Not that I didn't have the utmost respect for you before, this video really showed me a lot about who you are and your outlook on life. It's incredible to see that hunter's still have so much respect for their prey. What a beautiful animal, my hat is off to you! And at least he left a couple nice sheds for you 😁 Much love from Oregon
You know I've been getting ready for a big Ohio whitetail I haven't seen one of your videos for a minute until now you and Jim shocky are hunting machines your so blessed to raise the deer that you do your incredible God bless America
Tim this is truly an an amazing episode...one that has touched my heart and changed the way I hunt. I respect you for what you do and how you do it. Say hello to Dumb Dumb for me when you see him...and, may he be 25 yards closer.
Wow...what an amazing video.....you know, sometimes the best hunting years are not the ones when we harvest a big buck but when stories like this happen that will live on for generations.....thanks for sharing....I enjoyed every minute of it
Well. You got the big antlers and beautiful photos of him, which you can enjoy for years. And that beautiful creature gets to live like you and enjoy life.🌲
There just some in life that makes your world turn. I'm 64 yrs old thus I 've let deer and big bucks go by for 7yrs this last season I look over and the second biggest buck that I knew of was across the field and said to myself it's time. The hole family came out to help get and load that buck up. By the time I walked back to the truck everybody there I looked up and seeing everybody there made tears rolling off my face. Grandson calls out 7 yrs papa. That when you know you love it.
Well if you we had 500 acres all fenced in with farm grown monsters to pick from we would have passed that as well. Yeah I’d have shot that in a heartbeat
Jack Mechak that’s what guys that can’t be patient and shoot the first thing that walks out says... nah I’m just joking and I used to be like that, when I was young, and impatient and learned that those does and young bucks will be back tomorrow and I’ll have plenty of chances to get them so unless I’m desperate for meat or I’m on an out of town trip I’ll usually wait if I’m in my usual hunting spots, which a couple years ago, luckily I checked my camera before I went hunting that afternoon and there was a MUCH larger mature “sway back” 8 point than the decent younger 8 point I was hunting for in that stand, (the bucks around here average 8 points as the main frame, sometimes you’ll see one with a kicker point or two) and that evening that smaller 8 point walked out, As I was watching him working a scrape I was thinking about if I wanted to shoot him or not because he came thru pretty regular (he was one of the main deer I had the most pictures of) and I turned my attention to the two does that was walking up the trail behind me (I was hunting on an old power line that hadn’t been cut in a few years and the brush had grown about 4-6ft high in the middle) and as I’m watching them I say I’m gonna go ahead and shoot that buck, well I turn around and he’s going back in the woods, 10 minutes later the monster I had one picture of stepped out and I dropped him at 100 yards with the 308, if it hadn’t been for my patience I wouldn’t have had the bigger reward of knowing I had that patience and took a good ole mature buck had more to show for it and a good bit more meat from the 200lb deer vs the 150lb deer and I seen good bucks before I had game cameras and learned there can be a much better, more mature deer right behind the one you would’ve shot.. and the point of what he was saying is that he’d shoot the deer this guy passed up because “it wasn’t quiet a shooter”
The fact that some of you are ignorant enough to try and claim that this is a high-fence preserve without knowing any facts about Tim Wells and his bowhunting ability or his ability to grow mature deer hurts me deep inside. Having a vast area to hunt, large amounts of foodplots, having great deer genetics, and simply putting the time and effort into growing these beautiful animals can result in growing several P&Y bucks a YEAR if you have the resources. Just because you don't shoot P&Y bucks regularly doesn't mean other people don't.
Amazing video i had a similar thing happen last year been chasing a buck for three years and finally got the chance to take him.He gave me shot after shot and i just admired that deer.I finally harvested him but that deer will always be remembered long after meat is eaten.to me this is bow hunting not just killing i can't wait to have my daughter and son with me watching wildlife and if they choose to hunt all the better.cheers
I'd get a cape and mount the sheds. I've watched you shoot, this was a pie shot for you. Incredible story! Awesome deer. All good things come from the Lord.
