Wildboy II - The Closing (2020)
The FINAL piece to a bowhunt series for a particular Red Stag in New Zealand.
If you haven't seen 'PART 1' I suggest you do so first for the best experience, here's the link • 8 YARD SHOT! Biggest D...
Four Years ago, a young public land Red Stag found its way onto Wildside Hunting Safaris North Island property. As time rolled on this young Stag evolved into an aggressive, formidable, mature opponent to the resident Deer herd. With his upcoming dominance and his wild genetics he needed to be taken care of.
Joe Fluerty set his sights high and decided to bowhunt this elusive animal in his own familiar territory. The training begins now but what is not known yet is this is about to become the pinnacle of Joe's hunting experiences.
This is The Closing, the Wildboy Story.
A JE Wilds film.

Joe this video is a completely different level mate. Music, transitions, filming, speed, is all on point. Congratulations 👏
Thanks bro glad you enjoyed it, bit of an art piece in my eyes, not your typical hunting doco/TV show style. I just let myself go with the flow on it
Definitely an art 👍
Total agree wow what a vid men . So intense🙌💪 i will say hi from the caribbean of P.R love all your films.
Just fantastic. The emotions the music made you feel was unreal. Best hunting video I've seen. Well done guys.
Glad you felt what I was hoping to evoke, I tried to create something a bit more in depth than your normal hunting vid
Joe E....what an amazing film!!! Joe F....what an amazing journey you had to finally get that stag!!! So good to see all of you again even if it was just on video. Keep up the amazing work.
Thanks man glad you enjoyed it! Guess where Joe F is right now.. helicoptered into the mountains Tahr hunting!
What a banga , I picked up the bow after 15yrs and managed to get my first fallow stag, the first video was the inspiration for that hunt, going for a big Samba after watching this. Well done gotta watch it again now...
That's some serious dedication and unbelievably BEAUTIFUL WILDERNESS!!! You guys are making me ask myself why I'm still in Kansas City!!! I should be living somewhere as beautiful as NZ, for sure! It seems like no one here cares about stuff like this, in my mind, this is what life is about. This is the stuff that separates us from the animals we live alongside of. Thanks for the effort! Was that a through shot??!? That's what it seemed like from looking at the arrow..... one word.... INTENSE!!!!!
Thanks Jeffro ! Your comments are always good to read! I thought Kansas is a good well known Whitetail Deer hunting area?
@@j.e.wilds-hunting it is most definitely that, our fam has 80 acres 60 miles out of the city, that's where I caught the monster 7 pound Largemouth on my channel! You can spin a full circle and not see a single indication of human existence! That's my favorite thing about the place, besides the pesky plane traffic it's just pure silence. One night after 4 or 5 hrs of looking through my telescope I decided to look PAST what I was focused on, what I saw was 1st seen in 1965, they guess around 375,000 years after the big bang, before the first stars were even formed! I literally saw 12 BILLION years into the past! I honestly feel sorry for anyone who never stops to appreciate the unbelievable beauty of the natural world. You guys do an amazing job at bringing it to the people who never see it themselves, thank you for that, we need more people doing it!
Mate, I have no words for how good this was. Just... more than amazing. Thank you.
Quite simply a masterpiece of Photography - accurate depiction of the ups n downs of bowhunting , the tenacity and dogged never give up all come through strongly. Well done on so many levels.!!!
Thanks for the fantastic feedback! This style of film making is my biggest passion, so it's really great to hear that it is so appreciated! Thank you!
Awesome work mate, photography and edits are on another level 🤙🏻
Thanks for the comment I really appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed it
What an epic adventure to share. Beautiful animal and great whanau time. Well done. Thoroughly enjoyed it. 👌🏾
I reakon after seen all your vids, this one takes the cake by far, what some amazing footage on show and on point, well done, and most of all a well deserved stag, awesome, thanks for taking us on this hunt with you
Hey William, that means a lot. Thanks for the comment. Glad you enjoyed it. This is definitely my favourite type of videos to make, I love making cinematic videos! ❤
great production, incredible views. thanks for bringing us along.
Thanks Peter glad you enjoyed the Journey
Just an amazing video from start to the end. Exceptional editing, and an amazing story. Keep up with the great content mate. We all want more of this.
