Cliff Dweller: A High Country Mule Deer Hunt

Join along on our 9 day adventure in the backcountry of Colorado as we hunt high country mule deer with a bow. I'm joined by my brother Keith and my good buddy Clint Casper of Working Class Bowhunter Podcast: CC Hunt Files.

Awesome vid! Thanks for sharing the hunt. Great buck!

[@therealdeal955]

Great video! Six days and I’ll be in the high country of Utah chasing bucks and bulls! Killed quite a few on private ground in my life but set a goal to get one with a bow on public ground. Something about being up in the high country. It can’t be beat.

[@jaredknighton7030]

Thank you! Good luck to you this season. There’s nothing like hunting vast public lands.

[@RockyMountainHunters]

I love the public land owner shirt. Currently wearing one watching this video

[@Socal_huntfish]

Supernice film. Great land.

[@jaredknighton7030]

Thank you.

[@drewolm]

Watched a couple of your videos. As a total bow hunting nerd I love the archery aspect but you do a fantastic job filming these hunts. A lot of these videos are just people talking to their phones. All the, I guess it’s “B role or roll” footage is great.

[@PNWild]

Beautiful film man! Enjoyed it all the way through.

[@jaredknighton7030]

Sweet hunt man! Congrats on such a cool buck! I’ve got a high country Colorado mule deer hunt coming early fall and this got me amped.

[@jaredknighton7030]

Glad to hear it man! Good luck on your hunt.

[@ET-sp6qm]

Same here. First mule deer tag I’ve put in for and drawn. 67. On the maps it looks like some high country at the south end, similar to what these gentlemen hunted. But, it’ll be hard for me personally not to want to go after otc elk in a different unit after last year’s success.

Nice buck man! Always the best feeling when you get it on the last day. Ive been out here hunting mule deer in california but no luck yet

Thank you! It really is, especially after grinding for 8 days in the backcountry. Good luck out there!

Great film, man. "Success" with or without the deer IMO.

[@jaredknighton7030]

Thanks! I agree.

[@claytonc8101]

This is some insane video quailty.

[@jaredknighton7030]

Thank you

[@MountainGurkha14]

beautiful

[@jordandavis9536]

you want low deer density ill, show you a place with low deer density. compared to my home unit that place is a wonderland for deer hunting lol

[@rpsully]

What part of CO is this in? Beautiful country!

[@JrakeOutdoors]

Such a sick hunt! What camera was used too film it? Scenery and everything is CRISSSSSP.

[@jaredknighton7030]

Thanks, glad you liked it! I’m running a Sony A7IV.

[@alapaitoulon439]

What camera did you film the bow shot with solo?

[@brockanderson4419]

What Camera are you using?

[@bryceturrentine2969]

Man what an awesome hunt! Are you going back again this year? That hunt looked like a grind.

[@jaredknighton7030]

Thank you for saying that! No, I’ve got other hunts planned this year.

[@DJMagnumnTV]

What brand are those pants at the beginning? They look sick!

[@jaredknighton7030]

I was wearing the Kings XKG Ridge pant Clint is wearing Black Ovis

[@jakelundberg1948]

Were y’all in the Sangre de christo range by chance?

[@stephencadwallader5401]

They were in the Rocky Mountains near the forest

[@Jesse-fs9yd]

were you able to fit all the meet on just your pack?

[@jaredknighton7030]

No, I had two people helping me.

[@nathanchapman9836]

Great camera work, video quality is excellent. I would point out that whispering THAT quietly isn’t needed and is a little annoying to try and follow along at times.

[@jaredknighton7030]

Thanks for the input.

[@Bustardhunts]

It’s mule deer Nathan. Sound reverberates in those basins like a coliseum.

[@user-sy6rm6uq4v]

What make is your water bottle holder?

[@jaredknighton7030]

Kifaru

[@DakotaDOO800]

Has anyone ever told you that you sound like John Dudley?

[@jaredknighton7030]

Haha I’ve heard it once or twice before

[@isaiahaldaco824]

What pack is this that you’re using?

[@jaredknighton7030]

Kifaru Hoodlum

[@BigBirdDayTrader]

Is this Silverton??

Fuxk yeah !!

[@jdhill3588]

I have a pair of sheds that look exactly like him

[@jaredknighton7030]

Nice!

[@ChronicalsofAl]

Great video but unless you totally blew em out, why leave the 4 bucks at your 1st location?

[@jaredknighton7030]

Thank you. I agree with you, I wanted to stay but my hunting partner felt like we would have better opportunities elsewhere. If I would’ve been hunting solo, I would’ve stayed.

[@ChronicalsofAl]

@@jaredknighton7030 10-4! As bad as I want greener grass, I think (probably because I'm OLD now) I agree with Randy Newberg in that you shouldn't leave deer/elk to find deer/elk! He'll learn

[@saggot420son]

are you abler to give a unit or area in CO, would love to hike it

[@jaredknighton7030]

Most of Colorado’s mountains look like this and hold Mule Deer

[@videosatrandomplease9933]

If I see one more inreach clipped to a shoulder strap.. I'm gonna lose it. Awesome hunt tho

[@jaredknighton7030]

Actually, it’s strapped to my bino harness.

[@kevinf7016]

Any mountain goat sightings?

[@jaredknighton7030]

Yeah we saw a few goats. My buddy killed a goat in that unit the same time we were hunting deer.

[@tysonhartle2439]

So much for that meat!

[@jaredknighton7030]

The meat was still good

[@prestont5769]

Can shoot a dink like that from the truck. Letm grow!

[@jaredknighton7030]

I’d rather shoot them in the backcountry. Thanks for your input on hunting conservation.

[@jhughes892]

Looks like the weminuche

[@frostyvlog4547]

trial or error on the disco music? good footage at least

[@jimboslice9472]

Rifles save time money & lost game.

[@Robertrls01]

Look at the production cost, Many sponsors needed for all this overpriced gear.

[@jaredknighton7030]

I don’t have a single sponsor. I’ve bought all of my gear myself throughout the years. My backpack is the only exception. But I’m by no means “sponsored” by any of these companies.

[@TrueNorth13]

What camera do you use, looks great

[@jaredknighton7030]

Thanks! I use a Sony A7 IV
