I completely lost it when you were talking about your dad. Makes me appreciate my dad a lot more.
Parents leave us to soon and our children grow up to fast.
Yeah same. Unfortunately a lot of us take them for granted till it’s too late. We need their support and wisdom more than our young selves know
Me too. My dad and I fought about everything growing up as well. He's 76 now and has cancer. I would love to take him hunting somewhere before his time is up.
@@aqua.scape69 do it if he can! You will have that memory for the rest of your life and it will be one of your most cherished.
This was what I came to the comments for. Very unexpected I stopped what I was doing to listen to the story.
No one shows more respect to his environment, the land and the animals than Steve - I truly believe mankind needs to learn how to be more like this . Thanks Steve for such producing such inspirational educational respectful hunting videos
No one??
That's a false statement.
Kk
Nobody on Netflix. ....no but really. Hats of to all the true outdoorsmen and woman. Steve sets a great example, no doubt
I mean. Remi Warren. Ryan Callaghan. Indigenous peoples who have been living purely off the land for tens of thousands of years, fighting to protect it more than anyone in the industrialized world.
To say that no one shows more respect than ol’ Stevo is a nice sentiment, but demonstrably false. He’s a good dude, no doubt, but making hyperbolic statements about him does no good for anyone
One emotional, spiritual, and philosophical episode, everyone knows the rules.
This comment is an 8.4
Agreed. This one and Mountain Memories are my two favorites. Both were deep episodes that made me appreciate Steve and Meateater that much more
Powerful and perfect
This comment get a 5.2 steve isn't a douche like Dave. Dave hunts for cocaine and underage women and the only glass dave's looking through is the table he's doing rails of off
*I see you*
I'm so glad these episodes are on UA-cam. Netflix seems to have a limited selection.
Yea idk when the next season comes out but I’m really hoping they do it soon
I just like the content so I try to rewatch on different platforms.
I think they just got there Netflix deal recently so only the newer seasons are on there
Only the last three or so seasons are on Netflix and they just finished season 9. Hopefully it won't be too long a wait for season 10.
I saw that they are most likely putting a new season or seasons on in July
Hello fellow hunters. If you’re reading this I hope you have a blessed upcoming 2021 hunting season. God bless 💯🙏🏽
I’m not a hunter, but I’ll take it. Hahaha.
Have a great 2021, brother 👍🏼
Thank you so much
@@RDB93 hunter or not, no worries. Thank-you so much. You as well brother! 🙏🏽
@@xs4lassassin of course you’re welcome! :)
Piss aff
Best hunting show by far. Because of rhe variety of game Steve targets, his admiration for the land and the game and his profound knowledge he imparts upon you while sitting on a lone hills glassing for game. The man is a poet
steve is so bad ass
I like watching him learn how people from other cultures harvest various types of game.
I agree plus she has gas come on he cooks for other people he cooks for his guides he guides his own hot it's like a bunch of different content and like you said a variety of different game so you're not just watching him cut up a deer every episode there's Hogs bear Beaver rabbit turkey everything I learned how to skin a bear by watching mediator I swear and then he's had some great guess come on I love when Joe Rogan and Joe Rogan's buddy come on they've been on four times now he had two girls come on they've been on two different episodes I love how he explains everything and he doesn't talk to people like oh you shouldn't know this he explains it like you would never know what the heck he's talking about that's how well he explains it plus like I said you get a bunch of different aspects from the hunting the cooking the shot placement sometimes he's guiding people sometimes he's being guided sometimes they go out camping with your 4 days I never even knew you could eat coyote or mountain lion and I've watched him do that on the show I never knew why Southerners love catfish because I've always hated it and now I learned how to clean it on the show I can't wait to catch a catfish to try it now
I kind of lost respect for Steve. Seems like he had no respect for his father until gis father was going to die.
He can make you appreciate hunting whitetail in a stand on 10acres as much as spot and stalk hunting Moose in 10miles. I don’t think I’ve ever heard him disrespect any honest hunter.
That story about your Dad really got me Steve. I lost my Dad to brain cancer several years ago... I miss home every day and he taught me so much about the outdoors here in the PNW. Best to you mate. Love the content and love Meateater.
A fantastic episode. Minimal music and narration, just Steve being direct and open on a great hunt. Episodes like this are what keep Meateater at the top of it's genre. Respect from New Zealand 👍
100% agree. Cheers from Texas.
Could not agree more, cheers from Canada
I loved the lil story about your Dad! Good stuff!!! He's looking down smiling......
