After the initial excitement of finally getting a shot at an elk, Jeff and Mark Skousen struggle to find blood. Doubt and disappointment start to creep in as they scour the hillside for any sign of a hit. Team Pure Elevation is running low on water, and Team Angry Spike is lured in to set up on another rainforest ghost. And Corey and Donnie are hiking into the distant wallow to search for the big bull they spotted during the morning hunt....not all elk hunts end the way you envision them ending.
Join us for the Evening Hunts of Day 2!

God's Blessings to all the Teams
Great news, I didn't think Donnie was related to that Nigerian Prince that is offering millions...seemed a little off.
Yep ...got one of those scammers too. Most likely the same ones that have used Randy Newberg's website.
Finding that arrow that high up in that tree after a pass thru was a “wow” moment. That is amazing. The angle of the hill, the shot, and then the tree being in the just the right location.
Where that arrow ended up after the pass through in the tree is crazy! Glad he found it!
This brings back memories. The ups and downs of archery hunting, it’s what keeps us going back time and time again.
Now we gotta wait until Tuesday for the next one! Let’s get a little more field film on each episode next year please
I love these guys and all of their videos are 🔥.. get ‘em Donnie! 👊🏽
You just see the relief on Jeff's face when they found his bull. Great video and I can feel Donnie's pain walking down those rocks too!
Congrats Jeff on recovering that bull. The relief when it is actually for is incredible
So glad this happens twice a week!! It carries me through.
It never ceases to amaze me how a perfect shot can be so difficult to recover. You do everything right, but it requires perseverance and know how to not give up and find the animal. Props to you guys for doing the right thing!
Nicely done!! Glad to see the bull recovered!
Finding your Bull always brings a great many emotions. Hard to describe the relief and everything else that follows. So glad you found your bull. Awesome Elk Jeff :))
Great format love the 2 videos a week and awesome content. Keeps the drive going thanks guys!
This is by far the highlight of our week, and 2 episodes to learn all kinds of tips! Thank you guy’s for this!
So glad Jeff recovered the bull. Love the little bit of field-dressing footage. It doesn't feel right to skip all that, that tired video, sitting on a log, eating a sandwich. That's it. So satisfying.
Glad they found the elk. There's nothing like walking right past a downed animal that holed up to lie down to figure out what just happened. Another great episode!
I like this year’s format. Keep it up guys, really enjoy this series every year.
Another great episode! Is it Tuesday yet? Thanks again for putting these together!
Our family continues to thoroughly enjoy the destination elk series. Great to see the Skousen Brothers get a tag notched. Really enjoy those 2.
Thank you again for another great episode. Looking forward to the next one. Congratulations to the Skousen Boys on their nice bull.
It’s great to see all the different groups at once. Helps you see how elk hunting can be so different and change so fast. All the highs and lows in 30 minutes. From killing an elk to hiking deep and far for nothing.
Good job sorting out a complicated blood trail with bulls running everywhere, and nice job of find the arrow in the tree. Great hunt!!!
Congrats to Jeff. You just never know how an elk will take the arrow and bleed. Couldn’t have made a better shot. Nice job staying with it and finding the bull.
Skousens know their stuff. Enjoy seeing their well trained horses too. No rodeo loading them up with elk. Mr Ford schools us with his calling skills. Great stuff
I like that we get a feel for what is actually going on In the hunt. The length and detail in the series helps immensely.
It's cool the Skousens were able to find that arrow up in the tree. What a great recovery. You never know how far they will go!
Donnie's dad jokes hit different in the mountains, everything is better when you are in the mountains!
The dead of winter had its grips on us and now we have something to entertain us. Thank you
Even watching the video, the anticipation while trying to find that elk was amazing. The bloodied arrow stuck in the tree was something else.
Glad Jeff found his elk ! Love that Cory and Donnie are doing the recaps at the end of episode I missed that last year .
So glad the twins were able to find the bull. Great dad joke Donnie.
