Video summary

  1. 0:00Joe crosses streams and thick brush to establish a lookout over a river flat.
  2. 4:23Hinds appear in the clearing and a stag roars, but fading light ends the opportunity.
  3. 8:14Fresh antler rubs leave stripped bark on trees along the trail.
  4. 11:19Joe shows his wilderness base camp before collecting water and cooking beneath the tarp.
  5. 17:59A thunderstorm and heavy rain keep him inside camp for two days.
  6. 18:38Clearer weather lets him head back into the scrubland and resume calling into the valleys.

Joe Edlington gets deep into New Zealand's wilderness by helicopter, but the weather decides how much hunting he can do. In "8 Days Solo Deer Hunting My Favorite Spot (Rut Roar Hunt)", a thunderstorm leaves him tent-bound for two days before he can return to calling into the valleys.

That older expedition is JE Wilds' busiest video right now, with roughly 722,000 views in total. Its appeal goes beyond the stalk: Joe spots bark stripped by antlers, collects river water and cooks beneath a tarp. Early on, hinds enter a clearing and a stag roars in the distance, but daylight runs out before he can take a shot. Waiting is part of this trip long before the downpour arrives.

No new uploads arrived this week. The more recent "I Had No Idea What Was Waiting" is drawing almost as many daily views as the eight-day expedition, with "Hunting Until I Get a Giant Deer (Success)" close behind. Those three trips span well over a year of uploads, giving the archive a mix of relatively fresh discoveries and longer-running viewing.

JE Wilds added about 128,000 views over the week while its subscriber count held steady. Daily viewing is currently around a third of its usual level. Nearby outdoor channels offer varied context: Midwest Whitetail is drawing above-usual daily viewing, while Outback Boys is quieter than usual. For Joe, the most active destination remains that rain-interrupted base camp in New Zealand.
