Let me take you on a virtual Hunt
Big Deer hunting in a mountain meadow. I hiked into an alpine basin surrounded by forest with a crystal clear stream running through the centre of it.
A big old Stag came into the meadow just before dark and chased away a younger Red Stag.

Would love to see your cooking at camp sit chur!!

[@AMG63]

One man hunt with footage like that, well done sir 👍

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Thankyou my friend!

[@thor_6886]

I'm not a hunter, but I've watched a bit of your stuff as it pops into my feed. I appreciate the stunning cinematography, the skill involved in your stalk and the way you tell the story. Beautiful country we live in, for sure. This was SO much more real than the shooting on private blocks of what appear to be more or less captive, managed animals. The smile on your face said it all.

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Thanks man this is a good comment to read. So what brought you to watch the hunting videos, have you ever wanted to go hunting or are you just curious or enjoy the outdoors? I'm interested to see why you clicked on my videos mate, thanks for the comment I really appreciate it

[@thor_6886]

@@j.e.wilds-hunting I'm a keen fisho and follow quite a few channels like the Morningtiide boys, so I think I either got recommended or linked to one of your top water kingie vids. Amazing stuff. From there, I think the algorithm sends me some of your stuff, but I also watch a bit of Rogee Productions etc, so maybe from those hunting views? Either way, fishing is the same hunting instinct, I believe, and I have shot a few hares, rabbits etc and have a licence - so the outdoors and hunting stuff is of interest. I just can't be bothered with watching shoots of non free-range animals, no matter how dramatic the footage or how big the antlers. Lone hunter with his old canine mate, stalking a wily old 9 pointer in the stunning wilderness, you bet.

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

@@thor_6886 we all share the same passions whether we hunt or fish, same drive just different playing fields. Good to hear your enjoying the missions man. Thanks for reaching out also! I just got back from a 3 day Tahr hunt so look forward to some snowy mountain videos coming up

Everytime you release a New video you always Impress me with the editing and the experience. Props to another awesome video with great content

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Thanks my friend I am glad you feel this way, I hope to get a bunch more films up soon, I'm just hunting at the moment

[@terenceandlee-annegroves4248]

Very well done on the hunt, showing great maturity as a hunter, awesome job on the filming but best of all sharing it with your best mate. That dog may be old, sore from walking but being with you on a hunt is what he lives for. Well done!!!

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Thanks and your right, he really doesn't like me leaving him at home haha. Hes old but that means I just have to walk slower. Thanks for the comment!

Your photography videography and editing is 🔥 awesome part two. Thanks for bringing us along.

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Thanks Jeremy glad to bring you guys along for the ride of course

Hopefully one day you will get the chance to experience it here! I agree with you NZ is a paradise. Glad you enjoyed the video

An excellent video and epic stag ending

[@craigs.handle]

Finally...Thanks Joe! Epic video... really told the story with a nice flow and pace. The back (strap) story was great...you shared a 10-years-waiting experience with us...really, thanks Dude. The comfort level you have in that environment shows through in the video quality. just a man & his dog on a romp. Cheers!

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Thanks man I'm glad you enjoyed it! Haha yeah I've spent enough time in the Bush that sometimes I get nervous when I'm in town 😬 haha. Cheers for the comment mate I appreciate it!

[@user-zc7hh5kl9q]

Love watching you and your mate . You put in the big yards and reap the rewards and your footage is first class. You are very selective with the animals you shoot which is great and getting paid for something you love to do is a bonus. Cheers

[@therickpound]

First shot was perfect, second was a safety.

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Exactly! Bullets are cheap

[@dancochrane7699]

Yer boi. What an awesome video bud i really enjoyed it you just in one video captured all the reasons why i love to hunt - the crazy beautiful nz backcountry, the amazing animals that call it home and the hard work it takes to do it safely while paying respect to any animal that is harvested. Kia Kaha, keep it up. O for orsome. Yeow.

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Thanks man glad you enjoyed it and the whole experience is the reason we do it isnt it. The kill is the part I dont like. Thanks for the comment mate I appreciate it

[@dancochrane7699]

JE Wilds totally agree. Exciting. Fun. Bittersweet all at the same time. Always feel almost a bit sad when I knock one over but I love it all the same. Good luck - looking forward to the next one.

[@MountainBreez]

This (part 2) is my favourite of the trip Joe. Awesome to see the genuine, 'as it happens' excitement. I love your cinematic work but these more 'raw' and natural edits make everything more real, more 'actual' in the story telling sense. Top notch Joe ... looking forward to more content. Cheers, Matt.

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks Matt, always good to see a comment from you mate. Have a good evening

Awesome part 2.really set the scene in part 1.I do alot of solo hunts like this myself so appreciate what you go through.Its not all about the kill that's for sure. Thanks for sharing.

[@nathandougherty7058]

Hey Joe, I got a stag this size lower down the valley, roar of 2022, just above the lower valley rapids. Not as old, but a good 10 points. Beautiful valley, eh. A ton of animals in there. My first stag, my first deer in ages after some poor luck ( or skill ;p ) Glad you had an awesome trip. Special place.

[@haussolutions6244]

Brilliant. I’ve only recently ‘found’ your channel and loving every bit of it. You’re approaching the filming in a really novel, artistic way and importantly not glorifying the ‘kill’ which so many seem to do. From here in Scotland, my own stalking is every bit as spectacular with scenery just like NZ (maybe a bit smaller!). Great advert for NZ and respectful stalking. When I eventually make it over to NZ, I’ll be booking a guided trip with you guys! Some gear reviews would be good too but keep the videos coming!

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

What part of Scotland are you from? I have always wanted to go experience the Roar over there

[@haussolutions6244]

JE Wilds Originally from Inverness in the Highlands but now on the outskirts of Glasgow. Mostly Roe deer and fallow down here but plenty of Reds up north. If you ever fancy coming over, would be delighted to sort some guided days for you.

[@j.e.wilds-hunting]

Roe Deer is on my list too! I may have to visit one day my friend

[@fishmainia6394]

My first deer a 10 pt stag I learnt what you just said .Stag done I straddled him to cut his throat ,soon as the knife touched him he racked his top 4 tines across my throat .I climbed off real fast . Another bullet was a cheap thing but me scared but lucky 2 hrs from hut .Horomunga, Te Urawera . Shoulder shot @ 20m bush hunting stag down but not out ,threat those antlers with respect guys .
