I don't hunt myself, but i remember seeing my boyfriend's aunt right after her first deer kill. She was very excited and proud, but it was so obvious to me how she avoided saying the words "killed" and "dead". She only used euphemisms like "it fell asleep"
See, and I'm much more in his situation where you just sorta grow up with it and it's not abnormal to you at all. I mean, I have yet to shoot a big game animal myself, but I've downed a cow or two, and have done several gophers to their end, and it was never a big deal to me, because I grew up with it as normal.

I get really uncomfortable when someone talks about killing or death. But hearing him talk about hunting in a methodical and respectful way really highlighted how much of a disservice Hollywood has done the hunting community. I will always dislike death and hunting myself, but I can appreciate it. Especially those turkey calls!
This is so true, as an hunter I hunt big game animals when the big game animals have been matured and eventually pass the genes onto the population of animals in the general area... Allowing me to give the animal the quickest death that shall have wished for which I use to feed the unfortunate, community, and my family.
Same! I have a great respect for him because he loves nature. So many hunters I know do it as an ego boost, but maybe they aren't the majority, and that makes me happy (:
@@TheDrag2 I'd say yes, but it also has a valuable perspective. The hunter didn't collect that kill and let her suffer. Also, said hunter was hunting out of season.

S B I feel like it’s hands down the best name it could’ve been given. It directly shuts up and puts to rest the common stereotype argument that non educated people against hunters use all the time calling it unnecessary killing just for a “trophy” it clearly states in the title what hunting provides and is a huge part of what it’s about and what probably 90% of people don’t realise or understand
@@SkitzWallaby I agree with you. As a matter of fact, the show has completely changed my, as a non-hunters, preconceived notions of hunting. I don't think I've missed a single episode. But the unfortunate fact is that the people that need to see it most won't click on a show called "Meateater". They're already turned off to hunting as it is. Maybe call it "the fluffy byebye show" or something, I dunno, I'm not a TV producer. Just sayin...
I have a feeling the producers intended for this to be a 20 minute video. When they got Rinella's break down, they said: "Yeah, we gotta put all this in".
Its awesome how you touch on the fact that some people get emotional after their first kills. I got emotional when I was around 6 when I killed my first squirrel. I still get a little choked up when I take a deer, but I pay my respects to the animal and to the earth, and I feel like that show of respect sets things right in my mind.
I shot a bird with my BB gun in the back yard and didn't kill it just wounded it badly. I sobbed as I had to finish it off. Then my Dad made me eat it lol and that's the day I learned you don't shoot anything you don't plan on eating. It was a Robin and it was disgusting.
My first hunting kill i didnt care it was a groundhog that was a torn up and missing chuncks of fur. I dont like when fish die because im not going tk eat it but doeant uoset me cause i know easy snack for something else
So so glad Steve Rinella and the hunting lifestyle are finally getting mainstream exposure. As hunters decline, our public lands are threatened. Hunting and fishing tags fund 80%-90% of our public lands, so keeping the tradition up is incredibly important.
@@TheBasedBalkan There's enough material online to learn to do it yourself. That's what I did. Its rough at first, but if you keep trying and keep asking for help, you will learn over time.
Or, you know, public lands could be maintained by the public for the public and not for hunters. As they are intended. Does that make sense or am I crazy?
@37:15 Funniest line in the show. "Collected herself after crippling someone, which is a little bit startling, that you'd continue to hunt after shooting a human being..." LMFAO
Check his guest appearances on Joe Rogan’s podcast. He’s so full of knowledge and old animals that roamed the world before they went extinct. Fascinating stuff.
His name is Steven Rinella, he is awesome. He has a netflix show MeatEater, also a podcost same name, and TONS of youtube content that his team and him put out. They do great stuff. There is also another GQ breakdown with him and he has guested on Joe Rogan Experience like 5 or 6 times.
@@Ash12428 It depends. Furs for for clothes that you can buy are usually farmed in a disgusting way. With rinella you know that animal was killed for a reason. For eating, pest control or whatever, not just the fur. You can watch steve rinella on netflix ("meat eater") or on youtube. He's very passionate about animals.
There’s as much of a difference in how an animal is treated between wild caught and farmed fur as wild caught meat and farmed meat. Without a market for wild furs, the animals still die. The difference is the animal is wasted and the method of death isn’t as humane or targeted (ie lots of non targeted animals die when farmers use poison instead of having a trapper able to remove the target nuisance animal). This also increases the cost of food, since the farmer is incurring the cost instead of someone taking it for free.
I just wanna say that even if you aren’t a hunter you should go sit somewhere in nature in any place you can. Seeing animals go through their lives is something I never get tired of when I’m in a tree.
And the amount you see hunting vs hiking. When your sitting hidden by brush, you end up seeing much more wildlife then you do trampling through the woods
The relationship between Katniss and Gale is exactly what he's describing, how good Katniss is at archery is what he's talking about; That's exactly what was in the books.
My father thought it would be hilarious to let me shoot an 8 gauge shotgun when I was maybe 10 years old. It knocked me flat on my back. And he was right it was pretty funny.
It’s only funny if you were fully aware of what was about to happen. I hate those videos where some jackass puts a 3 1/2” slug in a 12 ga and hands it to his “never shot a gun before” girlfriend and says “it don’t kick much”.
I was a camp "archery instructor" for a couple of years and the number of kids, boys and girls, that talked about being like Katniss was so freaking cool. Growing being really into archery, I was kinda the only girl. But Katniss made a lot of city kids really interested in archery. It was so cool.
