HUGE Bull On PUBLIC LAND | Idaho Elk (EP. 2)

- čas přidán 19. 01. 2021
- In episode 2 of this late season Idaho elk hunt, Michael Parente is still on the search for a mature bull elk. The last couple days he and Marcus Hockett has explored the vast unit, covering country and glassing but still hadn't laid eyes on a single elk.
They wake up early and decide to head back to the only spot where they have seen elk sign. The migration of elk in this unit is very weather dependent, and the season has been mild meaning a majority of the elk haven't been pushed down into the winter range yet. Upon arriving, it starts snowing which will allow them to look for tracks. On the way in, Michael cuts very fresh elk sign which makes him confident there is an elk in the direct area.
As Michael crests over the ridge he spots 3 bulls bedded down in the bottom of this steep rocky canyon. Without any idea of his presence, Michael is able to take his time and get set up prone for a shot. He has all the time in the world, if he can stay calm and make a good shot, he'll be headed back to Bozeman with hundreds of pounds of fresh elk meat.

Thanks for watching. Anyone else already planning hunts for this fall?
Planning for next year's hunt starts when this year's season ends. Every day is leg day. 😉👌 Thank you for sharing your adventures and knowledge with us!! 😁🤙🏹🦌
Backcountry OTC Bighorn sheep, Mule deer and a moose hunt early season next year, hopefully fit a OTC mountian goat hunt in right after
Yeah. Just trying not to have more tags then I can hunt. Like last year...
1st time archery elk hunt. I'm excited to say the least!
This will be my daughters first year where she can apply for a hunt and my sons second season.
"the furthest away from any road in the unit..."
That is a little jewel of knowledge for the fellows just starting out with elk hunting. Nice work M&M.
That is what we promote in all our rifle hunts - sanctuaries are where you find late season bulls. The guys proved that once again.
@@Fresh_Tracks Miss seeing you out there Randy. Thanks for all the education
Yeah.. I was going to say.. That's exactly where the Elk are.. Clear out in BFE..
Great bull. Great country. We’ve been fortunate to kill nice bulls at the top of those canyons, lol. Still a lot of work, but so worth it! Congrats on a great hunt.
Marcus' camera work is the best. Absolutely top notch!! Great bull and way to work it out guys!!!!
To paraphrase my pilot dad --- "There are old hunters and there are bold hunters, but few old bold hunters." You two continue to inspire (and amuse) me! Hope this is a premonition of many cool hunts ahead for Randy and you guys in 2021 ...
You weren't all that far from a road when you took the shot. I'm from Idaho.
You will never forget this hunt. And it will probably be your favorite. Struggle makes life worth living.
M&M are growing on me....the honesty sells itself
Appreciate you guys showing the chaos of the shot setup and the grind of packing out the meat. 2 very profound moments in the hunting experience. Congrats guys
Condolences to Marcus and his family. Awesome job on getting Big Hank. Thank you for letting us tag along.
I was so incredibly happy for Micheal. Not only did he work hard he was humble. Marcus the stunning scenery shots the evening out of the hells canyon with the bull in Michael’s back are stunning.
I am sincerely sorry for Marcus’s loss but I’m sure this hunt gave him some happiness when going through a rough time.
When I lost a great friend I, like marcus, turned to the outdoors for healing. For some of us, it's the best way.
I'd rather spend 3 days getting one out, than 3 weeks looking for one...
Amen!
Marcus...you know Beau Baty wouldn’t say “you won’t remember this next year” he’d be saying ”get your self some llamas you fools”
That would be his second sentence 🤣
This series was probably one of the best, most encapsulating, "beginning-to-end" hunts ever produced. It didn't take hours of viewing to understand the persistence, the friendship, the outdoors, the reward, the suck, and, again, the reward.
Well done!
True Sportsmanship. The effort put in was well worth the reward. Congratulations.
Much appreciated!
Kudos to Marcus for being an awesome second man, don't come any better than that fella! Attitude and grit both a rare find.
Very awesome, what a pack out, love that country, nothing like notching an Idaho tag. Good job 👍
Great Bull Michael!!! You and Marcus make a good team. Nice of Randy to gift Marcus a wall tent.
