Agreed. Glad you like it. Good luck this season.

Agreed. Thanks for watching. Lots of memories, both of the mind and body, are made on such hunts. I still have a bone bruise that is not completely healed, nine months later, from a wreck I took hiking out with heavy loads that night. Thanks for watching.

Thanks, Jace. I hope we get back to AZ for another elk hunt. We might have used all of our luck in 2013 and 2014. Good luck this season.

Thanks for watching. Good luck to you, also.

Glad to do it. A lot of my "advice" is really an explanation to "Don't do the dumb things I've done." Hope you have a great season.

Thanks, Sterling. All reports are that I will need all the luck anyone is willing to send my way. Stay safe.

Glad to hear that. Thanks for watching.

Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching. Good luck this season.

Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching. Good luck this season.

Thanks. And thanks for watching.

Thank you for watching.

Thank you for the kind comments and thanks for watching. I am surprised how many Europeans are watching our shows on KZfaq. Best to you.

It's a good one. Hope you like it.

Me too favorite hunting channel! yeeehaw cant wait for Sept 30 this year opening day!

Good luck this season.

+Randy Newberg, Hunter Thank you Sir it's limited opportunity and always my second choice because we need to hunt every year and more than once. I run a Leupold scout scope on a Ruger Frontier .308 win. Love my Leupold scope makes my gun shoot magic bullets 😆

Randy great hunt to watch. I'm from Ruidoso New Mexico where this was taken if you need anything from this area let me know thank you.

Thanks for that kind comment. Whether will tags or not, we usually give a good effort. Thanks for watching. Good luck this season.

Thanks for watching.

Thanks. And thanks for watching. Glad you liked it.

Thanks for watching. I hope you will share with your hunting friends. Good luck this season.

Thanks. And thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching. I hope you will share it with friends.

Wow what a hunt...you guys go the extra miles for sure.

Thanks for that kind comment. And thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching. More to come. Good luck this season.

It was a TV show. We moved from TV to Amazon Prime and here on KZfaq. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for that kind comment. And thanks for watching. We have a great crew that works very hard. Glad the effort pays off.

Thank you. Yes, that bull made us work for it. Thanks for watching.

Randy Newberg, Hunter I live in Farmington,NM . One thing about NM we are blessed with a lot of public land. I saw the comment below. Have to love public land!

Thanks for watching. Good luck on that mule deer hunt.

It was one of those things you hope you never do again.

Thanks for watching. We are out filming right now, hoping for some good stories to tell on video.

Nice. Have Leupold bring you to the European tradeshow IWA. Your style of shooting will fit in just fine with what is trending in the European market now and what Leupold are trying to sell.

Thanks. Bruce eared that one.

Thanks for watching. Hope you have a great season.

Question for you, Randy. When you were bumping other bulls while going down into the sanctuary, were you worried they might spook the bull you were going after? And that was an excellent shot by Bruce.

KZfaq does not allow links to outside sites. I hope you will support those companies. They want us to do discreet ads and keep focused on the content. Not all companies feel that way, so I hope people appreciated these companies for doing so. Thanks for watching.

Yes, I was worried. It is always a risk.

Thanks for watching.

What state?

hey! where are you from? Im looking for a hunting partner as well.

Correct, and good eyes. When we got there, the big boy, having that sixth sense many old bulls/bucks have, had disappeared. Seeing this other bull was a good one, Bruce was happy to take him.

He was still a shooter in anyone's book. Excellent hunt, and experience. Made good video for sure!

Mystery Ranch Metcalf.

I would apply for a really difficult-to-draw unit as a first choice, a moderately difficult unit as my second choice, and an easier unit as my first choice. Even the easier-to-draw units in NM provide some great hunting. The elk numbers in NM are as good as any state I hunt. Don't listen to the naysayers; apply for a tag, go hunting, and have a great time. Good luck and thanks for watching.

That's a unit I've never elk hunted. Good luck. I would glass as much as possible. Bulls will be away from cows in their bachelor groups of 2-6. Look in the rough country that hunters avoid. Those are sanctuaries they use in the last season. Thanks for watching.

And when you are done, that is "working." Thanks for watching.

Randy Newberg, Hunter I first saw your show about 2-3 weeks ago and now I`ve almost seen every hunting episode😊.There is something more in your show compared to most other huntingshows. I can see a broader definition of the term hunting in your show; the reloading, the equipment, the psysical part, shooting, taking care of the meat but & most of all the people! It is so good to see the excitement in their &, of course, your eyes when you are hunting.There is a saying here in sweden that goes something like ”shared happiness is double the happiness” and I can see alot of it when you Hunt with your friends. Doing a show there is always a business part but I think it i important to balance the business with the huntingstory you tell. If you get the balance wrong it’s ”hard to see the forrest due to all of the trees”! I see hunting as a way of life, to share the moments and stories with good friends is what life is about. The other parts, equipment etc, helps us make the the trips enjoyable and contributes to the building of a experience that we can remember. I think you do the balancing act in a very good way, just like a finetuned reloading scale :). There is a lot in your shows that Can be aplicable on todays life and society. The main point, that I see it, is that you don’t get anything for free in life, you have to work for it and that’s what makes it all worth while! Unless you’re born with a silverspoon in your mouth, but thats another story 😄! Looking forward to more episodes! Sincerely Robert

Central New Mexico.

