I actually enjoyed the fact that you didn't show us this deer. Made it super fun. Good on you for being a great outdoorsman and keeping a solid friendship while enjoying the chase!

Jared's integrity and professionalism is second to none. There's nothing I didn't like about this video and how well the story was told.

Well said, Congrats to his buddy. Also with all the success Jarod has had. I'm kinda glad this guy got it instead of him. I would think it will have much more meaning to him than Jarod. Nothing against Jarod, he is probably one of the most successful hunters in the game. His whole demeaner is unsurpassed.

@@scottb6098 have you seen his creek bottom battle with George Brett....Jared is a great hunter and sportsman

I’ve watched 1000s of hunting videos over the years. I have never been on the edge of my seat with anticipation like I have been over the past weeks following this great story. I swear on this final video my heart was racing as if I was right there with you Jared. For an Alabama boy who only gets to hunt the Midwest for 1 week per year, I follow all of you Midwest Whitetail guys daily, wishing I could be there more. Thanks to Jared and Bill for sharing this and all of the exciting pursuits of trophy bucks! You guys are my favorite group of hunters in the business! And not just watching as a fan, but learning a ton from every MW hunter. Awesome!

Jared you are truly a first class woodsman!! Most people that even get the opportunity to hunt a deer like that never even see them in person, you had multiple encounters and one was within bow range. Really proves once again your level of woodsmanship but nothing is more important than your integrity and you made sure it staid at the top!! Great job and so proud for your buddy. He truly killed a buck of a lifetime! Thanks for the awesome story we got to tag along and watch unfold

Just so we are clear.... This is the best whitetail deer hunter in North America! Great work, Jared!

The best video so far this year. Is this not what hunting is about? Sure we want the big deer but we love it just as much when a friend or family member gets that harvest. Thank you for a great journey.

Great story ! Followed the whole way. We finally got to see him. Thanks man for sharing your adventures

Hate that you didn't get him but you're a class act Jared. You guys have integrity and character and that says a lot about y'all. Keep after it. The good Lord will bless you in his own way.

That’s true sportsmanship! A lot of friendships do get ruined from hunting. What a magnificent buck!

Best reality show I've ever watched EVER. Unbelievable how close you came to connecting. Great sportsmanship to share info on his whereabouts to your buddy, I wouldn't have shared anything, and I have very close buddies I grew up with and hunted with all my life. You're a better man than me. lol. What a giant deer. I love the fact you didn't edit out any of the audio where you were shaking and breathing hard so we can feel your emotions too. What a story. Thanks for sharing.

100% true sportsmanship and ethical decisions made in this "journey." Your both winners and this was a success for both of you. I totally respect and appreciate you sharing this "journey" with us. Thank you!

The case is one of the funnest parts of hunting a big deer when you look back! Love to see the respect and passion u put into the case! Awesome video!! Class Act!

Great story Jarod. I appreciate all the content and professionalism you bring to the Midwestwhitetail show. Thanks for bringing us along and the close out on this deer.

Wow! What a magnificent animal! Just having the chance to hunt him has got to be such a privilege. Thank you for sharing the story with us. I would never have believed I could be so into a deer I had never seen. Great job by you, Grant, and all involved at Midwest Whitetail for telling such a compelling story.

Wow. What a deer. What a story. Thanks for taking the time to share with us. Appreciated!!

Congrats to your buddy Jared and to your true sportsmanship. Thanks for keeping your promise, your a true and honest person.

Some of the coolest footage I’ve ever seen! I am entertained!!!! Enjoy the memories of the journey bro! Thanks for all the years of great content and stories.

WOW. What an epic saga told masterfully. Hard to put in to words how much I respect Jared in this process, and the friend too. You guys just keep outdoing yourselves.

Man I’ve been waiting to final hear this story!! The exact same thing happen with my best friend, he ended up getting the monster and I was right there to help and was happy as hell for my friend!! Amazing story!!

Amazing story Jared! Loved following your adventures on hunting this truly spectacular deer. Congrats to your friend on his hunt and making a great shot and to be able to watch it go down was so exciting. Thanks for being so humble, and showing everyone who watches your video's how to be a true sportsman! Keep up the great video's and there's another giant out there waiting for you!!

Such a killer story! And the footage/editing? On. Point. Heckuva attitude about it all as well. You represent us well!

Hey Jared sorry you didn't get to wrap your tag around that buck that would have been awesome!! Pretty sweet though that you made a good friend in the process of hunting this buck and your able to share some joy in the fact that he got the deer the right way!! Keep hunting hard man best of luck the rest of your season!! Can't wait to see what your able to get after!!

I really appreciated this story! Thank you for sharing and the amazing recap! I cannot believe your buddy was able to self film that shot!! That dudes a stud as well

Awesome story Jared!! I really enjoyed following each hunt you had for that beast!