Well that was a relief to a nail biting cliff hanger, and find his arrow stuck in the tree was icing on the cake to a great hunt. Congrats!!
The highs and lows of elk hunting. Really appreciate the honest videos because there’s a lot of slow days but it’s part of the game
These episodes are perfect length to watch during lunch break!
Great lesson in this episode, thanks. No two hunts are the same. No two elk are the same. No two shots are the same, even though shot placement might be. The beauty and chaos of hunting elk is that there is no normal. Perfect shot on a great bull and it didn't do "normal". Glad they located it!
It is amazing how elk have such a will to survive even after a lethat shot. Great job Jeff!
That bull is a good looker and finding the arrow in the tree was really cool. Plus Donnie rocked it again.
Congratulations Jeff. Great bull. finding your arrow was a bonus
Enjoying the season immensely. The Skousens get it done and are a fun team to follow. Really enjoy the "here is our plan" segments before they go after it.
Glad to see they found their bull. Crazy how that arrow flew into that tree. Can't wait for more. Thanks guys
Finding the arrow like that after is pretty amazing. Glad they found the bull!
Shows just how good of a shot Jeff is! Steep uphill, and he makes it look easy!
Donnie the dad joke's are great but this week mega hurts!!! was priceless.
Glad to see team was able to safely recover the elk. Always difficult with little to no blood trail. Kudos to sticking with it.
Thanks for making the cold boring days of winter just a little more tolerable.
Glad Jeff found his bull! Crazy how sometimes they don't bleed much! One could get away from you and be dead right over the next ridge.
A pass thru shot and and than still stuck in a tree. So enjoyable to watch all you guys
Congratulations Jeff, the worst feeling of hunting is not finding blood, my last bull didn’t bleed a drop, thankfully he only went 80 yards. Love Elk101!
Guys...great job. Thanks for being so real. A great source of encouragement and hope for the rest of us.
I appreciate how real your episodes are. Nothing fake about them.
LoL. Love the story of the arrow stuck in the tree
A lot of people take Donny's jokes for granite, but I think they rock!
So close. Glad to see that the Skousen's found the bull. Blood seems so connected to whether there is a low entry or exit - otherwise just bleeds into the cavity.
Great episode! I'm glad that Jeff found his bull. It is definitely easy to miss something and to get confused during the "chaos." Love the strategy for success on this episode.
Having hunted a bunch of years, and harvested elk many of the years (in early rifle season), I still feel like there is so much to learn. Thanks for the lessons.
That’s awesome you found your arrow in the tree. I agree with Jeff, it suck’s loosing an animal. Congrats Jeff…you guys did a great job all the way through!!
Crazy to see the energy the arrow still has after a pass through.
Congratulations Jeff on a great bull! All you guys remind me that patience and perseverance is a crucial element to hunting.
Great shot by Jeff. Pass through and getting the arrow stuck in the tree is pretty cool.
Watching this seasons hunt series is getting me pumped for 2023 elk hunt.
Congrats on the bull Jeff and also finding the arrow up in the tree!! Snapping a quick pick from your vantage point is a great one! Thanks guys!
Great looking bull Jeff. Sweet finding that arrow in the tree like that!
Great job and congratulations on a beautiful bull! Solid dad joke Donnie 😂
I can’t wait to see you guys pull this elk out of the water! It’s always an adventure getting an elk out of the mountains.
So pumped they found that bull! I love the ones with character!
Congrats Jeff on a great shot! Glad you were able to find it quickly even with no blood.
What a way to find his arrow! Even better was his shot! How fun!
It's nice having a show that shows the ups and downs of chasing elk.
It is so easy to doubt yourself in those situations, good work sticking with it and finding that bull!
Great shot on that bull jeff!!
That was a good piece of luck to find that arrow in the tree.
Love the dad jokes Donnie. Keep ‘em coming!
