Beautiful animal Gus Congemi, as well as a beautiful shot.

Mostly just a bunch of hypocrites that have no idea how the world really works. Keep the vid's coming, I'll always watch.
For the non-hunters and the anti-hunters: "A ton of blood" means that it was hit in the vital organs and humanely harvested. As an experienced hunter myself, I can assure you that the pain this bear went through was minimal. Because we are omnivores, it is necessary that other animals are killed for our sustenance. This hunter was very ethical in his choice of shot, as evidenced by his relief that there was a lot of blood immediately seen and in his decision not to shoot the first bear, even though an archer of his capabilities could easily make the shot. He said specifically he "wanted a double-lung shot," and he got it. He was also being ethical in that he chose to take the responsibility of harvesting a wild animal himself rather than relying solely on others' industrially-raised animals. You don't have to understand exactly why people choose to hunt, but a little understanding and respect of those who do makes you more informed on the subject and will make your opinions have a little more weight.
Ive watched this so many times. Idk if theres more footage but this video should be 40 minutes long. Id love to see the entire hunt laid out better. Great video though
I agree but the bear I shot had a 29 9/16" skull #1 SCI at the time. he was 19.5 years old. He might not have had the same body size as the first bear but I doubt the first bear had a larger skull. Not that it mattered, I was shooting any mature bear that gave me a clean bow shot on but skull size are how bears are scored
Loved the hunt Gus. When that bear stood up, I would have freaked and I've been to Iraq. Hate people don't understand conservation, killing boar males actually helps the population. I quit gun hunting a few years ago, the bow definitely evens the playing field. Good huntin' to ya!
That was so cool. I shot a medium sized brown bear just south of Katmai national monument in the early 80's. We watched it cross the river coming right at us. I was knelt on a bear trail that lead right where he was crossing the river. Instead of taking the trail, she walked up a small creek that was just to my right a couple of feet. I twisted as far as I could to get a shot. When I looked through the scope, all I could see was blurry hair. I sighted down the barrel and hit her high in the shoulder because the angle was very similar to this shot. To our surprise, she went down and never got up from that spot. We estimated the shot at about 10' from the muzzle of my 7MM mag. Needless to say, my heart was racing when it was all over. Thanks for the video and bringing back memories.
Wow sounds like a great hunt. It's very hard to explain the exhilaration experienced and the meaning of a hunt like this to someone who hasn't been there. Thanks for sharing your story
It always amazes me that videos titled about hunting, killing, etc are watched by people opposed to hunting. Why watch it if you're going to be upset by it? Hunting is a way of life and a God given right. I hunt for food and I can tell you that when I kill an animal I use every part of it and the animals I kill have lived a much better life than farmed animals and have died a much more humane way. If you don't believe it, punch in slaughter house floor on youtube. Hunters are the main contributors to conservation, how many of you who are opposed to hunting contribute to conservation in any way at all?
Tony,I agree with your comments....I prefer to hunt for my own food ...fuck these idiots....most have probably never set foot in true wilderness....Sit their asses down and watch these videos just to bitch
+ Steven Branson I respect and even admire a person who hunts for their own food. I also appreciate the thrill of the hunt, it's in our DNA. Hunting just for the sport of it is what I'm against.
what a great hunt! The stupid people need to hush and take your advice. WHAT DO THEY DO FOR CONSERVATION OTHER THAN COMPLAIN? hunters ARE the world of conservation right?! I, as woman hunt to feed my family, only my father and husband say bear is an awesome meat to fill a freezer. I am not THAT good with a bow (like Dad) or a rifle ( like the husband) to shoot something that dangerous, but I have been saving for their trip for many years, so they can go and look forward to trying it. (we havent bought domestic meat in many years thanks to hunting and the grocerie bills are next to nothing because we dont have a meat bill.
Thanks for the comment. I started hunting at 31 years old the first time I tasted venison. It’s been liberating to learn to hunt your own food. I eat meat and I would be a hypocrite if I only ate meat someone else killed.
Excellent patience, looks like a great shot from the blood. You can see it coming out just after he growls and the camera shifts to him fleeing. What a bear.
Great hunt Gus. I have hunted the muskeg and just the ground and the brush is exhausting. That first boar had some head on him and great shot on that second boar. You did it the hard way. Congrats and be safe. keep the shiney side up rubber side down.
im not a big hunter myself, but I know for a fact that a male bear that size will kill all the new cubs i the area, for miles and miles. Hunting an old male bear, is weirdly the best way to preserve a bearhabitat.
@Freecheese It is not a ridiculous statement.Alaska has a brown bear hunt on Kodiak island.They issue so many permits and the hunters are allowed to kill the big males.You are only allowed to take the skin and leave the meat behind for the other animals.There was a whole series about it.It is because the older bigger bears on the island will kill the younger ones.
You are not smart. Killing the old bear would allow for over population. They have a perfect natural balance, humans are throwing it off by hunting for the big one. 100 years ago tuna caught were way bigger, the big tuna did not get to reproduce so tuna caught now a days are smaller. Same thing is happening with other animals. No balance.
