 Oh, America right there. Welcome back to the channel everybody. Woo hoo hoo, it's after Christmas. I hope you had a merry one. I shouldn't be this excited. I was gonna go fishing today. It was extremely windy though. I kind of got excited when I saw that it was gonna be in the high 60s. It's kind of tradition for me to go fishing either on Christmas day or just right after Christmas, the following few days. Usually I get fishing stuff and I'm like ready to go test it out. I can't stop won't stop fishing for life, baby. Instead this year I got nothing fishing related but I still love to go. However, I do have something special I want to share with you guys and maybe get some more intel from you that I did get for Christmas from LFD. So I'll show you that in a second. I've got something cooking out here I gotta attend to. Ooh, it is windy, windy, windy. I got the whole pot fired up again. It's kind of fun to just sit out here and watch the pot, you know. Is something satisfying about a fire going on in the backyard and you just kind of sit by it and tend to it. But I'm not just sitting here tending to the fire. I am trying to figure out the right formula to bleach my deer skull. A lot of you told me to go follow the white bone creations, I believe is his name. I'd actually already seen some of the videos and I got some of tips from him and I went back and watched more. That guy's like, he's on the ball. He knows what's going on. Anyway, if you wanna learn how to do that, great channel to go follow. He uses some sort of formula that I could not find that he mixes in with his water. I know you guys are probably gonna tell me in the comments the best solution for this. It's gonna be too late at that point so I'm just gonna use what I have here. And I got some peroxide products. You walk into a Sally's beauty supply wearing flannel and a Dagon cowboy hat. You look out of place. I just don't even care anymore though. In fact, I've gone even more or so into the look here with a beard. So what I like to call a beard, it's actually just kind of some random scruff. Kind of like a Mark Wahlberg thing going on, but you know. So I think what we're gonna have to do is cover up the, oh my gosh, this lizard just popped out and he is a Mondeau. Whoa, whoa, buddy. Look at that crazy guy. It's probably a little cold for him. You know what this means? Snakes are out today. It's usually the only time I see those guys, it's pretty warm. First time I saw one of those lizards, I was like, oh my gosh, that's a Dagon water dragon. Escape from a, you know, pet shop. But it's not, they're actually super common. They blend in with the oak trees really good, so they're hard to see, and they had a good hatch this year. Plot of little ones running around. That also just made me realize when I was out by one of my brush piles this morning in the woods area, something was kind of shh doing that. And I was like, I wonder if that's a snake. So they come out on these warm days in the winter time. In fact, the biggest rattlesnake I've ever seen, let me see if I can find a picture of it, came out during a wintry day at deer camp. That's one of the biggest ones I've ever seen though. Jai Mundo. So they're in those hollows, and then it's like some warm weather, and they're like, hey, all right, I'll get a little feed sesh, and then I'll head back in. What's up? Grocery store time. So fun. Amy, you look so cute today. She's in a good mood today. You're looking good, sweetheart. Yes, you do. Although, do I smell something? Oh. Mmm, mommy time. While OSG and Amy are at the grocery store, we're going to boil our deer heads. Actually, it kind of looks cool back here. I had it sitting next to the bass. It was like it was meant to be there. It's just not complete yet. That's okay though. We're gonna put it up on the wall, and I've got something else that OSG got me for Christmas that's helping me along with my project. This isn't the thing I'm gonna show you. I'm sorry. We're going out of order here. Now our router is, that's basically just a bag. That's not what a router looks like. Router's inside the bag. I'll show you guys when it comes time to get on the next step of this thing though, and take my wood and route it out. Very similar to this one right there. Thank you, honey. You're welcome. Love you very much. Got everything, wood, and hunting, and warmth related. Nothing fishy. I think everyone in the family has decided that you probably have everything in fishing now, so we don't know what to get you. We don't really know where to start, so we're just not gonna get you anything. Absolutely nothing professional about that. Oh, that's clear. Let's give the old head a dunk. Just wanna make sure we're not