That reminds me Of something from a video from several years ago Jeff Foxworthy and realtree outdoors did a comedy hunting video called “incomplete deer hunter” and some of the skits in it they dressed up in deer costumes and had “preseason deer herd meetings” and other stuff and one thing the two bucks did before walking out in the field was they pulled their antlers off to look like does lol. You can find some of these scenes on RUclips.
Tim, I am a life long hunter and I liked your video. I can't believe some of the comments below by the anti hunters; they get their meat at the supermarket but they've never been to a slaughter house. I live on a farm and I have seen the carnage in those places many times. Unless these people are vegetarians, they are hypocrites.
What a nice video, long time story, and hunting adventure. Please keep these kinds of video'coming our way. So nice to have the wife with you through it all yet. Just an all around fortunate lad as I see it. By the way where are you located with such an early drop taking place? Hope to hear about this years hunts from you. Even any sheds found. Alot of us shed heads out here too. Thanks so much for sharing it all with all of us.
Where does this guy hunt, with piles of these giant bucks all over? I'd feel blessed to see a buck that sized just once in my life. This guy's got piles of um in a single field.
Awesome story.. there was an old 14 point at our familys orchard that several of us missed thru the years he was a very smart deer im sure he passed from old age none of us ever got him...
Will someone please tell me where places like this exist - with multiple monster deer casually walking out into a field? I've been hunting over 40 years and nothing I've ever experienced is even close. That "not quite a shooter" buck would be a monster where I hunt.
That's probably the most beautiful buck I could imigine mr Tim your the man I've said it before and me Jim shocky I've never heard of you being in columbus Ohio for or expo
Thanks for the great video. I hope to live when deer get that big in middle Georgia. In the 1920-1930 disease killed off almost all of the deer around here. it wasn't till the late 60's 70's that they relocated 60 deer to Ft. Gordon Ga, 60 to Burke co. 60 to Jefferson Co.and 60 to Washington Co. I see lots of deer but not giants like in your videos. I am sure with proper management and less disease like CWD I hope they will get there. Give Big Louie a wink for me
Mathews Triax No they get that big when you have a place in the right spot and you don’t shoot four year old deer !! The genetics on his place is awesome. The right food soybeans and age you you let em walk you have big deer You gotta let them get some age
I love shed hunting, after the hunting season is over. You get to spend more time in the woods and make a plan for next year. That was a great video Tim and I'm glad Sydney found this matching set. What a beautiful trophy
Am I The only one that's pissed about someone calling a deer dumb dumb? The deer should have been. Named King Because deer was huge compared to most bucks
I think its awesome at 8:38 when he says YOU MUST HAVE FORGOTTEN MY PROMISE I MADE & real quick back on DUM DUM he (DUM DUM) gives a WINK!!! like NOPE!!! I've not forgot I'm just a WISE OLE BLOAK!!!! LOL!!!
It was wonderful to see Syd's excitement and enthusiasm after shooting her first huge black bear in Canada. Thanks for sharing. I understand the need to disable remarks in certain videos...
I truly respect you Tim I watch this over and over even though he’s a monster it’s truly heartwarming to see how you let him go he was a truly amazing animal do you know what happened to him
Mr Wells I'm great full you or someone on your team saw my comment I mean it you and Mr Jim shockey are hunting machines we have a hunting expo in columbus Ohio around 1 January boy alot of people would like to meet you i would thanks answering hope your son stays healthy a hell of a athlete I've watched you from day one your the best
Lots of bucks get banged up from fighting 95 percent recover. Unless it has been shot there is no reason to shoot young deer with bumps and bruises. Let that deer smell you and see how injured he looks running off
Allot of times in places like texas colorado and hilly or mouintanous areas there are lots coyotes so you here it all the time even here in austin texas
A HUNTER'S NIGHTMARE.... a BIG mossyhorn staring RIGHT AT YOU... watching every twitch on your face as you realize.... "NOT TODAY" DANIEL Boone .... and off he goes enjoying every moment of it..😂
I love your videos but don’t understand what your talking about at 4:33. 40 years old???? Longest captive deer is like 25 years old. I highly doubt a deer which is free in nature can become 40 years old.
