Awesome stalk and shot Sean. I’ve only ever had this opportunity 2 times in 40 years and luckily it worked out one a doe and one a 9 point. It always amazes me how they can roll around and still get up and run. Talk about an adrenaline pump. Good job

I want to say thanks for you showing me they way you hunt. I'm from PA and it is cool to see someone else have success. I am 11 yr and yesterday I missed my first buck. Thanks

That was a perfect shot dude. No suffering, just dead stop. Amazing!

That was fabulous !!! Excellent shot.... great debrief !! Really puts me in to your thought processes as you stalked and took the shot. Thank you for you insights and dedication!

Sean, I am watching your older videos and learning so much. Awesome shot by the way!

It is SO very refreshing to see someone young have the curtains lifted from their eyes by witnessing what the word hunting is technically defined as. Hunting was always an action verb until commercialism found a lucrative business opportunity by inventing ways to sell people more and more tech/gimmickry that is totally unnecessary. Lures, tree stands, scent maskers, and most other modern "needs" were not around when the Indians were hunting - they knew the animals - as you said - on their (the animals) level. It is SO much more rewarding. But from the time people are young nowadays they are only exposed to the modern, commercialized system. Ask yourself just how the Indians could make a comfortable living by taking game with no modern tech tools. Hardly any modern "woodsman" can identify the different animal tracks, be able to read the track to see how old it is, find a shot animal without electronics if the blood trail stops, understand how to blend in naturally (I a not not talking about the clothes a person wears - camo or not - but moving, breathing, walking, blending with sounds and terrain), tell if a deer track is from a doe or buck, tricking an animal into thinking you are a part of their natural environment (if they detect you) etc. etc. Ever "graze" with a deer? As you discovered, the thrill is much higher when not tree sitting since there is no time to be bored b/c you need to keep your senses aware and open at all times. I am not sure if you have ever studied actual stalking technique or not, but after awhile using the technique Indians used (important), you will find whitetail are not actually hard to stalk and get close to. Just a teaser - Indians used to play a game called "Swat Deer." The name of the game says it all. And yes, I have been this close quite a few times It also, despite modern thinking, is possible to sneak up on a turkey. Look into Tom Brown's books (The Tracker). This is how I learned Indian technique years ago. I do not agree with his Indian spiritualism though as I believe our God created everything - which is evident in nature. But at least by being close to nature,m the Indians did, indeed, understand there is a Higher power manifested by the wonder in nature. I never understood how modern people could be content to sit in trees. They miss everything about being in the woods. Yes, its still exciting to shoot a deer from a tree stand - but it pales in comparison to being a part of the woods and, as you said, on the level of the animal. You tasted the thrill - now forsake the sitting more often and and keep hunting :) You have entered the actual world of reality apart from man's artificial shells he encases himself in.

I really appreciate you taking the time to help other people. You explain things very well and for a newbie like me it's very helpful.

Thanks so much for all your information ! Got a doe with your stocking advise, I’m so thankful for you and your Sharing all your experiences. God bless you and your family. Cheers from Ontario

That was a 5 star video Sean. If that was me I would have probably hit the tree and have to pray real hard that the tree was going to fall and kill the deer. HA! You had some really good points on stalking and I sometimes like to hit the tree stand one day and the blind the next day giving one area a rest. I also always have an arrow nocked for the stalk into the woods to the stand or blind. Playing the wind really helped on that second deer not seeing you. Amazing!!! God Bless!

I love your videos! They are so informative and easy to understand. And keep my interest!

Hi Sean, great awesome video again! I also saw your map reading challenge with the scouting trip, great group! I wish I was living in the US and hang out with you guys! I like the part when you wake up Andrew and say" Can Andrew come out an play, I laughed my ass off!!" My wife was sitting next to me and said: What's so funny.....

great video!! I just moved from Eastern oregon to western oregon. so I was switching from mule deer to whitetails and blacktails. great shooting!

That's the confidence I want before I start to hunt. I was a really good shot

I don’t like sitting in trees. I get bored and fall asleep. I love stalking down deer and hunting on my feet. I bring a small tripod chair for when I feel like sitting.

fantastic vid, great job not only pulling it off, but capturing it for us! I stalked two in a food plot yesterday, they turned out to be yearlings so I let em walk, but it was awesomely exciting to get to them and then leave, without em knowing I was there. incidentally they were right under my stand, so I figured let em leave their dander and smell all around it. awesome day.

Good Video, and good eyes in spotting that deer, I didn't see it until you pointed it out.

This gives me new motivation for whitetails. Since hunting western game tree stand and ground blind hunting has lost its luster. Add in I'm also switching to traditional archery, I'm sure I'll be having lots of fun and frustration.

This is an excellent video. Stalk hunting has now become my preferred means to hunt, but it is really challenging. I really enjoyed watching this footage. Wishing you a great hunting season Sean. Best wishes and god bless you, Jeremy.

Well done... Stalking is difficult in Nor Mn because of the thick cover, but over the years, I have progressed into mostly still hunting with my rifle, and have taken my biggest bucks that way. This will be my 1st season taking to the ground hunt with a bow.... so excited I have a hard time falling asleep some nights!!... Thanks, cool video. DB.

