Definitely go after him

GET AFTER HIM! You said so yourself “it’ll be a challenge to even get a chance at this deer” and that’s what hunting is about!

You always seem go down the ethical road when it comes to deer hunting. Sounds like the opportunity to hunt this deer is very challenging. With all the work you have put into this deer already, I feel you deserve a chance at him. Go after him and make your viewers proud!!

I’ll say this. When I first started watching y’all YEARS ago I was super conflicted and really was pissed at this whole “urban hunting” thing. Then I started watching you all more and more and saw how not just respectful you were to and respectful of the animals and everything involved and I saw for myself how this wasn’t just you dropping every animal you could and this was a passion and love from the fiber level of you alls being and you really lived this. It clear you guys do this right and it’s clear you guys do right by these animals. I write all that to say this, if you don’t go get him someone will. Someone way less committed, someone way less ethical, someone way less deserving. This is the type of animal that you earn and you all have earned it in my opinion. I’ve watched literally you blood,sweat and tears go into this. It would be an honor to watch it and the fact that you asked your viewers their opinions instead of just saying F it I’ll do as I want speaks volumes!! Go get that bad boy!!

I think it is something you go for. This deer is already so scarce in his movement through your permission area, and the fact that you document all parts of your hunts will show the raw version of your process and concern for going after this deer. In that case, I and probably other people would agree that it's isn't like you're going after a fish in a barrel, and on that note, it will show that you did everything by the rules. Thank you for showing the raw side of your experiences because it shows how much you care for what you do. Go after that stud!!

The fact that you are wanting everyone’s opinions on this deer shows what kind of person you are Lee. Everyone has your back because of the genuine person you are and how much dedication you put in. 100% take your shot at this deer. There will always be someone negative no matter how by the book you hunt. If there is anyone that deserves this opportunity it is you man. Take your chance and I hope to see you hit the record books!!

I think that you’ll give this deer the most respect and love that it deserves and really showcase the beauty of a whitetail deer. I mean what a better send off than to have a entire video in his honor! You deserve a chance at him and I’m sure you’ll have the best odds. Do it!

Get after him man… the amount of respect you have for this deer shows. Go get yourself a buck of a lifetime!

Reading through as many comments as we can. We appreciate y’all taking to time to give us your thoughts.

That’s what this channel is all about. It’s a dream deer in a urban environment. You can’t let your image stop you. The ones that got you where you are today will be proud, and that’s all that matters.

It does not matter how well you present what you do, there will always be people who look negatively upon hunting deer. You are one of the best at bringing attention to why deer need to be hunted and what it means to not only yourself but also the rest of us who call ourselves hunters. I vote yes.

Absolutely. I think if the odds are that slim of even getting him, and it ends up working out then that tells you if it’s meant to be. You’re ethical and always represent us in the proper manner and if anybody deserves that opportunity, it’s you. You have all that time invested in him. Get him.

You should definitely go after him Lee! The hunt, the grind, the respect of deer, and showing us you can hunt urban deer is what y’all are all about!

I see absolutely no wrong doing in hunting that deer. We’ll never cancel you Lee

Lee you are one of the most responsible and respectful in the outdoor industry Worldwide! How you have handled situations in the past has proven yourself and what Seek One is about! In life you will always get backlash by and from what you do. I back going for him and giving it your best which you do! If anyone is liable to harvest a buck of the caliber it would be you. Pursue him Lee!

I think we will all be sad if you don’t go after him. You always show the most respect to the animals. If anyone deserves it, it’s you brother.

Go for it Lee! I think the whole world would love to see a deer of that class.

Two-part scenario in my mind: 1: Somehow find and harvest this deer and confirm Seekone's name as the pinnacle of urban hunting. GOAT as they say. It becomes undeniable that urban hunting has its place as an equivalent to rural and large tract hunting in skillset, dedication, passion AND harvesting giants/world record breakers. 2: Somehow find and harvest this deer and have yourself a "Cecil the lion" situation on your hands and somehow land yourself being chastised for it on CNN. You could coast right through with minimal uproar from the people of the city that know the deer. But ultimately you will receive worse negative press than a regular Joe because of your social presence. It's just how viral it goes which is out of your control. Just get on Joe Rogan and smooth it over ha! Finally, you are as passionate as they come for this sport and your faith in Christ. He has led you here. Hunt the deer. Matthew 5:11 “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.

If you do go after him (i think you should) i wish you all the luck in the world man and i hope to see some great hunts this season

Hey brother I absolutely love your videos I'm 17 and love to hunt but I have yet to shoot a buck hopefully I can get it done this year You're a huge inspiration to me and I think you should totally go after this buck!

