Primitive Bow & Atlatl Hunting Compilation 

when people get autistic about camo I let them know about this guy

Question is what do you do with all of those meat. Do you hunt for the fun of it?

@@dulajohnstone5704 such a silly question...one question that anybodies ask knows nothing about hunting or what it entails.

Ain’t nothing wrong with that brother I do the same thing and we still gotta get just a close

@@Matthew_T23 If you are not going to use a rifle, you better make your own stone age bow and arrow or atl atl. Other wise what is the point?

Still more badass than compound bois. That shit is gay.

Nothing to feel embarrassed about, that's still more than most hunters.

That’s right be ashamed

Reach out via his website, that'd be the best way to contact him.

hope so

Wait where? I couldn't find it

LOL funny you say that. Flintknapping has been going on for over 2 million years. And only ended like 10,000 years ago. So for 95% of human history, flintknapping was not just mainstream. It was the only way to survive.

@@sagnorm1863 Even after the introduction of metal tools, flintknapping continued in various forms well into the 20th Century. Knapping in Europe for gun flints and in construction. Chipped glass being used by African-American slaves and later sharecroppers as expedient tools in the Southern US. Not to mention indigenous cultures in Australia and the Americas that continued to make stone tools or adapted to using glass/ceramic.

Absolutely. He has videos where he processes and cooks some. He uses all he can, processes sinew etc. 👍

This guy’s the most primitive on RU-vid. Guarantee he uses everything!

It's the way he moves. He moves slow and methodically in order to not make too much noise to scare the animals. This method is known as "spot and stalk" and is a well known method for hunting that's used all the time. It's all about not being loud or fast because prey animals react to quick and loud movements and will run.

Tbf I don't know anyone that shoots from 1,000+ yards. Usually shots are taken no farther than 400 yards and most shots are taken under 250 yards or something like that. However, yeah I get what you mean he's a true hunter through and through I mean man shot an elk from 20 yards that is insane.

They have tried very hard to convince us that we don’t need to remember how to survive. It’s frightening how well it has worked. But survival of the fittest is not just a saying. Some of us will continue on

Why feel bad it's all fun

​@@xburninginwaterx7959 It is still novel, perhaps shocking for some to have to hear such violent screams, moreso that it seems to take a while for them to die. Wouldn't a gun drop them quicker? No disrespect on the practice, but maybe even hunters who use guns could be surprised, and surprise is all I say. I don't think this is particularly wrong, they likely would have made those sounds had they been killed by any other animal too.

​@ghoulishgoober3122 so it depends a stone tipped spear or arrowhead can drop animals in seconds as seen with that deer earlier in the video. A gun drop animals from shock as arrows and spears drop animals from cutting and bleeding and a well placed shot with these stone tipped tools can take out an animal quickly.

True its what hunting all about :)

Is fun to hunt and kill yes ,and eating is part of that sadly alot of hunters aren't truthful about this and use excuses like its what our ancestors did ,it releases endorphins in the brain when you make that kill and nothing comes close to it

Why? That was the most epic hunt of all, plus it fed his family for a year.

​@@MangrovesToMountainsOutdoorsthe comment is specifically concerned with the possibility he isn't eating them. Just confirm that he does eat them, that's all they wanted to know

There's other videos where he does processed/cook em.

​@ghoulishgoober3122 Yeah, no one does that. (kills a bison and just leaves it) I'm one of his camera guys, so I know first hand that he does.

RU-vid bots are known for taking down comments that contain certain words

cuz It already had one spear put through it's heart and was near death. The second spear was just to make it go down faster

What state was the bison hunt in?​@@huntprimitive9918

Florida

The Seminole mostly just used guns. The Seminole were a group of people leaving other tribes and moving south because of how appalled they were by slavery. Native South Floridian populations such as the Calusa had been absolutely devastated by smallpox, and Spanish power in the area was falling apart, so that’s where the Seminole went. By the time the Seminole were really a thing, pretty much all of the eastern nations were using guns.

The Seminole won fame after handing several defeats to the U.S. military after the Jackson administration passed the unconstitutional Indian removal act, but they weren’t the original Floridians.

@@anonymousthesneaky220 Actually if you read "The Witchery of Archery" by Maurice Thompson much of the lessons of Archery he got came from the Seminoles while he was on a trip to Florida from Georgia.

@@1boortzfan Interesting! I'll have to check it out. I suppose it makes sense that a weapon so important to a culture would still be used, even after the people migrated from their traditional homeland. Especially since, for hunting, arrows were not made obsolete by guns, as they don't make huge noises scaring off game. My understanding was that, for warfare, only guns were used, so I guess I just projected that onto wider use as a whole, which is a mistake. Thanks for the info and the book recommendation!

@@anonymousthesneaky220 Maurice and Will Thompson were brothers from Ga. One of them( I can't remember which) was wounded in the War for Southern Independence. The book is well worth the read. I got my copy from 3 Rivers Archery.

It's called the "thrill" of the hunt, not the killing for most people

Dominance over nature may be a part of the human condition, but only in that we literally are more advanced than other animals despite our limitations. We are physically weaker than any other megafauna, to compensate we have opposable thumbs, bipedal walking, full rotation in the wrists, and the ability to invent things such as these bows and atlatls that dominate the ecosystem. Now guns to hunt.

It's the hunting, humans are omnivores and we have an instinct in us for hunting so when we get a successful hunt our brains release dopamine and serotonin which makes us feel good.

Maybe if we all hunted the way this guy does we wouldn't have to worry so much about driving animals extinct. Besides, i don't think the point that's being made is "hey let's watch a bison bleed out", i think it's more along the lines of "prehistoric humans were awesome and deserve more credit"

For food

He hunt and make foods.
