- In this episode, we dive into the story of Kimbo, our biggest buck ever at 215'. The suburban game was pushed to the extreme here and there's some crazy stories to go with it. Video will be coming around Thanksgiving.
I would be perfectly fine with a 2hr episode on the story of this deer. ;)
Yeah please blow this comment up
Absolutely being a die hard deer hunter myself and being a huge supporter of seek one I’d love to see a two hour episode
Same
Or part one and two
Agreed!!!!
Dude...that tall building in the background, I was able to find the spot in 5 minutes. Never been to that city...heck, I live in Florida. Maybe I was just lucky, but being a bowhunter and a geography nerd, I love cyber-scouting. If you ever need a geo-detective assist in the future Lee, let me know. 😂 Great story...your level of dedication (and respect for the animal, and the sport) is unmatched. Congrats!
I would love to see you hit up some public land. Personally, I think it would be super entertaining and more relatable to the average viewer.
Especially if they had the same success in public. That would be so worth watching
Agreed. They definitely put in the work and time but it would be cool to see them spend a season or even a month or two going around hunting public. Giants get killed on public every year but the difference is on public it usually takes a local that knows the are and know how to hunt the area.
I think that if you, drew, kendall, and jay went in together on some land or a lease and did some land management and done some hunting on it that it would be pretty cool. Either way, ya’ll have the best hunting page out there and I truly enjoy watching and learning from ya’ll.
Literally 4 days ago I’m driving down the road talking with god, and I get the feeling I’m supposed to call someone and tell them” Keep doing what your doing”
At the time I had no idea what that meant or who I was supposed to call. Now I know exactly what it means.
KEEP DOING WHAT YOUR DOING!
I would love to see you guys get involved in a lease or buy land to start property management. There aren’t many guys doing something like that in the suburban game or if you went more rural it’s always cool to see how much you can transform a property for hunting. Love the podcasts and you guys are banner role models for me and everyone else.
Dude I’m 44 years old this year and I’ve hunted for 35 years. I thought I was one of the most passionate and fanatical hunters alive and never thought I could find new hunters to admire and look up to but you boys did it. I tip my hat to you good sir and look forward to the 2 , 1 hr episodes of this Buck 😁
I don’t know if there is a channel on CZcams that does it better! What do I want to see more of? Just hunt! No matter if it’s a big private farm, suburbs, or public land the stories y’all tell are absolutely sensational! Thank you for the content y’all put out!
Love the suburban stuff, so different than what a lot of people get to see in the Midwest but would be great to see you Lease or purchase a farm and transform it into a whitetail heaven with the resources you have.
This podcast tells the real story about how much time, money, and effort you boys put into getting a chance at some of the giant deer y’all hunt. Some of the haters and cry babies don’t realize what it takes or what all you have to go through to be able to hunt them. This podcast details all the hard work and effort that goes into hunting these giant urban bucks and proves that you don’t just walk out there and shoot them.
Congratulations on getting “Kimbo” The buck of a lifetime Lee!!! 🎉🎉🎉 ROLL TIDE ROLL MY FRIEND!
I feel ya on the stress of " city" hunting. My husband did what You guys do but up in Charlotte. He got tired of the stress,harrassment,and competition.
The next page for You guys may be leasing,land management, and what all goes with it.
Theres no better story than the city deer. Finding access,cameras,scouting,and just all of the excitement wont ever be beat as far as excited/entertainment goes.
we have crazy stories hunting backyard bucks stretching back to the mid 90's. All around charlotte. Most places we hunted are now developed but we notice nooks and crannies when we visit the area.
Sure that success awaits regardless the direction You take seek one. We sure enjoy watching yoir videos! They are great!
What a wild wild ride! I literally can't think of anybody else in the world that could have put them puzzle pieces together! Like one in a billion chance that you find that deer let alone it all comes together! You're one of kind my man... congrats
2hrs is honestly perfect I’d be fine with even a 3 to 4 hour video of kimbo
The plant you’re talking about is honey suckle. Highly invasive here in Ohio, excellent deer cover and browse though.
Keep doing what you’re doing. That’s why we’re here.
I'm an avid archery hunter and a devout Christian. You are truly inspirational. With God, all things are possible.
Congratulations on an absolute Giant! Wild story and it really shows your dedication and love for what you do. We think part of what should be next is more big woods public hunts with Beau Martonik!