Thnx Gus, whats the heading on the deer shot, im sure the camera does distort the distance, but still mighty close. Would enjoy the viewing of the direct hits....need alota charmin with ya for those close shots. Lol...thnx for the reply
So many ignorant people who know nothing about hunting or conservation commenting on here and passing judgement without educating themselves. Scary to think what else they have opinions on. I am a small teenage girl from the suburbs but I have decided that I want to look into learning to hunt. Whatever it takes. Archery in particular has caught my fancy. I like the way a bow feels. I like knowing where my food comes from, I like meat, I like nature, and I know that hunting is important to conservation and gives the animal a faster death than it would naturally have.
So as a small teenage kid from the suburbs you know everything about hunting and we should all listen to you and not have are own opinions ! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Do us a favour 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Gus, I've watched this video several times over the past year. It's one of the best I've seen. I figured I should finally make a comment and let you know how awesome I think it is. Outstanding!
David Smith Thanks David. We did this a few years ago but it has special meaning to me because my son was running the camera. He doesn't hunt so this whole experience was new to him. He still doesn't realize how rare this footage is. I'm just proud that he held his ground and got the footage, most cameramen would have run. LOL
Congrats Gus, a hunt of a lifetime and you pulled it off. I took a brownie on the peninsular two years ago with archery equipment. Those not understanding game management have flawed logic regarding harvesting animals. I suppose that will not change anytime soon. Again, congratulations.
Awesome hunter Gus! I respect you for waiting to have a "double lung shot". I don't understand all the hate for hunters by non-hunters. Oh well... Starting at about 2:00 minutes to about 2:30 is the reason why I don't hunt and perhaps the reason why you do! lol. I would just simply faint! Great footage!
+mikeworld39 It tastes like bear. LOL It's hard to describe It depends on what the bear is eating. The bear meat I have eaten has been a little greasy but very good. And I ate bear steaks on the grill not covered in sauce so I got a true taste of the meat.
Never mind the Antihunter!! They have nothing better to do than UA-camhunt hunters, that`s as far as they can come from the screen. Awesome video and respect that you waited for the good oppurtunity instead for the first one..
Really? Normally I don't really dislike hunting, but this was just unnecessary, was no reason to kill that bear, he was just trying to catch some fish and live his life.
I'm not sure how I feel about archery brown bear hunts. This guy appears to be a true sportsman, not taking the first shot and waiting for the best opportunity for a true killing shot which he took with skill. This particular bow hunt went off well, probably due to the hunter and guide's diligence. While he doesn't state how far the bear ran after being shot, I'm willing to bet it wasn't very far. There are so many videos of guys pegging an arrow into a bear only for the guide to kill it with a rifle, making the first shot with a bow nothing more than torture. That kind of thing makes me sick. Seems a little too risky to me. I think if you're going to take a bear, make sure it is done cleanly and quickly, with a powerful gun. This video is proof that it CAN be done ethically with a bow, but I feel this video showcases an exceptional hunt.
+jaystretch01 I appreciate the comment. This was my second Brown Bear hunt. I took one 4 yrs earlier at 12 yds again a broadside shot on an 8 1/2 ft bear. The bear didn't go 40 yds. This bear went about 80 yds after the shot but this bear was much bigger. This was a personal quest for me and I wanted it done on my terms. A clean kill was what I was after or I wasn't going to shoot. Thanks again for the comment.
+Live the Wild Life TV Of course man, that's a trophy to be proud of, no doubt, and I could tell that this was something you wanted to do right and that you have respect towards the animal and posses ethics----it's the guys who DON'T have ethics or respect that feed the "anti" crowd and give true sportsmen a bad rap!
What happened exactly? Where? How long and how far did it stalk you? What weapon did you have? What do you reckon would have happened if not having met the Eskimos?
Gus, I'm not a hunter myself but I've been learning more about it lately and I've been wanting to go sometime in the future. I think if hunting if is done ethically and humanely, there is nothing wrong with it and in some regions it is necessary. I will say that I don't think animals should be killed just to say you shot a huge bear with a bow and from your comments I can tell you feel the same way. My only question is what purpose did the bear serve after you killed it? Was the meat used for food? (Also, how did you get the bear out of the brush?)
The raised on Disney generation is going to bust a blood vessel. There mom will need to buy them some more yoohoo and cheese poofs just to calm them down.
Fantastic video and an awesome shot. It's good to see a hunter spot and stalk his quarry, especially something as dangerous as a bear. This is the real essence of hunting.
youtuber well why don’t you go out and tell the bears that there’s hunters around the bait. Trust me if bears had consciousness they would be hunting us down daily lmao
That's what I am talking about. Good clean harvest of a great brown bear. The nay sayers will always troll the heck out of these videos and it's best not to give into their stupidity. Don't feed them, just thank their opinion and when one comes into their backyard and eats their precious little poodle while they are eating their broccoli and all they have is the Internet to hide behind they will sing a different tune. Predator control is mandated by Congress and game laws....you know those things your ancestors probably fought and died for?? I myself applaud you on a ethical hunt and wish you the best...and for those trolls...well broccoli screams when you rip it from the ground...peace
Correct me of I'm wrong, but hunters are at the forefront of conservation. They drive the DNR studies and then the DNR issues permits on a limited basis so as to keep populations healthy. They also support local economies and help keep environmentally toxic industries i.e. mining from getting established.
