I have no problem with hunting. And it's pretty obvious that you were going for a quick, effective kill-shot here. But I must say, my heart really went out to this elk, because it was incredibly apparent that this dude very much wanted to live. A very raw and real video.
Totally agree. I've hunted all my life, that bull had a strong will to live. I saw this once with a young mulie buck. I would probably quit hunting if all kills were that painful to watch. And congratulations on a great bow kill on an awesome Bull
Hunting is a must. The North American Elk Foundation is a hunter/ conservationist organization that has greatly enlarged the elks range across North America.
I am a hunter but that was actually hard to watch. Congrats on a nice bull but man I hate it when they die where I can see. That bull did not want to die. Sorry for being a Debbie downer but that one was sad
Agree and me too. It's reality when hunting but yeah tough one to watch for me as well.I didn't make it through the whole clip. Both shots looked good and they re tough animals. Nice bull for sure.
Ya i agree. I definitely wouldn’t have posted that. Not cool. Ive killed over 30 bulls with my bow and ive never seen em suffer quite like that. Definitely doesn’t help the bowhunters cause for all the fuckin animal lovers out there.
At that range I would have gotten a bit closer and put a third arrow in the pump house just to speed things up. As a guide, I know how tough elk are, but waiting minutes for him to die when your right there and in range- not cool. Great bull though!
I am a big bow hunter and have been chasing elk for a handful of years now. Taking somethings life is nothing to joke about. Like other have posted, BE RESPECTFUL of the animal you were lucky enough to harvest. Great shot placement and nice bull. However, the commentary should have edited. Be mindful of the impact of what you post, this video is not helpful to the bow hunting world.
I have guided big game for many,many years i havenever witnessed this ,this elk suffered way beyond it's reason too,how can a true blue hunter stand by and watch an animal suffer like this elk did.this is what give's bow hunting a nasty name.
You may get some negative feedback on here about the video, but the reality is... you made a perfect shot with your first arrow. The second arrow was an insurance shot. Both were lethal and would have killed the bull. The unpredictability of each elk is something that simply can not be predetermined. Some have a stronger will to survive than others. This fine bull was one of those that happens to be a fighter. Well done. Congratulations on an incredible bull. I say, your video is real and death absolutely is a real part of the hunt. To forget about death and the kill is to ignore one critical component of hunting. Thank you for sharing.
@@russgaartexastrainingandbo949 you clearly do NOT know what you’re talking about. The first shot was on the money. It was NOT too far back, it wasn’t back at all (the proof is in the blood coming out of the bulls mouth - thus confirming it being a lung shot). That arrow from the first shot was perfectly placed and was 100% lethal. Meaning, out of 100 elk hit in that same spot with that same shot, 100 elk would die. You may need to take a closer look at and try to understand more - the anatomy of elk. That would be my suggestion.
No! Don't give this gut any credit! He had ample amount of time to put a 3rd arrow into that Bull and keep ot from experiencing all that pain and agony!! The 1st shot was just a little too far in front of the kill shot. I've made the same bad shot, but I delivered another shot, right away to put the animal down as soon as possible!! This guy & his fudge packing buddy! Just sat there and giggled while they watched an animal suffer in excruciating pain. 🤨🤡
Am glad you have shown the whole thing here ,taking the life of an animal is not for the faint-hearted , this is reality ,this happens often but rarely seen on hunts , thanks for sharing.......
@Indiana - Trapper meat head, thats innovative you fat slob. Ive forgotten more about killing than youll ever know. Im not too bad with my hands only bitches like you start out a retort with a childish insult. These idiots on this video make hunting look bad, its why we lose support from the public and also the type of thing that leads to the loss of gun rights and other trigger fired weapons, that includes modern archery.
@@russgaartexastrainingandbo949 you sound dumb as fuck. You obviously have never hunted if you think every shots gon be a perfect drop shot. You fuckin idiot go tickle ur taint or sum bc obviously u ain’t made for hunting.
