12 Days Solo Hunting a Dangerous Wilderness

[@ScottAllison-bu1py]

Just want to let you know that you are the reason I drag my 49 year old butt out of bed at 5 am to hike with a pack, in the Dunedin winter so I can get fit enough to get out there and get amongst the beautiful mountains we have in New Zealand. Thank you for the inspiration and hope to see you on the tops one day

[@haf3113]

how is it going? you been to the mountains yet?

[@ScottAllison-bu1py]

@@haf3113 thanks for checking in.. just spent 5 days in Fiordland with some good mates. No deer but plenty of crayfish and awesome adventure

[@stevenvangarderen463]

How can any dislike this video. Are they crazy? This is quality hunting, well filmed and edit. It is a highlight for me every fortnight. Keep it up.

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Thank you mate I really appreciate this!

[@derrickphillips2369]

I very much enjoy your videos, i do have a gear question. What is the piece your screw onto the end of your barrel?

[@astondriver]

some people dislike the regular, product advertising. I find it mildly annoying but I accept it because JE needs to be able to fund his trips. I find his videos good at story telling. and we fail to appreciate he's climbed the hill, set up the camera, climbed down and then back up again for the footage.😊

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

@@derrickphillips2369 a suppressor to keep the noise down when shooting

[@cammes]

I'm not a hunter nor usually interested in hunting but these videos are insanely immersive, the quality, editing, environment and the way you let us know why and what you're doing at all times, there's almost no entertainment like this online. Just blown away by these videos mate! So thanks for what you do. p.s. Love the way you seem to respect the animals at the same time.

[@wombatgaming2647]

Absolutely love how frustrated you got talking about not being able to show the cutting of wild game. Absolutely love your videos mate! Keep up the good work, love from Australia

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Glad you enjoyed it mate! Cheers for the comment as well 🤙🏻

[@Sammy-iw7do]

yeh i love to see that process it make it so much better, plus a little cook up

[@markrivers3604]

Hey Joe have you checked out meat eater a big you tube hunting program in the USA he does the butchering and cooking, he has even had dedicated cooking wild game episodes is there a way you could set up a USA based you tube account to be able to show the whole process because I know a lot of people like the whole journey, I know I do l.

[@tristan363]

Newbie hunter here. First vid of you I watch, won't be the last. Can only imagine how much hard work goes into the filming of this. The stress of taking the shot and making sure your camera is onto it, amazingly well done.

[@nic22m]

With the heart beat catched by the audio… Insane! Great content and dedication… not easy to do while filming quality content like that.

[@PJB-]

by far the best channel i’ve come across, the quality of the content and the whole concept of how you make the videos and the story telling, just so good and satisfying to watch. keep it up brother. love from texas

[@jeffffro7674]

The camera work at 7:08 is other worldly, or at the very least, like you’ve climbed over heaven itself! SPEECHLESS

[@kennygust2322]

Yet another epic episode we really are blessed to have someone like you out there doing this maybe something to add is the taxidermy side of things who you could recommend or what to look for in a taxidermist or who to follow cheers mate

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Thanks mate I appreciate it, I've got two close friends who own taxidermy business's, the first is Zim at NZ Taxidermy for all round species and expediting and also Gene at Backridge Taxidermy who is specializing in wild boars

[@markbullough3554]

This is by far the best hunting content on KZbin. New Zealand is a beautiful country, and I'm jealous that you get to call it your home.

[@ScottysGoneWalkabout]

Awesome vid mate. I’ve been binging your vids for the last couple of weeks. Hands down some of the best hunting vids on the tube. I hope people realise the amount of effort you must put into these vids, having to manage multiple cameras and tripods on top of your hunting gear. Massive props to ya mate. Also love the outro where you answer a few questions. Great idea. Might have to steel that one for my channel haha. Looking forward to the next one mate 🤙🏼

[@raytaverner]

Love the videos you make @JE Wilds.. 👋and as a fellow hunter from South Africa, your content you make shows you take pride in your animals you harvest. Keep up the great vids, look forward to more!!

[@chital_shikari3163]

Awesome video as usual. Thanks for the shout out and reading my comment!

[@JarodThurley]

Thank you Joe. I recently started hunting with a mate and I love it. So good being out in nature and providing for yourself. You inspire me to get out there.