I appreciate your comment Cuchulain. I took some grief from my fellow hunters over not taking that shot I felt and still feel that is a one lung shot and I didn't want to take the risk of wounding that Bear. As hunters we all have our reason for why we hunt For me there has to be some honor in harvesting my game. A one lung shot would have meant a follow up rifle shot or a slow death and that bear did not deserve to die like that. When we left the bear that stood up was still alive
I am always asked why is bear management necessary? Removing some of the older male bears is important to preserving the rest of the bear population. Watch ua-cam.com/video/Rfo233Q6aOg/v-deo.html
No doubt, sensible hunting keeps the ecological balance - but hunting with bow and arrow only means evil torture to the creature and fun for the killer! Only use big-bore rifles. That`s quick and clean.
I disagree. Any poor shot, rifle or bow, will not result in a clean kill. The amazing thing about a bow shot is the apparent absence of shock after the shot. I have had animals run and not know what had happened. They died quickly and cleanly. This bear died within minutes of my shot. It is up to the hunter to decide if he can make a clean double lung shot. If you watched this video you know I passed up a shot on a standing bear because of that very reason.
Live the Wild Life TV I hunt with dogs in the UK and personally think guns can make things to easy dogs take healthy animals but will always pick out the weakest keeping the prey population healthy... guessing hunting with a bow when the animal, especially when injured, can literally take you to pieces makes you MORE careful of your shot and swift closure to a hunt
Maybe he should have ran between me and the bear so he could have videos the impact shot for you? That's real my man, you move you die that bear was 5 yards away. I think he did an incredible job under the circumstances to get the blood pouring out if that bear. You watch too much staged outdoor tv. Go to AK and lets see your footage
@@GusCongemiOutdoors I think all he was saying was that the video, as is, did not have much entertainment value. You might as well have told us the story at the taxidermist shop.
+Vinchenzo C Not everyone is an idiot because they don't know exactly what YOU know. I was agreeing with you, but suggesting you educate the peeps and not assume people are disagreeing with you. Relax.
Great shot-great video on a magnificent creature. Sportsmen and women fund the research and conservation efforts to ensure the future of this species. Some people are happier to take the wild and the free out of the animal. Those people have no problem visiting these creatures enslaved in captivity in a metropolitan zoo. Good job my friend.....
There's plenty of other outlets for food. If you can afford a pricy bow, you ain't starving. You don't need to kill a magnificent animal to show off. Heartless fucks
And you know this because you have spent time in the Alaska bush right? Think about it, a plane drops you off on a remote lake. You are living in a tent for 2 weeks with bears all over the area. No showers, no toilet, eating freeze dried food, it rains constantly so you are never really dry. Then make a shot with a bow on an animal that can kill you. Easy right
@@soflodoug LOL If It thought I would have been able to kill the standing 100% with my bow I would have shot. This was personal for me I wanted a double lung shot or I was willing to eat my tag.
I disagree with killing for "sport" unless you are feeding a Family and you have to do it for survival. I learned to hunt and shoot since I was little and later went into law enforcement since I was 21 and have over 50 years experience. It is better to commune with nature and not upset the "balance" Native American Indians know and understand all this. Nothing goes to waste. It is also bad Karma not to pray over the "food" you have "harvested" for your "survival". Killing is Killing. I hope most of you will understand. Take care....
***** Thanks Gus! Very good answers and professional. I have considered hunting again as I used to when I was a child/teen in Texas. Nothing too serious. I am doing serious research on our Native American Ancestors and "other" American hunters have all but depleted the Buffalo. I think Bears should be protected and Boars hunted. I used to be a Fed and cross trained Fish & Wildlife. I carried a gun for over 40 years but in law enforcement. I also worked at the U.S. Mexican Border and enforced 40 agencies 400 laws, etc..I've seen a few videos with bow hunting Bears and they were allegedly within 3-6 feet? Wow ! A little too close, even for Smokey the Bear. Just wondered what the best type of bow is good for me? I am 6'3" tall large build. Special arrows? Tips? Or would you trust an old fashioned wooden bow(Indian style??) Stay safe okay ?
***** Nice ICON Michael! Cloak & Dagger stuff is my background. The biggest problem the Native American Indians had was they were LIED to and they tried to believe their could be Peace between the White American settlers. The Government has not changed very much in 200 some years. American children are NOT taught the Truth about how bad our Calvary and military acted towards the Native Americans by killing women and children and taking their "Scalps", etc...A whole "Culture" was practically wiped out for what? Railroads, Settlers, "Progress"?? I remember the story about how General Custer allowed some high ranking Indians to a "Peace" talk under a flag of truce and were all hanged or killed. ALL the alleged "Peace" Treaties were violated by our Government and Military. In other countries like Japan, the natives who are special or significant are given protected status as living historical landmarks.....PEACE !
