- On this week's episode we join Mike Reed on the hunt for the biggest whitetail he's ever harvested. Not only is the buck giant, but the recovery for the deer leads Mike into the river. Then we join Jake Sproule, Mike's camera man who is able to tag a great buck on public land in Iowa. Jared Mills provides an update on the Mystery buck ultimately closing the story. Finally, we get updates from the rest of the team.

Might be best episode of MW Whitetail yet. Mike's hunt, wow. Has it all. Jake snort wheeze, then absolutely SMOKED that buck, and public land makes it even sweeter. Great work guys, we really enjoy the channel.
What a beautiful buck! I would be swimming in that freezing river too if I had to retrieve a buck like that. Congratulations. Still can't believe you past it up the first time. Wow!
All great footage..keep up the good work ..keeping us entertained...hope all goes well with Owen..god bless.
Great Video, hell of a hunt. Monster Buck. Great Job tracking him
Great save. Congratulations on that monster. I know the feeling of the River right behind me. ROCKY
Great Hunt Guys and what a story from both!
A great buck deserves a great retrieve. Neat story. Congrats fellas!
Great looking deer . Good thing there wasn't a lot of current in the river or the deer may have been lost . Good recovery effort, don't think I ever saw one like that. Great deer.
Great video! Congrats guys on a couple fine bucks.
Awesome hunts and unbelievable deer. Thanks for great videos
Awesome job! Congrats 👍
you guys keep getting better.
That is one beautiful buck. Congrats
Once again Mike you got another monster down!!! Super job this season! My early season ended yesterday😐. Lost the biggest buck of my life, public land he could of been 180!? Idk but this has still been an epic season!!!!! Hey guys I’ve been watching MWW for years and years!!!! Love it all great show great music great job!!!!!
Can’t get enough Outdoors hope you can find him! Always tough when that happens. Thanks for the support!
Well done video! But i have to call bunk on passing on a 200 inch buck on public land, nun the less privet land. Cant say i have ever heard of anyone who has done that regardless of the bucks age. I am in a coop in Georgia about 2800 acres . Our minimum is 130 inches and we pass on a fare amount of deer that size. I would say we will only see 10 to 20 percent of those deer the next year.
You guys create awesome hunting films!!! Love the dedication and education you share with everyone!!
Thanks Ashy. We appreciate the support. Happy Easter. -Bill
Awesome buck! Congratulations
Mike what an awesome deer and the hunt well let’s say the recovery was one of the best stories I’ve heard in a long time using that drone to find a deer was so cool and you got lucky on that one but I do have one question do you even remember being cold after you drag that deer across the river I bet not because I remember a time when to I had to drag a mature buck across neck deep water and I can’t remember being cold at all man really truly appreciate all the videos and the time you guys put in everything getting videos out and the effort you guys have put into showing what it means to be a true hunter is really inspirational even if you don’t think so it’s impacting people you can count on it because for sure right now your videos and the way your hunt has impacted my life thank you for bringing this to us🇺🇸💪🙏 as always stay safe out there and no matter what keep moving forward😎
VAMPIRE Thanks man! Definitely feel lucky! Certainly appreciate it. I get a lot of joy out of filming my hunts and sharing with my family and friends. If others can enjoy it or get something out of it, all the better. Glad you enjoyed it. Mike
You guys are hardcore to swim in your long johns in a freezing river to retrieve that big buck was awesome! I would of looked for a boat some where but I'm a wimp! Great Job Men!!
Hardcore ti go get a 200binch deer, give me a break
Wow what a buck Jake... being able to pass 2 and 3 year olds on public land is a blessing... around here in upstate NY our bucks either get shot at that age or get hit by cars...
Thank you! I’m actually from upstate NY.... I feel your pain. That being said there are plenty of really good public land opportunities in New York that allow you to get away from the beaten path.
This is the best whitetail hunting series ever. Great job!
99 problems but a fish ain't one it’s a good one but you should look up the hunting public! Few of the guys used to work for Midwest whitetail and I feel they do a better job!
