Glad this story got out. My mom and dad were truly one of a kind. Thanks Lee. ❤
The Office got me thru some dark times in my life. I remember just binge watching it and falling asleep to the show, in order to shut off my brain. Love the podcast and these stories.
I’m good friends with Jason back here in Virginia. Jason reached out to me to go get processed meat from the butcher shop because he was out of town and the butcher shop needed it gone due to space. That meat was from the biggest Buck he shot here in va. I think some weeks went buy and I finally meet up with him. He’s a down to earth guy and very genuine. I wouldn’t know this story about Jason if this podcast hadn’t happen. Jason, brother your a strong person and I’m always here for you. I’m one phone call away. Thanks for sharing your story and thanks Lee for putting this together.
Jason it takes a man to share that and be so vulnerable. Much respect
Never commented on a video before love watching all your content. This podcast hit home with me lost my dad in a mining accident with him standing beside me. Been down some dark places after but knowing god and going out a keep hunting what me and him loved to do helps keep his memory alive and now can pass it on to my three children. Thanks for all you do for the hunting industry keep putting the big deer on the ground watching from southern West Virginia.
Mind has been eating at me a lot the past couple months, this really helped me feel like I’m not alone in feeling like this. First episode I’ve watched from yall and it’s just proof god sends you the messages you need to hear. Thank you guys a lot
This one hit home! PTSD doesn’t have to be from war! Everyday people go through it! I lost my best friend/hunting buddy to self harm! Came over the night before to shoot bows/have a few drinks talk hunting and see the turkey I shot that morning “I have a full body mount of that turkey in my house” woke up went to work the next morning and got a call that he was no longer with us ! Buried him with my arrow knock lit and wrote on the fletchings “may you guide my
Arrows this fall” I cried like a baby watching the last half of this! Thanks for sharing this story !
There are many people who you inspire and appreciate what you do, me being one of them. I picked up a bow one year ago because of you and seek one. Keep on keeping on!
Man this guys life story is heart breaking. I lost my grandmother last April and hearing this floods back memories. And I dread getting a call or being in this moment and I know it’s inevitable. Bless you man god bless you.
I’m sorry for your lost and you will see her in heaven
Thank you for sharing. I lost my best friend in Feb he was only 22 years old. He was my fishing buddy, gym bro, and hunting buddy we did everything together. Means a lot that you shared. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. Have faith and all glory to God.
Maybe the best Podcast I have listened to in a long time...... I enjoyed the stories of deer hunting, (As a cop of almost 30 years) was upset over the way the officer did you on the permission..."So not right", and hurt with you over the story of your Mother and Father..... So GLAD to know that they were fellow believers.... You will see them Again.... (Remember this " Thieves don't break into empty houses" Satan doesn't attack those who never pose a threat to him.... Stand true to your beliefs and be the witness God created you to be..... If you are in Chattanooga and want to hunt... Come on, LOL but we can't hunt over corn.... Loved the story....
This brought tears to my eyes, after losing a sister 3 years ago all the memories flooding back from the time arriving at the hospital to leaving it with a younger sister gone.
Great podcast, love Seek One and all the content y’all are putting out. Fellow VA guy here, I’m hoping to support your new Taxidermy business this fall! Good luck buddy
As a fellow Georgia hunter I love the podcast and the Seek One channel, being that I spend every day working around Atlanta. The more I watch and listen to you guys I really enjoy just how genuine you guys are. I actually ran into Yappy at a local bow shop a couple weeks ago and just got to witness for myself just how down to earth the whole group of you guys seem! Such a stellar group of guys. Hope to have that myself someday. Keep up the good content guys. Maybe I’ll run into you guys someday!
Burying my dad the same year and my hunting buddy ,I really felt this episode .. I’m in tears .. sorry for your loss brother ! Stay strong 💪🏽
I think it's fair for Jason to refer to that as PTSD. My dad had a similar accident 11 years ago. I remember waking up on a Sunday morning and decided to watch Shrek. Next thing I know, my dad is banging on the sliding glass door and he's covered head to toe in blood. He tried cutting a huge tree down by himself and it got hung up and he pulled it with the quad and got hit by a 1200 pound widow maker. Broke his back, ribs, and split his head. God woke me up that morning, and if it wasn't for that my dad wouldn't be here. I deal with PTSD from seeing that sight at 12 years old. I cherish every moment I get to spend with him in the woods now, the lord works in mysterious ways, but he saved my father that day. So sorry for your losses Jason, just know they are with you in spirit when you pursue whitetail. Great video Lee.