Great for hunting, horrible for political, economical, and international relations.. Trump is a good example of why you should have career politicians like Obama as the head/face of a nation.. Even though Trump has done some good... International and domestic Public opinion of the US has never been worse.
Love this guy. He truly loves and respects nature and gives great info. I'm stoked you guys brought him back and I cant wait for him to be brought back again for another breakdown!
I love Steve. He's such an advocate for all hunters out there. People like to paint the Hunter as a bad person because they kill an animal, but forget that hunters are the biggest conservation advocates there are. When you spend so much time in nature, you begin to have a greater appreciation for what's around you.
I feel like Steven is the type of guy who captures the attention of an entire dinner table when he speaks. He's got a very concise, thoughtful, informative, and welcoming demeanor.
@@rafox66 it’s not about not getting the reference…. It just makes sense as it is. Already real world logic to be found in the Star Wars quote, I don’t get the joke.
Is it American because of the weird caliber of the shotgun (as opposed to gauge) or because the kid has a gun? I suspect this is more of a rural American thing than an actual American thing.
@@geoffochsner3934 its not a weird caliber at all 410 is really common and not only that I live inna city with over half million people and everybody I knos has atleats a lil ol 410😂😂
Check out his show meateater. First 3 seasons are on RUclips and his website. It's a great show. The only hunting show I've ever seen where mistakes are not edited out. He's the real deal.
Wind River, White Hunter Black Heart, The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then the Bigfoot (yes, that’s a movie), Tell them Willie Boy is Here. There are so many movies I’d love to hear him discuss.
Steve is definitely my role model I get so annoyed when I am watching deer hunting shows on tv but Steve knows so much and respects animals so much and he has taught me a lot about hunting and how to be a good hunter
Yeah all the things he's saying, it's really cool to see what they're showing without telling it to you. "It's a Hail Mary hit" she's incredibly desperate. "They must be very close" Yes. "It'd make you one of the best archers in the world." I mean yea that's her schtick XD
@@Tazzie1312 lol I was looking for the comment I was like this man has just described Katnis and her relationship with Gale perfectly without even watching he film or reading the books lmao I was amazed
When I was a kid, my mom took us to Alberta, Canada to a place creatively named Head Smashed In Buffalo Jump. I don't know what 11yr old me expected. But it was a place where buffalos jumped and smashed their heads in.
Jon Lande The history and culture of the place is a lot more interesting than bone fragments. Head Smashed In is one of my favourite places in the world because of how important it was to the history and culture of Western Canada.
I, a 20 year old female, had a bow and arrow since I was 13. It was just some kids equipment, nothing professional, but shooting a bow and arrow does tons for your patience and your resistance to frustration. It’s so hard to figure out how to aim on your own and I’m not certain if I really figured it out now or if I’m just lucky. But it gives you a feeling of how hard hunting had to be back then, where bows and arrows were your only weapon.
“I’m not certain if I really figured it now or if I’m just lucky” haha that feeling with archery is true for me too. I shoot traditional bow but not all that often so when I pick it up and hit my targets still it’s like huh maybe I do know what Ike doing 😂
I tried those out at a fair and I sucked balls :D I have huge respect for all people who can operate a bow! I would need a crossbow, those are easier! Did you ever try slingshot?
I, also, am unsure if I've figured anything out or am just really lucky. I shoot in an interesting context to most. I shoot live steel at targets, yeah, but I also larp and shoot arrows with foam heads at people in combat situations. As much as what we do is fantasy, there's a very real feeling when you're sitting there with only a bow facing someone who can charge you when you're in between shots. It also adds a very interesting depth where you don't get the chance to be patient. If you take too long to release that shot, you or your buddy is dead. I've been doing this for the past five years and I still haven't figured out if everyone else is also just running off of instinct or if they're actually putting thought into each shot.
@@Adroit1911 I took a trip to the Smoky mountains this fall. We bought chest waders and went fly fishing in a fairly quick moving stream. Water was up to our waists. After about 5 minutes we both tripped and ended up getting that cold mountain runoff in our waders. Wasn't a good time but ill try it again in a more shallow area.
This guy delves so deep into explaining everything that a one sentence answer turns into entire monologues because he explains what he is explaining, which is him explaining what he is asked to explain hahaha. He does a very, very thorough job!
MeatEater had long been on 'My List' to watch before I watched this after having stumbled down a 'Breakdown' rabbit hole. Steve's two episodes really charmed me to him and his philosophy and I binge-watched all of MeatEater, and got into his podcast too. Now, rewatching this, and hearing him talk about hunting experiences I've seen and heard him talk at length about, I feel almost like I was there on that rainy day in Alaska. What a guy!
I remember spotlighting for foxes one night I shot a fox it dropped and started kicking so i went to go get it and it got up and ran first animal of the night needless to say I was up till my spotlight went flat looking for this fox about 2am I went inside I was up at the crack of dawn the next day and looked for that thing till 1in the afternoon never did find it but had someone say why go to all that effort for a mangy old fox and I said regardles of what it is can't be having it suffer that's why I looked for so long because I owed it to that fox to do so
This is by far the best comment section on any RUclips video I’ve seen. So much more diplomatic and un-vitriol filled (given the topic) than so many others. Good job community. Also, I laughed at more comments on this video than any other! Props to the level-headedness and sardonic wit of this group!
