once singled out, the exceptional sources are expertly batched into a superior, high-proof blend, rich with rye, and redolent of dark cherry, caramel, and spice. The result is Nelson Brothers Reserve, a bourbon certain to startle and delight anyone who comes within sipping distance.
95 Points -The Tasting Panel Magazine, 2022
“This is a high-rye bourbon with a high proof of 107.8 that manages to not overshadow its inner beauty. It’s warm and polite on the nose, with scents of root beer, sandalwood, and baked apple. The flavors are delectable, from nutty oat and peach blossom to ginger, black cherry, and spiced tea. Notes of saddle leather come in on the mid-palate, leading up to a finish of burnt orange, vanilla, and maple.”
- Meredith May, The Tasting Panel

Which Oktoberfest Beer is The Best? (Hacker Pschorr vs Paulaner vs Ayinger)
Oktoberfest Beer, Hacker Pschorr vs Paulaner vs Ayinger! Which is the best? Hacker Pschorr vs Paulaner vs Ayinger? Two taste similar and one tastes different. I prefer Hacker the most, as Paulaner has a slightly metallic aftertaste. Ayinger is all around different and not up my alley as it is heavier and less carbonated. Hacker I can drink and drink and drink. Hacker is lovely and my pick in the Hacker Pschorr vs Paulaner vs Ayinger shootout!
From Hacker Pschorr:
Forbidden as it was to brew in summer, a stronger beer – the Märzen – was brewed earlier in March. It would finally be served at the Oktoberfest, under the “Heaven of Bavaria”. We have returned once again to the age-old recipe and recreated that gloriously smooth, honey-coloured piece of history from times gone by. And all is brewed with due reverence to the Bavarian Purity Law of 1516.
From Paulaner:
Ever since 1818, we have brewed our bottom-fermented Oktoberfest Bier during Oktoberfest – Germany’s favorite Oktoberfest beer and a true institution in Munich. The glass is full of October sunshine, strong and golden. The perfect balance of a light taste of hops and a strong note of malt. A feast of a beer, which always goes down well. This beer is only brewed for the Oktoberfest. That’s where it belongs, along with all the fun of the fair like the Ferris wheel and roasted almonds.
From Ayinger:
They have nothing on their website.

Willett Pot Still Reserve (No Bull$h!t Bourbon Review)
This Willett Pot Still Reserve Bourbon Whiskey is a middling selection. Willett Pot Still Reserve Bourbon Whiskey is very soft, not bold at all. I like it because of a great night out with Mrs. Berz we had once when I drank this all night. And, Willett Pot Still Reserve Bourbon Whiskey is an alright bourbon, just not worth the price in my opinion. Somewhat comparable to Old Tub and Heaven Hill 80 Proof. Worth a try, but nothing that you'll run to the store if you drink it up and are out of it. The question is, is it bourbon night? For me that is Friday or Saturday. Thanks for watching!
From Willett:
They literally say nothing about their bourbon on their own website. Wow.
Distillery: Willett
Vol: 94 Proof
Age: N/A
Classification: Straight Bourbon
Mashbill Breakdown: 65% Corn, 15% Malted Barley, and 20% Wheat

Deer Scouting and a Mock Scrape!
Setting up a Mock Scrape for bucks pre rifle deer season. Some people use scent, some do not. I think when setting up a mock scrape, why not? It cannot hurt anything. I am getting this mock scrape up late, but better late than never! Also, we are picking the top of the ridge in this location as our base of operations this upcoming deer season. Gives you options and deer travel the ridges more during the day, as they can look down and see or smell trouble better than being at the bottom of ridges. We shall see!

Knob Creek Single Barrel Select Bourbon (No Bull$h!t Bourbon Review)
Knob Creek Single Barrel Select Bourbon is a store picked bourbon. They should be relatively similar. Knob Creek Single Barrel Select Bourbon is great, and honestly, I like all the Knob Creek offerings I have had. Usually, solid all around. I would get this Knob Creek Single Barrel Select Bourbon if you see it around!
From Knob Creek:
"Store-specific offering from a bourbon barrel specially chosen by your local retailer through our Single Barrel Program."

