Hey guys. Thank y’all so much for the support everyone is awsome in life,that was a biggin
Antler Squad congratulations Anthony! Nice Bull and fantastic shot placement!!
No sir thank you!!
Congratulations!
Anthony congrats on the bull! That was a perfect shot! This was awesome to see you be successful. We’re all praying for your future success as well.
I usually don’t get teary eyes watching elk hunting videos but this was epic.
Donnie and everybody involved earned your angel wings today. God bless
Never thought I’d shed a tear watching an elk hunt on RUclips
"I'm sorry buddy!" The day I, or any responsible hunter, no longer has that bittersweet emotion and respect and gratitude in the taking of our quarries life, regardless of the species, is the day we should quit hunting! Thanks guys and great shooting Anthony!👊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Amen to that, I agree 100%.
I agree ,they deserve our respect and gratitude
Oh man the emotion I felt when he was hugging everybody I even got teary-eyed what an awesome thing you guys do thank you so much for sharing this hunt
Its a great thing you do. My Daughter was diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor at the age of 15 with chemo she was able to fend it off long enough for technology to catch up and the tumor was removed at the age of 18. She's now turning 21 and still going strong. Through it all we meet a lot of great people like your self. Thank you for all you do.
Very happy to hear that she overcame it and is thriving! I have a brother battling a brain tumor and he has had multiple surgeries on it. He is a fighter though! God bless.
I sit here as a 39 year old man crying like a baby! You guys are absolutely amazing individuals!!! God bless you and your crew who make dreams come true. I love watching your episodes, allowing me to get in touch with my sappy emotional side. Keep up the amazing hunts! Great job Anthony!!!!
This is what it is all about showing Anthony love and kindness to get it done. Made me get blurry eyes watching and was very proud to know there are programs like this for the kids. God Bless all that contributed to this dream come true.
These “ Hunt of a Lifetime “ episodes are absolutely the best ever!!!!!! Bring tears to my eyes!!! Thanks to you guys to helping make this happen for these young folks!!
The amount of respect that young man showed everyone and the elk was amazing. Prayers for his continued health. And a tip of the hat to Corey and Donnie for what they did for Anthony.
You can tell from all the hugs that Anthony gave, that the big men were emotionally struck by all that transpired. Thank you to all the Elk 101 team. You guys are awesome.
I just cried my eyes out. So excited for you Anthony perfect shot. Way to be patient and learn. To all you at 101 congrats this is where it all begins and lives become changed. Memories fulfilled. Bless you all.
I ran out of Kleenex when Anthony went around and hugged everyone after he shot his elk. Wow! What a hunt. That was awesome! Thanks guys!
I’m man enough to admit I cried. Such a moment for that Dad and all of the folks involved!!! Perfect!
Talk about emotional. That’s what it’s all about. Don’t have to be the biggest animal on the mountain. Good job everyone. Made that little man smile!!👍
I'm not crying, you're crying. 😭😭😭😭 What an amazing kid! ❤
all the guy,s around him as will you are all stand up men .
Best episode yet! Really was a tear jerker at the end when his dad hugged him.
Who’s cutting onions in here? Best hunt of the season guys.
If that doesn't put tears in your eyes nothing will. Amazing respect, story, and film. That puts everything we do in the elk woods in perspective. Thank you guys.
Definitely an emotional moment. Thank you guys for what you do. The memory of that trip will last a lifetime for Anthony
The emotion was strong here in my house! Can’t imagine what it was like out on the hill!! Super proud of Anthony! He showed great love and respect for the hunt and for the animal!! Job well done!
I really enjoyed the relationship that developed between Donny and Anthony really special
I agree. You could totally see it.
Wow just watched the video and I could hardly hold back the tears. Congrats to ANTHONY on an awesome hunt! What an experience, I can’t hardly wait till my boy is old enough and I’m pretty after watching this hunt I’m gonna be a wreck! Again congrats ANTHONY to a great hunt with some great guys!
Anthony, It's not the kill that makes the hunt, it's the the hunt that makes the kill. I'm so proud of you, you got a GREAT bull. AWESOME job young man, always wishing you the best
Captain Greg
WOW. Tears again. You guys rock. That makes the whole season for everyone.