You're actually amazing man. My dream is to not only meet but also hunt with you. The amount of knowledge and insight you have is staggering. Keep it up and I'll keep dreaming!!!
I would readily pay money to see Steve talk to Russell Brand. A highly sophisticated hunter and naturalist, not an oxymoron, having a good conversation with a vegetarian (vegan), but one who is incredibly understanding and also philosophical in his field. Brand's chat with Joe Rogan was particularly good, a very gentlemanly debate with two knowledgeable people. I feel Steve and Russell would, similarly, have an interesting debate. Especially as a hunter who is so thrifty and frugal in his kills. Brand felt quite strongly against those who were profligate and prodigal.
Don't you just love logical and reasonable people, who can see things through another person's eyes and understand why they might feel the way they do. Who can admit maybe they were wrong, and maybe I could try things your way. And people who can agree to disagree when it comes down to it, and no side presented an argument good enough to sway the other, or their views are just too different to reach common ground, which does happen! The world needs more people like this... Because it's REALLY hard to be that person when you're talking to someone who's being completely ridiculous, childish, stubborn, lacking empathy, being overly sensitive, uncompromising, and disrespectful toward differences of opinions. So most people. When you're being disrespected so freely, and are being asked to see someone's side of something when they are COMPLETELY unwilling to see yours (meaning they think their opinion > your opinion, because you know.. They are a special little snowflake, and you aren't), it's really hard sometimes to treat that person with the respect you'd normally have given them... The respect you'd like to give them. At the same time though you won't allow anyone to walk all over you because why would you? Then pretty soon EVERYONE is an obnoxious child to each other. Whoopie... We're all doomed... Hahaha. The chances of getting two people like what's being mentioned here, talking to each other in every day conversation... Is such a low chance I feel like. We're talking, a rarity that one of them is a good dude, let alone both? Asking for that is just insanity!
Yeah but if it where me I wouldn’t add the music. And some of the narration is a little over the top, I still like the show, but it’s tv what do you expect right?
I used the, "Men hunt, women cook" line to get my god daughters mom to let her go duck hunting. She realized what I did when we got back with our limit of ducks
Love that he can be critical of some of these films yet still hold backs decent amount because he knows some things are intended artistically, very cool genuine guy
I love when Steve is on! He is a great, articulate and passionate speaker. A real raconteur; and he knows what he is talking about when it comes to this stuff. Super engaging.
I've been hunting since I was about 6. My family has been hunting for as long as we've lived in America like over 200 years. My dad made my brothers and I carry unloaded guns while hunting until he thought we were safe and mature enough to handle the responsibility. We then learned how to gut. If parents took the time to understand why and how of safety and hunting I don't think we would have as many accidents and as a culture that's been around longer than grocery stores wouldn't be looked at as badly
I'm a year late to this party, but he was so much fun to watch. A lot of expert information on hunting, and loved hearing his general perspective on hunting. Very down to earth and even without being a hunter myself...he was still very relatable. Awesome breakdown!
@@harry80124hill Makes sense. His knowledge into history, anthropology, animal behavior and the environment is enough to be called a professor. But I think its his values on life and reality that make him a legend in my books.
In an episode of his show "Meat Eater" he's talking about respect for the animals and he says "Everyday something dies so that you can live.", and that's about as true as it gets no matter who you are and how you live. There is no escaping it. I respect folks who choose not to eat meat, that's everyone's choice to make, but I have even more respect for folks who don't eat meat and still understand that death is still a consequence of life even for them.
Look at your comment next to Bag Stud's comment. You can understand a point of view you don't agree with or conform to, which is good. Bag stud here is spewing nonsense about something they don't understand. Go have a big mac and explain why hunting is bad....
@Bag Stud lets pretend that you actually have thought about what you wrote above and discuss the three key words. 1. Needless: Who are you to decide what is needless or needed for someone else? Everyone's circumstances are different, and hence the needs. Maybe in this situation, needless can be just hunting an animal for sport. Hunting an animal for food is needless? Why? Due to morals? Then what about meat factories that torture, maim and breed animals by the millions without any freedom to move in complete filth? At least animals in the wild have to freedom to hunt and be hunted. Hunters who hunt for food never kill excessively, only what they need and every part of the hunted is used. Then what about the normal person who buys all their produce at markets who are supplied by the commercial meat farms and factories? Do they not have a far greater moral debt? 2. Killing: Did I write killing or hunting? In what context? I like how narrow your view is. 3. Art: Seriously? Anything, and everything, done beyond a certain level of skill to create exceptional results can be considered art. Even myopia, as you have shown such art yourself in your above sentence.
Only got upset once in my life for killing an animal, hunted/fished since I could walk and lived in a pretty rural/farming area. Fox came one night and killed 40 out of 50 chickens, took one to eat. My own fault, secured the pen...Learned he couldn't get in so waited until they were out roaming and I wasn't there killed another 20 took 1. I camped out for 3 nights after that, whiffed my shot slightly (fatal shot but not instant) and had to run after it while it screeched like a banshee for half a mile across fields in the pitch black before I could end it. Might have been because it was the only time in my life i'd killed something not to eat and just for living but then screwed it up.
I get really uncomfortable when someone talks about killing or death. But hearing him talk about hunting in a methodical and respectful way really highlighted how much of a disservice Hollywood has done the hunting community. I will always dislike death and hunting myself, but I can appreciate it. Especially those turkey calls!
