“To Persevere is to continue in a course of action, even in the face of difficulty or with no prospect of success”. You have a choice in the field. When things get tough, you decide whether to continue the course of action or give up. But - What is it that drives you? What is it that tells you to push on in the last hour of a seven-day hunt, or to keep casting the last minutes of a 14-hour day on the water? There is a moment. A moment in every pursuit that we drive for, that we live for. A moment that happens so fast but in that second can last for eternity.
ABO Outfitters understands your passion and is here to equip you for your moment. Our products and videos are chosen for you, to help you becoming a better angler or hunter. When your opportunity comes, we will make sure you’re prepared to execute and truly “Own Your Moment”!
He asked the guide how long we tracked him and he said 2 miles and the hunter said no it wasn’t, but then yet I’m sure this guides spending half the year in the mountain I’m sure he knows what’s 2 miles is
Congrats on the super bull. But I gotta say, 70 yards is just too far! Maybe you can hit a foam target everytime , but the arrow just does not have the kinetic energy for enough penetration on a tough game animal, a few inches forward and you would have hit shoulder and had a wounded animal that would have gotten away. Probably to survive. You got lucky thats for sure.
If your getting frustrated from interactions with elk you haven't learned to truly enjoy hunting ..... enjoy the whole experience/process. Love every minute for they fade entirely to fast
The first bull I killed with a bow. It was my first season and hunting by myself. I called in and shot a bull. I called to him as he ran off and he stopped. He layed down and died. I respected the silence and did not make a fool of myself or the animal.
I am in shock by the actions of the shooter. How do you shoot so far and hope to experience the art of bow hunting. The ecstaticy over the top expressions of jubiliation are emabarassing.
Congrats to the winner! What a prize pack! Thanks switchback outdoors for the amazing content as always. So glad you guys made it out ok with only bumps and bruises. God is good. Happy easter!
@@mattbaier4796 please read some of Dr. Ed Ashby arrow and broad head lethality studies. Every hunt presents an opportunity to appreciate the challenge and beauty and also learn. Congratulations on sticking it out and getting that animal harvested.
In many cases I'd agree, not all. One of the great things of Jemez MTN Outfitters is that they can cater the hunt to your liking or needs. If you desire to strictly only be a "shooter", they have the expertise to put you in the moment. If you are a seasoned hunter, they can help point you in the direction and let your skills close the distance. 👍🏻
So according to your theory: By Alaskan state law, there are never any out of state HUNTERS in Alaska...ever....only out of state shooters. Yeah, ok 🙄🙄🙄. Also you apparently have no idea what a fucking drop camp is. Just one more thing, on a long LONG list of shit you don't understand at all...yet you still love to instruct others 🤦🤦
Man what a great bull. Absolutely amazing. I thought the first arrow hit high. Love lighted nocks. Congratulations to you. It’s really quite an accomplishment as hiking around in the mountains isn’t easy at all. Get ‘em while you can. 👍👍🔥
Pro tip… to get rid of stinky feet, soak your feet in tea for 15 minutes for 10 straight days. Stink goes away. Not sure of the science behind it, but works.
What a stud bull! That’s definitely some of the roughest elk country I’ve hunted. But that’s why those bulls grow so big there. A huge congrats to you and Jordan. Awesome to watch the hunt unfold.
Awesome hunt! Congrats on a great bull! Just a quick thought, I know how exciting it is when you put a good shot on a big bull. However, I think it is best to keep the "human sounds" to a minimum until you recover the animal. You never know if it is a perfect hit and you don't want to give them an extra reason to run and keep running. Also, you never know how good the blood trail will be. Even with a perfect hit, these animals can cover a long way before they bed down or expire and can even have spotty blood trails. This year my son hit his 1st archery buck perfectly. I couldn't place it any better if I stuck the arrow in by hand. Double lung hit. Full pass through. Super sharp broadhead that I get sharper than factory. The deer still ran close to 500 yards with a fairly sparse blood trail. Who knows how much further he would have run if we had made a lot of noise after the shot. My elk this year was similar. Great shot placement, full pass through, double lung hit, spotty blood trail. However, that bull only ran 50 yards and stopped. He didn't know what happened. I heard him fall on the top of the hill. I was able to find him without much blood trail. If he was spooked by human sounds after the shot, I'm sure he would have ran down the hill and possibly died where I couldn't find him. Too many things can go wrong after any shot. You really want to keep any reason for not recovering them in your favor. Again, congrats on harvesting the bull! Thanks for bringing us along!
