Whether it’s climbing into thin air after rams, calling bulls in dark timber, or glassing sage flats for pronghorn, Luke’s at home anywhere wild country still rules. For him, hunting isn’t about ego or inches—it’s about grit, adventure, and the stories that come from doing it the hard way on public land. When he’s not on the mountain, you’ll find Luke at the family cabin in Wyoming’s Beartooth Mountains—fishing creeks, exploring trails on horseback, or gathered around the campfire with family. Those moments keep him grounded and remind him what truly matters. Driven by a deep respect for the land and the legacy of the Western lifestyle, Luke is dedicated to keeping that tradition alive for generations to come.

Nothing but respect, the hard way the Barta way !
Oh my! This guy is a terrible shot. I got sick watching this and I’ve been trad bow hunting for 45 years. 2 polar bears myself and this is t how we did it. Chasing with dogs? Not fair chase and the guide should be ashamed. This is the type of hunter that shoots wildly and wounds animals. Very surprised the guide allowed taking this sub adult bear. Ugly for hunting.
Sounds like someone’s jealous lol
You lift yourself up at the same time cutting down a fellow bow hunter.
Big enough to get honorable mention at the 2024 P&Y convention. Both shots were perfect.
