- METRIC, the legendary 19 point, 205" world-class whitetail deer harvested in Licking County, Ohio. METRIC's story is one of determination, skill, frustration, and the chase that I will remember forever. In this video, I dive deep into the heart-pounding adventure that led up to the breathtaking moment when my hunt of a lifetime came to an end.

My grandfather that I never met quit hunting after he killed a 15 point buck in the Adirondack mountains. He had basically the same thing happen and said he couldn't ever take a deers life after the eye contact they made as he was fading. It's really a overlooked aspect of most hunters, their compassion and love for the deer is almost like an oxy moron to people that don't hunt. Awesome video man congrats.
I keep getting these comments of people that have had the same experience, i think it happens more than we talk about. i can see how it could make you never take another animals life again. That did cross my mind the first few nights as I was driving around trying to get myself together.
Thank you for the comment
Your telling of the whole story was top shelf.
Small world. I’ve hunted the Adirondacks my whole life. Will be there next weekend

If anyone wants to learn about Jesus Christ reply
Just goes to show you that not all hunters are cold blooded killers, that was an epic story and it definitely got into my feels. Well done sir!
This is an incredible story. It is so obvious the love you have for these whitetail. You told the story in such a riveting way that I was sad when it ended. You are making sure the story of Metric lives on forever, and that is a special thing that nobody can take away. Thank you for sharing this story! It gave me goosebumps.
12/1/21....rifle opener in KS. I was born & raised in KS but had at that point lived in MN for 21 years. Applied for KS tags to hopefully get a chance to have at least 1 hunt with my dad. 4 minutes into legal shoot opener morning....I shoot a 179" 16 pt non-typical. But upon walking up on him 45-60 mins later we realized he wasnt dead. My dad shot him again from just a couple feet away....a couple mins later my hubby had to shoot him yet again to which he finally expired. My first ever hunt with my elderly dad EVER, AND my first buck EVER! And it was all & still is overshadowed with his last moments being shot 2 more times at point blank range. I commend your respect for Metric and his final moments, as I still to this day weigh upon my bucks final moments and it breaks my heart ❤
I had close to the same experience with my first big whitetail...walked up and looked him in the eyes right before he died and i still remember him blinking and straight up cried for a few minutes...took me a long time to recover to the point of taking a deer's life again
The Adirondacks are in my back yard love the hunting up north in lake luzerne and Saratoga.
This story is something special! As a big time deer hunter I can relate to this story as much as anything in the world. That last 3 minutes of the video I had goosebumps and about in tears. You hit the nail on the head about chasing white tails the right way! It’s a challenging thing. It feels sometimes like you form a bond with the wilderness, and embrace it so much more than anyone else does! Hunting to me is the chase, and you explained it perfectly! Congratulations on a magnificent buck and a wonderful story! Your the man!
Thank you, appreciate the comment! Good luck
Without that connection to these beautiful creatures what would hunting be? I think your honestly is true and humble and glad to see another hunter feel the same way I do. Thank you friend. If people only knew how much us hunters love the game we pursue.
We are a small group among hunters that care about the animal the way we do.
I had a deer pull away when I grabbed the antlers too and it shook me to my core. A lot of emotion came back when I watched you describe your same experience.
Great story, great buck!
I’m finding out it happens more than we know. It’s an experience that changes us as hunters forever.
Videos like this make me realize how fortunate I am to have been born and raised in Montana where we still have spot and stalk hunting and you get to bust your ass in the cold and up and down the mountains. I don't know how anyone thinks sitting in tree stands on private land is hunting, you're farmers in camouflage lol
You got him in OHIO, man!!! Our Whitetail get Huge
Yea Ohio grows them good
Truly incredible... thanks for sharing!! I was riveted the whole time. Can't wait to see what you come up with in the future.
Thank you for sharing your story. Congratulations on harvesting such an amazing buck!
Dang Kyle, incredible buck and an even more incredible story. I about teared up when you talked about the recovery, I’ve been there before and that really hit home to me as well. I’m glad you connected with him, congrats!
Thank you! I’ve had a lot of people reach out with similar experiences. I think it happens more than we know.
mannn for real.. the end... sheeeesh.
Great story. Keep those values. Always enjoy the pursuit. It guides us to the harvest .
such an incredible story and buck, thank you for sharing this! And congratulations!
Incredible story! Thanx for sharing!!
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing!
Easily the best podcast I’ve watched of all the outdoor ones I keep up with. Amazing story. It really gives you prospective and it’s such a strange feeling. Yes we hunt these animals, but the amount of respect and love we have for them is unparalleled. They have earned it and they deserve it. God Speed to the rest of your season brother.
