Excellent tale! Being a 71 year old swamp runner, I could feel the emotional intensity from the start to the finish. These mountain adventures are thrilling. Thank you!
You had an inner sense to keep hunting through the blinding fog and continued in faith, the hunter had prayed for success, against all expectations the fog lifted at just the right moment, you located the trophy ram, the shot was true & a lifelong dream was fulfilled. How can any listener now say that there is no God?
So glad I found your channel!! After losing my father (who was an avid hunter and who taught me my love for hunting), my will to hunt seemed empty when I lost him; but these stories are amazing and a beautiful reminder of the love for hunting and conservation and memories!! Thank you for sharing these stories ♥️!!!!
Great to see the pictures of this hunt finally. Pretty sure you told us this one in the past without the pictures. Great pictures and story. Thanks for sharing Steve!
Now that is a great story with an awesome ending! I know too well that feeling of KNOWING your intended game is right over the next hill or in a coulee without seeing it. People who have hunted with me get kinda weirded out when I tell them "I can feel it." and I have yet to 'feel it' without the game being there.
Man what a trip, I gotta admit that I couldn’t do it. Titanium in the spine and wrecked knee’s from Motocross but if I could I would. Congrats on that trophy! What a memory
True stories of hunts that bring the listener right along with you. Thanks for touching hearts, passion for big game and the dangers of the outdoors all together.
Extremely Beautiful story.. so very spiritual.. for sure.. I haven’t ever hunted, my grandpa was a hunter .. but I am addicted to your hunt stories.. love your honesty 🦋
Thank you so much for the videos and the stories a lot of hunters will never be able to afford to go on that hunt so it means a lot to be able to sit here and vividly imagine the stories you’re telling like you’re sitting there in his shoes and hunting with you!!! thank you so much You’re a great storyteller
Steve, I love to hear you tell your experiences! Your detail, your passion and yet your compassion for those and things around you. Your awesome. I feel as though I know you. My late husband was a hunter and a registered skeet shooter. Oh how he would love your stories. Keep up your passion, that is why we are here.
You make hunting possible for people like me who have no way to go over seas and hunt. Your story telling is immense and your personality shines through. You are a master of your art and also a gentleman
I love your stories, you got my attention :-). I'm going to keep you in my Prayers to keep you safe. with all your close calls you already definitely have a Guardian Angel looking after you.
I love hearing stories like this of somebody's dreams literally coming true... we all get to live vicariously a little bit through others and I can only Imagine.
Dude, please don't change a thing. Your vids are so inspirational. This is one the best stories yet. Keep doing what you do. And keep the stories coming.
Thanks for sharing that story! The hunter reminded me of my dad’s love of hunting! I was riveted to every word and could see and almost feel the tension on moving spotting scope and rifle. Thanks for listening to that inner voice (spirit) telling you to complete hunters life dream. Your a good man!
I think the "Almighty" has given you a plethora of blessings, talents,and skills! All the while protecting you along the way! Putting these individuals onto world class game then reliving the hunts with all of us. Thank you kindly Sir!
God what an awesome story. I just found your channel a couple weeks ago because of the bigffot videos, but I’ve been power watching your hunt stories since.
Love these videos especially today. I am stuck in bed sicker than a dog with the flu. So i just kicked everyone (wife and kids..dogs) out of my bedroom shut the door and turned these videos on and lay there and watch or listen. Just takes my mind away into a nice sleep, then wake up and watch more, love this guy and the stories!!
I believe I've seen this one before but I watch the entirety again it is outstanding you tell a story like nobody tells the story definitely one in a million
I was there on top of that mtn w/ you & David. Oh my gosh what a great story. I bet that old man never forgot you Steve. The power of prayer. Amen. First time i left Texas I was 25 and went to work on a ranch outside Jackson Hole.Wy. i learned what real hunting is. I learned of you from Cam Buckner @ Dixie Cryptid and Scott Carpenter. Love all you do. Keep on keeping on. What a good guy you are. Take it easy. Jenny
That was a great video, thank you. I enjoy listening to hunting stories that can explain whats going on with the hunter a helluvalot more than a video of the actual hunt. You did a great job.
Great story Steve. Your telling of it, the absolute possibility of failure ever present and you listened to your gut. That feeling that made you persevere to complete the task in spite of the fog, the rain, not knowing where they were on the side of the mountain, yet you stalked them using the limited information available to the ultimate in perfect endings. That’s what makes you the world class guide you are. Well done sir. Very well done.
O.M.G. KODOS STEVE. I've been thru Alot. And I can tell you for a fact there is Something up above that Listens. And answers your wishes. If your worthy. KoDos AGAIN and Amen
I’m so glad that I have found you and your videos, the way you take your viewers step by step through the hunt, I’m personally not a hunter, but I do know how vital hunters are in the grand scheme of things/nature, I also know that it’s not just for sport, you’re taking the meat so the animal didn’t die in vain!!! Anyway, if you ever need someone to type your stories, I’m your gal!!! Hahahaha
THANKS BROTHER! Actually I live in Northern Utah and although due to disabilities it is extremely difficult for me to hunt I still love to attend the Hunting Expo that we have here. I could almost swear that I've met this gentleman some years back , if not him, his twin telling about the Greatest Sheep hunt ever.
I would love to go on a hunt with this story teller he sounds like he knows what he's doing, but the thing is that my wish is to hunt several animals with him.
When I'm watching you and listening to this hunt and that gentleman that was with you going all over and through the fog and getting it Ram it choke me up cuz I know how hard that hunt was and how much that meant to both of you it's just great listening to your hunts I can go all day and just listen to him it's like I'm there thank you very much for what you do for all of us
Hey man, I love your videos. Inspiring stuff. However, the reason I love them is because it feels like im around a fire with a seasoned hunter. The music sometimes ruins it for me because your stories are genuine and exciting enough to leave the music behind. I know how hard it can be to keep things as simple as possible but my favorite videos of yours are just you talking to the camera with no frills.
You are the best. You have a ton of talent, as a rockentour (excellent story teller), great guide. I love your videos. I can return home from a terrible day of work to cheer up after five min of your channel. I still laugh thinking or wondering about what John from Los Angles is doing, if he is not in prison! Wish I could hunt w you some day. You are the best.
Funny thing is, the people listening to this story who are not hunters may have difficulty understanding the emotion, the work, sacrifice and suffering that goes into these type of hunts. I'm an armchair sheep hunter, but I do hunt elk in the Rockies of the Bob Marshall Wilderness, the Cascades and Idaho. Great story, I was getting emotional just listening to it! Thanks Steve..
The voice or feeling you had that told you or gave you guidance was the Holy Spirit! Jesus Christ and his Holy Father wanted you to take this huge ram, you said it yourself, no way should you have hiked thru the heavy fog, several other comments you made indicated that you should not have continued forward motion, you did and suddenly the fog lifted? what are the odds? You are a good man, you help others, you are a motivator, not a condescending ass. You bring good to every hunt that you guide. I am a faithful Christian, good things come to those that lift others up. Sure we have bad times, but in general, miracles happen, this hunt resembled a miracle for several mentioned points. Keep being the good guy and good will come your way Mr. way to go!
In the Church we call that guide you listened too ,the Holy Spirit. Thank you once again for yet another well told story and a awesome hunt.
Excellent tale! Being a 71 year old swamp runner, I could feel the emotional intensity from the start to the finish. These mountain adventures are thrilling. Thank you!