What i would enjoy most is watching purchase or lease land and build habitat and manage the land. That’s more of a challenge than anything you’ve done and the payoff is insane
There’s a lot of chanel’s and guys that do the land management side, and which that is good to watch, i don’t feel like it correlates to most. I think the urban hunting is for sure something we would enjoy watching whether that’s one deer a year from y’all or multiple. Then finding public land giants that you pursue and can show the story of that. Public land correlates with a lot of your viewers and finding big deer there would definitely hype up some of us. Do what you think is right and what you’d love the most. If you love it then we all will enjoy watching it unfold. Keep up the good work
You need to take all the content you have of Kimbo and how you 1st started ur quest to find him and put all the content out how ever long the video may be and post it cuz this is amazing I truly feel like the lord wanted you to have him
Keep doin what you guys do. Love the content of urban hunting and you portray it well. Definitely set some time to break up the stressful urban stuff with “fun hunts”. Love your videos and keep them coming.
Hi Lee. Love all of the Seek 1 content. It gives me hunting fever with every video I watch.
You mentioned that you love "The Challenge" of hunting and wanted to get back to that. Well, I have a challenge for you.
I challenge you to hunt Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge (Public Land) in North Alabama, and bag a +150" deer.
I have hunted Wheeler for the last 5 years, and I have other friends who have hunted it their entire life. There is definately evidence of deer this size in the area. My brother actually worked on the refuge for a season and received confirmation from daily employees/biologists who have seen them.
The challenging part is that Wheeler restricts the use of cameras, leaving other personal property over night, among others. This makes it quite hard to find and pattern a deer.
If you are up for the challenge, I would love to connect. I even have a couple of places that you could stay that ranges from 10 - 40+ minutes away from the property.
If all else fails, I am also 40+ minutes away from Bankhead National Forest which is known for consistently bigger deer.
We also have a mutual friend in Slade Johnston. I love getting to see him in your content.
Currently in the woods and got to listen to the whole podcast! I’m a 19 year old from Missouri. Loved your videos for a long time
Awesome story had no idea the crap u seen.. one my favorite bucks.. watching some giants here in Michigan..#buckmasters
the amount of deer on that wall is insane i piss my pants over a 120 inch buck lol
What a wild story. I would love to see you here in Missouri on a land management season. I'll follow you wherever god takes you. God bless. Thank you all for your hard work.
Great story, I always say I have more respect for a big buck than I do 99% of people in this world and Kimbo is a good example of this!
Not that i don’t think you should do public, but my favorite part about you guys is the story with these urban deer. I think you should stick to the places you still have deer that are worth pursuing but if there’s not, don’t bother. I’m sure you guys are, but start applying for tags like sheep out west or on a mountain goat hunt, I think hunts like that would be awesome and something different that your looking for. I would also take the opportunity to hunt a Lee and Tiffany’s, used to love their show growing up and they seem like awesome people, but not only that it would be huge for you guys. But no matter what y’all decide to do it’ll work out and i’ll never stop watching you guys and appreciating what y’all do! You guys are the best
As a non urban hunter I love the urban content. Is different and love everything about it. I lived in kc,mo and did urban and love how different it is. Keep it coming
I love the passion you have for the sport of hunting. You could go opossum hunting in Johnson City Tennessee and I’d probably watch and enjoy it. Do what makes you happy, and people will follow along and if they don’t you shouldn’t care. I don’t believe you started this channel to impress people or do what others want so why change that now? I’ve been subscribed since the first video I think I know I’ll watch and support. Follow your heart and make yourself happy, I guarantee the lord will bless that and support it as well. Happy hunting!
I listened to this today when I took my daughter to riding lesson and was at the edge of my seat the entire time! CRAZY. I had to find this video to see the skull. Great job, great hunt, glad to hear you rethinking doing it again cause you're right... no deer is worth that personal danger. That's crazy!!!
This whole story is insane. The story about the pitbull tore me up and the 12 year old tore me… 😢
This podcast is possibly the vest podcast of all time
Hunting is hunting.
I enjoy all of it, so go where the Lord leads you Brother.
I love the depth that you guys go into for the deer you pursue. I enjoy the out of state pursues that you guys do focusing on a group of deer out of your home states. And a long term land lease with you group of guys would be interesting see what could come up with for that.
Come on out to New Hampshire or Maine and try your hand at doing some urban hunting here or even hit some of the bigger woods!
Unbelievable! Forget the deer I’m glad you’re alive dude
Hey Lee, I am a physician. What you are experiencing is called post traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD. It is a mental and behavioral disturbance that develops from experiencing a traumatic event: like you seeing a dead/decomposing body, threats on your life, and well-being. It can be especially tough when you experience interpersonal violence like kidnapping. It is often described as including disturbing thoughts, feelings, dreams, mental distress, and can lead to attempts to avoid normal relationships, alterations in the way you think and feel, and fight or flight response. Lee, you need a break, you need rest, and you need to talk through this with someone who can help you, a counselor. Ok?
Just remember who you are, and WHOSE you are: you are a child of the King, buddy. John 1:12. I am pulling for you!
Let’s go! Headed to the woods right now in Northeast Arkansas. It’s 3:30 AM so I’ll take the inspiration.