What a ride!!! Thanks for takin us with!

That is one impressive buck, the mass is incredible. Great video

Incredible footage. What an adventure and chess match. I couldn’t wait to see this story. Grant has been telling so much about this buck. Great job guys. Congrats to your buddy Jared. I admire your sportsmanship.

All I can say is wow!! And Jared you are a class act and what a true friend should be. Like you said a big deer can create a lot of jealously and friendships can be lost over them. Way to be happy for your buddy. I would love to hunt with you some day because you are the man. I was hoping you would get him but congrats to your buddy.

That's awesome man! What's even more awesome is that your buddy got the hunt on film!

Love your stories and my favorite hunting personality. One hell of a hunter

I'm not a hunter but the story and video were amazing. I subscribed to your blog and I'm hooked. Thanks Jared

Awesome video man...when i seen this video pop up i knew you tagged him...then i realized someone else did and they way you acted is incredible...your a true hunter

Congratulations to your buddy and glad he got it on camera. You’re a class act for the way this all played out. That deer was a stud and I can definitely understand your hesitation for not showing him. Once again some awesome footage laid down by grant. Y’all are a great team and will definitely be laying down some big bucks in the future

Congrats to your buddy! Buck of a lifetime! Grant is kicking butt for you guys on the camera! Keep up the good work!

That was one amazing story ! Kudos to both of you .

Fantastic story Jared, and great buck!

Man heck of a story Jared! Enjoyed seeing the journey, keep up the hard work bud.

Wow what an incredible legacy that deer lived. He's a grand legend. It was sad yet awesome to watch him tumble. Congrats to your buddy and its awesome you got a chance to hunt a deer like that.

That’s simply amazing...and I can relate to your feeling of hunting a good deer on small property but idk how u were not shaking with that close of an encounter I was shaking n I’m in ny!! Great vid glad to see you still have a friend after this 👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻

That is a great video. I was on my toes the whole time. I’ve been anticipating this video since you talked about it. Sad to see you didn’t shoot that buck, but that’s why it’s hunting. Keep up the hunts and videos. Maybe this opens a door for an even bigger buck

Awesome story, as you said you learned a lot, and I did too as I followed along. Congrats to your buddy.

I am speechless Jared! 😶 That’s a TANK of a BUCK! So so so so close! I wished that you were able to wrap your hands around that buck man! My brother and I keep up with you and Mike everyday and what a season you two are having! I hope to be like you two. I’m starting to get into archery. I’m learning as much as I can. Thank you for an exciting season so far!! Good luck and looking to see more hunts from you two!

Great Story, video, and a great Buck! Congrats to your friend. That Buck, when he was 10 yards from you, looked like he was 8 ft tall LOL You, are a true Sportsman Jared, and we appreciate you, taking us along, on your adventures. ......Mark from N.C.

Awesome story and video

Epic...you are a rmf profession G! Thanks for the awesome story telling and video. Broke my heart you didn’t get him but Congrats to your friend.

I saw this deer on trophy bucks of Iowa the other day. Never thought it was the deer Jared was hunting. Great story on an amazing animal!

Phenomenal job Jared! You and your camera man captured it perfectly!

Wow what a story on a magnificent deer!! One thing is for sure both you guys were true sportsmen through the journey of taking that stud of a deer! Congratulations to the guy that was lucky enough to take him! I have to say though I really hate it wasnt you but none the less that guy deserves him too!! Great work from the Midwest Team! Best of luck rest of the season Jared!

Awesome story thank you for sharing that Jared...✌🏽

Wow, what a legend of a buck. Sucks that you didn’t get him after all the time and work, but congrats to your buddy. Fantastic series of encounters, and some great footage. Good luck the rest of the season!👍🏻

That’s tough to swallow but the great sportsmanship makes up for it.

Wow, that was very inspiring!!! You will definitely be blessed, good job!! And congratulations to your friend!!

Just last week I commented on Mike's 200" episode that it was the best episode of the season. I still think that's true, but this episode is definitely tied. Great sportsmanship and great hunting. Congrats to your friend.

I'm literally deer hunting right now. But when notification hits about this deer. I gotta watch!! Edit: at the end now. And that sux you didn't get it. But awesome story

Awesome deer but more importantly awesome outlook and perspective on how you dealt with your friend getting it instead of you. True outdoorsman

Been waiting to see this !

Great job, great story

Great story Jared, even though you didn't get the buck, you'll cherish the experience forever.

Great video and you're right, it's nice to see the buck taken the right way, at 20 yards with a nice ethical shot...

What an awesome story and to have a friend end up with him makes it a great ending, but even better yet the buck was still taken with a bow, So glad to see that and not just a gun hunter who hunts one day a year and gets a giant like that! Congrats to both guys for being able to have encounters with a true giant and to get it done with a bow!

