Hunting GENERAL SEASON Bulls | Montana Rifle Elk (Amazon Episode)

In this episode of Fresh Tracks season 8, Randy Newberg is hunting bull elk in Montana hunting a general unit that anyone can go and hunt as long as they have a general elk tag. Joining him is Beau Baty from Wilderness Ridge Trail Llamas and Matt Seidel.
This area gets a lot of hunting pressure but the crew plans to work hard and try to use the competition to their advantage. It doesn't take long to spot herds of bulls. Being a general unit it can be difficult to find a mature bull, but they are able to spot a huge bull that they decide to go after.
Things don't go according to plan at all but it works our in their favor, specifically Beau's favor. With plenty of days and plenty of elk, Randy and Matt both get great opportunities on public land elk despite the amount of other hunters in the area.

So happy for Beau, for a guy who has gone through what he has in the past couple of years it was the coolest thing to see him so happy. That smile over the bull was amazing for a guy as humble as he is, and who never asks for anything in return for his kindness to his fellow hunters. Take care Beau. You’re the man.

[@jetstreek17]

One of the best Elk Hunting videos I've ever seen. Thanks to all who put it together.

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Thanks for watching.

[@nickdorroh1258]

What a treat it would be to share an elk camp with you guys, Randy!!! I love watching your passion for public land elk hunting come through in your storytelling!! Congratulations Beau, Matt, and Randy on your bulls!

[@colinkobel2868]

The fact that you respect and thank every animal is perfect!

[@jward9637]

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. Congrats Beau! Great public land Elk! Good job Matt! What a great hunt! Congrats Randy!

[@norbertodisummo5022]

Randy,I just got my answer Beau. I had to watch it for a second time . I've been under the weather for about a week now a bit out of my comfort zone 🙃 😅 🙂 Great Hunt !!! .

[@wswillett]

There is no finer human being who hunts with the ethics and love Randy has

[@vincentrhea8723]

What a week. What I wouldn't give to be able to do that. A little old and broken up. But I still take my kids and grandkids out every year. Nice bull's for public lands. Totally love all your hunts and podcasts Randy.

[@michaelbosisto6259]

Randy, I have never looked into who you are, outside of hunting videos. I must say that you are a wonderful person. As far as the hunting goes, you give us hunters something to aspire too. I used to be in “the industry “ many years ago, and I can say there are not many of you setting a good example. The people who share camp with you probably would t be there if you didn’t see that example in them as well. I like that you brag about others, but not yourself… only thing is people brag about you with love. Keep up the excellent work, keep doing things for others.

[@stackitlikeabeast3294]

I’ve always felt, the “Camp” is the Hunt.

[@Bowstringdotcom]

I've never seen a Randy Newberg episode I didn't like! Love it!

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Thank you!

[@richardjackson3939]

Lying here with damned Covid and binge watching Randy's video's, makes me feel a bit better and just wondering, should I even consider going back one day? My stent sorted me out back in March (that was close to meeting my maker!), I'm back to full fitness, (apart from the Covid glitch) but do the Montana natives want me chasing their game again? I should count myself fortunate, I've had 2 bulls in 4 visits, all DIY on public as promoted by Randy, but being realistic I'm 62 now, perhaps I should just call it a day and be thankful for what I have done to date, hell there are plenty of deer to shoot in England. Great film chaps.

[@gonzotacticalTV]

Thanks for your dedication and showing the hard work and passion involved in all hunting. My best buddy and myself are driving to Pagosa Springs Colorado in November for OTC elk. Purchased a wall tent and will make it a yearly hunt. Been wanting to do it for 20 years.

[@glennpalmer6214]

Been out to sw colorado twice elk hunting was awesome! Was worth the long drive.

[@NCWoodlandRoamer]

Let us know how it went!! I'm dreaming of this too

[@timothyknutsen5212]

Beau, here we come with the "Llama Uber" That was a great bull Beau, and congrats to Randy the rest of you. You guys found the honey hole.

[@bc3ldr69]

I miss Montana every day! Thank you for all your videos; even the one's outside Montana ~ LoL

[@mikepsly73]

I missed it for 20 years I was away

[@stanleybuck4195]

Randy, you are a champion of hunters. Love your love of hunting.

[@royhoglund1322]

If all I had to hunt elk with was my teeth, I'd need way bigger canines! Happy Birthday Randy!

[@rcon1268]

Imagine if all you had to hunt elk with was your teeth....What a great line and really makes you appreciate the big cats!

[@calvindirette4860]

My oldest son is getting to go hunting for his first year this year, and badly wants to meet Mr. Newberg. Myself, my boy and grandpa would all love it, and we only live 20 minutes away from him.

[@Fresh_Tracks]

If were only 20 miles away, I hope I get to meet him.

[@gamehunter07]

Now that's one heck of a week with a bunch of great friends!! Idk if it could have gotten any better. And a Happy Birthday to boot! Congrats Randy and thanks for sharing such a great adventure! Top notch as usual

[@edwinherrera-nieto-]

another great video, I found your videos about 2 years ago and I just want to say all your hard work and making the videos as well. I'm still working on my first elk, hoping it will happen this year.

[@wilhelmpettygrove7857]

My wife walks in my office “is that the cute one?” Referring to randy... she thinks he’s handsome.