I love the added music when he was positioning himself to take the shot
I was thinking the opposite. I thought one of the hallmarks of the Meateater and Newberg hunting vids was the absence of dramatic music - just keeping it simple and real. That's how I prefer it, but to each his own.
@@Atlas531 Same here.
Thank you, I can not remember see to people have so much fun on a hunt that was not easy. It is what hunting is all about, making good times from the hard times. Congratulations Michael on a great bull and the hard yards you put in. Marcus , to do that after the passing of a grandfarther you are a Legend. I would not of been able to hold it all together. Hats off to you both from Queensland Australia.
"Literally the farthest possible spot from the road in the unit." Sounds about right for elk.
This is probably one of my top favorite elk hunting videos. After he shot, I was laughing so hard, with what he was saying. All around a funny awesome video.
Awesome hunt guys and thank you for taking us along! Sorry for your loss Marcus.
One of my favorite hunts you guys have shown! So jacked for you guys!
BEAST MODE fellas! Congrats Michael! Marcus killed it with the camera work. Such an epic spot! Love it! ✊🏼
Thanks Brian!
I don’t know who had more blood on themselves that bull or Michael! Congrats on a stud bull man!
What a great memory those tough pack outs are! You won’t forget it. I hunted late season and the wind and snow ,slick rocks are what makes real memories. You said it yourself that’s physically the toughest thing you ever done.
Loved everything about this except for 1 thing...sorry for your loss, Marcus. Thanks for sharing.
Good on you guy’s for making a plan and seeing it through. This will be a hunt you will always remember....
That bull is an absolute tank! Congrats! It just takes 1. Thanks for a great year guys. I really appreciate everything you did and all the content. 👍
Thanks for all the support Eric.
Idaho is full of hell holes but that is usually where you find them.Perfect elk hunting weather .Have never taken an elk when it's all balmy and pleasant..... Good job M&M and sorry about your family's loss Marcus.
Marcus my condolences. Congratulations to Michael. I enjoy watching both of you because of your attitude, aswell as Beau's. I know he wasn't physically at this hunt but his attitude has rub off on you guys. Congratulations again to the both of you. Well done.
Great bull, Michael! What a way to cap off the year. Thanks to all of you!
Awesome job guys. Great hunt. Thanks for sharing with us. So sorry for your loss Marcus.
Congrats Michael, Great Idaho bull. Condolences to you and your family Marcus. You are a big part of why I watch this channel, your sportsmanship, sense of humor and abilities with a camera are Outstanding! All around Best wildlife conservation channel out there, keep it up!
Congratulations Michael and Marcus, y'all persevered and worked your butts off for that one.
So sorry for your loss Marcus and congratulations to you Michael on an awesome bull.
One of my favourite episodes lately! The triumph of victory and the pack out. Great show 🤠
Glad to heat that.
Hell yeah!! I woke up this morning and thought I hope Michael gets his bull....
Blood Bath Parente strikes again.
Looked like he rolled in the gut pile. Have always heard about that but he may have actually done it! Haha
Their wrasslin' names are Michael "The Hammer" Parente and Marcus "Scrap Iron" Hockett. Applicable in this video.
Great hunt and phenomenal filming, Marcus! Thanks for bringing this to us.
Great job guys. Sorry to hear about your grandpas passing RIP. He was with you in spirit.
I really enjoyed these two episodes. Great hunt and great effort. On a side note I'd like to say that Marcus has come a long way on his photography. I think Randy is fortunate to have you two on his team. Great job guys.👍
Well said!
Great hunt ( as always)!!! I admire the authenticity of this crew. Easy to connect with real people. Nice to see ethical hunts with respect given to the land and creatures that roam it.
Archery elk hunt planned for the end of September in BC, Canada . I cannot wait!!
Go get 'em.
As soon as you touched off that second round I said out loud “now for the suck”. I’m guessing you boys were a little sore for a few days. I have felt your pain!
That hunt ended pretty well. Just show that sticking with it pays off sometimes. Congratulations on your bull.
Sorry for your loss, Marcus. What a fantastic video. M&M now means a lot more than candy.
Awesome hunt guys! Glad you finally connected!
The tough hunts make for awesome memories and great stories! ....the easy one's are easier to forget..
I'm thinking your gonna remember this one for a long time..
You got that right!
Congratulations! I was hurting just watching you. A true trophy hard earned and well deserved.
