It is great to see Matthew evolving on camera. A while back it was difficult for Randy to drag a couple of words from him. This one was a great show. I thoroughly enjoyed the banter between Randy and son. Well done and a great Buck to boot.
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it!
Randy - Thanks for the positive commentary about the petroleum industry maintaining wildlife habitat. My wife and i manage our land as a wildlife paradise while extracting oil and natural gas. Some land is able to be maintained as wildlife habitat instead of being developed specifically because of the returns from petroleum. These interests are not contradictory. Drill, baby drill!
I appreciate hearing your points of view. Also thanks for accurately calling them "feral" horses.
Looks a whole lot better than seeing wind mills every 100 yards
Marcus, excellent video. I loved to see the bucks fighting and rutting. Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
I really enjoyed Matthew's perspective. He takes in the whole picture.....not just the kill
Awesome hunt and video, not to much theater just a cool father and son hunt. Marcus is the best.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
I grew up hunting that very unit. Haven’t been back for about 6 years now. Brings back so many memories. Thanks for the awesome content Randy.
What a fun series to watch. Great to see Matthew and Randy traipsing around looking at some beautiful animals. Congrats Matthew on a beautiful animal and thanks Marcus for capturing all the action. Can't wait to see what's next.
Great story in this one, love the Randy flashback! Matthew has the patience of Jobe, congrats on a great deer.
I've worked in the gas plant that is in the start of episode 1 since 2006 and want to say as much as I love Randy and how he represents this our sport, he severely miss-represented the oil and gas infrastructure change from when he hunted this unit until 2023. Most of these wells are well over 30 years old, most being drilled in the late 80's and early 90's, but there were many before this. The gas plant was built in the 60's. The oil and gas infrastructure hasn't changed much from 2003 to today. If anything, it is way cleaner.
Those clips of those bucks sparring around the 2min mark is hilarious.
Awesome video and thank you Randy for telling your stories it brings good perspective to our ever changing reality 👍👍
Phenomenal hunt. I can never get bored at looking at deer. Or elk, antelope, moose. Lol!! I really appreciate the perspective you all bring. Looking forward to more videos. Keep doing what you're doing.
Well said Randy! It’s up to us as outdoors people and hunters to stay the course so that future generations can enjoy what we’ve been able to for decades. Congratulations on a great hunt guys!
Thank you! Excellent episode.
Good stuff right there ! Great time spent in the woods together hunting. The buck was just the cherry on top of the of the Sunday. What a beautiful area you guys hunted .
Congratulations Mathew. Great buck.
Thanks for watching!
I love watching Matthew hunt with his dad. It makes me excited to hunt with my kids down the road. Great job!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Great job highlighting the intertwined issues Randy! Nice buck congrats and god bless.
Glad you enjoyed it! We are trying to do more of that! Thanks for watching!
Thank you Randy.
Very welcome! Thank YOU for watching!
Thanks for the rut footage always fun to see. And Uncle Randy, thanks to you for keeping your shoulder against the wheel. You the man, thanks for bringing us along on other great hunt!
Our pleasure! We appreciate you watching!
Way to go Matthew!! Great buck and enjoyed seeing you enjoy watching the buck!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Matthew and Randy, a wise old man, friend, and guide told me years ago, "you can't eat horns" and old bucks and bulls can be pretty rank to eat" , but that said nice buck, and good time spent by father and his son. Memories last a lot longer than the deer steak does. Well done!
Good job. Congratulations!
Nice shot👍👍
Always enjoy watching you fellas, it never gets old. Keep it up!
Glad you enjoy it!
Nicely done!!
Nice shot Matthew
Looks like an awesome hunt and great buck! You too saw more deer than I saw in almost two weeks in southern Colorado this year, 2nd season, and we had whiteout conditions on opening day to track in. A few points burned but found a nice 4x2 on the last day that will feed the family. Buddy in a different into also said bucks were scarce for them so Y’all found a honey hole! Keep up the great content!
It would admittedly be fun to watch someone who is excited to hunt.
Nice mikeal one and done but Randy's right your pick congrats good shooting nice video
Always groovy content! Righteous brothers!
Righteous! Thank for watching!
Congratulations. Nice buck.
Thanks for watching!
Pretty buck!
Nice shot young man!!
I scouted that unit two years ago looking for elk. Saw a few decent bucks. Nothing I would've considered "big" but some good up and comers. Great content as usual Randy. Thanks.
Right on! Thanks for watching!