I’m born and raised in Arizona, I was born in Springerville and raised in Phoenix I still own my grandmas old home up in springerville. My mothers side of the family has called Arizona home far before it was even part of the United States my grandma raised me with a strong love and pride in this land she made sure I knew this was my home. I held my grandmas hand as she took her last breaths in the hospital she was very much out of it but her last words were “I wanna go home dad” her father passed away long before I was ever born so he wasn’t physically in the room with us that day.
Good to know you Riley, born and raised here myself.
I am a Roadrunner whisperer.
I have raised 15 + Roadrunner from pup's to full breeding
pairs. All are wild-raised and reared, I only give them scrap meat and take pictures.
They congregate in the evenings and we talk and share a meal.
Archery Javelina, Deer and Elk.
@@dirtclodaz.1161. That’s awesome I love seeing roadrunners.
I was raised in Eagar! Small world.
@@crd4146. Nice! My house is right in front of Round valley elementary school.
@@dirtclodaz.1161 crazy we have domesticated about 8 roadrunners at work and some packs of wild javalinas we don’t feed much they just seem to like human interactions
I love the candid nature of this video in particular. Not a whole lot of action, and when you talked, you just allowed it to be a moment with just you, the land, and the silence it provides. Stunning 😌
Wow, the intro brought me to tears. My grandfather died from throat cancer. He died at home with me taking care of him including giving him moriphine the last few days. A few months before he died my uncle (his son), my grandfather, and I went to his favorite stream to camp and fish for a few days. He said that he would set up camp and told us to go fishing, that he would just fish near our campsite. I came back before my uncle to see papa relaxed and sleeping. I don't know if he did any fishing that week, but I know he enjoyed it. He always said he felt closer to God among the pine trees more than he ever did in a church.
I'm not nor have I ever been a hunter (except rabbits a couple times long ago), but I have so much respect for Steve and HIS respect for the sport and the art of the hunt. Can't wait for more videos!!!
I've watched all of your episodes, Steve, and most of them with my dad. He passed the day before this last Thanksgiving. We had a very similar age dynamic to you and your pop. Mine was 45 when i was born. He was a hunter all his life until getting injured around the time i was born, so he never got to take me out except one short time in a blind. He has spoken fondly of his time spent in the woods and your episodes helped reawaken that passion he had for hunting. I have learned a lot myself from watching these episodes. Thank you for all that you do!
This episode is high art masquerading as a hunting show. Absolutely beautiful piece of film making.
It’s alway difficult to rectify the passing of a loved one. Your memories are a gift.
I thoroughly enjoyed the lack of music on this episode. Sometimes I hate when they put music behind the hunt in an attempt make it more compelling. Just let it be what it is. Thanks Steven. Love what you do.
Pleasantly surprised by how emotional & candid this episode was
Man this was heavy in all the good ways. Hiked this country many times and really vibed with this episode. Steve, you're the man.
By far the most ethical “trophy” hunt I have ever had the pleasure of witnessing.
At one time many many years ago, Native Americans from several nations covered these lands. When I see these beautiful mountains and lands, I imagine what life was like for them. The freedom that they enjoyed. A lifestyle like no one has enjoyed after them. It is still peaceful and has wildlife with no development in this area of the state. Enjoy this Steve. If a man has his way one day it may be developed and gone forever. I lost my dad when I was 4 and never raised around a man who could teach me about the outdoors. Now, due to my broken body from an accident, it is too late for me. But I can enjoy nature through folks like yourself.
Your whole perception of life and hunting and just just plain old living is admirable and inspiring to me! Thank you!
Totally relate to your loss Steve.I lost the old man through lung cancer at 21. Taught me so much in those years but too young to go. His motto was always , "we are not here for a long time but we are here for a good time.🏴
Great episode, keep them coming 👍
' but if i can have the head AND the body.... thats a good deal.'
Absolutely profound Mr. Rinella.
your monologue about your dad hits home as I lost my dad this year, we too fought and did not talk much. We never got that last trip.
When I go hunting and come back without game I never have the feeling I wasted time or it was for nothing.
Not a hunter myself! (Yet) but loving the content here on UA-cam! Makes me go on hikes, very motivating
What region do you live in? I'm curious about the game you have around you? Cheers to your future hunt
Same!
Unfortunately for me most my hunts just turn into hikes with a gun or bow in my hands lol 😕
I prefer hunting over hiking because it makes just sit still and listen and watch. You learn so much more when you are focused on your surroundings.
@@slugoo6474couple years late lol but yeah you get to see much more stuff on a hunt because you’re trying to be quiet and you’re really focused on looking not just moving and covering ground
Mr Rinella brings a whole new dynamic to the word hunter. So insightful and philosophical. I was so into that hunt I actually told my kids shush while he was stalking. I think his dad would be extremely proud of the man and Hunter that his become.
