Bowhunting High Country Mule Deer | Burn Bucks 2

[@rustyarnett8750]

I liked seeing you pass on the 2-3 yr old buck, nice job Aaron. Remember Scent control is important! 😂 😂 “You stink so bad” 🤣

[@MuleyFreak]

If they couple only control their guts hahaha

[@LFC911]

My favorite part was loading the deer up in the Toyota, job well done!

[@MuleyFreak]

TACO for the win!

[@brettferrin8482]

The stock in the socks was epic. Those weren't heavy duty wool socks and that country was rocky. It made my feet hurt watching it. Nice work Aaron!

[@MuleyFreak]

Ours too! Ha. Thanks for watching!!!

[@jeremiahnewton7103]

I like it when the shoes come off, that means things are gettin real!!! Well done!!👍

[@MuleyFreak]

Real painful haha. Thanks, man!

[@pawewawrzyniak8549]

The best and most exciting moments was ...full draw and felling of a thrill hands start to shake a little bit . Congratulations 👏 good job 👍. More movies like that. Best Greadings from Norway.

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching from Norway!

[@HuntinHorns]

hell yes congrats Aaron awesome buck and video

[@brose7901]

The best part about this has to be the closing of the tailgate. Hunt, over. Deer, bagged. That may have been the most satisfying closing of a tailgate I have ever heard.

[@MuleyFreak]

That was Erik’s favorite part as well 💯

[@bradyshannon5834]

My favorite of the video is the persistence and determination to make it happen. And as a photographer the ability to capture emotion and mental/physical strain that a hunt can have.

[@MuleyFreak]

Aaron and Tyler go hard in the high country! Thanks for watching and don't forget to subscribe.

[@bryantburton1275]

Best part was that final stalk the shakes and the rapid breathing . That buck fever gets ahold of ya. Great episode can't wait for the next.

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching!!

[@jmcsflem]

My favorite part is when you were closing the last 30 yards and could hear the excitement in your breathing. Great buck and awesome country.

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching the two part adventure, brother! Catch you on the next video!

[@johnnymitro8224]

Way to go!! So badass getting it done solo! My favorite part was definitely “the shakes” then settling into the shot! Great buck! Way to show that hard work pays off!

[@MuleyFreak]

There's nothing quite like buck fever at full draw. Thanks for watching!

[@alecbackstrom2745]

Favorite part was the shaking when it came time for the shot. Showed the adrenaline!

[@MuleyFreak]

Buck fever!

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Thank you!

[@jwilcoxon01]

The arrow rattling when you were drawing your bow. There is nothing like the adrenaline dump just before shooting a big buck. Congrats!

[@MuleyFreak]

Nothing like adrenaline and buck fever at full draw!

[@jesselost05420]

I think the best part was hearing your breathing when you approached the buck on your stalk and knowing that it could possibly be your last chance at a buck and you still made it all come together in crunch time. Congrats.

[@MuleyFreak]

Aaron seems to perform well in the clutch! 😉 thanks for watching. Don’t forget to subscribe!

[@tylernelson6601]

That 3x4 was ready to tango😂😂 he was an absolute stud of a buck. Tyler was like starting clear into Aaron’s ear haha

[@MuleyFreak]

Ha ha. Tyler tasted that wax - straight nasty.

[@gagebrock17]

The part I liked most is your buddy came back to help after he tagged out. (rare) and you never quit!

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching, Gage!

[@scottwhited957]

Loved the dedication to family by spending time with family and the dedication to the hunt. Great example for everyone

[@MuleyFreak]

We love hunting but nothing comes before family! Thanks for watching Scott!

[@kevinkretzer687]

My favorite part what is the look on yawls faces when you pull that earwax out. Some of my best memories are the laughs I’ve had while goofing off on a hunt

[@MuleyFreak]

Straight nasty ha ha ha

[@braydonjohnson8302]

Favorite part was watching Aaron shake right before he shoots the buck. That's always the the most exciting part.

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching, Braydon!

[@michaelcox2714]

Enjoyed watching Aaron stalking in his socks! Thats dedication.

[@MuleyFreak]

Dedication and pain! 😉

[@thedad04]

My favorite part was seeing the Mt. Loin move in close. That's why we keep a handy Mt lion tag on us at all times lol.

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

They are stealthy suckers! Cool animals.

[@craigbrandon6382]

I like the excitement in your breathing as your taking the shot. It brings the true excitement the hunt

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Thanks, Craig!

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching!

[@panhandlepilgrim]

My favorite part was how you kept going back and kept after those bucks. Well done.

[@MuleyFreak]

Aaron put in the work and was rewarded with a great animal. Thanks for watching, Blake!

