Day 12: Ground Attack on the BIGGEST BODIED DEER I've Seen

Day 12: Ground Attack on the BIGGEST BODIED DEER I've Seen
Switching things up, I grab my recurve bow and head to a new spot. I tuck myself into some thick ground cover, hoping to encounter a tank of a buck, likely the biggest bodied one I've gotten on camera. It's an intense hunt with some crazy close encounters.

Jared, hands down, you have the most beautiful videography work on KZbin! I can just sit and watch your videos just to be able to watch whitetails going about their business, doing what they do undisturbed. From another traditional bow hunter, good luck! You’ll get your shot!!!

[@jaredmills]

I appreciate that Greg. Like you, I love watching them be whitetails, and capturing it is all a part of it for me. Thanks for the support!

[@FullQuiverOutdoors]

As another fellow stickbow guy that videos tapes, I agree, you’ve got the best footage out there. Can’t wait to see you connect with trad gear!

[@trevorlamble3645]

Ur ghillie suit hunt will always b my favorite. I only hunt from the ground anymore to make it more challenging. There is nothing like being eye level with multiple deer n drawing ur bow on one

[@jaredmills]

No doubt! That's awesome. I would certainly do it a lot more, but it doesn't tend to mesh well with self filming! But I couldn't agree more, the intensity of it is like nothing else. Thanks for watching!

[@bradleyhudson7130]

Nice to see you hunting with the recurve. I hope you keep bringing these traditional hunts man!

[@jaredmills]

Thanks man! Will do!

[@jimpowers2047]

Jared and Greg from the Hunting Public 2 skilled camera boys😉

[@gunlemke2748]

Excellent video! "Stick" with it, success will feel so much better.

[@timjohn2810]

Traditional archery is at another level, up close and personal. Terrific footage once again. Thank you for taking us along. Looking forward to the follow up (s).

[@jaredmills]

No doubt. Thanks Tim!

[@zb5715]

Intense is right! You make it feel like we’re right there in the spot with you! Love watching every second of these uploads, thanks for what you’re doing blessing us with these experiences of yours. If anyone can capture just how special it is to be in the woods chasing whitetails it’s you man. On the edge of my seat waiting for the next one. Thanks as always Jared!

[@OscarPerez-mn3po]

What awesome hunt!! Absolutely thoroughly enjoyed you taking us on that journey! Beautiful doe interaction, plenty of deer, and your target so close. It’s all a testament to your perseverance and quest for that traditional harvest you so desire. Your efforts will pay off soon Jared. Good luck and can’t wait for more!

[@jaredmills]

Thanks Oscar! Glad you enjoyed it, and appreciate the support as always

[@bryanroberts]

That buck is a tank! Great hunt! You had the plan it's just that luck that keeps bucks like him alive! Good luck!

[@RyanL88827]

“Jimmmeny Christmas”, “Remember to always dream big” and Jared’s catch phrase “Well, that’s not ideal” I love it! You inspired me Jared. I’m mid 40’s, 4 plates and 21 screws in my left arm but I’m hoping to mix in a traditional bow next year with my compound. I don’t think I’ve ever been more excited

[@dublelung1]

That mature doe was beautiful! Great videography!

[@brushcrawler8612]

Second-to-none footage my man. Thanks for drawing out the season a little with the trad equipment.

[@williamshaver5524]

Always enjoy watching just how picky deer are about what they eat and how the nose rules their life. Hoping fatso remains smart enough to make it through gun season. As always, thanks for the adventure. Regards

[@kevinfowler6065]

Brody, the town cop in Jaws, sees Jaws for the first time turns to the others and says famously “we’re gonna need a bigger boat”. Jared you might need a bazooka. Again thanks for sharing your ability to catch these remarkable days in the field!

[@dwightpickens2895]

This is what hunting is about enjoying her nature and the animals, freaking awesome cinematography

[@dirtyfabrication401]

Holy moly Jared!!!! if that joker comes by at 6 yards like those does did.... it would be like shooting a 4x8' sheet of walking plywood lol

[@jonstephen8654]

Jared sometimes the shot and kill is not what we do. the whole video you took was absolutely great. thanks

[@58BowNut]

Love the batwing feathers! Been using the 2” four fletch for my compound for years! Fly fantastic! Great video!

[@jgoodson79]

Man that's just some awesome footage!! Hope you get that toad!!

[@ryangiancola6528]

Killer footage! Dudes legit. So amazing Watching that does nose twitch and ears patrolling after she caught that scent. Seems they know those pockets where they have the wind advantage, just off the field edge where the wind eddys.

[@guardianminifarm8005]

Excellent encounter & experience. Well done. Huge thanks. Happy hunting.

[@HucksDad08]

Great footage and story Jared!

