- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ม.ค. 2023
- This is a horror story that will haunt our family for a long time. This is about Tana and Trevor hunting Alaskan Brown Bears. For those who are new here to our Channel, Stuck N The Rut started with 4 sibling: Travis, Tom, Tana, and Trevor, who are very avid DIY Public Land hunters. Tana married Adam, who is now a big part of the Team as well. On this hunt, its just Tana and Trevor camping after the largest bears in the world, only Trevor has the hunting tag/permit. After a couple days camping and glassing, they finally found the bear they were after. They made a long trek to where the bear was located. To get the rest of the story of this bear attack, you must watch the episode. Thank you for your support.

I'm so glad you put that last part in. I've been a guide for 35 years and had some pretty bad situations in the past one that did involve a
brown bear. And you're spot-on. Your honesty about this video should be commended. Anybody that tries to crucify you really doesn't know what they're talking about. Good job I've always enjoyed your videos.
Thank you so much. All we can do is learn from our mistakes and move forward
Thank you very much that means a lot! I’ve been grateful to all the guides who understand and helped to teach me 👍🏼
Wow...seriously? How many times did you not have a backup gun? Have a pistol fall out of the holster??? I would argue you don't know what you are talking about and must have been a very ignorant and unsafe "guided" 35 years?!?! How many died?..clients that is.
Wow what a great Vidio It really shows how real it can get out there! It shows how prepared you must be
Always have a backup and then another I’m sure this Vidio will save lives thank you for how you shared this story Also wow I can’t believe the amount of led he took before he dropped thanks
..w0w! Dang, too bad you found the pistol.
Last May, I had to shoot a grizzly in Wyoming. I was also carrying a taurus, but mine is the tracker in 44 mag. When I ran into the bear in the thick willows, he was about 20 feet away by the time I drew my gun dropped to a knee, so I wasn't shooting down on him he was at about 10 feet I fired 2 rounds double action and dropped him at 6 feet at that point I fell over backwards rolled to the side and made a run for it when we went back with the warden the bear had got back up and went the opposite way about 100 yards before it died as I had missed the head striking it in the chest with both shots. It was a strange combination of pure terror and excitement
I shot a black bear, albeit not an Alaskan grizzly but it was pretty large, 391 lbs when we scaled it. I shot it with a Colt Anaconda and two rounds in the chest using Remington 240gr SJHP’s. After that I switched to Doubletap lead hardcast. Them bears can take a lot of punishment before they go down. I was surprised.
God bless you guys ,wow !!!! Crazy stuff
Why do these animals need to be hunted? Is there a plague of bears or something..?
@@markhepworth They are hunted because we would rather forage for our own fresh non added hormonal meat, than to buy it at a grocery store. Hunting and gathering is part of man’s DNA. It’s fun and exciting to scout, pursue, catch, clean eat and preserve the hide.
@@colt10mmsecurity68 You eat Bear meat..? I know what you mean about all the crap pumped into animals in the US,that’s why US meat isn’t allowed to be sold here in the UK.
The fact that you let us see your mistakes and let us learn from them is the most respectful and honorable thing you could've done! 🎯
You two are lame
mistake was to do this trip
No that would have been to leave the bear alone. Period!
Most people dont go hunt and kill dangerous animals for no reason.
True. I hate the video but respect honesty. If u f?ck up it good to show it. U should not hunt Bears again.
this is insane i would never in a million years think that bear would cover 500 yards after being shot 3 times with a 338. Even the final 454 shot that put it down didnt look like it fazed him. He had killer instincts right up until the lights went out.
Definitely a crazy experience.
@@Stuckntherut1 how many shots did the 454 Casull hit the bear, only 1 shot missed?
One reason why everyone I hunt with all carry their own 454 casull. Shit can go south very fast and everyone needs to be able to take care of themselves. Tana is awesome and very experienced and that experience of listening to that prompting of getting as far away from the bear was the other thing that saved their lives. So glad you both are safe. You need to send casull this video.
Note: my uncle was best friends with the guy who developed the 454 and became his first rep for them in Alaska. It became the gun of choice in Alaska because it is big enough to do just what they did. Yes it’s a big gun and can be a brute to shoot but when you are in a situation like this you want to kill it and stop the threat not piss it off.
Thank you for this feedback! So true. Everyone needs a 454.
Very true. I think having a large sidearm while hunting many regions is a very good idea... Sadly, as a Canadian living in canada, we would be dead in that situation as we cannot carry a sidearm anywhere... even in remote wilderness with dangerous animals....unless somehow you can get approved for a wilderness carry license, but thats like asking someone for a 10 pound gold bar...
