I’m a more novice hunter, even though I grew up around hunting. This past weekend I was hunting with my cousin and he shot a small 6 point. We both learned how to field dress a deer, and after watching a lot of meat eater I decided to save the heart and try it. It was honestly really good. It felt good not to waste it. Thanks Steve 🙏
@@Monscent There's actually quite a few non hunters who think any organs are gross or similar to keeping organ like the stomach without trying it. It's the grocery store mind set.
@Rob Rob The hat is from first lite, but it looks like the jacket and pants are from Kuiu. Some kind of softshell material. Probably the line that is called "guide".
Imagine what it was like before man arrived 800 years ago, moas which are about double the size of ostriches, haast eagles that use to swoop down on moas and take the smaller ones away (biggest eagle ever) and the noise was deafening with bird song apparently. Then Maori came and ate all the moas which also made the haast eagle extict . My home country was really fucked up by man.
Steve.. Your opening statement was..HELL IS SPOT ON. First time I went "hunting", I had zero idea what I was getting into. My first time was with friends..scared out of my mind on what, where, when or how...But was also seriously amped up for the excitement, thrill, and beauty of it all. That was over 30 years ago. The thrill and excitement are still to be had. It's ALWAYS a joy to be able to hear, smell and watch the wilderness come alive while you sit and glass a ridge.
Fuck Netflix they have taken everything good down and of course the one good show (this one) and they only have seasons 7-9 or something stupid like that. Seriously fuck Netflix I stopped giving them my money bc it’s really a waste and I wish other people would stop giving them money too so maybe they’ll stop being so arrogant and put content back out
I cannot express how happy I am that this channel has taken the direction that it has. There's constantly new amazing content, and now they're even uploading old episodes of MeatEater. It's awesome!!! I hope they upload some old episodes of The Wild Within later on! Thank you to everyone who has made this happen!
So good to know that Steve has been down here hunting in New Zealand. He's welcome back whenever he cares to come. Theres lots of different hunting experiences available here for the beginner to expert level hunters.
Just started watching this and im hooked. People think hunting is cruel but watching this its taught me its a way of life. Its necessary. They really care about these animals as its their food
Love it. Before, trying to stay dry. Now made the kill. The animal is the most important. Swim if they have to. Such respect. Hunters are hugely underrated conservationists.
@@swamptosoundadventures8337 yeh no exactly mate I agree with that, I thought the other bloke meant just don't hunt at all, leave them in the wild. I hunt fox and pig and make every possible effort to collect my kill
Basic info on climbing harnesses: Those loops you guys cliped into are not meant to hold any weight. They are meant to clip your gear on. If you tie in always do it on the front, the loops on the side will break very easily
Steve was right on the money when talking about the competing thoughts when I'm about to go high in the Alps. There is clear danger, and there is a drive to head high to enjoy the mountains and bring home some meat. He summarised it perfectly for me. I've hunted that area a lot, so many peaceful nights making my way down to the ute/camp with a heavy pack, groaning knees, sweating back, and light smile on my face. Good times.
@@Holub101 Damn, cut back on the soy. It was a joke, he obviously didn't die in this episode, this is Season 2 of 9 and he was just on JRE. You must be the asshole at the comedy clubs who goes on Twitter the next morning and calls for the comedian to be cancelled because you were "offended". Grow a pair.
Great to see you guys made it over to little old New Zealand for a visit and a hunt. Tahr are my favourite animal to hunt here in the mountains and wicked to see you got out there too. Keep the content coming meateaters!!
I remember sitting at the foothills of the Southern Alps when a few Tahr bolted out from the trees behind me. Scared the hell out of me, first time seeing one. Also, the South Island of NZ is really one of those magical places on Earth. It really has a spiritual force.
Not a big hunter. I do occasionally but I love anything this fella does from podcasts to this show. That says something to his talent to entertain someone who has no real dog in it
Steve and Remi together! Can you imagine the amount of outdoor/hunting knowledge these 2 have between them. Would love just an hour to chat with them about all of their experiences. A couple of class acts!
Last month I commented on one of your vids saying you should try Tahr hunting in NZ! I am pleased you got to experience what us Southern Alps hunters endure for fun!
That's what I miss the most about home, the huts. They are literally everywhere and each one has it's own character. I am more of a hiker and the way it goes is each hut is about 2-6 hours away from the next on each track , so you walk from hut to hut. There are about 1000 of them scattered throughout NZ.
Awesome content! Two of the most interesting and inspiring hunters in my opinion and the two of them together is the dynamic duo I’ve been waiting for but never expected..thank you👏
This has to be one of the best meat eater episodes ever. I first watched this many years ago and I just completed my first tahr hunt 🙌🏻 can’t wait to go back.
So grateful for these uploads during COVID. Takes the mind off and allows it to wander to better and more fruitful times. God bless, prayers and peace over Steven Rinella and Remi Warren and the whole MeatEater family.,
That's the other thing NZ has got.."Basically No COVID!"... We still go hunting each week. I got 3 Fallow deer this week and I'll be going hunting again in a few days to chase the Sika deer.
I wonder if Steve writes all his voice over material? I tell you what he has been an inspiration along with everybody else on meat eater for me too purchase off grid land and move toward subsistence living! I would eventually love to provide all of the meat my family eats from the wild. taking steps in that direction have been very exciting!
Steven's description of high mountain hunting isn't far from the feeling a person gets mountaineering. As a new hunter and long-time climber, I'm excited to learn the disciplines intersect.
As a long time climb or you didn’t pick up on how poorly they rigged to a gear loop a leg loop with the gri gri and belayed them out into the river on non-rated Newton pieces of gear
This just gets me too hyped! I love the thrill and the meaning to every hunt. To really explore and to take advantage of the nature that we have and the experiences that comes! Cant wait to see the next one
The hunt has been great aready, that's too much, too intense guys... :D the music you play is excellent, and the cameraman, no doubt, is a master. What a great stuff you serve here!
we have those kind of public cabins in Norway too haha. But i think you might have to be part of the national hunting and fishing association to get a key or a map of where they are, I dont remember quite. We slept in some of them when we went on hunts and fishing trips with my high school
Steve you are amazing. I thought I watched every single one of your vids and I bought a few of your cook books but can’t find the recipe for the spice that you use frequently in your show. The one you sprinkle on. Do you mind pointing me the the general direction. Thanks.
Steve is a wordsmith. He is the face of hunting that needs to be seen every where when it's being questioned.
I agree with that he's a great spokesperson Annie explains controversial situations very very well and he does it without trying to disrespect anybody
Steven*
Truer words counldn't be said...unless they were from Steve. Remi is not all too bad to listen to either.
That introduction may have been the best meat eater intro ever
He use to be a writer so it makes sense. Loved the intro to this one forsure
I’m a more novice hunter, even though I grew up around hunting. This past weekend I was hunting with my cousin and he shot a small 6 point. We both learned how to field dress a deer, and after watching a lot of meat eater I decided to save the heart and try it. It was honestly really good. It felt good not to waste it. Thanks Steve 🙏
Awesome! Congrats on your new journey
Why would anyone waste hearts?!
yeah the heart is the best part of any animal, just so full of flavor.
@@Monscent There's actually quite a few non hunters who think any organs are gross or similar to keeping organ like the stomach without trying it. It's the grocery store mind set.
@@Master_Yoda1990 how do u cook it? I've ate the liver of some of my bucks and it's pretty simple
Animal: *exists*

