  • are there any pocket hunters left?

  • My pocket hunter finally arrived the other day and it is sweet. Got a few of the 3 piece breakdown arrows as well. Totally worth the cash. A few friends were kinda laughing when I pulled it out but changed their tune pretty quick.

  • DUAL SURVIVAL RULES!!!

  • ops i did it again i shit on my friend

  • I was wondering when you were going to come out with it... I am glad you included an attachement for bowfishing. I use a sling shot quite a bit.  I really like this idea.

  • will you have them at the indy 1500 and how mutch

  • With the beard you look like a badass Patrick Stewart.

  • Dude no shit you can make it yourself..his videos show you how...it isn't shameless self promotion when he explains how you can make it yourself.

  • Lets see you shoot a fish with that. Good luck!

  • @xjuice207x Its not a big deal its all about practice. Its just like bowfishing.

  • I"ve had my pocket hunter now for a couple weeks and I have to say AWESOME, I only have two old Fred Bear 2216 aluminum arrows right now, I shortened them to match the draw length and Iike I said Awesome, any idea the poundage on the black bands, I'm guessing 30-35 lbs maybe. Excellent work by your Dad, tell him Thank You for me.

  • so if you are fishing with arrows does that require a hunting fishing combo license?

  • Ordered the pocket hunter a few weeks back, tried it out with some Wal-Mart arrows, and I LOVE it! I ordered the 3 piece PH arrows and they came in today along with the pathfinder shelter kit. Tried out the 3 piece arrows, and I LOVE them..This is a great set up Dave. With only 25-30 shots, I am accurate enough to take down a rabbit at 20 yards. My ONLY complaint: $26.60 for shipping on 3 arrows and shelter kit? THAT was outrageous Dave. We need to work on that Bro. Pkg weighed less than 3 lbs..

  • Amazing beard, sir. Just amazing!

  • That's so Damn AWESOME..Gotta get one.

  • damn that bad ass....

  • Not impressed with this shameful self promotion a nine minute commercial for a over priced item u can easily make yourself.

  • Hey Dave's got beard now, this is a cool design Dave. I saw your other vids when you had the Pocket system idea video. Before he was on Dual Survival. Good Job Dave!

    Brian

  • I'm sorry Dave, I can't hear you over the sound of how awesome your beard is.

  • Will this work with Barnett slingshots?

  • How many feet per second does it shoot? Looks slow to me. Will it kill a fish 1 foot under the water? Make a video of how it works and hunting and fishing with it. If it works it will sale it self.Then you want have to do all the fast talking to sale it. I know you will not reply back to me because the bow is to slow to hunt with.

  • looks like a pos

  • Included

    Marksman 3040 slingshot

    Pocket Hunter Adaptor with spool and cap

    Modified Hunting Band installed and 1 spare

    NEW Pathfinder Pocket Hunter Carring Bag

    but no arrow? :(

  • Your father should continue working on it. I'm not impressed. You cannot generate enough velocity with this shooting a arrow. even the last scene shooting the animal, what was that 5-10 feet? give me a break. your better off with a pocket fisherman and a crossman pellet gun. I damn sure wouldent pay 50 dollars for that.

  • so you want to give away 20 defective products.

    typical fast taker = insenser salesman

    

  • man i love you on daul survivel

  • Dave . check out spear gun rubber . 3/8 od 1/8 id . makes the sling bow way faster. thanks again for all the great videos pal . god bless

  • sweet gotta have 1

  • it took me 8 minutes to realize this was one big ad. kept watching anyway

  • When is this comming out made of aluminum? CNC machined? I am a little worried about the plastic long term.  Thanks dave. I just got some arrows from Chief AJ. I think I am going to get your system soon.

  • MUST....HAVE....THIS

  • If Cody buys one, I'll buy one.

  • Well, I was in the market for a nice used compound bow, but after having stumbled across this awesome little devise, I'm having a hard time justifying the compound.

    Awesome.

  • carry extra tubing

  • 3:58! Nice cover up

  • Hello Dave I try to watch all your video's as I find them. I like the pocket hunter.

    tb

  • any1 know the name of music at the start of this promo ?

  • Cool product dave

  • Only thing that puts me off here is the wooden cross around his neck. How can someone as practically minded as this guy believe in mythology and imaginary sky gods?

  • @SissingPyd Live and let live. Peace.

  • @Hoonozit Agreed my friend but I'm still puzzled.

  • i just got my pocket adapter its great, but it came with only one rubber tube,not two like says on the website.

