Damn dude don’t ever worry about the time it takes to tell us a story. I’m sure I speak for the rest of us but we are glued to the screen and love every minute of each story. Howdy from the Great State of Texas!
James Swain I honestly prefer longer stories. I'm usually listening at work, so the more time I can spend listening vs trying to find something to listen to the better.
Hey man, this wasn't the worse hunt story ever. In fact, it might just be the BEST hunt story ever. What a story! I don't hunt. I'm not even that interested in hunting. But you speak with such passion and you tell the story so well, even a city boy like me was riveted. This is great work!
Ahh someone exactly like myself. I don’t hunt or even interested in hunting. However this dude tells such great stories. A true gift to gather another’s attention with info they’re not really interested in general, except for the how a story is told.
Oh, the mighty outdoor guide! Mountain man, hunter, fisherman, photographer, mentor, psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, comedian, medic and so much more! Some of the most frustrated people on earth trying to figure out the mess that is a man way outside his element during the few days he has to endure him. All the best to you, Steve! It takes a certain kind of character to deal with it all, and you, sir, seem to have it that character.
You're calling this guy a Psychoanalyst? LOL He's a cool dude but he doesn't know shit about the networks of the brain. Let's not get carried away. Psychiatrist? Yikes.
@@SourPepper I would never pay thousands of dollars to kill a goat or a ram, let alone put myself through ANY of that for that type of animal. I LOVE to hunt though and yes these stories are pretty cool! I will stick to whitetails and fishing.
Some of the best times I've had in my life was hunting with my Dad. You've helped bring back all those happy memories with your stories. Keep up the good work!
You best memories/stories are of the biggest wins and worst losses. You celebrate the wins and laugh at the losses. You can't make that shit up. Laugh and learn! Keep them coming. You are living a very adventurous life and you are a great story teller. I look forward to the next one. Thank you!
Steve, I can listen to your stories all day long. I don't even hunt(on my bucket list) and I came for the sasquatch and stayed for the hunt. It's the way you tell these stories. love them! (necesitas subtitulos en Español!)
OMG! I loved this story! As Darin had mentioned below,... The length of this video is not an issue! You had me glued to the monitor and listening to every word,... Time just flew by listening in! This could have been an hour long and it would have been ok with me! Thank You for sharing your stories with us Steve! ,..... Ken
I have zero hunting experience, and I can honestly say I enjoyed your story so much I can't even think of a anything I've enjoyed that much in a long time...
Just the best stories on RU-vid- And laced with great content , context of the immediate terrain, season, weather, personalities experience, tips... Remarkable
You hit home with this story... two chumps you knew from the past. Never listened...never learned...and still probably think...they can cut it. Thanks for the mighty fine story.
You have the best stories on the planet! Take your time...I, for one, am completely focused in the telling and feel like I am right there every time! Just the best😁
Hey Steve I have watched your story before a long time ago I watched it again it was still like the first time freaking hilarious your stories are never boring so don't worry about it we all follow you like Jim Jones LMAO you're the best buddy keep it going with them hunting stories on to the next one
Been following Steve’s channel for about 3ish years now and I always come back to this story to give me a good laugh. The way he describes the other guide as Humpty Dumpty and 4 foot tall 5 foot wide has me in stitches dying laughing 😂😂😂😂
Everyone thinks I’m crazy, (no proof yet...), but I do the same thing when close to prey. Look away, act relaxed, etc. I’ve heard of the “lost wallet method” years ago, and just expanded on that. Anyways, works for me. Body language is HUGE. Man, I love your stories. If you’re ever in Yellowknife, hit me up so we can sit around a fire or in a cabin with the gang and just listen. Keep it coming! As much as these stories are entertaining, there’s golden nuggets of knowledge strung through them as well. Thanks and take care.
A few years late here, but could you take a sec and explain the lost wallet method, or maybe just direct me to a resource? I think i know what youre talking about. Just seeking confirmation..much appreciated!
