Donny always has the best reactions. It’s awesome how every elk he shoots he reacts like it’s his first. A true hunter. Never expects to get one and is excited when he is successful.
Donnies sigh of relief is so relatable. I know that he didn’t sleep much that night and when he finally saw the bull you could see the tension leave his body. Thanks for keeping it real!
Corey - "we will find him, we always do" Donny - "we will look all day if we have to" - Love that attitude when a less than perfect shot is put on an animal!
I have never been much for watching hunting shows and have only used TH-cam for short clips and reviews; but after Elk101 helped me pull an elk out of a left over tag with more hunting pressure than I've ever seen I figured I'd check out the rest of your content. Going on 6 days off binging every season and I can't get enough. You guys really helped take the mystery out of it, even for a life long hunter. Keep up the great work!
I really appreciate how you don’t rush to the kill. You do a great job of showing the commitment and patience it takes to even have an opportunity for a shot.
Nice bull Donnie, congrats on the difficult recovery. My whole family was on the edge of our seats, 12 yo son broke the silence and yelled shoot it! We were all relieved when Dale found the bull.
You guys never disappoint me. You two were meant to hunt together. I hope you guys realize that. Thanks for letting me tag along with you. I feel like I am your camera man because I watch all your videos and listen to all your podcasts. Because of that I save myself a lot of mistakes and I am a more successful hunter. The next best thing to elk hunting is tagging along with you guys in the off season.
It is great to see you both being successful on back to back episodes. It is amazing how you two work together and get it done. It is also awesome to see you both stay positive when everything doesn’t work out. Thank you for all that you guys do for the hunting industry and also for everyone that are already elk hunters or people that are just trying to get into elk hunting and learning.
There is so much that I like watching the different years. I’ve learned so much, been encouraged from all the struggles, and picked up little tips and tactics. The thing I like the best might be Donnie’s reactions...always so pure and heartfelt. Keep it up!
Thank you guys for expressing the importance of leaving the bull and backing out even when it’s so tempting to look for him. I’m reminded or learn something new from you guys all the time.
Your knowledge of the internal organs and time to expire amaze me. Definitely an area I need to study more so I know when to track and when not to track for the fear of bumping them.
My husband had to wait overnight to finish following the blood trail to find his elk. Most tense night I have seen him have, but made finding his elk the next day so rewarding.
Lemon Oreos!?? 🤮🤣. Great job guys, great recovery!! 👍. I’m a 60 year old, Disabled Veteran!! 🇺🇸(61 next Sunday! Actually Leap Year, but the 28th this year!! 🤷♂️😉) Love your program! 🙏. Was ALWAYS an avid Hunter, but am just getting capable of doing it again!! 👏. Your show gets the hunger peaking!! 👍. I’ve now Hunted only, since I was 19!! 😁. Shoot monsters with a rifle up until then, so went to a bow for the challenge and REWARD!!! 😉. I ALWAYS say, “Bow hunting is about SURE THINGS and SHOULD’VE BEENS!!”🤭🥴😳. Right!?? 👍. I’m playing catch up, whatever episode it was?? Donnie, Great Klepto joke!! 🤭😂😂😂😂😂. Corey, love your great attitude and your calling skills etc... blah blah blah, ok enough mushy stuff!! 😂. Ahem..How bout those Atlanta Braves!?? 🤷♂️ Lol 😂
Wind seems like everything that can make or break a stalk. Something that I sometimes forget to keep into account, these videos have been a good reminder.
After watching your daily episode, my two boys and I play elk hunting where one of us is the caller, one is the shooter, and the other is the big bull. There's nothing cuter then watching my one-year-old come in bugling, then run off after being shot and playing dead until you find him, count his points, and get a picture. Thanks for bringing the sounds of September into our house all year long.
Great team effort on this hunt. Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge on how to hunt elk the right way. I’m learning a ton watching these videos. Congratulations Donnie.
Thats awesome you found him. I've had two lose blood trail on and never found. Which breaks my heart. I love that feeling of accomplishment thought and his face was priceless.
You guys do the right thing even when it means long restless nights. It makes this series a lot more enjoyable then the guys that barge in and jump them and never recover.
Glad to see I wasn’t the only one struggling to call elk into range in 2020. When Corey struggles something was going on out of our control. Excellent tracking job. I also had the good fortune of using an Ebike for my 2020 elk packout.