[@brentbarnetthunting]

Them does drive me nuts! If they blow, they must go. LOL

[@AndroidBH1]

Amazing video work. Thanks I can't wait to get back to my blind later this week.

[@JayN4GO]

You’ll get him I hope. He’s in there and looks to be focused on food haha

[@tuogear]

Nice work on this one, Jared!

[@akomara1]

Beautiful footage!! What a cool hunt!

[@bentpolski]

Great Video. Man Oh Man You'll have plenty of Bucks there for a while with all those Young Ones there!

[@tfelich19]

The close up footage was so great!

[@museum52]

That deer has got to be almost 300 lbs!!!!!

[@Archerygeek7788]

Hands down the best hunting videography in the business. You bring the viewers into the moment. It’s not all abt the kill with you and that what makes me respect you even more. Thanks for sharing your hunt with us. Top notch sir as always

[@jaredmills]

Thanks man, I appreciate that. It's certainly not about the kill for me, and I'm sure it never will be. Too many cool experiences to be had. Thanks for watching as always!

[@Matt-33]

Been incredible content again this year. This is the proper way to spend bow season... enjoying every sit right down to the wire! Good luck man!

[@jaredmills]

Thanks Matt!

[@mitchellgenz1373]

Great hunt Jared, hope you get that buck, it is huge.

[@scottjohnson2043]

Your cinematography is the best out there. Keep it up!

[@doubledroptinehunter]

He's gonna keep coming out for food and you will have another chance. Hopefully the orange army doesn't mess their routine up too much these next several weeks. You stay on him, you will get him.

[@kjc9293]

Looks like a cow in a deer costume!!! Huge bodied!!

[@jacobneill5711]

Killed my #2 buck this year on ground in middle of a field snuck down ditch 150 inch 6 year old never shook so hard in my life. You’ll have a big one down soon best bow hunter out there good luck to you brother and awesome footage as always

[@gregbunn4642]

Really awesome footage.

[@butchbeaird6311]

Another great video Jared.

[@Farmersforever1993]

Now that’s what you call a tank of a body on a buck.

[@charlesleblanc6638]

Intense hunt indeed. That's the whole reason right there to hunt with traditional gear and from the ground. Man that buck would be close to 300 lbs F.D.

[@Raised-Right]

Best footage on the internet

[@realrussclarke]

That deer is the definition of slob wow stick with it Jared!

[@aarongoeppner413]

Sherman!!!! Nerves of steel!

[@cryptoconsulting1989]

my god that thing is a horse. hope you get one late season would be hard as heck!

[@pursuingtheheartland3414]

awesome hunt.

[@fergystuff]

Don't think he's missed many meals Jared!

[@reelgamecalls1744]

Shes a really sweetie! Time for her to go in my book lol

[@timmytim6427]

That was one big doe

[@JimRyser]

Looks like Fat Albert! Holy moly!!!!

[@jaredmills]

Haha! That's a great name for him too. I've been calling him Billy Bob (Varsity Blues)

[@monsterhog1118]

Call him whatever you want just don't call him late for dinner lol

[@crete14]

Amazing footage, been watching your hunts for a long time, what’s your camera set up? Lens and body? Looks great been really thinking about filming myself, just curious to what set up ur running thanks! Great stuff bro keep it up 💪🏻

[@crete14]

Never mind Found your previous videos thanks 🙏🏼

[@jjohnson9750]

Wow that buck has a huge body. I hope you get him. I would like to know how much he weighs.

[@TheLoojlis1]

Eh when did Jared start his own channel? Did he leave Midwest whitetails? Luckily I found his channel. Great content and now I'm a new subscriber. 👍

[@alankieffer7631]

Left the season before last he killed a huge 194 inch last year bought his own land does all self filmed hunts

[@prose2119]

What you feeding that boy, my gawd! 🤣

[@jaredmills]

😂 No doubt. He's a pig. He even has a little waddle to him I think

[@jodytucker4474]

Nothing is louder than being on the ground that close to a doe and she blows, scares the 💩 out of you.

[@jaredmills]

Haha no doubt. You can probably see me jump at the first one

[@jodytucker4474]

@@jaredmills I had one a few years ago when I was walking out just before dark in the woods, I was down in a valley and she was elevated about head height, she had to be within 5 yards, she blew, I never saw her because I was looking down to skirt this mud puddle, after I jumped and looked and collected my thoughts, she was right there. Scared the living 💩 out of me, I felt the percussion of the blow, that’s how close she was. There’s nothing more scarier in the woods than that, I’m convinced!!! Hahahaha

[@thomassykes6985]

Is this bigger than the buck you took in missouri several years ago!!??

[@brandonbillings93]

If she blows she goes lol

[@bwfreel]

Bulldozer with antlers

[@kylebailey8498]

Alright National Geographic