Wow just a giant, what a deer. Congrats to your friend and like I said before to you, what a class act on your part Jared. Would love to shake your hand man. Great way on how to show the public the class and sportsmanship of our great sport that we’re able to do. God Bless you and God Bless all the other hunters out there putting in the time and hard work. Good Luck 🍀 -Christopher

WOW man that was a STUD!!! Your channel was recommended to me by another and this video did not disappoint new follower here from NY. The Journey was incredible and really even better the kill shot was captured what memories to last a lifetime well done with this production, look forward to reviewing your channel guys.

Well done Jared. I was skeptical about your unusual approach to this story telling. I was starting to wonder if this was going to be one of those story's that end with no one but you and your friends actually seeing the main character in the story. I appreciate you giving us the conclusion with the 'reverse narrative' approach. It made it interesting Now before we all get to feeling bad for you, I want to remind the viewers, you already arrowed a BRUISER this season! Your season has been successful by any measure of the standard applied. You've earned a subscriber and I look forward to your upcoming adventures.

Great job..absolutely in every way..the best to all of you..true professionals..

Chad took a great buck! Congrats to both of ya for hunting hard!

That's a BEAUTY buck! glad you guys could do it and still be friends, but i was hoping you got him Jared.

Well not the ending we all wanted to see. But I commend you for your sportsmanship in the whole deal. Congrats to your buddy in harvesting a buck of a lifetime.

Wow Jared what a story definitely sportsman of the year and you really had some awesome encounters with that giant, unbelievable story sure it could’ve gone either way but it went the way it was suppose to. You handle yourself in such an inspirational way and I believe you will see the blessings behind this due to the fact that you show the people what it truly means to be the light By how you treat others I also believe this story will reach many and inspire them in their lives on how handling their situations that way will lead to blessings in their life, what a great story. Jared keep after it and as always stay safe out there😎

What a great story. So glad one of y’all got him. And like I have said before I have the upmost respect for this story and the way you handle it Jared. But the encounter #3 was amazing I would have fell out when he came in that close. The mass and the body on him was a hoss. Hope you get to finish out your season on a giant also. I get to take my 6 year old out tomorrow evening on a youth hunt he has already said he wants to shoot this big nine we been getting pics of. It is so gratifying to see him love the outdoors.

Great video. I thought you had him from the ground. Maybe a ghillie too or even a hat would help in that situation. What a buck. Congratulations to your neighbor. Just happened to cruise by him.

Not many folks I can look up to and call a role model at 25 years old, but this fella is the epitome of a sportsman. Patience and persistence is what I learn from him every single time no matter what. Being happy for a fellow hunter even after hunting so hard for a brute of a deer and smiling and congratulating his buddy when he killed him. Absolute class as usual from an awesome whitetail hunter one of the best to do it, good luck for the rest of the season Jared!!

Great story Jared, can't believe you almost had him at 10 yards!

I had a similar experience this season in Kansas. The first day I didn’t hunt the farm the buck was spotted 30 yds from my ground blind by the farmer. Fortunately he’s still alive as far as I know of. Maybe next year.

awesome story

Beautiful buck

Man what a season! Sorry it didn't end with you putting your tag on him. Pretty sweet footage and encounters. Don't worry you will be chasing another giant soon lol

Have to commend you on your positiveness.

I’m 6 min in and on the edge of me seat! Gotta tend to the boys I know what I’m watching b4 bed!👍

Amazing! Bro what type of scent control were you using? That was insane!! Great footage! Subscribed!

What a stud! Congrats to your buddy!

Great story there will be more Jared👍🏹🦌

You're no slouch. I'd trade that picture of you being within 5 yards of that buck any day. Great story.

Incredible video and quality. Did they end up scoring the deer?

Excellent video. Thanks for sharing it with us. Would you like to fill us in on what kind of grass that was.

Wow that deer was a giant, congratulations to your buddy on an amazing animal.

Wow that Buck knew all the tricks except the last one. Hes Awesome

Jared, great story...did u have prior history on this buck, or just this year, what a giant!

Far better story this way than if you had told us along the way. Reputation counts more than antler score.

This was incredible to watch. I love the show for these exact episodes. I apologize if someone already asked it but what did the buck gross score? I assume over 210”?

Great story and video, what did the deer end up gross scoring?

I bet your heart was just about to jump out of your chest when he got so close, lol. Very cool video

Nice Deer, hard to believe that deer was so daylight active.

Wow Jared, you are a true sportsman!! I like guys like you that will congratulate somebody after shooting a deer that you’ve been hunting. I hope you get a chance at another good one!! Good luck!!!

Wow man... Just wow..