  • That's awesome. Between that and the chinese military super shovel I'd never need anything else... Maybe some pants.

  • how come all the guys in the woods always seem really nice people, i live i the woods lol

  • no it is $40.00

  • I saw this guy at the indy 1500 gun & knife show.

  • ok

  • 50 is a good deal is there any left

  • Very cool, how did I miss this channel all this time? Subscribing......

  • What kind of fish would I use? "Spearfish"?? I got the image also myusernameisluc,,,,,,, wait,,, that's not my user name!!!

  • I'd like to see the fishing accessories made available to crossbow pistols

  • that's a great little product.  you should see about licensing it to the companies who makes those wrist rockets.

  • Dave, see about featuring this at the shot show in vegas next year.

  • what u sound like dave from duel servivle are u

  • @gaygiynickboy Yes he is Dave from duel survival.Best show know to man.

  • A Microbow...I just got my Jollies off!

  • i wan't won how do you get it

  • i am 55 yrs old and when i was a kid we used to shoot arrows from our catapult (slingshot)

  • That is a fine hat, may I ask the make?

  • Subscribed! May be investing in 1 of those systems + arrows a little later in the year Dave, Best wishes from the UK.

  • Dave ive taken one of your basic classes and whatched all your videos and this pocket hunting system is genious. thanks for the vid.

  • SUBSCRIBED

  • what would you say is the maximum effective range with an arrow?

  • I like this invention!

  • Absolutly almost flush! Love it.

  • wow cool system.

  • I like seeing the progress of this slingbow I did like the flipable system that let you still use it as a regular slingshot however it probably had some flaws of dragging on the arrow

  • I just subscribed . This is the epic manly man . LOL

  • Dave you look like a train hopping Hobo , love your videos and tv show . Please tell your tv partner to wear shoes .

  • how much does it cost?

  • @undeadarmy71 $50 to those that watch the video to the end :D

  • @McGuireInK alright where is my $50 lol

  • Hello Mr. Cantebury,

    Im a youth hunter/ survival enthusiast. With my friends, we make a lot of hunting and survival objects thanks to your videos. I built a sapling crossbow on my own with just a pocket knife, but it has some problems. The limbs at the top aren't that great, as they dont pack much power and they also dont bend properly. Could you please make a video on how to make a crossbow? ( I know there already is one about an improvised crossbow, but one made of saplings.)

    Thanks!

  • shoot arrows and fish........

  • I bought one, and can tell you these are quality products, easy to use, and kick some serious butt!!! Every one should have one or two, because my wife takes mine all the time.

  • dave how many men have you killed?

    

  • email me jonesjason71@yahoo.com i want this system

  • pro moment when he realized he put the arrow together wrong

  • @Xxfadedshadows1xX he did say u can use all 3 or 2 sections depending on what kinda draw u want

    so i dont think dave put the arrow together wrong

  • @Xxfadedshadows1xX he recovered it though

  • @Xxfadedshadows1xX i know man wtf make the arrow shorter hahah

  • @Xxfadedshadows1xX yeah then blags his way out of it, lol blag blag blag buy buy buy blag blag blag  lmfao

  • @billynightmare watch his video 'Preping the Sling Bow for a Big Game Hunt' and maybe you'll eat those words

  • @DarkMedievalTimes1 nomnomnomnomnom bla bla bla nomnomnom

  • Comment removed

  • Thanks for the great info and products Dave. My question is: how does this Pocket Hunter Model compare to the Slingbow (molded pvc) modification that you also sell? I know that the pocket hunter has the built in reel and the arrow rest is different, but I am trying to decided between the two...

    Thanks

  • Dave, im a big fan of the show, ive been watching alot of your videos because i fear this year people will have to survive because our internet system will crash and all hell will break loose. with that being said i thank you for your time to put these videos up on youtube so that people like me can learn. p.s. im digging the jeremiah johnson beard!

  • great idea dave. i just cant get it to work. when you spool your line on the "reel" everything is fine until you actually try to fire the arrow. the line does not unroll off the spool it hangs up and the force of the arrow rips the reel right off of the front of the slingshot. seems like the earlier model pvc reels you were making might work better. would love to see a video of you actually shooting this with bankline or dropline

  • Amazing sistem thats all I would need for sure for secure meat.

  • what's next? explode on inpact charges. way cool. best mod. i've ever seen.

  • Dave can talk about something with great articulation, for 10 minutes, without fumbling once, & without a TelePrompter! Gosh Dave, you make these videos look easy! You are many-multi-talented!