Congrats to Anthony.
Donnie. Keep hunching.
I'm not one to get too emotional but that one hit me right in the feels. It's a good reminder of what hunting really is about and it serves as a reminder/calling to share with others who may not be as fortunate as we are. Not necessarily just in regards to hunting but for every day life. Thanks again for producing such an awesome series!
we as hunters, but majority of us has forgotten what it means to respect the quarries and then a young man, pure hearted and innocent like anthony, to come along and teach us how it's suppose to be as hunter?!! much respect to you anthony, you gave us a truly meaningful and a great lesson learned from you young man, god bless you and continue to watch and protect you.
Words can not express the feelings felt while watching a young man take his first bull elk. The support of every person who took time out of their own personal life’s to fulfill the dreams of a young man. My hat is off to Corey, Donnie and Tylor who selflessly paid it forward.
The emotions after the shot with Father and son and friends. PRICELESS !!!
I'm not crying. It's just been raining on my face.
You guys are truly amazing for giving your time to such a great cause. Not a dry eye watching the final moments of this episode! Thank you for making us hunters more human.
I was praying and coaching from my phone every step of the way for this young man. My girls and I have tentatively been following this young mans quest! CONGRATULATIONS bud!!!
Teared up a bit when Corey threw Anthony on his back just trying to cover some ground! Way to be
This had me teared up as well. Great job Anthony and to all involved
Just when I think I can’t get anymore invested in this hunt as if I’m right along side y’all....you capture the pure raw emotion of not only this young mans but that of his father and the rest of the crew after the shot. I was flooded with emotions of being alongside of my boys when they took there first deer and I couldn’t help but to embrace those emotions and moments again.
Thank each and every one of you involved in this hunt. God bless y’all and I can’t wait until next year and watching another child live the dream.
What a real experience to be able to watch and feel all that goes with a hunt from beginning to end! Had my first hunt flood to my mind. And the memories of my Dad and Grandpa having tears right along with me forty years ago. We were taught to respect and thank each and every animal harvested. Thank you for you for giving this experience to others. And Anthony great shot buddy! So proud of you!
Pass it on brothers God bless the hunters that give back
Love the respect he has for the the animal at such a young age. Congrats Anthony, you are a great dude!
I have been blessed to have taken out many first time youth hunts and been a part of their first kill and I always allow them to consider how they feel as I think it's important for them to understand that it is OK and a good thing to not feel good about taking a life, it's showing proper respect for what has happened and knowing that they are feeding their family and others often as well. It is proper conservation done right! He is a great young man!!! Giving everyone all those hugs broke me and my wife, so amazing. So very proud of all of you and especially Anthony and all the individuals giving of their time to do this!! Thank you all. Amen!
Anthony, you are an unbelievable young man!!!
Congratulations on a beautiful animal and thank you to everyone that helped make Anthony’s dream come true.
YOU ARE ALL AMAZING HUMANS!!!
made me cry, and do really see the respect he and all of you show to one another and the quarry. very great representation of how and why we hunt, thank you
I like how everyone was there to share in the moment with Anthony!
At barely twelve years old Anthony has more respect for life and the life of that elk than most kids and adults. This hunt and others like it remind us how precious life is. Glad you guys do this each year and allow the rest of us to be a part of something very, very special. Thank you.
As I wipe tears from my eyes I realize how precious life is! Great job to everyone involved, and especially for letting us(the viewers) experience an amazing kid like Anthony! Great job kid!
By far my favorite episode every year! The elation that everyone shows is genuine! Congrats to Anthony! Well done young man!
Dad to a dad... I’m crying right now. Holly cow great job to everyone.
That was unbelievable! Great attitude, great shot, great family and friends! Well done everyone. Excuse me while I find more tissues! Unreal.
Congrats Anthony. That one will look good on your wall. The memories will stick with all of us for a long time. Thanks Cory and Donnie for a great season. Watching you guys got me 1 month closer to next season and hopefully i can take the knowledge you have given me and fill my first elk tag.
