EP. 327: Use A North Wind To Cover Your Movement | Ground Hunting With Travis Glassman
15/03/2023 Duration: 01h37minToday I'm joined by Travis Glassman. If you’ve been following this podcast you know that I’ve have a soft spot for ground hunting and the advantages you gain by being on the ground, especially in the plaines of Kansas. Travis is a Kansas native who is consistently filling his tag on mature whitetails from the ground using a combination of spot and stalk, ambush set ups, and maybe his favorite…decoying a ticked off dominant buck to 5 yards! If that’s not enough he’s usually capturing all of this on camera. I’m already pumped up to get back to the wide open plaines to do some crawling and brawling.

EP. 326: A New Chapter & Doing Hard Shit | Cody D'Acquisto
08/03/2023 Duration: 02h01minToday I'm joined by my buddy Cody D’Acuisto - it’s been a while since we’ve had a chance to catch up. Cody has made a habit of proving people wrong. He’s one of the best deer hunters you’ll find with inches to prove it. His strategies sometimes seem unorthodox initially…until he hangs Boone and Crocket deer on his wall…then everyone is all ears. He’s a trail blazer and what set’s him apart from other hunters is his mindset. Yes he’s a great strategist when it comes to locking and killing giant bucks. But he usually has to come up with something unconventional and outside the box to release that fatal arrow. And doing what hasn’t been proven before is where his mindset puts him over the top. Killer session with Cody and hope you all dig the conversation as much as I did - thanks for listening! To listen to the podcast click the purple play button at the top of the page.

EP. 325: The Good, The Bad, The Ugly
01/03/2023 Duration: 01h37minToday I'm joined by my good buddy and road dog, Chad Sylvester. Chad and I usually spend a few weeks in the fall together however, this year our schedules and hunts didn’t line up. This time of year Chad and I like to air our the previous season and discuss the good, bad, and the ugly as a way to put a pin in the season, uncover what we would like to work on in the future…and begin looking forward to the 2023 hunting season. Chad also demo’d a new line of tactical hunting gear in Idaho…or maybe he just went primitive…tune in for the deets - thanks for listening!

He’s finding success in unexpected places…and the hunt from this year was…well… you’ll have to listen to hear it from the horses mouth.

EP. 322: Hunting On A Sick Day | Full Draw 4 Times
08/02/2023 Duration: 01h46minToday I'm joined by my good buddy Greg Litzinger. As you guys know, Greg and I get together to chop it up about bowhunting a few times a year. We've both been separately tackling new big woods pieces for the past 2 years. Greg in NJ and me In PA. It usually will take 3 seasons to get a firm grasp on a new piece (if you're a regular working guy), especially with the challenges the big woods provide. That's what we talk about today. That, and how Greg's season played out...and some listener Q/A. - thanks for listening! To listen to the podcast click the purple play button at the top of the page.

EP. 321: Public Land Booner | Time Is Undefeated
01/02/2023 Duration: 01h41minToday I’m joined by my buddy Jace Allen. Jace was on over the summer to talk about how he builds buck quadrants to kill mature bucks. During that episode he alluded to the idea of having a season like he’s never had before in 2022. He was determined to put life on hold (or maybe just slow it down) to chase his passion, prioritize the woods, whitetails, and hunt more days from season start to season end than ever before possible. You might call this a dream season from many…but it wasn’t without it’s ups and downs. Oh…and he may have out dueled public land pressure to wrap a tag around at least one Boone & Crocket buck - thanks for listening!

07/12/2022 Duration: 01h11minToday I’m joined by my good buddy Jacob Emery. Jacob’s season started off with a bang…then the grind set it.

EP. 311: Two Tags Filled And Three Arrows
23/11/2022 Duration: 02h11minToday I'm joined by my good buddy Aaron Hepler. Aaron is one of the most dedicate outdoorsman I know. Regardless of season, Aaron is almost always in the woods scouting, hiking, hunting, looking for his next experience. This year he had a goal of filling two specific tags. One being his first ever bull Elk tag. The other his PA buck tag on public lands...which is a challenge...and something he manages to do with consistency. If he were going to fill these two tags he'd have to dust himself off after a heartbreaker of one that got away. To listen to the podcast click the purple play button at the top of the page.

EP. 310: How to Find a Buck With The Season Winding Down | Jake Bush
16/11/2022 Duration: 01h22minToday I'm joined by my good buddy Jake Bush. Jake is known for his efficiency in killing giants in the early part of October. This year has thrown him a curveball with the areas he hunts being hit hard by EHD. He’s found most of his top target bucks dead…or has found out from others that they were found dead. He’s logged 750 miles this year boots on the ground trying to locate a target. You’ll find few people more dedicated than Jake…and I’d put money on him filling a tag before seasons end.

EP. 308: Patterning Scrape Dates For Big Bucks
02/11/2022 Duration: 01h12minToday on the podcast I’m joined by my good Buddy Jake Hofer. Jake is one of the guys who I’ve learned a lot from when it comes to using longer-term trail camera data to plan hunts. More specifically how I approach patterning scrapes is directly influenced by Jake’s approach (and love) for scrapes. Intimately learning when and how different scrapes are being used has helped me target specific dates related to a specific scape area. The past few years, I’ve picked a specific date I’ve seen active and not surprising, I had encounters with shooter bucks in both instances. Kinda crazy to pick one date in the entire whitetail calendar…and consistently have it produce. Hope you dig the conversation - thanks for listening!