Realize I’m kinda late to the discussion but I have some thoughts on the subject. To not show, understand or appreciate the process that is to kill an animal, is to disgrace not only the animal and the sustenance it provides, but also the art of hunting. I applaud you for not editing the last moments out. What many fail to realize is the fact that these animals live enormously more enjoyable lives than the animals most of us eat on a daily basis. If you’re going to talk about inhumane then that is the place to start. This is for a fact the most humane and efficient way to harvest an animal. These animals aren’t raised for slaughter which is exactly why taking them down is considered a great feat. Studies have also shown, that animals like elk has way less nerve endings than humans. An arrow entering it’s lungs is something the elk would only feel as a small pinch. The elk is not in pain afterwards either, you can see the way the elk still doesn’t understand what is happening when he attempts to spit and sneeze out the blood that his mouth suddenly is filled with. The animal had a stressless and quick death, which is much more than I can say for most farm-animals, in fact, that’s more than I can say for most humans. In addition I feel it is only fitting to show the whole process when you’re hunting with a bow. A poorly placed arrow can lead to a slow death in which the animal can walk a great distance before dying. Therefore I feel a comfort seeing the animal fall so soon after being hit. Congrats on downing and harvesting this magnificent animal. It was truly a masterful shot.
I’m 100% for bow hunting as an avid bow hunter myself. However, I believe you should’ve left out the last few minutes. Either way congrats on a nice bull.
@@greggreen6636 yes there are certain things I personally don't want to see or watch! Taking an animal life is a humbling experience, and i take it seriously, but i know that when that trigger is pulled this is what is going to happen. And yhat is why i strive for optimum shot placement to make it as ethical as it can be, it sucks to watch but it personally makes me better imho. Merry Christmas Greg stay safe.
@@dandybuckler2669 dipshit use common sense, a lot of people are against bow hunting so why fuel their fire with the last couple of minutes. I accept it happens never said it doesn’t, but why show it.
Great bull. I probably would have cut the part out showing him fighting for life, just because we have enough people fighting us as hunters and trying to make it harder for us BUT that being said, great shot, great bull.
First and foremost congratulations on a great bull. As a big game hunter, we all know how difficult it can be to take down these giants, however I don’t think showing the animal fighting death helps any of our causes in the public sector. My recommendation is to take the video off-line. Either way nice bull.
There will always be somebody to find the reality of this helpful, hunting isn't for everybody. One thing I do know is that there will always be people that whine for just about anything, especially when they don't understand it. Ultimately the only thing that should matter is if it was in season and if he had the right tag. Everything else is just opinion. Not just anybody can be out hunting Elk nor does anybody want to because it is not easy, I see no foul in this video. There is no foul in showing people the truth. What a weak society we have become that something that can easily be clicked passed has to get negativity. Don't tell people what to do, just skip the video if you don't want to see it.
@@nynemili as you were telling him what to do you missed the point, its bad for us who want to hunt, it was a high and back shot missing almos all the vital organs causing a messy slow bleed out while they laugh and giggle, these are not ethical hunters, i know you dont want to push ananimal after a shot but there was no talk of cleaning this kill up just “fuck yeah look at all that blood”. i just hope they packed out their empty Natural Light cans.
@@russgaartexastrainingandbo949 I don't disagree with you about them celebrating didn't really look good, but if I may... That's hunting. Not every shot will be perfect, even with a rifle. Yes they could have cleaned it up I don't disagree, but you also could've read the message and moved on. Sorry your feelings got hurt. Even with all of your complaints, I still see no foul if it was tagged in season. I'll have a look at your archery elk hunt videos so I can know exactly how to do it right and ethically. Do I need to have a stick up my ass like you? Oh and is there a script I need to read from to not hurt your feelings when filming a hunt also? I'd hate to enjoy my hunt.....🙄. Just tell me how to do everything. I hate thinking for myself.
@@russgaartexastrainingandbo949 I have read your comments posted throughout this feed. It is apparent that you don't have an education in arrow placement, understand elk anatomy, and/or have watched the video close enough to see where the first arrow hit the bull. Maybe you are just a troll...I don't know. Regardless this bull died quickly, he just died in view of the camera. He did however continue to fight for his life until his last breath. Which by the was was hampered due to the double lung shot.
