Into the Clouds: Sitka Blacktail Deer | S1E01 | MeatEater
Спорт
Steven Rinella charters a float plane to drop him off on a remote lake in Alaska’s coastal rainforest for a solo Sitka blacktail deer hunt. Challenging terrain, thick fog, and rain won't make it easy--but it could be worth a camp meal of tenderloin. Check out the MeatEater Podcast for more from Steve and the MeatEater Crew.

"Hunting involves missing" honesty is what makes this the only realistic hunting show ever.

Yeah surely, if you're running around shooting at tiny Blacktail 350 yards away. I love and envy your freedom to hunt on your own in the americas, but you aren't always living up to the responsibility that follows with it. In Scandinavia we don't tolerate wounding animals, we'll bring in dogs to finish the job. Shooting at beyond 200 yards is frowned upon (and frankly shooting rather than hunting), and missing is shameful because you could just as well shoot it's jaw off and doom it to weeks of pain.

Other commenters have touched on this, but the beauty of this show, is that it’s real. He shows the misses, the bad hits, the guilt and anger you feel as a hunter. And the overall struggle that makes the experiences and success worth it. Show’d my girlfriend, who’s never hunted, doesn’t have a single family member immediate or extended that hunts or fishes. And she loved the show, and has a new found respect for the sport!!! That’s all because of how well put together these episodes are, and how eloquently Steve describes all aspects of hunting!
THANK YOU FOR POSTING IT HERE.
The first reason I love this show is because I was raised to hunt for my family not my wall and it’s good to see a guy on a show who doesn’t only trophy hunt. I’ve been retired for over a decade now from hunting due to personal reasons but I’m itching to get back into it!!!
Thanks for uploading this. Not sure how else I would’ve watched it.

Try watching the hunting public a lot more entertaining gun hunting is very boring. I go gun hunting to its very boring bowhunting is a lot more entertaining to watch.
For all those concerned about flying and hunting on the same day...from page 19 of the 2020-2021 Alaska Hunting Regulations guide: "You may hunt deer the same day airborne (provided you are 300 feet from the airplane)." Could have been different 10 years ago but I'm pretty sure Rinella knows his stuff in regards to the regs.

Let's gooo!!!! Hopefully this is the start of airing all the episodes/seasons that aren't on Netflix. I can't get enough of this show!
I love that the show has always stayed true since the very first episode! Steven is, by far, the best hunting personality out there today! So much knowledge and respect for the game he hunts and the people he meets and shares his trips with.
Watching just how he moves and operates on camera is so nice because him getting comfortable has educated so many people
It's interesting to see how the show has changed. Good stuff.

I started on the newer seasons, but I sort of like the feel of these older episodes better. Less scripted, less fancy gear. Just feels more visceral and real.
Steve you have relit my desire to harvest meat again. Thank you.
Started watching this show on youtube a few days ago and I’ve been hooked since. It’s crazy interesting seeing how much more comfortable the camera-people get throughout the episodes. The shake on the kill shot is something you never see in newer seasons, and it was the first time I realized how freaky it must be trying to focus on that animal without knowing when a gunshot will happen 10 feet from you lol. Such an amazing show though, everything about it is exactly as it should be
Thank you guys for posting the older seasons on youtube. Really appreciated because they aren't on netflix. Favorite show!

It's a different kind of badass that will climb a mountain to feed himself and his family. Steve is humble about it but there's too few people like him in the world. I hunt deer every year and do my best to fill my freezer but I won't pretend to be like him.
lol missed a shot continues with “that was the biggest blacktail I’ve ever seen” damn that’s the kinda shot that keeps you up at night . Great show keep it coming please
I am so grateful for this. I was so excited when y'all made the first season available online; but actually posting on youtube makes it so accessible!
My friends and I started hunting because of steve and meateater! We love it! Keep up the great work folks!
Yes more Blacktail videos. Love them.
Steve rinella is my hero!
I love this show its preparing me for my first hunting trip next year
Please for the love of god, post your older seasons 1 episode a week and I will shit bricks. I watch everything on KZread and Netflix by you once every 6 months. Please.....more sir. I must have MOAR!!!!
Yessssss please put the other seasons on here that aren't on Netflix! Would happily pay to watch them.
what i like about Rinella, bar none, he eats what he shoots. So much respect.
I hunt vicariously through this dude cuz I can barely walk so I love to see this guy go wherever the game takes him
Thank you for putting these old seasons up
I like the way you are thinking and conversing with yourself... Every second of your thinking is reflected with your eye movements..... THE BEST HUNTER I've come across on KZread
This shit bring me to tears of Joy. A truly beautiful life
So glad I found your channel, I haven't watched in a few years and recently have had that itch to get back out and hunt. Thanks for posting these old episodes, really gets me motivated. Let's eat!
Im a city boy, grew up in Los Angeles area most of my life. Never hunted a day in my life. Damn it Steve, watching your vids inspires me to try it some day. Thanks for the education.
I lived in Sitka for almost 7 years. Lived off of Black Tail, Halibut, Black Bear, Salmon, and so forth. Sitka Black Tail, next to Moose, is the best tasting game out there imo.

Hands down the best hunting/fishing show ever!! Love how you show everything. Hit/miss field to table,passion and all. Keep up the great work
Steve i grew up in the same area as you. West michigan. Grand rapids to be exact. Ive always been attracted to big open hunts like this but never have had the opportunity. You are so right about hunting in michigan. Between population of hunters and land ownership hunting in michigan is mostly sitting in a blind over bait. To me thats not hunting. I want to be out tracking and have to work for my reward. Love what you do man. Glad you show the ups and downs of hunting and show that not every shot is going to hit and not every hunt will yield meat. But its the enjoyment of being out that makes those losses okay. So what if i missed a shot or didnt get any meat. I got to spend time in beautiful country and see postcard sights and experience wildlife in a intimate way.
Thank you for sharing an old episode. One of my favorites
One of my favorite episodes of yours, thanks for posting it up!
Love the show. Haven't hunted since I was a kid but I'm working on getting back into it.
What gets me is how humble he is about hunting. He shows his failures as much as he shows his successes. And he always talks about the meat, not how awesome it will look on his wall. People need to realize that there are different types of hunters.

He is a lot less humble on the podcast. I like the shows he puts out and the people that work with him, but, on the podcast, he comes across as a self important asshole. I much prefer Clay Newcomb's podcast "Bear Grease".

Never hunted a day in my life but can't get enough of these vids .. binged so many already

Just when I thought you guys couldn't get more awesome, you go and do something like this.

Hell Yes!! Ready for S1 , Ep 2....bring em all...one by one on thru here!! Love this!!
One thing I can see between young Steven and old Steven in late season is you don't rush to hunt like this. I like it when you arrive at the hunting site then spend a couple days tracking or watching animals before you shoot.
This is the first episode I had seen on the outdoorsman channel, and I instantly fell in love with the show.
I'm so late to finding this show. Yet I'm so happy 😊.
I don't binge watch often, but I am now!
THANK YOU FOR POSTING!!!! Man I have been wanting to find the old Meat Eater’s forever!
Meateater must have bought the rights back to the old seasons. Can’t wait to watch these!
How hasn’t this man have 1 million subscribers yet
If they continue uploading these contents regularly they'll be having a million sub by the end of Season 1 easily.