Not that I didn't have the utmost respect for you before, this video really showed me a lot about who you are and your outlook on life. It's incredible to see that hunter's still have so much respect for their prey. What a beautiful animal, my hat is off to you! And at least he left a couple nice sheds for you 😁 Much love from Oregon
You know I've been getting ready for a big Ohio whitetail I haven't seen one of your videos for a minute until now you and Jim shocky are hunting machines your so blessed to raise the deer that you do your incredible God bless America
Tim, you are a TRUE hunter. You share an emotional respect for your harvest and I think that's amazing. God bless ya. Pass it on!
"Harvest." Ha! I love that one. Just the same as plucking barley out the field!
I respect you Tim, your skill, and your respect for the animals is almost unheard of nowadays
Tim this is truly an an amazing episode...one that has touched my heart and changed the way I hunt. I respect you for what you do and how you do it. Say hello to Dumb Dumb for me when you see him...and, may he be 25 yards closer.
I honestly respect this man for letting a beautiful deer go. Although he was a monster. This man has the heart of a God. Truly respect him for this
"He's a 100 yards away, if he comes 25 more yards he's dead" 75 yard shot. I love you Tim. Lol
Wow...what an amazing video.....you know, sometimes the best hunting years are not the ones when we harvest a big buck but when stories like this happen that will live on for generations.....thanks for sharing....I enjoyed every minute of it
Well. You got the big antlers and beautiful photos of him, which you can enjoy for years. And that beautiful creature gets to live like you and enjoy life.🌲
Maybe the best video you've ever done in my opinion. Thanks Tim

What a tale, never even heard of deer getting that old, thanks for sharing the hunt even if it didn't end in a kill!
Ohh in some places they make it older
I'm a grown ass man, why am I getting so emotional about a deer
same wat the hell
Ikr
hey at least yer not the "hunter" that goes 'just shoot it already'
and yes I do hunt
Because brother....just like very few of us in this day and age... You have a real heart inside of you
@@shartley3602 awe 11
Dumb Dumb is a wonderful video story. Very well done. I am glad I happened onto your site.
I'd take that, "Not Quite A Shooter" any day
Lowskie same
Yeah wtf
Well if you we had 500 acres all fenced in with farm grown monsters to pick from we would have passed that as well. Yeah I’d have shot that in a heartbeat

I don’t think he is a shooter and I’m 13, on our farm we shoot 140 over
Come to this video every couple years, brings tears to my eyes!
The true gift of the storyteller is to live a few stories worth the telling.

This was an awsome video had my heart pumping... Would never see that in Maine... Biggest bachelor crew I've ever seen is 3
Maybe not so dumb, probably beat his antlers against a tree to drop em early so you wouldn't tag him Tim...
😂
Ahhh. You are one of those guys that think stupid shit like that
That reminds me Of something from a video from several years ago Jeff Foxworthy and realtree outdoors did a comedy hunting video called “incomplete deer hunter” and some of the skits in it they dressed up in deer costumes and had “preseason deer herd meetings” and other stuff and one thing the two bucks did before walking out in the field was they pulled their antlers off to look like does lol.

Hahaha!! It could be true!!
Chris West I’ve watched that!! Lol!!
This is my kind of hunting, I love white tail deer so much
Just a great deer hunting big buck story !!! Thanks !!!!!
Great story Tim, dumb dumb outsmarted everyone. When you first said dumb dumb is entering the field I was waiting for my brother to step out
Best hunting story I’ve ever watched.
Tim, did you see that big deer look at you, and wink, and say Tim, that day might not never come, lol.