getting the antlers deep up in there. Had that baby soak it in there for a little bit, and it's already starting to whiten up. It should whiten up, I guess. I don't know. There's probably a way better method. You guys are gonna let me know down in the comments. And please do. This is just my first one. Okay, so this right here is a case. Nothing special about the case. Inside is a shotgun that is way older than me, and most likely you. This is a Remington Model 11. Some of you might know it as a humpback shotgun. Now this isn't the original humpback. Browning made the original humpback shotguns, and I believe they sold the patent to Remington so they could also manufacture something similar. So the humpbacks were just such a reliable style of shotgun that were used in the military and used by tons of outdoorsmen. I've never had a brand new high-end shotgun. I've always had older shotguns, kinda newer, lesser-in-pump shotguns. Now honestly, they all work fine for me, but having something like this that has a lot of history and a story to it, it's just cool to shoot. And my dad actually, he got two of them the last two years. He got a 16 gauge, and then he got a 12 gauge. We had a great time dove hunting with him this year and the year before. I cannot wait to get this out there and go dove hunting with it, y'all. And there actually is a Texas dove winter season going on right now. So I'm gonna have to go with LFD and go do this. Now if you look at the front of the shotgun, that is pretty crazy. At first when I saw this, I thought it was some sort of like aftermarket thing that someone had put on, but this is actually an original that came with the shotgun. It's a compensator that has a choke holder in it. So you can change your chokes out. This one has a medium choke and I just ordered a short range choke as well for it. It's crazy, you can actually see through that right there. So I guess the LOD just keeps its pattern and goes all the way through there and then it expands when it comes out but it just looks strange. It looks like it would expand before it gets to that other hole there, but that's just nuts. This isn't like it's a super rare shotgun but I would say it's definitely in good condition for how old it is. My dad was traveling, he does a lot of traveling for work. He likes to go to pawn shops. We definitely went to pawn shops when I was a kid. Anyways, he came across this gun at a pawn shop, saw it and it matched his other Remington humbacks that he had and he thought it'd be cool to get me one for Christmas. So thank you LFD. This is a really, really cool gun and awesome gift. So the way Remington does their information on the shotguns, their dating, they put symbols, numbers and everything on the barrel. It's self so you can figure it out. This one has a D-R-R. Put it right there on the barrel and then there's a symbol. That symbol is the symbol for the person that inspected it at the time that had their own symbol. The D stands for September and the R-R stands for 1946. So the shotgun is from 1946 and it still feels really good. Of course I have not shot it yet. It's got that classic pheasant and duck on the other side. It only takes two and three quarter inch shells so this is definitely gonna be like a dove coil. Maybe pheasant. If I ever go pheasant hunting shotgun, I'm not gonna take this goose hunting or anything like that. And I wouldn't take it out on the water either just cause I wouldn't want to get this old shotgun in the water. The wood still is nice. It's got some scratches on it but it feels really solid. Just a really well built gun man. So look out for a dove hunting video taking this guy out. I did one video with my dad earlier this year taking the humpbacks out and a lot of you seem to love it so I want to see how this compensator slash choke system works. Should be fine. You still working? Come on. Did I just break my camera? This is Jon Sword telling where it's been. I mean you can't have a samurai sword at the house and then not cut some fruit with it. You know, do some fruit ninja. I got to take that back to Jon so I just had to get that out of my system mom. I've got a special venison treat that I've been letting marinate in some cinnamon sticks and cider and oranges for 24 hours. And I'm gonna throw that on the grill and I'm out of charcoal which I'm gonna need. Look who's here to greet me. Miss B. Hey girl. Hey there girl. Little table top. Yeah. Wiggles. Wiggles. Wiggles. I was just showing the Fish and Freaks the humpback. Found a short range choke for it as well. I'm no kid. Yeah. You ordered? I did. Found it on eBay. That is the original compensator and choke system that came from Remington but there are three different