Very Nice Bull, the taking if a life is a solemn thing. My heart always goes out to the animal. Loved all the hunts shared wih friends and family over the last 50+ years, love the meat, no joy in the killing. Looking forward to next years elk adventures.
For those who said they would rather not watch the animal die in sight then my question is why hunt, in my past years of hunting both rifle and bow I would much rather have them go down in sight where I can see them so I can retrieve the animal I have shot so it doesn't go to waste, and if you want to be negative then please dont say anything it's a part of hunting and some animals have more strength and will to live than other... and to those who made this video amazing job and what a nice bull congrats on that achievement and I look forward to future content... great vid
Can I please give you some advice? But first nice bull. You may not be looking for any type of partnerships with companies right now, I hope not anyway, but if you are, THIS IS NOT A VIDEO I WOULD HAVE ON MY CHANNEL. 1. your language; when the companies that say yes to you on partnerships, and then see this, they leave faster than they showed up for you. 2. When that bull was clearly not going to be able to go anywhere, instead of sitting there, you should have done all you could to hit lung. Yes you might have clipped back lungs but that dark blood means liver more than lung. That bull literally went through hell for you. You can do what you want but if this had been my hunt it would have never made my channel.
Agreed, great shot placement,both.Hard to watch,but educational,these critters are tough.Really hard to watch,really tough.You should have edited out the sound after the second shot,with a voiceover.Congrats.
I am also a bow hunter but I certainly don’t sit around getting my jollies watching a bull suffer.. we’re u out of arrows or just negligent in the fact he needed another ?
Mark Crawford stop being such a ninny.. that bull was dead on his feet from the moment that first arrow hit him..!! These guys were pumped about a long hard hunt no doubt and were living the moment.. you are not much of a bow hunter if you have never fist pumped and said things you dont even remember!! Holier than thou BS.. that would be most guys response to shooting such a great bull..
@@kevinlong1104 no it wouldn’t!! To each their own! I’ve killed A LOT of elk, I enjoy hunting, but I have never gotten off watching a bull suffer!!! I would have been damn excited after it was all said and done, but while he’s choking on his own blood gasping for air, laughing and getting off on it, NO!!! It’s not “Most” people’s reaction!! Like I said though….. to each their own!!
Most of us are very insulated from the harshness of death. As stomach churning as this is to watch, the alternative of being violently disembowelled by wolves or a bear would be far worse and likely take even longer.
Beautiful bull fellas..... no tracking involved for that guy! Tough to bleed out, but I've seen animals gunshot that take 3,4,5 rounds to kill & that ain't pretty to watch either!!! Lots of meat! Nice mount!
Beautiful beastie, didn’t help to show the “disturbing “ fight with death. A close up and appreciation after would have been better. Also , no need to cuss .
Sometimes they go down in seconds sometimes it takes longer. Congrats on a monster bull! Way to try the second shot you did your part. Whether the animal runs out of sight and dies or dies on camera, death is death and never is a pretty thing. What is pretty, is a clean kill, and a freezer full of the best meat in the world. Congrats guys!
I just got home from an elk hunt, I tell everyone the story up to the shot and leave the after the shot part of the story out, maybe videos would be beneficial the same way. Hunting isn’t a right, it’s a privilege that many want to take away, don’t give them ammo. Congrats on putting food on the table.
If we have no right to that which God gave us, then what do we have a right to? It's in no way a privilege except where the State has usurped it as such.
I disagree what people are saying you can’t help that the bull had a lot of life in him you made 2 great shots I don’t think you did anything wrong. Great bull
Hunting is an inheritance from my ancestors that I don't give up. A quick death is an act of respect for the animal, respect for hunting is necessary. This form of hunting is not deadly, it brings a slow death to the animal.
Great kill. I'm sure it will be tough to watch for some but this is a reality of bow hunting. You can watch dozens of videos of elk or deer being shot rarely do you get to see all of it like this. My guess is many suffer quite a bit. Reality of bow hunting. They just don't all drop quickly.