An excellent story and I appreciate the emotions you felt when you came up to the (still living) deer. I've had a similar experience and it bothered me for quite awhile. Thanks for sharing.
This was an awesome story, with a wicked video. Hit me in the feels.
From one Ohio hunter to another Ohio hunter, there are some amazing whitetail deer in Ohio. Kyle great buck and even better story about this deer! Keep up the great work and God Bless ! Brandon
Yes there us I'm from Indiana right on the border of ind Ohio and they come over the line. The biggest ive seen were right close to Ohio new paris
Awesome video. The recovery was one of the best parts of the story. Touching
Congratulations
Oh, HE's here buddy. Thanks for the great story and for your respect for these animals. Enjoyed it. Congratulations.
As a veterinarian that also hunts I can certainly relate to the compassion and the "mixed feelings " you describe. Certainly why true hunters strive to make as quick and clean and ethical of a harvest as possible. I know if have passed shots many would have taken and I've made mistakes (particularly in my youth) that haunt me that I never want to repeat. It is why I'm so cautious as a bow hunter.
Nothing like getting close and "one" like archery but it is not forgiving.
Thanks to Lee for inspiring you bro. We wouldn’t have this epic vid if not for him 💯
What an incredible story! Its stories like this that make me love bowhunting even more!
Dude. Spectacular story. You set the prime example of a fine whitetail hunter. Never stop.
Thank you!
Awesome story. I enjoyed watching it unfold. Chapter by chapter. Lee Ellis and the Seek 1 guys are really solid dudes and extremely dedicated to their craft like you are.
I am happy for you to be able to make it happen in such heart pounding fashion. 🏹🦌
Last year I made a bad shot with a rifle on a small 5 point and had to finish him off. To see life in his eyes as I loaded another round in the chamber and him not able to move tore me up. Just thinking about it now brings back the feeling of sadness that I didn’t do my part better. I told him, “sorry buddy” a couple times before I pulled the trigger.
I actually cried when I told my wife the story. That will stick with me for a long time.
Thanks for sharing your experience and hunting story on this beautiful buck 🏹🦌 My family and I recently moved to Ohio and I am looking forward to hunting here next year.
Great story man. I really enjoyed your journey and success on that beautiful buck. Congrats
Wow, great video, you did a great job putting it all together. What an amazing buck. Congratulations well done.
First I wanted to say Thank you to you for sharing a story that if someother person didn't know what kind of person you are, they might shake there head in disbelief, that said ,for myself from being in many different traumatic situations in life,the biggest gift a person is blessed with , is the understanding of others and how they might feel in or after a certain situation or event, and that feeling is called Empathy ! It's taken me a long time to fully understand what that word meant and how important it is to have ,its a big part of life to be blessed enough to have that understanding, on this never ending roller coaster we call life,I have to say , what i heard and watched from your film is that your heart is as big as anyone's, and I've never met you before ,,you were definitely blessed with a remarkable understanding of what a life means and that we have zero control on what outcome is ahead of us! Anyway, sorry if that was to deep,some times I need to say what I've experienced, and that was a great experience for myself,Congratulations on a Majestic Whitetail, they are in my mind the greatest animal that I've encountered so far on this planet! Hang on to what you posses, not many out there ,that do, Stay safe, God bless,
Awesome video and awesome story! It can definitely be bitter sweet when it’s all over. I feel like having those experiences, even though sometimes difficult, are important to sober us, bring us back to reality, keep us from losing touch of reality, and keep us from becoming to desensitized to it. I feel like if we get too desensitized to that stuff we, in a way, lose appreciation for it.
I agree man, it definitely humbles us as hunters when Something like that happens. Good luck this year
That was great ,such history ,thanks for great watch
I thoroughly enjoyed this video, great job and congratulations!!
Well done, I appreciate the reverence and respect given to the bucks we hunt , if we ever lose that, we may as well stay out of their domain...........
I feel the same, we have to respect the animals we hunt.
Great story, thanks for sharing. The cinematography in your video is first class. I am not only impressed by your story and this incredible animal but also the way you share the story with video and drama. The connection you made with him at the end is very real. I have had similar experiences. Non-hunters will never understand the passion and pursuit. You have a new subscriber! Cheers
I felt this! Bro what an incredible story. I’m literally sitting in a hotel room putting together tree stands 2 hours from home at 11:00 at night to make a move tomorrow. It’s definitely a DNA thing! Congrats again Kyle!
Thanks man!! I’m looking forward to seeing how your season plays out!! You definitely put in the work! Good luck
Awesome production and awesome story telling! Well deserved.