Four Roses Small Batch Select Bourbon (No Bull$h!t Bourbon Review)
Four Roses Single Barrel Select Bourbon is a mid level bourbon. Four Roses Small Batch Select Bourbon really is not super complex or bold. I notice with most Four Roses that they are gentle. This Four Roses Small Batch Select Bourbon is worth a shot on sale, as my review is that there is nothing overly special about this Four Roses Small Batch Select Bourbon.The question is, is it bourbon night? For me that is Friday or Saturday. Thanks for watching!
From Old Forester:
"Master Distiller Brent Elliott selected and mingled six of Four Roses’ 10 Bourbon recipes, each aged a minimum of 6 years, to handcraft Small Batch Select. Non-chill filtered and 104 proof, our newest permanent product-line extension offers truly unique flavor characteristics. 104 proof. 52% alcohol/volume.."
Distillery: Four Roses
Vol: 102 Proof
Age: N/A
Classification: Straight Bourbon

Pikesville Straight Rye Whiskey (No Bull$h!t Review)
This Pikesville Straight Rye Whiskey is a great change of pace from bourbon for me. Pikesville Straight Rye Whiskey really gives a funk.
The question is, is it bourbon night? For me that is Friday or Saturday. Thanks for watching!
From Pikesville:
"First produced in Maryland in the 1890s, Pikesville Rye, along with the rest of the once-booming Maryland Rye industry, was shuttered by Prohibition. The brand reemerged after Prohibition and became the last standing Maryland Rye, as the rest of the industry's production had ceased. Now produced in Kentucky from extra-aged barrels stored in prime warehouse locations, Heaven Hill Distillery keeps this historic Maryland mark alive."

Breeo X24 Smokeless Fire Pit (Initial Review)
The Breeo X24 Smokeless Fir Pit has proven to be great so far. Breeo X24 Smokeless Fire Pit compared to Solo Stove, well the Breeo X24 Smokeless Fire Pit is out of the Solo Stoves league! The Breeo X24 Smokeless Fire Pit is crafted better, is heavier, gives off more heat and has a much better stand for decks, etc. We have used our Breeo X24 Smokeless Fire Pit for about 7 times now and have come to enjoy using our deck area more than before. We have a firepit in our yard I built, but we find ourselves using the Breeo X24 Smokeless Firepit more now. We think it is the best smokeless firepit. Stay tuned for a long term review of the Breeo X24 Firepit in the future!

Peerless Small Batch Barrel Proof Bourbon (No Bull$h!t Bourbon Review)
Peerless Small Batch Barrel Proof Bourbon is a gem. Peerless Small Batch Barrel Proof Bourbon is an underproof tasting bourbon. It is 108.5 proof, but drinks like a sub 100 proof bourbon. Peerless Small Batch Barrel Proof Bourbon is great intro to higher proofs if someone is just getting into bourbon drinking.This is one of my favorites, a solid bottle to have around. Would also make a great gift for anyone who is into bourbons!
The question is, is it bourbon night? For me that is Friday or Saturday. Thanks for watching!
From Old Forester:
"Peerless® Kentucky Straight Bourbon upholds the promise of producing top-notch spirits from the historic distillery. Unlike rye, which features more hay and pepper, Peerless® Bourbon is rooted in fruits, florals, and oaks. The nose features citrus, cedar, and honeysuckle as well as a nice balance of spicy oak. The first sip is that of caramel and toasted oak before a multitude of notes from around the flavor wheel show up on the palate. The finish showcases an enduring duel between sweet and spicy notes as citrus, florals, and sweet oak tussle with dry cocoa, cinnamon, and spicy oak. The result is an amazing whiskey - fascinating for everyone from beginners to connoisseurs.
Every drop of Peerless® Whiskey is honestly crafted, never sourced. Never chill-filtered.
Strictly sweet mash. Barrel proof. No water added. Made in the USA."
Distillery: Kentucky Peerless Distilling Company
Vol: 108.5 Proof
