I'm sitting way over in Africa and my heart was thumping. Right now on the eve of my 60th year I am hunting with a slingshot , cast my own lead ammo and I am having fun. Can't wait for my son to return from Wisconsin with an old Bear Super Grizzly I was gifted by an old hunting client from Texas. After many years of guiding I need to put in time hunting for my own pleasure. If I can master the bow skills , I aim to treat myself to some fun. Thanks Clay. Awesome video.
Really? 4000 views in 2 hrs but only 400 likes?? Yall just watching to talk shit or because your jealous?? Why not like the video?? Clay Hayes thank you for all your content. Ive been following you for about 7 or 8 years now and you have taught so many so much. Thank You for what all you've done for archery. I think its about time you do a show with Uncle Ted
Jealousy always brings out the toxic miserable humans. They have to project their own self hatred onto others instead of owning their issues and working on them. Be honest with yourself people cus most of the time, you’re the problem in your own life. Taking accountability is what cool people do.
I would be in absolute heaven fellas!!! I envy the both of you for being able to have those experiences!! I'm sure none of it came easy. Those were some great hunts.
Clay, I love all your videos. But this Alaska series is by far my favorite. I hope there’s more, and I hope you and Chevie can hunt again next year. Thanks for sharing this, had me on the edge of my seat. Bow hunting is so fun, I got my first archery animal this year in north west Alberta , nice mature bull elk. Cheers man
Awesome video Clay. And Chevie enjoined it a lot. That river crossing with no boots or pants man that is something else. 38F is about 3C. Water that cold and you did it twice. Couple of time in the army when I had to bathe with cold water you feel like your testicles get into your stomach. Kudos to you really.
You'd have been drawing as it turned and had it down Clay... that's just experience... Chevie will get there... I'd have been looking for escape routes. Those things are huge. Great trip up there... thanks for the footage
Beyond excellent, my friend. What you have given other hunters, including me, is a series of experiences of inestimable value. Thank you, Clay. I can't resist asking when you're going to tell Liz that it's time to move to Alaska. Hah. All the best, Chris (in Maine)
Great footage! I know exactly what he's talking about. I don't enjoy hunting much anymore. I like guiding but I'm not good enough to have people pay me. I dislocated my shoulder a decade ago. I haven't been able to bow hunt since. My joy of hunting left when my ability to bow hunt left.
@@J0SH881 Mostly just pain....lol. I had a horse fall on me while roping. A calf took out his front legs. The bow hunting is a great loss, for certain, but I guess I'm fortunate to be alive.
That was simply excellent! Well orchestrated, filmed & edited! Takes a bit to get the blood pumping at my age (75+),but ya'll did it! Got a question: Noticed Chevy getting brush twixt the string and limbs on his bow - back in the 60's (?), we used "brush buttons" to solve that problem - have you tried them? If so, opinion? Again, excellent hunt - thankee for sharing... Jim Stewart
Clay, huge respect for this video! Clay, could you tell about your plan if that moose is looking for revenge? Because I heard a lot of stories how people and dogs were seriously damaged or even got killed by an injured moose, and I don’t know what’s the best way to survive the situation when a moose goes really angry about your arrows 😮
I just love traditional bows I love bows I can't stand training wheels on my bow I know they're called compounds but I call them training wheels no offense to anybody out there that does like compounds it's my personal preference
Well that was exciting, though not as exciting as it must have been for you guys. When I saw the thumbnail I was wondering how the hell you got that high. I’ve never hunted like that, but the times I’ve seen people do it, it was mostly a second guy calling from well behind, just like you guys did.
Hey clay awesome video man great stuff , I just have a quick question: I have a 62" hickory bow and my goal is to hit 28" draw , is that advisable? Thank you so mych❤
So probably it’s not that bad that this giant didn’t get an arrow cause moose is a very dangerous animal especially injured. I can’t even imagine myself pulling a string and giving a shot to this huge animal being that damn close to him and knowing that’s gonna be a child’s play for him to kill me on a spot 😅
Subject: Concern for Wildlife and Ethical Choices Hi , I hope you’re doing well. I wanted to reach out and share my concerns regarding the treatment of wild animals. I’ve noticed that many animals have been harmed and even killed, which is deeply troubling, especially when it comes to preserving our natural wildlife. These creatures play a vital role in our ecosystem, and I believe it's important to protect them. I hope you can consider more ethical choices that align with preserving wildlife and respecting nature. Every action counts when it comes to protecting the world we all share.
Did you explain why you want to be loud when moose hunting? I've been around dozens in my life, but that's been in the Rocky's, so they've always been used to seeing humans.
Awkward, I got pokey sticks, no bang-bang! Man up, Clay is gonna walk your legs clean off! Look at the bright side, bow is lighter than boom stick.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@phatmatt_outdoors8149 you make no sense. Yes, Clay is a renowned bow hunter. He is also a maker of very fine hand hewn recurves and longbows. He even makes his own arrows, hell, he’s almost as good a shot with a bow as I am…🙄
Moose are not smart animals in my experience, I guess being big helps. I've walked up on deer walking up on me, I've had bears make me about crap my pants getting close on the ground with a bow that wouldn't do anything if he turned on me.and Ive had Eastern and shiras moose where I could spit on them . Nothing wants to kill you, you have to do something wrong to make them aggressive.
@@clayhayeshunter I was shooting my Satori up until a couple of months ago, got a brand spanking new left shoulder two Mondays ago. Probably won’t be able to fling pointy sticks until after the first of the year. Got all four corners done now, two new knees, two new shoulders, hell, I’m off to the races. Might have to go chase some elk down here in AZ. Getting the new knees was the best thing I ever did. After 20 years I can actually go up, go down, and squat and not a pain to be had. Hope my left shoulder turns out as well as my right shoulder did, I’m excited about getting back out there again, I saw this elk once…
Why can't clay hunt as well? Is there some kind of special privileges that only some people get that the rest of us dont? .....again and again? Over and over? Enough to drive a wedge of resentment between tax payers and tax recipients?
I mean if your curious read up on the the regs in Alaska. Most likely due to tags being on a timeframe and/or only drawing a tag for a certain location.
Some call it manufactured discrimination and overall I respect natives being able to hunt, I am white and sometimes jealous but others get downright passed about lack of equal chances so I say natives should buy tags but not be in a lottery, and others unless married to native should have lottery opportunities for free for those who don't win don't pay anything