Thanks Kings 🙌
One of the best hunting stories I’ve watched absolutely love your hunting videos. Definitely keep ‘em coming. 💪🏼💪🏼
I definitely will, thank you
This was awesome bud, can"t wait for ya to make another!!
Amazing buck Kyle. Thank you for sharing the story of Metric. I've watched you race dozens of times near my home in Northern WI but, being a whitetail hunter myself, I have a new level of respect for you and your passion for giant whitetails. Congrats. I've got a lot of 8 pointers but have never had a chance at a fully mature deer. In 2 days I'm heading to Buffalo County, WI (1st time) for 6 days so maybe I'll have some good fortune.
Thank you for the comment and watching the video! In Buffalo Co you might get a chance!! Good luck
Great video , great story , great deer ..
Holy crap Kyle, what a beautiful buck!!!! Amazing story, loved every second of it! You just about had me in tears when you talked about getting your hands on him for the first time!!!! WOW! Wisconsin hunter here that used to race off road here in the midwest!
Thank you for watching! Yea that was an emotional moment for me and I’m not really an emotional guy.
What an awesome animal and story! Love the dedication that went into this. You just earned another subscriber!
Thank you!
Same. Awesome story man!
Dude oh my this is such an amazing story of this deer this is definitely the best video I have ever saw on CZcams.
I love this story thanks for sharing.
Dang dude! Amazing story. I understand when you say "it's thier time". I have a 5 point deer bigger and older than any 8 or 10 point around. Wow! What a story! You did very well
Awesome Story Really Enjoyed It. Keep Filming!!
Thank you!!
Cool story, thanks for sharing
Awesome Buck and story! Always wish to give them their moment of peace as they expire but with the history of you scaring the daylights out of that deer then to follow it up with seeing you when it did pass is almost symbolic in its own way... Also have to think that so many deer get wounded then never are found so I hope you have a little bit of piece of mind knowing that after all your effort and hard work you were able to do this deer justice with the story telling and recovery, congrats!
Thank you!! Yea I understand lots of deer get hit by cars or shot and never found, I am honored to have been given the opportunity to share his story but it’s still tough. Thanks for the comment and watching the video
Loved seeing this side of you Kyle! Definitely wanna see more of this and the x3
I’ll definitely try, thank you
Born and raised in Arizona Bow hunter , i really missed out on the chance you all get to hunt every year . Its so hard to even get tags to hunt a state like Arizona . Great story Kyle , you are a great hunter
One of the greatest hunting stories I’ve ever watched
I’ll watch any video you post, you seem a great hunter with real respect for hunting this is what makes hunting hunting. Thank you 🙏
Thank you, im definitely no better than the next guy, I just put a lot of effort and time into chasing whitetail, more than I should but it’s an addiction at this point.
this is the craziest buck story i have ever heard. thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it
AMAZING STORY bro.. God bless you and the deer
Great story thank you for sharing
Awesome video man! ❤ great story
I've got a buck I've watched grow for the past 4 seasons, this year makes the 5th, and I've told my friend several times that if I knew for sure he wouldn't get poached, or shot with a rifle from a road, I'd never shoot him. Reason being is the experience you had with your recovery. I don't want to walk up on a deer I feel like I know and have "raised" for years and see him not alive anymore. It's tough when you genuinely care about the animal. I passed him 2 seasons ago at 32 yards. Drew back on him and everything and just wouldn't pull the trigger. Found his sheds from that year and scored him out to 154. Would have by far been my biggest buck (live in Southern wv where rifle season is in for 2 weeks so most bucks don't get to age). I'm out to try and get him this year, but I dread the recovery if I do.
It’s tough to pass good deer, you did the right thing and bet on the deer to live and sneak past other hunters and poachers. It will be very hard to walk up to him when you harvest him, especially with the amount of work you have put in and the connection you have with the deer. Good luck
@kylechaney191 I appreciate the good wishes. There will definitely be a lump in my throat if I get the opportunity. I have his match sets from the past 2 years so if I end up never getting him and he is taken out naturally or of old age, I'll be ok with that.
This video was amazing, I almost teared up when you were talking about when you walked up to him. Thank you for sharing this awesome story.
Thank you!
Dude that brought me to tears im glad you got him but it was tough to watch the end thats for the great story congrats
The GIFT of life is precious.....no matter the species. Time has been borrowed since birth. All things living have an expiration date
Great video! Well done
Very touching and a true hunter ! It;s good to feel the spirituallization of the hunt .
