      @brandtjustsayin 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I really hate when some dipstick says "this is real hunting and that is not..." I've personnaly hunted from a dug-out in a snow-bank, I've pushed woodlines on public land, spotted-and-stalked, I've sat in trees over scouted trails and water holes, I've sat in ground blinds, and I've hunted from open and enclosed towers over feeders and food plots. I've used rifle, air-gun, bow, and bare hands. I assure you...IT IS ALL HUNTING! Different styles, for different folks, in different parts of the world, under different conditions, hunting different game; but still hunting. Unless your stalking game with a spear or a willow bow strung w/guts slinging sharpened flint you're using a modern advantage to secure a successful harvest and it is still hunting. Only way its not hunting is if it's raised in a pen and led to its slaughter.

      I like how Shane says u smell him, he's been dead for 24 hours. Wish I could have been here yesterday. Remember that it isn't too low as much as it's too far back. The goal is to time the shoulder when walking & slip the arrow in tight behind it. Not barking @ the deer to put it on alert. I really enjoyed this video but it's frustrating to see things that should be instinctive not instinctive @ all.

    Hard to always be perfect…. But these bad shots are stacking up for Ted. Hopefully he can ease up on the buck fever and get dialed in! Great video and a nice recovery effort. That’s half of hunting 🤘

    Ted you’re a savage!! When you moved the camera with your face at full draw it really let us viewers know how much you care about getting the footage!!! Great buck!!

    Amazed me that after 48hrs that the coyotes did not eat his ass out...lucky there... where we live if not found in 12 hours you will only have half a deer.
    Nice Job sticking with it Ted

    Ted last episode: I should've let him keep coming and shot him while he was walking.
    Ted this episode: I probably shouldn't have taken a walking shot
    It's just one of those seasons!

  • @jwainer4397
    @jwainer4397 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video. This one in particular showed me the importance of pre-planning (knowing the area and the availability of trackers), and planning a network of like minded, dedicated people to assist in the harvest. When we speak of confidence, it's not just the best equipment or the amount of target practice. Knowing that you are "not alone" further enables you to take the shot.

  • @TheEverLovingOutdoors
    @TheEverLovingOutdoors 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Thanks for teaching commitment and determination to our younger generation. Most would have given up long before and that would have been a shame. Congratulations TED! You and I have that buck fever down pat. I'm liable to 10 ring one but I'm just as liable to send one to the moon because of those nerves

  • @mtladd4705
    @mtladd4705 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Fantastic! The greatest feeling in the world…when you have all but given up and find your deer nearly randomly. It happened to me on my second biggest whitetail buck a few years ago. Ted was exploding with pure elation. Congrats and well done!

    Quick tip for face paint instead of using the store bought kind wich smells of crayons and is costly use charcoal mashed with a little water it's 100% natural and free and scent free and stays on your face good to. And nice buck buck he's a stud!!

  • @jimmymccracken9702
    @jimmymccracken9702 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Your DADS scent gland did it, Ted you should always hunt on the ground, build your blind from stuff laying around, the charcoal was missing from your face this time, great job, I would tell your grand kids that your bow was soooo hard to pull back that you only had to hit them in the horn and they died of a broken neck, Jim las vegas nv, a trad hunter 80 yrs old, great job

    I am surprised that with any liver hit he was still alive after 24 hours. Hits like this make me curious to see what ranch fairy says about the 3 blade broadheads he is supposed to be testing. Good on you for not giving up and following up until the end.

    Truly shows the power of perseverance....You had a lot of true friends along , in the end only the shooter can call off the search. The stamina of a large buck is amazing...The heavier the bow and the arrow combination is always a plus....A lot of guys "rigs" wouldn't have buried a arrow in the horn like that. Congrats

  • @ja1050
    @ja1050 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Teds last 3 shots 1) missed a buck at 15 yards 2) gut shot a buck at 20 yards 3) hit a buck in the antlers at 30 yards. put down the camera and spend more time practicing shooting than editing and filming . if your gonna be shooting like that then drop the FOC fairy dust and shoot a big expandable

      its calling hunting and not killing for a reason. no matter how much you practice at some point you will always miss or make bad shots. especially on mature bucks. but u must make a perfect shot every time 🤡

    Way to keep at it, Ted! I'd like to see a follow up video of how you guys handle a stinky salvaged deer, what's dog food, what's trophy, and cooking & taste differences between savaged meat vs. fresh. There's no good content on making the best of a bad situation.

      I can barely keep from pissing myself. No idea how some of these dudes accomplish all they have going on while sending the arrow home.
