The best part of this episode was after the missed shot as they both sit there looking entirely disgusted and disappointed, Steve goes “hey, look at the way that sun is hitting those mountains.” As if to say “it’s okay, man. How lucky are we just to be here?” I love this guy.

You could literally see the disappointment both of their faces. And they were just so down in the dumps, and then Steve says, "Look at he Sun hitting those mountains." Love this guy.

The moose is just trucking along singing to himself "I'm getting me some tonight oh yah. Gettin some tonight I am" Booom....lol

Who else been waiting on this episode...?

I don’t hunt. I’m not opposed to it, in fact I’d like to at some point. I enjoy cooking and the outdoors so it feels like a great fit. If the guys who work on this show read this, I just want to extend my deepest gratitude for making this show. It feels so much more real than any other outdoor show I’ve watched. I understand we only get to see the highlights (it’s no easy task to distill 10 days into 40 minutes) but there are so many moments where I am in awe of the fact that Steve, Cal, Janis and all the others who have made appearances on this show are active participants in the ecosystem they show off rather than being simple observers. So again, thank you and happy hunting!

This is a lifetime dream for myself. It's steve's season opener.

"look at those mountains" so much conveyed, so little said

Right at the lowest depths of disappointment, “Look at that sun hitting those mountains.” Sums up the beauty of hunting, success or no success.

I swear one of my favorite parts is when he speaks at the end of the videos and just lays down some heat!!

Man, idk if anyone else mentioned this but the music is just beautiful.

Without a doubt, the best Hunting, Outdoors and Adventure Chanel there is. Man! I would pay for having a life like this.

The day Rinella sells his gear and starts golfing 🏌️‍♂️ is the day hell 🥶 freezes over.

You never knew how much you had to poop until a new meat eater comes out

Hard work paid off congrats.

Watching Meateater with a glass of bourbon on a Friday night....life is good

Another hunt behind my computer! I shot that moose with my mouse arrow about a dozen times. I'm becoming a much better keyboard cowboy day by day! Thanks Steve!!

The young mans face was gleaming at the end of the video. You could tell earlier his distraught from knicking the younger bull, now he hit 2 nice shots on a big bull in a beautiful spot. I hope he doesn’t forget either feeling in the future, both keep us genuine.

Steve saying it was the absolute worst trip he’d ever been on is a big slap in the face to the other guy lol. Some of the best hunting trips I’ve ever been on, we hadn’t downed any game, but enjoy each other’s company.

Steven is such a great guy and the best buddy ever. Just by saying ''Look at the sun hitting those mountains...'' he meant so much more. He really loves the outdoors, the wild side of life, he really adores the nature even if he's just looking at it. What a guy...

"Look at the sun, hitting those mountains." What a poetic moment.. this show is so beautiful.

When he said no blood .damn I felt that

I once had a chance to go to Alaska in 1986 after I got out of the Army, as life goes, I never made it there. You guys are living my dream.

Wow, every episode of this show brings a tear to my eye. I've never had much in terms of family, so there was no one around to teach me how to hunt, and the family I do have refused to take me out because I'm a woman. I would give anything to be in the hills with these men, appreciating all that this world has to offer, and eating the most responsibly sourced meat on the planet. One day I'll be there, one day.

Was going to going hunting today. However after a 11 day work week, I slept through my alarm. This has cheered me up

How you make hunting a romance makes it just seem so right. God bless steve.

The sunset quote by Steve.. then that setting by the river during the harvest of the moose... man, that’s it right there.

this is one of my favorite episodes. i bet moose tastes better cooked over an open fire alongside an alaskan river.

This has to be one of the best episodes you guys have ever made.

I dont post or care to, but Steve, your passion for the outdoors brought a tear to my eyes when u said, " look at how the sun hits the hills." Cannot tell u how many times I forget to enjoy the little things and appreciate what it means to be outdoors. Thank you

Gotta love the redemption arc over these two episodes. Great hunt and great storytelling once again...

10:00 is single handed the coolest thing I’ve ever seen on a hunting video. That moose looks like 5 miles away and comes right in.

That bull went through so much shit to get some ass just to get shot. Poor guy deserves a salute, what a trooper 😂

Such a great story teller. You almost smell that fresh mountain air and smell the fish cooking over the fire.

you know its a great day when they upload

That opening scene. Looked like that was the hardest thing Steve had to ever tell someone.....that they missed......to another experienced Hunter.

@18:55 I know what you mean. I'm not a hunter but I'm really into fishing and some days when the fishing is extremely tough, I just think about why my nephews and I even took that trip and maybe I should sell all my gear lol. But then out of nowhere my nephews catch a couple 3-4 pound bass and to see their excitement and joy in fighting and holding such a fish brings the passion all back and I realize again the reason why I love fishing so much. Then watching the sunset while we're all out there having fun and enjoying our time with each other just brings it all together and it's the perfect way to end the day.

Great time to upload, got class in an hour.

I love that you don't hide the mistakes you all make. Just reminds me of mistakes I've made and learned.

Steve, you are obviously the “star” of this series, but your videographers and writers deserve most of the credit. Please keep up the awesome work. Thank you.