That was a great story! I'm so glad your Utah hunter got his sheep. Thanks for sharing.
Now that is a great story with an awesome ending! I know too well that feeling of KNOWING your intended game is right over the next hill or in a coulee without seeing it.

Man what a trip, I gotta admit that I couldn’t do it. Titanium in the spine and wrecked knee’s from Motocross but if I could I would. Congrats on that trophy! What a memory
That was one of the greatest hunting stories I've ever heard!!! Gave me cold chills and brought tears to my eyes!! Thanks Steve!!!
I'm getting emotional for him . What an amazing hunt.

My late husband was a hunter and a registered skeet shooter. Oh how he would love your stories.
Keep up your passion, that is why we are here.
you definitely took us on a sheep-hunt with you in this story , you should consider being a writer, great job, thanks for sharing..
Nowadays he would probably make more money like this over TH-cam. Lots of people get rich over TH-cam, not as many people read nowadays
I am hooked on your stories Damn, I can't get enough of them.
Jeez, my hands are shaking on the keyboard and definitely felt the emotions!!
Best hunting story ever!!
You make hunting possible for people like me who have no way to go over seas and hunt. Your story telling is immense and your personality shines through. You are a master of your art and also a gentleman

I love your stories, you got my attention :-). I'm going to keep you in my Prayers to keep you safe. with all your close calls you already definitely have a Guardian Angel looking after you.
Jesus!!! That was emotional to hear, was like I was there... I even shed a tear!
I love hearing stories like this of somebody's dreams literally coming true... we all get to live vicariously a little bit through others and I can only Imagine.

That’s the best damn hunting story you’ve shared!
