- I had the honor to film Pennsylvania hunter, Mike Weaver, on a once in a lifetime bulk elk hunt. Mike was guided by Carey Bollman of Elk County Outfitters and his son Colton. Carey had 3 bulls in mind that he wanted to go after. It took awhile, but with excellent scouting and patience, Carey was able to put Mike on the number one bull on his hit list.
Just for the folks that dont know , this is not elk hunting this is buying a bull from a elk rancher. Please do not confuse this with actual hunting
Exactly... not hard to pay 20 grand if u got money, walk in a pen and shoot an animal
Yea when you see a tractor and a speed limit sign. You are not elk hunting
Where's the ear tag. Since ranch bulls are required to have identification according to your stupid comment. Ignorance is the new norm. PA has a great WILD elk herd and produces some of the biggest scoring bulls in the US. PA also has a draw system to obtain a very coveted and limited quota of tags each fall. Do some research before spitting mouth garbage without any clue.
Having hunted Elk in Utah and New Mexico....WTF is this?!?!
Can't stand someone telling me how & WHEN to shoot!!! GUIDE or no GUIDE!!!
glad I'm not the only one
Legendary hunt! 😂…. If you call that a guided hunt then i’m an astronaut.
A guide should never be the first to touch the antlers of downed animal. That is reserved for the hunter. Great bull!
Nice domestic bull, kind of risky having your hunter shot sky line tho😮
Angus (that's beef cattle for all y'all in PA) are wilder than that out here in MT.. I'd like to take that "guide" on an elk hunt out here.... it would be comedy of the highest order. 😂
"It's him"???? Ya think, he is only 75 yards from you if that and you have to use binoculars to check. Domesticated without a doubt. That's not a guide by a far stretch of the imagination!
I have issue when the guide grabs the animal before the hunter. Let the hunter enjoy the once in a lifetime experience. You guides can touch and hold it later. While this public hunt is much different than a hunt out west in the wilderness, it’s a elk hunt in an area where elk have successfully been transplanted from Jackson Hole Wyoming. With a never ending supply of green feed and water year round, not subject to the extreme conditions elk out west endure from drought to winter kills, they are producing a lot giants out east. I’m sure this hunter never dreamed of hunting elk in PA in his lifetime, if they keep managing the herds properly that kid one day will get the same chance. For those saying this is not a “ real hunt” it’s a real hunt, just way different than what most hard core elk hunters think of. These elk are around many more people from farmers, miners and live on much smaller tracks of land than a wilderness area in the Rockies. Thanks for sharing
😂😂why would u need a guide when u can drive through the herd step out of the truck and shoot him😂😂
I agree 100%. The hunter should always be the first human to touch the animal.
Guide. Good one. He’s got work to do. Get them golf carts charged for tomorrow’s scramble.
🤣🤣🤣your kidding on the public land right.... did u not see the house in the background that the person videoing got in the upper right frame then quickly come back down to the...( hunter) 🤣 while he was texting or looking up someone on his phone... I'm going to take a wild guys like guess that the house/ ranch house was roughly 200 yards back.... if this was remotely even close to public land, I wanna hunt it...I wanna be able to drive out through the herd while they are so wildly grazing and be like that's the bull I want... then drive off and make it look like a rough finding him for a couple days while driving around... not to mention at how (so wild looking that they looked like while feeding and being driven by🤣🤣) in packing my shiz and moving to the promos land where I could fill my freezer with EASE every year🤣🤣
Ummm... what's going on here? Ive never seen a elk hunt like this. 😂 All this seems so contrary to all other elk hunts.
Ranch
@@mickyd6664 has to be. Didn't even seem enjoyable 😂
These are elk transplanted from Jackson Hole Wyoming area and are free ranging wild elk. While different than a hunt out west these elk are wild and have a different home range from farms, old mine areas and smaller stands of woods on public and private property. They are producing big elk as there are very limited tags, once in a lifetime. Because of lots of green feed and water and plenty of feed from farmsteads the elk in PA are putting up very big numbers on their antlers and bodies. These elk are much more accustomed to people from the farmers to workers but also not being able to disappear into big deep canyons or 10,000 foot mountain basins. The elk in PA, Kentucky and other eastern herds are seeing elk in areas they have not been in for over a 100+ years. It’s hard to compare these hunts with the small elk populations and only in pockets out east to that of big herds In massive wilderness areas. In some areas the wardens encourage certain animals to be taken and know where they will most likely be. It’s all part of trying to manage the small populations as they continue to grow to be around in the future. Although the hunt looks like a high fence ranch these are not that. I have friends who never in their lifetime would elk ever be returned to these areas let alone see them start to hold hunts and turn out the size they are consistently doing.