@Jonathan Taylor On one hand yes, but on the other I can see how it would seem different. "I'm killing this because I need to it it." vs "I'm killing this because I need to stop it." Your logic is sound, but his reaction is also reasonable.
His name is Steven Rinella. To him, hunting isn't just about the pursuit of an animal. It's about who we are and what we are made of. He lives to hunt and hunts to live. He is a meat eater.
As someone who doesn’t hunt and never has this is fascinating to me. Gosh, whole new perspective. I love these videos! Currently in a binge of all of the ones I can find!
Dersu Uzala is one of my favorite Kurosawa films, and that's high praise considering his catalogue. It's also one of Kurosawa's most obscure films, having been produced in the Soviet Union, and up until recently was only available in a poor quality DVD edition. Either way, top notch recommendation by Rinella.

I just watched the first part and was like “man I hope there is a second, this guy is so passionate and knowledgeable” and Tahdah, there is :) thank you!
He has a show called Meateater on Netflix and it's amazing and educational. Also his interviews on Joe Rogan podcast are fantastic also
Plus he has his own podcast
@@hunterfrom92 It's an unfortunate name for a show. It's an amazing show, but I feel like the name alone will turn a lot of people off.
S B I feel like it’s hands down the best name it could’ve been given. It directly shuts up and puts to rest the common stereotype argument that non educated people against hunters use all the time calling it unnecessary killing just for a “trophy” it clearly states in the title what hunting provides and is a huge part of what it’s about and what probably 90% of people don’t realise or understand
@@SkitzWallaby I agree with you. As a matter of fact, the show has completely changed my, as a non-hunters, preconceived notions of hunting. I don't think I've missed a single episode. But the unfortunate fact is that the people that need to see it most won't click on a show called "Meateater". They're already turned off to hunting as it is. Maybe call it "the fluffy byebye show" or something, I dunno, I'm not a TV producer. Just sayin...
Any MeatEater fans?
Yasss
Yep
You know it
Yep
Oh yea!! Hes awesome!!!
I have a feeling the producers intended for this to be a 20 minute video. When they got Rinella's break down, they said: "Yeah, we gotta put all this in".
Its awesome how you touch on the fact that some people get emotional after their first kills. I got emotional when I was around 6 when I killed my first squirrel. I still get a little choked up when I take a deer, but I pay my respects to the animal and to the earth, and I feel like that show of respect sets things right in my mind.
I cried when I killed my first deer it was excitement it would be great to fill that again
@@ThebluegrassLatte Its definitely exhilarating. But sad as well, for me anyway.
I shot a bird with my BB gun in the back yard and didn't kill it just wounded it badly. I sobbed as I had to finish it off. Then my Dad made me eat it lol and that's the day I learned you don't shoot anything you don't plan on eating. It was a Robin and it was disgusting.
My first hunting kill i didnt care it was a groundhog that was a torn up and missing chuncks of fur. I dont like when fish die because im not going tk eat it but doeant uoset me cause i know easy snack for something else
I’d only shoot if I know I can get a quick, painless kill.
We need a full commentary of No Country for Old Men with Steven Rinella.
Gnarly Wilderman yes plz
Oh yes! After that we need a full commentary Jerimiah Johnson with Steven Rinella.
I'd contribute to have that commentary produced. Let's start a GoFundMe.
@@jurisprudence6549 Yes.
He has a podcast
As a hunter i think this man is an excellent rolemodel for new hunters and great ambassador to those who never hunted
So so glad Steve Rinella and the hunting lifestyle are finally getting mainstream exposure. As hunters decline, our public lands are threatened. Hunting and fishing tags fund 80%-90% of our public lands, so keeping the tradition up is incredibly important.
Or, alternatively, adjusting budget priorities...
Want to get into hunting real bad but I don’t have any friends or know anyone who hunts sadly
@@TheBasedBalkan There's enough material online to learn to do it yourself. That's what I did. Its rough at first, but if you keep trying and keep asking for help, you will learn over time.
Or, you know, public lands could be maintained by the public for the public and not for hunters. As they are intended. Does that make sense or am I crazy?
tinkdnuos who?
I would sit here for a couple more hours just listening to his anecdotes. Great stuff
He hosts a Netflix show and podcast. Both called MeatEater and both very good
His book American Buffalo is really good and he narrates to the audiobook
He's been on Joe Rogan several times before as well, always great podcasts!
Meateater podcast all the way
Caleb Long you can see why they’d get on!
@37:15 Funniest line in the show. "Collected herself after crippling someone, which is a little bit startling, that you'd continue to hunt after shooting a human being..." LMFAO
Powerful Steve Rinella
I got no hunting experiences, but I could listen to him for yours, because of all insights he share. One of the most interesting breakdowns. Thx
He's got a TV show on Netflix, MeatEater. It's a great show and goes into a lot more than just hunting.
Check his guest appearances on Joe Rogan’s podcast. He’s so full of knowledge and old animals that roamed the world before they went extinct. Fascinating stuff.
He also has a podcast. Search up MeatEater podcast on iTunes or wherever there’s podcasts
Took the words out of my mouth. Exactly very insightful.
Jonathan Blaber My Netflix pile is growing. :)
Steve: *imitates turkey noises*
All my dogs: *booiiiiiing!*
my dog was asleep next to me and woke up looking for the turkey 😂
God my cats freak out anytime anyone does a call in meat eater 😂
I knew nothing about hunting until now. So fascinating. Have him back on his fantastic.
Check out his show on Netflix called Meat Eater!
If you’re like some of us that are more audio oriented you should give the Meateater podcast a shot too. It’s so much more than just a hunting show.
Nate S and his Joe Rogan Experience podcast
His name is Steven Rinella, he is awesome. He has a netflix show MeatEater, also a podcost same name, and TONS of youtube content that his team and him put out. They do great stuff. There is also another GQ breakdown with him and he has guested on Joe Rogan Experience like 5 or 6 times.
He also has a podcast called meateater, it's very informative
You need Steven Rinella on this more often. Can't get enough of this guys in depth knowledge and expertise. Great video.
"Vegetarian is a Native American word for bad hunter"
New favorite quote!
Its kinda funny, but it isnt true
lol
Cliche inside joke among hunters ,ever since the word "Vegetarian"became known to the general public .
@@adamushu that’s kinda why it’s a joke…
My dad's got a sticker on his hunting rig that says exactly that lol were both Indians and always got a kick out of it
He is such a great story teller. He would have been a great high school history teacher!
Listen to his podcast, it’s called MeatEater. It’s awesome
People are more vehemently opposed to fur than leather because it’s easier to attack a group of rich women than a biker gang...
Ehh not really. As far as I know, a lot of leather is a product of the meat industry. The process of obtaining fur is barbaric and unnecessary.
@@Ash12428
It depends. Furs for for clothes that you can buy are usually farmed in a disgusting way. With rinella you know that animal was killed for a reason. For eating, pest control or whatever, not just the fur.
You can watch steve rinella on netflix ("meat eater") or on youtube. He's very passionate about animals.
Lodder yeah I watch his show, I was talking about the typical way of producing fur, not Rinella turning a kill into fur, big difference in my book.
@@Ash12428 That's a fair point
There’s as much of a difference in how an animal is treated between wild caught and farmed fur as wild caught meat and farmed meat. Without a market for wild furs, the animals still die. The difference is the animal is wasted and the method of death isn’t as humane or targeted (ie lots of non targeted animals die when farmers use poison instead of having a trapper able to remove the target nuisance animal). This also increases the cost of food, since the farmer is incurring the cost instead of someone taking it for free.
I just wanna say that even if you aren’t a hunter you should go sit somewhere in nature in any place you can. Seeing animals go through their lives is something I never get tired of when I’m in a tree.
That's the reward one gets for being patient :)
And the amount you see hunting vs hiking. When your sitting hidden by brush, you end up seeing much more wildlife then you do trampling through the woods
People don't realize the value of sitting quietly in the woods.
Dos Equis needs to call Steven up and hire him as the most interesting man in the world... because he is.
100th like, and I second that
I love when he's talking about eating ants he just assumes everyone knows what licking a battery is like lmao
Wait. Am I the weird one?
But honestly who hasn't licked a 9 volt.
@@ianoliver9713 Really, I feel like licking a 9 volt is an essential childhood experience/ curiosity.
@@Jshib exactly !
I think he assumes it because it's likely true. Humans do as humans do.
The relationship between Katniss and Gale is exactly what he's describing, how good Katniss is at archery is what he's talking about; That's exactly what was in the books.
My father thought it would be hilarious to let me shoot an 8 gauge shotgun when I was maybe 10 years old. It knocked me flat on my back. And he was right it was pretty funny.
Thats not cool. Like at all
Lol i had a couple times where i shot a rifle and the chair i was sitting on rocked and i almost fell off.
Where did you father get an 8 gauge I don't think those are commercially made
The Fern they used to be common in the 80s. My father had many rare guns.
It’s only funny if you were fully aware of what was about to happen. I hate those videos where some jackass puts a 3 1/2” slug in a 12 ga and hands it to his “never shot a gun before” girlfriend and says “it don’t kick much”.
This man is a great ambassador for hunting 💯
I was a camp "archery instructor" for a couple of years and the number of kids, boys and girls, that talked about being like Katniss was so freaking cool. Growing being really into archery, I was kinda the only girl. But Katniss made a lot of city kids really interested in archery. It was so cool.
Yeah archery is pretty camp
My classmates used to call me Katniss if I didn’t miss during archery 😂😂
Rinella/putelis 2020
Better hunting and fishing for America
Nope it’s 2020. Donate now, proceeds are going into public land access.
Yep. Your loyal Huntervationist candidates!
Great for hunting, horrible for political, economical, and international relations.. Trump is a good example of why you should have career politicians like Obama as the head/face of a nation.. Even though Trump has done some good... International and domestic Public opinion of the US has never been worse.
Why does this feel like a Teddy Roosevelt 2.0 campaign? 😅 I don't hate it.
@@felixvelariusbos Teddy Roosevelt, the first progressive. I will pass. Although Rinella has changed my opinion on public lands for sure.
That video was 40 mins and it still just flew by, I could easily watch a video at movie-length of Steven dropping knowledge and not grow tired
Have to absolutely agree man!
MeatEater on Netflix. Or Stars in the Sky, also on Netflix.
I clicked on this for Katniss Everdeen and stayed for Steve.
I really wish they didn't use the shaky-camera-effect. :'(
I am not at all a hunter, but I could listen to this guy talk about hunting all day long.
@@serenawillabella8570 same
Clicked for Steve, and stayed for steve
Steve is awesome at his craft
Love this guy. He truly loves and respects nature and gives great info. I'm stoked you guys brought him back and I cant wait for him to be brought back again for another breakdown!
