    In late 2014 Brett Ross took the hunting community by storm, but he is not a professional or successful trophy hunter. He is a hunter who harvested one of the largest deer ever taken. As far as we know, Ross is one of the few meat hunters to ever become famous, and Colorado's deer is what got him there.
    Colorado’s Deer tells the story behind the giant buck and the unlikely hunter who shot him. The film follows Brett Ross, a meat hunter from Colorado who went out on a hunt for cow elk with a mule deer tag in his pocket and came back as a local hero with a story he will tell for the rest of his life.

    Couldn't ask for a better way to have it play out. Humble hunter (veteran no less) on the family's stompin' grounds enjoying time well spent together doing something they love. Picture perfect if you ask me! Brett, you must've been doing something right! :D Perhaps God was repaying you for your service to country. I thank you for that.

    What makes this one of the better stories I've heard is that this monster goes to a humble guy, group, and family, who all love God. This one felt really authentic. Great job!

    Really nice to see a super buck that was taken by an average joe in real fare chase conditions.
    I get so tired of all these other videos where there is way more bragging about some rich guy that paid big money to be led by the hand to a deer that was raised under controlled conditions and camped over for days until opening day when the hunter is literally led by the hand and pointed to the buck that has never been hunted before.

    If anything have a replica made and sell it to the guy. I'd say you made the right choice keeping the deer. Congrats!

    Loved this story!! Genuine down to earth hunter that shot a worldclass animal and was so modest about it! Much respect from Australia

  • @dennisdonovan3153

    What a magnificent mule deer harvested by a humble man. Great that you've hunting that area for generations and the stars aligned. Much more enjoyable than the stories of the wealthy hunters who are guided in, deer having been watched for years by multiple guides, whereas these so called "hunters", IMO, are merely trigger people.

    I actually got to meet Levi and Brett at a friends wedding a couple years ago and these guys are genuine dudes. Brett was so burned out of this story by that time, we ended up talking about all the small deer and other hunting experiences we've had through our lives over whiskey and just BS'd. Definitely fun guys to talk to

    I'm not a trophy hunter but I am picky when it comes to shooting bucks...I dont shoot any mule deer smaller than a mature 3x3 just becuz I like to see them grow and mature ....some day i hope to get lucky and come across a buck of my life time...

  • @muffintop420
    @muffintop420 Před 6 lety +2

    I remember reading this story in the paper here in Colorado. Amazing buck! But I can't believe he skull caped it, no shoulder mount?? That would have been a beautiful mount.

    • @GOHUNT
      @GOHUNT  Před 6 lety

      Such an amazing story for sure. He did end up getting a shoulder mount done. He had it mounted on an old whiskey type barrel if we remember right.

    • @muffintop420
      @muffintop420 Před 6 lety

      Know where I could see a pic? Sounds like a great mount.

    • @Oregon-airguns
      @Oregon-airguns Před 4 lety

      Joe Monko because everyone said 300. They weren’t bummed at all!!! Everyone just said 300 soo much that it was almost expected. Regardless, they still acknowledged that it was a once in a life time buck and that it was beyond giant.

  • @felipen3841