[@StuartWithey]

Great episode as always you inspire me to to finally go out hunting myself being from the UK it's a lot harder to do so but hopefully it won't be long until I can fulfil my dream in doing that and booking a hunting trip in the beautiful country you call home keep up the amazing work looking forward to the next one 👍

[@claphamboysoutdoor]

You've well and truly earned all the follows, likes, and comments, Joe. Appreciate you taking us along for such an amazing trip and sharing the ups and downs of plying your trade on KZbin in this crazy world we live in. 👍👍

[@damiandiaz2630]

Watching your videos all the way from Texas! Love how you portray what New Zealand alpine hunting is like. Can’t wait for the next video! Keep it up!💪🏻

[@davidqzac1566]

Man!, what a video! it's amazing how you articulate the story over the days and keep the hunting narrative constantly moving in the same direction. Serious man unreal. Absolute legend. Dave from AUS! also loving the post episodes talk really gives that insight to both the sacrifices and the future proofing you're doing for your family. legend

[@flashgordonrox2102]

Every time I see the JE Wilds video alert on my face I get so hyped and what a vid! that was an incredible shot! the end was great as well, so refreshing to get to see the behind the scenes. Loving the daily vlogs on insta too!! Regarding the point you made about the butchering, I know some youtubers make a separate video to show that stuff along side the main video, not sure if you've considered. So much love for these vids!! From the UK

[@MiguelCabrerizoc]

I have been following you from Spain for a while now. Your work is spectacular. Thank you for showing us all those wonderful places and all the advice.

[@NickReynolds-m4x]

Awesome content man thoroughly enjoy watching all your videos!cant wait to see the next one

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Glad to hear it mate I appreciate it!

[@rodgeorge7244]

Another great episode in the life of JE Wilds I always enjoy your vids Joe the hunting and the fishing are always very entertaining and informative ,keep them coming .

[@leeviparkkinen8038]

Awesome video once again! Love from Finland and you certainly have added hunting in nz mountains to my life bucket list

[@jaredpittolo93]

Another awesome video man! I’m always frothing to get home and watch your new vids when I get the notification on my phone. Keep up the good work man

[@matthewkenyon4451]

As a rank amateur hunter ,cheers bro your videos are helping me hunt better ,an giving me awesome entertainment, nearly every video i learn something new ,i get enough meat animals an one day ur info will help me get a trophy, thankyou regards matt

[@jrnhelland6045]

Last day of holiday in Turkey and what better way to chill than in the shade with your latest video. I’m a fan! Looking forward to the next one 👊🏼

[@iKqrri]

I don’t really know non bout hunting but watching these typa videos are interesting

[@Ninoy2059]

Good price for all that wait. Breath taking landscape. Job well done.

[@russelljackson4101]

Bloody great work champ everyone waits for your vids all the work you put in is so worth it

[@marklong930]

Hey Joe! Always love your vids and really like the outro's too. This was an epic hunt and really appreciate you taking us along with you. Absolutely stunning country to hunt in so I get what you say about how amazing the experience is even if you are unlucky with not getting an animal. Sorry to hear how YT restricts you showing the butchering. If anything it shows how the animals are not wasted and hunters aren't just in it for the kill or trophy. Keep up the amazing work.

[@jamdwan]

Amazing again bro. Episodes just keep getting better and better. Can't wait for the next one. Could you possibly go over how you get the range in the binos and then how you make the adjustments on the scope of the rifle? Cheers, Jamie

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Thanks Jamie, I will try cover this for you on the next outro I do

[@NotAPro-ro2tu]

I get super excited every time JE Wilds uploads. Most definitely my favorite. Thanks for the amazing contents.

[@loumaclennan5805]

Orsome joe. Always gets me keen on my next hunt watching your vids

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Perfect mate that's the idea!

[@BenBovill]

Awesome video! I've learnt a lot of tips and tricks watching your channel, keep it up

[@WarrenGuy-ny8je]

So good fella and really appreciate the outro and can’t wait for the next one!

[@grahamclark5766]

Very professional video, enthusiastic and interesting comments in great surroundings, love every episode.

[@FORDLYFAOTEAROA]

Just a thought, if your time and motivation ever allowed,could you run a second channel that was solely for the butchery/cooking content? Link in your descriptions or view by notification only if need be.

[@samwilson836]

Hey mate. Starting watching your videos about a year ago! Honestly can’t say how much I enjoy your videos. The quality of your filming is second to none, and the behind the scenes editing you do is out the gate! I love seeing your South Island hunting stuff as I grew up in Rakaia so for me it brings back memories. One thing I’d love to see you go more into is the ammo you’re using and how you find it and also if you change your ammo or if you consistently choose the same brands etc. Cheers and keep up the quality hunts!