What an epic hunt! The video is one of the best I’ve seen. Give me close quarters Bush hunt with a bow or rifle any day over the long distance shots. Congratulations on your stag Joe and congratulations on the video Joe! Awesome!👍👍👍
What a beautiful hunt and so well produced. awesome respect to you as a bow hunter
Another absolute banger, keep it up, absolutely engaging, unreal
Thanks Mtchell glad you enjoyed the watch bro!
Incredible footage, awesome photography.
Thanks Craig, cheers for the comment man I appreciate it!
Amazing footage and bow hunting. Heard you on Australian Hunting Podcast sharing your story about this hunt, so I had to find it! And it didn't disappoint!
Well done KIWIS. Keep it up happy for you.
Absolutely stunning mate, what an epic adventure and rollercoaster of emotions!!
Haha yeah plenty of up and downs on this hunt, it is the story I told at the end of the AHP podcast if you listened to that?
Yeah I did mate, I’ve been following you for a while on Instagram but like a lot of great content it seems to disappear of your Instagram feed. Was talking to some mates about you on the weekend and then listened to the podcast but had to pause before the end and watch the film first lol!
@@leonschoots haha good on you man I hope the films didnt disappoint. How did you like the podcast? Any topics you want to hear on the next one?
@@j.e.wilds-hunting Definitely didn't disappoint mate! The films are great and I even applaud the simple fact of committing to filming them. I struggle getting motivated to do still images sometimes let alone video haha. I can't really think of anything you could do different mate, they are pretty spot on. The only thing that might be nice is to hear a little more about the gear, I know you aren't exactly a gear junky but for people outside NZ, it'd be nice to hear about what are actual essentials and what you can get away with etc.
@@leonschoots I have actually had a lot of requests about gear I use. I'm definitely not a gear junky but have got my kit fairly well dialed. It could be good to do a few gear lay downs so I can show people my thoughts on what is useful. But as always its definitely my opinion and not going to fit for everyone's style of hunting
That's an a epic film lads! Well done!
Excellent video Joe!!!!! Suspenseful..
Keep up the good work mate your content is light years ahead of others on here! Love your work brother, cant wait to see what else you have in store! Also well done to Hamish Blake on wildboy haha
What a great two part story, and for Jason to get Wild boy down simply awesome. Love the area you must be close to my home base. Excellent video and editing.
Hey thanks for the message! Glad you enjoyed it! Is your home base in NZ?
@@j.e.wilds-hunting, living in Wellington, but Taumarunui is home.
All around awesome video 📹 and hunt congratulations on your stag
👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 yes been waiting for it, you never disappoint mate, absolutely amazing.
Thanks man glad you liked it! New vid going up this week
Freaking awesome!!!! Great hunting from Hamish and incredible filming and editing from JE Wilds!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍 What a roller coaster of emotions you boys put me through! 😱😱😱
Your a babe
And you're a mega hottie, what of it??
Hahahaha 🤣, hey is that me in your profile pic?
Heck yea! 🤪
Great outcome. Four years! Well done.
Thanks man it was a good journey! A highly respected animal
Absolutely awesome footage guys both part 1and 2 the excitement of just watching had me going as if I was there on the hunt wicked stuff great achievement you guys deliver 100% every time cheers guys
Thanks for that Ethan! These types of videos are what we really love to make. The cinematography and emotion, bringing you along with us. Really great to hear this feedback! Thank you! ❤
Nice work both joes, beauty stag man
Thanks Shane! Cheers for the comment mate glad you enjoyed it
Well that had me on the edge of my seat lol. Great work guys and the video work is exceptional as always with your work. Shot wasn't perfect but no all are and that's hunting! Again fantastic job and a nice nz stag that deserved to be remembered
Thanks man glad you enjoyed it, what part of NZ are you from?
@@j.e.wilds-hunting originally Marlborough but I have been living in Switzerland for the past 18 years. I visit once a year for family, hunting and a catch up with mates (if corona let's me :-)). Usually get a few deer, pigs and help clean out a few wild goats while I'm there. Your vids remind me of home and how beautiful the countryside is. Keep it up! Can't wait to get back for a hunt next year!