Truly sorry to hear of your grandfather Marcus. Grandpas are special. You and your family will be in my prayers.
Thank you so much!
In one word "magnificent" well done on filming, packing out, hunting and pisitivity.
Thank you so much for your content on this hunt and all of the others this season and past. What a hump to get that bull out. Way to pull a needle out of a haystack. I hope that you have no regrets on not getting the cape. The work truely started when you pulled the trigger.....the second time. Been there done that, the second trigger pull that is!!!!
It's good to see that your perseverance has paid off.
Imagine the tough SOB that had to put that fence in...
Tough guy, for sure.
@@Fresh_Tracks good hunt. This is a goal of mine to go elk hunting, what rifle are you shooting?
lol I spent a lot of my teen years running fence just like that in hells canyon. Brownlee area.
Before the shot I was saying I hope he isn't shooting the one that was standing up because the one laying down on the bottom right looked bigger. You definitely shot the right one. Good job boys
another epic episode and series I just wish I could have seen Randy’s reaction to this great bull!!!
Condolences Marcus. Losing a pillar in your life is never an easy thing to endure. Congrats Michael on a fine bull, hard earned.
Thank you.
Yunno, that was totally awesome! You guys see no freakin' elk for days, the weather sucks. You walk out on to the dang moon and find 3 tracks and you track them down and kill the biggest bull, who just happens to be a 7x6 donk, in his bed!! Really, really impressive! And who even knew that Jack Black liked to hunt? What a surprise!! Mega Congratulations!!
Great job Michael and Marcus! You guys are the real deal.
Very nice bull. Again, another video showing the rewards of the hard work you guys put in to your hunts. Fantastic job guys!
Amazing bull. Well worth the hard work getting him out. By the time you are those tenderloins you'd have forgotten the drag up that canyon.
Keep the videos coming.
My deepest condolences to Markus and his family of the passing of his grandfather... He's was watching over you guys, that's for sure...
One day I will get over from the UK and hunt public lands for elk... 🤞
Michael, you are getting it done this year! Congrats!
15:55 Badass scene! Congrats on a great Idaho bull! Great editing too, as always.
That was awesome. Congrats Michael. Way to stick with it.
My condolences to you Markus.
You guys probably have one if the greatest jobs. I envy your work. Keep it up.
Congratulations Michael!! Great bull. Your taxidermist is going to love you.
Sorry for your loss Marcus.
Great hunt and bull - congrats! And you have to love that nugget of wisdom from Beau - how true!
Absolutely!
Awesome job guys! What a cool bull in a cool location. The hardest pack outs are always the best stories. And the ones you'll always remember. Thanks for taking us along 👍
We agree!
Randy Newberg, Hunter is the best outdoor show to be found. Marcus is extremely talented "camera man" and video production is the best. Your entire crew is the best. This episode with Michael Parente was absolutely awesome. Determination and grit on another successful hunt. Thank you very much.
Thanks for watching and all the support.
This was very nice, thank you! I am late to the game, but am so motivated to do this. The first time I tried elk was in 1989 and I still remember the taste and smells of that wonderful steak. Thankfully someone was willing to share with me and got me hooked. The time between was lost for various reasons unfortunately. Your video keeps me moving forward to getting my first tag/outfitter and getting out there.
Go for it!
Good episode guys, great bull Michael!
Congratulations on surviving a brutal pack out.
What a fantastic hunt. Thank you for sharing it with us. I truly enjoyed and appreciated all your hard work. You were rewarded for your determination and it looked like it tasted so good. I could almost smell it. Thanks again.
Awesome job guys. Michael, great shot at a difficult angle, and killer footage, (as always) Marcus.
Loved it! Thanks for bringing us along!
Nice work guys! Sticking with it pays off as that was my hunt last fall as well! Pain is temporary but the accomplishment of what you did lasts forever:) Marcus condolences to you and your family. My grandfather passed as my dad, his son, were elk hunting. We said some prayers to him to help us find the elk we simultaneously had hit that day. We found it the next morning, it is Grandpa’s Bull:)
Thank you!
Michael is seriously so funny and entertaining. I love how candid he is. Can’t wait to see more from him and Marcus
Epic hunt and a great bull guys. Congrats on the bull and condolences for your Grandad Marcus.
