- On this episode, Clay Newcomb explores the Folsom archeological site in Folsom, New Mexico where the archeological world was turned upside down in 1925. Clay visits the Folsom Museum where he learns about the former slave, George McJunkin’s involvement in finding the bones from museum curator, Matt Doherty. Clay then takes a tour of the Folsom site with the world’s foremost expert on Folsom, Dr. David Meltzer of SMU. Ultimately, Tony Soares makes Clay a Folsom replica point which he takes back to Arkansas to use on a bear hunt.

My Dad made me stone points for my Handmade Osage Long Bow when I was 12. I bagged a 4 point buck. I am 67 now. I love this story and it makes me proud to use primitive archery.
That osage orange is harder than common core math
Awesome to hear
Epic and sacred ❤
My first ever deer I shot was with a traditional wood bow I made myself
@@Wahatoyas epic af xxxx
My new favorite mini series. Combining hunting with history and archaeology. I can’t wait for more episodes!
You said it! We'd like more Bear Grease, please and thank you!!!
It’s pretty awesome
I love this so much. Plz make 800 episodes. There's nothing else I need to be watching. It grabs me by the soul.
Easily my favorite video from any meateater production, ever. For many reasons, can't wait to see more stuff like this.
This show needs to be required for most wildlife and humanities courses. This is how you get people interested and involved with archeology and history without politics.
I love what clay is doing with this series. Truly look forward to each of these episodes.
This is probably the most inspirational and wholesome pure thing on the internet. Thank you clay and meat eater for doing this epic work!!!!
Huge agree
This has to be one of your best episodes yet. To look into the past and then actually use what you've learned on a hunt, Mr Newcomb, you are the epitome of a steward for hunting and conservation.
Wonderful presentation. Many larger mainstream videos about these topics miss out on the smaller details but you got it all here. I am especially happy that you showed how deadly and efficient this technology really was with that bear kill. Bravo!!
Did you ever get a deer with one of the points you made on your channel?
@@Steve-ev6vx I have not hunted with them yet, hard to hunt more than one weekend since I am in university
I have watched thousands of hunting videos!!! This is one of the best. But of course, it's clay Newcomb. Everything the man does is gold!!! Fantastic series!!!
Amazing imo
Clay's storytelling carries warmth and humility. Thanks for taking us on your journey and weaving this centuries-old story into some great entertainment.
Well said JD collins!
Steven once again proves he is the best ambassador the hunting conservation community has.
Very nice!
When I first watched Meateater several years back, I was captivated by Rinella and his ability to capture and put into words the respect for the land and all the life it supports, and how genuine he is at addressing the human condition of working hard to obtain food from the land. I remember thinking back then, I don’t think there will ever be anyone as good at communicating that wisdom and respect and sincerity as Steve. Clearly I was wrong in thinking that. Clay and The Bear Grease podcast has been just as sincere and genuine, and this show is equal, in my eyes, to The Meateater in all aspects. Thanks for the inspiration Man.
I was just out in Folsom, New Mexico, and the Raton area last year for a Pronghorn hunt. Harvested a beautiful antelope and got to learn a lot of the cool history there. I was at that same museum. Great memories. I hope I get the opportunity to go back. It's like a step back in time
I drive fuel tankers, spend about 10 hrs a day bored in my truck, listened to one "bear grease" episode and got hooked. I went back & listened to literally every episode, one of my favorites. Great story telling with really interesting topics.
Great to see a more traditional angle on MeatEater.
Huge agree
Bear Grease is the best thing since sliced bread. Keep it up!
Clay Newcomb is fast becoming my favorite hunter to watch! The passion with which he presents his stories makes for great entertainment. You know he Genuinely cares about his place and ours in the natural world. The poise with all those bears around was awesome to see as well, Keep em comin man!
Man this show is pure gold and a cherry on top of the podcast. Just makes me want to go back and listen to the associated podcast episodes again
I love Clay and his passion for hunting and hunting history.
Awesome film. Really enjoy Clay's enthusiasm for long-forgotten tales of incredible outdoorsmen.
You're the best Clay! thanks as always for the wisdom, insight, and respect for the nature and wilderness. Praying for a safe year of fun and adventure for you and your family.
This series has quickly become my favorite. I really enjoy old timey US history, archeology, and of course, hunting. Well done and I look forward to many more episodes!
Yall need to give the hunt primitive TH-cam channel a show
Outstanding new series! Coming from one of my absolute favorite podcasts this Bear Grease Roadshow is a fantastic addition, not many people can tell a story like Clay! You are NOT gonna wanna miss this one!!
History and MeatEater, this is insanely good.
Clay Newcomb can sure tell a story from the soul. Would be awesome to hunt with him.
