Officially time to kick off the '26 hunting season, this video marks the beginning of a new year. Starting with a montage that looks back on the spring and summer so far --- the bucks are big, the action is fast, and hunting looks bright going into opening day. From there, Mike Reed delivers an exciting update about Alaska. Going on his first ever moose hunt, he lays out how he plans to execute a DIY experience with some of his closest friends. A 2 week adventure lays ahead and inevitably there will be stories to tell at its conclusion. Following that we head to Tennessee for the 3 day velvet hunt. Longtime team members Lee Bridges and Jeremiah Roberson tackled the heat and got mobile in their strategy. Slipping right into the bedroom, Lee's top buck makes his move in the hardwoods crossing paths with the first arrow release of the season. Thanks for joining us for another year and best of luck to you whenever opening day arrives in your neck of the woods.
