Wide 8-point in the Big Hills - Public Land Rifle Hunt

[@chrislindsey3523]

Gotta love catman best deer and turkey hunter on KZbin no doubt

[@half-assedandnotfast3375]

He's the most dedicated that's for damn sure. He doesn't rest just keeps on killing

[@ricksears3330]

By far

[@hiddenmortimer5189]

No doubt👍

[@montemaguire4596]

Batman and Gritty and Have Bow Will travel are the most consistent

[@mattsweet7918]

Best videos by far. No irritating music or unnecessary chatter. Just good hunting as it’s meant to be.

[@labtrainer09]

This one brought back a truly wonderful memory: Almost fifty years ago, the first buck I killed in Vermont (in woods very similar to those in the foothills you hunted) took what seemed to be FOREVER to reach me. Like your eight, he started and stopped again and again.until he finally stepped into sight at 20 yards. As was the case for you, one shot with my .308 instantly did the trick. Thanks so much for that memory, Jonathan. Thanks, too, for taking the time to show us the path of the bullet and the extent of the damage it did. Virtually no deer--hunting KZbin hosts bother with this analysis, yet-at least in my opinion-it's an important. part of the learning process. All the best, Chris (in Maine)

[@timwhitney5288]

Where were u in Vermont? I'm from central VT Randolph area... but I hunted in up in NEK and Orange moose in 2000 and 2010... I've been in NC since Trocpical storm Irene relocated in 2011

[@BoltHunter22]

Being a hunter instead of an influencer is the right thing to do. Great job and nice buck!

[@Todd-r9j]

The new Mike Waddell. Absolutely the best hunting channel. Thank you catman.

[@whiteyfisk9769]

Dont insult Jonathan by comparing him to that spoiled hack. Its easy to be a good hunter when you have tens of thousands on guides to do all your work for you. Also Michael just ran off with his camera man's wife?? Abandoning his wife and kids. This is the third time hes done this. I could go on and on. Waddel cant hold a candle to Catman

[@harlowecustommicrogreens]

Don’t insult catman like that. Waddell couldn’t hunt anything outside a fence.

[@Todd-r9j]

I could of said Jackie bushman. Catman is awesome. Didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings. Sorry.​@@harlowecustommicrogreens

[@Todd-r9j]

​@@whiteyfisk9769 ok sorry didn't know all that stuff. I'm just gonna unsascribe. Didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings.

[@WHOTEEWHO]

💯💯💯 awesome buck

[@steemerxaxon1643]

Absolutely #1 deer hunter that I watch on TY.. & a SUCCESSFUL ONE!!!!!

[@slabslayer258]

That’s how filming goes . I wouldn’t miss or skip opportunity over not getting full video of it that would just be a missed kill shot video . Great work

[@hiddenmortimer5189]

Those Federal Fusions are no joke. Deadly combo from a .308

[@jodystamper9105]

yes I agree. I shoot them in 150gr in 270wsm and i think 62gr in 223 and of course i keep my shots with the ar 75 yards or less and if i know the shots will be longer then the wsm comes out to play.

[@usafret4709]

If you reload, they are basically a Speer Gold Dot. Always uniform and penetrate deep.

[@karlstruck5297]

Glad you took him, nice mass. You seemed happy the evening before and really happy when you got that buck on the mountain.

[@ForgetU]

My son got a big buck this first IL gun season. The deer's neck was like two deer's worth of neck meat, incredible. Another Great video, thanks.

[@peytoncoleman6044]

Best hunting channel on KZbin. Congratulations on a great hunt. Like you, I love seeing all the wildlife. Hunting success is icing on the cake. And that was nice icing!

[@liggett3982]

Awesome buck Catman!! Those electro chemically bonded fusion bullets are no fail, massive expansion shock & high weight retention, most soft points would not have exited, best process bonded bullet there is IMO, impressive results. -W. Liggett

[@rl3479]

I made a very similar shot this year on a good doe with a .308 using federal premium trophy bonded tip 165. Took fist size section of the spine out and tones of lung blood out the exit. Instant death. I will admit not where I intended to hit, however I was pleased with the outcome. Great video Catman

[@mikem1509]

congrats young man your love and respect of the outdoors is showing.