I’m glad we were able to put the passion into a video. Thank you
God bless ya buddy. Thanks for the insight at the end there cuz I felt it the second you said he pulled his rack away from ya…
Never thought I’d cry over a deer hunting video 😢
I just had a similar experience with my target buck expiring in my hands. Definitely hard, but you did everything you could to ensure a quick clean kill. Two great shots imo. Tough animals and a reality of bowhunting.
Very awesome story brother how much a deer can mean to us is amazing!!! But we share that much time and memories with anyone Or anything it really hurts to see em go!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hands down, the BEST hunting story and outcome in existence!
Thank you! A lot of work went into this!
@@kylechaney191you’re very welcome sir!
We hunt licking county it is crazy how good the genetics and deer herds are in this area
His spirit lives with you now! You need take it to another dimension now. Only the monarch will please such a person
Thanks for shared
Great experience for sure. Any time I harvest the game I am hunting I always kneel beside it and thank god and the spirits for granting me with that animal. I havent been able to hunt for a while because of work or health issues but I will get out this fall for some time to relax in the woods.
Great buck and better story. I’ve had a similar encounter with a deer that was expiring and it definitely tears you apart.
Thank you! Yea I don’t wish that upon anyone or anything. It’s definitely an experience that changes a person’s perspectives
What a sad and incredible story that hit me hard when you said he pulled back but what a awesome deer 🌾🦌
Great story, thanks for sharing
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!!
Amazing story. Thank you for sharing and Than you for being a good representative of what a bowhunter should be. Much respect to you man.
Thank you!! I’m far from perfect, but I do love and respect any animal I’m chasing.
This was a great story.
Outstanding! Congrats! I’m hunting Pike and waiting for a good one. Awesome.
Good luck!! Thank you
Awesome story! This will be my first year deer hunting and I decided to do try with a bow! Putting in the work now so I can make a clean shot when the time comes. Really cool to see your story and what it took to get there!
Bow hunting is a great way to connect you with the outdoors. Thank you
Bro you had feelings for him which is completely understood .You got heartbroken because the hunt was over and he was done. That last breathe looking at you showed shock like when you jumped him. Majestic whitetail and your a great hunter dedicated and finished the job. Congrats on a fantastically awesome buck
I agree with everything you said 💯 thank you and thanks for the comment
From Donnie Coston,
Great Story dude and well put together for what I know. Ive watched a ton of hunting videos over the years and this is one of the better ones. Sounds like you put the work in and Definitely shows your willingness to do what it takes and your love for these special animals. 👍
Appreciate the comment, thank you
Amazing story! Keep doing these please.
I definitely plan on it! Thank you
Your story was great. I have my personal story with a 182" Double drop tine . Your Buck is a Toad by the way!!!!! Congratulations 🎉
Dude the fact you told the story of him not being expired says a lot. And my heart sank listening to you tell it. But awesome deer and congrats
Great story and video!
Thank you
Wow what a story and man the minutes and hours you put in on this deer was insane. But I totally understand and from a guy from Ohio I know how big Ohio bucks are I’m 43 years old and been a hunter for my whole life and now my 17 year old is the same way and we are actually trying still 11/16/23 are trying to get him this monster of a ten point. But great job and happy hunting
I had a similar recovery experience, but it was with a doe. As weird as it sounds I petted her and talked to her and thanked her as she took her last breaths and I couldn’t help but break down and cry. It was an eye opening experience
Sex of the animal is irrelevant it’s the respect we have for the animal for sure.
Man great video!
My grandfather killed a 21 point buck here in Morrow County. He held a record but then was taken over from someone.
Awesome.
I've hunted all my life, killed some nice bucks, only one was a Metric class deer, the older i get the more i get into my feels as well, A friend of mine shot a buck that didn't die right away, we found the deer, he had crawled into some thick stuff and couldn't get out of it, he shot his last two arrows trying to put him down but couldn't get an arrow through to him. He had to crawl into the brush with a knife and finish him. needless to say, he's done, hasn't killed a deer since. He still wants to hunt but hasn't gone. Great story, loved all video's and pictures and thanks for sharing.
Great video
Counting the amount of times you say corn pile 😅 love the video brother
I had a similar experience this year. The thought of the animal being scared because I'm the last thing it saw is the hardest thing I have experienced in the deer woods.
Simply incredible
Thanks man!
I felt the same way. It shows you have heart when it happened to me that was my last hunt.
It definitely went through my mind. Thank you
Nice job Tom. Love the detail about the stand and access. Do you do anything related to scent control or is it all about access?
Great story
Wow! What a story. Your dedication is amazing and extraordinary! Congrats. I hunt Knox and Fairfield live in Westerville. Good hunting and thanks for sharing!
Thank you! Good luck to you also