South tx here! Been digging arrowheads most my life, it’s a weekly tradition. Now my kids are old enough and frequently join me.
Have you thought about recording them with the THC? I don't know a lot about the laws in Texas, and I assume you mean collecting on private land, but they do have an Archaeological Stewardship Network program for volunteers.
@@IvanIvanoIvanovich yes sir, all legal here in Texas to dig private property. The only artifact I found worth documenting was a brass Spanish trade gorget, to local tribes. I’m currently working with an archaeologist to do proper documentation as well. I’ve never found any Folsom culture artifacts, however I’ve found a couple broke Clovis projectile points.
@@lucaspeterson8701 That's awesome! I think we all hope for a Clovis in our career so congrats! The Spanish presence in Texas is so fascinating too. I was working out in Southern Oklahoma/North Texas and had my fingers crossed to find anything related to the Battle of the Two Villages since we were in the Spanish Fort area.
BEST Meat Eater episode ever.
Can’t get enough of Clays history telling. Love the Bear Grease pod cast and now this series compliments it perfectly! The production of Meat Eater and its amazing crew is next level.
It’s amazing we live in a time when we have this learning experience at our finger tips. Thank you guys for all your hard super quality work your giving us!
Just love this guy. Have listened to him for ages on MeatEater podcast. He’s a real inspiration. A proper-good-man.
This was easily one of my most favourite and entertaining videos I've seen all year!
Mr. Newcomb. This is a very important video that shows us our past. Thank you and all the Meat Eater crew. One of the very best anyone has shown us of our past.
Probably THE best vlog on the internet of a bear hunt I've ever seen.
That was spiritual.
I'm a big ol' Bear Grease and MeatEater fan keep'em coming. Clay's story telling is Top Notch.
Best show I've seen on TH-cam this year! Human, hunting, history!
I am literally calling this film the very best I've seen in my lifetime. Mr. Newcomb, I have seen hundreds of hunts. This has been the most enjoyable to watch and learn from. Congratulations to such a wonderful and educational film! From an Arkansan to an Arkansan, God bless and good hunting to you in the years to come.
A great tribute to our indigenous ancestors!
Mr. Newcomb sir, you are an excellent orator. Meateater has another wonderful series to educate me. Keep 'em coming.
Everything Clay does is great. He's one of a kind.
Clay, you’re the kind of inspiring man I’d love to sit next to at a camp fire and talk to. You don’t need to use a radio voice in your narration to keep me captivated. Great episode. I can’t wait for the next one.
Clay Newcomb, the best story teller and narrator there is.
I listened to the podcast when it came out and was completely blown away by it and now we have this video and it’s amazing. Thanks for putting this out there. Good work and great job!
Clay; this is one of my favorite videos I have watched on TH-cam.
Brilliant episode combining history and hunting ❤
Clay that was the coolest way of taking meat I’ve ever seen wow. I admire you for doing this thank you
Meateater: a channel so good even the extremists against hunting don't talk crap.
Absolutely unreal. I love this series. Great job Clay!
That's awesome! Done thousands of years ago and today, we still honor and practice those traditions
This was an incredible episode! Clay is such a true genuine backwoodsman and sportsman. Can’t wait for future episodes!
I'm not surprised, but extremely impressed that the head did not break inside the bear. The idea that you can reuse your stone arrowheads is awesome.
I used to make my own bows and arrows when I was a kid, and often the heads would snap on something hard, but I never had the chance to hunt real game with them. This such a great video!
God Bless*
Probably the best primitive hunt I’ve ever seen fantastic work my friend
This is one of the best shows yet from MeatEater. I love Clay Newcombs podcast and this is basically a video form of it! Outstanding!
It’s rad how fast that kill shot happened, trad bow stone point
So cool, it really doesn’t get any better. Nice job clay keep ‘em coming.
This was such a cool hunt.thank you clay for letting the world come with you on such a life changing hunt . And showing what it means to be a true woodsman.
Love seeing sponsored by Work Sharp!!
Absolutely a great company. I own several of their sharpeners. And have had nothing but great things with them as well as their customer service.
Grew up in Arizona we’d find arrow heads and pottery all the time. Went to school with Navajo kids are fry bread. Good times out there! 💪🇺🇸💯
Great Episode. That's a hunt you'll never forget. Also if I'd been in a blind that close to multiple bears I don't think anything could have kept the smell down. 😵
God bless you, Clay Newcomb.
Has another son of the Western Arkansas mountains .Clay makes me proud
Thank you for this! I have been so curious about the Folsom site since listening to the podcast. To see the site on this episode was amazing and only makes me want to visit that much more. This series is so far great, can’t wait for more.
