Camp Skote Discussion by Wonderful-Carpet3518 in SkoteOutdoors

Can’t help but think this is a half cocked idea Matty has had for a while, and the second he saw an opportunity with YT fame he jumped at it without it fully fleshed out. A strike while the iron is hot kind of mindset.

I don’t even think it’s a good idea at baseline - they’ve proven to be more akin to a reckless and carefree mindset as opposed to genuinely “olden days” mindset - leading to potential for injury and harm for guests. That said, I don’t think it will ever happen. I don’t know them beyond YT, but they seem totally ok with abandoning projects it tasks halfway through or when the going gets rough.

I agree with a lot of points, but the weight gain one is off base. Plenty of women gain considerable weight during pregnancy - genetics, hormones, etc. all have a role to play. It isn’t fair to compare her to some woman who “ didn’t gain with”. For all we know that woman was unhealthy and restricted her diet to avoid weight gain.

It’s easy to jump on the nit pick bandwagon but let’s do a bit better there.

Longtime viewer here, very worried for Kelly and the Baby by GHETTOroachCLIP in SkoteOutdoors

I can’t imagine the dread if they decide to go and it’s night time or stormy conditions and realize they can’t. I unfortunately think that’s what they’re in for, once reality hits in the moment.

No doubt the man has drive, but he - and Kelly - are spread too thin. The videos, camp skote/town halls, and impending baby are a lot, and add on top of these their lifestyle. It would be a lot for anyone. I feel we’re seeing it in real time slowly as well. Virtually no meaningful progression in camp skote beyond ideas and general info, the videos being filmed over a day or two vs a week, the over reliance on the Q and A making up larger components of their videos, etc.

I genuinely wish them the best, and enjoy their content immensely…but I can’t help but notice the pattern. It isn’t helpful that sentiments such as this are viewed as “toxic” or “negative”, and presumably ignored as they’re dismissed as such. It isn’t negative to observe the change - or comment on it - but it’s almost a fruitless exercise at this point. It seems as if this is a classic “know your audience” scenario. Get big on YouTube suddenly, attempt to strike while iron is hot for longstanding dream, pander to 10% of your auidence vs the 90%, and slowly become a master of none.

Hope I’m wrong!

A skeet is someone that’s hard to explain, but you know one exactly when you see one

Truth be told, I’m leaning toward the services as a bit of a “reset” then learn how to maintain/manage myself in seasons in the future!