I’m a big hunter but this was a little hard to watch. Good elk but I wish it would have been a more effective shot. It was just sad too see it try so hard to survive but at least u didn’t wound him and never find him. All in all great elk buddy
Thats as real as it gets and that's a slammer bull. If you wanna go hunt this what you sign up for. It's not glamorous, if more people showed the reality of hunting instead of the glamorized TV version, We'd have more serious hunters out there and less bros trying to be like Cam Haynes.
Congrats on the nice bull, I don’t like how most of the video was the bull suffering, I hunt and understand that it is gonna happen sometimes but posting a video of it suffering seems kinda wrong.
The death of any animal is part of what we do as hunters. We have to accept it is part of providing food for our family. Good advice given here in this thread. Edit the video or take it down! Showing the bull struggle and die is not what anyone needs to see.
I like hunting as a proffesion for regulating the system to keep the nature in harmony. But I am always agains the silent bow/crossbow weapons. Hunting only for fun I will never like. Btw this was really nice Lung shot. But good one like that is really rare, and thats the reason why I bow huntery dont like (I saw lot of badly injured animals).... historical ways of hunting must stay in history.... And btw I dont like to keep the poor creature dying for a longer time.
The shot we'll placed but ya I would have cut out the last bit of the old monarch fighting it. As a hunter myself, I know what happens, you know what happens ,but this could have been shortened for the youbtube surfers. Congratulations on the harvest.
Their obvious arousal to the sight of the Buck going down is a clear sign of who doesn't respect the concept of of Hunt and everything that comes with it.
Pretty hard footage man! I have killed alot of animals and it always hurts to see them die for sure. Definitely better when they die just around the corner
Everyone keeps saying cut that part out. Well that's part of it. The ethical move would have been keep shooting. Great bull guys, just unload the quiver next time.
you had plenty of time to go put another arrow in him and speed up the process , this wasnt very cool. yes this happens in the elk woods , but if you have a chance to make it quicker , then do it .
I have no problem with hunting. And it's pretty obvious that you were going for a quick, effective kill-shot here. But I must say, my heart really went out to this elk, because it was incredibly apparent that this dude very much wanted to live. A very raw and real video.
I'm with you on that.
Sufre demasiado eso no está bien espero que estos payasos no son cazadores solo lo asen por diversión creo 😡
A tough animal. An instant kill is preferable but seldom realistic.

Какая грациозность,сила,бесстрашие,но в одно и то же время глупость оленя, бьётся из за всех сил......💥💥💥
I would've let another fly if there wasn't a private boundary nearby. If you spook him at this stage, I'd think he might die faster.
I hunt but this was hard to watch. Great animal and nice shot I just hate it when a good shot like that doesn’t do it’s job quickly. 😔
That bull is a beast. An deserves the utmost respect for fighting that great shot so long.
Cám ơn bạn đã chia sẽ cho nhau nhé chúc mừng bạn thành công nhé ❤💗🎆❤💗
Ol fella didn't want to give up did he.
Nice guy shot! The first shot was enough
congrats on a great shot and great video not to many time do we ever get to see the after math of a perfectly placed arrow
That's an awesome bull but we did have to see it all on video.
Nice shot 👌.
Nice elk man, screw the haters. Beautiful shot and thanks for sharing
Monstros pervesos.
U should have sent a third arrow
Nice bull
ELK ARE AMAZING FOUGHT TILL THE LIFE LEFT HIM. THANK YOU GOD FOR LUCK
Good video. Great kill. Congrats.
I,m a hunter myself. Bow and arrow are not sufficient for animals of that size. The only answer is using a sufficiently powerful rifle.
Tremendous heart target shot
I disagree what people are saying you can’t help that the bull had a lot of life in him you made 2 great shots I don’t think you did anything wrong. Great bull
Buen video
why does it bleed from the mouth?
Initial response is to say kill it quicker, but the shots were good it looked like. I guess this guy was a fighter to the end.
Elk are so freaking tough!
That bull was a fighter.
When they get a head rush you know it's over.
Hunting is an inheritance from my ancestors that I don't give up.
A quick death is an act of respect for the animal, respect for hunting is necessary.
This form of hunting is not deadly, it brings a slow death to the animal.
