"Stalking High Country Giant Mule Deer With Traditional Bows"

Join Bent Bow Outdoor Productions own Rodney York and Colorado bowhunting legend Scott Hargrove for a super exciting spot and stalk high country mule deer hunt with traditional bows. This video is about bow hunting Mule deer at over 12,000 feet elevation in some of the finest habitat North America has to offer. The month long quest follows the challenges of open high country and matching wits with six year and older bucks. The two 70 year old hunters remain determined throughout all engagements and are blessed beyond their dreams.

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

God has not only called us; but blessed us to no end. It is so true - you can outgive God!

[@trainrecked]

Beautiful country some of the very best mulies in one place! I miss the mountains, just don't think my old bones can do it anymore. Great video!

[@longbo2771]

Wow, that's a great video and a great hunt, thanks for posting it.

[@westelkhunts1974]

It’s so cool seeing country I hunt in, in these videos! Love it! Congrats, great stuff

[@kennyjackson3421]

Love it guys! Hopefully one day I’ll be able to get out there and stalk some. For now I’m having a blast hunting these Whitetail in Indiana! God Bless and keep the videos coming!

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

We love hunting those whitetails too, just don’t have many places to do so. I had put in for that mule deer tags for 13 years before drawing.

[@fcain4]

Awesome, just awesome! Thank you for sharing your hunt and more importantly your faith! God Bless!

[@bowhunterelite7317]

Awesome video! Thanks for sharing.

[@seanjorgenson8064]

Your so very blessed to be able to be there I'm happy for you normal hunter emotions.

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

Having the entire experience is such a blessing. From the drawing of the tag, online homework to boots on the ground, the wilderness “calls” us!

[@tradmanmike3360]

JUST LIKE THIS VIDEO SO MUCH HAD TO WATCH IT AGAIN. GOD BLESS!

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

Funny - even though we were there - filmed and edited it - we still enjoy watching it again - especially now that there is only a month before season.

[@TheElementWild]

Nice! Convicting stuff after that stalk! Thanks for sharing.

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

God is ALWAYS there for us to talk to. In the wilderness His love screams our name - always our closest times with God!

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

I was certainly convicted my friend. Little time to feel sorry for one’s self when considering man’s selfish nature and just how blessed we are as we inhale our next breath.

[@maximosanchez631]

Love your content and your Christian words my friend God bless you

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

HE has surely blessed us richly.

[@upland90254]

Really a terrific video. You obviously put in some serious effort to produce a quality product. And I'm very impressed at your tenacity and commitment -- 3 weeks in those conditions isn't easy for people of any age! Well done!

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

Thank you for the encouragement. When in the woods we are never truly alone - that is where we thrive. We have Idaho elk tags this year - sweet!

[@thehuntschool196]

So cool! Really enjoyed watching this!

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

Just what we had hoped for - thank you for sharing your thoughts.

[@SeasonsChange24]

[@tradmanmike3360]

GREAT VIDEO AS ALWAYS! I FEEL You're PAIN! LOL.. MY OLDEST DAUGHTER AND HER FAMILY LIVE IN CASTLE PINES, SOUTH OF DENVER. COLORADO IS GORGEOUS IN THE FALL AND THE AIR IS SO AMAZING. I HOPE TO TAKE A TRAD HUNT OUT THERE, IT;S ON MY BUCKET LIST. EVERY HUNT IS A BLESSING. I TOUGHT MY GRANDSON, EACH HUNT WE ALWAYS PRAY FOR A BLESSING OF THE HUNT. IT ALWAYS COMES TO PASS IN ONE FORM OR ANOTHER. GOD IS GOOD!

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

We seek to praise our Savior and King who gives us not only the desire, but also the strength to be about our business in the woods. Indeed - it is all a blessing we do not take lightly.

[@sterlingwilkey2124]

Awesome video congratulations on a awesome buck. Now iam getting excited for the 2022 season.

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

Thanks - only a few months now - the antlers are “budding” nicely now.

[@drjdward]

Great hunt and video!

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

Thank you - our pleasure - glad you enjoyed it

[@elkhuntr2816]

Inspiring. Cool buck. Looks like a huge whitetail rack with no back forks, but still 4 points on one side.

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

Some of our thoughts as well. We were wondering what this “whitetail” was doing at 13,000 + That was one of the reasons we pursued him.

[@muffintop420]

The one you shot at was different than the one you ended up with lol

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

You are absolutely correct - good eye! We talked about the stalks, and Scott discussed missing several times ( can’t recall if it was 3/4) that was “Sticker” he missed.

[@jblanla]

Amazing content you’re providing . I’m new to traditional archery and just got a 40lb longbow 28 draw length. From experience what hunting arrow setup would you use?

[@bentbowoutdoorproductions4343]

Hi James--email us at [e-mail] for a detailed reply.

[@retartedfilms101]

Great video. What I that felt material on the bottom of your boots? How much does it dampen the noise? Thanks!

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

Those are pull on - I have a small child size to pull on over only socks and another pair to pull on over boots. They work very well and are quiet. Originally they were called “bears feet” - now another company makes a “lace over boot” which quickly tightens up with draw string. I have some of this as well.

[@jblanla]

Hey there guys I'd really love to know your bow and arrow setup? keep pumping out amazing content and God Bless!

[@bentbowoutdoorproductions4343]

[@johnmccluskey9472]

great vids. How many #'s and how long is your bow? Thanks

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

Our Bows are 60” in length, poundage is 53 and 55# Thank you for your comments and questions - glad you are enjoying our videos!

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

Our bows are 62” and 55# at 27” draw. Thank you for watching and for your question.

[@bryanthornton6787]

I can't say it's questioning God, but I do wonder quite often why He gave me a passion for hunting while at the same time didn't give me patience to be successful.

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

Success does not have a singular definition. Our passions are often gifts from God. Through our experiences hopefully we learn. These experiences are meant to be shared with others so they too can grow. Making new friends, navigating your way back home and descending safely from our tree stands are ALL successes. May each of us remember that being outdoors, enjoying the wilderness is a blessing from God. He not only created all things but has continued to blessed us with the ability to go forth and embrace the woods. Sharing our outings with each of you is a success for Bent Bow, and we thank you for the opportunity to do so.

[@phattidaesalmomykiss9203]

What broadheads are you running?

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

We run 2blade Helix Single Bevel 200 and 225 grain most often. As they were unavailable at the time (the company sold) we had Grizzly 300 grain Single bevel and Stringer 155 grain 4blade.

[@aboriginal59]

Where do you get the ghillie style hat may I ask!

[@stikbenderbentbow6687]

Purchased a couple on sale from Cabela’s a couple years back

[@markrasmussen3927]

I would just like to know how old are you young whippersnappers

[@bentbowoutdoorproductions4343]

Nearing 72.
