Hunting Until I Get a Giant Deer (Success)
Joe Edlington posted nothing new on JE Wilds this week, and his viewers went hunting with him anyway, mostly on trips he filmed long ago.
The one they keep choosing is "Hunting Until I Get a Giant Deer (Success)", now more than 450 days old and past 1.8 million views. Its tags point to the roar, the autumn rut when red stags bellow across the hills, and the description thanks a helicopter friend named Scott for the ride in. The title gives away the ending, and people still watch to the last frame.
Close behind sits "8 Days Solo Deer Hunting My Favorite Spot (Rut Roar Hunt)", tagged for the 2026 roar, a longer solo stay at a place Joe calls his favorite. The newest of the three, "5 Days Solo Hunting Down a Giant Bull", is only 25 days old and already moving at nearly the same daily pace as that eight-day hunt. Its tags mention tahr, the Himalayan mountain goat that lives wild on New Zealand's alpine slopes.
The channel ran a touch below its usual pace and the subscriber count held at 332,000. Among similar outdoor channels, Deer Hunting Cajuns had by far the biggest week, Logan Anderson Fishing and Midwest Whitetail were busy too, and JE Wilds sat in the middle with Jay Siemens, steady while the stags kept roaring on screen.
