My FIRST Hunt Of The Season | Nevada Archery Mule Deer (EP. 1)

Randy drew an archery mule deer tag in Nevada, and per usual he links up with longtime friend Scott Jones. They establish a basecamp that they can hunt from and explore the surrounding area. They then head up a road that Scott couldn't make up with his ATV, but is convinced Randy can in his Ford Raptor.
The guys spend the evening glassing the landscape looking for any buck that gets them excited. The next morning they are up bright and early to continue to survey the landscape. The thick smoke from wildlfires makes it difficult but Randy is able turn up some bucks.
Once Randy gets a buck bedded he makes a plan to make his first stalk of the season. With any luck he'll have an opportunity to fill his first Nevada archery deer tag in 10 years.

Great Job Randy it's great to see you and Scott hunting That's awesome to see friends and hunting together and the camp and food God's Blessings

[@Andrew_382]

Thanks for all these episodes free of charge. We really appreciate it

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Happy to do it. I just wish the free model did not require that viewers and their personal information become a currency that KZbin/Google uses as the core of their business model. Thanks for watching.

[@JamesWillmus]

As long as you and the team are getting enough to bring home the bacon, pay the bills, and go out to do it again next year then I'm happy! There's nothing Google has on me that's worth a damn anyway.

[@tomxiong2207]

Tracked all the way to the deer’s bed and they stomp off.. True hunting right here. Thanks Randy!!!

[@centurione6489]

These videos are therapeutic. They show that even the best can go home with an intact tag ...🦌😅

[@RatdogDRB]

All those Brats cooked up, I figured you boys were planning ahead to have breakfast Brats going up the hill in the dark, and a snack while on top. Workin' hard, rather than smart there Dilly Bar! Good seein' you doing "more gooder" Randy.

[@averagearcher9523]

I appreciate the content from your sidekicks but nothing compares to Mr Newberg on the screen. Thanks for all the free entertainment.

[@sav300]

Agreed. Really enjoy the whole crew, but Uncle Randy is so enjoyable.

[@soonerfrac4611]

So glad he’s back into shape and feeling better.

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Glad you like them!

[@OneMoreGrave]

Glad you're on the up and up Randy. Hope you have a great season!

[@vitaly6312]

Just tagged out. First archery hunt lasted all of 2 hours. Small 3x3 but I’m super happy. 2 more rifle seasons to go!

[@scottcarter461]

You guys are definitely inspiring. Older than dirt out there chasing Muleys.

[@Fresh_Tracks]

We just don't "chase them" as fast as we did 20 years ago.

[@scottcarter461]

@@Fresh_Tracks hahaha no doubt! I'm just as bad...just got a hip replacement yesterday and I am all camoed up getting ready for blacktails 👍 one week away ❤️love your show

[@Kennoisewater123]

Listening to Randy talk- how can you not love his passion for hunting and the outdoors in general. Keep it coming sir- we love it!

[@normankaster917]

Ahhh bow hiking, my favorite.... Them bucks don't know what's coming in morning, game on!

[@HappyinJesus]

I know little about hunting and care about it even less, but I know a funny story hunters might enjoy. My hubbys former coworker won two tags in the NM hunting lottery. He had like a week or so to bag a bear and an elk near Silver City, few hours away. Dude broke his arm hunting the bear, found out he needed surgery to fix it, but delayed long enough to bag an elk in his allotted timeframe...with a bow and a broke arm. Mission accomplished though!

[@tomnguyen7412]

Love your videos Randy and thank you.

[@mikecowan3222]

Another great video for those of us in Northern Nevada.

[@The.bearded.bowmen]

I saw you on the highway last summer in Nevada I couldn't believe my eyes I was starstruck

[@williammcclelland6789]

Sure do love this time of year and Randy Newberg.

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Thank you.

[@mikecollins8241]

After months of 90+ degree weather, it is finally cooler (70's) and cloudy here in NE... I think this evening I need to take my bow for a walk in the woods

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Do it.

[@hardfought1842]

Haha we’re either gonna be a Ford commercial or rolling back down the hill!

[@stypo6862]

Simply put……you are awesome!

Thank you

[@jordanhawkins7309]

I really enjoy the nevada videos with scott jones! Glad to see your back out hunting again.

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Scott's gonna make many appearances this season.

[@colinkobel2868]

Scott needs an old felt hat with the brim folded up into a big Texas smile and leading a burrow all packed up! Lol, he could play a prospector in a movie! Sure enjoy all the hunts!

[@Fresh_Tracks]

I can see that image very well in my mind. He fits the mold perfectly.

[@jackmoyer2174]

You have become my favorite hunting content provider. Then when you add Dr. Scott, ….BAM!!! Keep on adding it for those of us that don’t have a budget for subscription content. Thanks!!

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Will do.

[@ram_bam]

Good to see you back at it, Randy. You're such a natural behind the camera.