That was a great hunt, Anthony is a special young man and a great hunter!
Seeing his reaction brought tears to my eyes. The spread on that bull was as wide as Anthony was tall. That was awesome guys. Y'all truly get to live my dream. Great job guys really great job

Anthony seems so grateful! I love that he went around and gave hugs to everyone involved. He’s full of love. Great hunt! Thanks for sharing!
You guys are so blessed to be able to do this for these kids. Thank you for giving them the chance to have the experience. Thank you so very much. ❤
Thank all of you guys for doing the hunt of a lifetime!!! Truly amazing!!! Favorite hunt of every season. Thank you
Yea I want him made my hearts so full. I can't stop crying!!
That shot was spot on .
Congratulations to you all for such an amazing program and hunt!!
Hugs all around, love how much this means to Donnie.
There were three moments in Anthony's hunt that really did it for me, the first was the prayer that Corey offered, second was when Corey carried Anthony on his back up the road and third was the emotion shown by all when Anthony sealed the deal. Thank you for ending your series on such a high note!
Seeing Anthony harvest this elk and him hugging everyone being so happy and thankful for this hunt is so heartwarming
These are my favorite hunts to watch, I hope to be involved in something like this someday.
I’m on E.S.T. This was a long wait! The wife and daughter have the Kleenex on standby💯
That is the best hunt I have ever seen, those cherished moments are so special. Fantastic bull and great shot, we are all so blessed to be able to hunt these magnificent animals and be able to share these moments with others around us. Corry and Donnie you both are a absolute pleasure to watch, thank you for putting this series together and for sharing it with all of us as. Anthony that was a honor to be able to see your hunt and how beautiful your bull was and the smile on your face afterwards and to see you be able to share that experience with all those around you, well done young man.
It was a two kleenex, box, hunt. Thank you so much Team elk 101 for making such great opportunities for these young hunters. There are not words to describe how much good you do.
The hunt of a lifetime are some of my favorites with a doubt
"I'm sorry buddy." I thought you were just joking about getting some Kleenex's. Awesome shot bro!👍
WOW!!! What a wonderful experience for Anthony and i was nervous for him. After the shot let the tears start flowing as i can feel the emotion of the hunt. The entire group was wonderful and Anthony's respect for the elk is amazing for a kid of his age.
Awesome job guys!!!
Great hunt. And to the folks at Elk101 you guys are first class all the way. Congrats to Anthony and his 6 point. And the amount of thanks given by him after the hunt giving all hugs. What a great time watching these hunts.
Amazing finish. Incredible kid. “Sorry buddy”- lesson for us all.
“I’m sorry buddy” I’m not crying, you’re crying
Guys y’all warm my heart. As a father of a young son with medical issues and special needs I truly thank you for what you do. This was by far my favorite hunt video I have seen. Donnie you impress me. You were calm and supportive in that moment and ensured you kept the stress out of it. Thank you all for what you do.
Anthony, hell of a shot bud!! Congrats!!
This is what its all about, this young man will never ever forget this hunt!
Such a great moment seeing Anthony give everyone a hug! Great episode and great hunt! Loved this years series!!
Such a heart warming episode we loved every minute.
My wife and I are volunteers for our local RMEF chapter and are active in supporting as much as we can around the hunting and conservation community. After watching the Hunt of a Lifetime episodes, we feel compelled to find whatever program we have local, if one exists, to help contribute to causes like the Hunt of a Lifetime. In situations like this, it feels like there is never enough that you can do to provide people with the opportunities to experience once, what some of us are fortunate to experience regularly throughout our lives. This work is absolutely motivating and is far and above more rewarding to watch than any other content we have found. Keep doing what you're doing, you have our unlimited support and we hope to someday be able to provide for others what you have selflessly adopted as part of your lives and your mission. Absolutely outstanding, thank you.
I’m not crying, you’re crying.... What an absolute epic finish to the 3 episodes of the hunt of a lifetime. Anthony has the heart of a true elk hunter. You couldn’t ask for a better setup and presentation to experience your first elk harvest. Props for all that were involved with making this kids dream come true, no doubt Anthony will never forget it, but for all that were there to witness it, I’m sure that joy is life changing.