God forbid that our licensed, vetted, tested, and government approved citizens that are also licensed for hunting carry a large caliber revolver in the wilderness for last resort protection.... Gotta stop those urban gang bangers shooting up the downtown ghettos, and carrying a revolver in the wilderness will only exacerbate the gun crime in canada right? We have one of, if not the most retarded government in power right now... The things that our tyrannical radical leftist PM has done to licensed firearm owners in this country is straight criminal. Once you lose a right by order of the government, it is 10 times harder to get that right back... Hopefully we can rid ourselves of this current sewage named trudeau that we have as PM and get Mr. Poilievre in as our leader and maybe we can get a portion of what we lost back. Wishful thinking either way. This is why gun owners do not want to give an inch... because they take a mile. Every. single. time. History has shown this is almost always the case.
No kidding, 3 rounds from a 338 rum and it still all but kills them after walking/running 6-700 yards.
Ladies really ain't got a brain. She had bow but her brain got clogged snd instead she starts recording and that is what you call a liability. She expecting the guy to die for her. Feminist @corygamble9785
@@Muskiehunter92 carry one anyway, your life could depend on it. don't let the freedom hating, control mongers dictate your life. just keep it quiet.
May I suggest additions to your lessons learned list?:
1) Never use hot loads… that extra 30-50fps isn’t worth it
2) Consider using penetration bullets like Barnes LRX… they retain more weight than bonded core bullets.
3) When in survival mode… force yourself to eat even if you don’t feel up to it due to nausea or whatever… it sucks but you need energy. I learned this from a mountain guide my first time scrambling up a mountain in tge winter to go spelunking. He simply would not put up with my refusal to eat when we reached the top so I forced down some awful food… he was right.
Wow what a story!… thank you for sharing!
Thank you for sharing. This is why I practice with my 44 mag all the time, practice with bear-spray deployment, and carry a magnum caliber rifle. Bears are so powerful and fast. Much respect given.
The fact he said “I feel like I’m gonna die today” be careful with your words. I’m so glad you guys make it ❤ love the videos
Well, I think that bear had had the very same feeling a couple minutes before them ... as the second bullet hit him when he was just minding his own business ...
Yes. In the Bible is says our tongue has the power to speak life or death.
Explaining the issue with the rifle is the part of this video I appreciate the most! Lol. It was killing me trying to figure out what could have happened to cause the issue with cycling the bolt. A++ on this video and the way it was narrated! I can’t imagine the feeling of going from hunter to the hunted.
Most people bow hunting carry a pistol but I'm not sure those hunting with a rifle do. I would always have a backup in bear country. In most of these videos, they don't even have a round chambered until they are ready to shoot. I have heard the guides say they won't let the hunter carry a loaded gun. If they're that scared of a loaded gun, they should find another line of work! Then again, is it part of a guiding license that the government mandates?
Thank you all for watching. This needed to be a long episode for it to make sense. I am more than happy to answer any questions you may have, however, I recommend any of you that have questions or concerns about the hunt to watch it entirely before asking. Your questions most likely will be answered in the 50min film, you just need to have patience.
I remember this happening and the stress Mis Tanasue had for a couple days. Glad the good Lord got you guys out of there and Trever and sis both made it home safe with a heck of a bear hunt memory. Thanks again to STUCK IN THE RUT FAMILY, CREW AND FANS. keep that RGB next to you in brown bear country. 🐻🎥💪🏽💪🏽💯👍🙏🏻
Wow. What an experience. I was rushed by a moose with my wife once. Nothing compared to this.
What Kuiu jacket were you wearing the first 3 days? Was it a hard shell or soft shell?
Cmon this is a grizz hunt definitely a backup rifle is necessary u guys got so lucky hope lesson learned
Having never hunted grizz was shot placement and bullet performance actually sufficient or was there a lack in either area? I'm pretty sure it was that same round in another 1 of your rifles on an elk hunt that I got into a discussion with you about. I feel that if 3 rounds went through the vitals AND performed as a hunting bullet should, that bear never should have been able to move far. Like I said, I've never hunted grizz but I personally would be considering a different bullet or even a bigger cartridge after an experience like that. Glad it all ended as well as could be hoped for in that scenario.
Is all the bear meat unused/ wasted? I suppose other wildlife make use of it.
The fact that the bear, after taking 3 shots, was so determined to getting them is simply amazing to me.
