One summer as a college kid working on the Great Northern Railroad, I had the privilege to be in Dixon, Polson, St. Regis and the most Spectacular scenery I've only imagined! I always wished I had God's life directions there! However, you give me reprieve! Keep it up Montana Mountain Man!
Your allowing us into both your high country and even your special cabin with your Mom's bear is so appreciated. As a young Texas college student, I worked summers on the railroad for the old Great Northern and Northern Pacific mostly around Wyoming and Western Montana. I would start in Billings and go to Bozeman, Missoula and etc. when I view your hunts it brings me back to that special Big Sky High Country! We saw tons of all types of wildlife and breathtaking scenery from the rail, as most could never see otherwise. If I ever hit the lotto, I'll be a neighbor somewhere in the High County! I love your style and channel. Blessings in your journey. JohnMark
You got bear spray and a high powered handgun and a grizz is at full charge ...and you pick the bear spray?? NOSIR im not taking that chance !!! Its at a charge i may give it a second but once it gets less than 50 yards and still coming im firing!!! They close that distance FAST so you gotta make best shot you can and preferably a couple follow ups as well if you can ..id at least have nothing less than 10mm loaded with stout hardcast rounds at the least ..preferably a 12 gauge with some badass slugs or a high powered rifle or something extra mean for that stopping power ..either way this guy is lucky hes alive and i wouldnt ever wanna take thay ride and be at the mercy of a pissed off grizz ..shew!!! Nightmare scenario...grizz dont care son!!! We are nothing compared to !!!
Pistol first, Bear spray not needed! I do understand your ethical procedures, yet in life or death threats, shoot and save yourself and then let game and fish try to locate cubs, etc. What an episode turned for the best in your life. And yes, none of us outdoorsmen know what we'd do unless we were you! No disrespect for your very vigilant choices. And, thank God above, You and bear family won! Better than Hugh Glass episode! 😮
I killed the biggest bull of my life after a great stalk. How should I hunt different? Haha. Sorry if you don't like the music, can't please everyone I guess. Overall I get a pile of compliments on the music and one or two negative. But you'll always have those one or two. I'll take it!
In most cases I'd agree with you but I made the judgement that I wouldn't help tell the story any better. This was the cleanest classiest way to depict the hunt for the reason I appreciate. Thank you for watching and for your opinion though, I really appreciate it.

Thank you for tuning in and watching the episode. I appreciate the feedback and can assure you I wouldn't cuss around my children or put out anything with fowl language. It wouldn't be accepted on national television otherwise which is where all of these episodes end up before they appear on RU-vid. I believe you are hearing something different than what is actually said. Or are you seeing it in the subtitles? The RU-vid generated subtitles can be inaccurate many times and that is out of my control.
Great season Jason, definitely one that will be hard to top, but a guy can always try!😉 Appreciate your postive outlook when your hunting, and striving to work harder when things dont always work out the way a guy thought they should, because that's when success happens most of the time. Loved when your son shot his buck and you commented how much pride you had as a father. Seeing your boys and your dad enjoy the success of a hunt is special in my book, and reminds me of days gone with my dad and brother. Keep up the great work Jason, your a class act and please share some of your sheep luck with me please. Take care
You know this man is really something. Was attacked by a grizzly bear *TWICE* in the span of a few minutes, is able to hike back to his truck, is worried about other people running into the mother grizzly and tries to write a note, is able to drive himself to a ranger house, and when the ranger offers to drive him to the hospital, he refuses and insists he can drive because he doesn’t want to get his *blood on the man’s truck seats???* Man is something special. A great man, we need more men like him.
What a dream season indeed from start to finish. Happy for you Jason. Hopefully 🤞🏻 I will get experience one of those type hunts this year and the many years to come.
A hard quartering away angle is a western thing? I was taught that to be a great shot angle as a kid. Either way, the deer didn't go anywhere even though I did hit slightly off where I intended. I have been documenting hunting before Instagram or Facebook was even a thing so that is not a very valid statement. Thank you for sharing your opinion though and best of luck this season!
Early in the video you mention watching Guy Eastman movies. He inspired a whole generation on how to make outdoor films. I feel that with your films, and the quality in which you make them, you are inspiring a whole new generation on what an outdoor film should be today. Well done sir. Thanks.
Jason, I've tried to think of proper words to describe your work. There are many, like quality, beautiful, exciting, and professional, but for me what sets you apart is 'reality'. What I see is real hunting, with all the feelings and emotions that I've experienced over the past 65 years-plus of hunting those same animals. No rock concert or rapid fire scene changes, just great videography and story telling that lets young and old feel what real hunting is about. Thank you for giving us that.
Howdy Jason. AWESOME adventure! I wonder if you ever got his teeth aged? I don't know how old he was, but it is proof that some elk can live for a very long time. Thank you so much for your videos!
You interest me in that you stay after your prey like a grey wolf. You are not over anxious about your hunts and this proves why. You've committed to a standard of success and if no tag, then it's still a good hunt in the Great Wilderness we call home. You inspire me with your display in film of what real hunting is about...the entire adventure! Thank you Jason.