Go for him! Legally hunting and obtaining permission, always looks good for hunting!

You guys grind harder chasing deer than anyone. Mad respect - Get after him!

If that buck has been shot before he is totally wary and is going to be a gigantic challenge. Go for it. You have given the context.

You kept asking weather or not should you hunt this deer.But your definitely hunting this deer,the question is how much commitment are you gonna make to him.I once hunted a urban buck from Oct 1st all the way to Oct 22nd,sitting in the same tree every evening after work.Noise disturbance and smell really didn't matter in this location,since it was so close to homes on the street.Twenty two sit's and finally it happened,I knew he'd come down that creek bed I just didn't know when.Can't wait to see your bigger than life buck video and the commitment that it took to get there.Good Luck and God speed brother.

already showing so much respect for this deer I’ll say you deserve to hunt it

I believe that u should definitely go after that buck👌

I’ll say this! If I put the time and effort in on a deer, and I have a opportunity to harvest him. Most definitely go for it!! We have your back. Your videos have got my son to push me to attempt to do what y’all do with him by my side! So again go for it! For all of us that watch you on here.

I just watched this so I know I’m a bit late to the show but here’s my opinion. If he is anywhere close to being a record breaking deer then I think you’d be a little crazy not to pursue him. I understand your point about wanting to do the right thing and not wanting to paint hunters in the wrong light but I don’t know anyone better suited for this situation. Y’all demonstrate a balance of respect for both the animal and individuals which I believe will go along way and be in your favor in the event you manage to harvest this deer and come under any scrutiny. The majority of people wouldn’t have even brought this up so the fact that you’re asking for the opinions of others in this community speaks to your character. With all the hard work and dedication you’ve put in, driving around multiple states preparing for the season, I think you owe it to yourself to go after him - otherwise, what’s the point? Opportunities like this don’t happen often and I think you’d regret it if you decide to pass on hunting a possible record setting deer.

Your respect for these magnificent animals is right where it should be. As a hunter I definitely can see where you’re coming from. But if you have an opportunity I’d say take it!

Definitely go for the trophy. You have an ultimate respect for wildlife and you have never put seek one’s name into jeopardy. As a fellow hunter, your urban hunting is far from what I do but your respect for wildlife and your morals are what brings me to your videos. I look forward to seeing you chase this wonderful Animal we all enjoy chasing and I look forward to seeing the journey. Good luck lee.

You built Seek One to do just that. If he’s the one, go get him Lee. We’re with you whatever you decide. God bless and good luck this season.

Urban hunting is your specialty! You HAVE to go after this deer! Good luck in 2023 Lee!

You have a legal right on a certain area, if he crosses that plot of land take him! World class is not an easy or common deer to see daily. I once heard someone say “we as hunters should not judge in what we shoot but instead what we choose not to shoot.” You inspire so many people and this year I have 2 deer that are very close to noon and Crocket score. It’s also my first year trying super hard to chase these 2 deer. I hope you get a shot at this buck!

As passionate as you are for hunting big bucks, you deserve a mega giant! Get him, can’t wait to watch the hunt! Good luck

I think your concern over what people will think with this deer is great, but I also think all of the things you talked about with this deer are what you guys are all about! The challenge of a no bait state, along with him living in peoples yards, yes it is going to upset some people if you get the deer, but if not you then who? You said there are multiple people after this deer and that you guys filming makes it a little different, but if anything that makes it better, you guys will put in the extra effort and make the right choices while hunting the deer to give it a quick expiration. Everyone here watching your videos is watching for the story and the experience, and this could be the best one yet! Do it!

Absolutely go after him. You did your homework, you put the time, effort, money and it portrays to your audience that hard work sometimes pay off and sometimes does not, but your trying, and not giving up. The effort and drive to do something you love, that’s a beautiful thing. Get after that deer and good luck to you brother.

Lee I appreciate that you have a concern about hunting a deer that spends most of its life in a no hunting area. You have permission to just outside that area in a legal manner. If the good lord wants you to have it, he will provide. Love you videos

You guys have made a living and created a great show on legally shooting backyard bucks. it’s very similar to how a lot of people hunt around my Way in the suburbs of Philadelphia. There’s always going to be people who have a problem with it. And the people that would have a problem with it aren’t going to watch your show anyway, so I would definitely pursue that Buck! I’ve hunted the mountains of Central Pennsylvania for 30 years. All of the biggest bucks I’ve ever killed in my life have been taken close to my home outside of Philadelphia and smaller patches of woods.