We would love to see more of your preseason target practice and preparation. Maybe even a section in UEH on archery practice and real tips on how to execute a shot in the moment of truth. Donnie and Corey both do excellent at putting the arrow exactly where it needs to be. Congrats Donnie!
Glad to see you comment on when it is appropriate to back out and when it is not. It is highly dependent upon the situation like you said, yet I often see people tell folks to back out and let it sit overnight. I have settled that I usually don't let anything sit overnight if I can avoid it [or at least until I locate it and confirm it is still alive - then decide if it is appropriate to back out or just sit down and wait]. To me it is driven by doing the right thing and the fact that if something is dead and sits over night here [North East], it is usually shredded by coyotes come morning. Agreed that there are times to back out and times to grit it out. Thank you for acknowledging that it is all dependent upon the situation. Awesome stuff... thanks for putting these put.
Another great episode and hunt. Tracking an animal can be difficult. I have often found that they circle back on themselves which can make it even more difficult. I know what the stress and anxiety you go through waiting over night! Been there and been lucky to find them like you did. I much prefer a quick fall death rather than a hundred or two yard run and die.
The true expressions that Donnie has when the adrenaline is released after he shoots is so awesome!! You just know that elk hunting is a real passion that he loves.
"So your telling me there's a chance?" I'm feeling lucky. Let's go Destination Elk V3. Love the content guys. As in past years after airing, its a family activity in our household.
Destination V3 was a great season 👍👍. Corey and Donnie, you guys did an amazing job putting out some really good content. Keep up the good work guys!!!
I had a similar situation on a bull in 2020. Backed out for the night and came back in the next morning. To my surprise he was still alive! Fortunately the conditions were good and I was able to get another arrow in him. At 20 years old with limited experience in this situation, I owe that Bull ALL To ELK 101! Awesome video and motivator for a guy like me! 💪🏻💪🏻
Keeping at it and always looking forward is a must in life and to chase or be chased in the wild is a must for my brain , stay at it and live the videos and tactics you bless us with, stay strong on the rocky ridge
Donnie...way to go! Not pushing an animal subprimely hit is great way to help instruct newer hunters. Those bike pack outs are seriously looking like a winning method. Good hunt!
Backing out snd waiting till morning smart move. Went thru a similar situation 3 years back Sleepless night but found him at first light 400yards away. Great job guys.
I had a very similar experience, the bulls were coming in but only to 100 yards. Tough closing that distance! Great video. Keep getting after it fellas!
New to hunting. Getting into it in my mid-thirties and bringing my 12 year old along for the ride. Just took out my first Blacktail buck with a bow this past season. Looking forward to elk this year!

Here we go! Just finished my workout of “Diddly Squats” and ready to watch the guys go to work. And hear Donnies dad jokes of course. Hahaha
Donnies sigh of relief is so relatable. I know that he didn’t sleep much that night and when he finally saw the bull you could see the tension leave his body. Thanks for keeping it real!
The number one thing I love about Elk101 is you guys show the truth behind elk hunting and not just the success. Keep at it!
Donnie’s reaction...priceless!!! Then pure relief when the bill was found! You guys are awesome!
Love seeing Donnie getting it done and finally talking a little after the hunt
Corey - "we will find him, we always do" Donny - "we will look all day if we have to" - Love that attitude when a less than perfect shot is put on an animal!

Thanks for sharing guys. The way that shot played out is nerve racking. Good job tracking it down! Thanks again.
Thanks for the "when to leave it" tutorial. Always a concern of mine during evening hunts. You broke it down into easy to decide factors.
Seeing the title of the episode made me even more excited to watch it! Love Donnie’s reactions! Congrats!
I really appreciate how you don’t rush to the kill. You do a great job of showing the commitment and patience it takes to even have an opportunity for a shot.
Nice bull Donnie, congrats on the difficult recovery. My whole family was on the edge of our seats, 12 yo son broke the silence and yelled shoot it! We were all relieved when Dale found the bull.
Winning a prize for commenting is like drawing a sheep tag it never happens but i keep trying ! it reminds me of you guy's hunting never give up ;)
My hopes were so high last year😢
😂
Thanks for another awesome episode. Donnies mohawk never gets old
Ya, or trying to draw a tag in Washington
@@mjk8564 ,
Every outdoorsman who has harvested an animal knows exactly how Donnie feels!

