It’s the Sitka gear 😅🤣

Man SAME haha

The deer know you cheaped out on gear

It was!

M

You gained all that knowledge and knowing he was on private land just from watching this video? Wow, aren't you a special little nothing..lmfao

my thought exactly

I kinda wonder if it was 30 from the camera, but they are so grossly big it could just be a lens/perspective thing. I've been this close to adult females and that was impressive.

It sure looks like 30', but that tree looks in the way of his shot too. So probably 30yrds.

Keep guessing. You see the surroundings? Does that look like it's plum packed with people? They are huge, they are wild and they are dangerous when you get that close to them. Stalking is just as much about your will as it is being sneaky. You have to push in on them knowing they could jack you up. The wind and your scent will bust you long before their eyes will. Play the wind right, move with it for covering your sound. They don't see they way we do or in the same colors. Easier to blend in standing near anything else to break up your silhouette. They will spot movement but it won't spook them if you are slow and steady and still broken up silhouette. They will be confused just long enough to do what he did here.

I would even bet these guys were smelling that elk while moving up to it from a pretty good distance out. If you smell him and he's in front of you.. go for it.

@@chriss1151 lol

Yeah they're big animals

He now walking threw my digestive system

​@@CASH-THE-NERD At least use the right version of "through" you hillbilly 😉

Well the wind could be blowing his scent away from the elk. And elk don’t necessarily have good eyesight either and the sound of the rain could mask the sound of his footsteps.

exactly! its probably in one of those zoo hunting ranches with tame animals. Elk would have bounced the second he would have taken the first step

@heron123100 it's also known as the ranch toe Rogan and ham canes hunt on.

Jealous 😂

It is PUBLIC LAND IN CANADA 🤦‍♀️

Lol no, public land in Canada

@@CacciaOutdoors ive hunted elk all my life. Im 70 now. Never seen a wild elk jump up stop and stare at a hunter giving him a perfect shot, especially at 30 yards.

@@idahomike100 We’ve had it happen a few times, mainly with deer and bear. The key is how the hunter moves

@@idahomike100 it’s amazing how much a guy can get away with if an elk doesn’t smell you

Yeah they're similar. This is a Rocky Mountain Elk. The antlers are the easiest way to tell them apart

30 yards

Red stag don’t live in North America. Unless in a high fence private hunting club that only rich people go too.

Knott’s Berry Farm

@@CacciaOutdoorsget em They can’t believe what a REAL HUNTER can do

um….. FOOD!!! Have you eaten elk before, obviously not or you’d never ask that question “why” you’d say “can I go with you next time’

Not true, this is PUBLIC LAND in Canada

Meat.

No one said you have to hunt and eat it. So you take pictures (you can eat those) I’ll hunt food and eat food. We will see who gets on in life better.

Do you not know anything about elk hunting? This isn’t your mom you can’t just throw ruby Tuesdays and a black cock on the table and have a 700 pound elk come running to you.

Nope, real life. In Canada actually

Would you recommend lobbing an arrow from many yards away instead? Now THAT would be (ethically) idiotic.

You’re nuts, this is public land in Canada, 🤣

Ah yes eat the meat from mistreated animals that are injected with nasty stuff. Get a life city boy

I’m glad you don’t hunt too. Nothing worse on a hunt then someone complaining non stop

How can you tell?

Not true, I say prove it!!!

What do you call it, shopping for meat?