Man this story made me tear up man I lost my dad back in July due to cancer brought back a lot of feeling I’ve tried to drown out it gets better but it’s never the same
Here, I am sobbing because from July of 2018 to June of 2019. Lost my father and stepfather only a month apart, and my mother 5 days after here 73 birthday in June 2019. All from different forms of cancer.
Praying for you!
@Lethal_but_barely Thank you ,and I for you. Stay safe and good luck in the woods, brother.
By far my favorite hunting group! Everyone involved is always such a good human and great ethical hunters. I wish I could hang out with Lee. Keep crushing it!
Great story. Love to hear people openly sharing their faith. I have no fear of death because it is the gateway to my eternal home. Now I do hope it’s something that where I go to sleep and don’t wake up or I don’t see a big truck coming that runs a red light and takes me out instantly. But, I don’t get to choose the time or place. I lost my Mammaw when I was 9 that I was really close to and then my best friend when I was 12. I guess I understood death at an early age. Now as a pastor (work full time as well), I am around families during a death. Everyone handles grief differently and I don’t know if we ever really get used to it. It’s natural, and we need to process it so it doesn’t continue to tear us down. What doesn’t kill you now will eventually if you don’t deal with it.
I do want to live long enough to see my daughter graduate college and youngest son graduate high school. I really enjoy time with my granddaughter (oldest son’s). I look forward to getting to take her hunting. At one time in my life, I lived in an area of Arkansas that had big deer, and I killed a couple on the 80 acres my dad and I leased. The best times were when my daughter wanted to go and we would sit in a blind for 30 minutes or an hour or two. I would not make her stay longer than she wanted to. Just a few snacks and enjoying the time together. Like I enjoy spending time in the woods setting up blinds for my dad that will be 79 this year. It’s not about how much time necessarily but what we make of the time we have.
Glad to hear this story, the bonds that hunting creates are absolutely amazing
Thanks Lee, Thank you Jason, nicely done!
Wow, came here for the deer story stayed for this man! Omg what a life and what a message. Thank you for sharing.
Great Podcast guys! Jason Whitlow... Listening to the loss you've gone through is heartbreaking! It's so similar to what I've gone through. From April 1st of 2015 to October 26th of 2016 I lost my brother, three months later my mom, and a year and 3 months after my mom passed my dad lost his fight with cancer.
Our Father in Heaven allows us to go through these times for reasons we may not know right away, but it brings us closer to him and gives us the strength to live through Jesus Christ! God Bless You Jason!
Praying for you! Thank you for the kind words.
Man this is a great podcast but it will def bring a tear to your eye if you have any kind of a heart thats for sure. Jason most def is a strong willed man. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼’s for him and his family
Great podcast with some fun story’s. Sorry for your loss that is so tough even just to listen to.
Sounded like you saw a video of the guys who got that potential world record that went downhill, anywhere we can find that? Thanks guys keep up the good work
I lost my mom to cancer shortly after i moved to ohio from Michigan, 25 years ago , just lost my father this last year, its not easy bro. Thankfully we share the same passion and the nature of the outdoors helps heal us. Bringing us clarity , respect, strength.
know this comments a few months old but sorry for ur loss man keep ur head up and stay in the woods
Truly amazing story. Thank you for sharing it with us.
I don’t even know where to start. Sudden deaths are something not easy. I lost a very close family member from a sudden death. Can’t imagine what he went thru. Glad to see his story and hope to see more vids of him in the future. Seems like an awesome guy!
You guys have made light us some of my darkness for sureee!
Thankyou so much for what you are doing, you have brought me closer to the lord as well… I have a lot of work left to do but seek one since I have found it has inspired me big time ! Thankyou

Thank you Guys,,,, God Bless all Of Ya'll,,,,
Great podcast! I love what you're doing! I need to get on your podcast!! I have questions for you and valuable information that I'm not sure you're aware of in the whitetail world. C
As an avid deer hunter and former Ranger, hearing you say that really pisses me off but breaks my heart even more. I tip my hat to you guys! #RLTW
Love the pod keep spitting um out 😀
Such a great story that I can relate to. Many prayers to you all🙏🏻
Man I live up here in Ohio and man some of the deer I see are massive body size and rack I shot a 141 and 6/8s 10 pointer and he was definitely 300 plus on the hoof, you just gotta love it man, love the videos.
I lost my mom in 2016. She passed with stage 4 lung cancer. I spent every night in the hospital with her because it seemed no one else could handle it. This story hit home! 😢
What a story. Thanks for sharing!
I had a very similar situation with my mom then my step dad the next year. It sucks not being able to call her up or go visit and teller her about my life. What even hurt worse was watching my step dad get a girlfriend a month later and move her in the house my mom and him built together. Then after he dies going into the house and getting things ready to be sold and cleaning the house to be sold.
