Bowhunting Big West Virginia MOUNTAIN BUCKS - Spot and Stalk Whitetail Hunting

In November 2021, I went down to southern West Virginia to learn the spot and stalk whitetail hunting game from one of the best, Josh Ilderton of ‪@TheUntamedHunt‬ . There was no shortage of bucks or action during this bow hunt in the coal country of the Appalachian Mountains. Many highs, lows, and lessons were learned during this hunt. I've never been someone to hide the good, bad, and ugly to help others learn from my successes and mistakes - this trip had a little of all of it.

We have great deer in WV but you better understand thermals well if you are after the mature bucks. It is a challenge but very rewarding when it all comes together. Great video looking forward to you hunt this year in WV

[@bassamaticfpv4354]

Never been to West Virginia, didn’t know it has open hills like the 1st part of video

[@outdoorlife9410]

Hunting several times in WV and strip mine hunting is a different experience. It's more chasing than hunting which is a little different than tree hunting. Still fun tho

[@jamesm611]

Love the videos man. Thank you for all the tips and tricks you share with us. Man. Hope you keep the mustache. Looks really good on ya brother

[@joshtrauger3088]

Looks like a great time. Takes confidence to own up to and show the less then optimal outcomes. It's probably the hardest part of hunting and I think it's important for inexperienced hunters to see experienced, successful hunter going through it. Great video as always brother.

[@ZenBehindThePeep]

Getting after it again Beau! Sorry you couldn't recover. Still a good hunt. I suspect you may see that deer again.

[@naturescoper3936]

That stinks when it happens but it definitely happens to us all .Get him next time your down there !

[@Pwrcritter]

Grew up hunting such areas in Wv. Looks like out west. Good footage.

[@WerthersOriginal131]

[@adamwingler7151]