I really appreciate this episode and what you had to say about your dad . I lost my dad recently at 21 and it's the hardest thing I've had to deal with but for some reason I felt like I wasn't the only one going through this long period of greif after watching this episode I appreciate it
I never would have guessed that you were old enough to have a dad that fought in WWII...wow!!!! I’m 48 and my dad was born in 1943, but like you said your dad had you when he was old/50...impressive. Love your show!!!
My first comment, I was still watching the beginning of this video....still watching and I have chills...good chills. Thank you 🙏
I loved this episode. I feel like we got to see steve at a deeper level
This is the best hunting channel right now, i hope y’all don’t blow up like other channels and turn into another corporate tv show.
I love how quickly he gets dialed in, once he is looking through the scope.It's like me when I'm on my phone.
My father passed over 14 years ago and there isn’t a day that I have hunted where I didn’t think about him and wish he could be here to experience natures beauty with me one more time. Life is a precious gift, get out there and experience it.
Steve has the most spiritual perspectives. I love that he loves all the aspects of hunting not just the Adrenalin of the kill. Best hunting show because it’s about more then just the hunt it’s about all the moments. I feel like I’m on the journey with him.
Man, Steve just kills it with these episodes. The part about his dad was just so perfect and something you wouldn't expect from a hunting show. Meateater is the best.
Steve “I already been out here longer than I figured I’d be out here longer than I planned” Rinella
This is a masterpiece in minimalist film making.
We need episodes like this more often. I love these types of episodes when you get deep and meaningful about what fuels you and what you think about
I think this might be the best episode they ever made.
This is one of the best episodes of any show I’ve ever seen.
Pretty emotional! Never got to hunt with my Dad. Been blessed to have hunted with my son. God Bless America 🇺🇸 🙏 ❤️ 😢 🙌 🇺🇸 🙏 ❤️ 😢 🙌 🇺🇸
MeatEater....the death of hunting shows on cable lol. They do such a great job on every show.
I came for the hunting and I stayed for the amazing story. Keep doing what you’re doing.
I love the work you fine people do! I've learned so much over the years. Much appreciated.
Dang brother thank you for sharing your story about you and your pops!!! I cherish every hunt with my 74 year old pops!!! Live every minute of it!! Brother your dad is with you on every hunt. His spirit is always with you!! 🙏🏽 keep them great episodes coming!!!
This is the best episode I have seen. Nothing like spending a week or more alone in the wilderness. You experience the peace that modern life can't give you. I totally understand feeling satisfied with nothing to show for it. Like a Hunting dog , or your cat. Hunting is part of what we are. After years of Hunting, the satisfaction of Hunting is greater than the harvest. Because after the shot is taken, the hunt is over.
After losing my dad to cancer, I don’t know how you can tell a story like that without tears. You’re one hell of a guy Steve.
Thanks for allowing yourself to be so vulnerable and to share that incredible part of yourself. I'm sure many if not all can relate in one way or another with the story of your father. God bless you brother!
This is the meat eater we love. No rock concert fishing bullshit.
This is almost like an ASMR episode. As an introvert I love these quiet, philosophical, no background music and just pure nature episodes
No way! As an Arizona native I'm hyped to see this episode always wanted to hunt around the sky islands
Heavy episode, appreciate the candor Steve, praying for you and yours. Keep up the amazing work!
This is my favorite episode. It’s an episode about life.
This is my favorite episode. No quarry harvested, but the philosophical reverie is game enough.
Hard to put all those feelings into words....well done!I lost my dad to cancer,we did not see eye to eye so to speak,but our time while out hunting and fishing together we were always able to come together and enjoy each other’s company.
Steve you are not only a wealth of honest information but a real person to boot.
Thanks for all the hard work.
End of this episode is going incredible. What a monologue
In my opinion this might be the best episode of MeatEater I’ve ever seen
2023 deer season underway best of luck to you all!
@10:00 I have one whitetail rack on the wall of my hunting camp. It's from my first deer taken from my grandfathers gun handed down to me. He walked ashore Omaha Beach and into Europe. Took one deer in Germany but never got one where we lived. I did it with his rifle. Everytime I look at it I remember Pepre who fought in WW2, came home and did a factory job for 40 yrs, his vacation was 2 Weeks of deer season. Never got a deer but didn't much care. It was the hunt and time alone in the woods that mattered.