@@ottosdad just pretend you lost your wallet, and walk around looking carefully for it. Having a peaked hat helps, too, as the peak points to what should be your focal point, but your eyes are looking around.
That was an awesome story with an ending I wasn’t ready for..... mate YOU never disappoint, but there is more truth in what you say concerning holding onto things too long. So greetings from Western Australia.
Been following you for about a month now and this video is by far the best what an idiot should of confessed! Keep up the great work your videos are so entertaining and I appreciate them.
Love the stories. I think we can all agree that the day you run out of hunting stories its going to be the worst day ever. No seriously the worst day ever.
Great Story! I had the pleasure of doing a successful Moose hunt with Peter Koser out of Whitehorse back in 2004. Keep the story coming. Thank you, Dave
Your way of preparing for the hunt is to clear your thoughts. Animals sense these things. Try this. 1. Without saying anything. Be quiet. But go hiking when you're angry. 2. Quietly go hiking when you are having a good day. There will be a difference between the two. The first one you will likely not see any Animals. But the second one you will every time unless you go where there is nothing there. It's likely they see more visible light than we understand. "Acting natural ", you look like everything else. Not like a predator. To be able to see and feel others intentions. You couldn't lie or do bad things. You would have to be honest. You rock Steve.
I love your stories thanks for sharing. Thanks for all you do appreciate your calm attitude when telling each story. Keep the hunting stories coming. Your reflections are priceless and informational. Wish I had the wear with all to book a hunt with you. Please keep the stories coming.
With all the garbage here on RU-vid , you my friend have created something that really brings enjoyment, tension , intrigue into listening to your stories, and I truly understand the gift of listening to your gut and having things work out like you knew the answer all along , truly a talent not many can say they have , I once again thank you for another enjoyable story to listen to
Damn Steve, that was a good story! Had my heart beatin' a little bit! I thought he was going to get that monster sheep then I remembered this was a "worst hunting" story. That buck fever can be a powerful thing!
We usually know exactly where the target animal is going to be, or at-least the general area. Might take a couple hours to glass them up, but most of the time we can get them located. 8 out of 10 times, we know exactly what animal we are going after, where he is going to be, and already stocked that animal in our minds a hundred times, and a hundred different routes. By the time the hunter gets to us, we already know exactly what we are going to kill, and how we are going to do it. We have everything narrowed down to a few options. Truth is, if we were just to Leave the hunter at camp, we could easily go kill the animal, gut it out, and have it back to camp before lunch LOL. However, that's not how this works haha!!(although I honestly can't tell you, how many of my clients have tried to talk "me" into just filling their tags for them. You'd be surprised lol.) anyways, nothing EVER goes as planned, the moment you leave camp with another person. They just don't understand.... Or listen lol... Thank god we have usually already visually done the hunt a hundred different ways mentally. 99 percent of the time, it's not ideal... But we have figured out so many different options that thay have to really fuck up to be unsuccessful. I shit you now, I had to rope a wounded four point buck one day (with lots of life) steer trip him, and cut his throat with a knife. First and last time i left my gun at home. Anyways, it's always an exsperience.
COULD LISTEN TO YOUR STORIES FOREVER. LOVE THE CRAZY BEAR ONES! HAVE SOOOO MUCH MORE LISTENING TO DO AS I AM NEW TO YOUR CHANNEL. WHAT YOU ARE PLANNING TO DO PERTAINING TO SASQUATCH SOUNDS RISKY, BUT I SUPPORT YOU 100%. YOU ARE AN AMAZING HUMAN BEING.
Steve you're a good Storyteller man I'm telling you I'm right there with you buddy standing right beside you you tell me stories man cuz I'm a Hunter to I've been writing you every damn day every time I watch these a couple of day you're awesome bro 👍🙄🇱🇷✝️
I can't stop laughing, that was priceless story , I can only imagine , but somehow can relate the experience . I subscribed , the videos I have watched are well worth it ! Thank you .
