    Elk hunting is usually a team effort. To get one, with traditional equipment no less, and then pack it out by yourself, AND film it, just WOW! YOU DA MAN! I am an avid archery elk hunting. I KNOW how much work that was! Congratulations and good, no, GREAT job getting the video! 😍😍😍

    This is probably the most exciting self filmed elk hunt I’ve ever seen on CZcams. Amazing job!

    Awesome experience!! I had two diy Elk bow hunts in Colorado and my second trip , on the first morning's hunt I called up a herd bull who came rushing in after I cow called with another bull calling past me ...He had slobbers hanging down when he came screaming in..I was kneeling in some high weeds and let my arrow fly at about 42 yards hitting low and in the heart.. Just as he started to run I hit the cow call and he stopped, looking for her. I tried to nock another arrow , but my hand was shaking too badly now..I was worried the arrow hit too low..he started to walk slowly away and just as I saw him turn to go down a ridge he tipped over. I waited about a half hour , then slowly attempted to follow his trail even though he wasn't very far. Just then I hear something rush in just in front of me..(possibly the other bull) I wasn't sure at first if it wasn't my bull, but it wasn't, because I looked just past him and could see my bulls antlers sticking out of the weeds a short distance away. The most exciting hunt of my life! I was only about a half mile or so from my camp, but a rookie at this, so i didn't realize the spruce tree I marked with survey tape looked like a christmas tree when I was done. lol This was before GPS and their was no sure way of knowing exactly my location. Thanks for the great video and hunt! Subbed!!

    Nice job and congratulations on a beautiful elk with you recurve. You capture the essence of the hunt very well for a solo filmed hunt. Nothing like a solo hunt eh? So fulfilling.

    I'm not sure Ive ever had buck fever watching a video! Excellent video brother! I've killed lots of elk with a compound bow, never a recurve! I told myself that once I kill a 300'' bull with my compound I will switch to recurve.

    that high and back shot on that bear can be VERY effective. I did the same thing with a nice large bear, if you cut the dorsal aorta before it divides into the femoral arteries they will be dead within seconds!

    That was epic! Congratulations! Thank you for sharing. You realy took me for 25 minutes for the real hunt what Im only dreamig about. Ive been shooting och praktising for few years but here in Sweden its not to allow to hunt with the bow. But I do. Even if only in my head and on the 3D course. Ishoot only with "hunting setup just to be so real if it ever comes. You know that feeling that you know that you are a hunter but cant hunt... wish I was there! Thanks!
