Vancouver Island rutting elk
Turn the volume up for some rutting Vancouver Island Roosevelts!
Even though I see it every fall, The past couple months of photographing Elk on the North end of Vancouver Island has been another epic experience. Growing up in a hunting family, I’ve dreamed about drawing a tag for one of these bulls for decades. Though it doesn’t put any of the cleanest meat a person can find in my freezer, chasing them with my camera and good friend is the next best thing.

hey great video guys !! i’m also from van island i was just wondering when your hiking the timber in november start if the rut , do you use a call or rattle or what do you recommend? would you start with a rattle sequence and then some doe grunts ? i have one of those aktis fawn bleat calls just looking for some advice? thanks 🙏 awesome footage btw
We rattle occasionally but very lightly and for only a few seconds, seems to be one of those less is more things with rattling blacktails on the island. It does get the young bucks moving though.
Great footage man. Like how you put it all together. Always enjoy your vids!!! Check out my youtube chan of my trailcam footage from mid island if you get the time!!! Cheers.
nice bull .smokin a dube?
That’s a lot of leg work and some great camera work and editing .
Hats off to you guys , filming with dslr it’s tough but footage is worth it . Excellent job . Island is tough to hunt , as if the black tails moves in shadows .Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the comment! Very few people understand how much work it takes to make half decent a blacktail video
Gret vid man. Really captures what we have here.
Unbelievable filming 👏
Are deer numbers down due to my lions, weather, or hunters? Great video, very much like hunting Sitka bkacktail where you often only see part of the animal.
I think its just a down cycle. There is an abundance of wolves right now, but hunting pressure im sure has something to do with it as well
This is so well done. Great shots and edit!
Great video! I’d love to learn the tricks to hunting these deer! Great filming! Be fun to document one of the North island hunts!
Glad you enjoyed it bud
Great video, looks alot like Prince of Wales Island, AK
Glad you enjoyed it pal, yah id imagine the country would be pretty much the same considering how close the 2 islands are
Unreal footage. I know how hard it is to even find a buck... let alone get his footage on the north island. Unreal.
Excellent quality video
Dar kha mazay kavay pashto speeak ok
This could easily be used a tourist advert. Nice editing!
Just here for the beautiful scenery
bad ass video guys
Good job, boys!! Nice to know there is at least 1 other hunter out there who doesn't shoot the first deer they get close enough to.
Amazing!
Great job on this Ron! Can't wait to see more! :)
Just stunning 👍🏻🇨🇦
Awesome video dude
It doesn’t get any better than this. Thank you.
Ron, your videos drive me. I am a bourn and breed islander wo was raised hunting. Your videos are by far the best of what gets me. Tje editing and music. The cuts and the country.... keep'er up bro!
So awesome 👌
Awesome! Some really great footage!
That is better than anything I've seen on TV.
Fine Job Gentz! VERY Fine that is!
Great video. Try again next year
Great video guys! Keep up the good work!
Great film! Looks like early September hunt? How was the hunting pressure?
Glad you enjoyed it! When we hiked in, one guy was hiking out. On day 9 2 guys hiked in and set up camp 200 yards from us so that was the end for us.
I believe if you guys posted consistently through the year, you guys would be a massive channel with the quality of video you post!
Glad you liked the video, it would be awesome to be able to do that but these videos require an entire hunting season of filming to get enough footage to make, hopefully as deer numbers improve we can start putting out more videos.
@@ronharvie1913 no I get that, just I mean how you guys film. I believe you could become a great outdoors channel! Bear hunts/ trail hikes ext! What part of the island are you based on?
@@dustin6094 yah ive definitely thought about all that and may pursue it eventually, but im up in Port Hardy, everything in the videos is about eve river and north
@@ronharvie1913 I figured, hopefully deer population comes back! I use to love hunting on the north island(now only elk). But over last 5 to 10 years numbers are nothing they were before!
Great vid. Nice camera work and image quality. I filmed a stone hunt in 2020 as well. On my channel if you're interested. Good luck on your next trip !
glad you liked it, ill check yours out for sure
Wow. Awesome control, nice to see some hunters left on the island that don’t hammer the first spike buck they see. Wicked filming too keep it up man no wonder you guys get em! Must have corks
Glad you liked it, some guys shoot the first deer they see and thats fine, hopefully more people start catching on that if you keep shooting little ones there will never be big ones. Those first couple years of a deers life they learn alot and their chance of survival goes way up! Just got to let them get there
Unreal camera work...thanks for sharing!
Beautiful videography and editing!
Great video you guys!
Absolutely fantastic video
Awesome video! Absolutely love hunting the north island for deer!
Very nice video, beautiful country and good to see our blacktails on the rise! thank you
Very nice , thanks for posting spent a lot of time north end of the island hunting
Awesome hunting up there ah !
not so much lol, there is some serious time and effort put in to get this kind of footage, 2-3 weeks at a time without seeing a deer sometimes. glad you liked it though
Even though you didn't harvest a ram it was still a cool video
Great video Ron. Hard species to hunt.
Awesome video guys. What camera are you doing the majority of your filming with?
Glad you enjoyed it, im currently using a canon eos R, using a 18-135mm f 3.5, a 50mm 1.8, and a 70-200mm 2.8 with a 2x converter. Shoot all animal footage in 4k as it has a 1.6 crop then scale it down to 1080p in post and that gets you in closer without losing much video quality if that makes any sense
I really enjoyed this. Good on ya for waiting another year for that ram.
Hello from Squamish, B.C. Very good video, good luck for next year.
Awsome video very well done!
Hey, you've got some gorgeous footage!
Amazing filming ! What call are you using
Thanks! I never used a call in this video
