Growing up with a family owned farm was an incredible fortune that I've only just started to fully appreciate. Surrounded by avid hunters and fishermen as relatives, I was groomed from an early age as an outdoorsman. The older and more independent I became, the more I expanded my outdoor hobbies. Good Thrill Hunting is a channel where I can video archive all my cherished experiences to share with family and friends and relive when I'm older. I try to tailor my videos to inspire and teach others who are less experienced but interested in learning how to engage in similar adventures.
ents @stephenballard3759. 0 seconds ago That's a really good story and a great recovery. Go back over your video here and all of your thinking, be honest with yourself and decide what to do. I personally think you need to lower your draw weight a few pounds and raise your arrow weight. You basically missed two shots at that first bull. Your second shot was a miss, in the ass. You could have been shooting the world's deadliest arrow set up at a range that short. If you hit meat you hit arteries. You may not hit big arteries, but if you hit enough smaller arteries...... . I once sent a seven hundred grain arrow through both hands and out the other side on a big cow elk. She died, without hitting the femoral artery, in a few minutes
Your arrow was within a couple inches of the fletch though. That's a good penetration, you got deep. I want more information though. Was the arrow inside or outside of his pelvis? Did you hit the femoral or the iliac artery or the abdominal aorta?
Hey man! I’m the guy who met you near Sprague Creek! Thanks for the tips and it was trippy meeting you in the flesh. After I saw you I was able to catch a some really nice Brookies on the east side, a few rainbows, and a fat cutthroat in the skinny water above Red Rocks. Anyway, I was a great trip and even cooler getting g to meet you. Keep the sweet videos coming!
Dude! Awesome video! Mad props for doing all of that over one night that hike is mean, and with the gear you were carrying, you're a badass! I've been up to trout/arrow a few times and let's just say the biggest trout in those lakes sure ain't the cuttys...
My wife and I were the ones that ran into you coming from Upper Two Medicine Lake. I hope you did well. I just gotta say an Alpaca makes some nice rafts. I’ve done a 3 day trip with a pack weight of 41 pounds and my wife’s was a little lighter. They are pricey, but we’ve had ours 13 years now.
Anything significant happen to you guys during this trip? Entered the bwca a few days after this whole ordeal and I’ve been wanting to hear some stories but can’t find much online.
The road to our entry point washed out in three places. However by the time we got to the parking lot they had temporary fixes in place so vehicles could get out. Other than that, just a lot of water bailing out of the canoes and a fire to dry ourselves and gear off
@@wesKEVQJ haha gotcha, yeah it was wild. The outfitter said he had over 8" in his rain gauge in Ely, but we got hit with the worst of it up where we were. He is 86 years old and said he's never seen anything like this before.
I'm a bit hesitant to burn spots because of the negative ecological impact of millions of people seeing names of specific spots on the internet and flocking there. I may share specific names of certain lakes, but others I might only slip in hints so the ones who are willing to research and work to find spots will be rewarded.
Hey thanks for a great video. So many on here don’t fully understand conservation and the steps that you’ve taken here to thoughtfully harvest these fish with respect, but you never lose your cool in the comments. You must have an iron will. One thing: you shared a link in another review of your kayak which is probably the cheapest and best reviewed on the market, the intex challenger. Can you share a little about your experience with the kayak in terms of portability? You hike a hellova long way with it, and at 25 pounds that seems reasonable, but how bulky is it deflated? Is it tippy? Leaky? Would recommend?
Funny you ask, I'm actually currently editing a gear shakedown video where I put my kayak in my pack and show the full weigh in. As far as tippy, no. Crazy stable actually. Being canvas, it rolls over the waves and morphs to match the shape of the water surface. I've taken some serious waves on St. Mary and felt totally comfortable, more comfortable than in a kevlar canoe or fiberglass kayak. I've never had a leak, haven't had to repair a puncture. The canvas is about as sturdy as a white water raft's. There's two air chambers, so if you lose one due to a puncture, the other will get you back to shore. I already bought another Intex challenger as a backup for the day this thing dies, so far that backup inflatable is still sealed up in the original box.
That’s incredible. Especially for the price. I look forward to your gear video. Good stuff all around and I hope to hook up with some trout when I visit Glacier in July.
@@kygreenskeeper8326 low flat areas that moisture and nutrients drain to and collect. Look for dead and dieing trees of these types: elm, populus genus, (poplar, cottonwood, aspen, etc.) fruit trees (apple and mulberry), I've heard types of ash but haven't found that myself. Find a grove of one of these types, like a huge grove of poplar trees that had a something like a water level change kill them all and you could find some impressive hauls. Cover ground and pin your spots for future years.
Yes it's right onto to which other commentor have say that the decoy turkey, hunting tool, hunters friend, get fill with these cat food pieces from animal in nature as a store
Plastic stick baits work, just about any. Rattletraps. Perch colored rapala. Mini walleye rapala. Just about anything shiny and rattley. You can also jig a plastic worm. They're not finicky, they've probably never seen a lure.
After reading all the elk hunting articles, and viewing all the elk hunting videos, I discovered one secret to hunting public land pressured elk; If there are any natural springs present in my unit, I hunt them. The more hidden away they are, the more big bulls make use of them.