  • Damn, I wish braced slingshots are legal in Australia! :(

  • @JarPoL101 I agree

  • @JarPoL101 why are they illegal?

  • @dogbone222 Most projectile weapons here are heavily controlled, funny thing is it is easier to get a gun here than a crossbow. But it really depends on the state, I am from NSW and braced slingshots are illegal here mainly because it's concealable and deadly.

  • @JarPoL101 meh i fight for the common man. I'll fight the enemy on my soil with anything from a stone to an AR

  • @JarPoL101 Jeez, they've banned everything over there it seems. They took your guns and now they won't even allow you to have a slignshot...go figure.

  • @JarPoL101 They are mate. They can be classed as archery strength training aides hee he....

  • @trainman102 hahaha..! you know what I think we can actually pull that off!

  • You don't strike me as anyone who hunts for kicks i.e "hobby hunters" who give us true hunters a bad name. Nice shot btw. I've just started checking out your vids recently,and have picked up a number of great tips and ideas.Thank you

  • this is a pretty awesome invention

  • Awesome stuff

  • Great stuff Dave, but whats the kinetic energy of the impact? Are there not regulations on that when it comes to hunting?

  • @etphonehome2915 you can calculate the kinetic energy of the arrow by following this simply formula.

    KE = 1/2 * m * v ^ 2

    Where m is the mass of the arrow and v is the velocity of the arrow in flight.

  • cool, and thanks :)

  • How are the supplies of these systems as of Januarary 2012, Great video and need some more shows with Cody been waiting lol.

  • i would rethink the reel/storage bottle so you don't have the lid off to use it as a reel or stick it in the arrow holder. Maybe make a lid the screws on with either side.

  • Just a design suggestion. It would be even more useful to have say a wing-nut or similar for quick bolting. Plus it would be even better if you could actually attach it to say one of the arm bar supports, out of the way, so you could always have it with the sling shot while using it normally.

    ....Plus a compass, fish-scaler, and rocket propelled arrows with exploding tips ! :) !

    Kidding about the last part, but the first suggestions could be doable.

    :)

    :P

  • hey dave

    i been dying to ask u where do ur hat

  • tell me again why don't you have your own tv show already? :)

  • @karch76 he does have a tv show its called Dual Survival it on discovery channel

  • Sorry I'm so late watching this but we think that's the best thing sence sliced bread!!! I am asking the same as dgoldman1982 as far as the different draw weights as I am disabled and would love to try your system as opposed to any conventional bow hunting.

  • Very cool. Good job.

  • This is one of the several things I am gonna buy from you next month. Thanks

  • Dave,I want to thank you for all the info and for your service in the military. I served two tours in Viet Nam long ago. But, most of all I want to thank you for taking the time to thank God in your Christmas video. I am enjoying your videos and your TV shows. I hope 2012 is the best year ever for you and your family. Thanks for everything!

  • Dave, you look like a bad ass Santa Claus..

  • @CowboyNovak amen

  • Dave, great videos man. I've been living in Bangladesh for about two years, and your and Cody's show is one that keeps me sane while I'm here (yes, it is shown in Bangladesh too!). Hope you keep doing them, and looks to be a great product you've got here. Keep up all the great work!

  • I really think this should have a whisker biscuit on it.

  • Dave, I like this product and I would like to buy it, but the only thing that is keeping me from buying it is the draw weight on the rubber tubes? You did not mention this in the video. Would you ever toy with idea of making different draw weight tubes?

  • @dgoldman1982 If you cut 1" off it is 42# at 28"

  • @wildernessoutfitters are the tubes already cut 1 inch off the sling bow bands when when order it

  • Dave, just got mine today. WOW. It is great, just got done shooting a few arrows out of it. I love it. Keep up the great work brother.

  • I think that i will wait until you sell em separately, maybe then i can modify it to fit the gloveshot :) grate product sir!

  • Who'd have thought that Dennis the Menace had it figured out all along? LOL. Seriously though, I've used sling shots for years. This is a neat system. I actually tried shooting an arrow I made on the spot with a wrist rocket, and took a rabbit... first try. I'd rather be lucky than good. Keep up the good work Dave. Big fan of Dual Survival as well.

  • What a cool little system. 

  • Just a little life extender tip. Spearfishermen use the same bands for low caliber spearguns. Whether amber(high power) or black bands which last longer. You can store them in the freezer during off season and they will keep from becoming brittle. When you have up to 3 20$ bands on your gun it will help you save some $ and be ready when you need it.

