All those guys with $300 elk calls that have spent 10 years trying to get a bugle just threw their phones into the wall when Jake got a response with a pterodactyl scream.
That's hilarious!
What the heck is a $300 elk call?
@@muffintop420 a device that makes a perfect elk call
edit: if used properly
@@billybigs4207 I'll stick to my diaphragms :)
I dont blame them
The worst part is guy misses close standing still shot. Then starts spraying when they run. Buddy if you missed a still shot you ain't touching one running
I would understand with a bow or crossbow but a rifle like really
S Walker plus he wasn’t shooting at the buck
The guy needs to go back to the shooting range. And not practicing on a video game. What a moron!!!
Reminded me of gun season at our family cabin. Seriously you just hear shots blasting from sun up to sun down like seriously you missed. Unloading while they are running isn’t going to be the answer lol. Must be an idiot thing and they just wanna shoot their guns
ON the other hand @the hunting public You walked and then stayed in his field of fire... and are you not also pointed down in that field where that hunter is waiting? if you were to fire at anything would it not also be in his direction? I think this argument goes both ways, the only difference is this hunter wasn't there to just get footage for a youtube video.
Like you saw he was working that field, and then camped there in the way and now your all offended that he was attempting to hunt, like some self reflection will do us good here.
I was cringing so hard that whole time when the "hunter" was trying to shoot those deer. Zero awareness and a horrible shot. He shouldn't be allowed around guns.
Agreed
Guys a idiot
I had a bullet hit a branch next to my tree stand, That was the last time I hunted out of a tree stand during rifle season on public land.
@@unsaltedlife5998 That happened to someone I know and it was multipule shots not just one
Pedigree 1-2-3 thats crazy I would shoot back
Ya know your beeing quite when you can sneak up on a big cat
Facts
Mountain lion kid
They say cat for short for mountain lion moron
Hit him with that uno reverse card
Lmao guys a mountain is included in the "big cat" family just like lions morons
Grant: “Hey cat!”
Cat “Hold up, wait a minute, something ain’t right.”
I laughed when he looked up like oh shit
Human: “Ay cat!!”
Cat: 👁👄👁
The scene where all you guys are sitting around watching Jake’s elk call is a classic. Just the reactions from everyone had me laughing out loud. You have THE BEST UA-cam hunting channel.
I was about to comment the same thing. Shows how down to earth they are and how much excitement they have for the wild.
I definitely would’ve walked across that field and had a talk with the guy in the first clip. Unbelievable and he shouldn’t be hunting
Might have earned him some claws across the face.
forgalzz7 ikr
I woulda sent some rounds his was
I would've probably shot towards him first because he knew he was there just didn't really care and for a doe he missed at no more than 20 yards shouldnt even be hunting.
@@longgone4931 thank you google translate
I went to go refill my feeder last week and I bent down to mess with my trail cam and heard something walking behind me, my feeder was about three miles back in the woods so I knew it wasn't a person so I stand up and turn around and its a buck I've had on camera a few times about 20 yards away from me staring at me so I'm standing there watching him and he eases in to about 8 or 9 yards away so I pull my pistol out and was gettin ready if he was feeling froggy and we had about a 6 second stare off and I finally moved and he galloped off a little bit. He watched me the whole time I refilled it and as soon as I left he started eating. Very interesting experience.
I’ve been watching THP from the very start and when they play videos from the 17 deer tour, it blows my mind that it’s been that long ago. It has changed the way I hunt in every aspect. I still get just as excited to see an episode come out as I did in the very beginning. Thank y’all for the hard work and making such great content for us to view!
No doubt, been a fan of Aaron and the boys since Midwest Whitetail days!
Thanks for following along with us Daniel, we appreciate the support. It is hard to believe it's been three years already since we started!
You should have put the clip in where ( I think it was grant) tried to jump the fence and landed face first
That's a classic, probably could put that clip in every video and still get a laugh!
which video is this? asking for a friend..
I had a young hunter stalk my decoy to 30yards, and draw back, before I whistled at him to prevent it.
I may have had to let him sling an arrow just for shits and giggles
S Walker fr tho
Lmao id let him sling an arrow first lmao that’s hilarious tho! Bet he thought he was all stealthy
S Walker Watch your profanity
@@dmac2899 Welcome to the Internet. You must be new around here. For general tips and tricks, you might want to look up Goatsy.
I remember the episode with the gun hunters. I was so mad. No one is taught to hunt like that, it's a shame, they make a bad name for many hunters. Those guys are complete idiots with no regard for others.
Unbelievable. How many times did that guy shoot and still not hit anything?
