Was anyone else wondering where that full size shovel came from? Hard to imagine they carried something like that in if the hike was as bad as it was made to look? 😂
Can’t imagine they found it up there - especially if it looks like it’s 20 years old lol
@@MuleyFreak What crazy bastard brought that thing up there. Lol
Hmmm full length shovel appears at just the moment it was needed. Almost makes you think they went back to the truck and got the shovel. Can't believe they were as far back as the video implies. Outside of that, great video to watch
@@danfinch6103 yeh. From the response they gave and some of the discussion in it, the area sounds like a well known spot that has been used for years though. So who knows. Sweet Buck either way
LOL. Not sure, but we were grateful that day!
Who ever fletched those arrows did a hell of a job 👌🏼 Nice shooting my man. Awesome buck. 🤘🏼
He’s a rockstar, actually. Thanks, brother!!!
Whoever did it is cute too!
Congrats on an amazing buck and wonderful memories. That is what continues to lure us back every year… the thought of what the next ridge brings!!!!
Well said! Thanks for watching, Jeff.
Absolutely, Jeff. Thanks for watching!
There were so many cool moments in this video, except for the entrance music, lol! What an epic deer to harvest, congrats Eric...he's something to be real proud of!

A shovel was the best part never expected that 😅
I didn’t expect to find that in the bushes either haha
lol we didn't expect it to be where it was
Great work guys!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you guys!!
Awesome job guys...That's gonna take some beating!😎
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for tuning in!
Hunted that exact spot on the muzzy and after the summer scouting gotta say I was bummed when that buck was killed out of there. Stayed in that same camp with the shed drilled into the tree many times this summer. Congrats on the great buck that’s some special country in there
🧢
Super blessed to harvest an animal of this caliber with a bow. Thanks for watching!
The Utah monsoons always hit the first week of the archery opener. 😂 it’s notorious
High country monsoons suck 😂😂
Every. Single. Year. Literally for 3 years in a row.
What a great film. God was looking down on you guys for sure. Pouring rain to keep the brush moist and quiet, those other bucks leaving and leaving him alone. The fact that he was bedded in the sun for hours and didn’t move. Payton getting the buck to standup by making something “ting”. What a great buck. Every bit of it was earned. Well done!
Well said, Rodger. God was def overseeing our entire hunting season. Thanks for all the support, brother!
Don’t be stupid man…God doesn’t care about deer hunting
God cares about whatever you care about TBH. He created the universe so therefore abides by the laws of the universe.
Hell of a buck! Great film man love it. Congratulations well deserve and earned.
Thank you, Jake!! Appreciate your continued support.
Thanks, Jake! I hope you're doing well, brother. Keep earning it!
The most amazing stalk I’ve ever witnessed in person! And a stud buck to-boot 🔥
Puddle under the tent, *pulls out full size shovel. LOL. NICE BUCK!
Haha. Dug it out of the brush! Lol
Real hunters I would say, been in many of those storms there scary but it’s so cool at the same time
It's def makes you feel insignificant and helps me totally recognize the hand of the great creator!
Absolutely
Dang good stalk. It takes some luck!
It always does! Thanks for watching!
Congratulations on a hell of a buck! You guys earned it ! Happy Thanksgiving !
Thank you, Sir! Happy Thanksgiving!
My boy!!!!
Thanks for watching, dude!!!
I love that intro
Thnx!
Heck of a buck!!! We’ll done gents!!
Thanks, J-rod. We appreciate the support!
Always putting out great content... as a new hunter my self I look up to this guy... great work like always 👏 👍 👌 🙌
Thanks for the watch, brother! Happy Thanksgiving!
@MuleyFreak happy Thanksgiving to you and your team as well.. your gear is 🔥 hopefully my wife surprises me with some of your stuff cuz it's 🔥.
Ha ha. Game bags available now too! muleyfreak.com/products/game-bag-sets?_pos=1&_sid=6ced8beb8&_ss=r
Great deer, awesome stalk, congrats! To kill a deer with archery tackle in the high country is a feat in its self, but to kill a giant is a whole another ball game and you just whacked a homerun! Awesome video, thx for sharing.
Thanks, Scott! I feel super blessed to have connected with this buck in this environment as well. Thanks for watching the video!
Thanks for watching, Scott. It was a rewarding grind.
What binos were those orange ones?! Never losing those!
Haha. Nope! Swaro EL ranges.
Early in the video, Erik had a tan / green “muley freak” puffer jacket on. What jacket is that, where can I find it? Thanks!! Fantastic video
It’s not available yet as it’s a prototype; however, it will be ready by the hunt expo! Stay tuned!
Monster
He’s a dandy! Thanks for watching!
I know its probably a dumb question for but I have to ask what rope lights are you using for the camp?
Last lights.
Congrats on a great buck! The harder the battle the sweeter the victory! You earned that one. Who is the artist of the last song played?
I want to know too!
Which leopold the spotting scope you’re using? Thoughts? I’m close to buying an upgrade but haven’t pulled the trigger yet….
We’ve been using swaro spotting scopes this year. Thanks for watching!
Erik was using a SWARO ATX 65 MM.
What black ovis hooded shirt are yall using?
They’re lightest piece.
Fantastic. Congratulations! I just order some MF gear earlier today.
Thanks for watching and we appreciate the support!
Thanks for your support Jason!
How do you guys get a phone battery to last that long? Extra battery packs or solar?
Pack extra battery packs, yes. Every night it get cold it sucks tour battery!
Do you take a generator with you to the backcountry, if so what kind?
No lol
We don’t on backpack hunts like this.
What bow sight was Erik using?
This hunt I was using the Dialed Archery Arxsos 3 pin sight; however, testing some new stuff this year.
How did the teepee perform?
Pretty good. I prefer a tent, but it still did well.
People that hunt white-tail in blinds don’t know what hunting is 😂this is real hunting
This isn’t definitively a different type of hu ting.
I don’t see the link to the phone skope does anyone know where it is or where to get it?
Added link, but also available through the black ovis link on their website
What state is this hunt in? I'm assuming public lands based on the DIY or is this private?
Public, sir.
Public land hunting honey holes are tough to come by these days! :)
Are you sure it’s public this time??? Asking for Idaho
Rent might be getting expensive for you.
@@NEPTOONSKI54 I’m not asking for a unit or honey hole. I respect people’s hard work to find areas for success. All I was asking was the state and if it was private or public. That make the difference in know whether an animal is growing naturally or being exposed to additional nutrition and genes that cause the extra growth.
And that’s why I got rid of my tipi and will never go floorless again
I’ve thought it before, but the weight of a floor less and the stove capability is amazing.
Way more room in a tipi!!
They said they have been hunting there for years The shovel could have came up on a previous trip.duu?
Who said they had been hunting there for year? FYI we found the shovel in the bushes. No idea who hauled that up there...
🦌🦌💥💥❤❤❤
🔥🔥🔥
Wait a minute... you carried a full size shovel up the mountain?
Negative. We found it stashed in the bushes.
Terrible camera quality angle. Great job. Great buck
We can always be better and that's what we are striving for. Thanks for watching!
The video is way too long. Good thing you can fast forward on KZhead.
LOL. I was just going to say no one is making you watch it - although, we are glad you did. Have a wonderful holiday season!
Still dont know how or why hunters think that these worthless ‘energy’ drinks are helpful. Besides being overpriced as well. Good grief. Do some actual health and exercise research and put your money where it helps not in the toilet
I didn’t see any energy drinks being consumed, actually. Did I miss something???
No one drank an energy drink lol
Awesome buck!
Thank you, Sir! He’s an awesome deer.
Thanks for watching!