Hunting in this form does keep the balance in a good place. There is a lot of research to determine how many can be harvested, and nor over harvested. To be in close proximity to something so big and lethal, would be communing at the apex. I hope you back up your position with money. The revenue for hunts such as this, do more to ensure wildlife thrive, than the hot air you put out. Bad for the ozone too.
wish you could have got a shot on the very first bear that stood up it was awesome, any chance you are a tugboat captain ? you look very familiar, sincerely
+David Eustache Yes that first bear was exceptional in size but I doubt he had a larger skull. Very happy with the bear I harvested. The skull was 29 6/16" thats the SCI #1 archery bear. Once you hit that 29" mark you are in another category . And no I'm not a tug boat captain, maybe I have a twin LOL
Congratulations! And yes you have an all American Badass twin LOL. Just food for thought if you know anybody that has a large cc quad runner with the luggage racks and a rifle Scabbard and all the fancy accessories and is willing to trade for a testosterone toy with a 113 cubic inch S&S Andy Baker 5 speed gearbox with a 230 millimeter rear tire with drag bars and Wide Glide and just a crazy but I would trade them
Must feel like a real man to kill a helpless, living, breathing animal with high powered technological weaponry. And for nothing more than blood lust. Try joining the Marine Corp and see how manly you are.
@@jimmyhylton9957 amen. If ya don't like it don't friggin watch it!! It's that simple!! We've gotten to a point in this country where nobody is ok with disagreeing. It's either my way or you're wrong!!! Hunting is the greatest form of conservation, PERIOD!!!
Hey Gus i'm just curious, when you guys kill a bear like this how to you get it out of there? Or is it just the photograph of you with the bear that counts as the trophy?
Elk, moose, and bears are all large animals that are hunted remotely and every piece of meat transported for consumption. Usually on the backs of the hunters in many trips over several miles. Bones and entrails are left behind and is usually close to half of the weight of the animal. There are very few or no animals that produce 800 pounds of meat. ( I saw that figure in another Comment I think)
to all the cry babies, do some research of you food supply. cruelty is an understatement when applied to the origin of foods purchased in the supermarket. cattle know what is coming when they get loaded onto trailers and unloaded at the slaughter house, the smell of death surrounds them for hours before their time comes. humans are predators, have always been and will always be in order to survive.
Yes I did. Although I differ on the sucker punch part. At 5 yards that bear can rip me to shreds before it dies. I can sugar coat what I did and say that Fish and Wildlife agencies determine how many bears need to be removed to maintain the food supply and health of the whole bear population. Or that larger boars will kill cubs so that the sows will come back into estrous and will breed again. Hell I can go on with more reasons that this is necessary but the truth is this was a rite of passage for me. To take down the largest land predator with my bow on my terms. It's dangerous, exhilarating and what man has been doing since the beginning of time. Sorry you can't understand that. Enjoy your kale. Peace
I understand, but see if you can wrap your head around this. A big misconception is that the Fish and Wildlife agencies are supported solely by tax dollars that are collected from the general public. They are funded by sportsman who pay for licenses and are taxed on the hunting and shooting products they buy. The Pittman-Robertson Act which is also known as the Federal Restoration act became law in 1937. The revenue generated from the excise tax is apportioned to state wildlife agencies for conservation efforts. That hunt cost me close to $20,000.00 and part of that money funds the agencies that protect the wildlife from poaching and uphold the game laws. So although I understand your concern for the death of this bear understand that it is very regulated and does provide some benefit for the total population of bear.
***** hunting for sport is practice for hunting for survival. Would you be able to survive if no groceries at Walmart. What about fishing? Are you against sport fishing too?
Live the Wild Life TV well said.obviously you do your home work..well researched! ! kale sandwich. lol..gross..think id rather have some grizzly summer sausage!
+GuttaSnipe of course thy didnt just leave it... most states(including alaska where this was filmed) have wanton waste laws. "A person may not waste a wild bird or wild animal that has been wounded or killed by that person while hunting. For purposes of this section, "waste" means to intentionally leave a wounded or killed animal in the field or forest without making a reasonable effort to retrieve and render it for consumption or use."
i still dont understand the logic of the anti-hunters watching these videos and then criticizing us hunters. They obviously know nothing about why we hunt and why hunting is essential for human life. If no one hunted there would be an over abundance of animals and not enough food to support the species and the over abundance of the animals would also affect our way of life. Farmers already have a hard enough time as it is to support their crops from deer and other animals, so i cant even imagine what the damage would be with an uncontrolled population. This is logic and the Antis dont even give it a thought. and then they always say, i wish that bear would kill you. so since when is an animals life worth more than a humans. i have failed to figure out why they say these things. I hunt, i will always hunt, no one will stop me. i dont care about others opinions of it, its a way of life. I do it because its all i know. Its all ill ever know. i grew up with it and i cant imagine life with out it. So all the anti-hunters reading this and about to comment spare yourself the effort of writing a senseless comment that has no factual basis and get off the video because you are hypocrite and no one cares to see your negativity. Thanks.
