Yukon Video: Longbow Hunters Come Face to Face With Monster Moose

In the 16-minute YouTube video below, Jason Hairston, founder of KUIU, and his father, Mike, embark on an amazing adventure to the Yukon Territory in pursuit of monster moose. As you’ll learn, Jason spent his youth learning from his dad how to shoot a longbow, make arrows, and hunt big game. 

The trip highlighted below follows the pair on what Mike describes as his top bucket list hunt. Jason has gifted Mike with a chance to fulfill a dream 50 years in the making. Together, they pursue moose with traditional wooden longbows, and the duo take the time to share the gift of their strong father-and-son relationship.

The video was filmed over a period of 10 days in the Yukon’s Mackenzie Mountains. It concludes with an in-your-face big bull encounter that puts Mike’s skills to the ultimate test.
