I can tell you aren’t very bright, Mr. Riddell.
Steve, Remi, Cal, Yannis and others on this show have helped to change my life! I didn't grow up a hunter but my son and I have spent the last two seasons hunting together and there's nothing like it. These guys have inspired me. I spent this last week skinning, quartering and butchering my own deer. I have a working knowledge of the animal and how to use it. It's an awesome feeling. Getting ready to make a whole smoked venison ham for my family this Christmas 🎄! Thank you Steve, please keep doing what you do man 👍

This is so awesome. About a year ago I start watching the show on netflix and I was thinking, huh, i wonder why they only have seasons 5 6 and 7 on here? So glad you guys are uploading the previous seasons. Thank you.

The math says that in 5 years, there is 90% chance you never draw the tag, but that means there is 10% chance that you draw a tag at least once in 5 years. That's rough, but not impossible. Just for fun, there is a 55% chance that you strikeout 30 years in a row! Ouch!
Love these episodes. Really makes you want to be there. Instead of being stuck in a Japanese business office all day.../cry
Steven rinella is a role model he is one of my idols I love this show
Paul seems like a real great guy to have on a hunt, would love to see an episode with more of him.
NZ crew checking in again
Going back in time...watching it begin to tumble down, I had the same feeling again saying "please stop"...😆
One of my favorite shows of all time. Beautifully orchestrated!
I pray I can get my life situation in order so I can do things like this. Especially since this is my home state. Informative and insightful also highly inspirational. Thanks Steve and crew.
I am not a hunter but I am obsessed with this show because of Steve’s passion and character.
Glad to see steve shoulder mounting a beauty like that! Wish I could see the final mount
I absolutely envy you. The ability to walk and shoot as far as you do , and the availability to be able to do it. Best hunting show ever. Hands down.
Rinella is such a respectful and knowledgable dude. If you hate all hunters you should take the time to listen to Steve and observe how ethical he is. I personally have never hunted but I have so much admiration for what he does and the way he does it.
Love rewatching these older episodes 👍🏼
I just drew this tag 🏷 I’m so blessed
Hey i don't know if you respond but i love ur show. I am 12 years old and started hunting this year(got a bit of a late start) i absolutely love it. Thank you for motivating me to get my license!

A late start WHAT? 12 years old and a late START HUH? I was 18 ish when I started hunting. Congratulations on starting to hunt I hope you have extreme luck. One thing I wish I did when I started hunting was doing a daily journal of all my hunts successful or unsuccessful. Shoot straight hunt ethically and have fun and be safe.

Crazy how the camera man is literally two or three places at once, 10/10
Coming back to rewatch every episode
Thanks for this awesome footage. I always enjoy it when you cook your catch. Nothing but respect for you and how much you value and respect the outdoors.
That Dall sheep is well and truly tenderised
Such a beautiful animal. Congrats to Steve. Must have felt great
around 2 days ago I randomly looked up a vid for quartering a deer as background noise while I play a chill game (Medieval Dynasty) and was roped into the channel by how humble and sincere - coupled with how informative and useful and hi-quality - that vid was. Now I'm hooked. Netflix or KZread, I'm watching all this channel's vids. Makes me wish I lived someplace where hunting wild game was a thing; I would've loved to be tutored (and humbled) by these guys and gals.
Thank you guys so much for posting all of these episodes! I have only been able to see the episodes they are on Netflix so I really appreciate being able to watch these early episodes now. It's interesting to see how Steve and the show have evolved over the years. I started at episode one and am working my way forward.

I keep watching these over and over. Great content. Ordered the new audiobook, can't wait to start it.
Thank you Steve and the whole crew at meateater and your production crew your content is amazing got out this year and got me a nice whitetail heard you guys in the back of my head the whole hunt 🙏
I’m not a hunter yet but I love this show. I glass the meat section from dairy when I go to the grocery store now.

I used to live in Virginia so I know the topography. Honestly hunting in Alaska even for a resident is such a logistical endeavor that I find myself missing just being able to go in the woods n hour from the house and hauling a whitetail or a turkey out by myself. That’s why I’ve been chasing bears just above Anchorage lately, don’t have to travel so far that I feel an overnight is required.

Fantastic achievement Steve . I could not do a hunt like that due to severe osteoporosis. But you made it feel like we were part of it. Well done .
What an incredible hunt, you guys! Well done!

Damn nice shot, and what a memory. That was a well done episode. Add more of the "in-camp" meals and comradery though.
Wondering if I'm the only pescatarian that loves this show.
I will prolly never get the chance to go big game hunting in my life time, but I tell you it is something amazing to watch from kill to cook.

Nice work, and looked like a tasty meal, but I gotta say, it broke my heart to see them broken up like that.
