The Hunt for a $310k Antelope Island Buck Donated to Army Veteran

- In this special episode of KSL Outdoors, we take you on arguably one of the most sought after mule deer hunts in not just Utah, but maybe North America. We travel to Antelope Island, where for the past ten years Utah State Parks has given away two tags for mule deer on the island. One is a draw tag for the public, the other is for a conservation tag that is auctioned off at the Western Hunting and Conservation Expo. And for the first time ever, a man won the conservation tag for $310,000, and donated it to an Army veteran. So we tag along on the hunt and introduce you to the man who donated the tag, Mike Shultz, and Tyler Jones, the veteran who received this amazing gift.

Mike Schultz is a self made man and one of the most patriotic and honest dude I know. Does good things with what he has been blessed with. By the way for the haters and nay sayers out there he was doing these things long before he became a legislator Hood on you mike. Thanks for honoring those who have honored our great country
Justin Oliver!! High school buddy of mine. You won’t find a better dude! What an honor to hunt there. Love how they are so invested into our countries heroes. 🇺🇸💪🏽 And what a stud of a Rep. to donate that tag.
Mike Shultz you are a very generous man, you are to be saluted. You definitely made a difference in this veterans life. Great job.
He made a positive difference in that 1 man's life, but massively has affected me , my family, and many more by taking the public land we've hunted on for over 40 years! See my public post above.
I was lucky enough to shed hunt antelope island in 2020 (the most recent year they’ve done the shed hunt) and I’m almost positive I found this buck’s set from 2019. It has the matching “false G2’s” I’d love to give them to Tyler if he wants them.
Dude are you serious?? I’d LOVE to just even look at them.
@@tylerjones7355 Absolutely! Do you have an Instagram so I can get in contact with you and I’ll send you pictures of the sheds
How did you get on the Shed hunt?
@@SMsPRTyCRw07 they haven’t done the shed hunt since 2020 because of the big horn sheep but it was a draw that you had to apply for
Adds a new perspective to how we view those who bid. This time it wasn’t all for ego. This is how we should treat vets. Thanks for your service.
Amazing to donate that tag and love to see him taking his daughter out with him when he could. Great job folks
So stoked to see a great dude and good friend of mine get this opportunity. You deserve every minute of this stalk, hunt and spotlight. I love you and Ellie so much. So cool to see you in this setting.
You are a good man Hugh! Love you my brotha!
America needs more Mike Shultz's that's for SURE.
Great thing to do Mike real credit to you and all that participated.
see my comment above
Shut up, I'm not crying, you're crying! Bless you and your family, Tyler. YOU AND YOUR BROTHERS IN ARMS DESERVE THIS AND SO MUCH MORE!
What a fantastic buck. It's nice to know that there are still good people in this world. I super stocked for the Vet. that got to take part in this hunt of a lifetime. Thank you Mike for being an example to a lot of other people. It super nice to know that some rich person just didn't but the tag for them selves and take a big hunting guide up to make money off of his or her videos, but instead a person that has sacrificed so much for our freedom got to hunt and harvest that amazing buck. Congrats.
see my comment above
hes a politician man. he didnt earn that money he embezzled it. then gave a portion away in the public eye so he could get votes. fk that guy
@@natemerkley4756 we get it, you want everyone to see your comment.
Awesome..brought a tear to my eye.. our vets deserve to be cared for.
hell yes so awesome Mike one hell of a thing you did and for a well deserved veteran Justin thank you for your service and congrats once again
Great Community Support for a Deserving Patriot .
Thanks to all.
Omg my grandpa was the cattle boss for island ranch company when they settled antelope island and he also discovered the caves on the island I wish I could get back out there and to hunt out there what a dream !!!
Most deserving guy out there! Congratulations brotha 👊 thanks KSL for putting this together so we can relive again!
Blake my bro, you’re a solid guy! Thanks for everything you did to make this happen.
What an honorable act, given to an honorable man.
What a great feel good story and what an awesome animal! My heart has been warmed today....
Super cool deer! Awesome gift too:)
For all the hunting seasons he missed while in service to us. Protecting our freedom and way of life. He couldn't deserve it more.
God bless you all thanks for your voice and view of American military
Great stuff!
Thank you for serving our country man.
What an incredible video thank you so much for taking care of a Veteran and taking him on a hunt of a Lifetime what a Monster Buck
Cool to see Blake and Bryan involved. Some of the best dudes out there.