What an amazing video and what a stag! Well done joe what a hunt
Amazing, loved every second of it. As always your edits are awesome and can't wait to see what adventure you share with us next. If you ever find yourself in new england (US) let me know. At some point you will have to come tangle with a Bluefin off the cape!
That would be a bucketlist mission right there!!! I may have to take you up on that. Oh and another film going up at the end if this week
@@j.e.wilds-hunting And if you are really feeling up for an adventure come in the winter and try ice fishing! Tons of fishing to be done in New England!
I hunt whit rifle , but every time I watch your videos , I learn more , and more.. Thank´s for sharing the excelente stalking and congrats for the video. From Portugal....
Absolutely incredible bro!
Thanks bro! Good to see your name pop up in the notifications! Glad you enjoyed it
@@j.e.wilds-hunting No worries Legend! Loving the awesome content
Amazing work Joe 👌
Cheers bro! Glad you liked it
That was so epic bro, another awesome video. Rip Wild boy haha
He will tell a story forever now, with the films and he also sits in Prime position on the wall
@@j.e.wilds-hunting I bet he does 🤙 absolutely epic. I look forward to more from you bro, best hunting film/editor in NZ.
WONDERFUL FILM , VERY PROFESSIONAL
Epic video mate, some pretty slick camera and editing skills there!!
Thanks bro glad you enjoyed it!
JE Wilds I just put up an epic hunt I was on a few months back and managed to get a good stag but so much harder trying to video and hunt at the same time eh. Your defiantly a few steps above me with videoing and editing but feel free to have a look. Beautiful country we live in!!
eautiful stag great shot ,congratulations ,and an awesome stock ,
Great hunt - well done on the stalk. Great red. What a spin-out, that shot looked like a miss for sure.
Superbly put together. !) thumbs up.
As I said on Instagram, wow! Amazing 👌🏼
Thanks again sis! ☺
You’re welcome brother 🙏🏼😊
EPIC! I thought it looked good, but then when he said it sailed him, I was like 🤯 NOOOOOO 😢! Chuffed As, that it was all some kind of SICK Optical Illusion 🤣🤣😍😍👌🏽👍🏽! Congrats! 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Thanks Tom! Crazy aye man that was a roller coaster!
JE Wilds that’s how you know it was a ripper hunt! Every thinkable emotion all portrayed in an amazing clip 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽!
I love this channel this channel is so underated
Outstanding mate!
Cheers mate, appreciate the comment. Glad you enjoyed it
That camo looks so good
At 15:14 theres a Stag hit on the right with an arrow how does that fit in?
yeah I noticed that too, I prefer their videos where they hunt actual fair game wild ones, the safari hunts for these big heads aren't as genuine.
Great content!
Bloody awesome watch lads 🤙
Cheers mate!
This video is incedible bro. What a shot. Nice trophy. Well done
Thanks a lot im glad you enjoyed it!
That is a fantastic effort on both the hunt and the editing guys!! Your dad was super proud! As he should be. On wildboy, any sign of the shot from the first vid? How long was the gap between 1st vid?
hey Mate. Just starting my content creator journey and i cant understand how you only have 4k subs. Footage is insane and editing is superb. interested to know what Camera you use and is it on a gimble? cheers Corey
Thanks man all hand held GH5 filmed this one
Well done mate. I totally thought you missed high. 🏆👍🏻
Wow,well done mate.!
Wow the editing and effort you guys put into these videos is crazy … great great work !!!!
Thanks heaps Josh I appreciate the comment!
@@j.e.wilds-hunting yup! Up in the stand right now with the recurve waiting for a doe to walk by
Epic Goodluck!!
@@j.e.wilds-hunting thank you !
Awesome film guys!
Thanks Sol, legend bro cheers for the comment
Absolutely amazing filming Joe, just wondering which models of camo you guys use?
Epic film boys!
i wasn't going to email any more for a while but this is a real good video
Glad you liked this one too!
I've got to enjoy A LOT OF HUNTING VIDEO'S this is up there Joe! Frigging outstanding!!!! That must of been a very emotional moment! Congrats and thank you....
I like to see nature that is still wild, greetings from Indonesia
Thankyou for the comment Jeny! Greetings!
Thank you very much boss, ...... anyway I keep watching the hunting activities, I really like it. Greetings from Jogjakarta Indonesia. Continue to work and be healthy always.