Ever had does in urban run up to you thinking you are a deer walking to a stand. Cause it is a definite weird feeling but you guys are correct deer do know. I just went through this on one of my spots I’m at
Unbelievable story brother.. god bless you and your family
This guys story of his mom was identical to my pops same time night gettin a phone call same situation. same year only days apart. Feb 8 2018 Nothing can prepare you to lose a parent/ best friend/ huntin partner. Life’s never the same after but you gotta lead with what you have left. Never give up.
Great podcast! Were neighbors Jason! Live in Richmond!
Made me tear up 😢
U r so right about the having regrets before you lose your parents. I miss my father dearly.
Holy shit buddy u have the worst stories ever. I can't imagine having that kinda luck horrible
Ppl suck with wills and $$$$. We are all being judged. EXCELLENT PODCAST. God bless y'all
Can't wait to see y'all guys at the Birmingham Deer Expo
people do it with mule deer sadly out west poaching suburbs too
Any chance at a link to the big Michigan buck? Michigan hunter here, always fun to see big boys taking around the state that most dont think can have big ones.
Man great content and story got a couple similar stories like this
This story hits home I've lost my father recently to a stroke I ended up having to make the hardest decision of my life to keep him on a machine or let him go i don't wish that decision on anyone I've dealt with loosing my grandmother to cancer as well to my little brother being murdered in Dayton ohio I've always liked hunting and recently decided life is to short to be just trying to save up enough to have the hunting supplies I need so I just got what I could n said hell with it I'm gonna do what makes me happy this year is the first year I've been back in the woods since I was a kid for someone wanting to get into bow hunting would u have any suggestions that would make me better as a hunter n a woodsman I love u guys put this story out there i put my faith in the man upstairs and what will be is what it will be life moves on for the people who was left behind and we are left with just all the pain of loosing them but thank you for what u guys do I love watching all your videos makes me excited to get in the woods
great dude right there
I hunted alot of areas like that close to backyards or places where theres alot of human interaction and i remember thinking it didnt matter where my scent blew they were used to the smell but man was i wrong. In most cases the deer in those areas were used to being shot i started having alot more success hunting from the ground.
I will be praying for you and your family! God is the light you can cling to. Doesn’t change the pain but gives you hope and joy! They are in a much better place! Thank God for salvation you will see them again! Keep your head up! Your dad represented the love Christ showed and laid down his life for someone else!
Dayton has some big bucks for sure
Chicken leg lee is getting married congrats
Take it back.
And thank you
You're hunting and life will change, hopefully for the better😅
One thing I think would be cool on your podcasts is if you would shop a quick pic of the bucks you're talking about especially if you didn't kill it and just had trail cam pics of it or something. Then we could feel your pain too hah
I've been swallowing a lump in my throat from the moment he started talking about his mother!
I am ready to see Lee go tackle public land Appalachia. He’s really got a sharp mind for whitetail but I’d love to see him do the hardest whitetail hunting there is. Where theres only 1 deer per square mile (640 acres)….Thats just deer, much less a quality buck. I grew up hunting the Allegheny mountains in Virginia, biggest deer I have ever seen taken in those woods is a 212 inch deer my step dad killed. Anyways…go hunt public Appalachia Lee! I would love to see it!
When I was 15 years old got permission to bow hunt a woods on a chunk of gas company property. My teacher got me a hand written not and I hunted it for the year. The reason i wanted to hunt there was because there were 3 bucks I watched all summer one was a giant 6x6. So I go in one day after school and I jump a deer off this point and it runs out through the field and gets smoked by a car. It was the 6x6.
What was the video of the guy in Michigan you were talking about that shot that buck?
Dude I have such a familiar life story. So many people do. Hunting is peaceful and helps me stay close to God our creator. Rooting for you man.
We've got to renew our minds through Christ. I've been through some of my own struggles and sickness. But God is always there, even if we don't feel it. Thank you for being real with your struggles and heartbreak. Life has a way of changing you. God is alive and real.
I've had "pet" deer in my yard that are totally used to me. I can cook out and make whatever noise I want.. but the second I take a step outside the yard. Poof.
Also, as long as I would constantly TALK to them they were usually fine.
When is lee going to make a new seek one vid 😢😢😢
Your Mom and Dad would be proud of you. You will see them again someday. Thanks for sharing your story. Keep your eyes on the prize. Heaven is our most important goal, in the meantime we will love hunting, our family and friends and our savior. Not necessarily in that order obviously
It does get better for some, I’ve been dealing with depression a long time. I lost my dad in 2012 and my mom in 2019 and my brother 9 days after my mom. I’ve been in a deep rut several times since my dad passed because we did everything together so I lost my father and my best friend that day. My wife was pregnant at the time so I felt like I had to keep going for that reason and now the depression has starter with her with the self harming and all that. Life is a shot show. I’m also a born again apostolic pentacostal Christian to be right with god so when my time comes I can go to heaven and to think that maybe having Jesus in my life would keep the devil out but the devil will try even harder. I’d love to just give up one day but I know my family needs me. Depression is real and more people deal with it than you’d think. Be kind to everyone because you never know man.