[@timwalters9921]

Congratulations everyone on there elk! What type of gun holder do you guys have while your out hiking around? I would like to get my self one!!

Great hunt Randy. Its been 4 years now as non resident Wyoming Elk hunter and still waiting to get the draw. Would love to get hunt along side you. Some day...but. my city streets need me first..lol. thanks.

[@karljennings6561]

Great deal. Just right size for us. Wish we had bought one sooner.

[@ronaldmcguire1581]

Pretty nice trip for you guys. At 72 it is still exciting as it was at 40 ... just slower.

Best video yet hands down man.

I agree Randy, you are a lucky man. Awesome and inspiring hunt.

[@daveaver]

Thanks Randy.

[@matthewfriedrichs8500]

Three bulls in one trip! Epic!

[@norbertodisummo5022]

Randy always enjoy watching your hunts! But i never really cared to know what caliber you are dropping all those Elk with ? I know is your Howa (Alpine i think) but this elk are being dispatched with no hesitation. Please share Caliber and bullet selection. Happy New Years ! Ps.Please, Share your Llama Packing Outfitter info! Maybe by not limiting my range i can maybe bag an Elk DIY!!! That llama service is a great thing !👍

[@xjuuno2376]

Hey you might've made a video on this before but if you havent, could you possibly make a video on how to measure your scope, etc, for the CDS?

[@Longtrailside]

Happy birthday Randy. As always great content.

Always, always a pleasure.

Man. How do I get to be friends with Randy to get invites like that? Lol I will be doing my first DIY OTC trip in Colorado this year. Just happy to have a change of scenery over Ohio. Good video.

[@elijahmattinen7163]

Does anyone know the dates they were out on this hunting trip? Congrats on all the bulls guys!

[@robertcumming2035]

Man I gotta become friends with you Randy! Looked like an amazing hunt! Of course the year I draw a General Elk tag for Montana, the US/Canada border is closed and not looking like it’s gonna open any time soon...so I turned the tag in. Oh well, I got a bear tag, 3 white tail tags and maybe a moose tag in Ontario so I’ll make the best of it!

[@tommyhunter1817]

Out of state friends? I've never been invited. What the heck?

[@royhoglund1322]

Me either!

[@RockymountainMike]

Great video with a lot of dedication, proper work fellas.

[@MrGuitars8]

I Love All Of Your Videos . After all of this Covid madness is behind us I sure would love to get an Elk.

[@RatdogDRB]

That's an amazing hunt right there. The camera guys should've traded cameras for rifles and pulled out their tags too on this one. Yup, no "more gooder" BD present for Randy, than to have a hunt like this one as a celebration. Nice work fellers.

[@drewcatron344]

Excellent video Randy. Quality as always.

[@michaelbosisto6259]

I sure would like to learn from you guys, looks like to me that a fella could get a lifetimes worth of experience with one hunt with you all.

Awesome video and hunt! Great job everyone!

[@joshpomponio2993]

Thing I like about randy an friends is not all about fillin tags it about the hunt first if I got a tag in my pocket when I’m done it may be a bit of a bummer but it’s ok as long as got to hunt

[@patricks.6812]

I've watched this episode several times and just noticed that at 13:22 it looks like Beau shot his bull through the brow tine.

[@KBBOUTDOORS]

Im 21 and too disabled to hunt elk here in Idaho and I refuse to hunt a ranch bull :(

Try cow calf tag they taste great

Camp of Dreams!!

[@ValcoBayrunner]

Good shooting guys. Impressed with the new Howa rifles. Comfy camp, great pack animals and good friends cant be beat. Im ready to leave Alaska and get back down south. When I used to live in CO I had spruce hens fly out while stalking a bull with my bow and whole herd spooks. I hate those things 😣. You guys should tan those hides and make elk mittens and muzzleloader ball pouches 🤣

Can’t wait to watch it tonight!!!

How did the unfiltered water go for Mat?

[@backcountrysassn7216]

Awesome hunt. Tough to beat your videos

[@gauravshrestha4776]

Hello Randy, I am looking to buy my first binoculars. Do you recommend 10x or 8x? Also do I need a spotting scope too start out with? I am looking to do rifle hunting for elk, mule deer. Optics being expensive, what do you recommend for a new hunter? Thanks

[@loganmorrison2528]

I’m no Randy Newberg but having grown up hunting out west, most guys carry 10x binoculars. Vortex and even Cabela’s HD instincts have high quality options at an affordable price. I don’t have experience with other brands, but I’m sure Leupold has some quality at a fair price. As for the spotting scope I don’t know much about that as I mainly hunt archery elk (I only have time for one good hunt a year and elk hunting during the rut is 💯) and spotting scopes are unnecessary. But for rifle hunting spotting scopes are great to have, but not necessary if you have quality binoculars.

[@gauravshrestha4776]

Why is it that the last few episodes released arent on prime yet? Not that I'm complaining!

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Amazon is slower than cold tar this year. Frustrating for us.

[@liedebunker1253]

I'm concerned with the issue of getting lost in the wild. You guys must be very good navigating yourselves in those mountains. Also, the camp is huge. How do people carry heavy things like that?

[@lanes8237]

The llamas are doing a lot of the heavy lifting. Otherwise you'd have to do a spike camp with a small set of packable tents. He doesn't have those types of camps if he doesn't have llamas.

[@glennpalmer6214]

On X maps. A must have!