@@casonash7028 hunting public has turned to shit in past 2 years. Having all these dipshits on talking about big spikes. Hunting from a damn swinging saddle like a girl and shooting scrub bucks. They need to get back to lock ons, Iowa hunting, mature deer management and passing scrubs or I will not watch them anymore. That mike and joe from that other show had ruined hunting public for me, out there in a red flannel cigarette smoking in the tree talking about I'm gonna shoot that big spike..... that's when you know hunting public has went to shit
That's pretty sweet congrats
Shot looked good
First sub to a hunting channel. Especially after only viewing one video. I subscribe to a lot of fishing channels but usually can’t quite subscribe to any hunting channels. Anyway, keep up the good work!
Thanks Dennis. We appreciate your support.
Got give it a like for the buck and the swim
Great shot
All good!
Over the river and through the woods
Great hunt guys! What model is the drone that was used? Have you guys had pretty good success with it?
Unreal, crazy crazy hunt..👍👍
Thanks Backwoods_bowhunter17. We appreciate it.
Yes this how we do it down south
I've taken too many deer before maturity. Primarily thinking someone else would shoot them if I didn't. About 5 years ago I decided no more, I'd rather let the cards fall as they may. I hope you take the same mind set soon.
This is what the broad side shot get you A swim in the river. Quartering away shots eliminates this crazy stuff.
That's the stupidest reply I have ever read this is what hitting the deer a little back gets you
I second that. I'll make sure the next time I have a 200" whitetail less than 20 yards away, I tell him to come through my shooting lane slightly quartering away. But if he isn't perfectly quartering away then I won't take a shot at him with my bow.....Paul Blackburn, you Sir need to let someone proofread your no brain comments from now on.
Funny coincidence, killed the best buck of my life this past weekend after forgetting my grunt tube. Keep the great content coming!
Nick Mizera congrats.
Congrat
What a beautiful animal
Epic MWW season guys!!!!!!
Holy jesus, how the hell did you convince yourself to pass that buck?.....congratulations on a fantastic animal!
joseph Smith still not sure Joseph! Haha. Glad I got another chance!
Who ever gave these guys a thumbs down , there is something wrong with ya !!!! Lol great hunt contracts.
wow,,nice bucks,,guys
Was tat a saga or a soggy? Nice recovery of a great buck
😣beautiful buck antlers nice
holy crap what public land are you hunting on
Holy shit! I was born and STILL am a proud archery “blacktail” hunter but...my land , THAT IS A DANDY BUCK! 👍🏼 great job and awesome recovery
i wonder how much time and how many hours of filming it takes for an intern to get a chance at a hit list buck on there private land instead of having him hunt public land..my guess is never
WOW
Man awesome footage. Would you guys have found him you think without drone? I lost a 170” near Iowa city last week when he went into marsh and considered asking someone if they had drone
Josh Sparks man you have great footage too. I wonder if we’re hunting the same areas. I hit that deer on 9th. I had a ton of pink blood for 700y!!! I think I went in too early about 3 hours just due to all the blood. You think it’s too late to do a scan for him?
Josh Sparks no Facebook but I got you up on Nmedia email
You got extremely lucky not to lose that deer in the river. Had it died in the middle it may have been a different story
When your that calm after shooting a monster, you see big deer all the time or theres something wrong.
I am WAY more calm with bucks than I am with does. Bucks are typically on a mission and could care less that you are in the stand. Does you need to be 100% perfect in everything you do to not spook or alert them - at least in my area.
mark batzel for sure
Should have brought the fishing tackle as well
Pull a 100 pound channel cat and a 200" whitetail from the same hole!
Great deer but did you find the coyote
2 thumbs up!
Thanks BoneHeads Outdoors.
nice bow would love to have it, but it sounds very loud!!
What did the mystery buck end up scoring?
199 1/8 according to Quest Hunt Co
@@marcusk1735 7/8" shy of 200?!?! ughhh. nothing like a backhand slap on a deer of a lifetime
how do you tell how hold they are.Thanks
A lot of times we have trail camera photos or sightings of the deer when they were young. It is easy to age 1 1/2, 2 1/2 and usually 3 1/2, but after that it can be a bit tough if you don't have that history with the deer to know for sure. -Bill
Chevy3939 just before you shoot them you ask sometimes they answer
Co op? So it's not public?