Definately!
Some people hunt drunk and/or high. Hunting is the high for me. And he was pop shotting into the group after he fired in the direction of a human. Probably injured some deer and thankfully he didn't injure or kill Aaron. That was craaaazzy!!!
Yea, someone that hunts like that should lose their hunting license for 2-3 years
Edward Alsup1971 hell I ain’t no marksmen but I can shoot better than him.
That pterodactyl screech is about like when I did a coyote call when I was 9 and got a response. My dad was confused and impressed.
When Zach jumped at that doe in the original episode, I about fell out of my chair laughing so hard! Keep up the good work guys!
I put up a decoy deer archery target behind my barn complete with antlers to sight my bow in and practice on. Left it set up for a couple weeks until one day I saw it was destroyed and laying everywhere on the ground. Upon inspection, the ground was full of buck tracks all around. I guess he didn't like the competition. So I re assembled it and set it back up and waited. A few weeks later, I had thought nothing had messed with it, but I was wrong. Upon inspection, the hole hind quarters had huge claw marks down the ass. Big cat tried to take it down. Wish I had set a camera out on it.
Iv seen cattle with claw marks on their hind quarters. Those cats are more common than we first thought
Jake's elk bugle had me rolling😂
I have had many crazy things happening to me while hunting; hunting on a public land my first year moving to Maryland from Arizona, I saw total of 22 hunters in one morning. One guy literally walked within 15 feet away clearly knowing where I was sitting.
Another time I found a long forgotten family grave deep in middle of forest. One time while walking back to my truck in the dark, way out in middle of nowhere after hunting all day, saw a falling star stopping falling in middle of the sky, stayed in the spot for few seconds then zoomed back straight up into the sky. Not sure what I saw....
My best story is hunting my fathers land during the rut and we were walking through the brush and came out to the flat and we stopped for a water break and started talking about our next moves. And randomly a bobcat walks out, right in front of us, within 10 feet. It stared at us for 5 seconds then took off. It was so beautiful and elegant. Something I’ll remember for the rest of my life.
You guys have created a lot of great memories and I for one, appreciate you sharing them with us!
Keep on doing what you all seem to do best, providing good quality hunting and educational videos!
No better group of guys in the industry!
Looking forward to the deer hunting adventures this fall!
Stay safe,
Cubby
One time i was walking into my stand and I came across a five year old boy wondering a mile deep in our property without a compass after getting lost during a drive
Wow. I'm sure he was glad to see you!
You probably saved his life
“HEY”
Mountain lion:...
“HEY CAT”
Mountain lion: who said my name?
Honestly, some of the greatest days ever in the field I didn’t come close to what I was going after but I saw something that made the whole day unforgettable.
The "Take Cover - Opening Day on Iowa Public Land" episode was my 1st THP experience. Glad I found youall. The best channel on You Tube. Keep doing what you have been and stay safe!
Jake’s random Elk call had me crying Bahahahaha
My favorite was Zach paddling the cannoe through the ice on the river while saying how important it is to be sealthy. I can't recall the episode. Think it was 2019.
I have watched every episode of you guys since the beginning, all your videos are great!!! But this one was one of the best, great to see a group of hunting buddies having so much fun!
Warp is better man then me when that dude was aiming and shooting in his direction. I would of lost my shit 💯
I woulda got behind the tree
Yeah, dude was obviously a horrible shot!
not saying I would or wouldn't... but there might have been some return fire.. if it was me lol
I would have imediately called the Game Warden or Police.
@@Ogreslol at least some warning shots. That was crazy
Great video. You guys are really teaching all who are smart enough to listen, while still giving us great content! Keep it up
Hunting bow season in Michigan in my treestand, hot air balloon flies by me at the same exact height about 50 yds away. I didn't know what to say or think. Lol. Wild
Thanks guys for sharing the crazy stuff. You guys always look like you’re having fun. Very humble persons. Just a bunch of regular guys enjoying the outdoors!
Thanks Paul, we definitely enjoy the adventure!
Lived in nebraska my whole life and never seen a mountain lion. Pretty cool.
Yep, may never encounter a mountain lion like that again. Pretty rare sighting.
The elk bulging back was my favorite.
Enjoyed. Love to see you add bloopers (few secomds) at end of shows once in a great while. Thanks guys.
Good idea, thanks Joshua!