Absolutely scary too. He was hunting them down even injured like that
A lot of lessons learned on this one
Tana and Trevor, you two are incredible! No one knows how you will react in a SHTF situation until you’re in one and how you’ve taken this situation to learn and better yourselves really says a lot about you.
I applaud you for what you’ve done. In that situation and after it. You guys are real role models and are what our hunting community needs as ambassadors.
All I know is I won’t be going into the backcountry without a sidearm ever again and I may just have to look into a .454 or some other big bore revolver.
Thank you for sharing your experience and for everything you do for conservation and the hunting community.
Crap happens you can never be fully prepared for everything. Glad you survived! Side story: My dad shot a brown bear in a meadow face on about 150yds and his rifle jammed. Knowing it was clear the rifle or die he didn't look up until he knew the bear should be on top of him but to his surprise there was no bear to be seen but come to find out it fell in a small depression in the ground about 20yds from him heart shot. He was lucky that bear died quick but when it's our time nothing can stop it and when it's not our time nothing can take us. God bless.
I have spent a lifetime in the field and have had my share of close calls. My heart was pounding sitting in a chair listening to you describe the bear coming at you. Your quick decision to relocate was smart. Great story and good lessons for all!
While I have taken many deer and different animals with both archery and firearms, I’ve never been interested in taking a bear. This video doesn’t change my mind but it does help me appreciate what can happen on a bear hunt. Excellent video, shows the reality of hunting.
That bear was the freaking Terminator!!! One of those freak scenarios where 95%+ of bears would have died on the spot, but he just wouldn't go down. You can see large blood spots the whole way down. That makes for one helluva story!
Even at 475yds that bullet had a lot of pop. And an Accubond is a great bullet choice. If it was the third round, the chances are good that it was a reloading anomaly (happens to the best). Just a whole bunch of random things coming together at once. Glad you made it out with no damage and an awesome story!
Tana’s take on trauma and learning from that experience is pretty profound. Thanks for sharing!
Yea the mentally deranged seem to be okay
I don't think anyone in the video (or watching) learned anything of value🤮
@@caspermaul7583?
I did.
She learned what most people learn before 25
The crazy thing is that bear coming straight for you guys from 475 yds despite his wounds, through the snow, whatever. It is insane what nature is capable of. What, how, and why...that is the last thing I would have expected. Total craziness. Great job on all aspects of the video.
It’s always the nerds in Sitka that can’t figure things out. Glad he’s good at reading snow conditions but not good at anything else
Old military axiom (works for business as well) is, "two is one, one is none." One rifle is none, one cook stove is none, etc. Even a lightweight .30-30 is an acceptable backup rife for a charging bear. Also, I stick with factory ammo for hunting, even when hunting little Texas whitetails (my handloads I use for practice and sighting in). But that was a helluva story, to be sure!
3 shots in the torso region from a .338 at 450 yards. 50 minutes to die, likely covered 600-700 yards with the ability to kill both of these hunters left in him. Let that sink in folks, that is eye opening and alarming. .338 in a human torso would be just short of a complete excavation. This was a great video that represents mountain hunting in a place where only a weapon makes you a predator. Without it you are as helpless as a rabbit. Outstanding guys👍
Nailed it.
yeah too bad he didnt get them.
your statement fully reveals that you are weak and fragile.
WOW!!! Obviously, we, as viewers, can't know what you guys went through with this situation. Having been through similar things, although not as close to being eaten by a monster bear, I can really appreciate how guys kept it together enough to make it out of that situation relatively unscathed. Although, that situation will inevitably be played through your minds forever now, because you guys handled it the way you did when it came down to the nitty gritty, is why you were successful. Thank you for sharing this with everyone. Lastly, don't let any of the haters get to you. Just about on every we hunt we take part in, we can look back and say we wished we would have done this or that. What happens going forward is how you know you learned from all those experiences! Well done, guys!
Thank you for your support Trevor
You guys made a split decision that saved your lives, running to that rock is what kept you two alive. So many things went wrong it was almost like it was your turn to go. But you fought like your lives depended on it and you’re both here today because of it.
Sooooo y’all shoot a grizzly multiple times. It doesn’t go down and start coming at you.
Should’ve had a spear with y’all. Don’t run now. Stand you ground and fight it to the death, like a real hunter.
Wow! Tana, what an insightful close. Trevor, way to hold it together and make those last 4 rounds count. I'll be processing this tonight in my sleep. Holy Shit!!