That bull moose coming to that call was just thrilling to see happen.

My bucket list is getting looonger with each episode....... thanks!!!

As a professional moose hunting guide from Newfoundland, Canada. Great job boys. There’s no better feeling than when you have that moose coming on a string, just playing him like a fiddle. Our moose don’t get as big as Alaskan moose, but we sure have a lot. Densest population in North America, my camp has 3 other guides in it, we have 4 hunters a week for 5 weeks each year. 100% success rate in the last 6 years.

“Just gonna have to keep hittin him; he’s got a short attention span” Exactly what all my teachers said…

Can we get the full 8 hrs video of this bull coming in please..was a beautiful thing to watch

That's an epic hunt. Rollercoaster of emotions on this one

A bad hunt can turn into an awesome hunt in a heartbeat.

I've never had moose but my mouth is watering

Unbelievably good content. The experiences you had on this trip can not be described in words. Thanks for sharing such amazing images

Unbelievable content again Steve! Best channel on youtube

6:06 sounded like the greatest cry ever dude

Never a disappointment. Thank you Mr. Rinella. The way you hunt an the words you use too discribe the success. Means so much to us average Hunter's.

Count on the wildlife biologist to take the wildest shot in MeatEater history. Classic.

Strong statement here but, Steve is the greatest to ever do it and Meat Eater is the greatest, most informative and educational hunting/cooking show of all time.

You can guess that Steve was not joking about quitting hunting at the time. He look tired af and it's his first hunt after contracting trichinosis, must've been a bit depressed. Glad he could get his Moose to get the flame back.

Steve, there are no words to describe your show! The hunting , the filming, and the cooking!!! Keep it going brother.

The redemption, honestly happy for him bro looked so upset when he missed that smaller bull, it was just natures way of sayin hold up I got u

Now that I have started filming some outdoors adventures I have a huge appreciation for this show. It's so hard to hunt and film. You guys have done an awesome job. Congrats!!

The moose said I’m getting me some yum yum , nah your ass getting a bullet .

Probably one of the best episode ever, thanks for that!

They are so lucky the river was that height and right there! Meat looked amazing!

Brant is one hell of a Hunter. You can just tell.

What an episode! Having just lost a deer last time I went out, I can so commiserate with Brents and miss and feel his pain wondering what he's done to it. Missing is tough to get over so to hit the bug buck after that takes balls.

Finally. I made the mistake of watch part 1 as soon as you posted it.

Steve’s a good friend letting Brandt take a shot on a moose he spotted even after botching a previous attempt

This is a hunt that brings a tear of joy to the eye. What an adventure.

One of my favorites Steve. Thank you.

Has to be one of the best episodes of meateater.. well done boys!!

5:14 that was the perfect thing Steve could of said at that moment.

Gave me shivers, watching this one. Nice work Meat Eater crew.

Awesome moose so glad you both had such a memorable ending to your hunting trip.stay safe

I thought i had an "entry level" rifle, but looks like he's also using a Remington 780. Hell yeah!

My face in 5:04 when I loose a scrunchie 🤦‍♀️

when the moose fell, i was laughin and goin "good shit, now the hard work begins!"

This was real hunting. One of my fav episodes

Dang i didnt think yall were going to ever get this uploaded, thank you...enjoyed it..

how satisfaying it is when you worked hard all the week and finaly got one at the very last day !!!!

Fantastic video Steve.. You just do things right, everything about your show is just right for me

that was a wonderful episode!!! Excellent!

I've been waiting for this exciting episode , finally now watching

Ironically, golf is the same way. You might say, "Maybe I'll sell my golf clubs and take up hunting." lol

Steve has the best job in the world!

Great hunt fellas, I am with you on letting Brant take the bull, he needed a boost. Injuring or missing can take a mental toll. Congratulations.

Wow that’s awesome ! Cant even imagine the feeling of being able to take that moose

By far one of my favorite episode!!!!

An outstanding segment. Well done Meateater crew.

Another meat eater episode to make my day

Gotta love the poetic Rinella outro.

This hunt was insane, even I was thrilled watching through the screen! Don’t do that again Steve! Lol Nice hunt guys!

Hands down my favorite episode!

Best episode so far. Felt like I was there.

We all wish we had more time. More time to hunt. More time to fish. More time to live. Love this show!

Steve and the crew is just spoiling us rotten with these episodes. What an awesome trip to enjoy with a hot cup of morning coffee and some breakfast. I also have to mention something not being recognized enough: your choice of music to back up the show. I wish you'd make an official soundtrack list available on Spotify. It's that absolutely perfect mix of somber, thoughtful mountain blues and cheery blue grass. To me it's half the experience when watching an episode. Great music helps make a great show.

He'll yeah,been waiting for it

Literally the dream.

Best hunting duo ever!

Steve let him have that bull because he needed more after that miss. Keep I mind that Steve paid for this hunt. That was the best part to me.

I hunted Kudu and Oryx on our farm in Namibia when I was growing up, but that was so much easier than what you have to go through. Hats off to you intrepid hunters. But I dream of shooting an Eland one day.

That was awesome!!

Hands down the best hunting video on YT.

he did it again. KING
