Cool and scary all in one!!.
great video
what a couple of morons...and then they post a video of them doing moronic things.
Poor hunting from the first shot, which he should never had taken in the first place...the rest is just fodder for their stupidity.
What's wrong with people!? Thanks dumb dumb, you've represented us well!
I don't see anything wrong with the first shot - front on chest shot?? - but when he was approaching the downed bull, once he saw it's head was still up, that's the time for another shot, not walking right up to it - that was just asking for trouble.Quote:

Idiot. He even says twice that he knows what hes doing is wrong.
When did they change hunter orange requirements in Quebec? last time I was there it was mandatory, I'm assuming this video was made in P.Q. What an idiot to walk up on a bull moose obviously still alive and not giving it a finishing shot!
Its in BC. Its literally the first thing the guy says.Quote:

The video is in English.
He states the whole time that he really should not have walked up that close, he should not have...
He had a misfire when he tried to finish off the moose, that would suck. I know a guy who had a misfire when staring down a big black bear at 15 yards on the ground, lets just say he said the click was a lot louder to him then a bang would have been. This friend actually put that gun away for the week and went back to a lever 30-30 with sights rather than risk that with his 30-06 again.
My mistake, I had the volume turned off so as not to disturb my wife's concentration on the soap she was watching, as all the captioning was French I just assumed the audio would be as well, the misfire was possibly a lack of a cartridge in the chamber?
no...empty casing....he never cycled in a live round before he approached the moose....moron.Quote:

Great video...
I don't think he is a moron at all; sometimes life happens....no-one is perfectand I am sure he is posting this video so others can learn from it, no need tobash him/them. If anything I am impressed with them for having the dignity toshow how it really went down, very easy to pass judgment from the comfort ofyour home.
Thanks for posting
His demeanour as he's narrates the hunt and the fact the knows he's doing stupid things but does them anyway means he's a moron...there is no self-deprecation, no 'you shouldn't do this", no lessons learned.
It wasn't a 'life happens' he made it 'happen'. Yes he is a moron.
It's a lot easier to look back at the video and say 'that's stupid' - not so easier when you're on the ground.Quote:

I'd put that more on a level of getting excited and making questionable decisions than being an idiot.
I'll concede...he's a moron for posting a movie that makes him look like an idiot...Quote:

I think he was lucky and somebody was smiling down on him . LOL

I know of a guy who racked all the ammo out of his gun on to the ground with out pulling the trigger.
Dumb things have happened, yes he was stupid for linking yourself to it online but then again it does show what might happen if you do things wrong.
I agree. If he made a mistake admit it on the video. It's like my friend says, not all monkeys are circus material!Quote:

Explain how any gun would go click when pulling the trigger without being first cocked . ?Quote:

That was a "How not to hunt…" video
They could use this video in the hunter training courses...
He learned nothing b/c he said at the end, "that was so cool"
Lol. We had an older lad that used to hunt with us do it to. Emptied the whole tube on his 30-30. He swore he fired every shot. Buck was happy he didn't.Quote:

If you are hitting him dead center of the brisket you will have a hard time not to hit both lungs and have a good chance of wiping out the arteries at the top of the heart.Quote:

No doubt in my mind he racked either a dud or air but it was racked . You even see his shoulder move as he points the gun towards the ground and rack the third one .Quote:

Its one thing to have others think you are an idiot, it is quite another to open your mouth and confirm it. Posting a video is some whole other order of definition that is off the chart stupid.
Why is a Brisket shot not a good shot to take? Too many times you do not hit the vitals Oaknut. Too many places for the bullet to deflect off and out. I grew up in Nfld and hunted and shot a lot of Moose with my Dad watching. He would always say, watch him close, he will turn. Same thing with chasing him, give the animal some time to bleed, chances are he will lay down. Push him and see what happens, you know how much ground a spooked Moose can cover in the 10 mins before he dies.
It does not matter at all if it was a misfire or a misfeed, the gun went click so the gun was cocked, no big deal.Quote:

Most TV hunters should quit using bolt-action rifles. You rarely see one that can use a bolt rifle without looking awkward while doing it. Shoot - cycle - reacquire target, do not remove the rifle from your shoulder. It should be nearly automatic. The video never showed what happened with the second shooter after the shot, but I'd be embarrassed to put myself on TV working a bolt like the first guy. I would bet that his "misfire" was not a misfire at all but the result of mishandling the gun. The "click" sounded overly loud (sound-edited in) to me. Pretty coincidental to have a true equipment malfunction at such a bad moment. I think he opened the bolt enough to see if there was a shell in the chamber when he was walking up to the moose, decided that there was and closed the bolt. Then he pulled the trigger on an empty when the moose was getting up.
Someone (MikePal maybe) once posted a video of a guy in Europe shooting wild pigs with a Sauer or something of the like. He was an expert but his shooting routine is how a bolt action should be handled.
OK I found a similar video, same guy but not sure if it's the exact same video I mentioned above. TV hunters take note, use a bolt-action like this:
