“To only go one time would be a shame” unfortunately most of us will never have $20k to $30k to put down on a hunting trip. But, as someone who only owns Kuiu brand for hunting - I live vicariously through you.
Well you are either lying or don’t know what you’re talking about. The only way to get a Brown Bear Tag in Alaska is if you are an Alaskan resident (most are not) which means you have to buy a tag from an outfitter who all charge $15k to $25k I took the average of $20k it is the only place in America you can hunt brown bears. Otherwise you’re flying to Russia/Siberia and by the time you get through travel expenses, guides license you’re looking at similar prices so nice try dude try to blow smoke up someone else’s A
20-30k for a bear hunt? What are you hunting a gold-plated bear? The most expensive thing is food and toilet paper. I got 3 bears under my belt and i didn't spend much.
Oh really? Where did you get your bear tag? Just curious. What state do you live in? Because unless you are an Alaskan Resident or have family that is an Alaskan resident you can’t get a bear tag genius unless you buy from an outfitter
Oh and for you geniuses that keep saying “I have killed 6 bears” did you forget the interesting little piece of info at the beginning of the video? “There has only been an estimated 350 brown bears killed with a bow in the last 70 years” that’s not because it’s just so easy and cheap to get a brown bear tag.

A fifteen day hunt camping out in the cold and rain and hunting all day long is a challenge to any hunters determination to stick with the hunt to the last day, what a beautiful ending. To kill a deer at 50 yards is quite an achievement . Replace deer with Big Brown Bear and that kill was in a class of it's own. Nerves of steel and a skilled Bow Hunter pulled it off, what a hunt.
Congrats! I don't know how you guys hold it together. Bow in hand, last hours of the hunt after 15 days hard after it, AND you have this HUGE carnivore stand up in front of you less than 60 yards away, not knowing if your shot is going to make him run away or towards you. You got nerves of steel, my man!
Can I ask a few questions? I don't want to draw hate. I am not a vegan and I acknowledge the wild is a savage place. The life cycle is real and we (and other animals) eat meat. I am under no illusions surrounding where we get our food from. So I am not one of those guys. But does this hunt serve a purpose beyond fun? Are the bears a nuisance or pose a problem that they need to be culled every now and again? I would also like to ask about the specs on the bow. Brand, poundage, and arrow weight and speed with that arrow weight if possible ( I can calculate energy and momentum from that) That is a big bear, and I know the shot has to be clean, but I just wanted to get a gauge on what kind of weapon you would need to take down a creature that big assuming you make a clean strike of course.
in some areas there is too many predators so taking a few will increase the population of other animals like deer or moose. But also in general in most places there is enough bears that yes you can just hunt them for enjoyment and a pretty massive carpet or whatever you want to do with the fur.
The Alaska Fish and Game set limits for all big game based on what they think will keep the predator/pray life in balance alongside the right for the native tribes and residents of Alaska that use these animals as a main source of food. Brown and black bears in particular like moose and caribou... a lot. I think it is between 40-60% of all caribou/moose calves die due to bears and wolves, so it is important to keep the predator population in check so that hunting does not tip the balance in either way. That's the entire point of these hunts being available to those that don't live inside the state of Alaska.
Brendan you got the second BAR,&EVEN WANT MORE TAGS EVERY 4YEARS ALASKA GIVE FOR YOUR BEST ZONES...WELL GUESS WHAT SIR,YOU COULD BE DEAD BEFORE GETTING THE NEXT ONE...YOUR $CANT SAVE YOU THEN..."WHAT SHALL A MAN PROFIT IF HE SHALL GAIN THE WHOLE WORLD&LOSE HIS SOUL?" CONSIDER THIS SIR,JESUS WAS NOT UP ON HIS CROSS LAUGHING,HE PAID A DEBT OF SIN HE DIDNT OWE,WE DID!😮😮
My MAN! I cant tell you how many times I have watched that video from 2018. But I know I’ve told at least twice that many people that they have to watch it. It is my ultimate dream to go get one of those brown bears. I will will probably watch this video just as many times. I look forward to the one in 2026
FYI-State biologists, not hunters, determine what the healthiest population should be and issue tags accordingly. It's all part of an overall wildlife management plan.
The best part is when Brandon says "Gotta love bowhunters" and Lance says "no more". Its funny because the last bear hunt they went on Lance said he hates bow hunters 😂
The sheer fortitude and determination it must take to do 15 days in that place!! Whew, i can only imagine. You gotta really want it!! I love hunting and i looove camping but thats a whole nother level man. Mr lance is that guy, if you had to be stuck in a tent for two days let it be with him, the stories that man must have. Whew, super cool boys!!!
Truly epic. Best line, “We’re in the process of shooting the world’s shi!!iest brown bear hunt then this happens on day 15!” Thanks for sharing the highs and many lows that can come from true hunting.
Absolutely amazing hunt and just truly an astonishing animal. Will forever be my dream hunt with a bow and one day I hope to get the chance. Again great work to Brendan and the team.
When all the big trophy bears are gone what then, he seemed to be a big strong healthy male looking to mate and in the blink of an eye its over. No way of telling if he was sick or old or unable to reproduce. Big game in Africa is nearly wiped out because of trophy hunting. Pity!!
Imagine doing such a "movie" in style like you gonna save the world with music and so on and only thing they did is to kill defenseless bear... mind blowing
I don’t understand the pleasure of hunting a magnificent wild animal in its own habitat and taking it down so that it’s head can be mounted on a wall like it was some kind of an achievement.. Seems narcissistic and selfish to me
I am always amazed at people who watch hunting videos to disparage them…Everything Dies son..thats a mute point. Living is the Goal..spend your energy doing that…the earth is like 5 billion years old…humans and All organic life are blips on the screen.
I’m all for hunting but hunting bears? That’s kinda fucked up. What’s the point? They are super smart and amazing creatures. Go hunt deer or elk or some shit. Leave the awesome majestic predators alone.
Disgusting to say the least ,,,, and what do you people do with the animals you kill ? take a photo ? ,,, the government that's involved in granting permits to allow trophy hunting are every bit as much to blame as the individuals killing these animals.
This video is insane on so many different levels. The mental fortitude and strength it takes to stick with it like you did in this video is insane!! Kuiu give this guy some free hunting shit!!! Amazing video. Great work. Also will you guide me next year??!! Please!! P.s. Kuiu storm star 2 person tent is the only way to go.
I love Alaska! A place where so many dreams come true, the best times of your life…..and completely miserable while doing it 😵💫😁😁 sign me up. Great video gentlemen
Is all I want to know is where can I get that green button up shirt he’s wearing?! That thing is sweet! FYI this just popped up on my feed, zero knowledge on who he is or his brand.
It's a disgrace to see someone who thinks he's a hero like cowardly ambush and kill a bear from a safe distance with a deceptive Quacking Duck. Such a huge, highly developed animal, important for this nature, torn from life for an ego thought. Everyone can draw a bow, and there are many cowardly men like you who only feel good for 2 months because they actually have personal problems
Hot damn that was one beast of a bear.

Fantastic hunt and a great bow shoot congrats 👏
that bears head was the size of bros torso…..holllllyyyyy shiiiittttt that is terrifying 🤦♂️😂
Why do you kill this Bear??
For fun. He said in the video "To raise the bar".
The same reason you left a stupid comment. Because he felt like it.
Amazing what money can buy
So you hunt an inedible animal thats precious for the region for what exactly?
Good sporting challenge. Suck it up crybaby
FYI-State biologists, not hunters, determine what the healthiest population should be and issue tags accordingly. It's all part of an overall wildlife management plan.
@@Schacal6666 for the hunt, then the challenge, then the sport, then the skin and the skull . In order.
That was epic !
Lance and Burns, two of my favorite gentlemen in the industry. God bless you both
How can god bless a high tech weapon killer? What kind of god should that be? Surly not the god who created the beauty of our planet…
@MrRaeberz God gave us precedence over land and beast. Says so in the good book. Take care friend 😊
The best part is when Brandon says "Gotta love bowhunters" and Lance says "no more". Its funny because the last bear hunt they went on Lance said he hates bow hunters 😂
😂 all the adrenaline and shit @15:06 he thought the camera man was a bear! Coming up on em! 😂
I prefer hunters that do it for food not because of their insecurities.
What makes you think he didn't eat it or are insecure. You sound like the insecure one.
Poor bear, damn.
The amount of determination is what’s impressive to me! 15 days of hard hunting and getting it done with 3 hours left! congratulations
Ohhh youre guided by Lance?!!! That dude is "MR. BROWN BEAR"!!!!Every video ive watched with mr Lance in it has been badass and successful!!
Great video! Been in Alaska since 1977. Great job showing what Alaska hunting can be like.
Please tell me you ate that bear.
The sheer fortitude and determination it must take to do 15 days in that place!! Whew, i can only imagine. You gotta really want it!! I love hunting and i looove camping but thats a whole nother level man. Mr lance is that guy, if you had to be stuck in a tent for two days let it be with him, the stories that man must have.

