  • We went on a buck hunt in the Entiat Mountains in Washington state. Just when we thought it was over, the universe decided it had other plans.

    3 years ago I was on my way up the mountain on the backside, from Leavenworth and was a little late on the drive to where I wanted to start my hike in. I was planning on hiking to the top of the ridge SW of the Entiat river valley. About a half a mile from the end of the road I happened to glance to my right and saw a nice 4-point just standing in the trees about 50 yards off of the road. I pulled over, got out, loaded my rifle and walked about 20' into the trees, past the thicker brush by the road and he was still standing there, just looking at me. One shot, through the throat and he dropped in his tracks. I had a 50 yard drag to the truck and didn't have to climb to the top of that nasty, steep ridge, lol.

    I have been E-Scouting that same exact area and glassing points for years, just haven’t made the trip yet thanks for putting this video together, now I know a little more than I did yesterday. Great video. Congratulations on the success.
    That being said, constructive criticism, something I would think about when posting your hunts online is editing the footage not to show major land marks and labeling the mountains in the title. There are Very limited entry points to that area and you definitely gave a road map to that spot.
    I’m fully in support of hunts being shared online, I think it’s important to inspire new hunters, and current hunters, but when we do, we have the responsibility to the animals and other hunters to do so without putting any spot on blast. In this case through I don’t think it will make that big of a difference, the size of them mountains are pretty intimidating to many hunters. But just food for thought for your next video.
    Congratulations again, you guys seem like you would be fun to hunt with.

      Unforgiving country. It's steep, and with all the fires there are tons of blown down dead trees. Your legs get awfully heavy climbing over all of that stuff. My hips always hurt after a long day up there. Some huge black bear up there also....

    Tough hunting in those massive burns it seems, great job tracking one down! I feel pretty spoiled with my regular spots now, especially after seeing all those trucks parked! Keep at it and making new content.

    Great job guys !! 👍 That can be some rugged steep country you were in. I'm from up Omak way , so I'm not far from there. A guy has to be in good shape to do those kinds of hunts.
    Fantastic clear footage with the cinema work. Great job guys 👍

    Hunting the burn. In 2018 my mountain land burned in a forest fire. Now the Mexican poplar and the aspens are thicker than hair on a dogs back. There is a lot of big game there now but very hard to sneak up on.

    that truck looks familiar, and the video guy too. Did I see you guys on Finley Canyon this year, drove through the slide across the road and only had 2 wheel drive?