[@whitemtnskulls]

My favorite part of your videos is the persistence that you show. You guys never give up and are willing to go into those nasty spots and go after those bucks even when you know it is not going to be easy. So many hunters take the easy way out these days and it is great to see you guys do whatever it takes. Love that!

[@erikchadick3375]

Enjoyed the commitment to killing a mature buck

[@MuleyFreak]

💯 💯

[@kullenjon]

My favorite part is your grit and tenacity. By the third trip, you were all alone. Many guys would cus their buddies or stay home. You stuck with it and it payed off. A great reminder to us all. The value of an adventure is not in the adventure itself, but how it changes you.

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Thanks, Jonny! It was definitely a grind. Glad you enjoyed my friend.

[@MuleyFreak]

Aaron doesn't quit!!!

[@jadenhaskins1304]

I love the excitement and realism of the shot! Not everyone shows what actually happens when you're actually drawing back on an animal and the fact that you did shows that it ain't always sunshine and roses

[@MuleyFreak]

Amen. Thanks for watching.

[@mikejenson9010]

Loved seeing the shaky hands when you drew back! Never gets old!

[@MuleyFreak]

That’s what we call high country buck-fever!

[@robertmcintyre4518]

I feel your pain about always killing something when you’re alone! Great job sticking it out alone!!!

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

I always seem to get it done solo lol thanks for watching!

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching!

[@carterblack6534]

I love how you guys shoot bucks that make you excited and hunt for meat instead of always worry about the biggest and best. It makes the experience so much better and I wish more people did that

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Thanks, Carter!

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for the feedback, Carter. Catch you on the next video!

[@tysontaylor8109]

Gotta love the excitement and shakeyness at full draw 😂 great job sweet looking buck!

[@MuleyFreak]

Nothing like the age old buck fever syndrome! Thanks for watching. Are you subscribed?

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

haha thanks, Tyson!

[@marcushubred693]

Love seeing the raw emotion and pure adrenaline right before the shot. Buck fever is real!! Way to calm the nerves and get it done!!

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching 🙏

[@tlp6180]

Favorite Part was the sneaking up on the buck, could hear the excitement in your breathing. I could feel my heart racing like I was there. Thanks

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching.

[@MuleyFreak]

You and me both!

[@curtismartin3386]

Your fired up breathing before the shot

[@MuleyFreak]

Buck fever at its finest!

[@samrennick8934]

My favorite part was staking in on deer you couldn’t see. That’s a full send.

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching, Sam! Last day... got to go hard in the paint haha

[@colbyw.hoover377]

It’s awesome to see how excited you got but still able to make a good shot👍🏻

[@MuleyFreak]

Pics and video don’t do the animal justice. He’s really a super nice buck!

[@codyduerksen9493]

By far my favorite part is that mental toughness to continue to grind and make things happen congrats on the buck

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Thanks, Cody!

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching!

[@anthonygonzales8990]

Absolutely love the to see and hear the heavy breathing and shakiness before, during, and after the shot! Glad I’m not the only one! Keep keeping it real! 👍🏽

[@MuleyFreak]

Aaron had what we like to call the BEAVER BUCK FEVER! Thanks for watching!

[@anthonygonzales8990]

@@MuleyFreak 🤣🤣

[@ellisbruch6811]

My favorite part is not the gear, the shot or the recovery. My favorite part is even with all your experience, time in the field, hours shooting, and mental preparation that occurs, the pure emotion and excitement is visible right before the shot. Some call it buck fever, I call it… you can’t hide the love of hunting. Great videos.

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Well put! Thanks for watching, Ellis.

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching, Ellis.

[@Austos12]

You could feel the adrenaline right before the shot!! The fact that you kept after it and succeeded and did it by yourself... Something to be proud of!

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Thanks, Austin!

[@MuleyFreak]

That POV footage made the video for sure. Thanks for watching!!!

[@nolanschwartz0818]

Nice buck. Favorite part was the adventure of it. Thats what hunting is about friends and good times

[@MuleyFreak]

Good friends and working hard. Thanks for watching!

[@thecenter76]

Favorite part was watching you work into position from a first person point of view. Great hunt!

[@MuleyFreak]

POV footage turned out better than expected. Thanks for watching.

[@luketingey3093]

It’s always the second effort that gets bucks killed. Love that he went back out by himself for one last chance and it paid off

[@MuleyFreak]

The harder you work the luckier you get, right!? Thanks for watching!

[@frankhite9849]

favorite part is your ability to stalk within Bow range and seeing your bow shaking from buck fever! been there!

[@MuleyFreak]

For sure. Thanks for watching, Frank.

[@bryanearnest6262]

Love the fact that you kept going back..! Favorite party for sure..! The battle of attrition.!

[@MuleyFreak]

No quit and the two earned their obsession on this one!