@@Fresh_Tracks So I guess I'll rephrase my question what unit are you hunting in? I know it's in New Mexico.

I make mark of a nearby landmark that will give me a reference. I also mark the glassing location on my GPS and the landmark on my GPS, then use the "Go To" feature. It will get me within a very close distance. Before getting too close I check the wind and other aspects to make sure of the best approach angle.

A .338 Win in a Howa Model 1500, shooting 250 grain Nosler AccBonds. Thanks for watching.

LOL... and the Leupold boss gets to use a brake if he wants to! That must have been flippin loud... Fantastic episode, one of my favorites so far!

We hauled it down to the canyon bottom, carrying some out that night and then hired a guy with mules to haul the rest out in the morning. Thanks for watching.

I have 165 grain Nosler Partitions in my .308. They are going around 2,800 fps.

Randy Newberg, Hunter ok thanks for replying

We don't give out the exact hunting units, as that would not be fair to people who hunt/apply in those units. Hope that makes sense. And I really hope you do get out there soon.

Thanks for watching.

Burns will have fallen trees within a few years. Go hunt them. All the burns I hunt have a ton of fallen trees. They also have the best feed on the mountain.

Randy Newberg, Hunter thanks for the info, I am using burn locations as a starting point to look for when trying to find units to apply for

I used to apply, before the show. We now film only native species, so that has caused me to stop applying for oryx, even though I would really like to hunt them.

I've never hunted Chama. Gila is great.

@@Fresh_Tracks Thank you for the kind reply. I just recently lost my girlfriend of 7 years. It's been devastating and to keep my sanity I need to get out in the wilderness and hunt...where to go has been an issue but your videos help. I love you man and Thank you again.

7mm mag not -08.

With a .284 bullet, I would probably step up a few grains to 160, 165, or maybe even as high as 170 grain. Will get a better ballistic coefficient and penetration, without much changes in ballistic performance. If you are using a "soft point," I would use a Nosler Partition. See these videos on bullet and cartridge selection for elk. Bullet selection - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sKqddJBnu9m2ioU.html Cartridge selection - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ecyUZrucrarFdHU.html

Thank You!

Yes. We do it all the time. Hang it in the shade, in high quality game bags to keep dirt and insects off the meat, and you can hang it for quite a while without spoilage. Put it in the sun and all that changes.

+Randy Newberg, Hunter never knew... Thanks

Depends on the unit. Range seems to be $1,500 to $12,000.

Out of respect for other hunters, we never give units. Just not fair to those who hunt an area or those who apply. If we were to give areas, it could cause a big influx of draw odds, hurting the odds of those who have traditionally applied to that unit. Hope that makes sense. Best of luck.

Never have seen one while doing that. Might have happened and I didn't see it.

As stated in comments below, we don't tell people the units we hunt, as doing so would negatively impact those other hunters who apply or hunt there. Hope that makes sense. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching. I will be chasing whitetails in Northern WY this November. I use a Mystery Ranch Metcalf pack on hunts like this. MR link here - www.mysteryranch.com/metcalf-pack-ex

+Randy Newberg, Hunter thank you Randy. what area are you going to be hunting whitetails. Pronghorn starts today pretty dang excited.

Big Horn River area. Just south of the Montana-Wyoming boundary.

Sportsman Channel. Thanks for watching.

no problem

A wide variety. We always make sure they have red or green light as an option.

+Randy Newberg, Hunter why do you want red or green light options?

+Randy Newberg, Hunter are those the lekki corklite trekking poles? if so do you like them? was thinking of picking myself up some

Jake Brown Yes, they are. Here is a video that has a link to Leki poles in the video description. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eZ6Fq8J-sLHNmKs.html

+Randy Newberg, Hunter thanks for the fast replies and great video just finished it i always enjoy watching your videos and have learned quite a bit from your videos. thanks for producing them and putting them on KZfaq you have a good one and Good luck this season.

It is the next video in the roll order. It will be sometime between the 15th and 20th.

This was a unit-wide landowner voucher. Yes, if you get a unit-wide voucher, it allows you to hunt all public land, as we did, and the lands of all private landowners who are awarded unit-wide vouchers. I don't worry if the landowner has good hunting, as we always hunt the public land.

As you can imagine, I get hundreds of requests. Time constraints do not allow me to take any of those kind requests/invites. Arizona Game and Fish does have mentored hunting camps, where they teach hunting skills to new hunters. Might be worth looking into. Link here - www.azgfd.com/Hunting/MentoredCamps/

Yes. Curious, as to what makes you think it was not. It was Lincoln National Forest in New Mexico.

Randy Newberg, Hunter No reason... Great Elk!

I like elk better than deer and equal to moose. The closest state would be Kentucky, but those are hard tags to draw. Besides that, closest would probably be Colorado.

Yeah, it was. And I am stupid enough to help another friend who has the same tag for this coming season. Hope we have another fun hunt. Good luck this season.

NM draw is explained in this video - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ldiooq-qkqyseac.html

We did get a horse guy to retrieve the remainder the following morning. Choppers not allowed in a Wilderness Area.

Two men and a camera guy carried all they could that night. We got to the trailhead at 2am. The rest was hauled out the next day with the help of a great guy and his two mules.