I've been shot at (3 shots from one guy!!) while wearing a full orange suit after a storm dropped 4 inches snow the night before. But....the craziest thing was to see a cow explode while hunting. After cleaning out my pronghorn, I had look around to see if my family was headed back towards me or not. I then looked over a little hill close by and saw a dead cow maybe a quarter mile away. Not uncommon for Wyoming, but about two seconds later he just exploded. I've not been to war or anything close to it, but that is what I imagine happens when a grenade or some sort of explosive goes off.....stuff is everywhere and you cannot tell what is what. I can't possibly describe the wave of smells that hit me within seconds but I assure you my stomach was empty afterwards. THP you guys rock!
Random exploding cow, now that is crazy! I'm sure the smell was unbearable!
So glad to see you guys again, love watching your videos
“We actually got ice, got confidence we can get in quietly.” Thought the same last year and broke through right under a tree with a dozen turkeys roosted, what a morning it was.
About 30 years ago turkey hunting deep into public land in Pa. my Dad and I sat on a log about 15 yards off a logging road . It was before sunrise so it was dark. Little did we know another hunter decided to walk in on the same logging road and as he got close to our spot (we did not see him ) my Dad decides to try out his new coyote mouth call. He screamed like a little girl and sh#t his pants. He said he thought it was a Sasquatch . Lucky we didn’t get shot!!!
When you guys were scouting (last season?) and Zach takes off running after a doe, who even thinks of doing that? Priceless!
Serious hunters that don't take themselves to seriously... Dig it.
I am pretty much obsessed with this channel. Absolutely awesome content. I always learn somethi g when i watch these guys.
Love this montage. Those are some pretty awesome clips. Thanks for sharing
Awesome video, guys. Some really funny, and really scary, stuff. The bugle at the end was priceless. Lol
My favorite all time was Zach encountering that giant chasing a doe in the dark grunting non stop. And all Zach could do was listen and watch from the canoe. It was amazing
For sure, that was an awesome hunt.
Deer Tour 2018, Ep35 If any of you haven’t seen it, it’s a MUST watch!!!!
It's awesome to see you guys with 251K subscribers right now. This time last year it was around 34K or so i believe. Watched all your videos and it literally added excitement to my season. Last year was the most fun i've had hunting and a lot of it was due to tips i tried out from watching your videos. Keep it up and have a safe and successful season!
I really like what y’all are doing. Keep up the great work
Lol omg literally laughed out loud at Jake's bugle. Forgot about that one!! Great stuff
Ted was good I thought guys. doin the best you can with what you got where your at. Love the videos, Thanks for the time guys.
The kayak and rope at the 7:00 mark reminds me of the Missouri boat ride from Outlaw Josey Whales!
One of my favorite movies!
That was freaking hilarious with the elk bugle. Great video appreciate what you guys do.
Wow that 2nd one was crazy. You kept a calm head considering all of that.
Awesome video ! Thanks guys
This one is funny guys!! Good recap!
My first year bowhunting my dad set me up in a brush pile on the ground. Had a very large black bear walk within 10 yards of me. I was so scared I didn't dare move to draw my bow. Pretty rare sight for Western NY.
Great video love the funny ones 👊🏻
Bow season opens August! Gettin pumped with your vids!
That lion encounter was awesome
These are awesome! Truly entertaining!
That bugle sounded like a 300# hog stuck in a fence 😆 but it worked! Great video!
I almost got run over by a yearling doe last year. I was going to get in front of a blow down to use as back cover. I took a step around it and I had a brown streak come straight at me and veer off 5 feet away. We scared the crap out of each other
Man I love you guys channel, and your guys success. I've learned alot watching you guys. I hunt public and private land here in East TN. I've never seen the quality of deer you guys do! I'll keep pushing, and trying new tactics to better my success. If you guys ever do a drawing for a tag along hunt hopefully I can get in on it! Would be awesome to do a hunt with you all!
Hands-down the best hunting channel on UA-cam.
Finsihed up sighting in my bow today ready for deer season 2020
Greetings from PA! I hunt and film public ground in the north central part of the state. You guys sure have had some crazy moments on camera! Keep up the goo work!
I wish y’all would come down to Scheffield WMA in Paulding county Georgia this year. It’s been bow only since the 90’s and there are some good deer on it. I’d like to see y’all dissect it.
You guys have the best hunting show on UA-cam. A total program, keep up the hard work guys.
Awesome vid Aaron glad ya didnt take a bullet you are full of knowledge that needs to keep being spread!!
That clip of the guy shooting at those deer is right in line with all the public land horror stories I've heard. Sounds like it can be nuckin' futs out there
Screw ups are the best.... keeps you in check. You guys gotta have fun! I’ve seen every episode since u became interns at MW. Takes me back when I was y’all s age so fun to see all of you grow. So much fun to live thru all of you!Love every episode!keeps me young! I’m from your fathers age when men were men! keep it up! Can’t wait for deer tour! Face paint and ghillies!! Heavy foc! U guys are at the pinnacle!keep out of sponsorships and keep keeping it real! You are better than the sell outs that ruined the industry looking for the dollar. That’s saying a lot! Don’t change and let Myndi run the show like she always does . THP forever!