Please renew this series for a second season. Love Clay's in depth dives into these subjects!
What an incredible video. I’ve been a fan of the podcast for awhile now but.. this is beyond.
No doubt, one of the best Meat eaters shows 😮
Amazing!!!!! Very very well done with this episode. They are all awesome, but this one just hit different. LOVE IT!!
Been to the Folsom museum twice, glad to see such a well done film on the subject. Please continue this work Clay, there's a lot of stories out there that could benefit from your talents.
My favorite meateater TH-cam video ever! Awesome work, Mr. Newcomb! And awesome work to the crew, as well!
HOLY SH#@!!! 🤯 Dude, that was SO FAST!😲 Props, on the kill and DAAAAAAMN on the whole hunt and stalk....not to mention the patience!!! PROPS MAN PROPS!👊😎 This was nuthin short of takin it back to the "ol days" AND bringing it to the now and proper. This is what hunting is down to the bare bones. Plz keep this series coming, not only for myself, but for further generations to come. Peace✌😎(salute👊😑)
I had heard about McJunkina couple years ago nobody took it seriously. Good to see him get credit, and where this actually happened . Thanks 😊
Awesome series so far. Clay has a way of narrating that I like a lot. Keep it up meat eater crew!
Great work, Clay! I was fascinated by the BG Folsom podcast series. Capturing the history and implementing it today is one of the coolest things I've ever seen.
Amazing video, thank y’all for the amazing inspiration and hope y’all bring to the outdoors community .
This show is so much more interesting and entertaining than watching your standard guy shoot a whitetail in a cornfield. Keep up the good work.
Amazing man. Thanks for taking us along. I hunt and collect artifacts myself..... awesome to see them used.
hell yeah, need more Clay videos
Well done Clay! All-around this was great. From the Folsom site, to the museum, to the knapping, to the hunt, this was extremely well done.
One of the best videos I've watched on TH-cam in a long timeb
Clay, good job bro. I like these historical American culture episodes
This mini series is great. I really appreciate the level of detail and work you put in to making this hunt successful, and more importantly I appreciate the effort you put in to telling the history behind all of this. This is my favorite episode of anything that meateater has put out. Really enjoying your new series so far Clay!
Bear Grease is my favorite podcast. It’s awesome to see the faces that I’ve heard so many times and get some extra information in each topic
Hard to put into words how amazing of a show this was! I have discribed my hunting to others as something that awakens and fulfills me at a DNA level, that its something I am *supposed* to be doing as a human. This episode captured that feeling.
Listened to the bear grease podcast about these points. Kinda like these videos. We get to see some of what you talk about. Thanks Clay
Outstanding. That's cool you had Tony Soares make you some points! I've rewatched that portion where you remove the point and I can't spot any damage. Very cool.
Bear Grease Roadshow has been fantastic so far!
Awesome episode. As usual, Clay narrates perfectly.
he narrates with skills?...
The dichotomy between ancient hunting techniques/equipment with the ear tag on the bear is nothing short of poetic.
that bear scared the shit out of me when it came around the corner! great shot and composure
I know MeatEater is always looking for new content and avenues, and this, is one of the best new series in a while. It's a perfect addition to the brand. I'm sure I'm biased, but things like the Canadian angle do nothing for me, this though, is exactly why i love MeatEater. Education more than anything has always been y'alls earmark, whether it's new hunters, old hunters, non hunters, etc. I didn't hunt when i found y'all, and i do now in large part because of what I've learned here. Don't lose that, keep it up.
Man Clay, that was OUTSTANDING!!! A perfect shot, shot perfectly! Great job to you for telling the story, and the camera man for capturing it.
Prolly one of the coolest videos on TH-cam
Great work Clay. Thank you Meat Eater for producing this series.
C'est complètement génial ! Le concept est merveilleux, merci les gars !! 💪
Every effort improves our understanding. The breakage shows why we flintknappers like them so well, and the thinness.. The points are both attractive and utilitarian. They made them for the same reason we do, because they can. I love how controlled this method is, and the large channell flakes. Nice presentation.
Awesome video! I took my first bear with an obsidian head and cedar shaft. People greatly underestimate the lethality of properly made stone points. Well done!
This is Amazing!! Im from the area, its awesome to aee our beautiful land and history on display. Thanks for coming to New Mexico! Come hunt Vermejo!
Great story on where we came from as MeatEaters.
Wonderful story…..enjoy the Bear Grease podcast and this new venue very much…..thanks
Well done, Mr. Newcomb, well done. Fantastic blend of history, pre-history, hunting, culture, videography. Thank you and your crew.
What a brilliantly told story!!
Great video Mr Clay, very well edited and composed. Keep up those old traditions