Always the same arguments.. earth didnt need us to regulate anything for millions of years idiot Youre just a sadistic loser you dont know anything else in life

what a great hunt! The stupid people need to hush and take your advice. WHAT DO THEY DO FOR CONSERVATION OTHER THAN COMPLAIN? hunters ARE the world of conservation right?! I, as woman hunt to feed my family, only my father and husband say bear is an awesome meat to fill a freezer. I am not THAT good with a bow (like Dad) or a rifle ( like the husband) to shoot something that dangerous, but I have been saving for their trip for many years, so they can go and look forward to trying it. (we havent bought domestic meat in many years thanks to hunting and the grocerie bills are next to nothing because we dont have a meat bill.
I bet they didn’t eat the Bear. Shoot it with a camera. Get a close up ,,, nobody EATS A BEAR that’s been eating FISH.. your a real big man..
Thanks for the comment. I started hunting at 31 years old the first time I tasted venison. It’s been liberating to learn to hunt your own food. I eat meat and I would be a hypocrite if I only ate meat someone else killed.

Excellent patience, looks like a great shot from the blood. You can see it coming out just after he growls and the camera shifts to him fleeing. What a bear.
The first bear was big!
That's why he escaped.
Well that second one is listed number three Pope & Young!
Nice hunt, nice shot, nice bear! Well filmed too.

Great hunt Gus. I have hunted the muskeg and just the ground and the brush is exhausting. That first boar had some head on him and great shot on that second boar. You did it the hard way. Congrats and be safe. keep the shiney side up rubber side down.
im not a big hunter myself, but I know for a fact that a male bear that size will kill all the new cubs i the area, for miles and miles. Hunting an old male bear, is weirdly the best way to preserve a bearhabitat.
jkken1 Ridiculous statement to support your position.
@Freecheese It is not a ridiculous statement.Alaska has a brown bear hunt on Kodiak island.They issue so many permits and the hunters are allowed to kill the big males.You are only allowed to take the skin and leave the meat behind for the other animals.There was a whole series about it.It is because the older bigger bears on the island will kill the younger ones.
Absolutely true. We are currently over run by bears. The big males kill and eat the cubs both as a food source and to bring the sow back in to heat.
I'm sure the bears survived before sport hunters came along
You are not smart. Killing the old bear would allow for over population. They have a perfect natural balance, humans are throwing it off by hunting for the big one. 100 years ago tuna caught were way bigger, the big tuna did not get to reproduce so tuna caught now a days are smaller. Same thing is happening with other animals. No balance.
Thnx Gus, whats the heading on the deer shot, im sure the camera does distort the distance, but still mighty close. Would enjoy the viewing of the direct hits....need alota charmin with ya for those close shots. Lol...thnx for the reply
So many ignorant people who know nothing about hunting or conservation commenting on here and passing judgement without educating themselves. Scary to think what else they have opinions on. I am a small teenage girl from the suburbs but I have decided that I want to look into learning to hunt. Whatever it takes. Archery in particular has caught my fancy. I like the way a bow feels. I like knowing where my food comes from, I like meat, I like nature, and I know that hunting is important to conservation and gives the animal a faster death than it would naturally have.
So as a small teenage kid from the suburbs you know everything about hunting and we should all listen to you and not have are own opinions ! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Do us a favour 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Gus, I've watched this video several times over the past year. It's one of the best I've seen. I figured I should finally make a comment and let you know how awesome I think it is. Outstanding!
David Smith Thanks David. We did this a few years ago but it has special meaning to me because my son was running the camera. He doesn't hunt so this whole experience was new to him. He still doesn't realize how rare this footage is. I'm just proud that he held his ground and got the footage, most cameramen would have run. LOL
Heard the Bear crash a minute after we shot him. Just wasn't sure if he was dead when we went to find him.
Only real dicks hurt animals
Congrats Gus, a hunt of a lifetime and you pulled it off. I took a brownie on the peninsular two years ago with archery equipment. Those not understanding game management have flawed logic regarding harvesting animals. I suppose that will not change anytime soon. Again, congratulations.
Awesome hunter Gus! I respect you for waiting to have a "double lung shot".
I don't understand all the hate for hunters by non-hunters. Oh well...
Starting at about 2:00 minutes to about 2:30 is the reason why I don't hunt and perhaps the reason why you do! lol. I would just simply faint! Great footage!
I hope you bump into a bear one day ( un armed 😉) 👍
Great video. Will share with my hunting friends in Florida as we are in the midst of harvesting black bears. Thank you.
+Karen Kirkpatrick (KayteCanDo) Thanks Karen
+Live the Wild Life TV I was wondering what does bear taste like?
+mikeworld39 It tastes like bear. LOL It's hard to describe It depends on what the bear is eating. The bear meat I have eaten has been a little greasy but very good. And I ate bear steaks on the grill not covered in sauce so I got a true taste of the meat.
Live the Wild Life TV I heard from my uncle that you have to season bear just right to truly enjoy the meat?
Live the Wild Life TV Could a white-tail deer be killed with 5.56 rifle?
Never mind the Antihunter!!
They have nothing better to do than UA-camhunt hunters, that`s as far as they can come from the screen.
Awesome video and respect that you waited for the good oppurtunity instead for the first one..
John here congratulations. Watch it tv but seen this video super love brown bears so. BIG.
Screw the haters, great bear. great hunt, great shot.