You said long story short!😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Make it a 2 part (1 hr each) story. Once in a lifetime deer. People would watch.
Glad you made it out of that area safe GOD is good all the time and he blessed you with that amazing deer congratulations
I would love to see yall go hunt some Public land and put some time in on it and find the 200 class whitetail, i think yall can do it bc yall put in the time, just a suggestion. Thanks for awesome video's
Great story you should keep doing hunts that tell these kind of stories. Publix would be cool to see only because I could see you getting into interesting encou lnters with deer and other people.
Great job keep it up and God bless
If it wasn’t for you Lee I would’nt have harvested my biggest buck and to date, been watching you for years and this year I went door knocking in D.C and got him! Truthfully stories like charlie and Thor are the goats and I’d love to see you spend more time back in Atlanta even tho I know it’s over populated with hunters now! Thanks for all the content
I love the suburban videos , but maybe try to see how you could try and tackle and conquer being on a lease of just planted/select cut pines or cleat cuts. How much different the hunting style is compared to hunting in the suburbs !
I agree with the land management venture but with an emphasis on getting brand new hunters into the action and teaching them how to do it. See Mark Kenyon of Meateater “the back 40” type stuff.
Enjoyed meeting you guys at the Roswell Doe Day. What if you guys went kind of like an outfitter and did paid suburban guest hunts? Opens a revenue stream for you guys and could be designed in a way that the guests are up and coming hunters. You guys seem to love to teach and could maybe do both at the same time? Just some thoughts for you since you asked!
The deer probably got his big droptines from him taking drugs😂
Let the Kimbo video be 2hrs! I would watch every single second of it!
Definitely would recommend getting into the management side. I look at it as what can I give back to the wildlife cuz so many people just seem to be just talking and trying to squeeze whatever they can out of it.
I’ve been doing the TV gig for 25 years and this will be the best deer story ever told. I agree, you guys need to consider making it two hours. Y’all crushed it. Hats off fellas. Well done.
I think a series of you getting a lease and doing land management from the ground up would be really cool. It would be a new challenge, you would get to the see the progression of the deer on the property, before and after of what the property started as and then where you got it. There’s so much you could do with that. Love the channel and everything y’all do. Keep up the fantastic work
You should get a repo of the antlers and mount those. Keep the original as a skull.
Please have him mounted, that deers amazing. Just do a special mount, like a full sneak with head tilted up with lip curl
I can not wait for the hunt video to drop. I would not care if the episode was over 2 hours
I didn’t get to watch this until til the mid day lull today. 12 hours in a blind in a thicket, about an hour and 20 minutes from where you killed this brute. I agree with everyone else……. I’d watch a 2 hour story on this buck. Multiple times.
As for what to do next………it doesn’t really matter as long as you never forget what made Seek One stand out from everyone else……. The Story. Man, it’s the stories that make your content better than everyone else. The story of each buck. I have a very non descript 8 point on my wall that most people would scoff at. But to me, the story of that little 8…… well, let’s just say that little buck pulled me out of the darkest point in my life. Your channel will never lose viewers as long as you never forget to tell the story.
What state did he harvest this majestic deer?
Great podcast, Kimbo is a world class animal and to have survived in that environment for as long as he did is a testament to whitetails will to live. Can’t wait to see the footage as it unfolded on a future episode. Keep with the suburban hunting you’ve been very successful at it and should continue to do so.
I hunt the same woods as you do in ATL… you put plenty of emphasis on not being the public land guy, but I’d LOVE to watch a public land episode. Make it interesting!
Do you guys ever do seminars or conferences. Id love to have to come to WV and share some of your stories and tips
I love your urban hunting content! I’ve hunted the country for 48 years so very different for me …but love all your passion and hard work ! Can’t get enough of your videos!
I don't care how long this story is...I'd listen to every word! Can't wait for the video to come out.
I love the suburban hunts. I hunt small tracts near my home in Michigan and have learned a ton on how to do that more effectively through you. Thanks so much for sharing so much of yourself with all of us.
I know u said its at 2hrs worth of video now. U should give us the short version and long version video. Some of us want to see the whole story as if we are part of the journey withbu
I love the urban story's I will miss the drama of urban hunting
Dont shorten the video. We want it all. A monster like that the whole story needs to be heard.
Some land management videos would be so cool because a lot of us can relate well to that style of hunting
I still enjoy the suburban hunting but think it would be really cool to see you guys purchase a large tract of land down in Meriwether, Troup or Harris county and manage it
Moral of the story is the biggest bucks are where all hunters are too scared to hunt!!! Your lucky to be alive!!!