First off I am glad you all made it out safe from that situation. Second, whoever wants to crucify you for this just plain and simple will never understand the situation. As a public hunting platform you took some risk publishing this, but for 100% of the hunting community you just provided a potentially life saving video. So thank you for your willingness to share and being extremely unselfish in sharing this experience.
The fact the bear spotted you, and was aware for its own safety after the shots on it, and tracked you so damn quick, tells me he probably was completely aware of you before the 1st shot and just didnt take it as a serious threat.. which also tells me that bear is a bad ass hunter when it decided to be..
It’s because they yelled at the bear to try to get it to stand up. Like you said, pin pointed them before the first shot
Was a bad ass bear. Didn't deserve what they did to it. Yeah too many bears bullshit I only saw one
Should change the title to “BEAR ALMOST SURVIVES HUMAN ATTACK” lol
This happened to me sighting in an AR-15 pattern rifle. Primer came out of the back of the case, fell down into the lower and wedged itself under the trigger. (Trigger was stuck down and wouldn’t reset.) glad it happened on the range and not in a dangerous situation. Glad you guys are ok. Keep up the good work. Love the videos you guys put out!
Well, this one should make the next edition of Alaska Bear Tales! Great job of telling the whole story. but when the bear was 5 yards away, Tana decided to pull her phone out for a video:
Tana: "well, if we get killed this video will put my kids through college"
Trevor "Cant miss now, If this bear hurts Tana, Adam will skin me alive"
Hahaha I think in my head I thought “they need to see how I die”
What a mess… Impressive handling of a situation gone seriously sideways.
A lot of lessons to unpack here.
Wow! What a harrowing experience. Huge props for surviving it! And even bigger props for sharing your experience and starting the Bristol Bay Retreats!
Many would disagree with parts of that statement...
It does not always take excessive pressure to push a primer out of the back of the case.
Cases with multiple firings on them can develop loose primer pockets that require almost no pressure to get them to fall back out. (I’ve had this happen with live un-fired reloaded ammunition in a plastic ammo box)If you use a hand priming tool you should be able to “feel” these cases when you seat the primer and cull them out.
Definitely the perfect storm to knock a rifle out of the fight though. Glad it worked out for you guys!
Switched the gun to ADG new brass and will come down a grain in h 1000 thoughts ?
@@adamgrenda2695 ADG is great. Down on powder charge could be good if you can get the SD's satisfactory. Is this Adam the pilot?
@@blakecrawford9303 ya I’ve been called worse than a pilot tho.
@@adamgrenda2695 Adam - one thing to look at if you're getting higher velocity than you think you should be per the amount of powder you're using - carbon building up in that barrel over hundreds of rounds will tighten up the bore and increase pressure and speed big time, and can cause issues. Using an abrasive bore cleaner such as Iosso or JB bore paste will be the most effective way to cut that carbon out. That may or may not be what's happening in your rifle, but it often gets overlooked!
@@ScottWeinand yes. I think Brian litz called this velocity migration, and it happens with very overbore cartridges.
I don't know how Joe Rogan hasn't picked this video up...
The fact that you took one rifle is crazy!
This story is beautiful in a primal way. You both relied and depended on each other to make it through this deadly encounter. Tana trusted Trevor with her life, knowing that he had what it took to defend them both in a life and death situation. Trevor trusted Tana's intuition that they should make their stand where they did. Together you both survived. Had either of you not reacted or trusted each other the way you did, things could have, and very likely would have, turned out very differently. Mad props to you both. Inspirational!
Relax pal it was a hunting trip, tables almost turned and they got lucky. That Bear 🐻 gets my respect went out like a true Grizzly!
Kenneth Beachy What is "beautiful" or "primal" about using 21 century technology to senselessly torture and kill a beautiful animal for no good reason? Our (primal) caveman ancestors hunted for survival with nothing but what nature offered as weapons (sticks and stones). The only thing sport hunters share with our primal ancestors are an unevolved savage brain. It's nothing to be proud of to make animals suffer and take their life just to hang the hide on your wall as a trophy. They brought everything but the kitchen sink from modern day pampered life and still almost got killed and they have children. I just don't see any "primal" connection, or feat in senselessly killing animals from over 400 yards away, with high powered weapons you bought at Walmart. There is no sport in bringing a gun to a fist fight. When the fist fighter almost beats you with your astronomical advantage (a plethora of modern weapons), it's an embarrassment, not something to boast about.
Even dumb animals rarely kill for reasons other than for survival (mainly food or defense). Sport hunting goes totally against nature and only depicts people of whom aren't in tune with nature. The exact opposite of what they are like claim.
