I have to laugh at all the haters Josh gets because he is successful. Most people are too lazy to even research how to build a longbow, let alone do it, then build it a second time, work hard enough to fund the trip, then become proficient with the bow and to top it off, kill a grizzly with it. Keep sitting on the couch and hating people, more for everyone else who is willing to put work in to succeed. Great video and story.

Seeing that makes me incredibly humble and, at the same time, sad. Such a beautiful animal, strong, free. I can understand the desire to hunt; I believe it's deeply rooted within us. Perhaps I've been too softened, too shaped by city life, but I would prefer to see this bear alive. Knowing I could kill it but choosing not to take that final step out of respect would likely be my own path. But don't get me wrong, I don't condemn or judge you or hunting... May God protect you.

Id say it was. Hunting was necessity to keep us (human) alive in the old times, nowadays hunting for fun is stupid. Invasive species yes, anything else no. IF there is bear that is way too close a city, relocate it or kill, otherwise let it live if no harm is done. If you think about it, we will soon have flying cars and our phones will be like a neuralink on our head and we can write and call just with thinking lol. For many decades hunting has just been a mindless sport of people that enjoy killing, but remember only god can judge us.

bears are apex predators meaning they have no natural hunters and given the size of the alaskan forest they can shoot up of high numbers killing and feeding on whatever small wildlife there is so the rangers and other hunters keep the numbers in check while maintaining balance in the forest. Also I read somewhere you have to pay some subsequent amount of fee for hunting. The money is then used for further conservation of the forest so its a win win situation

Why are even watching it then? Move on just because you don't like it. Doesn't mean that everyone else thinks that way. If your goin to be negative about a man collecting meat for his family a way more humane and ethical way. If you have a problem with that. Then there is no reason for you to be here. And it's called a challenge. The amount of skill this stuff takes only comes from someone that truly care about animals and the forest woods and earth way more then you do. Without hunting and keeping the population under control they will go extinct. but your so closed minded and know little to nothing about hunting. And your so quick to voice your opinion just to get some kind of fame off the Internet to stroke your woke ego. Just get out of here I have nothing else to say to you.

Awesome Bear, Bow, Video and hunt. From one kid who grew up on a dirt road and hunts and makes my own bows , that my friend was great ! 😊
Living the dream brotha!! Awesome to see ur hard work pay off! Congrats Josh!! Thanks for taking us with you!
Man, props to you for sticking it out in the mosquitos! I would have absolutely lost my mind. Great video Josh!
You have nothing in your pants, attracting the bear with food …. Poor guy !
Judging by the shoulders on that grizz, you to must be related.
My dad has built several stick bows over the past few years. So we know how challenging it can be to a animal with one. I am paralyzed from the bellybutton down. But I've been lucky enough to take two deer with one and it is the most rewarding feeling I have ever had. So I know how you feel Mr. Bowmar . Congrats on a huge Grizzly Bear.
Amazing... just to be a "Shaking" part of the intense wait, patient amount of time, the knowledge, timing... & with your own made bow! At my age and physical condition: most likely not even a chance with a firearm? Most certainly not with a bow!!! Truly... Thank You, J
That’s awesome man. You hunted one of the most dangerous animals and even better you did it with a bow.
Thank you for capturing and sharing that experience. And props for staying sane throughout that mosquito onslaught.
Humans kill animal it's called sport, animal kills human, it's called a monster.
perspective is everything :)
Difference is, humans eat the bear, most bears don’t eat the humans
To me, it’s interesting that you come from a family with a very wide history of archery and bow hunting
I love the videos but sometimes your unintentionally funny 😂😂 makes it even the more better
I'm not a hunter, but I appreciate the time, effort and skill that goes into this. Good job!
What I love most about Josh is his relationship with his wife…to have a mate to hunt with would be my dream,being a good husband and father is more important than personal gains…bless you Josh and his family!
that fact that he doesn’t even react to all the bugs flying all over him amazes me😭
This was awesome man! Loved every minute of it!
I don’t get it ? That’s a beautiful creature. Why kill it ? Not hating just would like to understand
Why don't you go ask a grizzly in the wild if it. Thinks you're a beautiful creature that deserves to live in bliss cause I guarantee you'll find you're answer real fast
bears are apex predators meaning they have no natural hunters and given the size of the alaskan forest they can shoot up of high numbers killing and feeding on whatever small wildlife there is so the rangers and other hunters keep the numbers in check while maintaining balance in the forest. Also I read somewhere you have to pay some subsequent amount of fee for hunting. The money is then used for further conservation of the forest so its a win win situation
Ever since humans have hunted ,the grizzly has brought fear and excitement at the same time . Congratulations on a awesome hunt with a homemade longbow, unprecedented adventure.
Awesome video! Loved how we could see “Bear Fever” hitting ya shaking! If you could bottle that feeling up and sell it! Oh my!
I’m not a hunter never hunted in my life and I have to say that’s the coolest thing I’ve ever seen pure determination and focus. What a clean shot this is definitely the closest you can be to nature in our times and damnnn now I realize how damn big a grizzly is claws the size of a finger is crazzzzyyy
der arme bär
It’s the way of life
Man mad props to you and your family on a crazy successful hunt! Keep it going Mr Josh. Thank you for sharing
That kinetic energy. Must have been a slow, painful death.
"Leave the chickens for everyone else." Right as I'm fixing some BBQ chicken thighs for dinner! Lmao
Is building a bow like that something anyone can do? Or was it only possible because you know him?
No, there are very special tools and fixtures you need to build one like he's using.
Why this bear had to die?
Population management and food
Food? for real? its looks more like this is just for his enjoyment dont u think?@@Emadrat58
@@thisismeeful mind your business
Cause there hungry and needed food..
@@jeremyhennick1001 sure...
Leave the chickens for everyone else made me chuckle, well done bro
Hi Josh , can i get some information on the guide you used and what part ok AK ?
I m not a hunter and I know this is really common thing to do, but put a shh ton of food a few meters from you and just wait the bear to come and eat it's not hunting, it's like fishing in a tiny pond
Freakin incredible adventure!!!! Look at those claws!!! Hollllyyy smokes, absolutely massive. Imagine if that thing got ahold of you, whew!!! What a hunt, congratulations big dog!! Well done brother🤘🤘
So happy to see round two thank you for the trad bow experience
he makes the bear look small lmaoo
Congrats Josh!! You inspire all serious hunters to dream and chase after their dreams!! Thanks for sharing it with us!
Congrats Josh....How exciting to be able to pull that hunt off....using your home made bow and have the family there....Is and was icing on the cake. 🎂 What a wonderful lasting memory!
@bowmarbowhunting So the bolt or arrow or flight or whatever it’s called in this case, it goes right through the bear and exits out the other side? And does it always or does it sometimes get stuck in the bear?
Oh my gosh, YESSSS! My husband and I have been waiting to see this! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
killing for fun. what a creep tho.
grow up
You know he eats it at the end of the video right?
The Human Ego is digusting!