  • nice system i do shoot slingshots and have taken a couple small birds with one using the hunting shot balls you can buy i have also hunted squirrels but this thang looks awesome i wonder if you could rig a stronger one up for big game like deer or turkey?

  • the only problem I got with slingshots is that the rubber tends to go bad a bit too quickly.

    but apart from that the idea is superb =)

  • I wish these were legal in New York (I'm pretty sure they're illegal). It's a good idea, though. It's easy to adapt, too.

  • @Atkrdu leave new york lol

  • I would like to see this fishing adaptation in action. thanks.

  • Whats your Take on River Cane Arrows?

  • lol daves starting too look like old man river hah

  • That is awesome I am curious to see the long term reliability of the system

  • Is the screw a thumbscrew that requires no tools?

  • nice set up

    

  • -__- and I just got my slingbow working...

  • This is really slick Dave !!. I have seen slingshots set up for shooting arrows or darts going back to the 1950's. I seen various versions of adapting a slingshot to shoot fish and to hold fish-line. This looks like one of the best kits I have seen. A well made, compact Purpose-driven design. Well done brother. Kudos to your Dad too..

  • Very cool - ordered mine yesterday, can't wait to get it. Thanks, Dave and team!

  • Ordered mine today....can't believe there were any left! Thanks Dave, Canada loves you...keep up the great work!

  • A truely ingenuitive tool. Well Done.

  • There are a bunch of story's now people taking down bear with these things they have been around for a wile

  • You should keep that grizzly beard for season 3

  • I ordered mine this morning! :-D

  • dave what about if we already have the sling shot i have mine since i was 11 or 10 but i want to buy only the resting arrow ... would you sell them separately???

  • Great video i want 1 but I live in Scotland. Can I purchase 1 ?

  • Great video's Dave!! What's the soundtrack in the beginning??

  • what's the draw weight?

  • I was wondering if you would take control of this situation Dave ! I've seen chee AJ and was wondering Dave should be taking credit for most of this ! I Think the slingshot Bow is Just a Killer Killer Idea especially like you said for kids who can just get after it immediately ! But it isnt just for kids I'm 37 and all over It !!!  Nice Dave and the giveaway well looks like I'm 32,000 to late but Merry Christmas I enjoy all your videos and have learned alot !!!

  • Comment removed

  • hell yea the slingbow i remeber that vid imade one with that as soon as i saw the vidmade one for my boy too

  • Dave ur rockin the beard

  • Holy crap tell your father he is a freakin genius for comin up with that

  • wow dave! youre starting to look like grizzly adams

  • Merry Christmas Dave, I hope you and yours have a peaceful one!

  • Dad's a smart man! That is awesome! What's the draw weight? I want one!

  • I have wanted to carry a bow with me on backpacking

    trips, but they are just too bulky. I am going try this

    as an alternative. Looks like it would work well on

    small game.

  • Once again another great video. Keep up the good work.

  • Great idea that arrow. Somehow i think i have to try to make one arrow myself from aluminium take-apart rifle cleaning rod :)

  • Have you ever taken large game ie: Deer with your slingbow?

  • Damn why can't the 20th get here. I want to order one of these babies badly. Thanks for the great products Dave. The rabbits are thick this year out here in Nevada, can't wait to try it ou.

  • just wanted to say i love all your video's Dave could watch them all day i love learning bushcraft. Wishing you and your family a very merry Christmas.from a Viewer in the U.K

  • Comment removed

  • And I almost forget....will you be selling the takedown arrows separatly??

  • Wow looks awesome!! I had put the whisker biscuit on my wrist rocket but this looks alot better. I look forward to getting one soon. Thanks again man I really appreciate the knowledge you spread!!

  • @bigreeves1188 great idea with the whisker biscuit, very cool

  • Watching Daves Videos makes me feel like making a camp fire right here in my living room!

    Dave You got a real winner here! Hopefully well see these also at major retail.

    Dave seems to be a very humble down to earth guy his thanksgiving vid really shows that. I will definitely buy the Original pocket hunting system.

    Keep up the good work

    Thanks

    Just wondering if parts are made USA?

  • true gent

  • You can shoot arrows and fish? How do you shoot fish?

  • Dave,

    Could you please do a video of it actually being used for fishing? It would be great to see how you use it.

    Ronnie

  • has anybody ever actually brought down a deer with the slingbow?
