I can imagine Steve in the corner of a bar; glassing

"I would never marry a deer you know". This is one of the best catch phrases in this show. That, and Cal's "Smell us now lady".

I don't even hunt but I find myself watching everything this guy puts out. Steve is a legend and gotta love his perspective and morals on life/hunting.

"Whats the plan for tomorrow?" "Try n shoot another deer with a tongue" 🤣🤣🤣

Callaghan is true woodsman. Any time he speaks I am all ears and trying to soak in everything I can.

OCal with a hat on is 26 years old. OCal without a hat on is 45

His story about a feller named Grover really shows the author inside of him, always looking for interesting parts in a story

I could watch Steve and Ryan hunt/talk all day long.

how cal is telling the story of how he shot the buck and how its sync with him saying "bang!" and the footage of him shooting it. insane editing. like a movie

Two of my conservation hero's right there.

"And the guy's name was Grover." ...I've been waiting for this ep pairing to drop! Two of the best episodes in MeatEater history.

I love the way you guys did Cal’s side quest here, so good with the narration and highlights after the fact.

It's about time cal embraces the bald lifestyle, he'd still rock it with that stunning moustache

2:54 I was like "Daaamn!" In sync with Steven when that buck popped up😂

Man, I cant wait for some new hunts with these two together... their solo content is great but the two together are a hoot

4:42 Lol, that’s an “I’m smarter than you” trot if I’ve ever seen one. 😂

I’ve must watched this deer hunt series 10 times and still get as excited now as I did the first time.

Not being negative, it’s shows like this that have sparked so much interest in hunting. Opening day in Montana and you cannot go anywhere without seeing a sea of orange. From horses, to electric bikes and all the road hunters, it’s nearly impossible to escape.

I love the "every year I fail part". LOL. Because fail being more probable than not is the drive that pushes us to continue and Not Fail because we just love the hunt.

I'll never forget Steve describing fun... the most fun you can have is those days you suffer and work your ass off. At the time it's not fun but you look back 2 years later and say that was one of the best times I've ever had.

Yes! 6pm on a Friday in the UK - No better way to start the weekend than a new Meater Eat vid!

This show, Steve, and everyone he hunts with got me back into the outdoors and hunting. It’s all I ever think about - hunting and fishing.

Steve and Ryan is the dynamic duo of hunting

I could listen to these two for ever. These men are and will be legends!

Cal reminds me of my stepdad who died 11 years ago. He saved my brother from drowning in a whirlpool near Amanzimtoti. Cal has a similar way of talking and he has a similar face structure. My dad loved hunting- he taught me how to shoot and hunt. It makes me so happy to see there are people like him out there caring about both sides of the game conservation as well as hunting.

I could listen to these two talk all day. Cal can sure tell a captivating buck hunting story.

Found myself watching Rinella for some time now, since I decided to become a hunter and actually go to college for Forestry and Hunting in my country... He reminds me of my late Grandfather. Wise, calm and cool, funny and always full of great comments. I find some comfort in watching him. We need more of this series.

Ryan is just suck a great hunting buddy, what a shooter, definitely the man that loves what he does and does it with such calmness and accuracy. Way to go guys, great time

“She’s a beauty, but not the one for me.” 😂😭 love it

I love you guys. My wife said “He’s such a great story teller.” of Steve.

I’m late to this channel and all its content but I’ve made it this far, and I can sure tell Cal has made his ancestors proud.

I was reading his survival book when this got posted! Definitely recommend any of his books!

Thanks for kicking off the weekend with this hunt!

Nothing gets my heart ❤️ pumping ,more than big Mule deer bucks 190” + or better ! Been doing it for 42 yrs ,and I don’t plan on ever quitting 👍

Kudos to the editor! I was wondering why we don’t get to see Ryan’s bear pursuit while it was happening. Waiting to show the footage during Ryan’s narration was brilliant story telling from the editing room!