[@ilanjelgerhuis]

i loved watching this video the landscape and the quality on the video is amazing this guy is living my dream

[@grozzatoyotaprado6659]

Yet again another awesome video loving the content mate Perth Australia watching cheers Grozz

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Glad you enjoyed it Grozz cheers mate 🤙🏻

[@Bozzz1453]

Your videos are second to none! Keep up the good work and keep these videos coming! Maybe for future, would you be able to make a video of all the equipment and gear you chose to take with you on these trips and why? Advantages and disadvantages of you’re equipment ect ect

[@anthonyheyns4877]

Absolutely great video, felt like i was on that mountain with you. Can't wait for the next one.

[@Benjiman89]

Awesome man, just awesome 👌 You bringing the podcasts back? Always got me keen, listening on the way to work or even on the way to a hunt. Keep pumping out the goods, we can’t get enough of it 👍

[@tomcrook2123]

I love that you teach is through the camera but I would love to see you make a mini series where you take guys out to hunt their first deer. There must be so much knowledge passed from student to master in those situations

[@guywhosleepallday8194]

Je wild has the best self film content. Hands down. Very nice hunt. Amazing scenery.

[@chillingout8854]

Love your videos, bro. Makes me miss NZ every time i watch.😊

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Glad you like them! Hopefully you get over here

[@echodoesgaming118]

never seen ur stuff before but this was such a good vid ngl

[@mdv2043]

Awsome hunt. Seems like the hunts that have all the obstacles and challenges turn out to be the most rewarding sometimes.

[@LucyA-z8v]

Another brilliant episode 👏 love it when you include little native bird snippets too (even those pesky Kea). Would be keen to see a pack list for your 7+ day trips? Keep up the good mahi!

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Yeah the bird encounters are always awesome, I've got a hunt coming up that I filmed earlier this year that had the most crazy bird life I've ever experienced. I'm hoping that comes through properly in the videos

[@stefanwilfrowbotham576]

Another wicked video bro! Thanks for the awesome content. Hopefully one day KZbin will allow you to show us it all!

[@PaulRyan-e9b]

Another epic vid! And talk about tenacity. You did amazingly well to get that Chamois in those conditions. Not sure how I’d cope with only 4 good weather days in 12! But, you did it man! Also… really appreciate you answering my question about Binos in this vid’s ‘Outro’… looks like I’ll be risking a “marriage ending move” by getting a pair of those Leopold BX-4 HD RF 10x42’s!

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Be careful mate and if I don't hear from you ever again I know what happened haha..rip

[@JawnSmoove-lh7ko]

[@alancrosbie2277]

Top class videos, as always, From Ireland

[@67hr74]

Fantastic JE, as an ex South Canterbury boy It take me back 50 years tramping over the high country chasing Deer, Chamois & Thar with the old Parker Hale .303. # 4 MKI. No range finders in those days, just educated guesses & Misses. LOl 👍👍as for butchering, check out "Jack out the back" WA. They show lots of dicing up camels, back straps & legs. Pretty sure raw meat is ok as long as there's not lots of blood.

[@fishingdayvlog]

loving your both hunting and fishing channel.. from the top mountain to the blue sea.. thnx for the great job joe 👍💯

[@mikebarone4902]

Another awesome video joe love keep it up always looking to see if you've done more videos. I've got a hubba hubba 2 man tent as well I use a compression sack for my tent an put my poles on the side of my pac I save heaps of room

[@mattharris2018]

Cool wee critters Chamois. Had an interesting encounter with one during the last roar where it was following our path. We stopped around a corner amongst some rocks not knowing it was behind us. Put up a hind and a spiker below us that bolted. Turned to see this chamois round the corner and freak, paused for a second and bolted also. It was only about 10 yards away. Amazing how they are so inquisitive and elusive at the same time.

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

They are very inquisitive arent they. Awesome encounter by the sounds mate

[@ChrisSharland-z2g]

Yew, epic as always Joe!

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

[@mattscholefield7254]

So good mate. This 2 part series was epic. Would have loved to see how you stored the meat from the previous video - totally get you're just trying to make your vids reach as many people within youtube guidelines though. Keep it up!

[@FDR350-l5e]

Hey Joe thanks for another great one !!!

[@rogananitasmith8283]

Hey mate great outro. Love the interaction and responding to comments on air. Have subscribed a long time ago as you put out outstanding content. You have a great camera manner, down to earth and not over representing yourself. Just a decent GC kiwi. Visually beautiful footage. Love how you talk through the hunt details, plans and you are honest about your concerns (we've all had those moments). Keep up the great work. Look after that understanding wife 😂

[@sadly8275]

love it man keep going.

[@mikesoehren5889]

Love watching the hunting and fishing channels. Always look forward to seeing your videos. Cant wait for Catherin to come back and join you on the adventures, as well as some other guests. Liking the new outro style as well. Thanks for bringing us along.