Reflective, contemplative Rinella is the best Rinella
Best episode! A reminder that a man in wilderness isn't about bravado, but actually about his spirit.
The story about your father made me absolutely sob.
God bless.
The most epic show cross over: MeatEater and Survivorman a 7 day survival in alaska where steve and les have no food just hunting equipment
this is my favorite episode too date, everything from the scenery, steve’s dialogue, and a lack of sound track make it absolutely perfect.
Like a bee & a flower. It's a symbiotic relationship.
I love a good episode of Steve just waxing poetic about life and stuff this was cool
My dad built a ranch down there, not far from where you are hunting. He and I would hunt every season and were rarely successful. But we bot looked forward to it just because we could spend time together and laugh.Two years ago I lost my hunting partner, my pops, to cancer. Like you, I would give anything to spend one more day out glassing with him. Thanks for sharing your story.
Pure gold. Relatable on so many levels. Much respect!
so sorry for the loss of your dad... thank you for sharing your story.
Just discovered you channel in the last week or so, one of the best if not, the best hunting channel I watch. It’s not just about hunting an animal, the respect you give to hunting and the animal makes your channel special. It’s not about the size of the antlers. You also show us how to cook, travel places I would probably never go to in my life. It’s not just about killing an animal.
Best episode. No question. Thank you for everything, Steve.
A whole lot of healing for my man Steve. Right on brother, keep living life. 🙏
Great episode. The evolution of steve of the seasons has been great to watch.
My daughters turned me on to your channel. Age 6, 10 and 14. I am so glad they did. Early Father’s Day gift.
They know my respect for animals. Due to my work, business, hobbies and personality.
Thanks for sharing yourself with us Steve. What you said means a lot to me and I differently connected with the moments you had. The way you talked about your dad,,,,,,, wow...... it spoke to my heart. My dad had passed some time back and I too wish he could share in the place and experiences I have. Thanks for being real with us...... with me. Keep doing the thing you do, I love it.
I can't explain how much this resonates with me growing up. I'm a very emotional guy, I've always hunted with these conflicting emotions, taking a life for different reasons is something we have to decide but the memories and lessons in those decisions are what embodies who we are as a person. Very well articulated this episode.
One of the BEST episodes ever.
Steve saying I don't have words for a man that talks non stop. Well you Pretty much summed up what it means to be a hardcore hunter. Much appreciation Rinella. Thank you kind Sir. For all you do for us in the hunting community.
This is so real, this really stands out from all the other shows n stuff that fail to teach you anything, always learn smt when I watch these hunts.
Man, my dad went by bad lung cancer the same way. Six months when we caught it. He wanted me to take him for some drives.
Man I feel so much for you.
When they go it seems like the bad fades away and you just remember the good.
One of my favorite episodes! Pure, simple, profound.
Absolutely best hunting education there is. Such a great program
The harder you have to work to eventually get that deer, the greater the memories when you remember back years from now.
Awesome episode, I can relate to a lot of what you said about hunting passed down from father to son . One thing I love more than anything about hunting is the wind blowing through the pines. I’d like to thank my dad for teaching me how to be a outdoorsman I love you dad Rest In Peace -Jeremy
I know this is a little bit older video. But this is the one I needed to see. Rethinking alot of my life! Great job!
Loved the sound theme of this episode. It was edited to perfection! Such an amazing series.
This episode depicted the epididymis of a perfect hunt. You probably would have prefered to leave the viewers(cameras) out of this one, but I for one am glad you brought us along.
This was so serene, wonderful. Can't hunt without appreciating nature and its beauty.
Best hunting channel I’ve discovered. He has respect for the land and the animal and I think some hunters don’t have that. But they should
I really appreciate him sharing the stuff about his father.
This was a great episode, and my thanks to Steve for sharing such personal anecdotes with the public.
I'm not crying, you're crying
I'm definitely crying
I’m calling my dad after watching this video man thank you for this vid Steve
I like this episode, sprinkled in between all of the others. Just unaccompanied. I did the same myself over the weekend, but it was bass fishing. Remembering how my dad used to wake us up at 5AM to get out to a nearby lake before everyone else, and while they were biting.
Thank you for sharing that story about your father. I appreciate your journey and taking us with you.
I've watched all your episodes up to this point, and this is my favorite. It felt even more so that i was up on the mountain with you. Thanks for a sharing your wisdom, being so honest and for all the hours of entertainment. All the best Steve
Really nice moment when you spoke about your father. Definitely relatable. Great content man
Love your show Steve! This episode is an all-time great. It shows how deeply connected you are to what you are doing. Very well appreciated that you share your experiences with us!