I can sit down and relax after a hard day and relax with these videos
Dad joke for Donnie, “why did the Oreo go to the dentist”? Because he lost his filling LOL
That's a pretty good one imo
We really appreciate this clean wholesome series. We can watch as a family and don’t have to worry about language or anything inappropriate Thank you.
Language is made up. It can’t hurt you. Words aren’t bad.
I wish the E bikes were more affordable, they look like a huge asset.
You guys never disappoint me. You two were meant to hunt together. I hope you guys realize that. Thanks for letting me tag along with you. I feel like I am your camera man because I watch all your videos and listen to all your podcasts. Because of that I save myself a lot of mistakes and I am a more successful hunter. The next best thing to elk hunting is tagging along with you guys in the off season.
Happy Valentines Day to everyone. Hope you get it done Donnie. Getting ready to make the wife Valentines dinner. Elk steak and lobster
Quote of the episode...”My bugle brings all the bulls to the yard”. I see what you did there. Lol. #SoWeContinue

Donnie you are awesome! Love the elk action!
Very nice Larry! Thank you so much for supprting our veterans! God bless you brother! Gb
Your knowledge of the internal organs and time to expire amaze me. Definitely an area I need to study more so I know when to track and when not to track for the fear of bumping them.
Congrats Donnie!!! That mohawk’s working for you!!
Love to watch you guys persevere through good days, bad days, no blood trails and everything else.
Congrats Donnie! Glad it was cold that night, that makes for a long night!
It really shows how much fun you can have hunti g with the right people. You and Donny are the best
My husband had to wait overnight to finish following the blood trail to find his elk. Most tense night I have seen him have, but made finding his elk the next day so rewarding.
Great shot Donnie!!! Glad you found him. I do need a new bow...
Lemon Oreos!?? 🤮🤣. Great job guys, great recovery!! 👍. I’m a 60 year old, Disabled Veteran!! 🇺🇸(61 next Sunday! Actually Leap Year, but the 28th this year!! 🤷♂️😉) Love your program! 🙏.

Good shot and good call waiting a night
Great series; learning a lot
Wind seems like everything that can make or break a stalk. Something that I sometimes forget to keep into account, these videos have been a good reminder.
Nice Bull! Those tight quartering shots are risky. Having the latest, greatest bow sure helps. Speaking of a new bow... hint hint!
After watching your daily episode, my two boys and I play elk hunting where one of us is the caller, one is the shooter, and the other is the big bull. There's nothing cuter then watching my one-year-old come in bugling, then run off after being shot and playing dead until you find him, count his points, and get a picture. Thanks for bringing the sounds of September into our house all year long.
Donnie, your emotion is awesome. Truly your passion for hunting is on full display.
love this video just brings up that drive that comes from within And Don did not wait( just draw and shot.)
The relief on Donnies face says it all.
Donnie's bringing the heat with the dad jokes this season! Nice shot Donnie and I'm glad you found your bull early the next morning.
Love Donnie’s reaction! Good learnings on shot placement for quartering to shooter.
Really enjoyed the episode fellas. Keep it up!!
Great team effort on this hunt. Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge on how to hunt elk the right way. I’m learning a ton watching these videos. Congratulations Donnie.
Thats awesome you found him. I've had two lose blood trail on and never found. Which breaks my heart. I love that feeling of accomplishment thought and his face was priceless.
Congrats Donnie! Nice bull and good recovery!
You guys do the right thing even when it means long restless nights. It makes this series a lot more enjoyable then the guys that barge in and jump them and never recover.
You guys do a great job chronicling the journey of elk hunting! Donnie's dad jokes are on point this yr!
Great hunting partners make for great experiences, even when tags aren't filled. Love the partnership at elk101.
“When in doubt back out” Nice n cold too. Genius move. Donnie didn’t need any sleep anyway. Lol
Appreciate the attitudes you both display; what a great example for other hunters--new and old.
Impressive shot! That angle always intimidates me. Loving the series, thank you!!
That bull came in quick! It’s fun to see the emotions of the hunt. Reminds us of our own successes. 👌
Glad to see I wasn’t the only one struggling to call elk into range in 2020. When Corey struggles something was going on out of our control. Excellent tracking job. I also had the good fortune of using an Ebike for my 2020 elk packout.
Now that’s how you yard a bow back quick! Donnie’s reactions are priceless!
We would love to see more of your preseason target practice and preparation. Maybe even a section in UEH on archery practice and real tips on how to execute a shot in the moment of truth. Donnie and Corey both do excellent at putting the arrow exactly where it needs to be. Congrats Donnie!