Great kill. I'm sure it will be tough to watch for some but this is a reality of bow hunting. You can watch dozens of videos of elk or deer being shot rarely do you get to see all of it like this. My guess is many suffer quite a bit. Reality of bow hunting. They just don't all drop quickly.
Your info is very important.
I’m a big hunter but this was a little hard to watch. Good elk but I wish it would have been a more effective shot. It was just sad too see it try so hard to survive but at least u didn’t wound him and never find him. All in all great elk buddy
Well done.thats how we want it everytime
Damn ,for elk I would get something more powerful, maybe ravin crossbow or something
Greetings listening bosq steady
I couldn’t finish watching it.
Thats as real as it gets and that's a slammer bull. If you wanna go hunt this what you sign up for. It's not glamorous, if more people showed the reality of hunting instead of the glamorized TV version, We'd have more serious hunters out there and less bros trying to be like Cam Haynes.
got damn that bull is a fighter he was not going down any soon
Congrats on the nice bull, I don’t like how most of the video was the bull suffering, I hunt and understand that it is gonna happen sometimes but posting a video of it suffering seems kinda wrong.
I like hunting but it is painful to watch such a beatiful animal suffer
👍👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹🌹👏👏👏👏
The death of any animal is part of what we do as hunters. We have to accept it is part of providing food for our family. Good advice given here in this thread. Edit the video or take it down! Showing the bull struggle and die is not what anyone needs to see.
А нельзя быстрей как нибудь его добить, чтоб не мучалось животное. Вас этому в Америке не учат. Изверги вы, а не охотники...
I like hunting as a proffesion for regulating the system to keep the nature in harmony. But I am always agains the silent bow/crossbow weapons. Hunting only for fun I will never like.
Btw this was really nice Lung shot. But good one like that is really rare, and thats the reason why I bow huntery dont like (I saw lot of badly injured animals).... historical ways of hunting must stay in history.... And btw I dont like to keep the poor creature dying for a longer time.
The shot we'll placed but ya I would have cut out the last bit of the old monarch fighting it. As a hunter myself, I know what happens, you know what happens ,but this could have been shortened for the youbtube surfers. Congratulations on the harvest.
Nice shot
Their obvious arousal to the sight of the Buck going down is a clear sign of who doesn't respect the concept of of Hunt and everything that comes with it.
For one thats now a buck lmao two its obvious excitement call it what you want... ur a turd
@@DJWooLee55 are you done painting your toe nails young lady boy?
@@DJWooLee55 just as much of a b*tch. Hush now lil fairydust boy
@@davidmena6638 you’re the one clutching your pearls about a dead animal. Go off though baby boy.
Nice bull but you should have left the end of the video out.
👌 👌 👌 👌 🇵🇱 🇵🇱 🇵🇱 🇵🇱
That was to slow fellas. Should have put another one more forward in the vitals.
Não tem nada contra caçar, mais o cara tá as gargalhadas da agonia do animal invés de dar um fim rápido no sofrimento do inocente
Pretty hard footage man!
I have killed alot of animals and it always hurts to see them die for sure. Definitely better when they die just around the corner
Everyone keeps saying cut that part out. Well that's part of it. The ethical move would have been keep shooting. Great bull guys, just unload the quiver next time.
Pretty brutal kill.
Dang that was hard to watch.
Eu sou caçador mas nao faço os bichos sofrerem desta forma ate da pena pele menos comprava uma pistola para abater o animal
Congratulations, but where is the respect?
you had plenty of time to go put another arrow in him and speed up the process , this wasnt very cool. yes this happens in the elk woods , but if you have a chance to make it quicker , then do it .
Hunting the only sport where the other team has no clue it’s playing
Great bull and nice shot, but the last 3 minutes should have never made youtube.
Ein langes Leiden -ein langer Todeskampf.
Deswegen bin ich als Jaeger gegen die Jagd mit Pfeil und Bogen.
It was a sad story!
most of the time the bull run's, and you dont see this fight for life, when you o track him down notice ground torn up, same ending just not seen
Kechulada de hanimal
Good hunt guys.but I would of stopped vedioing when he when down.
