Wi here to . He's a legend tracker hunter.

@Sparxeb 2 года назад

Yes, great sportsmanship just wildly shooting at the buck because it was a “big one” with a freaking inline! You never take a marginal shot and you could tell by how he justified that, that is exactly what he took. That’s not what hunting is supposed to be. Not where I am from.

@garyknepper4546 2 года назад

@@Sparxeb with the country he’s hunting and the fresh snow I would not criticize him for taking what you call a marginal shot. Even if it would have been a marginal hit he had every opportunity to recover the buck. That’s the bottom line. This type of hunt doesn’t allow for standing broadside shots out in the open.

@chrisbrann7733 3 года назад

I see your name on the board at bishops seems every year, we have a camp on ironbound on the bald mountain side, mountain deer up there, a lot of 8 point basket racks, and right around 200, guessing Hal was in the enchanted or holeb side for this one

@partridgepimp3363 3 года назад

You could tell it was a red hot track from pep in his step and the twinkle in his eye. It’s cool to see him still get so excited about a track even with all the years he has hunted. Its a true passion of his you can tell. I’m impressed he still uses iron sights.

@sophiamountain9966 2 года назад

Perfect. No BS. Real hunt . No tree stands or bait pile. Wool clothes and lightweight LaCrosse boots shows me that this guy knows his stuff.

What a hunt.. What a buck! Sitting by the fire having a sandwich, with the buck in the background is a powerful spiritual moment..In that moment, all in the world is right....

Great hunt caught on video. It’s always nice to hear a hunter acknowledge the Lord. And a very humble and nice man.

@cha-ka8671 2 года назад

You can tell he cares about the animal. He took the second shot to put him down. I had to do the same on my first deer this year. He was suffering. I nicked the top of his heart on the first shot.

Harold blood you just seem like the nicest person honestly. I would rather have a cup of coffee with you then Warren buffet I can tell ya that. Great video thank you!

@smjhobbies4527 Год назад

Nothing like sharing a leftover meatloaf, used for a sandwiches, with a friend while hunting. There's just something about tradition that I really love about hunting, bring in a sandwich or two with you, sitting down with a buddy and sharing a sandwich, bag of chips and Good Times. These good times are trapped in memory forever, and now they're here on RU-vid in the metaverse for all of us to enjoy, thanks to you. With love from Vermont

@tripleeathletics 2 года назад

You are awful brave for grabbing ahold of that buck before he was completely dead, because he could’ve thrown his head back and done a number on you Sir. Great Hunt, & a Great Buck! Congratulations on a successful stalk, that’s not an easy thing to do, especially when hunting a mature Buck!!! Bravo Sir, Bravo… 👏 👏👏👍

@justinturdeau2383 Год назад

It’s not brave. It’s stupid.

@stevehardwick1578 Год назад

After you've shot enough bucks, you know when they're done.

@tripleeathletics Год назад

@@stevehardwick1578 Not to brag Sir, But I’ve killed many, many great bucks. I have more wall material bucks, than 5-7 average hunters. Been very blessed with great hunting property is a big part of it of course. But, I do agree, When you’ve killed plenty, you do kinda know when they’re done…

@garyknepper4546 2 года назад

Had to watch this again. My all time favorite video on You Tube. This would be my favorite way to hunt. I’ve done a little bit of tracking but here in the mid Atlantic states you either push the deer to another hunter or you push it to posted land. What little luck I’ve had tracking came on super windy days with tree tops slapping together and fresh overnight snow. You gotta be ready as when you jump them out of their bed you have to shoot quick. Thanks for sharing this hunt and thanks for no whooping, hollering and fist pumping. Also thanks for no background music.Good job.

What a great video and hunt! Congratulations Hal on another amazing buck. Great job to Will capturing it all on film. Loved how all of the elements of tracking were included: the seemingly endless miles, the sandwich breaks, the frustration, misses, and pure determination all leading to a successful hunt.

Out‘freakin’standing! Way to go Hal! That’s an amazing hunt.. great cinematography, a great story line, the highs, lows, misses, recovery, etc; a very well done representation of hunting the big woods. I like how the buck was still alive as you were walking up to him before you put the final shot in him. Shows the reality of hunting and real time footage versus the highly staged stuff in today’s hunting videos. I know some stuff has to be staged for videography sake and I have no problem with that. It’s just so overdone in most production videos today. This was not that case. Throughly enjoyed your hunt. Enjoy some great memories and delicious deer steaks this year Mr. Blood.