You keep healthy aswell and I hope this year brings you many moments of joy
thank you
Gerald told me to watch this, I'm glad I did.
7:02 Yeah boys, THAT is an arrow. None of that wet tissue paper bs you had on there before. 🤜💥🤛
Hahaha yeah man, the fixed blades are what weve been using ever since
Omg… this is beautiful 🤗🤗🤗
I was feeling that stalk & briefly disappointed until you found the arrow. Can’t believe the end result next morning.
Crazy outcome that one aye such an epic Hunt!!!
I can, he was using proper arrows this time and smoked that sucker. Great effort and shot
@@MiaogisTeas it was a roller coaster that's for sure! I'm hanging out with Joe Fluerty right now in fact
Pro editor, nice video ever
Yeeew thanks man! I was hoping youd see it
you're so underrated
Been so freaking keen for this!!! I'll write another comment once I'm finished watching!! I'll trade you a red stag for a sambar? 👌🤣
Haha this could be arranged..
That was awesome! Made the Mrs watch part 1 to be able to watch part 2 🤣👌 Well dome though persistence paid off!
Perfect man! That's epic. Did she enjoy the story?
@@j.e.wilds-hunting yeah she loved it bro, She loves getting out in the bush nowadays, we have been chasing a red stag on our cameras. So this give her a little bit of inspiration to get out there
That's really cool so I will be seeing some big Stag hunt films on your channel soon then? Haha I hope so
This quality is insane! New subscriber here, much love from the Great White North!
Glad you enjoyed it mate!
Curious, you said in first video that it was possibly a lung shot? Two months later you come and drop it, so I am guessing it wasn't a lung shot first time, just a flesh wound?
Yeah just a flesh wound, we only speculated a lung shot because of the blood measurment on the arrow. It actually went along the ribs not through the ribs so not penetrating any vitals at all on the first shot.
Fantastic...I hope to make videos as good as you...good job bro
Just keep at it man it isnt to hard!
bloody ripper man that's epic
Cheers Joel, glad you enjoyed it mate
Nice your video brother
Hey thankyou very much
Awesome JE Daniel from central Mississippi
Thanks Daniel! All the best and I hope your getting some hunting done
Awesome😊👏👍
fletching colour on 'recovered' arrow?
Awesome film mate. just wondering why that stag? the stag behind him looked bigger? was it his age or something to do with leaving the larger stag to do the breeding? cheers
You gotta see part 1, they say why this specific guy was targeted.....
@@jeffffro7674 oh sweet thanks. watched part one when it came out but missed those details. cheers
@@bushhntr848 that's just it, Joe puts so much detail and thought in these posts, sometimes you have to watch a few times to see and hear ALL the info you need to have to fully appreciate the intense beauty and all the symbolism and lots of other stuff!!! It just amazes me, why are the best artists virtually unknown? Joe is good enough to do this professionally, easily, if that happened he would get even better and the quality of the films you get from people like that is capable of actually changing the world!
Ugh this country ! #drool, great film, colours are amazing, what are you shooting on? S1? Well done
I have an S1H but this one I filmed on my GH5
First time watching i think. Not a Hunter. But dude that was sic. One question tho. Was that in Victoria, NSW or QLD . Country side was insanely serene. Oo you might be in NZ. I was so focused maybe i never noticed the accents.lol
Haha I'm over in New Zealand! Glad you enjoyed the video
@@j.e.wilds-hunting seriously considering takeing hunting up for sure. Mainly for meat harvesting and the work it needs.
@@JorgeGonzalez-ei6ft if you eat meat then to harvest your own meat is a good feeling
Wait the arrow was lime green right? Whats going on
Was this high fence ?
yes
You need a drone mate,be able to see more from up there.
Great shooting
Nice hunt mate and well deserved! The adrenaline of getting in close with a boy is what hunting is all about! Was the darker stag behind him bigger? Good job 👍
Thanks man! Yeah the Stag behind was a bigger one. If you haven't seen the Part one of this 2 part series you should definitely scroll back and give it a watch, it's well worth it and tells the story
Bom dia muito bom, no Brasil não tem arqueiro
Mantap bro😋
Were in nz do u hunt
Insaaaane. These videos must take you hoooours to edit 😮
A few hours in that one thats for sure bro
@@j.e.wilds-hunting faaark yea I bet
south island or north island deer?
