Strand has to be one of the happiest dudes alive…even when the action’s slow…always a smile on that man’s face!! That’s the way to live!!!

Great job guys! As to the wildfires, obviously the weather is a major factor, but the decades of poor fire management is really getting to a head in much of the West.

I agree with you Trent any legal bull is a shooter in my book

Love the series. That's a shooter bull any day, every day. It's all about THAT moment. I called in a bull this year to 30 yards. 5 point bull, not the biggest. But the way it happened, my hunting partner will never forget it. He heard the bugle that I missed. I called, and he came in full bore on a string. Stopped 10' into the opening and stared at my hunting partner for a moment he won't forget.

I believe the answer to the missing eye can be heard when you first come up on the elk. 🦅

The smoke dust flying off the bow when he shot….! Nuts. Congrats.

Shoutout to you guys for your game bags. This year I was on a mountain in the middle of a rut fest and it didn’t come together that day for me but an hour later I happened on a young man and his buddy who had just shot his first bull. They weren’t prepared w game bags so I helped them and let them use my born and raised ones. They were so grateful. The bags worked awesome. They washed them and returned them. And I’m sure they’ll be ordering some. Excellent product. Thanks.

Love that you're putting dates on videos

Run Daniels “ didn’t go 20” ✌️😂

If you watch the slowmo clip back. You can see a piece of the tree branch fly off and the branch it self start vibrating. Great shot guys

Shout out to BRO crew Chad Melstrom from Wisconsin here. I was fortunate to finally venture out on my first ever Elk hunt this past September in the great state of Colorado. On our very first morning I found myself in a bugling match with another bull I raked a tree, then I could hear raking and closing the distance. Just then a spike bull came to 3 yards looked right at me barked and the gig was up!. After that the action slowed way down but those first 2 hrs made my trip I can’t wait to get out there and get after it again. Love what you guys do and what you stand for keep up the good work. God Bless

Every season, every episode, every scene…just pure class! I love watching all of you. Unlike the TV shows your videos show the human side - triumph, frustration, success, etc. Keep at it PLEASE! I literally live these hunts through you guys! Steve

Eye being gone could have been from a bird in the time it took you guys to get to town !

That’s what I was thinking. Pretty sure I heard a raven in the background at one point before the shot.

I caught that 'going deep in the back country' The Boys were thinking it for sure! LMAO!!

Best hunting channel on KZread.

The quality of the hunt, the camaraderie, the videography, everything about this one is top shelf. Congrats to Strand and all of the guys involved. You guys are a level above everything else. Keep it up guys! Love your videos.

Really appreciate the kind words!

Thinking about y’alls future generations watching is so cool. Keep it up!

Absolutely enjoy your videos and thoroughly enjoy the the praise that you give the Lord for fellowship

We were always told not to shoot across a road unless it's gated...

Awesome hunt guys! My brother has 18 points for that unit and I am hoping he draws this year! I work in the town you guys got the hotel and wish I could have met y’all! After you shot and we’re heading back while on the phone you could almost see my house! Pretty awesome seeing a hunt where I knew where you guys were. Very well done!

Strand that shot was money. Great job and way to keep it together. I know your heart must have been pounding out of your chest.

I know that unit well and if I had seen that bull coming over the ridge screaming like that, I'd have killed it! Way to go Eric, and the whole crew!

Congrats! Looks like birds ate the eye in the time you went to town and back

Just watching that Dinosaur coming out of those trees! What a spread!

Started watching you guys in Afghanistan in 2016 and been hooked ever sense. Keep it coming.

Great bull! Boy, what a tough pack out! LOL I had a opportunity like that on a muzzle loader hunt a few years ago. Cows up and down the slope next to the road. Partner did a bugle and here he comes! About 125 yards broadside and I had a hang fire! Bullet went right over his back. A 350 class bull that haunts me to this day.....

Here we go Guy's ,I Pray you find the Big Guy 💪. It's terrible News about the smoke. Y E S 🎉🎊🤭💥✔️. Thank you Guys for the Wonderful adventure and the INTENSE RIDE,SO EXCITING TO ME🤗. He's a Giant! CONGRATULATIONS 👏👍🎉🎊🌠🎈🎆 . JO JO IN VT 💞💨❄️

So happy for you Eric. You’re a class act and always wanting the best for others. This bull was well worth the 18yrs. Congrats my friend and Bro Team way to help a guy out fulfilling his dream. Your shows have never disappointed over the years. They just keep getting better. Also the new format, should stay this way for ever!!!! So much easier to follow.

Great job guys. You captured the essence of a fair chase hunt with stck and string. Very well done but more importantly, you captured the best part; the priceless Camaraderie of best friends you can rely on when push comes to shove. We pick oir few hunting partners very, very carefully. They become part of our sacred circle.👍

Been waiting for this year’s LOF since last year. I lost last year’s hunting season due to getting Covid and almost dying, on oxygen for 4 months, then this year I found out the hard way my lungs still aren’t 100%, so these videos keep me motivated and I watch them while doing my cardio to help my lungs out. Been following you guys forever and you never disappoint!

