Lol, I could smell it when you vented that buck.. Laughing at the fact you included that. Awesome.
When it vented I ducked back from my laptop like I was going to dodge the smell or something! HAHAHA
The thing I like the most about your channel is all the deer footage you get ! 👍 If someone shoots a big buck, that's all you see on the episode . Thanks
11:50 …billy boss buck…YOU got CATMAN’d…
Great vigilance in the search. You have shown the ups and the downs of deer hunting.
This is honest hunting, not selling to the highest sponsor, great skills and camera work. All of your videos.
You show it all. Honest production for us regular ol Carhartt guys.
Keep it up Catman. Props from MI where you got lots of viewers. Nice buck to match skills with for a few seasons.
"The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit."

These things happen. Thanks for staying with it, finding and checking him in, even though the meat couldn’t be saved.
Hats off for finding him! That’s one of the hardest parts of hunting in my opinion - especially without a solid blood trail to follow.
Glad you found him. I bet that was one restless night trying to sleep. He is a great buck and you made a great shot. Don't doubt yourself.
Great buck,sad the meat was bad. That shot wasn't all that bad I thought maybe a little back. At least you found him, way to keep looking
Catman I am disabled and can't get in the field any more but whiching your video's, and I am in the field again thanks for sharing your experience with me.
That's a real heart breaker! So sorry but I'm glad you found him shows real character.
Cheers for sharing, it doesn’t always work out perfectly, and I’m glad that there are people like you posting the good and the bad. I hope you don’t get too much hate, and if you do, it’ll be from people with no real world experience in hunting. Please keep doing what you do, and happy hunting 👍🏼👍🏼
Glad you found him Catman. Hate that the meat was bad. I had my worst muzzleloader shot this past Saturday on a small buck out of my climber. Coming in, quartering towards me. He got in pretty close, stopped, and started walking again just as I pulled the trigger. Hit at the top of the stomach and exited out the bottom back of his belly. Some of his intestine were bulging out. I was fortunate he hunched up and only walked a little ways before stopping. I was able to reload and put a second bullet right behind the shoulder. He dropped within 30 yards. I was VERY lucky he gave me the second shot opportunity.
Proud of you for persevering and tracking down that book. So sorry that you lost the meat!. Either way I'm proud of you for sticking it out and tracking down your buck
Gotta' love those foggy mornings. I think the bucks make more mistakes in fog than other inclement weather.
Nice buck, sorry he was not usable. Shot looked good. Sometimes it just happens they don't bleed out and leave a trail. You hunt long enough it will happen, glad to see you did the right thing and stuck with it and tagged him out. Good job.
Good job sticking with it and finding the buck. I had a similar experience this week but the coyotes beat me to him.
I could watch a whole video of Catman just cruising his boat through the fog - ASMR for outdoorsman 😂👌
Finished the vid - sorry you weren’t able to save the meat - nice buck!
I had same problem bullets not passing through with 100 gr went to 150 gr and that fixed the problem. Glad you found that stud!
Nice deer. It's a shame you were not able to find him sooner but you stayed with it till you did. Good job.
Really nice deer. Shame you couldn’t find him in time to harvest the meat. But you put in the work to eventually find him. Kudos to you for that
Damn muzzleloader s man. I have had trouble with blood trails when it’s not a perfect shot. At least you found him and know! Sucks but not as bad as not ever finding him and not knowing if suffering or not. Good deer
Yeah it's weird how underpowered muzzleloaders are. I'm gonna start neck or high shoulder shooting them to try and drop them cause like you said, ML blood trails usually suck. Makes ya almost wanna use a bow
I'm proud of you Catman for persevering and staying with it until you found him. If you hunt long enough a sometimes questionable shot happens. If someone says they never lost a deer they either haven't hunted very long or they aren't telling the truth. I lost a nice buck years ago that I neck shot. Even had a guide with me and perhaps he survived. Who knows? Still a good video and a good buck! Keep the videos coming Catman!
We have all had it happen to us before and no one likes it. Good job of staying with it til you knew for sure. As hunters we all should.
Very good video ! your ability to show the xtras including other animals make your videos fun to watch. You are so comfortable in the woods- good stuff !
Congrats on the bittersweet Trophy! 🏆. Thanks for taking us along.
Just watched this hunt and I have been there before with no blood on muzzleloader hunts after 30 years I have finally found the best bullet I believe it's a Barnes Expander all copper 250 grain hollow point . They either drop or bleed like you wouldn't believe but every single one exits the deer and they leave a huge exit hole . I have the cva wolf just like yours and they are tack drivers out of it . Love your channel reminds me of myself many years ago . Keep it up and I'll be watching.