Tim, I am a life long hunter and I liked your video. I can't believe some of the comments below by the anti hunters; they get their meat at the supermarket but they've never been to a slaughter house.

I get meat at the store but I shoot them to or try lol
I do kill some and my uncle cuzin and dad do to
What a nice video, long time story, and hunting adventure. Please keep these kinds of video'coming our way. So nice to have the wife with you through it all yet. Just an all around fortunate lad as I see it.
By the way where are you located with such an early drop taking place?
Hope to hear about this years hunts from you. Even any sheds found. Alot of us shed heads out here too. Thanks so much for sharing it all with all of us.
I've never understood the drop tines obsession until that first buck, beautiful symmetry
Where does this guy hunt, with piles of these giant bucks all over? I'd feel blessed to see a buck that sized just once in my life. This guy's got piles of um in a single field.
I have a lot of respect for your films, class at it's best, and no "face in the camera" Bull Dung.
This is awesome...thanks for sharing Tim...🏹🦌😉
Awesome story.. there was an old 14 point at our familys orchard that several of us missed thru the years he was a very smart deer im sure he passed from old age none of us ever got him...
Will someone please tell me where places like this exist - with multiple monster deer casually walking out into a field? I've been hunting over 40 years and nothing I've ever experienced is even close. That "not quite a shooter" buck would be a monster where I hunt.
Private land and food plots to bring them in for months before you shoot them from your lazy boy in a tuff shed!!
That's probably the most beautiful buck I could imigine mr Tim your the man I've said it before and me Jim shocky I've never heard of you being in columbus Ohio for or expo
Thanks for the great video. I hope to live when deer get that big in middle Georgia.

I am sure with proper management and less disease like CWD I hope they will get there. Give Big Louie a wink for me
Bucks don't get that big from being dumb.
Mathews Triax No they get that big when you have a place in the right spot and you don’t shoot four year old deer !! The genetics on his place is awesome. The right food soybeans and age you you let em walk you have big deer You gotta let them get some age
who else thought the ending was kind of sad
Great story, lots of respect to you all! True blessings to have the experiences. Keep us updated
I love shed hunting, after the hunting season is over. You get to spend more time in the woods and make a plan for next year. That was a great video Tim and I'm glad Sydney found this matching set. What a beautiful trophy
Not sure why ,but I like dumbdumb.he has nerves of steel. Extremely calm cool and collected.
It's not a horn it's an antler
Kudos. Now that was a damn good video.
Am I The only one that's pissed about someone calling a deer dumb dumb? The deer should have been. Named King Because deer was huge compared to most bucks
I think you are the only one.... so....STOP thinking too hard..
That buck has and may be still spreading his geans for you Tim . Great story god bless
I think its awesome at 8:38 when he says YOU MUST HAVE FORGOTTEN MY PROMISE I MADE & real quick back on DUM DUM he (DUM DUM) gives a WINK!!! like NOPE!!! I've not forgot I'm just a WISE OLE BLOAK!!!! LOL!!!
Great story and a happy ending dum dum still live another day.
That was a terrific story. I had chills. Too bad he dropped his antlers. I wish i could experience what you saw.
It’s not always about the kill sometimes it’s about enjoying the hunt .
It was wonderful to see Syd's excitement and enthusiasm after shooting her first huge black bear in Canada. Thanks for sharing. I understand the need to disable remarks in certain videos...
Is that normal? Dec 15 shed? I know some drop early, what state, got me wanting to look over some fields
Chris M down here where I hunt in south ms, the deer aren’t even in rut yet by that time..
Fantastic story!! Thx man
I truly respect you Tim I watch this over and over even though he’s a monster it’s truly heartwarming to see how you let him go he was a truly amazing animal do you know what happened to him
What a great story to share!
Mr Wells I'm great full you or someone on your team saw my comment I mean it you and Mr Jim shockey are hunting machines we have a hunting expo in columbus Ohio around 1 January boy alot of people would like to meet you i would thanks answering hope your son stays healthy a hell of a athlete I've watched you from day one your the best
Awesome video Tim!!