Tana, IMO what you are experiencing is Post Traumatic Stress. But I bet you already know that. I have PTSD as a result of my military service so it’s easier for me to see it in others. It’s good you recognize it, and can talk it out. It can affect you for years to come if you don’t deal with it. What you did at the end of this video was what we are trained to do in the military and that is we run an after action report exactly like you did. What went wrong, what went right, what do we do differently or do the same. Down to the tiniest detail. Trevor and you are both in top physical condition to do what you both did up on that mountain that day. I believe that played a part in the positive outcome. Trevor and you are in the best position to figure out what happened and how to avoid it. I will not judge, because we all are fallible. Glad you both came out alive. Kudos to Trevor for accurate shooting in a life or death situation.
Wow! It's crazy how the most improbable things happen at the worst possible time. A primer falling into the perfect spot to cause a bolt malfunction. Life is crazy. I know it was a traumatic experience, but look at the bright side. You lived. You learned. And you'll be more prepared in the future. Keep the videos coming. I love you guys.
Life is crazy. Thank you for your support
It wasn't traumatic, it was intense.
What an incredible story. Adventures like that make you feel alive!
That being said. Any reloader knows that if you are getting higher than listed velocities you are working with higher than safe pressures. Something in your components, or your build is creating higher than listed safe pressures. It does not matter if your known “Hot load” has worked fine for long time. The end result was the incident was due to a known but ignored problem with your load.
I lived on Kodiak island for 2 years and worked around those bears on many occasions repairing problems that they caused.
You all are lucky and have a great story to share 🤙🏼
Thank you
You both are so lucky to get out and away with your lives intact, 2 rifles and 2 hand guns are a must..I am just glad that you both are OK and get home to see your loved ones again. Best regards for the future to all our Hunting and Stalking friends out there
So much learning in this video for the viewers. Thank you for your honesty and the lessons learned at the end that can benefit us all. I am so glad you’re okay. If anyone questions this, they didn’t speak or hear you speaking after this event. It’s also very easy to be a keyboard warrior from the couch.
Crazy video and story. Thanks for sharing with us!
HOLY WOW WOW!!!! That was so powerfully intense!! Thank goodness you two made it out safely. People have no idea how tough mother nature has designed her predators. My daughter was watching over my shoulder from time to time (but only I had the sound bc of my headphones) interrupted me and said, "Looks like that bear is starting to come for the hunters" - we watched the last part together and she doesn't even hunt!!
Thank you for sharing!! Love your videos.....
Hands down the best bear hunt video I’ve watched. I lived and hunted in Yukon for ten years. Everything went my way, thankfully. I heard numerous stories much like yours about enraged grizzlies, so I was always careful with my stalk and shot placement. The .338 WinMag. often giving one shot kills.
Your commentary at the end makes it a life lesson for hunters. Thank you for sharing your lessons learned and wisdom.
Sh-t rifle. How can you's let the beast suffer like that?
Your comment on how we rank in the food chain without our technology and high powered weapons is something we as hunters tend to forget, or worse yet, ignore. God was watching over you both and let you live to do exactly what your doing, helping to educate and better prepare others for a similar situation. You certainly don't need anyone telling you how foolish it was to not have back up weapons. I'm sure you'll never make that mistake again! Thank God your both alive and well. I appreciate the humility I felt when listening to you tell the tale. I learned a lot from your situation as well.
God is letting them kill majestic animals for no reason other than a good story to tell? Dumbest thing I've ever heard. No good reason to shoot the bear in the first place. To hang on a wall? Unexceptional
I'm glad you guys finally released all this. I listened to it on audio maybe a year ago. And always wondered what took the rifle out of service.
So I'm glad Adam described the situation with the primer. Everyone who uses a rifle needs to get a firm grasp on that failure. Knowing what to look for could obviously save your life or someone else's.
Going over the mistakes at the end was a great idea. Anyone can learn from you sharing. Adrenaline, stress,trauma.....the first time i felt all those i thought i was going to throw up for hours. Felt wrecked the whole next day. But it is something we can get used to. I love all the stuff you guys show. Keep it up. Glad everyone is OK.
I've been waiting for this episode for quite a while. Tana you have been my wife's health coach for several years and I knew the story from IG. So grateful you all came home in one piece. I can relate to what you said about trauma. Mine wasn't from a bear but rather a timber accident. I now listen to my intuition. Thank you for sharing this story.
Wow. Epic adventure with a "lessons learned" summary. Very well done. Give yourselves huge credit for not panicking. Glad you're both ok.