I’m glad I found this channel. It’s awesome to see there’s other guys out there hunting backyard and big woods buck. Friends told me I was crazy bc I have 3 cemeteries I been hunting now 3 years right on the edge of town with houses on both sides just a few hundred yards away at the one place and got nice buck the last 2 years there. I’m the only one allowed to hunt it but I’m thankful I have about 7 different properties in my county to hunt witch all have nice buck. Last year I got a nice 120 inch cemetery 8 point and the year before a 140 inch cemetery 9 point. What makes it special for me is my grandmother is buried in this graveyard probably about 60 yards from my stand. Last year the 8 point I killed ran over the hill and died in a guys backyard on his daughters playground lmfao. He was pretty cool about it thankfully but it’s a story I’ll always remember.

It's obvious you're not the only one pursuing this animal. I feel like the fact that he lives in other people's yards most of the time is no different than some of the deer you already hunt in these Urban areas. I hunt in Urban areas in Michigan also, but if it's legal to hunt them where we're hunting them, I say go for it! I'd love to see him! Best of luck!

16 hour drive. 32 hour trips. Lee you have all of our opinions on the yes side. You deserve this deer more than anything. Urban hunting is what you do. Keep up the good content. You have done your part with this deer with the cameras and putting your money into gas for your trips with this deer. YES YES YES.

Great offseason video...the grind you guys do is inspiring! Go after him boys, it's so challenging to harvest these big mature whitetails no matter where they live. You guys do a great job of documenting the whole process and sharing the full story with everyone. Filming hunts is tough because you have to kill them both as a hunter and a videographer. Hope you guys get him and do it on video! Look forward to this coming fall. We are excited to hunt in Illinois this season on all of our new plots and stands that we've worked hard to establish. Good luck to you guys in the coming season! Get after em!

Y’all do everything by the book. If any hunting page deserves a shot at a buck like that it’s y’all. Everyone is gonna have haters but nobody can doubt y’all doing everything the right way.

Your video’s, based in Faith, has got me interested in hunting. I’m 44, never deer hunted in my life, but thank you for what you’ve done to show me something, from an angle I’ve never seen, that I think I would enjoy On the deer, if you have seen him this year, and he is TRULY a potential world record deer, in my mind it’s a once or twice in a lifetime opportunity deer. So no matter what the public thinks, every single outdoorsman will understand why you went after and hopefully shoot this deer. If he isn’t back to world record status, let it go and find another monster buck sir. Just my opinion. Prayers and good luck from East TN on your upcoming season!!

Go after him Lee, if need be you could call the Local Warden after the shot and have him follow with the track and retrieval just for proof that everything is legal and legit. The only haters would be the people who are jealous of you killing the deer, other hunters who may have been after the deer, or anti-hunters.

I'm in agreement with 99.9% of people on here. GO FOR IT!!!! You have one thing on your side that most people don't, and that's you videotape your hunt. Haters are gonna hate no matter who kills it, and eventually someone will if others are strictly targeting him. Better you have it on camera to prove it was done legally and ethically and somewhat shut them up, rather than someone that doesn't videotape it and the skepticism sets in with people saying it was done illegally which would be worse for all hunters. BTW me and my 4 yo. son love your content.

A deer living in the hood is like a mascot😅😅😂

You have every right and it would be so cool to capture that hunt for a world record deer on camera. The downside would be that we’d probably see less content from you this year if he really is that elusive and it takes that much of your time to get there, but you don’t get opportunities to kill a world record deer often if ever in a lifetime, so I’d say you have to go for him if he bounces back from the injury and becomes a world class deer again!

Yes! Your group is more respectful to the animal then 99% of hunters out there. You will have video and proof you did the right thing and hunted the deer properly and respectfully. The deers story deserves to be told. Good luck this year and get after him!!!!

Who wouldn't want to have you back? You seems like a great guy Lee!

Next time but 10 bags of those peaches! Use them in your door knocking adventures.

Go for it! Just make sure that you specify that you are hunting him in the correct city where hunting is allowed. Don't be scared about getting cancelled. You have plenty of loyal followers who won't allow that to happen. We know that you and your team are professionals when it comes to keeping hunting in a positive light and won't jeopardize loosing this lifestyle over foolishness. GOOD LUCK!

I’d definitely give it a shot, given you’ll likely make that a big episode (hopefully), the story behind the Buck should illustrate the ethicality of harvesting the deer. From what you were telling us, you’re going to follow the rules and do things the right way which is the best representation of hunting as everything falls within the laws

I think you should go for it man! I appreciate your spirit about wanting to show a right image, that’s definitely very important especially in situations like this. I think if you have a good spirit about it and are ethical as always then go for it dude, you deserve it

The pizza thing on the truck is hilarious lol

Go for it! Y’all dedicate more time and effort than anyone I’ve ever seen. I’ve been a subscriber for several years and I am 100% positive that there is not an unethical bone in your body! Thank y’all so very much for your hard work just bringing these videos to all of us!