Proud kiwi here. Hunting is a universal language!

Aw jesus ye cant leave us hanging like that 😂
Shane Lonergan are ye irish like me self
@@diarmok1549 I am indeed
And you guys have some amazing country to hunt in! I'd love to visit.
The amount of content is insane for the last few weeks. Good Job!
He’s gotta make up for only putting 3 hunts on Netflix lol he went from 10 episodes each a different hunt to 6 episodes and 2 episodes per hunt
They have released s1 and 2 on the website if u don't wanna wait
How good is it. These last few make me want to hop across to NZ
He probably got a tahr pig and red stag all in a weekend damn I love my country
@@TheRassyClan. Was gonna say aye brotha, make a few episodes a day here on the regular.
NZ seems kinda like a place that time forgot...and that's a good thing
Yep and it rocks. Off for a hunt tomorrow after work. No permit needed

MORE hunts with Remi Please. Also his Podcast Cutting the Distance is AMAZING!!
I'm really enjoying these New Zealand episodes. Teaming up with Remi is super entertaining and as a non hunter like me, it's educational. Thank you.
More respect for Steve than any other man on the planet. Thank you.
So glad to call new Zealand home. Born, breed and will continue to hunt from this land.
Me too !!
Kia kaha Bro !!!
Who needs Netflix! Favorite show no competition
@AARON HALONEN not this content,which is why I said who needs Netflix
Fuck Netflix they have taken everything good down and of course the one good show (this one) and they only have seasons 7-9 or something stupid like that. Seriously fuck Netflix I stopped giving them my money bc it’s really a waste and I wish other people would stop giving them money too so maybe they’ll stop being so arrogant and put content back out
They'd rather be woke than profitable.
@@JakeLovesSteak Yeah, almost like morals are more important than money or something. Crazy, I know.
@@SnailHatan Woke and moralistic are not the same thing to be fair.
Steve's "embrace the suck" face crossing the river is epic! Thanks for great content.
I’ve mustered sheep in that country, and was a shearer in Canterbury, spent 40 years in those mountains, or we called them hills
I cannot express how happy I am that this channel has taken the direction that it has. There's constantly new amazing content, and now they're even uploading old episodes of MeatEater.

