I'm sry but his head was so far away from the scope no way he could see anything threw it. I'm not trying to be rude but your the one with experince and should have told him to get his eye's closer so he could see what was going on.
So pleasing to see what a fantastic big game hunter you have become. The world you have created at Way Out West Adventures is growing. With the almighty guiding your shots, you are becoming a master at your trade. Congratulations Joseph and keep up the fantastic work.
Large Bears are not all over. The fish and game just sent out a survey for bears and bigger bears was one of the things they are feeling out. Currently there is little restrictions on bear so pressure is high in some places. Competition with wolves probably hasn't helped
Awesome video. Good filming, editing, and shooting! Nice work Ashley for keeping him focused! Not everyone understands this way of life but we do! Congratulations!
Preparation is key to all hunts...fish, bears, elk, deer..... Great hunt. Nice job on the video! Getting better on editing/producing, etc. Awesome to see Ashley out there!
Congratulations man on a great bull! Very happy for your success towards the end of the seasons! Everything happens for a reason my friend! Keep after it!
I’ve hunted Blacktails in the Oregon Western Cascades and Coast Range for many years making me 60 going on 41. I started out after obtaining my hunter safety training and permit at 14 and learned the skills of mobile bow hunting with a Bear 70lb. compound bow. Over the years, I learned to get to know my hunting areas better than the deer do by staying there for years; I study topo terrain maps looking for benches, draws and escape routes. I study the wind patterns and surface water sources and know everything the deer know. Learn how to still/wind-hunt in the woods and brush, be slow, methodical and extremely patient like a mobile bow hunter. Deer don’t have great 3-D eyesight, so they rely on and are extremely keen on movement, so take no more than three steps at a time, never from one side to the other of an adjacent tree, wait behind it, then step again- break up your human patterns to sound and appear to be a browsing doe. Stop, look and listen longer than you move; it takes me an hour to get 200 yards.
I've shot bigger off a skid road. Why the hell are you guys hiking in the back country to basically shoot a spike? It was a good shot though. Wrong bear in my opinion