Prayers for you brotha. Keep fighting the good fight. Tomorrow is a new day and yes your family needs you. Thank you for sharing. I will keep you in my prayers my friend.

"He saw the disciples straining at the oars, because the wind was against them. Shortly before dawn he went out to them, walking on the lake. He was about to pass by them" Mark 6:48
God knows the path and the end results just gotta keep paddling. Have faith and carry on man God bless yall
You guys should do a podcast with Creek Kings
@Seek One, @Lee Ellis, keep on keeping on! Nay sayers will make excuses and all rooted in jealousy. You shoot some great bucks and provide great content! One day, ill be blessed with similar opportunities, until then keep crushing day by day
I would have gotten the Game Warden involved in that crock of shit. I'd say that cop poached it on property he didnt have permission on.
Yup! Maybe it was CJ Alexander’s dad… 😂
I know the Michigan buck u guys are talking bout.. guys got his sheds..
Bro I live 5 minutes from Bluefield College!
It was Devin Leonard who killed the cemetery buck! It was on the workingclass bowhunter podcast great story also
Also from Georgia, lived in NY for 3 years, not only were New Yorkers the most racist people in ever met, so were all the surrounding states, in contrast to the south where everyone claims we’re racist, and i hardly ever meet racist people down here.
I think deer can smell adrenaline, or maybe can hear when your heart starts pounding
The end of this story reminds me of the story of Job in scripture where God and Satan were having a conversation about testing Jobs faith and Satan says to God that “your golden child Job over there is only faithful because he has many head of cattle and a lovely family and lives a fruitful life, I bet that if he lost all of those things that he would curse your name” God says to Satan “you may test Job but spare his life”. And so Job lost his children, cattle, money and everything he even got boils all over his body but he never once cursed Gods name and stayed fruitful in the spirit even when his wife told him to curse Gods name and die for the things happening to him. And he replied to his wife “But Job replied, “You talk like a foolish woman. Should we accept only good things from the hand of God and never anything bad?”
I'm 47 yrs old. I grew up in the early stages of realtree, Jackie bushman, mossy oak days.i grew up living those hunts. I'll say this. I could not tell you who the tv guys are these days. Because i quit watching and caring. Because these guys have turned hunting into a foodplot, big buck only, farm deer, box stand hunting world. Makes me sick. I grew up learning how to hunt. How to track and outsmart old bucks. And does. I have over 20 deer on my wall over 150".i have over 20 antler mounts 120"-140". That being said. Every one of those deer were tracked and uncontless hours, days, weeks, months and years worth of hard work. I hunt from the heart its spiritual. Guys have lost the true meaning of hunting. All of my deer have been taken on public land. Or knock on door. I've never paid one red cent to hunt. All that being said. I found lee and his seek one videos 2 years augo. After watching him. I can tell lee realy loves it as much asi do. I can not say that about any other human on earth other than my brother and me. I've never met lee. But i would like to one day. Just to sit down and tell some stories. I'll bet i can spark his interest. He's a real deer hunter. Lee if you read This.i support your channel and your love for the hunt. Jason from arkansas.i would love to sit down and tell you some stories and show you some of my lifetime of memories.
Hoping we cross paths some day
I'm 46 and from MS and the culture is STRONG here. I STILL have my ORIGINAL bottomland, greenleaf, fall foliage and real tree camo in a container.
Wow sorry for your losses.
dude is this behind mcdonalds along the highway ? big tee pee, painted rocks warren county.
Anyone that doesn't know Jesus it free it more than life changing it life saving and yes there are some things in this he answered belongs to God and God only give all the glory to God
😂 the most narcissistic guy that’s ever been behind a bow says… I don’t care what people say.. really?
Is this first hand knowledge or just jealousy of accomplishments?
@@bch5513
Sorry for offending you Dickrider.
Please continue slobbering on his knob.
Didn’t mean to interrupt you.
This is HNTR……I think you’re confused.
Definitely not confused, the man pays money to hunt mostly small parcels for fame and notoriety. I bet you don’t have much respect for high fence hunters? What he does really is not that much different.
Go figure seek one and stolen city limit buck
If you could quit using the word LIKE every other word it would be great.
I lost my mom to cancer I was 25 my mom was 47 ! Cancer sucks