Need a part 3 him at his house pulling all this cool stuff out is the best
I love Steve. He's such an advocate for all hunters out there. People like to paint the Hunter as a bad person because they kill an animal, but forget that hunters are the biggest conservation advocates there are. When you spend so much time in nature, you begin to have a greater appreciation for what's around you.
Thank you for your comments about how important it is to acknowledge the sacrifice and emotion of true hunters
bro i'll be a hunter until i die
I feel like Steven is the type of guy who captures the attention of an entire dinner table when he speaks. He's got a very concise, thoughtful, informative, and welcoming demeanor.
He could kill the dinner, make the dinner, and enthrall us during the dinner all in one afternoon.
I'd love to see a part 3 with
"the ghost and the darkness"
"the legacy of a whitetail deer hunter" and
"escanaba in da moonlight"
The best hunter you could have picked for this video. He’s so knowledgeable about his passion it’s very inspiring
“These tracks are side by side. Sand people always ride single-file to hide their numbers.” Who knew there was real-world logic in that.
@@kim98677 You could have just said something like: "Ahh, I didn't get the reference." But instead you had to make yourself look like a moron.
@@rafox66 it’s not about not getting the reference…. It just makes sense as it is. Already real world logic to be found in the Star Wars quote, I don’t get the joke.
No Country for Old Men is my favorite movie and I loved hearing him talk about it
7:14 ‘my kid was out with his little .410 shotgun’ - the most American thing i’ve ever heard
Yup i had a shotgun when i 7 years old killing dove
Is it American because of the weird caliber of the shotgun (as opposed to gauge) or because the kid has a gun? I suspect this is more of a rural American thing than an actual American thing.
@@geoffochsner3934 its not a weird caliber at all 410 is really common and not only that I live inna city with over half million people and everybody I knos has atleats a lil ol 410😂😂
@@sparkablizzy9983 I mean that it's weird because it's the only shotgun measured in caliber. The rest are measured in gauges.
Most people I know that have grown up in rural areas (in Canada, Australia and Turkey) are no stranger to firearms in their childhood.
I can listen to him talk for hours about hunting. I've learned so much about the world of hunters and what goes into hunting game. Amazing breakdown!
Kudos to GQ for actually playing Steve and his brilliant ideas, opinions, etc.
This dude knows a lot. I feel informed. 10/10 would watch more of this type of content, hunting info, and this dude.
Check out his show meateater. First 3 seasons are on RUclips and his website. It's a great show. The only hunting show I've ever seen where mistakes are not edited out. He's the real deal.
C'mon... We need a part 3! The MeatEater deserves a part 3 and some 😋
Wind River, White Hunter Black Heart, The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then the Bigfoot (yes, that’s a movie), Tell them Willie Boy is Here. There are so many movies I’d love to hear him discuss.
Steve is definitely my role model I get so annoyed when I am watching deer hunting shows on tv but Steve knows so much and respects animals so much and he has taught me a lot about hunting and how to be a good hunter
Steven Rinella is such a wealth of knowledge.
As for Katniss’ Hail Mary shot in Hunger Games, her family was starving to death so in context of the story, it makes more sense.
Yeah all the things he's saying, it's really cool to see what they're showing without telling it to you. "It's a Hail Mary hit" she's incredibly desperate. "They must be very close" Yes. "It'd make you one of the best archers in the world." I mean yea that's her schtick XD
That’s the only reason you’re here isn’t it. It’s okay those books were great 😂
@@Tazzie1312 lol I was looking for the comment I was like this man has just described Katnis and her relationship with Gale perfectly without even watching he film or reading the books lmao I was amazed
People don’t understand that us hunters actually have more respect for each animal than most non hunters have
do you tell them that before voluntarily kill them
“i respect you”
there are definitely a lot of hunters who don’t respect or honor the animals they kill, but it’s really nice to know that a lot of hunters do.
Also murderers have more respect for humans than non-murderers.
@@jasonlira2755 take a moment to look at yourself. Comparing hunters, who hunt for food, with murderers. Smh
@@UNeedDaBeef Not really. I was pointing out the absurdity that hunters "respect" wildlife more than those of us who don't kill it.

Does it have anything in common with a true Scotsman?
No one person is the definition of America.

When I was a kid, my mom took us to Alberta, Canada to a place creatively named Head Smashed In Buffalo Jump. I don't know what 11yr old me expected. But it was a place where buffalos jumped and smashed their heads in.
Having hiked out there numerous times, sharing the same fate doesn't seem unrealistic. Especially in the rain.
@@brandedsniper49 Head Smashed In Lost Albertan Fall
Buffalo jumps are really only cool if there are artifacts and bones you can pick up, but those are always combed over pretty well
So not just a clever name?
Jon Lande The history and culture of the place is a lot more interesting than bone fragments. Head Smashed In is one of my favourite places in the world because of how important it was to the history and culture of Western Canada.
I, a 20 year old female, had a bow and arrow since I was 13. It was just some kids equipment, nothing professional, but shooting a bow and arrow does tons for your patience and your resistance to frustration. It’s so hard to figure out how to aim on your own and I’m not certain if I really figured it out now or if I’m just lucky. But it gives you a feeling of how hard hunting had to be back then, where bows and arrows were your only weapon.
“I’m not certain if I really figured it now or if I’m just lucky” haha that feeling with archery is true for me too. I shoot traditional bow but not all that often so when I pick it up and hit my targets still it’s like huh maybe I do know what Ike doing 😂
I tried those out at a fair and I sucked balls :D I have huge respect for all people who can operate a bow! I would need a crossbow, those are easier!