[@tyjohnston1793]

Great buck Aaron!!🦌 My favorite part was “you smell so bad”!!

[@MuleyFreak]

Cuz he does smell so bad. His poor wife! Lol

[@krazygoofadventures8031]

So many great scenes. The giggles and earwax, sparing bucks, and nasty climbs. However the hand shakes and ragged breathing just before the shot are as real as it gets,. Nicely done!

Have been a subscriber for a while. I am on active duty and can't always get back to MT to hunt. You guys help me get thru the drought Uncle Sam inflicts.

[@davidlucero5049]

Congrats Arron on a really nice buck. My favorite part is the solo hunt. And that you are not afraid to go into no man's land to get it done!

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks, buddy!

[@loganmoreland8379]

Favorite part was definitely the excitement and adrenaline showing on the final stock. We all know the feeling.

[@MuleyFreak]

So much fun editing this episode. Thanks for watching!

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Can’t agree more. It was fun to watch and relive that stalk

[@Wild_Albertan]

Dude! Congrats on the dandy of a buck. You guys truly showcase how hard public land backcountry hunting is.

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Thank you!

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching, brother!

[@craigmedema4368]

Could definitely see the shakes, but favorite part was the old shoeless tactic a lot of times ya gotta do some wacky things to get the animal. Cool set of videos glad I found them on youtube.

[@MuleyFreak]

Glad you found us, Craig. I hope you stay awhile. 💯

[@Rastcao1984]

Love seeing big buck sparing. Good shot from distance as well.

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching!

[@ethanharders3529]

My favorite part is Aaron's persistence and over all grind to get it done. Nice work buddy, definitely an inspiration for the rest of us.

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Mahalo!!

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching, stud!

[@markl.9671]

Favorite fur sure was the shakes. That’s what it is all about. That’s why I watch your channel and a select few anymore. Major TV channels and some of the more mainstream YT channels are all about advertisement and not about the hunt, the fun, the animal, etc. Keep it up.

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Thank you, Mark! Buck fever definitely set in haha

[@MuleyFreak]

Buck fever!

[@AndyBrown-s9u]

watching the shake drawing back is always raw and cool to see

[@issacnavarrette2438]

Congratulations!! Great buck!! Gotta love walking in your socks to sneak in!!

Great job, Aaron. Loved the Crispis flyin' into the bed of the truck...

Haha always feels good taking the boots off and sliding some flip flops on after a nasty pack out!

[@MuleyFreak]

Glad you liked it!

[@justinadams9695]

Congrats on a very nice buck! Best part is seeing the adrenaline shakes before the shot. It happens to all of us but most don’t like to admit it. Way to grind it out for a chance to send it!

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks, Justin!

[@brycenmock2542]

My Favorite part of the video was when you got that awesome footage of the mountain lions and with all the predators around you still managed to get it done with a beautiful buck.

[@MuleyFreak]

Crazy how many predators there were lurking. Thanks for watching, Brycen!

[@joshuaherring769]

My favorite part was seeing the multiple days where you could have had success earlier if you didn’t wait for your target bucks!! Love seeing guys commit to bigger older bucks!

[@MuleyFreak]

Patience and hard work paid off for Aaron. Thanks for watching!

[@MuleyFreak]

Poised under pressure! Every detail matters when bowhunting. Thanks for watching!

[@jonlukesimmons1567]

My favorite part was definitely the POV stalk with the yardage updates, seemed like you got more and more excited with each one. Congrats on the successful hunt, well deserved!

[@MuleyFreak]

The POV stalk footage turned out pretty epic. Thanks for watching...it was a fun hunt.

[@carsenpalmer4039]

Thanks for watching, Tyler! Glad you enjoyed.

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Glad you enjoyed! I was shaking so bad ha

[@MuleyFreak]

Thanks for watching!

[@carsonmcvay2069]

That you said it wasn’t a good shot and put yourself out there. Because none of us are perfect. That you had the knowledge to just let lay come back the next morning. Those are the hardest nights. Good job sir.

[@MuleyFreak]

Aint' that right; however, as long as we are all striving to get better. That's what life is about!

[@jm1607]

The stalk with no boots was awesome!!!

[@MuleyFreak]

Aaron is devoted to the task at hand. Thanks for watching!

[@1pumafan]

My arrow chattered just like that when I drew back on my first archery deer two days ago. I can still picture the buck in my sights and fighting my bubble like I was in a damn earthquake. Months of prep just flew over the top of the buck. Buck Fever is no joke. I did manage to tag out and have an awesome experience. Congrats on your amazing buck. That’s a dandy.

[@aaronvanwoerkom6401]

Congratulations on your deer! Buck fever is definitely real haha I think not eating or drinking for 4 or 5 hours played into it too.

Thanks for sharing your experience, buddy. We hope to see you on the next video.
