    Great film. It was really well done. I appreciate the “out of stater” that show respect by sharing their great experience in our state without divulging every detail about where exactly they hunted. You came, you worked hard, and you had success in our mountains. I saw nothing but love and respect in your methods. With the rise of the “social media hunter”, there have been many things that have hurt the Hunter’s way of life in many areas and states. But, Josh you are sharing your experience in the right way. I thank you for that. I’m a fan👍🏽

      Man, thanks so much for that Ted. Really appreciate this. I sure try to not divulge too much. I still believe in "secret hunting spots" and self preservation. Wild places and being alone are precious. Good luck out there man. 👊🏼

    I really appreciate the music 🎶, filmography and story telling of this hunt film.
    My youngest brother, my Dad and I went to Idaho for a rifle mule deer 🦌 in 2019 (sadly I didn’t have a tag 🏷) and my brother shot a 3x4 on the 3rd day of the hunt in early October. 418 yards with his 270 Win.
    He basically said that the only way he saw him was that the deer 🦌 got up to stretch.

      @@DialedinHunter you are welcome 🙏 Josh. It was fun, even without a tag 🏷 I got to see where he shot him and helped pack him out even though I didn’t have the proper footwear since I mostly brought rubber boots to fish 🎣 in and small game hunt. Nothing like fresh grouse mixed in with potatoes 🥔 and onions 🧅 and cheese 🧀 inside a tortilla, except some fresh backstraps of course.

    That’s a nice rifle
    That was nicely put together.
    Who’s doing the filming?
    I was listening to that part about you talking about fast pace in the city and appreciating being able to and having to slow it down when you get into the woods, because you mentioned those things come up every now and then, and it’s a lot of patience and waiting, so you have to be patient and slow and change that mental working of your mind and body from the city to being out in the wilderness and I completely understand that.
    That bag LOOKS heavy 😄
    Man…. Those are some steep cliffs you trudge on.
    I definitely give you credit for what you do because you do it with just you and whoever’s filming, for days or maybe even a couple of weeks at a time, so far away from home out in the wilderness.
    Your home is essentially where you have to make it when you feel it’s time to set up camp, and you’re just out there with your supplies doing it far away from home and everything you have on you and your instance for what you know what to do with what you’re doing. 👍

      @DialedinHunter  Рік тому +1

    • @tristanmack5779
      @tristanmack5779 Рік тому +1

      It's true but only for certain parts of each state. Not a lot of bears where I live in WY, but travel about 100 miles north of me and you better be packing a pistol and spray. Really depends on where you are. Typically the closer to Yellowstone you are, the better the odds of running into a grizzly or wolves right after shooting something. Black bears usually aren't much of a threat anywhere.
