Hunting brings profound moments. None more than th Hunting brings profound moments. None more than this. @_mi.kee taking a moment with her first buck. Miki has been dedicated to becoming a hunter. Learning, practicing, and most importantly, getting out there. A great spot, a perfect stalk, and a precise shot. Congrats Miki! Thanks for taking me along and sharing this moment with me. #firstbuck #eatwild #learntohunt #spotandstalk #muledeer #backpackhunting
Big smiles after a big day! After a double header Big smiles after a big day! After a double header mule deer morning this crew packed 350 lbs of meat and gear 4 kms up and over the mountain and back to camp. I was opting for two trips, but the crew was game to try to do the whole load in one shot. Average pack weight was 78 lbs for these three. So I was the wimp with only packing 55% of my body weight. @_mi.kee packed 74% of her body weight. @guajirafromtheblock packed 77 lbs in a frameless day pack. Zsana ran up the hill loaded in a pack with a string for a hip belt. One tough crew. #impressive #eatwild #womenhunters

Are you going deer hunting? Yes, then this is esse Are you going deer hunting? Yes, then this is essential listening! We are hanging out in the wall tent talking mule deer hunting around the fire. I’m joined by my hunting mentor Geoffrey Horsfield, and my pals Jenny P and Scott Donker after a successful hunt in the grassland country in British Columbia. We are quizzing Geoff on his mule deer hunting techniques. We talk about spot and stock, still hunting timber and other tips for successful mule deer hunting. This is one of the more fun episodes that we’ve recorded. I’ve been holding onto it and since last year to share with you during hunting season. Hopefully, you’ll learn something and have a bit of fun too. Geoff has over 50 years of experience hunting, adventuring in B.C., has a wealth of knowledge and is a great storyteller. #eatwild #howtohunt #learntohunt #muledeerhunting #deerhunting #bchunting @jennyp403 @aven.cronker
Join us tonight for our Still Hunting for Deer web Join us tonight for our Still Hunting for Deer webinar. I use these techniques in most hunting applications including elk and moose, or whenever I am sneaking through timber and want to get a look at an animal before it sees me. Join us and get ready for the deer hunting season! October 5th at 7 pm PST. Register at EatWild.ca or link in my bio. Webinar overview: Still hunting is a fundamental technique to being a successful deer hunter. It is also an essential tool for most other hunting pursuits. My hunting mentors taught me how to still hunt whitetail deer in the timber when I was a kid. Still hunting is the act of slowly, carefully, and quietly sneaking through the timber and seeing game before it reacts to you. I got really good at it as a kid and I have been able to get up whitetail deer and other critters for success ever since. Mastering the art of still hunting will make you a better hunter. In this webinar, I will share my philosophy, technique, and stories of success and failures in still hunting. This webinar will cover the: Picking the right terrain and timber for still hunting Learning how to sneak up an animal in the timber When to still hunt and when to cover ground Camouflage and cover techniques Animal response to seeing or hearing you Making the shot in timber Responding to weather – still hunting in snow, rain, wind, and drought Discussion on spot-and-stock vs. still hunting – what’s more productive? #deerhunting #learntohunt #meateater #howtohunt #stillhunting #stillhuntingseason #bchunting #whitetailhunting #muledeerhunting
It’s mule deer hunting season. I dragged @_mi.ke It’s mule deer hunting season. I dragged @_mi.kee up to the alpine, across the burns and down to the grasslands in search of the elusive first buck. 8 days of solid hunts and we are heading home with tags intact. Fortunately, @homesteadinghuntress and @varda_the_safety_bear joined us for a couple of nights and were able to provide a couple of mule deer hearts for camp meals. In fact, they arrived at camp at midnight, left for their hunt at 6 am, and texted us at 7:15 am that they were tagged out. Congrats on your successful and very very efficient hunt. Pretty sure Miki will be following you guys next time 😜 #learntohunt #eatwild #muledeer
Here’s the story! I set out on an elk hunting t Here’s the story! I set out on an elk hunting trip with good pals Will, Ben, Tome and Tom. Our plan was to float down the river, camp on the riverbank, and hunt elk for the week. Elk hunting was pretty slow and I was getting discouraged when things took a big turn. I was set up calling for Elk, I heard a crunch, and an unexpected critter showed up. In some parts of BC, we have an open moose season, but you can only harvest immature bulls that have 2 points or less, or mature bulls that have 3 points on their brow palm or a total of 10 points on one antler. Confusing? Absolutely! Then try and count those points while a moose popping in and out of view in the willows and thick timber. In this episode, I talk about counting points in the field and building the confidence to pull the trigger. And the stress of the whole ordeal. So happy to be back a camp with the boys while the moose is hanging from the meat pole. Enjoy! @varda_the_safety_bear @tome_jozic @benrogersmusic @tkpatchell #eatwild #huntingstories #moose #moosehunting #bchunting #huntingbc #bcmoose #learntohunt
Took advantage of this log jam on the river to han Took advantage of this log jam on the river to hang our moose for the night. Definitely not high enough for grizzlies, and will likely draw some moisture from the river, but our priority was to get the meat cool fast. The cold river and breeze will help combat the 25 + degree C daytime temps. Join us tomorrow night for our meat care webinar with our EatWild mentors. September 24th @ 7 pm pst. #hunting #meateater #learntohunt #bchunter #bchunting #moosehunting @varda_the_safety_bear @tkpatchell @kuiu_official @tome_jozic @benrogersmusic
Love these beauties. This crew packed out 600+ pou Love these beauties. This crew packed out 600+ pounds of moose meat through blowdown and head high willow and rose brush. I wasn’t much help with a broken rib from an earlier incident. My dad always insisted that we only shoot moose on the river bank that we get the boat to. I was hunting elk a ways off the river. I didn’t expect to bump into a legal bull moose. I figured that the boys would be up for the pack. Haggard and happy. More pics in my story and a podcast to come. 🙏🏽@varda_the_safety_bear @benrogersmusic @tkpatchell @tome_jozic #moosehunting #moose #eatwild #moosepack #meateater #kuiu #stoneglacierpacks #kuiupacks

About EatWild

We are a young, Vancouver-based company, so we understand the negative stereotypes which have long been paired with hunting. Over-sized pickup trucks? Road signs with bullet holes? Hick shooting jokes? We’ve heard them all. EatWild wants to be part of something new...