@Matt allen i guess it does depend on the species tho
It shouldn’t depend on anything, if you killed it you have an obligation to do everything in your power to get it
@@swamptosoundadventures8337 . Wasn't disputing that in any way. What's your point dude?.
@@skar5541 I agree with what you said. I meant that to what Matt said that you should leave cause it taste bad.
@@swamptosoundadventures8337 yeh no exactly mate I agree with that, I thought the other bloke meant just don't hunt at all, leave them in the wild. I hunt fox and pig and make every possible effort to collect my kill

Yhen you've goy a piece of shit rig... My tower rig will hold wherever I tie or clip to...
Looks like he's actually clipped into his belay loop or hard point at 16:48.

Something inside us that sadly a lot of people have seemed to have lost.
That next episode better be up today, the suspense is killing me
He is fully up there with the best when it comes to clear concised and powerful narration and introductions
There has never been a better show created
SO U GUYS ARE JUST GONNA LEAVE USS THERE THANKS BRO BLESS STEVEN
Steve dies in this episode :(
@@rhelferstay that's a pretty shitty thing to joke about.. go fuck yourself.

Steven your words are constantly what I am feeling.I salute you in your journey,and thank you for your videos.
Never hunted in my life yet, here I am enjoying this channel.
Great to see you guys made it over to little old New Zealand for a visit and a hunt. Tahr are my favourite animal to hunt here in the mountains and wicked to see you got out there too. Keep the content coming meateaters!!
Please let part two come within a couple days!!!! These are my two favorite hunters and them collabing again is a freakin dream!!!
How can anyone dislike a video that has Steven Rinella preaching his wisdom
That was absolutely beautiful worded in the beginning of the episode. You’re a the epitome of what it is to be a amazing person and a hunter.
Maybe the best meat eater intro ever
Love the show Steve, love Janis Remi and all the people on the show, thank you for everything
I remember sitting at the foothills of the Southern Alps when a few Tahr bolted out from the trees behind me. Scared the hell out of me, first time seeing one. Also, the South Island of NZ is really one of those magical places on Earth. It really has a spiritual force.
Beautiful episode and beautiful landscape, similar to our European Alps! Greetings from an italian chamois hunter!
American guy here lol. What do chamois taste like?
@@RL18877 It tastes like goat, more or less... The old ones have a strong flavor, maybe too much for today's taste: as usual the younger, the better

I knew I should have waited for all the hunts to come out . anytime I see a. Part 1 I know I should wait for the rest to binge
True, but it's MeatEater. Can you really resist?
If I was chest deep in a river, I'd be glad Remi was holding the rope. Epic hunt man, love it when you two team up.
This is the best content channel on all of UA-cam, now of we could only get the podcasts shared on here.
Hunting and fishing are a human right. Change my mind
I don’t want to change your mind
Like Steve says in his intro, it's what we're meant to do.
I don't see anything wrong with that

I don’t even hunt but I’m so glad I found this show I love the host!
That opening is beautiful
the stories they share and he listens to everytime he goes hunting
Bang bang. I don't even hunt, but the show is good.
Chamois are so mysterious. Loved this episode!
Aside from the local wild table fare in NZ, Canada goose has got to be one of my favorite fowl. Good shooting!
Jesus christ, what a thrilling cliffhanger. I'm so glad I can watch the next episode directly O.o
appreciate steve for releasing all of these short vids - waiting on his netflix S9 Part 2
Didn't realize it was from today until i seen the to be continued and went to check for a follow up.

Hell of a way to end an episode! Cant wait for part 2
Pure suffering this one! :D So fun to watch this from the comfort of your home
I watched the second episode and well you guys are bad ass brother! My mouth was watering!!!!
Definitely one of my favourite episodes.
Gosh, I thought sitting in a stand and waiting for deer to come by was hunting, now this is REAL RAW hunting
Steve youre a crazy dedicated bastard. I love it.
Good stuff guys! Some familiar country there, good choice backing out of that section of the river - it's a widow maker!
Crossing that river reminds me of my dad telling me how he had to get to school every day... both ways.