WoW, nice shooting! Love the fact you didn't even have a chance to put your camo on!

Perfect hit too buddy. Wind favor and a little cover is always key to success on a spot n stalk hunt😊

You're a very good shot. Clearly very confident in your abilities with your bow. Nice video.

Situations like this is why a ghillie suit becomes a priceless peace of kit . here in the Pennsylvania wilderness its hard to move quietly unless you've grown up doing it .

Incredible man! Great job. So cool you got it all on film

yup gotta be ready. Last week I headed out to try and get rid of a coyote that's been showing up at our food plot on a regular schedule. So, I'm heading to me stand and just as I'm stepping on the first ladder rung doesn't t that darn coyote walk 15 yards in front of me ! As I tried to turn to get a shot it just walked away not even noticing me ! if I was ready, who knows ? Nice video Sean.

That was so impressive. Wow.

Great hunting video's, your deer hunting video's are the only one's I watch, you actually care for the deer, glad to see you will harvest a doe also and not all about the trophy. Keep up the good (God) work. Would really like to meet you some day, if you ever decide to hunt in the forest around Derby,In, look me up. Ed

Praise the Lord brother. Lively lovely video

I'm at West Branch Public Hunting land right now, fixing to stalk. Thanks for the teaching, I'm a new hunter.

really great video that is truely teaching things

real great info sean, thank you and keep up the great yt infos and hunts

great shot and glad to see u were able to move into position without being detected. i'm not sure that stumbling onto a bedded deer on the way to a tree stand is a good example of how to stalk deer. thats kinda like dad letting you drive his car around a parking lot then making a how to be a nascar driver video. lol

Unbelievable. Both the shot and the stalk. Truly inspiring.

I just stalked a deer for the first time in my hunting experience and it was incredible and difficult it took me about an hour to go 60 yards or less

Awesome!! Thanks, stalking is what i want to do.

Amazing stalk and shot!

Wow suck an awesome video last season I stalked three deer, my arrow never made contact do to the brush but I agree with the felling of being eye level with the deer . Keep the videos rolling

great clean shot.....i commend you for that and not taking a crappy shot leaving the deer wounded .......i can tell its early season hunt by why are your arms bare and no gloves? i also stalk deer with a bow its the only way i hunt but was just curious is it because you hunt our of a stand? or was you gear in a pack on you?

I'm curious to know how far back the exit was given the doe was quartered toward pretty harshly. I'd be worried about hitting gut even with a perfect vitals shot.

amazing shot Sean! very impressive.. that appears to be an unforgettable hunt!

I did a very similar thing the other day only the wind was exactly out of my favor. but I got within 40 yards had a perfect broadside shot. And I hit the one tiny 1" stick that was just enough to send my arrow clattering off into the woods. I didnt see it at the time, but that was the only obstacle between me and the deer. lol

Growing up we used to practice by sneaking up and poking them with a stick or slapping them without getting kicked... I got kicked once. By the time we grew up we were either too big or too clumsy to do it anymore... But the style or method of creep stays useful.

Not that it's important, but it would have been nice to know what bow you were using.

how the fuck did you make that shot?! even with a compound that couldn't have been easy

Wow nice shot man!

Around what month, & approximately date of the month was this? Nice Sean!

Great shoot

That would never happen to me in a thousand years. I get busted in a tree stand 25 feet on the air 😂 you can’t step wrong where I hunt deer hear you from miles away

Clear shot. Cool

What camera was used? Good shot and stalk.

Good job! great tips

Good shot!

What do you use for body scent control?

great shot

Awesome shot.

Bro they put you in Minecraft No but fr great video m8

Very nice I need to try this!:)

Great job!

New to hunting. Is it ethical to kill a deer while asleep?

Good shot brother!

so would this apply to shotgun?

He looks like a fallout 3 character

Great Job

Praise the lord

Hello sean. that is what i call hunting Stalking up to the deer/Bear whatever. If I had my way I would ban tree stands. and Baiting. That ain't hunting Sitting in a tree stand or blind ??? Any Clown can do that. But it ain't HUNTING### god bless you mate

Great shot you’re a wolf my friend

It's nice to see a trim, young, un-tatted, clean-shaven gentleman this day and age. Most gun and hunting dudes on yoo-toob look like often-fat bearded homeless bums.

Less of a how to and more of a flex

Good job man

Why all the cut screens wtf

PERFECT FUCKING SHOT

Bro, I can’t get 50ft near a deer sleeping, wind to my face, and with absolutely not a sound made. WTF!

You shot a deer while it was laying down? That's like people shooting deer while they're crossing a lake or pond, it's not very sportsman like in my opinion. We are supposed to give them a fighting chance not take them out while they're resting.

how is the tv show thing going

Wow.

How are you able to shoot so many deer in a year? PA hunters have the worst hunting spots. God bless!

Do a Vid On foot, No tree stand!!

come on that deer was tied to that tree lmfao is this supposed to be for real or just laughs???

Bro all this is is a hunt not a stalk were do u at any point in time do you show us foot prints stalking a animal none this is not a a stalk but you did have a good kill

How dare u

Tree stand hunting sucks.

Only way I hunt. U sit u lazy
