Morgan Wallen Harvested A Big Ol’ Iowa Buck Earlier This Year: “Ain’t Ever Seen A Deer Like That In Person”

Morgan Wallen kicked off his 2025 by bagging a monster buck in Iowa.

Though this hunt happened much earlier this year, we just recently got the video to prove that the “Last Night” singer really did take down a big ol’ deer in early 2025. The country music star was accompanied by accomplished hunter and outdoors personality Mark Drury, and his hunt was captured on video and shared through his Drury Outdoors social media page and YouTube channel.

Considering Morgan Wallen is one of the biggest country music stars on the planet, it was cool to see him unplug and get out to Iowa for this deer hunt with Mark Drury. Though the 23 minute episode talked a little bit about music at the very beginning, it mostly focused on Wallen’s interest in hunting, as he and Drury tracked down a deer that had been showing up on the Iowa property late into the season.

Their first night was slow and unsuccessful, and you’re going to have some of those hunts… actually more often than not. Wallen and Drury regrouped and headed back out to the same spot the following night, and this time around, the hunt was over before it had really gotten started (in a good way).

The country music star spotted the big buck walking out into the field around 3:00 in the afternoon. It was very early in the day for a deer of its size to be moving, but that didn’t matter to Wallen and Drury. They took advantage of the opportunity, and when Wallen was able to take the shot, he did so… and it was lethal.

As they watched the video back, Morgan could barely believe the size and stature of the deer he had just taken down:

“He’s big. He’s different. I ain’t ever seen a deer like that in person.”

Though they waited a while to track the deer, it didn’t take long once they got on the blood trail. Sure enough, there was the monster buck that Drury had been keeping his eye on laying on the ground, waiting to be tagged by Wallen. As the avid hunter and the country music star kneeled down next to the beast, Wallen took it all in, and thanked everyone from Drury Outdoors that had helped him out:

“Man, this is my second Iowa deer, and my most unique deer to date. That’s the quickest hunt I’ve ever been on. Thanks everybody for the help on this.”

I know it’s a little early in the year to be talking deer hunting with most gun seasons starting in October, but hey… it never hurts to get your hunting fix. Maybe this episode with Morgan Wallen can act as a holdover for those who are champing at the bit to get in their camouflage and get out into the great outdoors.

It’s well worth your time, so make sure to check it out:

“On this episode of Deer Season 25, Morgan Wallen is in the great state of Iowa during late season muzzleloader to hunt with Mark Drury! Morgan has an Iowa tag in his pocket and DeerCast predicting some good weather in the forecast. After getting settled at camp, Morgan and Mark head into the blind on a notorious field for the first evening.

The weather was right and the movement didn’t disappoint seeing a lot of deer, but unfortunately never laying eyes on a shooter. Fast forward to the second evening, it wasn’t long before the target buck stepped out into the field, and Morgan was fortunate enough to harvest his most unique buck to date and just his second buck in Iowa!”
