In this episode of Realtree Outdoors, season 11, David and Tyler head out to the Milk River in northwestern Montana for a hunting trip. The Milk River is known for its abundant wildlife, particularly whitetail deer and mule deer. David and Tyler are excited to see what the river has in store for them.
The episode begins with David and Tyler driving to the Milk River. They discuss their plans for the trip, which include setting up tree stands and hunting both in the early morning and late afternoon. They also talk about the challenges of hunting in wetlands, which can be difficult terrain to navigate.
Once they arrive at the Milk River, David and Tyler begin setting up their tree stands. They choose locations that offer the best view of the surrounding area and are also close to the game trails they've spotted. As they climb up into their stands, they talk about the importance of being quiet and still while waiting for game to appear.
As morning breaks, David and Tyler settle in to wait for deer to come into view. They observe several mule deer grazing in a nearby field, but decide to hold out for a whitetail buck. Time passes slowly as they scan the surrounding area for any sign of deer movement.
In the late morning, David and Tyler take a break from hunting to explore the Milk River. They wade through the shallow water and spot several ducks and geese, but are careful not to disturb the area too much since they plan on returning later in the afternoon to hunt ducks.
When they return to their tree stands, David and Tyler notice a group of whitetail deer making their way towards them. They get into position and wait for the deer to get close enough for a clean shot. After a tense few minutes of waiting, David takes aim and fires a shot. The deer sprints away into the forest, and David and Tyler wait a few minutes before heading off to track it.
After a successful tracking job, David and Tyler find the wounded deer and David makes a clean kill shot. They discuss the importance of tracking and the ethics of hunting, noting that it's important to respect the animals and make sure not to waste any part of the animal.
As the sun starts to set, David and Tyler pack up their gear and head back to the Milk River for some duck hunting. They set up a blind in the wetlands and wait for the ducks to arrive. A few rounds of shots later, they’ve got a healthy collection of ducks and are ready to call it a day.
The episode ends with David and Tyler reflecting on their successful hunt, noting the beauty of the Milk River and the satisfaction of a good day of hunting. The hunt may be over, but they already can't wait for the next adventure.
In this episode of Realtree Outdoors, David and Tyler show both the patience required for successful hunting, as well as the importance of tracking and ethical hunting practices. The scenery and wildlife of the Milk River provide an incredible backdrop to the episode, making it a must-watch for any hunting enthusiast.