Sorry you didn't find him right away! Very nice deer. Part of hunting as you know. Much respect for you in doing what you could to recover your deer!
Was he the same deer from the year before? They were both tall!
Glad you found him, I shot a nice one on the river this year cannot find oh, it will sure eat on you I'm going this weekend to look again the rivers come down a little
Congrats! You have a knack for keeping things interesting!
Man he's tall! Good buck. I'm glad you found him. It's amazing how they can just blend in in wide open ground like that. Me and my dad did the same thing once. Walked right by the buck he'd shot on the way in. Gave up and started back out, we had walked on each side of him within 10 feet and hadn't seen him in an open pine stand. Luckily I spotted him on the way out.
Thanks for keeping it real Catman! Shame you didn’t get to find him earlier.
Glad to see you made it home safe Catman, happy hunting
What a fine public land buck. Hate you didn't get to fry them inner loins. Dang!
I had this same exact thing happen last year.My biggest buck to date.Hit him at 9am,shot was a little back.Gave him 6 hours.Went and searched till 2am and pulled out,went back the next morning.Walked past him the night before by 15 yards.Lost the meat due to 80 degree weather but happy to have found him.Bitter sweet I guess...
Great Due Diligence! You show all of Hunting the good and the sometimes sad. I really enjoy your work. Thanks, and have a Blessed Thanksgiving.
Man that’s a hard one to swallow. The shot wasn’t too bad. You showed awesome character by staying with it. Sorry you couldn’t keep the meat but at least he died near by and didn’t suffer too much. Good job as always. Can’t wait till the next one.
Favorite hunter on RUclips. Keep it up catman. You're the man
Great buck, at least you found him for the rack, too bad you didn't find him the day before. I shot a doe about a week ago with the bow that required a grid search. Complete pass through, but lost the blood trail after about 100 yards. Turns out she ran about 400 yards flat out with lungs plugging up one hole somehow and a bit of guts plugging up the other. Took about 4 hours to find her and the temps were in the 50's so no problem with the meat.
Nice one Catman!! Way to stay on em for the recovery!
What a Tennessee giant, awesome buck. Bout the same shot happened to me this year, things just happen. But I’m glad you found him. Way to spend time tracking him!
Congrats on ur buck! He's a dandy. Sucks that you didn't recover him in time to keep the meat but glad you were still able to find him.
Very nice video! Sorry to see the loss of harvest. Nice work on staying with the recovery search.
When you went to stick the knife in , I knew what was coming. Haha. Great buck Jon! He will look great on the wall of fame.
Love the ground hunts. Amazing how close the deer come in before they see or wind you.
I think I gagged for you when you popped that hole! Can't stomach it lol
Glad you ended up finding him.
Well, damn. I'm fairly certain if you had not been trying to make sure the camera was on this buck and put your full time & attention on the shot, the shot would have been slightly better placed. We are grateful for your efforts to capture the hunt on film for us to watch and enjoy. Just sucks it cost you that bucks meat to get this footage. Fortunately, nothing goes to waste in nature and the critters will have that devoured in no time at all. Keep at it and we'll keep watching! Beautiful buck BTW!
Really nice TN buck, shame you lost the meat, but glad you found him.
So cool that you were able to catch up with him the next year. Congrats man would have liked to see more of the deer at the end of the video but I understand that you were all worked up.
I grinded it out bow hunting on public for a week. Had 2 bucks walk out on day 4, 5, & 6. Was able to take a shot on day 6. I swear it was a heart shot. But no blood trail at all.
Glad you found your buck.
That is awesome!!! Congrats man. No kill goes to waste. Coyotes and buzzards will eat good
That is a bad break. I hardly ever climb a tree anymore, but I have found that it is often more difficult to find a good blood trail from the ground. Obviously, the angle makes a difference, but on a higher or further back shot or not a full pass through, it can darn near impossible.
That little guy wanted a boat ride 🤣🤣🤣
What a AWESOME buck brother!! Was that the same one you let walk last year?? Cartman brother, CONGRATULATIONS!! Man I love that tall rack!! Thanks for sharing brother and be safe out there!!
Had the same situation on one of my biggest early archery walked right past him in the dark by the next day meat was spoiled it’s tough still 4 years later I don’t know how we didn’t see him but it happens good buck catman
Glad you found him. Had the same thing happen and didn't find mine. Great job.
Glad you found him it sucks when they get away
Jim so sorry this happened.I’ve been there and I hate it also.I went to some better powder and bullet to get an exit hole.So far it’s working great.
