The SMARTEST Deer I Have Ever Hunted!! The Story of “Floppy”
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 ноя 2023
- Mike has hunted whitetails all across the country but this particular deer was one that outsmarted him more than any other. Floppy was a super unique buck with both of his ears being broken and flopping down in return giving him his name. Mike chased Floppy for years on his family’s property and finally connecting with him will be one of the most memorable hunts he will ever have!

I think one of the biggest advantages that legendary buck had was that he was deaf which made his biggest strengths his smell mad e his ability to smell even stronger. What an amazing a smart buck. That shot was ballzy and a touch of luck. What an amazing shot! 🦌🦌
So glad i found this channel, never seen anyone else feel the same way i do about these animals. The reverence shows in the way yall produce and edit, keep it alive, ill keep comin back
Really appreciate this! Thanks so much!
Thank you so much for capturing this hunt to share with us. That’s is an incredible hunt and such a great ending. Congratulations to you and my hats off to the floppy as well.
For not being able to hear he still had a very good reaction time!
What a story! Congratulations Michael! Love how you tell a story. Excellent tribute to a special buck!
Really appreciate it! Thank you for the kind words.
These longer RUclips “episodes” have been so much better for being able to tell the entire story while still keeping the funny BTS stuff. Great content as always!!
Really appreciate it!
That was a great story and such a well told journey, found myself rooting for old Floppy a little bit, but glad he was taken by a hunter who appreciated and loved him. Congrats
Good gosh. I thought your previous video was one of the best hunting vids I've watched in a long time. But THIS one was special. The viewer can tell the immense respect you had for Floppy. What a deer and what a fantastic job with the videography. Looking forward to more. Ya'll are one of my new favorites.
@coastalHighCountry really appreciate this! This means a lot and thankful for the support!
What a story! I can totally see how much dedication you've put into this deer. Amazing and this is coming from someone who doesn't hunt for trophy. Love the respect you have for what you do. Bowhunters rule!
Thank you so much!
Beautifully told story, congrats on a monarch of a whitetail!
This is my favorite show, I love the end when the family shows up 👍
Thank you!
Awesome deer and story Mike!
Thanks!
What a story, buck & shot! Congratulations man what an awesome buck. Hard work always pays off!
First season with channel and I can say keep up the good work, I watch a lot of hunting channels and you guys have quickly become my favorite
This means a lot! Seriously…thank you!
When they lose one sense it seems their other senses become heightened, pretty cool
Definitely!
Very cool Mike!! Great shot!
Thank you!
Your videos are the greatest hunting videos ever I love you guys
Thanks so much!
That's an awesome deer with a really cool story with it reminds me of that Mitch guy's buck That had droopy ears too that would have possibly been the world record typical
Oh Deer ,Great shot,,Wondering if you found his yearly sheds!!!
Truly amazing the time you guys put in ❤
Thank you!
Hunsucker this was one of the best hunting videos and the story that goes with it that I've ever watched. Congrats and excellent shot. 👍🏼🇺🇲
Thanks so much!
Awesome story and awesome deer. Congrats!
Thank you!
Awesome story dude and you can’t go wrong with some Guido’s pizza after a cold evening in the stand.
No doubt! Appreciate the watch!
Great content as always!
Thanks!
Awesome shot and get to share with friend live
Dude your a beast when it comes to telling a story behind the camera 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Thanks man!
Congratulations! I was just telling a buddy about this deer from a previous video and we talked about how if you loose one of your senses, all of the rest of them become heightened! Know wonder he was hard to get!
Absolutely! Thanks for watching!
Such a cool buck and I love it when the mic picks up your heartbeat. What caused his ears to be like that?
No clue!
Well done, epic as always
Thanks!
bitter sweet congrats !
Awesome
Them stories like that can get in a man's feelings
No doubt!
Broad daylight in a food plot wow!!!!
Appreciate the story, why do you keep grunting at him when you know that he is deaf or very, very hard of hearing? I guess just habits we all have and get locked in at the moment. Love watching your videos
Go Team Bowtech!!!!!
🙌
He probably wasn’t deaf. This is common in Texas. Usually what happened was he was born during a heavy freeze which caused frost bite to his ears and that’s the outcome
DAAAAANG HERO! YOU FLOPPED FLOPPY AT 60 YARDS!!!!
I love how he was deaf, but not deaf enough to not jump your string. Deer are truly amazing.
Makes me think he saw the arrow mid flight.
They think he is deaf and then ducks the shot LOL
Lol
Well... This deer is Rompala AF!
What a shot holy shit
Did you add the sound, or is that your actual heart beating before during and after the shot???
That was 100% real! Crazy!
BFD big floppy down
If he was deaf, how did he jump the string?
Turns out he wasn’t entirely deaf!
Those nap killzones are one bad to the bone broadheads
This was the G5 MegaMeat!
South Ms. you never see a mature buck like that out in an open field. If you find a 5 to 7 yr old buck and pinpoint him and then kill him you can kill any animal on the planet. Hardest deer to hunt period. Nice buck dude.
Thanks! This is a very small foodplot between two thick areas of timber which he didn’t leave often but the rut got the best of him.
Wonder what his injury is from?
We never did figure it out!
Amazing story I've been after the same buck for now this year was the third year but he disappeared. Had him on camera for 2 years trying to kill him. Came into this year super excited and I never got a pic of them I don't know if he's dead moved on to a different property or what but I haven't had a picture of him now for almost a year last December is the last time I had a picture of him makes me sad.
Dang hopefully he shows! He definitely might’ve moved too. Sometimes they do that when they get old. Good luck the rest of this Fall!
Must be fake, everyone said the Rompola buck was fake because it had floppy ears....
🤣🤣
Deaf deer yet you try and rattle him in lol
Why do you take so long to go and get the deer ?
Waiting for the family.
What an irresponsible shot on such an awesome animal? Thankfully it didn’t just wound him. Your lucky
@kevin Johnson irresponsible? Mike practices at this distance and further year round. He’s confident in his ability and his archery setup.
Do you not agree that that was 1 inch from hitting that deer in a non-lethal spot, where it would’ve just been wounded and not found? Shots from that distance if any should be on a deer that’s not aware of your prescence and/or not staring right at you. It was very obvious before the shot took place the deer would jump the string in my opinion.
@@progolfer96 which is why I aimed low anticipating the duck. The deer expired in seconds. Just like playing the wind in your golf game 😉
Still setting up?you got too much gear fella.
😅 lugging all this cam gear around is too much gear!
