Tide Swing - An Alaskan Bear Hunt
Vložit
- čas přidán 19. 04. 2022
- Last spring Brandon Purcell set off on a unique adventure chasing spring black bears in Coastal Alaska. In these areas black bears key in on green grass that grows voraciously along banks near the ocean and where small streams and creeks enter the ocean. Constant tide swings reveal oysters and barnacles that the bears also add to their diet. Joining forces with locals Dan Peters and Jesse Knock the guys set out on a boat based adventure in search of big bruins and an experience of a lifetime.
Produced by the SG Art Dept.
THAT INTRO, JESUS!!! THIS IS INCREDIBLE. TOP GRADE PRODUCTION
Thanks!
My brother in his element doing what he was born to do! So proud Jess!
Yellow jacket guy seriously asked if the only obvious bear that was out in the open that he was also stalking for who knows how long, was the bear? Some people man 😂
Great camera work! And the good old lever gun toped it off!
The camera work was fantastic. The stalks and over the shoulder looks at the bears was awesome
What a trip guys, hunts like these are the American dream👍
What a great adventure and film! The editor did a great job capturing the whole story, including all the stalks that didn't result in a kill. The little scene about mechanical issues on the boat struck with me too. Last season we had a mechanical failure after about a 3 hour boat ride to get to the hunting area. I had a nice bear spotted on shore at about 400 yards from where the boat was positioned, but we couldn't restart the main engine to reposition it and then launch the inflatable. So hunting became a secondary priority to troubleshooting the engine and just getting back safe. It was a nice 6'+ black bear (no rubs on the hide) that took his time eating some kelp and watching us dink around with the engine for about 30 min before he finally wandered off. We ended up taking the kicker back to harbor, which was about a 15 hour putz at 5-6 kts. Good times...
T - Minus one month until I am planning on going out myself for a redemption trip. This film dropped just in time as a great primer!
Good on ya for the ending. All bear hunters stress about taking a sow wether they admit it or not.
Nice video bad bow hunters... dude with rifle was boss.
Thoroughly enjoyed it…Well done in every way. What a trip!
Some of the finest video quality out there. Well done fellas!
jesus christ that intro hard me in goosebumps 10/10... great video overall. subbed
Congratulations you guys. Great video, thank you for sharing!
I need more content like this. Such a beautiful place and quality filming
Love it, what a trip!
Can't wait to fulfill my dream of an Alaskan hunt! Great video!
Great Video! Daniel is the man! He has helped me a number of times to get on fish and have a good time!
Yes he's a true AK beast.
Good film, thanks for sharing!
Man disappointing to have a guy with so much blood lust he is pissed about his own miss judgment. A trip like that and the guy seams unimpressed the whole time and cranky about his bear. To bad.
Awesome video guys! Takes me back to when i guided black bear and griz on the northwest coast of B.C.
Its crazy how similar your hunt was to the many i guided, you brought forth the true ocean bear hunt with the sights and sounds and bear sightings!
Thanks for taking me back! It was my favoright hunts of the year!
Good job on the bears, sows can be tough to judge especially under pressure!
finest video quality .... awesome film ...
Barely through it and love it. Great job Zach! Always inspiring.
Thanks!!
Zach made this one? way to go!
Been a dream of mine to go up there with my .41 Blackhawk. Such beautiful country! Watching the video and several times I kept thinking, I’ve seen those shore lines before…, that bit of trees coming across the shore looks eerily familiar…. Probably not but several of the coves remind me of several of the coves that Randy Newberg has shown bear hunting.
Good video guys!
Great video but i've never seen such a small amount of mustard put on a burger haha
Epic film
That was an awesome video, makes me want to plan a trip to Alaska, and thanks for showing having to fix the boat that is a real life situation that seems to happen. Can't wait for the next one.
Yes we we're lucky Dan knows so many people or else we probably would have been stranded there longer
Awesome as usual
Awesome Job fellas! Look like a good time.
