I wanted to post the film we just produced from our 2014 Montana Elk Hunt this fall. We consider it DIY but I guess that's debatable with some people HA.
I am sure several of you, like many I know, are always talking about going on an elk hunt but never do. We had zero experience two years ago and just went and it has been an awesome learning experience. There was actually a guy on Bowsite that pointed us in the area we hunt now and we are very thankful for that. We have been very lucky to harvest an animal as we didn't expect to and on some days on our first trip we didn't even see elk. I guess what I am trying to say is that there is a lot of public land in Montana with elk so if you are contemplating going, just go for it one year. You won't ever be fully prepared but it will be worth it and addicting.
We tried to make this video accurately reflect what a public land elk hunt is like but realize we were very lucky to tag out in 4 days. Thanks again for the support, we hope you enjoy the video! Let us know what questions you may have.

How far was your shot? What is your archery set-up? How far did he run after he was hit? How come the cameraman never gets to hunt?:)
Best of Luck, Jeff
Thanks for sharing.
I love seeing real hunts.
Congrats, Pete
Sheesh...we have to stump out the equivalent of $8.32 a gallon in the UK :(
Oh...and the video was really great as well by the way; thanks a million for sharing
I paid $2.65 USD per gallon to fill up this week. I am sure many here in the South and West USA pay less that that. It make the decision to drive out West to elk hunt a little easier.
A good illustration to anyone who says bow noise doesn't matter,too...
It was a 45 yard shot. It is a Hoyt Carbon with VAP Arrows and G5 Montec Broadheads.
One of these hunts it will be my turn! I get a pretty big kick out of capturing everything on video so I am content. He is a better hunter and I am better at video so we just play to our strengths so we can do stuff like this. That being said I am gaining points in quite a few states and my time will come!
Well done.
Amen to that Midwest!!
Good luck and good hunting for the next season