ones. There's a long range, medium and short. So little dove popping. Pshh. Pshh. Looks like the gals are back with groceries. I better carry up some groceries first before I get my grill going or I could get in trouble. I think it's time to take this guy out. Hey. Looking definitely wider. Got that little patch up there that didn't quite get it. So I'm gonna use that other solution on the top but I'd say that looks pretty good. We'll let that dry do its thing right there. That is the head part. That's the part that some people get super excited about. That is the head portion there. Everyone gets excited about the head portion but really what we should get excited about is the meats. What is that right there? Is that you? You're looking at yourself. Oh, gotta do the little bouncy dance. Take a little walk and it's fine. Little jingles and bounces. It's getting so bad that like whenever she starts crying I'm not holding her. I'm still over here bouncing. I know. Sometimes you're just doing this. It's like muscle memory. Inside of this hole. These backstrap beauties have been soaking for over 24 hours. And they look just soaked up with juices. I've got a very good feeling about this. As the golden sunset hits my face. No, I can't see you. Oh, America right there. Full of cinnamon stick in there. Hoo. And one more. I fished him out. There we go. OSG's got taters and spinach to go as sides. Never tried this recipe. We're gonna try it together, see if it works. Super simple though. All I did was slice up an orange, squeezed it. I actually used some of the leftover cider juice. Stephanie made some cider. Put some of that in there. Put a cinnamon stick in there. That's about it. Plop presentation. OSG's gonna just be proud of me. Pluck that little cinnamon stick. Boom. There's just something about fire and wild game that makes you feel alive. I don't know if you've ever done it. But it is something that every person needs to do. It's like igniting the primal spirit within. Look at that. Juicy. I think I cut them a little too thin. They look a little small. But that's perfect for me. That is for white tapes. Look at that. And that was sitting in cider, I mind you. That was your idea. I give you all the credit to that. Look at that. That's how nice I am. You feed the critters? I feed, who wants some oranges? I won't, no. That's gonna be one lucky raccoon. I hope that coyote actually comes in. I hope he bites that orange and it's like steamy hot. It just singes his mouth for everyone's to come back in my yard again. Okay now, honey. Here you go. Here's your venison bite. Cider, what should we call this? Where do you take a bite? Spiced cider venison backstrap. That's way too long. Mm, that tastes the cider in that. Do you, how's the tenderness? I think it tastes the orange actually. Cause you know, backstraps are tough a lot of times. You know, it's pretty tender, it's very. It looked tender. It also could be the deer, you know. They say, depending on how you kill them. I taste it. The seeds up. It should be some sugar in there. Citrus, the citrus breaks down the meat, makes it a little bit more tender as well. Right there. Ooh, dear goodness. Mm-hmm. Oh, jackpot money. That's good. That is good. I cooked it just right too. I think I might put this on healthy chew. Oh yeah. Do I get some props? Do you remember what you did? Cause this was all you, this was not me. I literally just slapped some leftover cider in there. Two head cooking on the stove, some cinnamon sticks. Squeeze some fresh orange juice in there. Mm. Look at those slices. Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm. That was good. Dear goodness. You did a good thing. I actually like any kind of deer with like a citrusy thing, like pineapples, jerk style, it's all a little good. All right, there we go. Not chewy, absolutely delicious. And that was over 24 hours of marinating. I think that made a huge difference too. That's a big outdoorsman win right there, guys. Now when I complete this year amount, I'm probably gonna think more about the delicious backstraps off that deer more so. The actual hunt. Think I just spit stuff up my head. Seven for later. So if you wanna try a new recipe out, I would give that one a double thumbs up. I can't really use my thumbs, it's holding the camera, but double. Thank you guys for hanging with me today. I'm gonna go, I'm gonna enjoy this awesome dinner with beautiful OSGE and little Amy that's being such a good girl over there. Don't forget to subscribe to the channel right here cause you might just get another amazing recipe or some fun fact of life that could help you. I hope wherever you are, and have a blessed day in the outdoors y'all, and I'll see ya next time.