Damn right they are!
Wow. That is awesome.
thank you mike and all of the rest of you for makeing this hunt happen and thank you tyler for your service proud of you all.
We need more inspirational stories like this one. Great job Mike Shultz and the entire team who pulled this together.
Awesome video!
Buck of a lifetime, glad to see someone so deserving and appreciative get it.
Wow! What an incredible story!! Well done Tyler!! Thanks for your service! Enjoy the hunt brother🏆🙏
What a inspiring show.... Now that's news worth reporting. ...
Mike Shultz you said it well when you said the ones with money get to hunt. Everyone with that desire needs to be able to hunt. Now change the DWR to allow that to happen. Thanks for being a sharing good example to our vets.
That’s just all around the best hunt video I’ve seen.
Great story and Tyler we will always have your back 👍
Stay strong and be safe !
Thank ya friend!
Congratulations on a beautiful character buck love those extras n trash. I’d been happy just picking up his sheds consecutively 😊
So cool !! Awesome !! God bless !!
Daniel from central Mississippi
Couldn't hit the like button enough awesome hunt
This is what America should be! A true American hero, unlike Greiner
What a cool experience and a cool buck.
I got my buddys out the last couple years one was bout to have kids helped him get 2 deer in the same day then this year helped my buddy get one that had one day to hunt for Blacktail of all deer and we got it done for him it’s those things that make people family
Great video! Thanks for giving are heroes these opportunities. I love too see this, but one thing I thought that could have been left out, was as soon as are hero fired the first shot and then racked another round, the other guy was like safety on to are hero. Like literally no time at all. It’s like really! I am all about safety but dang, give him some time. I mean he did serve in the Army! I think the soldier knows a thing or two about safety!
Man that is awesome
Way cool 👏🏻 such good guy’s
What a great story
KSL Outdoors should tell the story of how this same "generous man" Mike Schultz; a Utah State Representative and owner of Sawmill Ranch; 1 year ago convinced the State of Utah or Bureau of Land Management to "trade" him the best 160 acres of the Hennifer Echo BLM Land that boarders his ranch; for 80 worthless acres. That was PUBLIC LAND that me and my family, and many more, have hunted for 40+ years! Now it's his, and now if I want to hunt that land that I've hunted on my entire life, I would have to pay $8,000+ for a buck tag and $12,000+ for a bull elk tag! We the people need to stand up to rich politicians before they take any more of OUR PUBLIC LAND! This comment is both RESPECTFUL, and TRUE! And unless you hunt that land, you'd probably never really know just how "generous" Mike Schultz is! Now there's more land for his rich clients like Donald Trump Jr; who has hunted their before, and less for US POOR PUBLIC LAND HUNTERS!
Sounds like a good trade to me!!! Wise man !! Don’t be jealous!!
@@kingsolomon8946 a politician for the state makes a deal for state land to benefit his business sounds like MASSIVE CORRUPTION to ME and fools like you will keep letting em do it! Jealous? NO! COMPLETE CONTEMPT and proof Utah is corrupt, YES!
So awesome
Great hunt but you could have bought the well deserving veteran a house with that 310K
Christensen arms is an awesome company! Seeing that just made me feel great about how many of their rifles I sell at my shop. I sell more Christensen Rifles than any other bolt rifle.
Someone at the irs office is probably drooling over the idea of taxing this guys donated tag
Very cool ...
Awesome glad people still care. I want to talk about the divorce but it's probably not any of my business. With that said, many veterans deal with this because they are having problems and their significant other doesn't want to put in the effort to help. Not many people put in the effort to help
❤
Good for the veterans! I still don’t trust politicians? 😢
Love the way Utah sells it tags to the highest bidder and what do they do with the money piss it away way to go Utah
Glad you guys did it without Captain Doylee Moss.
Wait!! Halfway thru the video and where’s Mossback!??
I would’ve taken a house instead of a hunt, or some land 😂
Thanks for all you do Mike Shultz. Excellent buck Tyler
Well deserve!
What did that buck score?
I wish I could do something like that with my army brother ( real brother)
well deserved donation---------------TURN THE MUSIC DOWN
Wait a $300,000 Deer hunt??? 😆😆
a fkin joke isnt it. you couldnt pay me to hunt a deer. i have enough trouble not killing them on accident when i drive home.
