Cole Seitzinger Stealth Hunting PA. I am obsessed with bowhunting Whitetails, grew up following my dad along with my older brother into the hunting world. I have been a part of the Flat Line Whitetails Team as Pro Staff for over a year now.
Ever since before I could hunt though a video camera was being used to document hunts with my family and friends. I have a passion for only Bow hunting for Whitetails even during rifle season. Cole Seitzinger Stealth Hunting PA
Flatline Whitetails started up about two years ago
Flatline Whitetails started up about two years ago, and I have been on their pro staff for currently just over one year. I met the owners, Tyler and Nick Kravitz, and from there, I pretty much fell in love with the concept of what they were doing. They wanted to do videography, and share their stories through social media and online. Cole Seitzinger Stealth Hunting PA
So I joined the pro staff to be a part of this team, and since joining, it has just been great. The camaraderie at the team, we all get along. And since I joined, it is definitely up to my level of hunting, as far as whitetail goes. What I do for them then is just film my story and my hunt, and we share it with the rest of the world, hopefully that people can learn, and we learn from each other. It's really been great.

I'd like to be in the outdoor industry
, "Gee, I'd like to be in the outdoor industry. Gee, I'd love to be in the pro staff." Quote unquote, and I'm putting the quotes up, "You know, I get free stuff," which you really don't, because you work hard for whatever you get. And what's some advice that you would give them, guys or gals, if they really want to be a pro staffer?
Cole: If they really want to do it in the outdoor, each and every one of us, we work 40 hours-plus a week for a living. So we're doing what we love, and we're sharing it with everyone else. Making a living in the outdoor world is another side of it. I mean, obviously a lot of people love to do that and want to get to that point, so the advice I would give is just to work hard and keep doing what you love. Talk to everyone you meet, and introduce yourself to new people, and make new friends, and just ride it out and see how it goes. The harder you work, the more you're going to be rewarded in the end.
So the season started off great.
The opening day, early season in September, I had a decent I'd say about 110-inch eight-pointer come right under my tree, and I opted to pass him, and throughout the whole season I had passed three or four more buck, which was something I hadn't done a whole lot in the past. Leading into fall then, I had continued to get pictures of this buck. I only had three tree stands on my 10-acre property, one up high, one in the middle, and one down low. It took all the way through archery season.
I never got a shot at that buck. I had seen him one morning, and it was right at first light. I was opting to take a shot at him, and he turned off the trail just beforehand, which actually played in my favor, because the camera lighting for videoing that morning would've been very poor.
Archery season ended, and actually, in our zone where I hunt, it stays open all the way through rifle season. So statewide archery had ended, and I continued to hunt all the way through into rifle season, which would take us into December. In December then, opening day of rifle season, as I have for the last several years, I take my bow out. I don't pick up a gun to chase these deer. I just find it more rewarding to go after them with a bow.
And I have attempted many times to shoot a buck, a mature buck, in rifle season with my bow. I've gotten close in the past, but failed most of the time.
So the first Saturday of rifle season,