I grew up hunting Idaho, Montana, Wyoming and now live in Arizona and while I think these hunts out east are fun to see as they point to a successful reintroduction, it’s not something I’d ever see doing. But hey these eastern states need to start somewhere and this pasture looking place is better than nowhere.g
Good grief :/
.. who needs a range finder at 150 yds?
& that "guide" needed to shut up.
I couldn't even finish watching.
Oh, yes, I'm an avid, life-long hunter.
Great "hunt".With a bit of luck u could have pushed them into a butcher shop to make your life a little easier. What a grind of a "hunt". How did u guys survived all that hard work? Unbeliavable.
domestic elk....not much of a HUNT
Skyline shot in rolling hill country….🤔
Good shooting mike!! AWSOME Bull congrats.
letthe damn hunter put his hands on the animal first, duh.
Safe background
That’s funny how they was slamming the doors to go hunting lol
Also… he killed that bull on the first shot, this so called guide needs a guide for him as well.
Why's there no cows around and just all bulls and not even spooked when your looking at em ? Is it high fenced or something?? Congratulations on a big bull
OF COURSE!!!!! Shooting a cow in a field NOT HUNTING!!!!!
Hey there Chad Rusher, thanks for watching. These are all free range animals. This is after the rut and the majority of the bulls bachelor back up. But the cows already walked over the hill before and during grey light. Thanks for the questions. BE SAFE AND HUNT HARD.
Yeah, it's weird. Drive down a paved road, a few ft from the car? All of them seem tame, give em an apple at least.
Is this a joke video? It's shooting domestic livestock. This is why hunting gets a bad rap from so many people.
This isnt real hunting. 😅
awesome hunt!!
Looks like killing elk on a golf course. Haha. Also hand fed elk, noticed how they didn’t run off or act alert compared to real elk.
WOW ! That's my Dream Hunt. I hope I draw a Bull Tag one day, before I can't pull my bow back anymore.😂 I'll definitely be calling on Elk County Outfitters, to show me the way. Congratulations Mike, Awesome Bull Elk !
When you have to range a house. You're. Not. Hunting.
No game farm this bull roamed over 12 county's in northern Pa
GAME FARM
Pennsylvania "wilds"......... huh???????
Good stuff!
Absolutelly ridiculous
What a joke
East coast elk hunters …lmao
Comon guys course it ain't Western elk hunting you know an I know , but you don't have to be an ass about it. Nice Bull anywhere an the hunter got picked in a lottery Lucky pick.
😂
Be careful! Being hot on his tail can get someone hurt. Hunt? Good one. Jeeesh. Kinda embarrassing. Poor elk has been living amongst human forever. Don’t hit the golfers. Good thing you filmed this. Gonna make an epic story.
Canned hunt is a canned hunt but the guide is horrible!!!!
Also Elk are not native to that state..planted elk
What a joke🤣🤣😂😂🤣
The guide ruined the hunt completely, next time stfu an let the hunter have his moment clearly paying you enough for that!😊
Did y'all forget to bring the buck of corn and take him in to 5 feet 😂😂.... how big is the pen, 10 acres in guessing. 4 days to find him..... pathetic
I would not film this and call it elk hunting.
Makes me literally sick.
Why is the hunter driving thats bullshit
This is not hunting…
Not one cow in sight and the bulls just stand there as you are walking up to them , not much of a hunt 🤔🤦🏻♂️
This is not a real elk hunt. This is hunting cattle in a pasture. Come out west and see how it is really done. Not with tame elk in yards.
Who the hell shoots over the crest of a hill like that? Terrible ethics and goes against every bit of common sense. It's this disgusting behavior that is loosing me my hunting rights along with my second amendment rights. This entire video sums up why hunters get a bad reputation…Not to mention the guide could not have been more of an asshole…
Transplant Elk. Worst guiding that I have ever seen. But congrats Mike. Oh and Mike done let a guide touch your kill before you do.
That's called slaughtering your bought elk..Definitely not elk hunting..Pretty sad this crap is allowed..
This IS NOT Elk hunting!!!! What an embarrassment!
Tame elk what a shame
Good shooting mike!! AWSOME Bull congrats.