Lesson here is leave these poor animals alone . Doesn't matter if the animal it's self is vicous. That's what tf they are they preditors. U people make me sick tf u mean u glad they both ok after they went out of the way to kill a wild animal
@jakemccloon2297 they should've gotten mauled by that bear
So impressed with the bear!! He showed such heart going out on his shield like that, despite having 3 bullets lodged in him, instead of running away he decided fuck you I'm coming after whatever is trying to kill me, I'm in awe!!
You two held it together and took care of business. I doubt most of us could have focused like you did and come out alive. Me included. 🤜🤛
Hi Guys, (from Australia) another great video. My wife and I were on the edge of our seats watching this.
Tana, you will have people criticise you but as long as you learnt from this, which you did, you live to hunt another day and more importantly hug your children and husband. People who never make mistakes, never try anything in their life. Please don't take this the wrong way but maybe Someone was looking out for you. Stay safe.
I knew how this ended and I was still at the edge of my seat the whole time. Absolutely wild experience and so glad you made it out alive. Amazing story telling as well!
I was in a bad situation in Montana. Long story but the main point is we didn't have the gear, we relied on tech, and we ended up lost in a blizzard. We survived through the night but had hypothermia. It was rough and when an elk bugled the next morning we didn't even care. We just had to get out. We turned on the heated seats and cranked the heat. The seats weren't turned down and neither was the heat for the next ten hours. Glad to be alive.Thanks for sharing. You are right - always bring your gear.
Thank you for sharing, and glad you are alive!!!!
@@Stuckntherut1 #metoo. LOL
I think it's great that you guys could reflect on what happened, what mistakes were made, and share it with others. Very commendable, and it gives us all a chance to plan better, no matter what we are hunting or where!
When you run, you become prey.
Wounding or hurting a bear, the bear will kill you.
Good video for all those who think they can shoot a bear and survive. Most dont.
Thou shall not kill-Gods law. Maybe they survived, to give them time to make up for their sins.
@@DebbieTomkoSUNSHINElmfao our lord is talking about killing each other. Nothing at all to do with animals 😂😂😂
I know things don't always go as planned but a lot of people keep calling the best hunting video they have seen. It's really a bummer. You guys almost got hurt and the bear suffered pretty badly. I'm glad your both ok and definitely some good lessons to be had.
WOW after the bear ate 3 rounds from the .338 he was coming for revenge! It then took 4 more rounds from a 454 to bring him to a stop. It is stories like this that cement the reputation of the Grizzly as one of the toughest animals on earth to stop. Thanks for sharing...... that was a hell of a story.
Wow! I will never look at your guys channel the same again. How you guys made it out of there alive I do not know. What true grit and character from the both of you!
I would say congratulations on getting a fine bear, but it’s more like congratulations on surviving!
The bear is one thing, but staying the night on the mountain is completely another.
But you guys did have some survival gear. So 👍!
Jesus is King
I can't express enough appreciation for you sharing this video and the humble approach you took to the experience. This lesson could, and may likely save someone's life one day :)
This video was mesmerizing!! I've hunted all my life, but this would have been terrifying, and to think that you lost your pistol, but were able to find it, was all that stood between life and almost sure death! What an epic tale! Glad you survived!
The most unbelievable Bear video I have ever seen. Your shot placement on all 3 shots seemed perfect. The fact that he came after you from that far after those shots is a brutal lesson in just how incredible these beasts are. You guys handled this in a manner I would hope I could muster but I guess you would have to be there. Amazing video and a great explanation throughout. What a memory.
Can make a whole movie outta this now wayyyy god bless sheeesh,,,,,,”it feels like I’m gonna die out here” 1:45 haha
There is no other way I can say it. This is the best hunting video I've ever watched hands down. I totally left my bedroom for 20 minutes.
The sale of 454 casulls ^^^ awesome video guys!
Everyone needs one!
@@tanagrenda2316or a brace of two in their case. 🙀
A little late to the party… thank you for sharing the hunt and the lessons learned. Also channeling this experience into training others is how you take something like this and make a tangible difference. Godspeed!
Poor bear had to suffer
Dude you ever see a bear eat another animal? The way the bear died is way more humane than how the bear makes other animals suffer, if we’re gonna be a bitch about it at least think about it first
@@light-rd7vq it's called the fckn wildlife you dope
Very interesting video your going to get a lot of feed back here and some won’t be nice, however glad your both alive, Trevor balls of steal man most guys would have missed at that range shaking so bad. Like your explanation at the end of what happened and totally agree with your decision on back up to your back up. Small fold up 12 gauge with 3” slugs and extended mag would be nice however weight on a back pack hunt is a hindrance. This time would have been relief…Glad you had a handgun revolver, sometime autos fail where as a 5 shot or 6 shot revolver very unlikely to fail. Just not very accurate at a great distance unless you shoot lots. Great video…..
