Driven: Solo Archery Alaska Moose Float Hunt!!!

There is something unique about doing a solo adventure. While this trip started as a flyout hunt with my friend, it turned in to a test of my own determination and grit to find success.

[@hodagtrapper4167]

Simply the best filmed moose hunt I have ever watched! Going solo and filming it the way you did was beyond reproach. Excellent job. WOW...

[@isaaclandecker907]

Thanks!

[@stevet8121]

As a non-resident I did a solo unguided caribou hunt in Alaska and it's my most satisfying and memorable hunt ever. Congratulations Isaac! That's a brute!

[@isaaclandecker907]

Thanks Steve!

[@thomasobrien9629]

Isaac that’s the kind of video that fires me up! I really appreciate you taking the time and effort to make that video happen. I’m planning on doing a float, moose, bow hunt with my cousin 2023. We are doing everything to dig up information and knowledge to prepare for this first time Alaskan adventure. If there is any information or links you could direct me to help us prepare for a moose bow hunt I would really appreciate it Isaac.

Awesome video. Well done.

[@stevec8964]

A super bowl win in hunting! The work, effort, patience, skill, stamina, timing, not to mention you filmed it yourself! You are an athlete, I’ve shot mule deer, black tail and elk, you have my respect on a great hunt done well. Congratulations, Chuck Norris calls you for hunting tips!!

[@isaaclandecker907]

Haha…thanks! I’ll let you know if I hear from Chuck! 😂

[@terrynorris5037]

Another great video Isaac, you are fearless, great bull.

[@isaaclandecker907]

I actually had a little fear on that trip…when I heard an animal crashing through the woods by my tent. Turned out it was a bull moose

[@grisseldog]

Dude!!! You be the man! A fantastic Hunt! Congratulations!

[@isaaclandecker907]

Haha! Thanks!

[@fatrabbit32]

Awesome hunt!! Me and my buddy did a DIY float hunt last year without getting our moose. No way to truly appreciate what you accomplished unless you’ve been out there. Crash landing on the way in…unbelievable!!! Kudos to your pilot for getting you safely on the ground!

[@isaaclandecker907]

Thanks! They definitely are not easy that’s for sure! So much of it comes down to a little luck.

Epic hunt man, beautiful bull btw my alaskan bull was 63 1/2 inches and I will never forget it! It was the hunt of a lifetime. Your a stud in my book to do it all by yourself. I know how much work it is! Hats off to you bro congrats!!

Great content. Congrats on a slob. I didn't draw any tags out west this year and OTC didn't develop into anything this season, so I'm stuck living through KZbin this fall, thanks for sharing the awesome adventure.

Living through KZbin is a pretty good place to be!

That is so cool ... To do that by yourself and film it the way you did.... Man that's awesome 👌 👏

[@isaaclandecker907]

Thanks!

[@parker197411]

Must have balls the same size as that monster bull to be out there ALONE! Lived there for two years in the service and spent many hours in, "THE BUSH!" Unforgiving yet beautiful country with unreal landscape and hunting opportunities. Alaska, where dreams are made real! Outstanding fortitute and determination!

[@isaaclandecker907]

Haha! Thanks!

[@jamesireland6606]

Nice bulll Fair Chase well done

[@mrsockeye]

That's awesome. You have huge balls. Having your plane crash would be more than enough to dissuade most people. I can't think of too many people that would float down a river in Alaska by themself. That takes an unparalleled level of confidence.

[@isaaclandecker907]

It was a true test of my perseverance!

[@Mr880881]

Way to go ........ very bold doing that alone. It takes courage and a good head on shoulders and to top if off a 65" stud..... good job dude.

[@idaho2ndgens240]

Man, what awesome fronts on that bull. Geez. I think I like that on a moose more than anything. The fun part of archery hunting is getting close. I rifle hunt too but nothing like getting up close and personal for a thrilling hunt.

[@isaaclandecker907]

For sure! Big fronts are nice! I was just happy with a mature bull and an opportunity with my bow! Still can’t believe it all worked out.

[@huntingandstuff9489]

[@averageeverydayfishermansh4501]

What a feat! Well done! That is definitely a trophy not just because of the antlers but because you did it by yourself, you filmed it, and it was with a bow. Nice!!! Congrats! I will do that someday. I missed my chance when my brother lived in AK and I was playing war after 9/11. But I am sure I can talk him into another trip back and I have several friends there who I am sure would love to help me logistically. Hmmm...maybe time to think about next year. :-)

@@isaaclandecker907 Leaving for CO for elk a week from Friday so it will have to be another year. My father and brother live in CO and my brother owns a guiding/outfitting business there (my father started it and my brother took it over when he retired). The military kept me away too much but I am at the point where I am able to go exploring again. Took my son to CO a couple of years ago and he got a beautiful antelope (slightly bigger than mine from about ten years ago) so I am leaving him home this year and going for elk by myself. 🤣😂

Awesome!! I'm interested in your gear and how it held up. Specifically, your clothing and waders. I see you went with Firstlite. What about your waders? Boots, gloves etc..I live in Sitka. It rains constantly...for days! Congrats on a trip of a lifetime!

[@isaaclandecker907]

The first lite rain gear breaks down a bit after heavy use. Mine seems to have the waterproofing material separate from the jacket material. The warranty is great though so they always replace. Simms waders work great!

Wow, according to the video footage I saw. It appears your shot would most likely have been into the left rear quarter of that moose. You are very lucky to have retrieved him successfully. That there must be none other than an "Achilles Moose!"
