Another great one guys! Fun to see you excited about great hunts and top notch shooting 😊

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching!!

[@krisaunedi4920]

WOW!!! Insane vlog you did there with Yogi bear!!! I'm building a custom 300 PRC rifle build and my friend after seeing what you did to the bears all I can say is WOW!!!

[@MuleyFreak]

The 300 PRC is a great cartridge! You are your buddies will enjoy the heck out of that one.

[@crookedridgephotography2797]

Man what a cool video! Some awesome hunts over the years!

[@MuleyFreak]

For sure! Thnx for watching!!!

[@rodger602]

Great video! Thanks for the tips!! Do another one complete with some GPS locations 😂

[@MuleyFreak]

😂🤣

[@CRR8980]

Just sent it to my buddy that’s got his spring bear tag for Oregon, hope he watches and learns from your video!🐻🇺🇸👍🏻

[@MuleyFreak]

Right on!!! 👍 thnx for sharing!

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Great video 🔥

[@MuleyFreak]

*Thanks for co-starring in it.*

[@TheOrangeKou]

Shewwww! Love the video. Beautiful scenes from previous hunts and important tips (that actually apply to all hunters). I'm wondering what the shot placement was on that #8 bear.

[@MuleyFreak]

High shoulder through the top in through the vital.

[@johnecrouch2671]

Spring bear used to be my favorite hunt because it got my hunting season started. Hunted Idaho last year but no luck. My go to rifle has been a browning 300 wsm.

[@MuleyFreak]

Why do you think you were unsuccessful?

[@johnecrouch2671]

@@MuleyFreak Mostly it was question of timing. We actually used an outfitter that I’ve hunted with before. It’s a combination baiting and spot and stalk. But, we went earlier than we have before and spring was late coming to that part of Idaho. Snow made some places unreachable and green up was slow too. So bears weren’t very active yet and my time was limited.

[@MuleyFreak]

Timing the bloom is a big part of success for spot and stalk pursuits! Thanks for weighing in!

[@Gavinmumford]

Love the bear hunts! Are there any backcountry opportunities for a resident in Utah? What other states have OTC bear tags?

[@MuleyFreak]

Lots of states if you really look into it. Even Utah has "some" OTC bear opportunities.

[@peterhrkal8165]

Super video, thanks. I don't love the ELDx as a hunting bullet. Id shoot terminal ascents or copper mono for

[@MuleyFreak]

#Hornady ELD-X have been nothing but fire for us and we've taken a lot of animals with them at close range all the way out to 1500 yards +.

[@bduclos]

What's your preferred rear shooting bag for taking the long backcountry shots with optimized stabilization? I run a Long Range Only bag often but never for a serious backpack hunt as it is just too heavy to carry. I would love to find a similar bag that is ultralight if such a bag exists. Thanks.

[@MuleyFreak]

We've been using this one recently: tscustomsrifles.com/product/lightweight-field-shooting-bags

[@reginaldpayne7588]

Way to go guys. Hunt them so they don't hunt us😊 question: does the bear die from sheer terror/alarm of being shot and suffered heart attack or is it purely round power and placement; or does it just bleed out? Just hard to believe something as tenacious as a bear 🐻 dying from single shot.

[@303parkerhale]

Just curious. Are you guys shooting factory loads or roll your owns? That was some fantastic footage.

[@MuleyFreak]

We’re shooting #hornady factory precision hunter for the most part. Thanks for watching!

[@radekskacha8143]

Hello. Nice job guys. Very nice video. It can be seen that it is a strong animal. After the blow, it always ran until it died. Perfect adrenaline, congratulations. Very nice, thank you😀😀👍👍👍

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching!

[@parkerschaaf]

This will be my first time hunting bear, do you guys have any tips on where to e scout for them?

[@MuleyFreak]

We will put together a video for that soon...

[@wyattgable13]

I got a question I’m thinking about getting a bear / backcountry rifle and am 14 would you guys recommend 7 PRC or 300 PRC with muzzle brake.

[@MuleyFreak]

Hey Wyatt, I would recommend a 7 PRC personally. Very manageable recoil and great ballistics with high BC bullets.

[@wyattgable13]

@@MuleyFreakAwsome thank you for the response, love your videos and information🙏🙏

[@MuleyFreak]

No problem! Check out our latest podcast -> open.spotify.com/episode/24ppcFOKOE4d6COSg5xaOb?si=hqMOBueIScCbxR0LcSZQZg

[@parkerschaaf]

I'm planning to hunt some public land in idaho, do you think a 6.5 Creedmoor is too light?

[@MuleyFreak]

Creedmoor with a 143 gr #hornady ELD-X is money. Keep it under 500-600 yards though I would say…

[@parkerschaaf]

awesome, thanks guys🙏@@MuleyFreak

So welcome!

The state black bear record, and perhaps the world record, was broken in November, 1998, when Coy Parton killed an 880-pound bear near Vanceboro in Craven County. The bear exceeded the old state record by 160 pounds.

Why don't they allow bear hunting in mexico!?

[@MuleyFreak]

Ask the Mexican Government! 🤷‍♂️

[@Brycenwhorton]

@@MuleyFreak all of the bears are in the cartel that's probably why the government protects them!! 🤣

[@MuleyFreak]

They treat bears as if they are Siberian tigers - that's why.

You lost me at 1000 yds!

@@nathanadrian7797 gotta have a few haters too lol

[@nathanadrian7797]

@@MuleyFreak I don't hate you, I'm just not interested in watching long range hunting, good luck to you, both in hunting and your you tube channel.

[@MuleyFreak]

Folks choose to hate on things they don't agree with and don't understand entirely. I'm not saying you're that guy, but if most folks knew how difficult a precision shot like that was they would have a heckuva lot more respect for it. We don't recommend folks taking long shots as most aren't equipped for it, nor have the skills for it.

[@backcountryaddiction5318]

That 1008 yd bear you hit, is not the one you show in the recovery. 2 different colors bro. I admire what you boys do, but don't blow sunshine.

[@MuleyFreak]

It actually is, bud. Exact same one.

[@PourVagabond]

Definitely a completely different color looked more like the one next to it that he didn’t get

[@Sulungu-sulunguu]

Booooo, freaky fraud ​@@MuleyFreak

[@mikel.4885]

Shooting something at 1000 yards isnt hunting its just shooting

[@MuleyFreak]

That’s your opinion.

[@mikel.4885]

@MuleyFreak dont get me wrong its great shooting and something i probably couldnt do or want to do....the whole point of hunting is to get as close as possible to your game

Warum müssen diese Tiere sterben?

[@richarddeslauriers3160]

You say you shot a bear at 1000 yards plus, bs the bear you then show is not the bear you shot at. Terrible, you obviously never retrieved that big chocolate you shot at 1000 yards.

[@MuleyFreak]

You’re clueless.

[@mikeelsner504]

@@MuleyFreaki must be clueless also.

[@redstone1999]

@@MuleyFreak, amazing how some people assume just because they did/can not do it, it can not possibly happen. Going on my 1st spring bear hunt in NB this year. I have iron sight only, but have a pop up dial in to 1200 yards.

[@MuleyFreak]

Exactly! Especially since three of us were actually there, and Richard was not lol. Good luck on your first ever hunt!