Lee, Seek One is a world class production and in my feeble opinion I saw y’all have earned the right to pursue a world class deer! Filming hunts only help educate everyone and prove the ethical route that Seek One has always taken!! GO GET YOUR WORLD CLASS BUCK!!!! I’ll be praying for your success!!!

IMO, whose to say that deer may just not travel farther this year? It’s a very common thing said but if you don’t get him then someone else will. With the platform you guys offer to us all, I don’t see why you wouldn’t if it’s all legal. If this deer wasn’t a potential world record would you have to question it? It comes down to what your ethics are, not anyone else’s comment nor mine. If you feel it is ethical and you would go for him if he was in your hometown then why not do it here also. With all that being said and watching you guys for several years, I say, go for it man. I understand what your saying but in the end it will make some people mad regardless but I would almost bet it’s not the first time and guarantee it will not be the last. GOOD LUCK THIS YEAR, and regardless what you choose, all your followers will understand either way!!!

Tip instead of cutting open corn bag and dumping in your carry bag. Just slide whole corn bag in no different it all fit in when poured. So same if just put the whole bag in. In case green bag rips its in other bag so dont spill out. Love the show

Definitely go after that world record buck. You work very hard at hunting and painting it in the best light. If you have a chance to legally hunt this deer then do it.

In my opinion I think you should definitely go for the buck it would be a great story from beginning to end and you have a lot of respect for the wild you don’t let anything go to waste and help out as much as you can and thank the community properly go for it Lee

Bro if anyone deserves to hunt a world record deer it’s you man. Every video you show how much compassion you have towards these animals. I love how you give all the glory to God as well. Go get u a big un’.

I say that you definitely go after him because if you don’t get him then somebody else probably will.

Definitely go after him if your able to get a deer that spends 97% of his time in a non hunting area and your able to take him in a different area it just shows how much work you put towards him and shows that you deserve him that much

I would absolutely go for it. With as much documentation as y’all do, I believe there will be absolutely no way anyone can say you have done anything wrong. I also believe that your dedication to a deer that is so hard to hunt will put you in a better situation to have that opportunity of closing on him. I know I want to see you have the opportunity to be sitting behind a world class whitetail and I’m sure a lot of other people do aswell!

I'd say if there is a chance to hunt the buck, look through the trail cam and find out when he ventures away from the nonhuntable area. If you can narrow that down, then go for it.

All i can think about is those dirty magnets digging into the paint on your truck lol we definitely wanna see you knock out that buck

Lee I personally feel that as long as you do everything legally to harvest deer (The one you’re referring to in this video or any of the other deer you hunt) you should hunt him. Like you said, other hunters are hunting him, so you should have every right to try and harvest him too. Shouldn’t matter what kind of platform you are on when it comes to hunting huge or any size deer. Because at the end of the day it’s called hunting not killing. Good luck and I hope and pray that you have the opportunity to harvest him and we get to see it on your channel.

Do it. Who gives a crap what other people think. You guys have such a strong following that a couple of Karen’s complaining is not going to outweigh how amazing chasing that buck down would be for both y’all and y’all’s fan base. Also, we need a seek one diet and workout video. Lee is shredded in the most ungay way ever

Bro we live in the area and drive our golf cart past your damn limo all the time lmao. Finally searched “camo limo” and knew it was y’all after seeing you shoot in the driveway. Gonna go down the rabbit hole of videos now. Cheers from a neighbor

Go for it! There will always be naysayers regarding hunting any animal let alone a potential world class Buck. You will regret not taking the hunt for it....especially if some other hunter from around the area harvests it. Press on!

100% go after him! My 16 year old son loves following you and has learned so much from your videos. Thank you for doing it the right way and being a great role model. Much appreciated.

Go get em Lee. Its a deer of a lifetime, and if done legally, no one will ever doubt you. Hope to see the video of it this year...

Absolutely you better be going after this deer! Your reputation and ethics will speak for themselves if questioned. There will always be haters in the hunting industry but something tells me they don't garner much of your attention. Good luck if you decide to go after him and God Bless!

Y’all made your name doing that kind of hunting to begin with! He’s still hard to get and the majority of people who know and watch y’all will not be thrown at all by the yard thing. As long as it’s fun and challenging for you- do it.