Did you ever try slingshot?
Fly fishing has the same sort of effect. If you haven't tried it, you might want to. ☺️
I, also, am unsure if I've figured anything out or am just really lucky. I shoot in an interesting context to most. I shoot live steel at targets, yeah, but I also larp and shoot arrows with foam heads at people in combat situations.
As much as what we do is fantasy, there's a very real feeling when you're sitting there with only a bow facing someone who can charge you when you're in between shots.
It also adds a very interesting depth where you don't get the chance to be patient. If you take too long to release that shot, you or your buddy is dead.
I've been doing this for the past five years and I still haven't figured out if everyone else is also just running off of instinct or if they're actually putting thought into each shot.
@@Adroit1911 I took a trip to the Smoky mountains this fall. We bought chest waders and went fly fishing in a fairly quick moving stream. Water was up to our waists. After about 5 minutes we both tripped and ended up getting that cold mountain runoff in our waders. Wasn't a good time but ill try it again in a more shallow area.
Steve is the best of us. I have been following him for years and the guy is a class act.
Best one yet. Very happy for the length. Didn't even realized i spent 40 minutes watching it until it was done.
This guy delves so deep into explaining everything that a one sentence answer turns into entire monologues because he explains what he is explaining, which is him explaining what he is asked to explain hahaha. He does a very, very thorough job!
This series with Rinella and Forrest is the best. You might as well just do a separate one with just them every week.
Probably the two best breakdown professionals with you on that bro
I have a great amount of respect for Steve. He literally lives to hunt. Not many hunters of his caliber are still present today.
MeatEater had long been on 'My List' to watch before I watched this after having stumbled down a 'Breakdown' rabbit hole.
Steve's two episodes really charmed me to him and his philosophy and I binge-watched all of MeatEater, and got into his podcast too.
Now, rewatching this, and hearing him talk about hunting experiences I've seen and heard him talk at length about, I feel almost like I was there on that rainy day in Alaska.
What a guy!
" A little bit startling that you'd continue to hunt after shooting a human being." Idk why but that cracked me up
I remember spotlighting for foxes one night I shot a fox it dropped and started kicking so i went to go get it and it got up and ran first animal of the night needless to say I was up till my spotlight went flat looking for this fox about 2am I went inside I was up at the crack of dawn the next day and looked for that thing till 1in the afternoon never did find it but had someone say why go to all that effort for a mangy old fox and I said regardles of what it is can't be having it suffer that's why I looked for so long because I owed it to that fox to do so
Respekt

Also, I laughed at more comments on this video than any other! Props to the level-headedness and sardonic wit of this group!

Best guest appearance yet!
He just threw serious shade at the entire Bigfoot community WORLD STARRRRR
42 Minutes of Steven Rinella talking about hunting in movies? Ok, let me grab a beer real quick.
And a steak sandwich
Steve is cursed with never being able to put out enough content.
I would readily pay money to see Steve talk to Russell Brand. A highly sophisticated hunter and naturalist, not an oxymoron, having a good conversation with a vegetarian (vegan), but one who is incredibly understanding and also philosophical in his field.
Brand's chat with Joe Rogan was particularly good, a very gentlemanly debate with two knowledgeable people.
I feel Steve and Russell would, similarly, have an interesting debate. Especially as a hunter who is so thrifty and frugal in his kills. Brand felt quite strongly against those who were profligate and prodigal.
It would not surprise me at all to see Russel brand go on a hunt with Steve. That dude has turned so many vegans into hunters it’s insane.
If you look up "Russell Brand Joe Rogan", they talked about Elk hunting on Joe's Podcast.
Don't you just love logical and reasonable people, who can see things through another person's eyes and understand why they might feel the way they do. Who can admit maybe they were wrong, and maybe I could try things your way. And people who can agree to disagree when it comes down to it, and no side presented an argument good enough to sway the other, or their views are just too different to reach common ground, which does happen!
The world needs more people like this... Because it's REALLY hard to be that person when you're talking to someone who's being completely ridiculous, childish, stubborn, lacking empathy, being overly sensitive, uncompromising, and disrespectful toward differences of opinions. So most people.
When you're being disrespected so freely, and are being asked to see someone's side of something when they are COMPLETELY unwilling to see yours (meaning they think their opinion > your opinion, because you know.. They are a special little snowflake, and you aren't), it's really hard sometimes to treat that person with the respect you'd normally have given them... The respect you'd like to give them. At the same time though you won't allow anyone to walk all over you because why would you?
Then pretty soon EVERYONE is an obnoxious child to each other. Whoopie... We're all doomed... Hahaha. The chances of getting two people like what's being mentioned here, talking to each other in every day conversation... Is such a low chance I feel like. We're talking, a rarity that one of them is a good dude, let alone both? Asking for that is just insanity!
His comment on leather is so true.
I am a female hunter and I was actually the one to ask my dad if I could hunt with him when I was a young child.
That's awesome,
I love Steven Rinella. I love his show Meat Eater. I could, and have, watched him for hours and hours.
Loved this. Love listening to how passionate Steve is
Once again, Steve Rinella proves that even though he hosts a dramatic hunting TV show, he actually knows what he’s doing
Yeah but if it where me I wouldn’t add the music. And some of the narration is a little over the top, I still like the show, but it’s tv what do you expect right?