@@fernandorochamedeiros5684 its you who will cry one day like a baby. Everything comes back to you...
@@lupoed karma don't exist, nothing will come back to me.
Cool!! I was chuckling a little bit when you got the shakes because I've experienced those in my career, that was a pretty cool encounter all around. People don't give eating the heart enough credit, one of the tastiest pieces of meat on an animal.
Josh we need a trophy room tour
How you can be so happy to kill such a innocent beautiful animal? Sad world man…
Eminim ki sende masum hayvanları yiyorsun
And often he said its a monster. Man, you need hide to kill this animal... Its such a beautiful creature.
Because it's a challenging, dangerous thing to hunt and is necessary for wildlife conservation? This isn't a teddy bear, it's a real bear that will really kill you if it chooses to.
Dont knock it till you've tried it
It’s so amazing that you can go all over America to hunt all types of animals and put in so much work! Because of your channel I want to start bow hunting. Keep up the hard work👍
Why you should kill animals like a grizzly bear? Get a chicken or something but not a bear come on
why not a grizzly. hes putting all the skin fur and meat to perfect use@@Jakub.763
Does this hurt the bear?
Man that home made bow is professionally made. That's awesome!!!
Awesome hunt with an amazing bear. Well edited and loved the family history. Congrats on a successful freezer filler trophy
Awesome hunt Josh. Beautiful family, beautiful bow, beautiful bear in beautiful back country. So happy for you brother. Honestly, I feel indifferent to compound bows, but seeing you build your own recurve bows and challenge yourself has shown a lot about your character. Bask in thy victory my friend!
He didn’t build it himself. He “helped” one of the best bow builders in the country, slightly
I never knew they made these sounds. Never thought they would be so kiddish. Could they smell humans? Incredible hunt.
Amazing footage on this and all your productions Josh! Very inspiring and enjoyable! Thanks for sharing!
Okay… I respect your ability to building and shooting. But what is the exact reason, why this beautiful animal have to die?! Because you have your happy 5min and your daughter has seen her first bear? Just like wtf? I have two little children two, and won’t take a bears life for that…
So many great things about this one ! Josh I was really surprised and impressed about the whole family history of Bow hunters ! Down a dirt road sounds like a great great country song! The huge let down of a longtime dream, when the bow broke twice! The fact you made another! The taking your whole family with you! The great shot ! The quality of filming and editing! You are the man ! Congratulations on a true quest for a lifetime dream and accomplishment! In hunting Glenn
Great hunt josh. Question for anyone that would know. Why do you have the peep rubber thing on the longbow? Does it serve as a draw anchor?
That's a clicker. It let's him know when he is at his full draw.
What is the best bow and arrows to use for bow hunting
What an awesome hunt! I had to contain my excitement when the shot finally happened. Great film! And doing it all with a longbow makes it even more special. Congratulations Josh, and thank you for sharing this experience!
And also have the family with you on the trip! That's the dream!
No doubt an amazing achievement. Congratulations on a great grizz with your homemade bow!🙌
Great to see the history of a company who’s products I’ve used faithfully for 12 plus years
Congratulations Josh awesome bear! Can't wait for your new broadhead to be released!!
why would you kill such a big animal and for what, its fucked up and i dont respect it
And ? Who are you ? Who cares about your opinion?
Who are you, this guy does not want or need your respect
why shoot a bear if you dont eat it ? can anyone explain please ?
Did you watch the full video?
Because it’s cool
Eating bear meat can give you parasites
Clearly hasn’t watched till the end 🤦🏻♂️
I'm a hunter by myself but let's be fair, he only ate the heart what's a pretty low ratio compared to the whole grizzly. Not saying I don't understand but this might make non-hunters minds in regards to "killing w/o eating it".
i bought my first traditional bow yesterday because i wanted to get a jump on practicing for the traditional classic 3d shoot coming up in a few weeks but im also in the middle of doing the research so i can start my own bow build from scratch. im hoping ill have a stave i can work on soon and by the end of summer hopefully have my self built bow ready for shooting. but in the mean time, ill be shooting this purchased traditional and theres nothing wrong with that! cant wait to get my first traditional harvest and finally be a part of that cycle of life and one step closer to being prepared for my move onto the mountain!