I already know how this ends and I’m still so nervous watching it! So glad y’all are safe
A wonderful blend of courage and humility. Thank you for your transparency. When you're willing to share as you did, we all learn. This is so important because every last one of us is fully capable of making a wrong decision. God bless, Miles
Thank you Miles
Thats an awesome hunt...No way would i not take a back up rifle guys ..Ive had guns jam before... Especially in weather like that
Hell of a hunt! Absolutely terrifying! Glad you guys made it out safely. This is a prefect example why I honestly can't see myself going after a big brown. Congrats on the big boar though!
Not enough consideration is given to bullet construction. One thing to learn from this is that thin jacketed bullets have no place on a grizzly hunt. A 338 ultra mag with deeper penetrating bullets would have been a game changer. Having said that these two had way more guts and grit than the majority of us out here. I am more than impressed that they made it. Well done guys!
I'm thinking 375 solid. Same round used for Cape Buffalo.
the guid was reckless in more ways than one : bullet type and shot distance
@@jtlc100accubonds are fine but shouldn’t have taken a shot beyond 200
The persistence of that animal, with all those shots in, to walk 400 yards just to fuck up whatever thing just tried to kill it is absolutely insane. Scary as fuck. Glad yas are ok and now you have a great story!!
Thank you for your support
First - I am extremely happy that you are both okay. So many lessons from this and I am really glad you shared this - it took a lot of courage to post this video. Please send this to our Prime Minister who has basically banned every hand gun in Canada. Without that gun you may not be here to tell your story. I watched the video a couple of times and I think you shot the toughest bear in the world. I can not believe it kept coming after losing that much blood. Once again - huge fan and so happy you shared this. Dean
“Three really good shots, one through the vitals”. Do you honestly think it was through the vitals if it’s casually walking down the hill as if nothing ever happened? If it was through the vitals it would have been dead already. 😂
2 through the vitals. And grizz are probably the toughest animal in North America. They can eat up a ton of rounds from a large calibre rifle and still make it a long ways.
Didn't you notice all the blood spewing from it's mouth?
1- Better holster for the 454 ! My Son and I are Alaskans and like you folks ,learned a lot of hard lessons
so when hunting moose in heavy willows it's easy to run into Brown bear . So we both carry the same caliber rifle and revolver , you just never know . We use 375 HH mags or 300 win mags and fresh Nosler ammo ! Hot loads are not necessary . So much to learn and you learn something new every trip. At night sleep under one cover back to back will prevent hypothermia . Thanks for the story =glad your safe.
When I first started watching this, I thought the title was basically just click-bait for views. Well. I ate my words and offer my apologies. This was one of the best hunting videos I’ve ever watched on this platform. The explanations. The footage. I would’ve tried to get closer than 470yds, but, in hindsight, damn good thing you didn’t!! Like someone else said, 3 good shots in him, with exit hole verification via video. All the blood in the snow. That was a 570-580yd trek for him from his bed, to the rocks. He was pissed off and determined to get you. I’ve always known bears have a mean-streak, especially wounded, but I think this one might take the award. And a COMPLETE BRUTE of a specimen. Good job on Tana to say lets wheel out of there. At least you had the rocks there. Her talking about it cresting the ridge, then bee-lining to you two, and her seeing and hearing it charging at you, gave me chills my entire body over. Cannot imagine what would be going through my head. Honestly, bears are my biggest worry/fear over EVERYTHING else in this world. I just picked up a Ruger Redhawk in .44. I almost wanted a Taurus, but decided against it. Maybe I shouldn’t have. Glad that Casull did its job as intended when you needed it most!! Again, HELL OF A VIDEO!! Glad you lived to tell the story and show the video. I’ll be saving this one to show to people.
To shoot at this bear at the distance of 475 Yards without real broadside view is a big shame for this amateur Hunter.
stupid
Crazy experience, I wish she could have filmed the whole encounter with the pistol but I totally understand you had more important things to worry about lol
12 ga with slugs is a good option as well as a backup. Great job on staying alive! 👍
You forgot the kitchen sink. Thanks for the video I thought there for a minute. I was gonna have to clean my Drawers out. Good old Tours, gets the job done again. I'm a wheel gun man myself. You may not get as many shots off. But Then again they don't jam as easy either. Good luck with your hunts and stay safe.