The look of pure relief when his bull was found. That feeling is so good.
Glad you men found the bull, those are gut wrenching times searching. We had one of those days on my daughter's first bull this year!
Nothing worse than the feeling you have when you have to wait for them to expire. Nice bull Donny
Another great episode and hunt. Tracking an animal can be difficult. I have often found that they circle back on themselves which can make it even more difficult. I know what the stress and anxiety you go through waiting over night! Been there and been lucky to find them like you did. I much prefer a quick fall death rather than a hundred or two yard run and die.
Donnie's reaction to draw back the bow back that quick, made me feel like I would pull a muscle trying to draw that quick lol
Always an awesome feeling when you crack a tough blood trail!
The true expressions that Donnie has when the adrenaline is released after he shoots is so awesome!! You just know that elk hunting is a real passion that he loves.
Every elk for Donnie is like his first. Love your content guys. The best on TH-cam.
I feel your relief on finding that bull. No blood trail for tracking is tough work. Glad to see the effort and that it worked out. Nice job Donnie!!!
"So your telling me there's a chance?" I'm feeling lucky. Let's go Destination Elk V3. Love the content guys. As in past years after airing, its a family activity in our household.
Destination V3 was a great season 👍👍. Corey and Donnie, you guys did an amazing job putting out some really good content. Keep up the good work guys!!!
Cory’s reactions to Donnie’s dad jokes are one of my favorite parts of the episodes!
I like how you decided to back out and track more the next morning.
Great elk hunt. I kept trying to peak over Donnie's shoulder on the first bull. Thank you for the great content. Now lets head out to the "Party"
I had a similar situation on a bull in 2020. Backed out for the night and came back in the next morning. To my surprise he was still alive! Fortunately the conditions were good and I was able to get another arrow in him. At 20 years old with limited experience in this situation, I owe that Bull ALL To ELK 101! Awesome video and motivator for a guy like me! 💪🏻💪🏻
The perseverance is an inspiration - my lack of calling is a hindrance - that great of a caller “still” working that hard is dedication!
Fantastic hunt !
Love watching your videos and great tips. I’m going to keep watching Destination Elk
Keeping at it and always looking forward is a must in life and to chase or be chased in the wild is a must for my brain , stay at it and live the videos and tactics you bless us with, stay strong on the rocky ridge
Great teamwork. Donny, as you said, it is important to know "when to draw the line". Love it!
It's always a relief when you're able to find, and recover, game that's gone a ways after the shot. Congrats!
Man... those are the most stressfull times, been there a few too many times myself! glad to see you came out on the bright side of it!!
Donnie...way to go! Not pushing an animal subprimely hit is great way to help instruct newer hunters. Those bike pack outs are seriously looking like a winning method. Good hunt!
Good call on backing out and letting him lay for the night. Glad you guys made the recovery!
Thank you Cory and Donnie for just an incredible hunt!!!
That first bull on the road was thinking about it but probably heard to many dad jokes!!! Beautiful animal
Classic Donnie! 🤣 Great teamwork guys! Glad you foundem. Those bikes sure make an easy pack out 😍🙌🏼
Great dad jokes !
I love the videos. I look forward to watching them whenever I can. Love the drive and fortitude to keep going and not give up
Backing out snd waiting till morning smart move. Went thru a similar situation 3 years back Sleepless night but found him at first light 400yards away. Great job guys.
Awesome hunting and footage, watching these will never get old!
I feel like Donnie doesn't get enough credit for he's dad jokes. Great episode. Hunting was tough this year.
I’ll be honest I’m new to the channel and gotta say I’m hooked love the tips and strategy’s
These episodes are so helpful!
I had a very similar experience, the bulls were coming in but only to 100 yards. Tough closing that distance! Great video. Keep getting after it fellas!
Absolutely love the passion and details you guys share in your videos! Keep up the great work!
New to hunting. Getting into it in my mid-thirties and bringing my 12 year old along for the ride. Just took out my first Blacktail buck with a bow this past season. Looking forward to elk this year!
Love those bikes awesome tool hope to get one someday
Great video, I like how at the end you gave other scenarios where you would not stop tracking at night. The contrast was helpful, thank you.
Destination Elk - making treadmill time more tolerable, one episode at a time. Thanks!
You guys make strategic plans so fast and make it look so first nature I love it great job guys!