It's getting to the point where all of these hunters you see have big $$. How many guys hunting do you know who have drones? Hunting has become a business more than a lifestyle for some.
Jerry, producing these videos is our business. That is why we have drones. -Bill
#MIKEphelps
Can someone please educate me on how this deer is measured to come up with 200” s ...? I’m not a deer 🦌 hunter, yet ...
You add up the lenght of all the tines, the length of the beams and the circumference around each beam in four places per side. Then you throw in the width inside the beams to come up with what we call "total gross score". For official scoring they then deduct for certain differences between the two antlers. We always just use total gross because it is much easier to calculate and visualize. Good luck deer hunting. You will love it.
Midwest Whitetail Thank you sir ...
Public land bucks are impressive. Anybody can kill a big deer on private land with controlled harvest and access
Exactly. I hunt about the only unposted land I can find and do well Got A 133 this year and A 169 last year.
You wrong about anybody killing big deer on private land. Deer hunting is hard where there is not a lot of big bucks.
@@paulblackburn931 sure, some places dont have the genetics. some places are over hunted. I am talking about the people who control the harvest of bucks and limit the access. Its not that impressive. anybody who does that will eventually shoot a big buck or they are a real poor hunter.
You think the coyote died?
Why do you guys Re post old videos with new titles?
Pissed me off. lol
They don’t, you most like follow the daily page, which has video blogs and the main page.
Sorry if it’s confusing. We have 5 video blog series on our daily channel. Owen, bill, Jared, myself, and public. Has 20k subscribers. Historically we haven’t shown the kills on the blogs but this year we are trying it out. The main channel has 80k or so subscribers so there are many people that don’t watch the blogs. The blogs come out daily or as close to it as we are hunting. The main show comes out every Monday. We try to highlight the main action on the main show including things that were shown on the blogs since so many people don’t see the blogs. Hope that makes sense. We appreciate feedback. Always looking for the best way to bring content to the viewers. Thanks
I almost shot a 180+ deer i think around that score and i shot over his back about 2 weeks ago and i never saw it again
Berry_ YT I’m sorry for your loss
What county do u guys hunt in when your in Iowa.
#TRUMP2020LANDSLIDE
Deee
Bigguns.
He’d have been a good un next year
Do you not think he was good when he was shot
A 200 inch deer in a high-pressured area that you passed at least once and then were even hesitant about shooting… Some of you guys are so damn spoiled!!!!
Hi Mike, I hope powdered deer hooves helps with your erectile dysfunction - good luck to you and your life-partner Jared.
Give me some Hope's and praise I've never killed one and I need some extra Hope's and praise plz
Misleading
Bad bad shot.
I snort weeze with my mouth all the time
Nobody cares
Kyle Marter you try that shit in Florida wear i hunt the deer run away there chicken shit down hear
Saunders Sonoran hunts
THAT IS NOT PUBLIC LAND!!!!!!
Kylee Long you're correct Mike didn't shoot his buck on public land. However, Jake was able to tag a great buck that was shot on public land. If you didn't watch, it's directly following Mike's kill. Have a great day.
Never said it was on public hints the comma after that post about the 200ninch deer.
That comma will get ya every time 😝
Lol not public land when you name the buck. I don't believe that one bit. If you truly hunt public you rarely ever seen the same buck let alone naming it. Private land not public
I quit watching when you show that up front and don’t shoot it that’s stupid. I don’t care what you have left to show.
U know u guys are having a hard time when u have to do a 30 min video recapping previous videos. By the way next time leave out the spoiled part about not shooting that buck the first time. U some of u guys have no clue what u are doing and have lucked out getting land this amazing with giants just roaming by stand after stand in the middle of daylight. U guys could never kill big bucks on public
bowhunter 4 life 😁
Yes...clearly they're having a hard time and dont know what they're doing. Smh
The hate is strong with this one
Pass this buck? You are a moron. 200 inches? You were waiting for what? 250?
This is NOT real hunting!...
How is it not real hunting
