Woodsmanship Always Wins with Ryan Glitsky

What’s up everybody, welcome back to the HuntBetter Podcast where we are working hard to preserve the culture of hunting and the art of woodsmanship.

Really excited to have Ryan Glitsky from Pennsylvania on this week and man - I just had a blast talking to him and picking his brain on all things whitetails. Ryan is a master rut hunter and a has a lot of proof hanging on his walls, and what makes him so successful is that he leads with his humility and his hunger for learning and leaves any bit of ego in dust. He’s such a down to earth dude, and such a fun guy to talk shop with, because he’s always in that mode of willing to learning something new, no matter who he’s talking to. 

Ryan also has an insane work ethic. He’s not afraid to put in the miles if that’s what it takes. But you’ll notice in this episode that he likes to confirm what he’s heard by getting boots on the ground. In other words, he’s gonna soak up the knowledge and wisdom that he hears from other guys, but he’s gonna get boots on the ground to make sure it’s relevant to his location, his style of hunting, the attitude of the deer in that area, and so on. Even after all these years of success, and all the amazing bucks on his wall, he’s still a student of the game and I know Ryan would agree with me on this — we hope that’s the main thing you take away from this episode and really the HuntBetter Podcast as a whole. Always be learning. 

With that said, let’s go ahead and jump in…