Really? Normally I don't really dislike hunting, but this was just unnecessary, was no reason to kill that bear, he was just trying to catch some fish and live his life.
Derpleton Herpson Thats what hunting is all about. Why would you pass on that class bear? Thats a bear of a lifetime.

I’m all for hunting for food ,but a Bear I’m not sure about for me there is no reason.
Velocity4000fps no haters its fucked up what if u were hunted for sport??
Crazy the newest record Boone and Crocker is “only” a nine foot bear. Obviously still huge but it just had the biggest head lol.
I'm not sure how I feel about archery brown bear hunts. This guy appears to be a true sportsman, not taking the first shot and waiting for the best opportunity for a true killing shot which he took with skill. This particular bow hunt went off well, probably due to the hunter and guide's diligence. While he doesn't state how far the bear ran after being shot, I'm willing to bet it wasn't very far.
There are so many videos of guys pegging an arrow into a bear only for the guide to kill it with a rifle, making the first shot with a bow nothing more than torture. That kind of thing makes me sick. Seems a little too risky to me. I think if you're going to take a bear, make sure it is done cleanly and quickly, with a powerful gun. This video is proof that it CAN be done ethically with a bow, but I feel this video showcases an exceptional hunt.
+jaystretch01 I appreciate the comment. This was my second Brown Bear hunt. I took one 4 yrs earlier at 12 yds again a broadside shot on an 8 1/2 ft bear. The bear didn't go 40 yds. This bear went about 80 yds after the shot but this bear was much bigger. This was a personal quest for me and I wanted it done on my terms. A clean kill was what I was after or I wasn't going to shoot. Thanks again for the comment.
+Live the Wild Life TV Of course man, that's a trophy to be proud of, no doubt, and I could tell that this was something you wanted to do right and that you have respect towards the animal and posses ethics----it's the guys who DON'T have ethics or respect that feed the "anti" crowd and give true sportsmen a bad rap!
+jaystretch01 Thanks again
what a close encounter. never hunted brown bear myself.only black bear.congrats
I was. Stalked by a Polar bear one time. Scary as hell I di have a weapon. Luckily I run into a Eskimo. Buddy my life daver
What happened exactly? Where? How long and how far did it stalk you? What weapon did you have? What do you reckon would have happened if not having met the Eskimos?
Gus, I'm not a hunter myself but I've been learning more about it lately and I've been wanting to go sometime in the future. I think if hunting if is done ethically and humanely, there is nothing wrong with it and in some regions it is necessary. I will say that I don't think animals should be killed just to say you shot a huge bear with a bow and from your comments I can tell you feel the same way. My only question is what purpose did the bear serve after you killed it? Was the meat used for food? (Also, how did you get the bear out of the brush?)

Hunting with Ken shamrock..
Fantastic video and an awesome shot. It's good to see a hunter spot and stalk his quarry, especially something as dangerous as a bear. This is the real essence of hunting.
this is the way bear hunting should be and NOT baiting them as MOST bear hunts videos shown here in UA-cam.
youtuber well why don’t you go out and tell the bears that there’s hunters around the bait. Trust me if bears had consciousness they would be hunting us down daily lmao
exactlyyy
That's what I am talking about. Good clean harvest of a great brown bear. The nay sayers will always troll the heck out of these videos and it's best not to give into their stupidity. Don't feed them, just thank their opinion and when one comes into their backyard and eats their precious little poodle while they are eating their broccoli and all they have is the Internet to hide behind they will sing a different tune. Predator control is mandated by Congress and game laws....you know those things your ancestors probably fought and died for?? I myself applaud you on a ethical hunt and wish you the best...and for those trolls...well broccoli screams when you rip it from the ground...peace
I prefer to buy my meat at the grocery store. That way I can pretend I didn't harm any animals and my hands are clean.

@@floppygdog woosh
Correct me of I'm wrong, but hunters are at the forefront of conservation. They drive the DNR studies and then the DNR issues permits on a limited basis so as to keep populations healthy. They also support local economies and help keep environmentally toxic industries i.e. mining from getting established.
Thank you!! Someone who gets it
I appreciate your comment Cuchulain. I took some grief from my fellow hunters over not taking that shot I felt and still feel that is a one lung shot and I didn't want to take the risk of wounding that Bear. As hunters we all have our reason for why we hunt For me there has to be some honor in harvesting my game. A one lung shot would have meant a follow up rifle shot or a slow death and that bear did not deserve to die like that. When we left the bear that stood up was still alive
I totally respect what you’re saying, you’re a very ethical decent man.
"a slow death, and that bear did not deserve to die like that". But it still deserved to die though huh.....interesting philosophy
@@davidvanderlugt7731 No one is saying it deserved to die. The purpose of these hunts is to maintain a healthy population of bears in an ecosystem.
What happens to the carcus, do they somehow get it out of there or leave it, thing is huge.
I am always asked why is bear management necessary? Removing some of the older male bears is important to preserving the rest of the bear population. Watch
ua-cam.com/video/Rfo233Q6aOg/v-deo.html
+Live the Wild Life TV Same should go for human beings. We are almost out of food and water, and two billion more are coming.