Bittersweet. Glad you were able to recovery him, sorry meat went bad. Great buck!
Congrats glad you found him! Is it bad that I could smell the deer through the phone when you tried to cut the bullet out?? 🤢
Oh I smelled it when I was editing the video 🤢😂
Great job staying with. Your a true hunter and a gentleman.
Congratulations on a great buck. Hate it for you that you couldn't save the meat. Anyone who hunts would be lying if they say it hasn't happened to them. We all been there. Great video and hats off for your continued effort to recover him
Nice Buck Catman. I'm glad you found him.
Glad you found him even if the meat was bad.
There a lot of deer lost with muzzle loaders every year ! I shot a 160” deer and it took me four days to find him It was a good shot just a touch low , that was 12 years ago. I changed bullets and haven’t had a problem since !
You know most people would have just gave up and just walked off and let that animal rot in that but you stuck to it and even on camera admitted that you made a bad shot to me that's a real hunter and a real person and I'm extremely glad that you were able to find him you know mine you may not be able to use the meat but you sure have a good memory of of the shot and then and of the hunt congratulations
Music sounded great
Really added to the suspense
Good work Catman keep on slayin 'em
Glad ya stuck with it an found him. Sucks the meat was spoiled. You did it right
When it's a Catman's video I smash the like button before I even watch the video. Because I know it's gonna be good. Keep em coming CATMAN
Great buck, not sure how I didn’t see this when
It came out.
Good deer Catman...It happens like that sometimes but at least u gave it extra effort..
It's amazing how even in their last breaths of life they can get up in stuff and blend in so well a hawk can't even see them
Glad you got the nice head gear! Guess you have got to go to the store and buy a Rib- I!
Awesome!!! Glad you found him.
Nice deer! Sucks that the meat had to go to waste though, but it happens to the best of us.
He reminds me of the one you let go last year. Tall tines . Way to stick with it! Good or bad, still a memorable hunt. Looking forward to the next video.
It was prolly the same deer a year later, I pretty sure that why he included that clip at the beginning
Great hunt i felt bad for you that meat that went to waste but u found him and tag him... congrats 👏
It happens that way sometimes catman, to even the best of us
Way to lay in there with it and find him bad deal about the meat but we have all had that happen. Nice one brotha 👊🏻
grear deer, it happens, sometimes tunnel vision kicks in when looking for blood
I feel your pain Catman, shot my biggest this year and wasn't able to recover him right away. It was cold enough that I was able to save a fair bit of meat but everything around the stomach was bad.
Just shot “at” my biggest buck last night… ducked and spun real hard when I shot. Followed lung blood with a dog for 200 yards, then he crossed a creek and followed it for 150. Came back in the morning with a different dog. Found more blood and hair. Never found him…😂 I want to puke
Glad you found him!
Great hunt and video. Im glad you found your buck . Stay safe
I switched to the 250gr Monoflex this year. Hoping they do a little better they definitely give me a tighter group at 100yards
always enjoy your content brother. great tips and wisdom to take in. congrats on the kill. 👊🏻
Never give up, had similar thing happen to me last year lost blood at dark, went back next morning, found it next morning, coyotes ruined everything but rack
Nice buck Catman, sorry you didn't find him as soon as you wanted, but you did a good job self filming and getting the shot off.
Thanks for sharing your videos and keep them coming please.
Congrats. Nice buck. It happens to all hunters eventually. As always I enjoyed the video. Keep em comin young man.
Great music as always Jim. Fit the moods. Too bad the meat was bad. Biggest buck, not the greatest of memories I'm sure. Must be hard down there because it's so warm. 37 here right now and it's warm, but it's frig weather.
It can sure happen especially if you have hunted enough , I enjoy your videos never give up and back down especially from the assholes that don’t like us.
Nice Work Catman !!! wanna see the follow up of the process this ones gonna go thru .... musta been warmer than it looks .... Thanks !!!
Heartbreaker! Tough luck! Thanks for the video!
Nice buck! I'll be honest, I gagged when you dug that slug out.
Congrats on finding him..He is a dang good buck..Again Congrats
Sorry you lost the meat but at the very least you found him and was able to salvage the horns. That was quite possibly the same buck from last year. Do you think it was? With the shape of the horns, it would almost have to be. Congrats Catman. Your perseverance paid off. Great buck in anyone's woods.
Beautiful buck man!! I hate the meat was bad but u paid him a solid tribute .
Sorry you lost the meat, but you kept at it and found him. Good job!
Nice buck, to often muzzle loader doesn't blow all the way through and not leaving a good blood trail