So much respect for you for waiting for the perfect shot
i love watching your hunts and its nice to see that even after so many big bucks and bears that even a professional hunter like you still gets buck fever
"Leave the chickens foe everyone else." That's the correct place for that quote.
Crazy you were up around my hometown to build your bow and the boat you took in alaska was made just down the river from where we live! Great video man
Love it, Josh. What a great experience. Love the family at camp - what an awesome time!!! You deserved another shot! Great job!!!
Josh I had to subscribe, really like what I saw here, with the ethics, morals and hard work and practice and a well placed arrow and perfect arrow flight, the more you can bring this code to the hunting world the more you can make it a better art, congratulations on a once in a lifetime hunt and a magnificent boar of the woods, glad another one of your dreams had been fulfilled. God bless you and your buetiful family 👪 🙏
What a bad ass long bow!! Incredible it went straight through. Thats a thick boy with some dense muscles. What a great shot 👏
leave the chickens for everyone else 😂😂😂
Awsome Josh another reason why your the F**kin man
I dont understand what you get from hunting such an animal other than pushing your own ego. Killing just for fun is strange to me. Just enjoy watching these beautiful animals strive through the forest
Why are even watching it then? Move on just because you don't like it. Doesn't mean that everyone else thinks that way. If your goin to be negative about a man collecting meat for his family a way more humane and ethical way. If you have a problem with that. Then there is no reason for you to be here. And it's called a challenge. The amount of skill this stuff takes only comes from someone that truly care about animals and the forest woods and earth way more then you do. Without hunting and keeping the population under control they will go extinct. but your so closed minded and know little to nothing about hunting. And your so quick to voice your opinion just to get some kind of fame off the Internet to stroke your woke ego. Just get out of here I have nothing else to say to you.
@@brando104 Bro what are you talking about. I‘m not against hunting, but dont tell me hes doing it for the meat or the population. Hes doing it for the fun and that is what I‘m criticizing. I just dont see any other reason to hunt this bear. And if you would really think about it instead of assuming things about me, maybe you come to the same conclusion. Furthermore I am just as you allowed to express my opinion on this video. Criticising something shouldnt be badmouthed, we can always discuss things but it seems you are not interested in it.
This video is so epic!! I just found your channel and it’s amazing!!! Funny thing is I’ve recently been debating getting into archery and bow hunting and after watching this I’m sold. Thank you for everything you do and keep making amazing content!!!!!
Okay the "very few if any" part has me laughing bc before guns what did they use to hunt bears with? Bows and Arrows.
What an amazing experience to watch this. Josh, congrats my man, you always knew you could do it and you did! I'm inspired indeed.
So you let the bear bleed to death and die a horrible and painful death? Wow nice great job thats so disrespectful … poor animal … how is it possible for a human being to enjoy something like that? Just Sick
cry
He wins his haters with hard work and hart indeed 😂
That adrenaline had the tree shaken lol
Sorry No! When you fight a bear in front of you with a knife ok, if you need this. That would be nearly fair. But it's so coward and low to hunt a bear with distance weapons. To kill such a wonderful predator with coward weapons only for amusement is the attitude of a little girl of a child. If your self confidence needs this ... I cannot understand it. I would rather prefer to watch such beautiful bear alive instead of you.
wow you think humans and bear are equal ? 😂😂😂
@@hmm988 I know no bear who hunts coward with a weapon humans.
@@juwedevelop boo hoo

@@fernandorochamedeiros5684 It is complete senceless, you better should learn to use your little brain
seeing such a dump stupid Thing makes me realy sad. Im so glad, that I life in a country, where its forbidden to hunt with the Bow. And wow, what a great Archer u are, shooting such a big, fed animal from like 18 meters and didnt even hit the killspot realy good. How far did that bear run befor dying?