What you do is a life long passion, you teach, you work hard and push others like you to do the same. In the hunting world there will always be some kind of love and heart ache. The way I see it this buck needs to live on its legacy, and by that I mean on the wall for everyone to see and another story to tell. People will hate no matter what you do. Go get em, and I can guarantee you there’s enough people behind you that being canceled won’t be an option! Go give it hell and get em!

You guys have an awesome channel and put love and dedication into your hunts. Every video where any of you harvest an animal you show your respect and honor towards the animal, so with that I’d say go after the buck. Some people may piss and moan but that’s how the non hunting community is. They don’t understand the dedication and respect hunters have for wildlife.

You have to hunt that deer. If you aren’t breaking any rules, then that buck is everything seek one stands for. It’s urban hunting, there’s always going to be some people who don’t like it. Pray about it, I’m sure you’ll get clarity

I would go for it. If the deer runs back to someones yard and expires then you could be in a tight spot if you haven't discussed that possibility with the neighbors.

I loved seeing all the rejections. Makes me glad I am not the only one and shows all the hard work you guys do. Keep it up.

I’d say go for it. You guys are an inspiration to hunters like myself and from the story you have with this deer it would be great content and a great learning experience for people who have to deal with no hunting zones and gives them hope in harvesting a big mature deer outside of said zones

Go get him! You have a city skyline in your logo, we started following you because you kill monsters in urban areas.

Love your channel and understand the dilemma. Thoughts of the Dr. that killed that lion outside the refuge a few years back instantly came to mind. Would be a no for me, personally, but wouldn’t fault another for following his heart. Best of luck if you go after him!

You and the guys do every hunt in a very respectful and legal manner. If that deer is coming into a known legal area I’d 100% go after him! You’d still have my respect as a hunter and a company in the industry! Can’t wait to see the video

I believe you should definitely let me go after it 😂🙏🏻 Go get ‘em man!!🔥🔥

Yes, You will second guess yourself if some Jo Blow goes an takes an A on a project that you have put some much blood, sweat, and tears into!! Looking forward to the seeing him in the back of your truck!!!

If we are talking about the same deer, which everything adds up for it to be the same one. I heard that said city is allowing hunting this year and every hunter in the state wants to go for it. I say send it, would be a great video and story since there is so much footage of this deer.

The way you work hard. Go for it the passion you have for deer is unbelievable. You work your tail off. Do everything legal and there’s nothing that anyone can say.

I’ll be honest , I’ve been watching your show for a long time and you’ve never hesitated on a buck of your dreams, you’ve dedicated your life to hunting mature deer , you’ve put a lot of time and money into this. I promise if I was you , I wouldn’t hesitate not one second to have a chance to harvest a world class buck . Whomever has a problem with it (as deer hunters) shouldn’t be hunting in the first place . Do whatever makes you happy man. And If it’s chasing after this deer I’m here for it man and I would believe everyone following along would too.

My 5 yr old boy loves the big buck content, he calls them killer 🦌. Lol but we were just talking about polywags in his new ranger Rick book. He'd be stoked to get that card.

Just pray hard you'll get the answer Lee. Keep Seeking

Sounds like you did everything the right way. You guys made a brand of hunting city environments and that is what drew me to your page. I say go for it. You guys keep me motivated to keep pushing for more and better opportunities. Think of it this way, the good lord let him make it through getting shot for a reason, that reason my be so you can film it for all of us to get to see his story. You guys keep being you!

Definitely go after him. Yall are some of the most respectful people and always give the hunting community a great name!

Don’t forget about Pops “don’t ever give up on a buck”

It may be against all odds! But I’m already rooting for you to outsmart this seemingly unkillable monster buck. And the other hunters who are pursuing him. Your fans know you will make them proud! Carpe diem!

if you are in your legal boundaries then yes, you may never have another chance to kill a world record deer and if you piss some people off who cares. Your following will only increase and your followers will definitely stay loyal to you. SeekOne is one of the most informative and entertaining hunting shows/channels i’ve ever watched. Love what you guys do keep it up.👍

Go after that buck!! It's still a wild animal no matter how many yards it stays in, and it's definitely a smart buck to rarely leave that area. So, I think it would be just as much of a challenge as any other deer! Good luck this fall!

Get him dude, you work your tail off locating the deer, but more difficult , the chance to hunt it. Good luck bro

I've been checking for a new upload after this video but no dice. Can't wait for the first hunt of the year

Lee brother, if you're doing everything legal like you guys always do then you don't have to worry about anything! Go after the deer and best of luck to you in the pursuit of this buck!