North Island this one
I don't think you missed over the top because of your yardage figure Joe. He simply jumped the string and dropped out of the shot. Have a look at where you aimed on the animal and then the arrow's path .... the arrow goes right where his shoulder was before he dropped. Tough luck .... cheers, Matt
Haha ... bit premature on that comment wasn't I ... should have watched the whole video first. Nice job !!!!!!!
Haha yeah man had to keep you on the edge of your seat on that one! Did you enjoy the film? Had you seen part one at all?
@@j.e.wilds-hunting Hey Joe ... yip, seen the first one. Both top notch. I think in the second one your audio, and especially the music choices, were much better. The music cuts and transitions were spot on with what was going on in the clips ... seamless and subtle enough so the viewer isn't distracted by those audio/music cuts and changes. You remember me commenting on the last one how I thought you has just the right amount of 'slow mo' clips ?? In the second film I thought they were a tad over done ... too many slow mo clips. That of course is just my opinion and I know how you really like a good amount of the slow motion stuff so take my comments with a pinch of salt. As always, edit the way you like it !!! Cheers, Matt
Thanks man glad to hear your opinion, it's always good to hear what others think. I'm releasing a film this Sunday coming, have a watch and let me know what you think of that one
wow
why’d you shoot the smallest of the 3?
From the description "Four Years ago, a young public land Red Stag found its way onto Wildside Hunting Safaris North Island property. As time rolled on this young Stag evolved into an aggressive, formidable, mature opponent to the resident Deer herd. With his upcoming dominance and his wild genetics he needed to be taken care of."
👏👏👏👍
At 15.13 you can see a second arrow hit the animal. That was the kill shot.
Good video, but I'm skeptical of the hunt and of the kill. At the time of the shot, the stag was facing to the hunter's left, leaving the hunter to shoot at the animal's left side. The arrow appears to me to sail completely over the animal's back. However, at timestamp 15:10 in the video, the stag is seen being shot in his RIGHT SIDE and running off WITH the arrow sticking out from his RIGHT SIDE, running for about 50 yards before the arrow falls to the ground. This shows that it wasn't a pass-thru shot, and would be unlikely to cover the arrow with blood to the vanes. Also, at 16:03, the hunter finds his arrow imbedded in some [thick] grass. Had the arrow fallen from the stag at 15:20, it would most likely just be laying flat on the ground; not buried in grass. In the video at 15:16, you can see the arrow falling VANES FIRST onto the grass. No way for the broadhead to get stuck in the grass. Finally, the camera angle at 15:10 in the video is not possible if the hunter only had ONE camera man, as the stag is practically facing the cameraman head on . All this taken together, I believe this video is a combination of at least 2 different hunts, and not a single hunt. I'm not saying that it didn't happen just as the video shows; I've seen lots of crazy things happen with deer. But I am very suspicious of it's veracity.
Thanks for your detailed comment, yes these are two hunts. There is a part 1 to this film series and you have commented on part 2. The scenes you speak of with the Stag being shot on his right side are reminiscing memories of the hunters previous encounter with this particular Stag. Have a look through the videos and find part one and have a watch of it. Thanks, Davie and thanks for taking the time to watch my films I appreciate it
@@j.e.wilds-hunting shrewd reply Joe. You escaped his grasp this time, but Davie will get you one day.
Uummm why did you go for the smaller deer for the first shot is this a pay property where you have to pay depending on how many points it has ????
yes
@@NZ-Culler how does it work mate , do they charge different prices for different species and how does it work with the antlers and how thick they are and per point ? Keen to find out how it all works and how much per day , reply would be appreciated .. cheers
15:12 😁
am I the only one who thinks the footage of the arrow just magically disappearing into nothing is fake? looks like they added in the arrow tail post production
Woah there's usually a ton of haters in you're video saying all hunters are murders and saying stupid shit when they don't know anything about what hunters do but there was none in this video
Yeah your right man, crazy aye that the non hunters even watch the video. Then they buy meat from the supermarkets. I prefer to get my own and then make a good memory out there on the hunt
I eat store meat sometimes but I prefer things that I hunt myself
Filth! Top effort!
Haha thanks for the comment!
