I'm about halfway though this season, some good stuff (if you have netflix). The Dall sheep hunt is my favorite so far (cool scenery, love the background music), and there are 2 episodes on Sika Deer hunting that are cool. In the Sika episodes, they start with archery and then go muzzleloader. Didn't know Sika deer hunting is so interactive. @redsquirrel @swampsnyper

There is also a good episode devoted to deer butchering; filled a doe tag this weekend so very timely for me. :)

It can be very interactive, they are very vocal. I'm not an expert with my calls so I try to focus mostly on good woodsmanship. I am pretty sure I called my stag in this year though. I buggled and he showed up about 10 minutes later to check things out.
 
Haven't had a chance to watch yet, hopefully the next few days. Always enjoy the show.
 
That show is probably one of the top reasons I got back into hunting after a 30 year lay off. I will always have a special place in my heart for that team. From there, returning to hunting has encouraged me to lose over 120 pounds and get into the best shape of my life just before I turn 50.
 
Steve Rinella played a major role in introducing me to hunting thru his podcast and other ones like it. I binge watched the entire season the other night. Probably could have paid closer attention but I was busy messing with my new thread injector.
 
Big fan here too. It' refreshing to have a hunting show that isn't just trying to push as many products as they can in a 30 minute window and then just showing a shot and a recovery.

I just watched those 2 sika episodes, man that was great!!!! Really love his production, does a great job honoring the game we hunt!
 
Top notch dudes with a top notch show. I'm through 4 episodes so far. The MD ones of course hit home for me so I loved watching them. Their episodes never disappoint no matter where they are or what they're after.
 
Just watched the sika hunts. It was nothing like our experience. Lol. We wouldn’t get away with knee boots, trees to climb the size of a telephone pole, can see animals past 50 yards, etc.
We obviously was doing something wrong! Lol