[@fabiancastaneda8172]

I recognized my local Albertsons!! I really wish I could’ve seen you that definitely would’ve been a great 19th bday present! Definitely would’ve also made my day and my “hunting season.” No tags this year for me sadly.

[@HikeHuntHaul]

Good ole' Nebraska Boys ;-) Good Eatn'! Great video!

[@archeryelkhunter]

The nuggets of knowledge I get in these videos is priceless!! I.e. wind behaves like water!! Thanks Randy!!!!!

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Glad we have something useful, as our ability to fill tags seems to be lacking on these Nevada archery deer hunts.

[@klwit1980]

Thanks for all of your videos Randy, and your crew behind the scenes.

Thanks for watching!

[@dougmiller8099]

Glad to the season get started. Good luck to the whole crew. Stay safe!

Thank you.

[@williamc6555]

Love that you called Scott's trailer the "Taj Mahal." Haha. When my dad brought his new camper to our hunting lease a few years ago it took about 3 hours before it got the same nickname. Thanks for the great hunts, Randy (and team)!

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Thank you for watching.

[@zeldarobinson3382]

Thank you Randy great to see the new content and age it's just a number .stay safe everyone

[@Fresh_Tracks]

True, age is just a number. I thought about that this weekend while I was chasing elk in the Montana mountains. What is the number and does the number even matter?

[@zeldarobinson3382]

@@Fresh_Tracks No the number does not matter it's how we think,I read years ago what we think we create ,think your old you age , think I'm sick or will get what ever illness is going around you attract that illness . If you have pain thank the pain or illness for the life lesson and let it go. And really see it going away and gone . I'll be 75 in 3 months and I have great health,no grey hair and never think of being old . Our best years are ahead of us .see yourself as young and energetic as your cameramen .Mind over matter . Enjoy the hunting season .and thanks for the new videos awesome

[@mtbadger1346]

Glad you recovered from the COVD Mr. Newberg. My 16yr old daughter just tested positive today. Really really appreciating this video, considering I used to live in Ely, Nevada and miss it greatly.

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Best of luck to your daughter! Hope she is well by now.

[@ilenehailey1079]

Thank you Scott... Definitely FERAL horses! Irresponsible humans have let those horses go to devastate the landscape. Enjoyed the content, it's hard to believe you guys can pick those deer out of that stark landscape! Can't wait for the next episode.

[@calebharris5115]

I agree with you on the horses situation they have ruined me and my dads hunts for the past two years Nevada needs some horse management

[@scottjonesfamily1440]

Definitely need less feral horses on the land scape.

[@BCVS777]

Thought for a minute there we might get to see you collaborate with Matts Off Road Recovery! 😀

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Me too. I took my seatbelt off and told the guys to bail if they see me bailing.

Brats and Bucks... great episode! Can't wait to see what happens next.

[@markgillespie6440]

Hey Randy, love your videos! They keep me salivating until I can get back out in the field. Good to see you guys " roughing it " ....the great old campout experience. I notice you seem to motel it mostly when hunting Wyoming ? I hate to be more than a 1/2 hour drive from where we start hunting.

Good. Video. And appreciated Weather. You get a deer or not. And meeting friends. Is all important. We true hunters. Will. Know. What’s important. And if we don’t get a deer. We can saw. The elements. And the deer were. Better. What’s wrong with that. Only true hunters will understand

[@seedsandfishhooks]

Beautiful views. Amazing.

Thanks for watching

[@richarddean3154]

I like your friend's attitude about the deer being fine eating. My wife only eats venison because she thinks they get to live an awesome life before they are made into table fare. Lucky me. Good luck, Sir and glad to see you back in the wild country after your experience with COVID.

Thank you. Scott has a way of convincing me to chase every deer we see.

You should make a video of the food you take on a hunt like this!

[@troytownsend1730]

Reading a book by Dwight Schuh, renowned Bow hunter, writer who hunted the High Desert. He passed away a few years ago, but he shared that he would take his boots off too sneak up on the deer, as the crunching of the Rocks and dried vegetation underfoot can be quite loud. sneaking up on deer in the High Desert with foliage cover only thigh high seems like an undaunting task even with a rifle. Just started the book. I will be hunting the High desert this coming rifle season, wont be in my socks but did see a pair of shoes that had soft flesh like soul. Might take my boots off after spotting game and slip on the shoes for the stalking part. Good try, the fact that there out there during a drought gives me hope, as I might actually see something and that my hunting trip does not just turn into a camping trip only, on account that I mistaken the unit that I picked for the area I wanted to hunt so I am stuck with this High desert tag during a drought. Again good try, beautiful country, and I will take notes from this video Thanks again.

Randy you used rock crawl , did you try trail control too? It's low speed cruise control. Also Randy Xplorer makes a very nice all weather off road camper. Rated to -40. Marcus and Jonathan could get you 1 for Christmas i would think. They are built in Wisconsin.

Had an Colorado elk tag in 2012 we got there and they had unfortunately just moved the sheep out just before the season opened. I can attest that elk dont like sheep either.