Would have been nice to see the shot
Would have been nice to see the shot, that's the reason I watch hunting videos.
This show originally airs on live TV at 6:30 in the evening. So we are required to be mindful of folks who may be watching who aren't hunters as we tell the story.
@@KSLOutdoors It's all good, there's plenty of other shows that show the shot !
Is it really hunting when you have a "team" tracking the deer for you weeks prior to your "hunt "?
How TF does a deer hunt rationally cost $310k? This is why I will never be a politician because you can’t be honest and a politician. Being shady and making it look good from a public perspective isn’t honest, and having money to throw away like that and paying for a single hunt without it seeming like a waste of money doesn’t seem very much like a public servant. I’m glad he got to shoot a deer once so that we can focus on that and none of the homeless ones or the 22 a day that kills themselves because of the trauma and injuries that received nothing but a “good luck” and DD214. Idk how any veteran could feel like he deserves a 300k hunt instead of using it for other vets or homeless shelter or a nice house or 2 decent houses for 2 vets with families. It was a nice act, but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t a waste of money as far as charity goes. You probably helped your taxes more than you’ve help any veterans in actual need. Maybe I just take my oaths to protect AND serve my people more serious than you did. I tried to view this positively but it’s just hard to so many people supporting a $300k hunting tag or a guy who is using your money to spend irrationally on such ways idc if anyone trashes me for this because if you’re upset with my post you’re ignorant or easily swayed by tiny acts of kindness
That’s like stealing $500 from a house and buying them a $10 gift and tell you I’m looking for a new friend so you let me in and now that you trust me you let your guard down allowing me to steal but you think I’m your friend and when things go missing you think “nah they would never” and nobody realizes it.
Only about $4,400 a lb
A politician with that kinda money? That’s questionable. At best.
Just a cost of being re-elected for him
see my comment above
He’s a snake
So rather than commending him for providing an opportunity of a lifetime to one of our veterans, you find something to be critical about? Grow up man.
GOD BLESSES PEOPLE WHO DO RIGHTEOUS SELFLESS THINGS AND HAVE PURE HEARTS,And didn't you notice,HES A REPUBLICAN !!!!
If you're a veteran and get reported suicidal whether it be false or you actually are, DO NOT make a statement without legal representation present.... they'll take everything you have and you'll catch hell trying to get it back... you can't undo what you did by talking....
It's easy for men going through divorce to get overlooked. Thanks for providing him with this opportunity.
300,000 $ hunt what a joke I mean great for the vet hunts I’m all for that as I to am a vet but wow it would cost me 5 years of wages to hunt there that’s crazy
He needs a Leupold on that rifle.
I agree to a point. You rich, corrupt elite need to take all your money and give back big time and not just our VET'S but everyone, including employees! The best hunt yet I've seen in years. Great Buck, brother .
Wow, multiple comments, really got your vagina in twister. Be happy for the vet, that's what this story is about. Go rant someplace else.
Why? 2 the last comnt prior 2 mine,He could hav been very successful,prior 2 politics in buisnes.Alot of them R,who go that rt.They don't do it necesarily 4 the mony at all.Not sayng that sum politicians don't get wealthy @ the top ranks.Just in all fairness,2 not pass judgement until U possibly mite know all of the facts
What hunting has become.A rich mans sport.Iv,e killed better looking buck,s as a kid and sure didn,t spend it surrounded by a mob.
Why are we afraid of showing the hit?

Generosity at it's finest!
Its a good story but its twisted a lil. He even said it himself. Looks like a fairy tale creature and so lets kill it.
It passed it's DNA on to many a fawn, with that rack, it was getting close to end of life.
Over rated hunt ever!
AWESOME..
Mike you are a legend!!! God bless you!!
See my comment above
What kind of cowardice is required to kill an animal at long range? You're the experts, after all.
sooo this is special just because they limit tags? what am i missing. 350 thousand to kill something that i actively have to avoid hitting when i drive because theyre so overpopulated. i couldnt think of a more "dime a dozen" animal to actively hunt than a deer. plus with all that equipment and extra hands involved, it sure removes any sort of challenge as well. honestly a ludicrous price. id expect to be going after tigers and elephants on a long getaway for that price. not killing a shitty deer because some politician wanted to look good
edit. just got to the kill... wow thats an underwhelming animal. its nice but ive seen several dozens like that or better