Ryan Callaghan is the man.. I can see why Steve would pass on all but the very best buck on the mountain just to keep the hunt going and spend more time with him.

Grover. I had a horse called Grover, a 15'3" hand Roan, I took from Narromine to the Innaminka gymkhana rodeo when I was 15. I almost rode time in the bullock ride. The best of times.

This is getting me even more excited for my deer hunt in central Idaho this fall!!

(6:03) holy moly Cal's hairline dropped to his stellar mustache. Nice hunt, I never inform anyone I feed tounge to until they finish it. They always like it until they find out what it is.

I wonder if those guys glassing that Steve spotted saw this episode and were like ,”yo that’s us!!”

These two guys just have a great way to tell a story, they are humble hunters that want to learn everything about animal and the environment. The photography is amazing, the thing I love I escape with them on the journey, it's not Monday or Sunday, which I unfortunately live to. I've never held a gun before, I've never killed an animal, I go to the supermarket where its wrapped in plastic at a 'special price'. Sad. This series has stopped me supermarket meat shopping, I started going to a local butcher, and built up the courage to ask questions and have a conversation about the meat. It's been a refreshing positive change.

Really enjoyed this guy's...love watching cal , you can tell he's passionate about hunting...I can relate..thx

What I find ironic is that as I attained a high skill level with hunting, and the success that goes with that, the less hunting success matters . Same with fishing. I’m just happy to be in a good place, that’s success!

As a guy who spent a life time thriving on the spirit of brotherhood, Team, camaraderie, esprit de corps, etc:, I know good dudes when I see them. Hanging out with these two for just a couple of days would be extremely rewarding.

Cal comin’ in hot with the COVID cut lol

That’s funny!!!!!! Steve at the end of the bar

Steve is on one with the humor in this episode lmao "So, what's the plan for tomorrow?" "Shoot another deer with a tongue. Get some more tongue." xD

"Its good if you do it with the name grover" That was a good laugh

Been waiting for this one. Another Classic 👍🏽

These two episodes are the best of the show...I’ve been waiting months for them to come out

You guys always have a great time together. Your areas are so cool that you guys tend to hunt in. Even, public lands are an adventure. Congratulations Ryan on a great mule deer. Better luck with a nice bear before your trip is over. Steve, I hope that you kill a really big mature buck. I will be waiting on your next video. Deer tongue is something that I have never tried. I have learned never to say never.

I love how Brian‘s eyes light up when steve says I’ll just stay here yeah I’m going😂😂😂😂

This has and always will be my favorite meateater episode

Callahan is the shit. One day I hope to meet him and hire him for a hunting adventure. He is so calm and collected.....seems like an amazingly centered man. A man that I would like to know.

10:07 -Me when my parent's sat me down for the talk

I‘m not an American I’m a German. We got a totally different hunting system here. But the thoughts are the same and I love this type of connection in mindset of hunters all around the world.

The way steves teeth shines at 5:41 has me mesmerized

Ah nothing makes me happier than seeing Callaghan the kid and Roughneck Rinella.

I've never hunted, but have always wanted to. I watch all of the Meat Eater videos as soon as they come out. This one has only made my desire to learn to hunt stronger.

Hooked in to the show, this is one of their finest episode.

"I'm goin!" He couldn't wait!

You guys captured this hunt perfectly. Thanks for sharing!

I love that they put the ads in an appropriate spot. Not 3 seconds before someone pulls the trigger.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE DEER SEASON! 🦌AS WELL AS THESE EPISODES!

Pls don’t stop making this show you are the best

I looked for this video months back to rewatch it during a workout. Thanks for bringing back 2016 season 6 videos. Put them all on here. 🤘

Truly the only and the best hunting video content there is! Thank you for making it easier for us, less articulate people, to get across what hunting actually means! Wonderful

The face you make when you roll that bear in the rocks is quite bear ish😂

A week from now. We fist fight. 😂😂. I love watching this man.

