The woods in the middle of nowhere you would think would be a quiet, peaceful little place. However, when the weather is crummy, it can be a very loud, mysterious, nerve-wracking area. Not only mysterious but dangerous. Here in the dense rainforest, winds from an approaching storm front increase the potential of injury or death from falling limbs.

Call here! There might be something in the bushes, right in here. If you ever forget your deer call, you can always use grass. Just put it between your thumbs like this, let go. This takes a couple of times to get it.

Sometimes, you don't have to show you nothing. Listen to that damn wind. Works pretty good! Represents a doe call or a fawn. Okay, yeah! And the bucks will come running. And the bears—just anything like that will stop them in their tracks. Gives you time to see if it's got horns or not, if it's legal or it's too creepy.

In these trees, we got to get out of here. I agree, it's get while the getting is good! Looks like something ran through here. Also, it gets thick. I'm blowing that deer call, Amanda; we're going to be calling in bears too. My thing is, everything's moving. I always try and catch, you know, for a deer moving or something, but today it’s like damn!

In the woods today, it’s not really a good idea to be in the old growth. Probably blowing about 30, 35, and there are lots of branches flying and trees cracking. It's pretty dangerous. At this point, we should get into a place where it’s a little safer. Hopefully, come back tomorrow morning; that wind—there’s a storm blowing in.