Nice Shot.
Ty again for all of your great adventures. You keep me wanting to hunt , but I can't get around with bad feet and knees. I'm with you tho on all of yours. Mike
Glad you enjoy the videos!
Nice hunt guys! Someday I want to do likewise with my son or daughter:)
That unit had a hard winter last year. I was there 2nd season hunting elk. We harvested a six point and a five point that season in the same unit. We only saw one buck bigger than 170.
My family and myself have been hunting this unit for many years. The number of mature bucks are definitely declining. The major problems for this are predator management and like you said all of the tags they have been giving out trying to get rid of CWD.
Ol' Matthew, Mr. Excitement.
dang you were right in my back yard.
Great hunt, great Vid!.........One thing is for sure, if the stars done align PERFECTLY, Matthew is not taking a shot. "Last 10 mins of shooting light, I dont want to rush it." "Hes a lil too far, probably not tonight." .......buck is broadside - "Id like him to be a lil more broadside." lol....I enjoy the vids, Randy. Keep'em coming.
So fun to watch Matthew!
Bucket list.
So funny. Ever since I listened to Matt Rinella my opinions and views have changed…..
I find it quite histarical how Randy compliments fish and wildlife for ridding the horses, yet if we were aloud to hunt wild horses I garauntee you “it would be a blessing”
I agree, Lets do it RIGHT.
Very nice hunt , Great to see Son and Father Hunt . I have lived my would life in Colorado , If I have one complaint its the Predator to animal ratio and then some groups out there have the crazy thought that introducing more predators here , Insane Biggest mistake next to the ousting spring bear hunt . God bless you Randy.
Where do I get the unit map for Colorado that says "Stupid deer live here"? That is so different from blacktail hunting it's amazing.
Dinosaur area? What unit. Great job guys
My home state and have hunted for many years. Mule deer are my favorite species to hunt and have harvested some very nice bucks. My personal opinion is that Colorado needs to go back to an antler point restriction, 3 points or better. Let the smaller bucks breed, this will create more deer and also this will allow them to mature and grow bigger antlers. The more we as hunters keep harvesting the spikes and fork horns, the buck to doe ratio declines and the number of deer declines due to them not being able to breed and mature. Thanks for the great video and information. Job well done Mathew. Enjoy those hunts with your father just like I have.
Meh. Antler restrictions seem to only put pressure on the best quality younger deer, the very ones you want to recruit into old age. I’d rather meat hunters take meat bucks and not force them to shoot the better quality deer.
@@phild9813 just like elk. Chase a 4 point bull or better. The spikes will branch if u let them. Shooting any buck with antlers doesn’t leave much around to breed. I’m all about the meat but just hunt a little harder and find a 3 point or better. Just as it use to be
But, but that gas and oil is bad….Lol Great job guys….
Is Howa gonna come out with a Randy Newberg edition of the superlite?
Nice deer! What gun did you use, Caliber? good episode as usual.
They tell you in the show before the shot. This one was a 7mm-08. It’ll always be a Howa.
Nice deer ,gotta question randy what orange vest are you wearing ,I like the chest zipper pocket
I’m sure a reply directly from Randy would be more exciting but I’m sure he is still hunting 😅. Looks like a Sitka jet stream vest in blaze orange. Much better looking and more useful than the ballistic vest they have.
It's the Stratus Vest from Sitka! Very warm piece! Here is a link! bit.ly/3uS6lFM
The streets of meeker during 3rd season aren't the same. The bucks you would see in the backs of pickups 30 yrs ago was alot different than today.
I’ve always wanted to hunt Colorado just don’t know where to put in. What unit is this?
I think you chose wrong...that 3 x 3 was way cooler :). Nice deer though....
where can i get that shooting rest connected to the tripod? thanks for the great video
It's actually a gopro mount. Here it is, but I'd say there are better mounting options out there. There are cheaper knockoffs on Amazon. gopro.com/en/us/shop/mounts-accessories/jaws/ACMPM-001.html
thank you so much@@Fresh_Tracks
We’re you in the Rifle CO area
What scope are you guys running on your rifles?
Leupold VX-5 HD's 3-15X44mm! They Rock! bit.ly/47XkSi7
Is Randy’s hunt from 20 years ago from this same unit on CZcams or somewhere to watch?
Nope. I didn't own a camera at that time.
awesome videos, i am likely hunting this same tag in 2024
was this in 2023 (this year)? if so did you find any issue with the winter kill? seems like yall saw plenty of bucks!