These two guys are the best! 🙏

I haven’t hunted YET, but oh man. Ryan’s buck I can tell is a very beautiful buck. Holy smokes. Can’t wait for the day I get to have my own hunt! This just fuels the fire for my first

Steve, I couldn’t agree more; “if you’re gna shoot the biggest buck to come out of a state that has such huge bucks like Idaho, you may as well do it with a name like Grover!!!” I couldn’t have said it ANY better myself my dude!!!

This is my favorite duo! Grizzlies or mule deer love watching them do their thing

this show is how I relax in this crazy world. Thanks guys

Thank u Steve for uploading your vids on youtube ❤love watching your show over and over lol

All time favorite episode of MeatEater.

Cha chas and icecream boys......lotsa icecream.....

All the shots taken on MeatEater are so clean. Drops them straight down. Some hunting videos on KZfaq, I can see the animal taking weird hits from weird angles suffering bad.

Glad to see you guys eating the tongue! As a Mexican we eat all those “different” cuts Tongue, ears, stomach, cartilage, intestines, we eat it all! Lol.

😂😂😂😂 There doing all there looking where im looking 😂😂😂 Priceless

Can you imagine what those other hunters you bumped into were thinking? “Hey man, is that a friggin’ camera crew over on that ridge?!”

Callaghan took his hat off and even his hair vanished

I always save the tongues and hearts, freeze and collect. And eventually make a nice ragout for my Family now and then. Everyone loves it :-)

As a Mexican, we see the tongue as one of the most valuable pieces of any animal

I've watched a good amount of Steve at this point and I love that his mind is pretty much always in the same place. He could be on a turkey hunt and if you ask him "what are you hoping happens tomorrow?" His answer is always "I'm gonna shoot a huge snaggletooth buck". When he needs to actually plan he always lays out an effective intelligent plan for the hunt hes on. But somewhere in the back of his mind there is ALWAYS a monster buck roaming around in his future. I'm not mocking him either. Of course it's funny, but I also think it's part of what makes him an awesome hunter. In the face of insurmountable odds, he is always right around the corner from his dream buck. Edit: Just watched the next episode. Was literally around the corner. Steve Rinella, Apex Predator.

Cal is an amazing story teller

Cal love when yr with Steven, u two are really something..✌ Stay Wild & Safe my friends.

5:14 turning 21 this year and already understand that I’ve made bad decisions quick 😂

I've been hunting Mule deer in Idaho for over 35 years. Big buck every year. I've never worn all that gear though, even when i elk or bear hunt. 1 hat with a slick beanie under, 1 scoped rifle with sling, an LBV with 2x US issue ammo pouches in nylon w/black clips to hold some specialty food, a few extra rounds, and survival essentials, 1qt US issue canteen in the old style vietnam or Korean era canvas issue to protect it. A small FAK on the back of the belt, a rediculous untility knife on belt, another for field dressing on shoulder LBV strap pocket, a fanny pack I can jam my beanie or gloves into when it warms up, 10' of 1/2" nylon rope on the LBV rear top. A bino chest harness attached to the LBV and whatever pistol i'm carrying at the time+ 2 mags.on the belt. And even all that is an overgear for me. Magic numbers 39 & 43. Ryan knows where that is. + my fav boots ofc.

One of my favorite episodes

Watching you and Ryan hunt is my favorite

Glad to see your channel growing so much, about time people caught on to how great these episodes are

I had never ate tongue till I had a boss from Mexico and he made cow tongue tacos its an amazing meat when prepared properly

I love deer tongue. It makes amazing tacos.

Been waiting for these episodes to be posted. This is awesome

I'm ready for deer tung tacos! 🏹💪🏽🇺🇸

I’ve been looking for part 2 for 15 minutes only to realize this episode just got added today 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

Love going on these virtual adventures. I live in idaho but don’t have access like this.

I like being out in nature day or night because the world is perfect and beautiful

My favorite duo 🙌🏽