What a beautiful deer!
Man what a great story Tim.
I name my deer too !! I call them "FOOD" !!
"We saw dumb dumb chasing does " 😂😂😂😂 lol
8:39 deer fucking winks at him as soon as he talks about a promise
Awesome video 🤘
I hope we can see him in year 11. Wow what a true Giant.
Did he say 40 years old?
Wonderful story! Great video of Beautiful Whitetail Bucks... Has anyone ever shot him since?
should have taken the wounded 8 point
Brad Van
Always take out anything wounded.
He didn't look wounded to me
Brad Van if he was a real hunter he would of harvest the 8 pointer. He is too dumb too know. Not to let him mate, and destroy a heard.with gang green
@@Life-of-Bluegrass_Music gangrene wont hurt anything but the deer its in and isnt likely when its so cold
Lots of bucks get banged up from fighting 95 percent recover. Unless it has been shot there is no reason to shoot young deer with bumps and bruises. Let that deer smell you and see how injured he looks running off
Why did this just now get put in a recommends
I was just typing that's awesome right when you said that's awesome.
Great decision. I did the same thing last year. Haven't regretted it.
TIM, did you ever finish the story on Dumb Dumb? Did he die by the hands of your arrow or another means??
like your videos,,,,,,,how do you get out of your deer stand(late eve) without scaring all the deer...
So what happend to dum dum ? He still out there or did yer get him ?
Speechless, great story!
Great story. I'm glad you have the right heart for a hunter. Gotta go, now. I have something in my eye.
Hey bud, where are you from? I'd love to take a trip up there sometime and hunt. You've got a lot of beautiful animals.
Lol
Akabrennan19
Yes those high fense deer farms produce some really big racks.
You can see the genetic trait of forked G2 in a lot of bucks that he shows on his property.. pretty cool!
one of the best videos i have ever seen. im glad dum-dum dropped his antlers where you could find them
Awesome buck and story
Phone were they not spooked by the pack of coyotes or wolves?
+Smokey Dawg Phone bone.
Allot of times in places like texas colorado and hilly or mouintanous areas there are lots coyotes so you here it all the time even here in austin texas
How do can you tell Dumb dumb from the other deer?
It's a antler not a horn
Antlers are horns,
Mathews Halon 6 no there not antlers grow in velvet horns don’t
AN antler, not "a" antler. ;)
The Outdoor Channel antlers are horns. I guess it isn't called a rack?
technically "horns" are hollow
A normal deer lives to be 8-10 years old
So whatever happened 2 Dumb Dumb ?? Did you ever harvest him or was he ever found dead
Awesome buck brother..
That was like a magic story. Wow....
A HUNTER'S NIGHTMARE.... a BIG mossyhorn staring RIGHT AT YOU... watching every twitch on your face as you realize.... "NOT TODAY" DANIEL Boone .... and off he goes enjoying every moment of it..😂
Where in the US is this?
AWESOME story WELL DONE
Drinking game: take a shot each time Tim says "my way."
Are these free range or pen deer?
Great video, narration was perfect as always
Did you ever get him?
You said 40!!!! I did not think they got that old
Am a bit confused does the antlers just fall of them self or its loss thru fighting could some one please tell me
Kevin Chetram they fall off every year and grow new ones when they first grow them they have felt like skin on them called velvet
Every Jan. the loose them.
They lose them after all their testosterone drops from age cold and the does all being bred.
its an antler! not a horn!!
I love your videos but don’t understand what your talking about at 4:33. 40 years old???? Longest captive deer is like 25 years old. I highly doubt a deer which is free in nature can become 40 years old.
There are some deer that live up to 16 years and even older
I have learned about that from Kentucky Afield aka "KYAfield" here on U2b
@tim wells when you saw those illegiles in Texas you didint happen to be in the rio grand valley did you?