Man at the end of the day your true fans are going to always rock with you no matter what style of content you put out. It’s about the personality and the motive behind the hunter than draws so many of us in. Branch out and hunt different styles and different places. Keep being down to earth guys and unapologetically yourself! Good luck and can’t wait to see what the future holds for the seek one boys!!
Incredible story. Can’t wait to watch this episode!
Dude the suburban stuff is sick.
Keep it going while you can. It's not gonna be around for long. Suburban all the way.
Everyone has deer videos.....
Suburban is the best
The plant that’s stays green and red berries you were talking about is probably honeysuckle. It’s everywhere up north.
Congratulations on a stud of a deer and the public land is going to be a whole Nother ballpark if you decide to chase deer on public land, it is always a blast though I have seen some Giants on public land and met and talked to all kinds of different hunters
Keep hunting where u do! No matter where u Hunt or how Dangerous it is or what Situation u are in (God is With you) an has ur back 100% of the time. That being said I’ll keep the Prayers coming ur way. An always for God to have ur back and be thr in Stressful situations! So my opinion I’ve been watching ur videos since ur starting posting them. So the only thing i would like you to change my friend is to Post more 😊 unfortunately not enough time in the day to probably do that and i understand that! Be safe and God Bless
Wildest podcast I have heard holy shit what a vid still congratulations lee those are balls to achieve this deer
Ultimately do what God is calling you to do Lee. Its about his message and will, not ours or yours. If the suburban door is closing its because another one is opening. But there is no doubt He has given you this platform to spread his love.
Personally it would be super great to see you do some public land hunting. I know a lot of us would relate more to that just because of opportunity. It would be super cool to see you take big bucks off of public just because that is such a difficult task. Also land management would be great too. It would be great to see your hunting in other places of hunting.
Lee, i just like channels with people that are no different than my hunting buddies. The style of hunting isn’t that important as long as people can relate to it. In my opinion CZcams channels have blown up because of the relatability. You don’t generally get that on Outdoor channel. No disrespect to them. Y’all have done an amazing job. If you stay true to yourself (cliche) and relatable you’ll continue to kill it regardless the path you take. Good luck the rest of this season.
You should invest into some land and do some habitat management. Everyone would love to see those videos
Would love to see you come to maine and hunt the islands or do some tracking in the big woods...
Great Vid!...I probably miss this...but where did the name Kimbo come from?
Honestly man y’all do suck a great job of getting a good lesson and stuff like that across to people or atleast me lol so as long as your posting I’m cool with it
Crazy Cool story!!
Maybe Get Some land in a Sleeper state or lesser known state for big Whitetails and manage it to see what you guys can grow with the right plan in place. Would be interesting to see and show that it can be done besides just a Midwest state.
I Just Got My First lease of my Own and we’re Trying to grow some good Deer.
It’s a challenge all of its own. Lots of Blood sweat and Tears
I’m sure whatever you decide, It’ll be great.
Enjoy the content!!
Lee- you and the boys have been a huge motivator to get me more into hunting deer. I hunt a range of public property sizes local to me. Being a vastly less experienced and skilled hunter, my goals and challenges are generally different. Your identity does not have to be defined by where/how you hunt. I say just do whatever gets you to enjoy it again. Public land is the most relatable for me, but I also enjoy urban and private hunts. The inspiration that remains with me is the reminder to keep my faith at the core of each hunt for His glory. Not that I do that perfectly, but I am reminded of how you guys do that when I'm hunting and to take time for prayer. This was an impactful story, and regardless of how you hunt in the future I look forward to the content Seek One puts together.
You should put a little buck mount in that room to show how big they all are lol
I love the suburban stuff but it would be cool for the land management
Honest opinion id love to see some trad bow stuff man if you have never done it it will blow your mind at the completely new learning curve with consistency and confidence if your looking for a challenge thats it no matter what ground your hunting public private urban im telling you it just feels right when it happens
Land management would be real cool. Showing deer growing over several years
Call Willie at Buck Commander. I’d like to see u at the E3 Ranch. Love those guys
I'd love to see you do some public land stuff. Not saying that what you do is easy at all, but getting a big deer on public is harder than anything else. If you want a challenge, try to find a big deer on big woods public.
Amazing
Seek one is the most entertaining hunting I’ve seen
Take a trip to Alberta or Saskatchewan and experience a hunt of that caliber!
Did he just say 20 hour round trip damn that’s dedication
Suburban thing is such a cool thing that should continue in the channel although maybe turning a 100 acre and managing it would be equally challenging and awesome
I think a cool challenge idea is kill a monster white tale with a recurve/ long bow would be cool.
Where’s the podcast they tell the story about the kidnapping situation? I feel like I’ve listened to every podcast they’ve had and don’t recall hearing that full story on that situation. Any help is appreciated!
Good video brother God bless y’all
Now you gotta come up here to the Detroit area
Autumn olive is the brush deer love it