I used the, "Men hunt, women cook" line to get my god daughters mom to let her go duck hunting. She realized what I did when we got back with our limit of ducks
Love that he can be critical of some of these films yet still hold backs decent amount because he knows some things are intended artistically, very cool genuine guy
I love when Steve is on! He is a great, articulate and passionate speaker. A real raconteur; and he knows what he is talking about when it comes to this stuff. Super engaging.
I've been hunting since I was about 6. My family has been hunting for as long as we've lived in America like over 200 years. My dad made my brothers and I carry unloaded guns while hunting until he thought we were safe and mature enough to handle the responsibility. We then learned how to gut. If parents took the time to understand why and how of safety and hunting I don't think we would have as many accidents and as a culture that's been around longer than grocery stores wouldn't be looked at as badly
I never gutted a deer yet and I have killed 4. I would like to learn but the insides smell extreamly bad
That’s a great idea to have them carry an empty rifle. I’m going to use that when my kids get old enough.
This guy is so amazing, no attitude, so down to earth. Would love to go into nature with him and just listening and learning 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I'm a year late to this party, but he was so much fun to watch. A lot of expert information on hunting, and loved hearing his general perspective on hunting. Very down to earth and even without being a hunter myself...he was still very relatable. Awesome breakdown!
What an amazing person to be able to make a pacifist vegetarian respect the art of hunting. Legend, bro.
aayush baheti Steve is also an incredible author
@@harry80124hill Makes sense. His knowledge into history, anthropology, animal behavior and the environment is enough to be called a professor. But I think its his values on life and reality that make him a legend in my books.
In an episode of his show "Meat Eater" he's talking about respect for the animals and he says "Everyday something dies so that you can live.", and that's about as true as it gets no matter who you are and how you live. There is no escaping it. I respect folks who choose not to eat meat, that's everyone's choice to make, but I have even more respect for folks who don't eat meat and still understand that death is still a consequence of life even for them.
Look at your comment next to Bag Stud's comment. You can understand a point of view you don't agree with or conform to, which is good. Bag stud here is spewing nonsense about something they don't understand. Go have a big mac and explain why hunting is bad....
@Bag Stud lets pretend that you actually have thought about what you wrote above and discuss the three key words.
1. Needless: Who are you to decide what is needless or needed for someone else? Everyone's circumstances are different, and hence the needs. Maybe in this situation, needless can be just hunting an animal for sport. Hunting an animal for food is needless? Why? Due to morals? Then what about meat factories that torture, maim and breed animals by the millions without any freedom to move in complete filth? At least animals in the wild have to freedom to hunt and be hunted. Hunters who hunt for food never kill excessively, only what they need and every part of the hunted is used. Then what about the normal person who buys all their produce at markets who are supplied by the commercial meat farms and factories? Do they not have a far greater moral debt?
2. Killing: Did I write killing or hunting? In what context? I like how narrow your view is.
3. Art: Seriously? Anything, and everything, done beyond a certain level of skill to create exceptional results can be considered art. Even myopia, as you have shown such art yourself in your above sentence.
Only got upset once in my life for killing an animal, hunted/fished since I could walk and lived in a pretty rural/farming area. Fox came one night and killed 40 out of 50 chickens, took one to eat. My own fault, secured the pen...Learned he couldn't get in so waited until they were out roaming and I wasn't there killed another 20 took 1. I camped out for 3 nights after that, whiffed my shot slightly (fatal shot but not instant) and had to run after it while it screeched like a banshee for half a mile across fields in the pitch black before I could end it. Might have been because it was the only time in my life i'd killed something not to eat and just for living but then screwed it up.
That should be ya
@@barrytotherow1860 what should be him?
I get really uncomfortable when someone talks about killing or death. But hearing him talk about hunting in a methodical and respectful way really highlighted how much of a disservice Hollywood has done the hunting community. I will always dislike death and hunting myself, but I can appreciate it. Especially those turkey calls!
@Jonathan Taylor On one hand yes, but on the other I can see how it would seem different. "I'm killing this because I need to it it." vs "I'm killing this because I need to stop it." Your logic is sound, but his reaction is also reasonable.
It’s great to hear you talking so casually about the Tazzy Tiger, I’ve never heard a non-Australian talk about it
Whoa you're right I'm female, oldest, dad's princess, no brothers & manager of a private hunt club ha!
Same. Oldest girl of three girls. Hunt to eat.
His name is Steven Rinella. To him, hunting isn't just about the pursuit of an animal. It's about who we are and what we are made of. He lives to hunt and hunts to live. He is a meat eater.
Rinella/putelis 2020
Better hunting and fishing for America
People who say all hunters are just bloodthirsty monsters who don't care about wildlife and just want to kill things, need to watch this video.
乇volve Outdoors nature is metal
Funny how those same people think T-Bones grow on trees.
As someone who doesn’t hunt and never has this is fascinating to me. Gosh, whole new perspective. I love these videos! Currently in a binge of all of the ones I can find!
haven’t even hunted once, just watched all 42 minutes of hunting facts 😂
Respect for Steven Rinella knowing Dersu Uzala. It was the first film Akira Kurosawa made after trying to kill himself
Also loved the visual aides
Dersu Uzala is one of my favorite Kurosawa films, and that's high praise considering his catalogue. It's also one of Kurosawa's most obscure films, having been produced in the Soviet Union, and up until recently was only available in a poor quality DVD edition. Either way, top notch recommendation by Rinella.