It was 2023. The number of bucks was stated to be down. Given it takes 8-10 points for this tag, we don't have any recent baseline to compare it with.
@@Fresh_Tracks thanks a ton 🙏
I know you don't want to tell exactly what unit you were in, but having never hunted Colorado what region of CO were you in?
🤔😳😂
@@edwardabrams4972 what's so funny? Northeast, Northwest, Southeast, Southwest........I want to know where that terrain is in Colorado.
Everyone keeps talking about it.....what unit is this?
Go ahead and say it. Road hunting!! Lol.
Randy, oil drilling is much more compatible with wildlife than ranching where the grass is leased and ranchers run stocker operations which denude the soil and despoil the waterways.
They are both compatible, if done properly and in consideration of the many other uses, including wildlife considerations, of these "multiple use" lands.
Maybe they should limit the road traffic to the wells for gas company employees working.
That high shoulder shot dropped him. Take note.
Colorado sure isn't doing it right. Wildlife has been mismanaged for years, and now with the introduction of wolves it's just going to get worse. Way to go eastern slope.
Great video, you were in my backyard. Beautiful country
Come up to North Idaho and I'll treat you to some alfalfa fed whitetail backstraps and tenderloins! Ever had venison smokies?
Venison smokies sound nice!
"The one?" Nice buck but a qualifier of "the one."
It qualified as "The One" for Matthew. Thats all that matters. Thanks for watching!
If anyone is wondering…. The unit is 21.
Why don't you hunt washington state
Lead poisoning problem 😂😂😂
What area in Colorado are you hunting?
They are in North West Colorado by Craig
@@muleybuckco oh ok I hunted that area back in the 80’s and also in Mabel and Rangely.Always enjoyed hunting in Colorado because I got tired of hunting in California unless I was lucky enough to get drawn in the X-zones which was rare
Imprint at a minimum?! Wow...I can't believe I heard Randy say that! The energy companies have a commitment to their shareholders and by state law wildlife is just something they have to work through just like knocking trees down when they build a road.. Road hunting? Back when Randy hunted the unit in 2003 these roads didn't exist and now I hear from resident hunters who complain the big bucks aren't there anymore. Well, look at how much country the roads have opened and how easy it is road hunt and kill a buck, any buck. I use their fuel so can't be hypocritical but if energy developers committed to locking the roads behind gates and kept road hunting to a minimum you might let some of the younger bucks grow into older age class bucks. Roads vs. big bucks...you can't have one with the other.
He’s a bit like my son was when he was little…. I would turn him lose on the boys toy isle and tell him to pick a toy…… an hour later, he’d have it narrowed to 2 toys. And then negotiate with himself as to which one. 🙄🙄😵💫
Matthew doesn't seem to quite have that killer instinct randy does, the videos he's been in seem like he's more interested in watching wildlife rather than harvesting them. He is defiantly not into it like Randy is. I wonder if he would continue to hunt if randy wasn't around, to each his own i guess.
woulda taken that 3 all day over that 4 tho
Montana is worse. A biologist told me mule deer are down 70-80%. According to FWP, 29% of total tags are nonresident. And every dead buck I see is a young one. I don't think most guys know what a mature buck looks like.
If they are willing to put there tag on it what does it matter
@@daneblackburn613Are you dumb? If it keeps going the way it is, there won't be any mule deer to hunt. Down 70-80% means the population is in a steep decline.
Totally agree. They saw some pretty nice deer compared to eastern montana.
wont be good for much longer now that the fools left wolves go there.
To paraphrase Jurassic Park, "…I’ll tell you the problem with the (social media) power that you’re using here, it dosen't require any discipline from your audience to attain it. Your audience sees what you have done and tries to follow in your footsteps. They don't earn the knowledge themselves, and you take no responsibility for the mess you, and they, make. Your audience stands on your shoulders to accomplish things decades faster than they would on their own. Change is happening as so fast that before you even knew what damage you are doing to hunting across the west, you patent the content it and package it and slap it on a plastic lunch box and now you’re selling it (and your sponsors)…You and those like you were so preoccupied with making money doing something you love, you took no thought to stop and think if you should, or what the consequences would be. Point creep, tag price increase, increased hunter density in the wests best units, all can be laid at your feet. When all the good you do has crowded out the little guy from being able to participate in a decent annual hunt, what was it all for again?
I think you’re right, he saving to meet👍👍🫵👁️