That arrow in the tree had my interest lol. Great episode
Skousen brothers are elk killing machines. Congrats Jeff on another nice bull
Great episode. I have felt the pains that the Skousens' were feeling. Definately from a low to high. Glad they found him.
Some of the highest highs and also some of the lowest lows. Gotta love elk hunting! My favorite line of the series is when Lenny said “elk hunting is either super easy or super tough.” Cause ain’t that the truth!
Great work catching up with that bull!!! Congrats Jeff!! Always helps to have a lot of eyes and feet on the ground when one tries to get away!!!
Awesome hunt, got to be nothing more mentally challenging than tracking an elk with minimal sign, and nothing more soothing than finding that beast laid to rest! Great episode men!! Btw, your cliff hangers are working!!
Cory and Donnie do a great job with all this material, I look forward to these videos every week
Again I absolutely love the different teams design. So cool to see the different terrain's, styles and friendships. Elk101 is the best on youtube.
Had me fooled with the arrow in the tree as the headliner for the video 😂 Great bull and episode!
The majestic of the arrow flight even with pass through. I like the 2 episode a week. So ready to get back into the mnts..
congrats to Jeff. love the show. great tips. thanks
I love how you show step by step entire hunt. Amazing footage. Thank you
Great job Jeff, very cool how the arrow was in the tree.
Great job on finding that bull. Emotions can go up and down so quickly with track jobs like that.
Another great V5 episode🙌🏼 Congratulations to Jeff, BBD!!! Each episode continues to get better and better. Thanks guys
Great topic for the strategy for success. Pure Elevation becoming more and more entertaining! Good job Jeff.
I really liked the tips for success! Using your phone to take a picture of where the elk ran is a great idea and I’ve never thought of that!
Glad they found the bull! Wounding an animal sucks so I'm glad he was able to find it.
So excited for Jeff! Glad he made that shot, incredible elk hunting! Love this season!
Having a team to track is always so good. Glad for buddies willing to drop things to help out!
That was pretty cool to see the twins find that bull. Great strategy to grid when there is lack of blood.
Interesting new approach with no calling, and just a quiet walk in and then raking! Killer footage guys!
Awesome! So glad they found the bull!!
This episode hits home with me from my experience this year on my first elk hunt ever. I was hunting in Colorado on my first elk hunt ever. After 8 long days of putting on a lot of miles and elevation, I finally saw my first elk. I stumbled upon a few bulls hitting a wallow in a small Aspen patch and a bull popped out and started bugling. (A first for me so that was awesome!) Once he was out of view, I made my way down to get into position. The bull was out of sight when I got into position but we knew where they all were. My caller started with a couple cow calls and BOOM, a bull started running out of the Aspen patch, straight at me. He veered off to my right but was still closing the distance fast until he didn't see any cows where he heard them. By this time he was at 4 YARDS, broadside, and I put ALL of my sights behind the shoulder and let it rip! Well we had great blood for about 130 yds and then, nothing. We looked util late into the night and came up with nothing. We gave him enough time to expire before we searched but somehow he snuck away on us. We had a dog tracker the next day and continued to look for 4 days after that and came up empty. Needless to say, this was the most epic hunting experience of my life, it was also the most disappointing. I feel for the Skousen and having to notch their tag without recovering their elk. This experience has just lit a huge fire in me for elk hunting and it is now my favorite thing to do for sure. Thank you Elk101 for your content that you provide. It deffinatlly helped me prepare for my last trip and I pick up another little thing to use for future elk trips!
These episodes help lessen the itch for fall. Can't wait for the real thing again.
Amazing that they even found Jeff's arrow! Looking forward to the next one!
Donnie got me on the dad joke. I thought he was just an old guy whining about the price of air when he dropped the dad joke on me then followed it up with deflate!! Well played sir
Love the return of Donny’s Dad Jokes this season. Missed them last year!
I love seeing these hunts in different states and landscapes. Keep up the great work 👍
Great tip to give the bull time to die .
So many of us get excited and try to rush to the spot and bump them.. patience is huge
