154 KRISTY TITUS - Big Game Hunting Fitness, Diet, Exercise, Big Country Training and Mindset
25/06/2016 Duration: 01h09minHunting the big mountains of the west is demanding, physically and mentally. You can travel to the spot, but when the hunt is on, you need to kick into high gear. On a hunt, Kristy Titus needed that extra gear when it counted most, but couldn't get there. She says, "I was so gassed that I was tasting blood". She was the overweight non-athlete and she was out of shape. It wasn't fun. This self realization set the stage for years to come. Kristy vowed to herself to never let anything like that happen again and today Kristy is always in shape for hunting the big mountains. It's become a life style of dieting, exercise, mindset and even body building for competition. This is the result of a desire to keep pace with the demands of hunting big game on big mountains.

153 DR KEN NORDBERG Part II - Whitetail Hunter's Almanac 2nd Edition - The 5 Phases of the Rut
18/06/2016 Duration: 01h16minWe pick up where we left off, at Phase II of the rut, as described by Dr. Ken Nordberg. This show covers Phases II through V. Dr Nordberg wrote a book in the 1980s called Whitetail Hunter's Almanac that is considered by many as the deer hunting bible. Today there are 9 (soon to be 10) editions of the Almanac, each sharing some fascinating insight into the world of the whitetail deer and how to hunt them. Dr Nordberg, otherwise known as "Doc", used to spend over 4000 hours a year studying the whitetail. Interestingly enough, Dr. Nordberg's deer hunting strategy has changed over the years as he recognized new patterns in whitetail behavior relative to hunting. This show is for the beginner and the advanced hunter.

151 CHARLES BYRUM- Deer Hunting California to Iowa, From Spot and Stalk to Ground Blinds
28/05/2016 Duration: 01h15minWhen an wrench hits, plans change. For Charles Byrum, when surgery failed leaving him less mobile, it put a serious damper on his spot and stalk style of California deer hunting. So, instead of staying put and wishing he could continue his passion, Charles did what any die hard deer hunter would do, he moved to Iowa! The terrain and techniques are different, but Charles is still getting it done in the deer woods (and is now shooting bigger deer by the way).

149 TRAVIS T-BONE TURNER: Redneck Pep Rally, World Championship 3-D Archery, Bow Evolution, and Thor's Hammer
14/05/2016 Duration: 01h26minFrom his humble beginnings in Dayton, Ohio to the country life of Georgia, Travis T-Bone Turner is one of the most likable hunters on television. Travis spent time working for Mercedes Benz but soon opened a bow shop, which opened a door to a whole new world. Many may not realize that Travis is a deep thinking detail oriented guy who holds a World Championship in 3-D Archery. As this interview will reveal, the Mother Hen (as Michael Waddell and Nick Mundt will affectionately refer to him), knows bows from limb to limb. FOC? Thor's Hammer? T-Bone Turner knows how to take some of the most technical physics-oriented flight of the arrow science and turn it into something that everyone can understand.

148 JIM AND EVA SHOCKEY - Off Camera, Outdoor Writing, 88 Death Threats in 24 Hours, and the True Meaning of Hunting and Conservation
07/05/2016 Duration: 01h28minJim Shockey, now 58 years young, has made a career of hunting for over 30 years now. Most would say he is one of most recognized and influential hunters of our time. Eva, his daughter, now 28 years old, has been following in Jim's footsteps but is, arguably, more recognized than Jim considering the number of Eva's social media followers. Eva has now entered into a new phase of her hunting career and life as she has broken away from the nest. Jim's start was far more humble than you might think- hunting was a means to food on the table, nothing more, and his deer camp as a child was a mobile home park he called home. Jim and Eva have a great camaraderie and cantor and we hear it all as we discuss their life journey.

As deer hunters we have an obligation to hunt coyotes all year round, not to eliminated them, but to control them in order to let the buck fawn live and eventually seed a healthier deer herd to include a healthy supply of bucks. In our last show with Al, (Episode 138 www.BigBuckRegistry.com/almorrisfoxpro ) ,Al discussed many of the basic aspects of how-to coyote hunting.

145 DAN COFFMAN and the Coffman Buck! Part I- THE STRATEGY - Pope and Young's #2 Buck, 37 Points, 287 5/8 Net Inches
09/04/2016 Duration: 01h01minThirty-seven points and 287 5/8 net inches of antler should get your attention. It certainly got the attention of Pope and Young, Dan Coffman, a slew of other hunters, and now Dan Coffman's Buck appears to be the #2 World Record. If inches could measure story, the story behind the Coffman but would rank pretty darn high too. Dan shares all the details with us, including a few you haven't heard before. A two year pursuit finally came together for Dan Coffman and we bring you 2 full hours of how Dan strategized to put this monster on the wall. In Part I we review all the strategy and work that lead up to the day of the hunt. Part II (next week), we breakdown every inch of the hunt, minute by minute, on how Dan was finally able to capitalize on a moment of a lifetime.