Thank you
Holy smokes you guys, what an adventure, thank you for sharing it, and so glad it worked out for you both! Your follow up information is priceless, EVERYONE who heads into the wild (especially Alaska) needs to listen and watch your story, Sometimes there are things out of your control, sometimes not, be aware, be prepared! Awesome video!! Good luck with your "Womens in wilderness retreat" super idea!
What a hunt! I was so engrossed in the story line, the lack of bear photos was lost on me until you apologized. Congratulations, and thank you for the explanation about the gun mishap!
This is probably the best bear hunting story on YT.
I greatly appreciate the transparency along with the closing recap of lessons learned. We'll done and glad everyone returned home safely.
Wooow!!! I’ve been waiting for this video since you shared the experience on Instagram. I’m so glad you survived. The will to survive is unreal. Thanks for sharing the mistakes and how to do it in the future.
This got my adrenaline going just watching and listening to the story. Amazing job keeping his cool in those shooting conditions. Awesome video guys and glad everyone made it out safe.
I can’t believe the Taurus worked under pressure😂🤣🤷♂️
Trevor you are the smartest hunter I have ever seen on utube. Most hikers and hunters don’t bring a side arm, I think it is a must.
Happy that both Trevor and tana are ok and got out of this safely. It ain’t no joke when a bear is going after you, happened to me once on a fishing/moose hunting trip and now I’m more prepared than I used to be.
I rarely comment on any episode on you tube. I do enjoy the learning opportunity from this episode. I applaud you all for posting this episode. The learning portion was the most valuable. Hopefully from what you experienced you can apply to the absolute safety of your future hunts. That way you all can continue to enjoy the life that God has allowed you to live and share with others. Even though someone feels comfortable shooting at “X” distance does not mean common sense should be taken out of the equation. Shooting is far different than hunting. Blessings to you all on future hunts.
Whoa!!!!! That, my friends, is a tale that will be told for generations to come. You're damn rockstars!
This is the best bear hunting video I've ever seen. I'm so glad it all worked out in the end, but that was so crazy! I want to know what you guys were thinking as he shot his last shot in the pistol, had to reload, knowing the bear was still alive 5 yards from you!! What do you do if it's still coming and you're shaking so bad from adrenalin because a freaking bear is 5 yards from you trying to eat you!! With no bullets in the gun...... man. I can't even imagine what you guys went through. So glad you're both ok! Amazing video!!
Amazing story. I'm glad you both lived to tell about it. Hopefully, someone learns from your mistakes as you did, and it saves them from having the same thing happen to them.
Absolutely
Incredible tale of adversity and perseverance! I'm sad you shot the bear for the hide only and not for the meat. As a new hunter I cannot imagine going to all that effort to then leave behind the carcass and not honour what the animal offers up when it dies at your hand. Glad you guys made it out okay!
Happy New Year and happy and safe hunting 👍👍
You have obviously never tried bear meat. It's not worth packing out
@@stevekremer5942 Gator meat is delicious 😋
This is why I laugh at the fact that people willingly carry a 10mm for bear defense because they live in a fantasy world.
This bear took 3 rifle rounds ran hundreds of yards and then took 5 rounds from a .454 point blank.
Bears are tough as nails and you realize how small any caliber is when they are that close to you.
That being said I am
glad you guys made it out alive to share this incredible story.
Holy Jeezz.. that was intense adventure.. that alone gave me PTSD. I was so into that moment that I almost pulled my .357 Magnum as soon the bear appear behind the rock. I am happy u guys survived and unhurt. You desrved a like and subscribed from an old infantry guy. Thank you for sharung this wonderful experience
What an amazing story. Something that most hunters never think will happen, really can happen.
Great video. Thank you for sharing your experience. I've been doing outdoor adventures my entire life and it doesn't have to be a dramatic bear hunt that can kill you. All too often it's the simple things that people overlook. I learned a lot by watching your hunt, much thanks for all the efforts you put into these videos.
1:55 excellent packing job! Compact, low profile! Well done! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Hats off to the bear, he was in a life & death struggle himself & gave it the old college try. I remember a story of a hunter & guide getting killed by a grizzly at their elk kill up in BC. You never know when hunting dangerous game on their home court.
First.So glad you two are OK.And thank you for sharing the whole story.Your family educates a lot of people in many different ways.👍🏻
The first thing I love about you guys is your love for your family second thing is your honesty… man what a hunt… I thank God
Thank you