😂 My ID son thinks "Uncle Ted" is actually his uncle. He even put a framed picture out of a magazine on his desk.

Love this dudes videos. Never "liked" a single one 😂😂 bunch of weird assumptions you're making that seem fueled by equally strange emotions.
I like the way Chevy put it. Like a kid with a slingshot. Very exciting hunt so, close.
I would be in absolute heaven fellas!!! I envy the both of you for being able to have those experiences!! I'm sure none of it came easy. Those were some great hunts.
Oh yeah
Clay, I love all your videos. But this Alaska series is by far my favorite. I hope there’s more, and I hope you and Chevie can hunt again next year.

Awesome, congrats!
Me too. LOL
Stay safe, brother .
May YAH Bless
Awesome!
So cool that you can bring back that same feeling when you first started hunting as a kid, feeling the same adrenaline rush!
Very cool. 👍
Great video!!! So close!! When you get one with a long bow your hooked! Thanks guys
Awesome video Clay. And Chevie enjoined it a lot. That river crossing with no boots or pants man that is something else. 38F is about 3C. Water that cold and you did it twice. Couple of time in the army when I had to bathe with cold water you feel like your testicles get into your stomach. Kudos to you really.
It's thrilling just to watch! You gotta make this an annual outing with Chevie. Great content!
That was intense. I thought that second one was going to walk up and sit in his lap. Amazing.
Nate
You'd have been drawing as it turned and had it down Clay... that's just experience... Chevie will get there... I'd have been looking for escape routes. Those things are huge. Great trip up there... thanks for the footage

