Guys I was wrong...finally started watching the new season and that gut shot on the elk was clearly a ploy to make hunters look bad.

How could I be so blind?!?!?!?

Just watched a few of the new ones. Appeared to be more of the same that makes the show so great. I enjoyed the Sika deer hunt. Its something I don't know much about and I found it interesting. I may even try it one of these years for the experience.

Watched entire season. A+

I cherry picked and watched the Elk and Dall Sheep episodes first. It's not that I wont eventually watch some of the other episodes, I just don't live anywhere near a place I can go crabbing and that isn't a bucket list trip for me.

I started watching them. Good stuff, but I come from a long line of trotline people and enjoy swamps.

Wonder if he would have showed the elk episode if the recovery didn't happen.

I just watched that and like you I don't buy into the conspiracy theory. But let's be honest: the narrative when he said in so many words that the bull might not die from that shot is BS. It was a gut shot and a dead elk...why he said such a stupid thing, on a script nonetheless, is baffling. Either way it looked and sounded bad. More non-hunters will probably watch a show on netflix than any other platform and him showing/saying that is absolutely horrible. He needs to be more conscious of what he is saying/showing!

I want to say there was another episode where he made a shot and didnt recover the animal..I could be wrong though.

Wonder how far that bull went. Little coc broadhead with a low gut shot.

He needs to not shoot montecs they are total crap.

when utilizing the gut shot technique one should use a big ol Mech

I like seeing Steve do some bow hunts, clearly a little out of his element. Dude has ice water in his veins when he is behind a scoped rifle, little different with a bow.

I just wish he'd eventually get better with his turkey calling

Uh, shooting them doesn't help control the population. This has been proven over and over again.

Long term no, short term it absolutely helps..

Killing them all winter has definitely helped our deer herds.

I was disappointed they only used the word smoked in reference to food.

I thought the season was great. I really liked the fact he made a bad shot on the elk, owned up to it, and showed all of the different aspects/thoughts involved in the recovery.

I'm just bummed there aren't any "people of color" in the new season. Since a meateater contributor wrote an entire article detailing how hunting is too white...you'd think the renaissance man himself would have stepped up to the plate and change the racist culture of hunting.

Just got done watching 4 episodes. So far it's pretty good.

Furadan has been shown to halt the existence of coyote populations. Frowned upon for the non-target species ie-birds of prey. Likely why it has gone to the wayside. Just as Meateater has!!!