Awesome job with the film! You get a good sense of how thick it is here in SE and how difficult it is to navigate the woods. Also the challenge of the inconsistencies of the wind off the ocean and a smart bear. Good shit fellas🙌🏽
Yes it's definitely tougher than it appears on a surface level there in SE.
Major awesome video!!!
Great adventure! I had the same thing happen to me on my first trip to Southeast. I was disappointed to harvest a giant old sow…for a little bit. She was 14 years old and alone. Bears are hard to judge. It’s the adventure and the awesome rug I have reminds me of it almost daily. I’m ready to go back after watching this
Absolutely Todd! Sometimes disappointment reminds us the experience is and always will be the true trophy.
awesome! Bring on the spring bears :)
Looks like a lot of fun
Great video SG! Alaska is a special place.
Thanks!
This episode hit me deep, I don’t hunt but I felt what’s so special. Unbelievable job at filming and editing
Thanks for sharing! We're just trying to share epic experiences so glad it resonated with you.
@@stoneglacier9636 your welcome, the hard work shines through
Freaking awesome video guys!!!!
Killer edit
8:38 subconsiously i thought "dont shoot that" idk something about being that close, and that bear was just grazing eating grass, not even worried about a thing..something about it felt off, and then you drew, i waited...
great video, ill be checking out more
One of my favorite places…Can’t wait for November! 🏹
It's a special spot up there undoubtedly.
Cool hunt! Great adventure I'm sure
Always love watching these Alaska boat hunts, and great cinematography! I'm heading out for a 4 day hunt here in British Columbia next week, soI'm super stoked to see new footage right as I'm gearing up to head out...keep up the great work!!
Where abouts in BC? Be a few weeks up north here before the bears will be moving much
Thanks and good luck on your hunt!
@@tylershumaker8875 I'm on the South Coast, so I hunt mostly the coastal and cascade ranges for spring bear. There's been a few taken down here already, but I usually hold off until the last week of April at least to really get after them because the weather's always so hard to predict down here...every year's so different. Good luck up there!
Very nice camera work guys!!!! Great hunt!!👍👍😀
That intro. Very nice.
Thanks you!
gran trabajo . visualizando desde españa
love it
Chin up, well done!
Great cinematography.
Thanks Roy!
I love all Meateater content but it’s really cool to see quality competition!
Thanks Chris!
Solid work by the Capt. that dog wanted no part of the bear ha! same with ours. Good haul, Alaska has it draw on us all.
Man I moved away from SE AK last December and man this makes me miss it
That shot at 41:00 is just sad. Straight target panic and buck fever. You don't need Jesus. YOU NEED JOEL TURNER!
Great video guys!
Thanks!
awesome awesome video
Thanks Kurt!
Spot prawns and black bears! Hopefully we’ve got good weather and our bears are out in a week! If so, that’ll be me:)
Great hunt guys.
Thanks!
Man what a fun time in Alaska
Decent film but definitely have a lot of work to do to get to Gritty film level 3 out of 10😎
Good to know! We'll work on getting our scores up for the next round of films!
Amazing Hunt, Would love to do that
Great footage but I think someone needs to learn the patience game when bow hunting!
and maybe try some camo patterns
@@mrgboxx you mean wearing a tan/yellow sweatshirt doesn’t count?! Haha he stood out like a sore thumb !
And getting pissy when the bear spotted you out in the open asking the camera guy if thats the right bear? Come on you know theres a bear out so stick to the bushline and move in
Please don’t hesitate to share your vast experience and opinion on how another man should hunt. Everyone has their own hunting style, this place would be pretty boring if everyone acted, talked and even hunted the same exact way. Just watch the video and refrain from criticizing someone else’s preferences.
@@SpanishFly801 cry then
My man was hard scoping the corner in the end
Eatin' like kings.