144 MICHAEL PITTS - Michael Waddell's Mentor, Fire Fighter, Master Bowman, Realtree and Part-Time Comedian
02/04/2016 Duration: 01h31minYou might have seen Realtree’s video of Michael Pitts asking some pretty overly straight forward questions of Michael Waddell, Nick Mundt, and Travis T-Bone Turner from this year’s ATA event. He is decidedly the thorn in Michael Waddell’s side and that one person by which no celebrity hunter wants to be interviewed. So, we tracked him down to find out who the real Michael Pitts is - turns out he’s an master bowman and bow technician, a full time fire fighter, a Realtree Prostaff, and now, part-time comedian. Michael walks us through his character, and often breaks into character as he details his elite hunter training facility that his has put together for his students.

143 CHAD EUBANKS - An Argument for High Fence Hunting, Timber Company Deer Leases, and Louisiana Public Hunting
26/03/2016 Duration: 01h18minChad Eubanks has spent a lifetime hunting in Louisiana, both on public and private leased timber company property. Chad's biggest pet peeve is when one hunter disrespects another. To avoid poachers and trespassers and those hunters that disrespect other hunters, Chad has turned his sights on high fence hunting. As many scream "high fence" on any big buck Facebook photo post, Chad has found sanctuary and a comfort in not what the fence keeps in, but what it keeps out. Chad discusses the pros and cons of high fence deer hunting in Missouri versus private leased land and public land hunting in Louisiana.

142 TAGNBRAG REVISITED: David & Dean Giarrizzo - Food Plots, Hunting Ohio, New York & North Dakota, Clover Turnips & Tonnage
19/03/2016 Duration: 01h38minIt's been almost 2 years since we last talked to David and Dean Giarrizzo from Tag-N-Brag TV as we continue our mission to revisit old friends of the Big Buck Registry (FOBBR). David and Dean are brothers continuing to pursue their passion: to be professional hunters. They aren't making a bunch of money, but they are making a living and doing what they love. A little older now, the boys of Tag-N-Brag are coming of age and we have to say, they seem more mature in many ways, but they still have fun in the deer woods and know how connect with younger hunters (which we think is extremely important). From food plots and soil sampling in New York to early season deer hunting in North Dakota, Dean and David are living their dream.

They appeared originally on the Big Buck Deer Hunting Podcast in Show #062 on August 30, 2014. Time flies. Managing a farm in Northern Missouri is a full time job as creating a better habitat for wild grasses and wild game is never ending.

140 CAMERON COBLE - The Average Joe Blue-Collar Deer Hunter - Public Deer Hunting Strategies for Kansas, Iowa, Indiana, and Illinois
05/03/2016 Duration: 01h37minMeet Cameron Coble, the self-proclaimed average-Joe blue-collar deer hunter. We believe that some of the best deer hunters in America aren't flashy, don't want to be, and they often keep to themselves. When we have an opportunity to speak to someone like Cameron, we jump on it. Hunters like Cameron often hold some of the most amazing perspectives on deer hunting and it's like tapping into a over-ripe maple tree filled with the nectar of unique deer tips and hunting strategies. Cameron focuses his hunting on public ground in some of the most ripe deer states in the US- Iowa, Indiana, and Kansas. He is also setting his sights on Ohio in the near future. We thank Cameron for spending over and hour with us as we breakdown his day to day hunting strategies!

27/02/2016 Duration: 01h21minNick Mundt is on the road 300 days out of the year. Technically, Nick is in the woods most of those days, either hunting or filming someone else hunting. Nick is a professional hunter, trained hunting guide, and a licensed barber- no joke - (Nick packs his scissors with him when traveling and will trim Michael Waddell's hair when necessary- it's always good to travel with your own barber). But how did Nick get to where he is today? Is having the freedom to be in the woods most of the year worth more than money? We think so, and so does Nick Mundt.

138 BIG AL MORRIS - Killin' Coyotes, Thinning the Pack, Helping the Deer Herd, FoxPro
20/02/2016 Duration: 01h23minCoyotes can decimate a deer herd, especially buck fawns, according to scientific studies. You might think that killing all coyotes in the answer, but it's actually counterintuitive. Coyotes are extremely resilient and will self regulate, but over killing them can actually trigger a biological event resulting in high pup crops. Regardless, hammering coyote packs and reducing numbers in your deer hunting areas will only help your cause. Al Morris from FoxPro is an expert coyote hunter and helps us breakdown and dissect this essential aspect of hunting, from beginner to intermediate levels.

137 ADAM LEWIS - The Study of Sound in the Deer Woods, What Deer Hear, & How to Adjust Your Hunt
13/02/2016 Duration: 01h20minAs deer hunters, we often try to be quiet in the woods so as not to spook the deer, but why? What do we really know about the sounds we make? Not many studies have been done on sound in the deer woods, but Adam Lewis, a physics teacher by trade, is determined to change that. He created a company called Sound Barrier Hunting that researches and tests those sounds that hunters commonly make and the results may not be what you thought. How far does a metal on metal clang travel and will that particular sound decrease your odds of scoring big on a deer hunt? Adams explains all this and more!