Love y’all’s videos! I hunt public in Florida cause that’s all I got. Sneaking up on a mountain lion is crazy!!! Keep doing what y’all do. Come to the south and get some gators and cottonmouths! You will question crossing a swamp down here LOL 😂! Love y’all’s videos and what y’all are doing. Please keep it up brothers. Best of luck to all your future endeavors!
The fact the guy shot six times at a deer means he shouldn’t be hunting I was taught one shot to kill if you can’t make that shot don’t waste your time
Same the only time I shot at a deer twice was a buck that didn't run more than ten feet my first shot hit a fence I could not see in my scope that was right in front of me
If its standing still I'll shoot a few times but if it starts moving then I'm done because that's how you lose focus and kill someone
Wow...just f'ing WOW. You couldn't buy those experiences from me for 5 billion dollars (hm...ok, maybe 5), but jeez guys! All of that was PRICELESS! Made me so jealous, especially the shot at the end of all you guys sitting around the table sharing those experiences together. I hope y'all know how unimaginably fortunate (well earned, btw) yall are.
That elk screech was amazing! Literally lol!
Jake is hilarious! Thanks for sharing!
Awesome guys! How did I miss the water hole tip!!!!? Great stuff
I hope y'all realize how blessed you are!!! I'm sure you do!!! Fantastic video boys🤟🤟🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I'm getting with t-shirt printer and making up some shirts that have "More Ted Miller" on front!
Dig both Teds!
Man I would love to meet you folks year 3 following you folks and I tell yea what bone collector don’t have anything on THP !!! Thank you guys for all you do and I’m right there with you when it comes to the Fred Bear Way!!!!! Best of luck this season !!!
This is Great material. How come you seem so serious when you were with midwest whitetail? LOVE THP
When turkey hunting, my 13 year old daughter fell in the creek!🤣
Lol
Rip
You just cant make this stuff up! Love the video.
OMG! That was not only scary as hell but funny as well.
Counting down the days! Lord let the summer end !!!!
Those were all good and funny! I really liked the mountain lion footage. Those guys did good! The gun range scene was just plain on the tense side. I hope they fixed that range. Jake’s elk call was hilarious but it worked!
The elk call had me dying😂
Going to public land in Nebraska this year. Hopefully see you guys.
This year is going to be nice. I managed to drawn for one if the limited hunting quota permits here in FL.
My favorite part by far “It’s probably just a dead doe “ Lol and it’s a grown mountain lion/cougar.Lol Only can imagine what it would have been like walking up on ole kitty 😅
i only hunt public land as of now. and man is it an adventure hunting a new forest for the first few years. Wouldn’t trade public land hunting for anything!
"Got confidence to sneak up in here quietly" *SPLASH* 😂😂
Ready for 2020 deer hunting season.
Strangest thing that happened to me was when I shot a velvet racked 10 point in Wisconsin.... on Thanksgiving!!!! Poor guy never had any danglers.... he had a weeny but no danglers🤷♂️
@@ddbronco1873 cactus buck, that's awesome, I had one on my camera a couple years ago, they are really cool and pretty rare
@@ddbronco1873 killed one like that here in Texas in 15 had two yearlings with him. I figured he was baby sitting. Not much good for anything else.
Glad you show footage of running into other hunters. Realistic experience hunting.
i can’t wait, seasons so close
The craziest thing I’ve ever seen was when I was spring turkey hunting. It was youth season and we were evening hunting. There were 2 hen s about 200 yards out and they started fighting. While they were fighting one of the hens went into full strut. The other hen went into half. It was amazing to watch in person.
Looking forward to your 2020 season
My crazy story happened on my buddies deer lease near Whichita falls Texas. Last day of gun season early in the morning we were hunting the far back stand on the edge of the property. I was looking thru the binoculars and the game warden walked in my line of sight on the neighbors property behind the feeder. He never came up to us but what was crazy was for him to get to the rural spot, he had to have been walking in the dark for 2 hours solo without a flashlight..
Second clip. What a freaking gong show. I'm so lucky to live where I can hunt an area all to myself.
I'm still waiting for Aaron's annual flyfishing video!
I actually laughed out loud, sorry, falling through the ice🤣
I think u are a very experienced hunter and know much of what your doing.