Dang you guys. I can't keep the tears out of my eyes. That smile cuts me to my heart. This is the first time I've ever cried watch a hunting video. Killer shot young man! 👍💪
That makes two of us.
That so amazing congratulations to your young hunter and mostly everyone that was involved. And for sharing this truly amazing adventure with us. And most importantly thank you so much for a great season guys. Would love for you guys to tag along with me up here in the panhandle of Idaho.
Amazing episode guys. So happy for Anthony. Great kid. Hats off to all that helped out to make his hunt of a lifetime.
I never cried on any of my own hunts. But, this one got me really choked up. Congrats on a great bull!
After-the-shot emotions are running HIGH! Gotta admit I shed a tear in each eye. One of the best hunting series I've watched to date. I love helping new hunters and kids harvest their first big game animal - it's beyond rewarding to see the smile and be a part of. Great job! - Scott Schwab
Perfect shot Anthony. This is making me want to cry. heart warming.
Great hunt for the young guy to get such an amazing animal at his age. awesome. And a bonus for Sig Sauer to do what they did sending the weapon out for the kid to use to take that elk. I've been a Sig Sauer fanatic my whole life, and they make the finest weapons on the planet. I'll be following y'all on here, maybe someday I could hunt with y'all on an elk hunt.
While there’s so much to glean out of each episode, the team’s give back & dedication to support young individuals like Anthony is priceless. Best part of the annual series.
That’s why I love this show/Series. And this sport. ❤️
I've been waiting for this hunt to air since I had the privilege of meeting Anthony and his father after the hunt.
From the piggy back ride, to the conversation between Donnie and Anthony when the bull was coming in, to the reactions of all involved, that was awesome! Watching a group of grown men gathered with the goal of leading a special young man to his first bull harvest was amazing to watch again. Well done to all involved! And I will continue to pray for Anthony that he will experience God's healing power! Great season!
Every year this is the hunt I look forward to most. So moving. Thanks for sharing !
I cried like a baby watching this
My favorite hunt for this year by far. Anthony was very respectful and had a great attitude. Great episode guys!
So refreshing to see a 12 year old young man respect the life of an elk he just harvested by saying "I'm sorry buddy". My wife and I are so happy for you and thankful you got your big bull..Excellent shooting buddy!! Anthony, the gratitude you showed to each crew member directly after the hunt was truly touching. And Donny, the way you coached this young man was just plain cool! Thank You Elk 101 Team for the fantastic hunting experience you gave to us and the rest of your fans this season! God Bless each of you.
That first embrace between father and son after the shot was priceless! Add the round of hugs and smiles; wow what a moment! It's an amazing thing you're a part of with the hunt of a lifetime. Tug on the heart strings for sure.
I somehow knew that was the one not the biggest maybe but the “one” !
Can't wait to see that smile on his face.
Outstanding for Anthony getting a bull. God Bless all of you for helping him. Thank you for the great footage of this hunt. What a great shot he made, so happy for him and his grandpa. What an excellent job you all did helping him. Thanks
Talk about bringing tears to your eyes! To see Anthony and Micah sharing that moment together just softened my heart.
Donnie, you and Cory are the kind of men I admire most.
DEDICATION ! Eight grown men Devoted to one Boy’s Dream !!!!
THANK YOU !!!
Corey, do you have to give Donnie piggy back rides on other hunts like you did for Anthony?
May God bless this young man with a long life full of many more successful hunts. Thank you for sharing this epic experience. BTW. Big boys do cry sometimes. 👍
when Anthony shoots that bull everyone felt that in their heart It was well deserved
Awesome job Anthony!! Great job to everyone involved 👍
Absolutely the best kind of hunting, ever. Taking a kid out, to pass the baton to the next generation. Good job Anthony. You got some very cool man friends.
Doesn't get any better than that. Anyone who watches this has to be filled with emotion. Can't imagine being there in that moment with micah "gramps" and anthony. An awesome kid who deserves more than just the hunt of a lifetime. Again, awesome what you guys do for these kids every year. Thanks for an awesome series!
