IT'S GO TIME! | Nevada Archery Mule Deer with Marcus (EP. 2)

In this episode of this Nevada archery mule deer hunt, Marcus is up early optimistic to relocate one of the shooter bucks from the night before. He plans to move to a vantage point not far from where he left the buck. On the way in as he sneaks his way through the timber he bumps a couple bull elk.
The bachelor group of bucks unfortunately happens to be near the elk and become high alert as well. Frustrated, Marcus hopes that the deer will calm down and bed rather than being blown out of the area.
Thankfully eventually the bucks do just that. He watches one bed in an area that Marcus thinks is stalkable. He makes a huge loop to get the wind right and come down from above the buck. With any luck he will be able to sneak within bow range.

Oh man, this is tough. Looks fun though. Hunting is a lot of disappointments or as I like to say "learning opportunities". Good video guys. Thanks for posting.

[@robgrubb420]

love hunts with Marcus he has a great attitude.

And below marginal harvest results

[@johnj5985]

Bagging game is a bonus. But following you guys into the high country, glassing for game, watching the sunset across those beautiful mountain vistas... hard to believe it could get any better than that!

[@ericwiitala5407]

"Low density, high stakes"... Pretty much my entire hunting life. That feeling of defeat sucks. Great couple videos and beautiful country. You saw animals every day. Some decent elk also.

[@jdking25]

That moon setting shot with the bull feeding! Wow!

[@matangill8935]

Marcus is the best!!

[@longgone9869]

It’s why they call it hunting, right? I absolutely enjoyed the video. Thanks for putting the effort into it

[@lukesenter]

Great stuff, guys! I have hunted a low population unit in southern New Mexico near the Texas border for three years in a row for archery mule deer in September and it’s never easy. I have been so close soooo many times but have come home empty. It’s just not easy and it was nice to see y’all also struggle but still have fun and enjoy it. I loved seeing your frustration and exhaustion. It’s the same faces me and my buddy make. And then the last day where you don’t want to leave empty handed but you’re tired too! Sorry for the long note, but I enjoyed this episode! Keep them coming!

[@perryknetter8577]

Thank you for sharing this hunt because it is real This is how a lot of hunts go. You two keep each other going God's Blessings on all your adventures this fall

[@mattyz28kbrracing80]

Way more than worth it to watch. Love the personality you to bring to these videos, and not every hunt is a successful one. Just a fact of life.

[@willfalkner4936]

Great video guys. I love the way y'all lay out these hunts - very well thought out and enjoyable to watch. The moon clip at the end was awesome. God has put some beauty out there for our enjoyment for sure.

[@reapergrim76]

Awesome stuff! 👌

[@davehood2534]

Ya I can relate to the frustration..thanks for the show, I hope the moon shot at the end was real,holy crow

[@shawnparker80]

Great job guys! At least it’s just the beginning of the season. Can’t wait for the next video!

[@markroth9827]

Never a “walk of shame”. Thank you for your video.

[@bradw6413]

Lesson learned. Don’t pass up on day 1 what you would gladly shoot on last day.

[@scott729]

Thanks Marcus, one of your better series even though no go ... I didnt realize Nevada had that type of cover. I thought it was mostly bare, sun burnt desert. Turns out it is really cool terrain and landscape.

[@norneva775]

Marcus always brings a smile to my face. Such a good attitude and always grinding...I was talking about Marcus the public land llama...But the winter Marcus is pretty cool as well 😂

[@graygildner3434]

Great video. Tough hunting. Can't imagine doing this hunt with a bow. Really admire that.

[@chrisgreenhagen1717]

It was worth my time for sure!!! Looking forward to the next series.

[@burmano4]

Enjoyable to watch you guys work.

[@UncleTerry]

Best of luck next time out Marcus. Great shot of the Moon setting Michael

[@MrBowNaxe]

That was fun to watch even though you are have tag soup for dinner. Been there, done that! At least you got to see some cool country and gained some Nevada knowledge for the next time. Thanks for sharing a real hunt series and not some edited-up kill video. Can't wait to see what's next.

[@billstev100]

All the deer are safe with Marcus hunting them......... 😆

Good attitude, that is why it is called Hunting, not Killing

[@to8860]

Good stuff guys!!!

[@RaynBella]

That's what I love about these videos, it's real bow hunting. Some tags are filled and a lot are not. It's not the private land drive up to them its busting your butt and hoping. I'll keep watching.

[@billbreeding797]

Beautiful country. Good to be out there. God Bless America 🇺🇸 🙏

[@sav300]

That’s my dream deer, big ol wide 3x3 !!

[@brettd530]

That's some beautiful country there.

[@hunter19871956]

Great hunt! Just an observation I’ve noticed lately: You guys, Randy, et al, need to spend more time on these hunts. 2-3 days just isn’t enough time. I know you guys have scheduling conflicts, but maybe fewer hunts with longer stays. Quality over quantity! haha. Either way, enjoy the hunts. Thanks for sharing!

[@colbyduyck1861]

Just depends what they’re going for. If it’s about the experience then 2-3 days at each place are great to show viewers public land. Now if they’re sole purpose is to harvest game then yeah obviously spending two weeks somewhere greatly raises your odds.

[@hunter19871956]

@@kingdaddy4200 it was just a general observation and a suggestion on my part. Nothing nefarious intended. If a public figure posts videos, then comments from different angles should be expected. Cost of doing business so to speak. Don't take it so personal... lol

[@hunter19871956]

@@kingdaddy4200 It’s just a video on KZbin. That’s it! Relax man. 😎

[@fent2136]

I love that canyon

[@sterlingwilkey2124]

Even though you didn't fill your tag, it was still a awesome video.

[@waynethompson4946]

When you're trying to hunt with more primitive weapons more often than not it's just going to be tag soup. But in this situation it's the hunt itself that is the trophy so. Excellent hunt, add a little chicken stock to that tag and bank those memories.

[@ginawaldon2110]

Goes like our hunts 😁

[@rareaussie6960]

You had a adventure you had fun that’s all that matters cobber I love you and Michael hunting buddy fun funny but it’s real congratulations on being good guys keep your chin up and your string waxed 👍🇦🇺👍🇦🇺🍻

Well it's your points and money. Do what makes you happy.

[@dustinmarry4993]

I'm guna regret not going after that first buck

[@hardcaliber19]

And that's why you don't pass on a good buck because it's too early in your hunt hahaha.

[@111JZilla]

Randy can you guys do an e-scout how to video like you did for elk? Maybe use Nevada OnX maps as your example? Appreciate the content, much love!

[@longgone9869]

Guys have you ever had anything taken from any of your camps when you were off on the hunt?

[@ericm425]

you could not pay me to walk in only socks 100 feet through any dry western brush

[@alraybaca6235]

You should put the smackdown on them Bucks on the 1st video

[@jameshurd4815]

I now know that Marcus and Mikey are true outdoorsman because they both own Toyota 😁👍

[@davidhurlbert2282]

Like Michael said win some, lose some.i think actually said lose more.thats hunting.

[@kingdaddy4200]

He was taking a nap not watching the deer !!!