[@edkennard72]

I truly enjoy your videos because they're real. You show your mistakes and you show what you can be done right? Thank you. I'm not able to hunt anymore because of my shoulders and you're the only ones that I watch hunting deer in Turkey and I really enjoy your fishing videos, especially the bow fishing. Thank you very much for taking the time to film all this. I know there's a large group of us that truly enjoy it and appreciate the time that you put into all of it. Congratulations on a successful hunt and I hope you're able to get yourself. A couple of good does to fill the freezer

[@lestaylor8873]

Thanks for showing the hot placement!

[@jameslandrum555]

Catman as I’m watching this video on Dec 4, 8:30 pm I shot a 6 pt the evening before with 308 same exact bullet, low shoulder & he didn’t go 20. That’s a great buck, Congratulations!!!

[@benwright67]

Congrats Catman ! That was a good hunt.

[@LtDan-bb1xr]

Awesome video, Congrats Catman!!!

[@LDBoone]

Looks very similar to where I hunt here in the western mountains of the Va Shenandoah Valley. Mountain bucks are always the best to harvest. Especially on down hill drags. Great video

[@Blackbear2025]

Could you share the link to the deer magnet you keep in your pocket?😁

[@kerryfalls3292]

Great looking Buck and a great hunt in the mountains! Took a 7pt in the Ozarks and a 8pt in the swamps of Arkansas! Keep em comin!!!!

[@blaws6684]

Nice analysis of the shot on a great buck. They don’t walk away when that dorsal aorta is cut. Congratulations, good work, and happy hunting to you.

[@sonnywetherington3532]

Nice buck, thanks for sharing with a no-nonsense video!

[@johnnyearliwine6698]

GREAT HUNT. LOVE THAT YOU WERE IN THE MOUNTAINS IN THE WOODS HUNTING WILD DEER. I DID THE SAME WHEN I WAS MUCH YOUNGER. GREAT DEER AND A GREAT VIDEO. THANKS FOR SHARING.

[@JR-rn5sh]

Man I gotta sa When I look back at my life as an old man, I will always remember how at home I feel in the hardwood mountains of the ozarks where I grew up. I remember being 10 years old wit h a golden eagle sparrowhawk 2 compound bow sitting in the woods in the rain spending all day out there.

[@glennflake5732]

Your continuation videos make them some of the best on Utube ❤

[@BrianBlake-oz4ru]

Congratulations on a beautiful MTN buck I live and hunt on our big farm here in the MTN of West Virginia I love watching your channel it's always bring me joy to see a video pop up that you post no matter what it is always enjoy them all

[@bearman3163]

Absolutely love Hunting the mountains. Congrats on a nice buck.

[@stephenthompson640]

[@frankgulla8782]

Great job Johnny! Keep whackin and stackin.....

[@bohunter1949]

Good hunt glad you got yourself a nice buck. All your hard work is paying off. Thanks for sharing 😊

[@michaelhaworth8317]

Awesome hunt and video. Loved the shot beak down.

[@ericearhart]

Great hunt! I shot one at 70yd with a 357 Max 158gr XTP in the exact spot. I was really surprised it got full penetration. The spine was shattered and it was full of copper jacket and lead. So the bullet that exited didn't have much left to it.

[@sutdave1]

This is the type of hunting i have done most of my life. It is a different style all together having to be patient yet ready to shoot as soon as the opportunity presents itself. FInding the hole in the brush to shoot through. Mountain hunting is just different than hunting down in farm country.

[@jimtritt8927]

Best public land hunter on the tube !!!!!!

[@MDoodie11B1P]

Beautiful spot

[@OscarLemus-o2z]

Nice work!

[@jryan0891]

Nice job. Congrats! Great deer

[@jasonruch6289]

Very nice Buck. Congrats

[@jaybeliever1479]

I used a .308 for whitetail and mule deer from 25 to 415 yards for 40 years. Almost all hits were pass throughs from almost any angle - even the longest shots. All the new calibers introduced since then don't do any better job, they just sell rifles and ammunition. Oh yeah - and give gun writers something new to write about. Congrats on the nice buck, and thanks for you fine videos - I'm a fan.

[@whiteyfisk9769]

I agree on everything you said about the new calibers. Theyre pure marketing hype. But im a 270 man for deer, and a 300 win mag for elk and black bear.

[@BrittBramblett]

Congratulations on your mountain buck Cat! Who knows, we might even see a turkey video from that spot come spring.

[@StevoslotGreatness]
