    Barry, enjoy your hunts and your descriptions of what’s happening and how it’s happening. Just awesome. Turned 69 this year and after fighting Cancer for 8 years and going on 2 years Cancer free....Yee-Ha!! I was so hoping before I got to old to call you up and make a stalk with you at my side but ain’t gonna happen. Just could not get back in the kinda shape needed for us both to enjoy my company. LOL Your professional enthusiasm and attitude toward your hunter is - well let me say....You are certainly entertaining from a LazyBoy rocker. Wish I had 5 more good years and I’d be smilin’ all the way from Alaska back to Texas. What a blessing your videos bring to those of us who are less fortunate to have been able to have you as their guide. Be good if you can. God is Good. All the best, Hoss

    i have been on a binge marathon watching all of Billy's hunting but absolutely this is by far my favorite so far. I dont know if says anything about me but the butchering part is really cool because i know how much respect is put into conserving that meat. Moose is my best eating meat ever and next time i am eating another Moose i will always remember that these guys hunting em put a lot into tracking and processing the meat. Much respect to you Billy and the Birthday boy; happy 60 yrs young

      Sounds like your butcher doesn't understand how to make spicy wild boar breakfast sausage but moose is a good back up meat 😀 👌

    I don’t know when this video was posted but I absolutely loved it all. First item was your client was from PA and that’s where I lived for 43 years. Second, the adventure to hunt bear and Moose has always been a dream for me. The closest I ever got was a turkey hunt and pheasant shoot! Not in the same level as an Alaska wild game shoot. Billy gave so much to his client’s dream that he began to loose his own dream. Praise the Lord that Billy was able to see God in all of nature around him and know that his God was there for him as well as all who look for Him. I really loved what was shown in this video; the character of both client and guide and their love and respect for Gods creatures and the love these men expressed for their families.

    I’m always inspired by Billy’s words, they just resonate in my soul and I connect to his thoughts. The hunts are fascinating and I love them. But Billy, you have a very unique gift being able to articulate the experience of the outdoors, the habitat, the harmony of all Gods creations intertwined simultaneously. The landscape, the wildlife, the weather. The human experience of being so blessed to experience it, yet also being so vulnerable to it. There is never a guarantee one is coming home, and that’s the beauty of it. In Gods most splendid creations and also at his mercy. Beautiful.
    Those moments when I just sit in the woods on a scout perhaps. The sun just coming up, watching the wildlife and the habitat together and sitting so still. The animals not knowing you are there. Seeing them behave unaware of your presence. Something very very special about that. The experience is so more enjoyable than the harvest. The harvest is a bonus.
    Cheers all and God Bless.

    The best video I have ever viewed on youtube because of your opening up and sharing your life and faith to help others.
    Absolutely loved this video....my brother has had severe arthritis most of his life...has suffered more than anyone human I know. As a result he is now one of the nicest people I know. He spends his entire life focused on helping lift the burden off of other fellow human beings and is on an experimental drug that has allowed him to once again have some form of a life.
    I saw the pain and trials turn him into so much greater of a human being than he ever would have been without the trials.
    All things work together for good to those that love GOD.

    Binge watching these videos has been an eye opening experience for me. The amount of work that's involved in hunting these majestic animals, and the beauty of this land is amazing. BILLY reminds me of a young Clint Eastwood's, maybe it's the tone and calmness of his voice. These hunters are in the hands of a Master of his craft. Thanks for showing me this amazing Country from my couch.🙏

      I never knew how hard it was to self video a hunt until I hunted with Billy. It takes a lot of focus and effort to make a watchable video while you are in some very difficult situations. He does it to provide hunts for those who maybe can't do the hunts for whatever reason. I'm sure he will appreciate your comments. I know I do.

    Billy you have some of the best, if not the best hunting videos out there. I love that fact your hunts are not covered up by music in the background. This way the observer gets to hear the lantern hissing or the coffee pot percolating, making one feel as if they are there hunting with you and your client.
    Been in the Outfitting and Guide business myself since 1982, I have to agree with you, you meet many great people and make lifetime friends in a hunting camp.

The interior of PA is like the best kept secret because it's so beautiful, I see wildlife every day and have dozens of birds, squirrels and chipmunks at my feeders. I even have rabbits sometimes.

      Thanks for watching Leopald. Sometimes there just isn't enough time to get excited until it's over. It was exciting!
      It was odd the way it happened. I was in the prone position and Billy was half standing and I couldn't see what he could see.With two knee replacements I couldn't get up without putting my hands on the ground. With the bear so close I wasn't about to take either hand off the rifle. I decided to let him come a couple steps closer. He didn't and the rest is history. Those few moments are etched in my mind and that is what makes hunting so fulfilling. Again, thanks for watching.

    That was one of the best Hunting Guide Videos I've seen. Billy Moll your a real inspiration. Your client Barry from Pennsylvania was a real trooper and I'm sure was a real pleasure.
    Good luck to both of you Gentlemen.

    Even though I am a "girl" lol, I have really enjoyed watching all of your hunts. I've watched all the hunts you've done with Barry and I have to say, I agree with your young packer on this video, he is one bad ass old man ha ha ha. Anyyyways, I digress. I wanted to say thank you for continuing to produce such wonderful videos and keep your chin up kid.
    I learned a long time ago that a person CAN pull themselves out of depression without medication IF that person has a strong mind and a will to live. I survived a horrendous childhood filled with incest. It took me a long time to, as I put it, "Pick up my big girl panties and get my ass to movin'". For many years I felt like I wanted to die because of what happened to me, and at 51, I still struggle with "God". I will never say that he doesn't exist, but there may always be a part of me that wonders if he truly does exist. That being said, I do know that my mind is stronger than my depression. I slip and fall back into it sometimes, but, I have pulled myself back out EVERY TIME so far. So, Keep your chin up kid, you have little girls who need and love you.

      Absolutly, I'm 59 with 2 back surgeries in the 1980's and neck surgery in 2004. I'm in need of knee replacement times two. I'm an oil refinery operator and still work. Every day is a physical perseverance. Packing out the gear as well as packing out the animals in that rough terrain. Is a challenge. A challenge my lumbar spine is no longer capable of. Way to go Barry!

      ​@@barrybarton5575 thank you for being such an inspiration. I killed my largest buck this year because of it. I got up opening morning hurting from arthritis and ms . I thought about staying in bed and I thought would Barry let this stop him. So I got up stumbled around and got moving finally got to my blind . At first light a buck came running by behind me at 20 yards. He finally stopped broadside at 250 yards one shot and down he went. He ended up being 6 points 16 inch inside spread 5.25 inch bases 190 pounds. He was all busted up from fighting. My biggest of my career. Only deer I seen opening day. Usually I see 20-30 deer on opening morning. Thank you for being my inspiration.

      @@slynn5138 Over the past 15 years Billy and I have hunted sheep, moose, bear , caribou, wolverine. I am eternally grateful and blessed to be able to make the trips. We did hunt bear in The brooks range in 2021 and took a great bear. I always hunt with Billy or I don't hunt.
      The Alaskan outfitters prefer you always have a bear tag. They are numerous and do a lot of damage to the prey animals so no matter what we are hunting I always have a bear tag.
      In April of 2022 I had to have back surgery which is healing very well. Planning going back in 2023.........GOD willing.