No doubt, sensible hunting keeps the ecological balance - but hunting with bow and arrow only means evil torture to the creature and fun for the killer!
Only use big-bore rifles. That`s quick and clean.
I disagree. Any poor shot, rifle or bow, will not result in a clean kill. The amazing thing about a bow shot is the apparent absence of shock after the shot. I have had animals run and not know what had happened. They died quickly and cleanly. This bear died within minutes of my shot. It is up to the hunter to decide if he can make a clean double lung shot. If you watched this video you know I passed up a shot on a standing bear because of that very reason.
^^^Internet tough guy huh.....
Live the Wild Life TV I hunt with dogs in the UK and personally think guns can make things to easy dogs take healthy animals but will always pick out the weakest keeping the prey population healthy... guessing hunting with a bow when the animal, especially when injured, can literally take you to pieces makes you MORE careful of your shot and swift closure to a hunt
Man that was a beautiful, big animal. I can't believe the size of that head.
Genius photographer, great shot of the impact, the back of the hunter.
Maybe he should have ran between me and the bear so he could have videos the impact shot for you? That's real my man, you move you die that bear was 5 yards away. I think he did an incredible job under the circumstances to get the blood pouring out if that bear. You watch too much staged outdoor tv. Go to AK and lets see your footage

Great shot-great video on a magnificent creature. Sportsmen and women fund the research and conservation efforts to ensure the future of this species. Some people are happier to take the wild and the free out of the animal. Those people have no problem visiting these creatures enslaved in captivity in a metropolitan zoo. Good job my friend.....
“Amazing bear, magnificent animal!” Kills it... 🤦♂️
If you eat meat you can’t talk shit on a guy hunting an animal he’s gonna eat
If you’ve never hunted, you don’t have the appreciation for an animal like us hunters do.
There's plenty of other outlets for food. If you can afford a pricy bow, you ain't starving. You don't need to kill a magnificent animal to show off. Heartless fucks

Great shot. My Native Brothers would be proud. Anyone that's ever seen what a Brown or Grizzly can knows how scary this can be.
long before supermarkets and groceries this is the way man survived . . I pity them haters .
And you know this because you have spent time in the Alaska bush right? Think about it, a plane drops you off on a remote lake. You are living in a tent for 2 weeks with bears all over the area. No showers, no toilet, eating freeze dried food, it rains constantly so you are never really dry. Then make a shot with a bow on an animal that can kill you. Easy right
@Nunya Business you are overanalyzing and need to mind your own business.
Live the Wild Life TV 2 weeks no showers? Ill pass. You should have shot the forst one and hit holiday inn by 8😂
@@soflodoug LOL
@@soflodoug LOL If It thought I would have been able to kill the standing 100% with my bow I would have shot. This was personal for me I wanted a double lung shot or I was willing to eat my tag.
what kind of bow are you using? what is the draw weight set at? and what kinda draw weight do you need to kill a grizzly?
I disagree with killing for "sport" unless you are feeding a Family and you have to do it for survival. I learned to hunt and shoot since I was little and later went into law enforcement since I was 21 and have over 50 years experience. It is better to commune with nature and not upset the "balance" Native American Indians know and understand all this. Nothing goes to waste. It is also bad Karma not to pray over the "food" you have "harvested" for your "survival". Killing is Killing. I hope most of you will understand. Take care....
***** Thanks Gus! Very good answers and professional. I have considered hunting again as I used to when I was a child/teen in Texas. Nothing too serious. I am doing serious research on our Native American Ancestors and "other" American hunters have all but depleted the Buffalo. I think Bears should be protected and Boars hunted. I used to be a Fed and cross trained Fish & Wildlife. I carried a gun for over 40 years but in law enforcement. I also worked at the U.S. Mexican Border and enforced 40 agencies 400 laws, etc..I've seen a few videos with bow hunting Bears and they were allegedly within 3-6 feet? Wow ! A little too close, even for Smokey the Bear. Just wondered what the best type of bow is good for me? I am 6'3" tall large build. Special arrows? Tips? Or would you trust an old fashioned wooden bow(Indian style??) Stay safe okay ?
***** Nice ICON Michael! Cloak & Dagger stuff is my background. The biggest problem the Native American Indians had was they were LIED to and they tried to believe their could be Peace between the White American settlers. The Government has not changed very much in 200 some years. American children are NOT taught the Truth about how bad our Calvary and military acted towards the Native Americans by killing women and children and taking their "Scalps", etc...A whole "Culture" was practically wiped out for what? Railroads, Settlers, "Progress"?? I remember the story about how General Custer allowed some high ranking Indians to a "Peace" talk under a flag of truce and were all hanged or killed. ALL the alleged "Peace" Treaties were violated by our Government and Military.
In other countries like Japan, the natives who are special or significant are given protected status as living historical landmarks.....PEACE !
Yup.... what a waste of meat..... spring bears are decent .....
Hunting in this form does keep the balance in a good place. There is a lot of research to determine how many can be harvested, and nor over harvested.
To be in close proximity to something so big and lethal, would be communing at the apex.
