Yes the bull is huge but that's nothing compared to the smile your talk with kids at the end gave me. So happy you guys chose to raise your kids yourself and not let some corrupt teachers union raise them. My kids were in 4th and 2nd grade when covid hit. We never sent them back, they learn school lessons till lunch, then they are on the farm till super. Real learning takes place in person, in nature, doing something that will provide for you, till the day you can no longer do it yourself. Congrats Lee and Tiffany, you're one of the few, raising the next generation of leaders
you can just tell that something special is going on with both children they are not your average run of the mill kids in todays society polite well spoken smart , the leaves didnt fall far from the tree with these two youngins the world needs more great parents like you two
Intentionally avoided clicking this vid since it popped into my feed because I knew what this was.. for whatever reason I clicked it today and 30 seconds in confirmed what I already knew. For those of us who live up here in the Yellowstone area know that Montana also does this with Bison. Rancher opens the gate and tells you which one to kill depending upon how much money you put down. No hate here. If that's your thing knock yourself out. There is, however, some disappointment just because the casual viewer clicking this is going to think this is elk hunting. This is elk harvesting. There's a huge difference. If you're after elk hunting vids go over and watch Jason Phelps in the Oregon mountains or Randy Newberg in the Idaho backcountry. Go watch those men and women with 7 to 14 day packs on purifying water in the creek just hoping to run into a herd. They will be "hunting."
Ik wym man, the area he’s hunting is PACKED with bulls like that, buddy of mine was lucky enough to kill one before they made that private land you have to buy a tag for… so urban due to the fact that where he’s hunting is literally surrounded by 2 huge coal mines/towns… locals see this bull all the time, we just left him because he’s always by the coal mine😂😂 kinda like a work decoration. We knew someone killed him after the last week of September when he never showed again…
What an awesome video, from the family and friends to the ups and downs of hunting a once in a lifetime bull you captured it perfectly! Thanks for sharing!
What was cool is the you were able to see the bull several times before a shot presented itself, that makes it very exciting. Homeschooling is the only way, it's awesome!
Sad to see so many negative comments among "so called hunters" why can't hunters just be happy for other hunters. So much jealously just makes you look petty, selfish and immature. We need to support each other, we get enough hate from anti's don't need it from fellow hunters.
Beautiful bull...but how did he die with an arrow through his hind quarter? Elk will live for years with that arrow in them like that. Did you end up rifling him or sticking him again?
Great video!!!!! Beautiful country out there too. One of these days I’m gonna hunt them big elk out there maybe! Makes sense what you said about having to hunt them huge herd bulls alot different than them satellite bulls that you call up bugling and stuff.
This particular ranch has a series of fences those do not get out of there without somebody paying a very stiff price. Bowl that public gland does not have a kind of rack like that. 13 year old doesn’t have anything or any other animal to have to defend himself against. This is a giant high fence Elk.
Please don't put comments out there unless you know the whole truth. That ranch has typical barbed wire cattle fence. Elk can jump it like it is nothing. Just like deer do. That ranch also borders forest (public land). We'll see what this one scores, but the reigning Pope and Young typical bull was taken approximately 6 - 7 miles away from there on public land. It is an area of Montana that is starting to have some giant elk. It is also an area of Montana where they don't have a lot of natural predators. Part of the reason they get so big.
Lee is a tremendous shot but i will never be an advocate of those kind of shots on game I think a max of 40 yards should be the limit if you can't get them with in that range you shouldn't shoot
@@PatrickBlack-q1n 40 yards with a bow is a max shot back in 1985( I know because that’s what equipment allowed) todays bows shoot smoother, faster, sights are precision, releases , laser, range finders, carbon fiber arrows, precision nocks, precision arrow building. All of this translates into better shooting at distance. Today for most archers their set up is like a scoped rifle. Then you add years of experience like Lee who practices year round shooting in ones yard and 3d archery etc all add up for ethical longer shots. It’s the same as back in the 50’s a lever action 30-30 with iron sights put a 100 yard shot about max for most shooters. Fast forward to today’s precision rifles even a moderately good rifle makes a 300-500 yard shot an average shot especially out west. I get it for someone out east a 40 yard shot with a bow might as well be a mile. Todays hunters out west because of todays better equipment easily shoot out to 70 yards with precision. My friends and I sight in at 35-40yards. My two daughters I limit them to 35 yards because of their skill and equipment. Yes there are some who should not shoot past 20 yards and there are plenty with rifles capable of 500 yrs shot but the hunter is not. The distance someone decides to shoot is up to them not the committee of they. Each person should know their max before they start to hunt. Sounds like you have yours, but yours or my capabilities doesn’t decide what someone else’s capabilities should be. Like you I have my opinion on what shot I’d take and look at a shot like this one Lee took but in the end it’s his hunt for good or bad. Most hunters I know have made the wrong decision or a poor shot because of adrenaline, weather, wanting to get the big one. All of these guys including myself have learned from those mistakes. Hunting will never be perfect, as it should be.
@moneyandtimefreedom3352 you are certainly entitled to your opinion right or wrong as I am with mine even with the new technology the bow is a close range hunting weapon i have hunted long enough to know better maybe someday you will too
You don't need a high fence in eastern montana. It's all locked up and pay to play. Us natives don't get to hunt here anymore. Sad. Lived here all my life love to hunt and can't do it anymore. These elk never get pressured
Class guy, class family, still hunting whether public or private, world needs more good people like this and less people that care so much about criticizing and making false claims. Thanks Lee and Tiffany for sharing your experiences with us.
He worked his ass off to get to where he's at bro when he first moved to Iowa they had nothing about to piss in a window to throw it out of and he made it he's successful and he can do it if we were successful and we could do it you damn bet your ass we would too
I’ve never understood the hate about hunting private land. I’ve never done it personally but if I could I would only do it. Why put up with people who don’t have any respect for their fellow hunter. Can’t tell you how many times I have had someone screw up a hunt intentionally. People just have to be negative now days.
Amazing bulll... congratulations I just want to know if the meat was still good?? Leaving an animal that big overnight even in snow usual doesn't work very well for recovery of the meat
I would also "KEEP YOUR FINGERS CROSSED", with that TERRIBLE SHOT threw the rear hind.....ewwwwwwww SO LUCKY!~! (YOU need to have Tiff hunt MORE and you stay and watch the kids!)
Crybabies?? No we just have balls and are not sheep that just put up with bullshit, especially from some coward who makes a living shooting his tame deer on his own farm qnd videos it like he is special. He is special that's for sure. Grow a pair y.. b....
@Shedhunter1 do you even know what Coward means? How is he a coward? Because he left everything, moved to Iowa, took a huge risk and became popular and successful? So he's a coward because he has put in the hard work and created property that produces huge bucks? Someone's jealous.
@@lrleslie4542Because he passes up bulls and let's them grow then goes and hunts them down, that's a strike against him? Just because others can't do that, why is that his fault? He put in the hard work to be able to do these things. Became a successful hunter, what's wrong with that?
You no nothing of my success. I've hunted over 45 years on public ground, and taken 6 bulls over 380 , plus many more over 350. I hunt 30 miles in by horseback. I have nobody scouting for me, nobody doing shit. Canned hunt , and just what do you have?
I'm not gloating about anything. But, I do not appreciate being told that I am jealous of anything these two have done. Yes, I am proud of all the success me and my buddies have had. We are not rich. Just blue collar guys that love to hunt. You are more than welcome to come join us. Won't cost you a dime. I would not trade a minute of all the great times we have had. So if I gloat a bit, so be it...
I think Sheehy’s ranch is near Bozeman. I’m still voting for Sheehy. I dot care what he charges for an elk hunt. Don’t believe Tester’s ads anyone who has a large ranch with good elk hunting leases it out.
Nice! So how do you get these tags every year? I'm a nonres too and have to wait too long in between to get out in these areas... What outfitter were you with , THANKS!
@@moneyandtimefreedom3352 I didn't realize LOT could be sold in MT. Thought it was for LO only? Make sense. Thanks. I know NM does this but it's $$$$ but good hunting.
Bro come on put a real Broadhead on the Arrow everybody knows there's been more game lost to damn gun range Broadhead and Mechanicals I'll just say it it ain't if it's when they fail and with a big ass single bevel Broadhead you ain't got to worry about that and I'm not seeing your arrows late 550 or 600 grains you can run a victory VAP Elite shaft 250 spine hunter green insert 150 grain head that's 250 up front and the arrow weighs 455 460 at 28 1/2 in straw for me so carbon to carbon is 26 and 13/16
Private land bulls and public land bulls are entirely different creatures.
and $50k tags lol