Wow congratulations, you'll are blessed. not only to get that giant but to be able to hunt that long!
Polar bear is the world's largest land predator.
Kodiak bears tend to be slightly bigger than polar bears. They eat more protein than most bear species because of their specific diet of salmon
Is the Polar Bear the biggest land predator?
Or are they considered an aquatic mammal?
Either way…. An impressive, beautiful and fierce animal.
The Ram Hustle.. congrats Brendan
Shame on you. This is despicable.
Leave the bears alone, they never did you any harm. Feel like a big man now, huh?
That bear did everything right to become a king ,just to stand 0 chance against a hiding human
it looks like shooting fish in a barrel. what is the accual point of this. is the brown bear an introduced species and a pest to alaska....
Great hunt and incredible filming footage. Serious quality.
Excellent. That was a beautiful sow as well. There is nothing that compares to the peninsula in my opinion. Miss that place dearly.
Sport or culling or what?
Gosh dang that’s amazing. Bottom of the ninth / home run!
Good bless America!! Without hunters the land would be lost
Great bear. Great hunt. Nice work again Forsyth
What was that sound just before he shot the bow?
Predator call...imitates dying or distressed prey
That's 2x humongous Coastal's with a bow. You are a VERY LUCKY MAN-with a GREAT GUIDE. Where do you keep 2-10ft Brown Bears? Good problem. LOL
Should try and Fred bear that hunt! Recurve style
Why? compounds are better.
Dude what arrow and head did you use and what was the weight of the arrow ? Awesome Hunt..
What’s the point man. He will be waiting when you cross over
Unless you don't eat meat you need to stfup
Wow, awesome film. Couldn't imagine how incredible this hunt must be with a bow.
Nothing like good old fashioned grassroots corporate hunting!
Truly epic. Best line, “We’re in the process of shooting the world’s shi!!iest brown bear hunt then this happens on day 15!” Thanks for sharing the highs and many lows that can come from true hunting.
What was the song at 8:30? I liked it. Great hunt guys!
It takes balls of steel to hunt Browns with a bow. Great job man!
And the 4 other guys off camera holding 3 guns apiece
Old Indian proverb - take life unnecessarily and life takes yours in return.
Usually it’s cancer.
It not unnecessary to take this life
Wooo congratulations awesome bear + the views 👍
Wtf what is the sense behind killing this animal? Just for fun or what.
Absolutely amazing hunt and just truly an astonishing animal. Will forever be my dream hunt with a bow and one day I hope to get the chance. Again great work to Brendan and the team.
Totally awesome! Can’t begin to imagine what you felt. A true monster. Congratulations Mr. 👍👍
You can go only every 4 years??
THAT IS A HUGE DAMN BEAR.CONGRAULATIONS
WOW!!! HANDS DOWN THE BEST BROWN BEAR HUNTING VIDEO ON UA-cam, AND BELIEVE ME IVE SEEN ALL OF THEM!
Perseverance!!! Love it.
When all the big trophy bears are gone what then, he seemed to be a big strong healthy male looking to mate and in the blink of an eye its over. No way of telling if he was sick or old or unable to reproduce. Big game in Africa is nearly wiped out because of trophy hunting. Pity!!
I hope you're a vegan talking this gibberish.
Wicked stuff Matt, looking forward to the next one!
What is that camo pattern called? Never seen that looks like a desert storm chocochip remix
Imagine doing such a "movie" in style like you gonna save the world with music and so on and only thing they did is to kill defenseless bear... mind blowing
How do you draw a tag for it every 4 years. That's the crazy thing
Great story, thanks for sharing!!
Nice beautiful big bear, congrats. Hopefully the 2026 trip you will be using a recurve or longbow... Now that would be impressive... 😉
I think I’ve seen every grizzly hunt on UA-cam. I was hype to see something new!!
Where can I find that button up at the end of the video
I don’t understand the pleasure of hunting a magnificent wild animal in its own habitat and taking it down so that it’s head can be mounted on a wall like it was some kind of an achievement..

I think you are using those words to sound smart but you are not correctly informed.
what is that arrow at 2:15
What is that franken bowsight black gold with an option head?
You’ll one day wail tears of pain in realizing the precious miracle of life in all creatures. You will collapse in weakness as you feel the reality.

I get where ur coming from but I believe God gave us animals to use such as hunting as long as u use everything u can from the animal
@@FatBackMemesyes exactly, it’s also in the Bible as well
lol probably not cause that’s gay af and this dude is out having fun
So you've never eaten meat ?
What's the price
What rifle and caliber yall using?
Great video and hunt. The walk up is always live.
Why did the bear need to die?
That's hunting
To manage their population.

Great video! Fantastic storytelling and captures a truly epic adventure. Way to stick with it. 15 days on an island is a LONG time.
Awesome hunt. I love watching success stories like this.
Isnt the polar bear the biggest land predator on the planet
That's a low percentage shot, but hey you can't make a shot you don't take.
Really nice to see the real emotion for such a beautiful creature! Did you eat the meat?
He is a great bear. Nice job Brother.
That Valkyrie was the definition of the right head for that hunt! Awsome footage.
Cringe
Biggest factor is the $$$$… if it wasn’t for these hunts being 20,000.00 - 30,000.00 a lot of people would go regularly.