I hope you back up your position with money. The revenue for hunts such as this, do more to ensure wildlife thrive, than the hot air you put out. Bad for the ozone too.
Amen
wish you could have got a shot on the very first bear that stood up it was awesome, any chance you are a tugboat captain ? you look very familiar, sincerely
+David Eustache Yes that first bear was exceptional in size but I doubt he had a larger skull. Very happy with the bear I harvested. The skull was 29 6/16" thats the SCI #1 archery bear. Once you hit that 29" mark you are in another category . And no I'm not a tug boat captain, maybe I have a twin LOL
Congratulations! And yes you have an all American Badass twin LOL. Just food for thought if you know anybody that has a large cc quad runner with the luggage racks and a rifle Scabbard and all the fancy accessories and is willing to trade for a testosterone toy with a 113 cubic inch S&S Andy Baker 5 speed gearbox with a 230 millimeter rear tire with drag bars and Wide Glide and just a crazy but I would trade them

where did he hit it? im here to figure out if a bow could bring down a grizz
Get it figured out yet ?
Hey Gus i'm just curious, when you guys kill a bear like this how to you get it out of there? Or is it just the photograph of you with the bear that counts as the trophy?
you leave the bear where you shot it lol.. bear meat taste like shit
Elk, moose, and bears are all large animals that are hunted remotely and every piece of meat transported for consumption. Usually on the backs of the hunters in many trips over several miles. Bones and entrails are left behind and is usually close to half of the weight of the animal. There are very few or no animals that produce 800 pounds of meat. ( I saw that figure in another Comment I think)
Did the bear see your Harley Davidson shirt and run in the other direction.?
I love hunting but seeing other hunters reaction makes me feel like a cold hunter.
Nice shot! what a great bear!
to all the cry babies, do some research of you food supply. cruelty is an understatement when applied to the origin of foods purchased in the supermarket. cattle know what is coming when they get loaded onto trailers and unloaded at the slaughter house, the smell of death surrounds them for hours before their time comes. humans are predators, have always been and will always be in order to survive.
Yes I did. Although I differ on the sucker punch part. At 5 yards that bear can rip me to shreds before it dies. I can sugar coat what I did and say that Fish and Wildlife agencies determine how many bears need to be removed to maintain the food supply and health of the whole bear population. Or that larger boars will kill cubs so that the sows will come back into estrous and will breed again. Hell I can go on with more reasons that this is necessary but the truth is this was a rite of passage for me. To take down the largest land predator with my bow on my terms. It's dangerous, exhilarating and what man has been doing since the beginning of time. Sorry you can't understand that. Enjoy your kale. Peace
I understand, but see if you can wrap your head around this. A big misconception is that the Fish and Wildlife agencies are supported solely by tax dollars that are collected from the general public. They are funded by sportsman who pay for licenses and are taxed on the hunting and shooting products they buy. The Pittman-Robertson Act which is also known as the Federal Restoration act became law in 1937. The revenue generated from the excise tax is apportioned to state wildlife agencies for conservation efforts. That hunt cost me close to $20,000.00 and part of that money funds the agencies that protect the wildlife from poaching and uphold the game laws. So although I understand your concern for the death of this bear understand that it is very regulated and does provide some benefit for the total population of bear.
***** hunting for sport is practice for hunting for survival. Would you be able to survive if no groceries at Walmart. What about fishing? Are you against sport fishing too?
Live the Wild Life TV you can hunt my misses for half that price pal
Live the Wild Life TV well said.obviously you do your home work..well researched! ! kale sandwich. lol..gross..think id rather have some grizzly summer sausage!
How old was that bear & what did you do with it do you get it mounted or just leave them.
+GuttaSnipe of course thy didnt just leave it...
most states(including alaska where this was filmed) have wanton waste laws.
"A person may not waste a wild bird or wild animal that has been wounded or killed by that person while hunting. For purposes of this section, "waste" means to intentionally leave a wounded or killed animal in the field or forest without making a reasonable effort to retrieve and render it for consumption or use."
+GuttaSnipe 19 yrs old. he is full mounted

I salute you sir and your obviously large male attributes😎 beautiful animal and great shot placement sir👍
i still dont understand the logic of the anti-hunters watching these videos and then criticizing us hunters. They obviously know nothing about why we hunt and why hunting is essential for human life. If no one hunted there would be an over abundance of animals and not enough food to support the species and the over abundance of the animals would also affect our way of life. Farmers already have a hard enough time as it is to support their crops from deer and other animals, so i cant even imagine what the damage would be with an uncontrolled population. This is logic and the Antis dont even give it a thought. and then they always say, i wish that bear would kill you. so since when is an animals life worth more than a humans. i have failed to figure out why they say these things. I hunt, i will always hunt, no one will stop me. i dont care about others opinions of it, its a way of life. I do it because its all i know. Its all ill ever know. i grew up with it and i cant imagine life with out it. So all the anti-hunters reading this and about to comment spare yourself the effort of writing a senseless comment that has no factual basis and get off the video because you are hypocrite and no one cares to see your negativity. Thanks.
Always the same arguments.. earth didnt need us to regulate anything for millions of years idiot