Wow that was so intense 😆 I nearly pissed my pants just watching 😂 outstanding vid gents what an experience 👍🇬🇧
Bows, Bacon, Bulls! Ha! Hopefully, we'll all be there when Chev connects!
Awesome, I really thought Chevie was going to get it on the last encounter! Great stuff!
You and me both!
That was awesome! Taking off your boots and pants? You're such a badass, Clay.
My oldest son killed his first Blacktail today. Excellent post gut and skinnning content. Enjoying your footage and stories from Southern Oregon.
That was intense! You don’t get footage like that too often. Right time right place.
Awesome hunt, it’s s much more exciting hunting at close range!
100%
Great footage!
I know exactly what he's talking about. I don't enjoy hunting much anymore. I like guiding but I'm not good enough to have people pay me.
I dislocated my shoulder a decade ago. I haven't been able to bow hunt since. My joy of hunting left when my ability to bow hunt left.
Dang, i cant imagine what you felt, when you dislocated your shoulder
@@J0SH881
Mostly just pain....lol.
I had a horse fall on me while roping. A calf took out his front legs.

@@nohillforahighstepper ouch that must have hurt, but atleast you definitely lived
I was on the edge of my seat. Good job guys that was intense
Wow!!! Great experience. Thanks
The suspense gets me every time.
Holy crap that was intense!
So close
Great footage
Love you're. Video guys, that's what living is about 👍
Just a awesome video, thanks guy's, shakyjake out.
Excellent vid
Welcome to the world of bow hunting!
Awesome video clay
Beautifully filmed and edited.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This guy can speak moose fluently.

Love ya show clay if ever in tn I got some big whitetail to hunt
in winter southern vt i crossed paths w 3 moose. then the 4th i got in his face said i was done w the drama. big goofballs
Holy smokes! That’s cool! Chevie has to learn to draw a little bit faster
At 5:21, what is in the upper right corner watching you two. Is that a twenty foot sasquatch, could be. Good video
WOW !!!!
Boots and pants off stalk. You never saw Fred Bear do that.
🤣
i think we were all saying now now now at the same time :)
31:22
Chevy is gonna need a Spear for those close encounters.
Oy.
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
Was just wondering when this was gonna be uploaded
I just love traditional bows I love bows I can't stand training wheels on my bow I know they're called compounds but I call them training wheels no offense to anybody out there that does like compounds it's my personal preference
Beautiful work brother 💪🏻🏹
Can you tell us what was his setup
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have taken 3 moose under 20yards and it’s a rush ! I felt small and I was holding a rifle .
Well that was exciting, though not as exciting as it must have been for you guys. When I saw the thumbnail I was wondering how the hell you got that high.
I’ve never hunted like that, but the times I’ve seen people do it, it was mostly a second guy calling from well behind, just like you guys did.
I bet eating gallons of those would make you crap through a screen door😂
It’ll keep ya regular 🤣
@clayhayeshunter lol I bet
Bring me some of that please 🙏🙏🙏🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
Hey clay awesome video man great stuff , I just have a quick question: I have a 62" hickory bow and my goal is to hit 28" draw , is that advisable? Thank you so mych❤
Yeah, that’s doable
Damn!
Clay have you ever hunted blacktail on the west coast?
So probably it’s not that bad that this giant didn’t get an arrow cause moose is a very dangerous animal especially injured. I can’t even imagine myself pulling a string and giving a shot to this huge animal being that damn close to him and knowing that’s gonna be a child’s play for him to kill me on a spot 😅
Are you also making a bow, with Clay? 22:55

It said you had to be Native to hunt there. Must be reservation land.
@@lorinichols9996meaning Alaskan native plenty of area up there where that's the case
Some call it manufactured discrimination and overall I respect natives being able to hunt, I am white and sometimes jealous but others get downright passed about lack of equal chances so I say natives should buy tags but not be in a lottery, and others unless married to native should have lottery opportunities for free for those who don't win don't pay anything
Oh the preferential treatment goes far beyond just hunting and fishing. Far, far beyond.
It's cold, it's wet, but at least you don't have to worry about snakes....
True!