Congratulations Lee!! You are a class act!! All the pathetic haters need to go back to their video games in the basement!!
Congratulations on a giant. Love the videos, keep it up.👍
.. awesome bull buddy 👍✌..
Massive bull mate
How did he only go 150 yards that looked like a gut shot ?
One lung and liver. Maybe a little far back but with the way he was quartering away no to far off.
Wow congrats amazing shot on that hammer
Awesome bull🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Congrats, 🤝💯 Lee
What an absolute stud bull! Love the video!!!
The bull was incredible! The clowns were sickening!
Beautiful bull...but how did he die with an arrow through his hind quarter? Elk will live for years with that arrow in them like that. Did you end up rifling him or sticking him again?
Hell of a shot

That was a terrible shot. I would hope most hunters would not put the end game ahead of ethics like this.
That thing is an absolute GIANT! Congrats cheers from Montana

The king of losing bulls in Montana. Last few years were a wreck
Camper in the backround. Tame elk for montana
You are just jealous
Congrats lee on that bull
Congrats Lee , what an absolute stud !!!! Cool to see the management pay off as well
That is a bull of a life time congrats and you are doing this right truck trailer wife and kids that is the way i hunt !
You waste all the meat?!
Money can buy anything inside a fence.

You sunk it right in there, right into the guts. Terrible shot choice, but hey gotta get that shot on video for those clicks.
and there you came, justa clickin! 😁

Would never risk a 400” bull with pos expandable 🙄
He got lucky

I was concerned about the meat being any good after a shot like that and the temperature being to high over the night. Be a shame if it spoiled.
I was thinking the same thing. Like great bull but seems like it would’ve gotten spoiled from temps and a gut shot non the less
It definitely spoiled they just want the head and video
Beautiful animal but a tractor at the kill site?
Got away with crappy shot!
He worked his ass off to get to where he's at bro when he first moved to Iowa they had nothing about to piss in a window to throw it out of and he made it he's successful and he can do it if we were successful and we could do it you damn bet your ass we would too

Try 50k
Does he ever hunt public?
Not successfully
Your guide did a great job in getting you on him so many times, What did a bull like that cost you?
So much is about the wall hanger... Not about the experience of actually hunting...
I hate the pic for this video.. sitting 10 ft behind to make a giant bull look bigger is ridiculous
Amazing bulll... congratulations
I just want to know if the meat was still good?? Leaving an animal that big overnight even in snow usual doesn't work very well for recovery of the meat
Meat was fine. Cool nights and quickly getting hide off and hung up. They didn't lose any meat
no way at least the side on the ground wasn't spoiled
@JoelMurcin they left it overnight so they didn't get the hide off quickly... that's why I asked
What a horrible shot they're lucky they found that bull.
Stiffer than a board - doesn’t give a crap about the meat. Hunting for the wrong reasons.
