As soon as I saw that barrel resting on the wall I knew it right away! Good catch on that and lucky the deer wasn’t just wounded!

Humility is a blessing. Thank you for sharing the wisdom and glory within your hunts. Your "character" shines through. And as a new hunter, I value all the effort and detail you impart.

The charm of hunting is that you don’t always can take a shot and hunt a deer. We have all failed sometimes.Thank you for sharing your experience, always so fun to watch your movies. Greetings from Eva in Sweden.

Thank you Keith for your honesty what happened on that shot. Many people can learn from that experience you had. In order to feel the highs of hunting you have to experience the lows also. That's what makes the highs so great along the way. Great show and thanks again for keeping it real and honest.

It sure looked like a gut shot when I zoomed in and watched the shot.

Even worse is hitting that glorious buck and not recovering him. I've done both, and all you can do is exactly what you said- keep hunting and moving forward. Just being in that setting is a blessing in itself-beautiful wilderness.

to go all that way and spend all that money for the hunt and not pull the trigger on that 9 point was stupid.

Gorgeous footage captured and the filming edition of the camera work looks spectacularly gorgeous .. appreciate your efforts and hard work for sharing another beautiful adventure .. thanks again from Montreal QC .

I feel your pain Brother, I once rested my hand over my scope and took a shot at a 150 plus inch 8 point and made the same mistake, I never seen him again, live and learn, Thanks so much for sharing your hunt , I enjoy the video .

Please explain...if I were in the same situation, I would have done the same. Only thing different is that I would be wearing an orange safety vest and have my head lamp on for safety. The hunter was making every effort to help recover the deer. J-walking is also against the regulations. Most of us have done that! To me its a non-issue.

Ron White, the comedian, once said ….” You can’t fix stupid “ !

I learned the hard way. Never lay barrel on rest, or a crossbow stirrup on rest. Thank you for sharing your pain.

Super sort

1st again from ottawa ontario . morning all

I noticed you did that with your gun before you explained it .But a clean miss is better than a wounded buck. What caliber of sako are you using ? Is it a 85 or 75 ? I have a 85 finlight

Are you sure the second big deer a year later wasn’t the same deer? Had the same frame but maybe he was declining. Man they sure looked similar. And yes as soon as I watched you put the barrel on the wood I was saying, “I hope you’re not going to shoot like that”!

Not to be "that" guy... but understand that the Alberta regulations are very clear. You cannot leave your static position unless you are with your guide. The fact that he is on his way and you are losing day light does not justify you leaving your blind with a rifle to go and see if you have blood. This is a direct violation of the regulations. The amount of this crap we see on social media is astounding.

My friend in Europe we say if St. Hubert gives you take. Darz Bor from ...Alberta 🙂

True hunter.

I seen it right off! Always remember to put your hand between the gun and the tree or blind.

Saludos. Amigos. Este programa es emocionante.

That's too bad. It's good to show these things because there are so many videos out there with guys shooting these huge bucks at crazy ranges, high 5-ing each other, making it look effortless. Anyone who has hunted long enough has had this kind of thing happen to them. I've had misses like that up close and I've connected at 450 yards. I've also had solid, thoracic rifle shots on deer and lost them due to expansion failure or fragmentation with projectiles that are supposed to be "deadly". We do the best we can but sometimes in the field, all bets are off. Sorry you lost the buck. You'll get 'em next time!

so thats like a 25 moa gun?

Unlucky shot I feel very bad keep up the great work

Great tip regarding the gun barrel - thanks

Big difference between deer hunting and deer shooting.

Бывает....😊

hey where con i find a hunting comps in edmonton the price id not ridiculous

That 9 point, man! That 11 point, F me!

As soon as I saw you lay your gun barrel against the wood on the blind I knew you were going to miss that’s a definite no no

Good afternoon! Thanks for the interesting content! how can I contact you about cooperation? Interested in advertising integration

Live and learn eh?

Weren't you cuddled enough by your Mother ?

Never make the same mistake twice

Ouch😊 be bigger next year!

You can hunt till the end of Time and you will not see that buck again he died from the bullet you put in his flank

ph hunter if you are a hunter , how can you miss a clear shot like this. you should not be in a hunting field at all. shame on you , you probably injure a lot of animal and you making a hunting movi.

Those regulations are dumb. If your old enough to hunt,, you don't need a guide to hold your hand