Love your videos! Just wanted to say that your audio only comes out of the left side. I’ve used final cut before and you can fixing it by changing the setting to dual mono on your audio or placing a copy of audio and making it come out the right speaker. Just trying to help ya out!
I look forward to hearing about your hunting adventures.😊 Also that you treat everyone the same whether they are the every day working man or Hollyweird, I mean Hollywood movie star.😄
Your stories are cool so full of truth. You remind me of my dad. And brothers. Serious. When needed. But. Joking all along thanks fore the great stories
Daniel Craig sure is taking his next role seriously! Method acting out of Squamish. lol, keep up the great work brother, I'm absolutely addicted to the channel!
Man, I always thought Buck Fever was a myth until I was with a dude that I was with me hunting moose during the bow season. I was the one with the tag, he just wanted to come along because he had a whitetail and elk tag at the time and the area was good for them as well. Had a BIG bull moose (big for around here at least) coming in on a cow call, we'd got a look at it as it was coming up the drainage a few minutes earlier and could hear it answering, heading right toward us. I told the guy to keep calling, I'd sneak down and get lined up for a shot on the moose because it was going to step out into this open patch of grass out of the willows he was coming through and he'd pass right by me. Perfect setup, good line of sight and I had good cover... Buddy didn't continue calling and instead, eyes bugging out of his head, started scurrying across that open patch in plain fucking sight of the bull JUST as I got settled down and the moose stepped out of the willow thicket. Dude was waving me over for a 'better shot' as I'm staring at him completely stunned with this look like "What the FUCK ARE YOU DOING?!". The moose is staring at him, before it turns and crashed off through the willow like it's ass was set on fire. Buddy starts whistling and shouting to try and get it to stop and I swear to God it took every ounce of willpower not to plant an arrow right in that stupid SOB's ass. I'd never been so infuriated and, needless to say, I never took the guy up on his request to come out hunting with me again. I've never gotten so pumped up over spotting anything that I'd went out to lunch like that in my life and this guy completely floored me. He went from thumping his chest about what a great hunter he is, to a complete and utter loon the second we laid eyes on that bull. Another friend of mine had gone hunting with this same guy once and, in the face of a sizable mule deer buck, the guy ended up just pumping all his rounds out of his gun without once even pulling the trigger. My friend ended up shooting it and dude starts jumping up and down "I GOT IT!" Friend was like, "Uh, no. I got it. All your fuckin' bullets are on the ground, dude..."
I got a bad case of buck fever on my first bow hunt, I was so focused on the deer that I didn't see the sapling right in front of the vitals lol... made a perfect heart shot on that little tree, arrow is still there to this day
Oh my god, I thought I was the only one to try and act nonchalant and pretend to chew bushes when I've been busted by something I'm stalking in on like "nothin' to see here, buddy, just munching on leaves" Now my Dad can't accuse me of being a fuckin' weirdo anymore lol
Alright, Fess up.... the ram is in your basement isn’t he. Come on, just tell tell the truth!! LOL 😂 SOOO GLAD my outfit is pretty well pressure free. It’s more of a guys weekend with lots of boozing lol... just drive them around on the sidexsides and let them give it hell lol.. the tricky part is trying to be on their level, while also being responsible and making sure they don’t do something stupid LOL... 22mule deer bucks, 16 branch bulls, and 46 cows this year. Needless to say, I’ve accumulated some good story’s over the years 😂😂 only ever had one unsuccessful hunter. That in its self deserves to have a novel written about lol.. good times. Keep the story’s coming!! I love too listen, you seem pretty darn Genuine and for that reason, I keep coming back to listen. Best of luck stay safe.
Absolutely Great Story. I'm hooked on your stories. And yes I'm a Sasquatch fanatic also. Have lived in Idaho and Montana. Sorry you couldn't keep this guy cool enough to put your hands on this awesome Ram as you intently and patiently did your job. You have a cool demeanor when telling it like it is. Intelligence is a virtue that many lack.