Great bull. You guys should be thankful to get to do what you do. I've never got to elk hunt in my 62 yrs, a dream I'll never get to experience. Good video!
Great job fellas....hard work and perseverance pay off! Congrats on a heck of a bull Micheal. That looked like a hell pack out from that canyon...just remember pain is temporary and memories last forever. Public land DIY is the ONLY way to go!!!
The M&M SHOW that was beast ! Love it thanks for sharing. 🇺🇲 merica
I love it!! Thanks for sharing your hunt!
Nice work, Its hard finding the needle in the haystack let alone getting a good shot opportunity out there. In my experience they usually bed higher up where they can see. They must have been pretty confident in that spot. I was able to fill a tag following fresh tracks. Its an awesome way to do it if the conditions are right. If they aren't pressured they don't go to far, but if they get pushed don't bother they will go farther than you can walk in a day.
What a great hunt and an awesome bull. You two seem to work so well together and really enjoy hunting together. Hope to see more of you two hunting together in the future. Congrats and way to stick it out.
6x7 wow. One of the biggest I've seen. Good job. That hill looks brutal. The whole time you were scouting in there I was thinking man, whatever you shoot down in there has to come back up out and that's gonna suck!
Awesome hunt. Those hard packs make for way better story’s and memory’s.
Congratulations couldn’t ask for a better hunt on CZcams!!! To Marcus and his family our deepest and sincere condolences for there loss!! God bless
Thank you. And thank you!
How Classic! You guys actually GOT Big Hank!! Righteous Video!
Thanks. Glad you liked it.
Congrats Michael! All those meals will be a reminder of the hard work. Great video too Marcus!
Most definitely!
Wow, great hunt! Marcus is a great friend.
The footage of the last climb up the shoot with the antlers is awesome! Good job showing the ruggedness and steepness. Hope Michael the camera guy is happy with Marcus camera work! Way to persevere guys. Good job.
Even if you harvest nothing. The beautiful incredible view of the landscape is too gorgeous
That was a great episode; one of my favorite Fresh Tracks episodes in a long time. To say that you earned that bull the hard way in an understatement. Most hunters would have given up after two days of seeing almost nothing. The fact that you stuck it out is what got you that elk. While I watched the video, my first thought was that the pack out is going to really suck, and it did. I can't say that I have any hunting buddies that would help me get that critter out of there if I would have shot it down in that hell hole, so it is an understatement how much Marcus helped out.
That is when you sort out who are your "real friends." Good luck in 2021.
Excellent job guys; the hunt, filming, story, all of it
This was a great video. Way to hang in there and keep pushing until you found what you came for! The M&M hunt team is always fun to watch.
Thank you!
I have spent my entire 42 year life in that unit. I know it like the back of my hand good job guys. thats the way to hunt that unit, get out on foot and get away from the roads.
The Diamond A does hold some elk. Tough to find them though.
We have unit 46-1 right now and have only seen 1 herd and it was running hard. We are stumped and have driven hundreds of miles and sometimes hours and only a few miles. We have walked ridges, canyons and more ridges in unit 47 and haven't seen a single elk. We did see a helicopter running some deer herds and land on a huge private area so that was discouraging and kind of put a damper on the "coveted" hunt😔 we were told a certain outfitter owns that massive area and produces many successful private hunts we can now see why! Thanks for showing how the work paid off, God bless and I will continue to watch when we get done hopefully with a filled tag and meat in the freezer.
Congrats on a successful hunt! Like I tell my hunting buddy...once the elk are down the fun hard grueling work begins! Embrace the suck and enjoy every minute of it.
Lol "this is going to suck so bad" after he smokes a stud.....classic
That was awesome congrats Michael and sorry for your loss Marcus.
thank you guys for putting awesome videos! Great hunt guys...Congrats to double M's!
Congratulations ! Outstanding Bill ! Good luck for everyone putting in for Elk this year,here in Arizona we are getting ready to put in for our draw.
Good luck!
Heavenly Hunt right there. Wish we had Elks where I hunt. Congrats 🎉
Awesome hunt.
It makes me feel good to know it takes you guys a little bit to find your
Animals too.
Congratulations
You guys did a great job I personally have done this hunt and its stuff not having the weather to push the heards down from the high country that's a great bull.
My goodness what a hunt. And OMG beautiful country!!