40min in to this and I can't help but feel like these guys should've let some arrows fly already.. made respect for the effort but arrows gotta fly to punch your tag.
Excellent video, Well done. Yes bears have the best nose in the wild but do you think wearing some good camo would helped at all?
Honestly wearing black was probably better than camo in our opinion.
@@stoneglacier9636 Tks
Kudos to an ethical hunter not taking the shot at a bear in a tree! If it isn't illegal, it should be.
We asked ADF&G and they said under those circumstances shooting that bear in the tree would be legal. Not definitively knowing the law and the scenario feeling weird we obviously elected to pass.
Was this through an outfitter, or just people you all know up there? I'm very interested in going and doing something like this! I also feel like being a right handed shooter would have been such an advantage -- I feel like every stalk was really awkward for the lefty shooter
No this was just a great hunt with friends.
Nice trip all together. Job well done. where can I sign up?
Which model Lund is that?? Looking at picking up!
Not sure unfortunately Trevor!
I would have shot the 6' 8 to 7 foot bear the first day without a second thought. A really nice trophy with a bow. Frankly, I have never understood not taking a mature prime animal instead of waiting for a declining animal. The day one bear has bred and passed on the genes, so available for harvest in my book. Its like passing on "the rock" to take George Burns. I enjoyed the fellow shooting the marlin 336 in 30-30. I don't play with sharp sticks but I have taken 3 with a lever action in 50 Alaskan.
Not sure how much time in boots American hunters get but that stalk game needs some work. Good vid though
Those pants worn in this video reminds me of a 70s movie. What's the deal with the bell bottoms.
M5 or M7...cant make the decision
Love to hunt. I'm a big dude and have to wear Sitka because it fits. Love your packs but can't wear your clothing.
Great film boys! Only one series critique..... WHO BRINGS MUSTARD and NOT KETCHUP?!
That's definitely a real concern and we agree, ketchup before mustard especially when we're talking burgers!!
I want to go on a hunt with this guy
maybe light tan isnt the best color to wear on green grass flats.
Did HBO film this?
Our Director of Content Zack Boughton filmed it.
@@stoneglacier9636 that was a compliment to how good it was. Epic quality.
@@cnna12392 Thank you!!
Did you really drop a bear with a 30-30 ?????
All the gear no idea, lazy stalking, probably didn’t want to get clothes dirty lol hey but good camera skills though keep it up
Great video but maybe hold off on the F bombs so I can share it with my kids!;)
Pass on a good Boar because "its the first day" only to shoot a sow on the last..
Don't pass on anything the first day that you'd be happy with on the last
Did that guy call the fist bear you drew on 7 foot???? No F-ing way that was 7 foot. Big eyeing SOB. Wish I had a dollar for ever bear that got big eyed a foot bigger or 100 pounds heavier.
Quality video.... but the language sucks!
My thoughts exactly. I live watch SG with my young boys. Keep it clean please.
@@davidfehr8057Perhaps you could teach your boys that the words aren’t to be used even if you hear someone else use it.
For whatever this is worth......let me tell you a little about what I've learned from 22 years living in the remoteness of Northern British Columbia. In regards to your feelings about shooting a sow, predators fall under a very different category than ungulates when it comes to male vs female harvest. There's a certain political correctness that wants to dominate our thinking about this. I know you're not really in great ungulate country there, so it's probably not a huge deal, but an over abundance of predators is not good. We have so many bears here in our area, the ungulates are suffering badly. Shooting a sow is just as good of a management idea as anything. Just my thoughts......not every one will like them......
Incredible video!
Biggest critique on SG videos is not being able to watch them with the next generation of hunters because of the language.
Every youngster we can get interested in hunting the better because hunters are becoming a minority in this country
Anyways Congrats!
We try to keep these as clean as we can and try to instruct our guys to keep it clean during filming but a couple seem to slip through as that's just reality. Appreciate the feedback!
What caliber/bullet did u use??