As you may know, Medford area hit 118°. Somehow we had a mild fire season. God bless our firefighters! God help our politicians!

Heck yeah!!! Congratulations Strand!! What a hunt.

I love Monday's now!

Congrats Strand! Good job of holding it together. Can't believe those cows just fed through. Great filming

Congratulations on a 18 year dandy and the easy packout...I just love Mondays !!!

What a great shot with amazing patience! Well done on such a great bull!

The patience and calmness in those moments leading up to the shot, fun to see. Get Some!

I love the camaraderie of a group of hunters. There's nothing like the shared love and joy of a team success like that. 👍👍👍

Strand you never said you were road hunting. Congrats again, great video like always. I'll be waiting for the next one.

Great shot and lots of knowledge to be gained in this footage on the value of patience....but the very worst cow calling I ever here is the adrenaline fueled elk calling. LOL! I was thinking based on the camera angle I was pretty sure you had a hole.

Awesome hunt. Thanks for sharing! Congratulations Eric what a Great Bull! Looking forward to seeing Trent out there in the woods!

Awesome video great hunt. Great bull love all that you guys do best part for me is Strand talking to Trent as he rolls through the town? I’m a resident of Northeast Oregon is awesome thanks boys.

Love to see it! What an amazing bull, and an amazing experience! When he screamed at 40, I lost it!!! TOO COOL

I was skeptical about once a week videos but you guys have done an awesome job. The stories to the editing to the actual hunts. What a great channel. Keep it up and God bless.

Appreciate the compliment more than you know!

Awesome video! They don't go far when you hit them like that! And yes definitely a shooter. Having never killed an elk , they were all shooters!! LOL! Looking forward to next video.

Congrats Strand, amazing bull! My husband and I have been watching you guys for 4 years now and have grown to make your episodes our Monday evening routine. You all have inspired us in so many ways and we refer to your videos more than you can image. Thank you for sharing all your experiences and knowledge with us, and the love you have for the outdoors and hunting. We can’t wait to see you at the sportsman show this February! #merica 🇺🇸

Outstanding Bull, great shot Strand, my heart was pounding. Lol You kept it together and got him. Much respect and love

Best set of videos I’ve seen! I’m learning so much and planning my first hunt!

Awesome job Strand great bull , another great Monday night, way better than football, so great watching you guys thanks God bless.

I don't know how none of the other elk didn't spot you and blow out it seems like you were in the wide open on the side of the road there😲😳 that's awesome!!!!!! Congrats on the huge bull!!!!

Once-in-a-lifetime or a lifetime of experience coming together all at once it doesn't matter. Really appreciate the content and the sanity it brings between archery elk seasons.

You know, watching ur videos, the one thing that is first and foremost is the camaraderie, and love that you guys have for one another. Sure it’s great to shoot an animal, especially a tank of a bull like that, but the most memorable moments from a hunt is the time u share with ur family, ur friends, ur brothers in God’s creation. Well done!!!

Way to go Strand, when you let that arrow go I said out loud perfect shot that bull isn’t going 100 yards. This series has been great and I can’t wait for mondays. I’m a BRO fan for life.

Actually got to meet Cody in Oregon when I was at lunch for work. Most down to earth dude , love the born and raised guys show how hunting should be. Friends,family,God n memories. Never forget my first deer I got because it was with friends and family.

What an awesome group of guys,what a beautiful Bull, congrats brother

That pack looks sooo comfortable. I need me one of those. Great work again guys.

Congratulations Stran what an epic hunt!

Here we gooo! Can’t wait to see what hits the dirt!

Awesome. Huge congratulations to Strand. Don't know if I could have been that patient..lol.. There again I haven't killed an elk yet. Looking forward to my next hunt. Feel I have learned alot from you guys. Looking forward to the rest of yalls season.

Way to wait for the right bull! Congratulations.

Great video like always. You guys work your butts off for that bull. Congratulations on a stud. And the east pack out is a huge bonus 😂

Badass video and hunt guys! It's hard to say no to bull like that, especially after he rips off a screamer bugle.. 🤟🤟🤟

Congratulations to Eric and team. I hope that isn't a Starbucks in Kody's hand. LOL Keep up the good work boys.

Congratulations on a great public land bull, a great bull,anywhere. Strand showed a lot of patience and discipline to hold off until he found what he wanted. Thank you guys for the great videos. I'm getting older and my time in the elk woods is getting shorter. I'll be able to experience the the highs the lows and the joy of elk hunting for a lot of years to come thanks to you guys.

Amazing! I was hoping you would find out where the eye ended up! Gnarly!

A fricking MONSTER BULL! The bull of a lifetime. Congratulations, you lucky dog! 👍👍

They way you guys are absolutely selfless towards each other and others is more than awesome, it’s inspiring. Keep up the things you guys do it gives a little light in an already dark world. Proud to watch and learn from you guys.

Beautiful bull! Congrats!! Too bad the birds got the bull's eye lol !

Been catching up with LOF first season in Wyoming wow loving those old episodes while waiting for new ones thanks bro’s

Congrats Eric beautiful bull man

i bought the first videos made by the original bro crew and they are still my fav, true brotherhood.. but these are awesome too .. from humble beginnings

As ol Rut’ster is say’en: Didn’t go twenty! Nice job guys and greetings from Germany! Love your videos!

You all have the best intros. Every season!

Love the set up could not of happened any better. Nice shot.

Good hunt and great bull! Also, congrats on getting him so close to the road! :)

Another great video and an amazing bull. I like how the video shows Strand calming himself down before the shot. I know his heart had to be pounding. The footage of the bull bugling as he comes out into the clear is amazing. Love it. Looking forward to the next one and next season already.

Way to go!!! That what I’m talking about. Congratulations man. God bless brother

You guys inspire a lot more than u know because of you guys me and my twin brother both got sucked into the archery world last year and it was absolutely some of the greatest times I’ve ever had the pleasure of living in and also because of you guys I killed my first spike and for that matter bull ever this year and I’ve been hunting now for 10 years, so I appreciate all the work you guys do and keep it up

Nice shooting Strand! I would have pissed down my leg having a bull of that caliber come in like that. Had a stud at 50 with no shot this year and felt like I was standing on a jack hammer for a minute. The breathing definitely helps!

Something special about a draw hunt. I know I enjoyed each experience so much I didn't want it to end! If you're lucky, you get to pass on critters until the right one comes along.

Wow , congratulations Eric

Awesome bull! I love watching you guys and the joy you have. I also appreciate you guys giving glory to God from whom all blessings flow. God bless

thank you guys so much for sharing your experiences with us,i am a bow hunter myself living in the pacific northwest and ive taken my fair share of elk mostly cows but i did take one huge herd bull a massive 6x6 a few years ago,nothing can ever come close to topping those feelings and emotions we get when you encounter a true giant!!you guys rock,thanks again

Crows took that eye out

Thanks guys!!

I am glad Stand was able to get it done. I look forward all year to these series and they do not disappoint. I can only hope to be half the hunters that you are. I am trying to hit the woods every chance I get. Elk, Deer, duck, sandhill crane, quale. The inspiration you have given me from the start of your LOF and the flyway has been amazing. signed up for the shirt of the month club in the first hour it was out. Still have not put on the Tagged out shirt as I did not get an elk this year but still have a mule deer tag in my pocket and oryx. If you are ever in NM I would love to me you all.

Possibly My favorite episode from you guys since Land of the Free started. The intro gave me chills. Loyal fan of 7 seasons now. Keep killing it guys.

Congratulations!!! There is nothing like sharing an experience like that with good friends or family. A memory you will treasure for all time. Great video as always.

What an amazing hint. Congrats, Strand. You made the right decision. I bet this was one you'll talk about for the next 18 years.

Oh man here we go! Can wait to see what hits the dirt!

Nice bull man!! I bet a crow or raven got that eye.

I would say what happened to his eye is a bird pecked it out. Ravens and Crows love to start with the eyes. Seen it many times before. Congratulations on an awesome bull.

Bird picked his eye out.

Congats Eric! Couldnt have happened to a better guy!

I know that I would have a hard time passing up on any of those bulls you guys had come in. Credit to Strand for keeping his calm and holding out for the bull that really got him excited. Great videos of a great hunt!

Congratulations Eric ! What a absolute stud bull ! That was such a cool encounter with all those cows feeding and not having a clue you were there ! It was such an awesome sight when he come over that ridge !! Great job guys ! Keep bringing it !!!! So awesome !!!

Great shot and great bull. Well worth the wait.

Sooo excited for this episode 🙏🏻😂 I’ve Watched every video on this channel probably three times over , this year land of the free has been soo awesome thank you guys for the awesome content , ordering off the website for next season, and all I’ve ask for , for Christmas is born and raised , gear 😂 Thanks again guys and congrats strand !! 🍻

Yet another amazing video. Totally agree that shot of the bull cresting that ridge then bugling was amazing. The shot strand made into that tight little window with that much emotion going was incredible especially with all those cows around to bust out and blow the opportunity. Enjoying the editing of the video also. I totally agree with y’all’s comment on authenticity that drew me into your channel plus y’all bringing a south Louisiana boy into the elk woods every week. Love what y’all do and the way y’all go about doing it. This one got me fired up because on Christmas Day my father and cousin and myself leave for our much awaited whitetail deer muzzleloader hunt in NW Missouri. Traveling 16 hours away from south Louisiana to the land of the giants as y’all like to call it. Congratulations Strand on an awesome bull and can’t wait till next week for another great video.

Awesome Bull Strand and a awesome shot congrats

Great bull, I wouldn’t pass on that one! I really enjoy the videos.
