Today on the podcast I’m joined by Jeremy Moore, trainer and owner of Dog Bone Hunter. Jeremy has been training dogs professionally since 2003. Everything from shed dogs, tracking dogs, gun dogs, and general obedience. Beyond finding sheds, my dog Rocky has helped me become a better deer hunter. Today's conversation is about helping your dog become a shed dog...but it's just as much about learning how man's best friend can help you become a better whitetail hunter - thanks for listening!

Today on the podcast I'm joined by my good buddy Josh Ilderton from the Untamed. Aside from killing West Virginia public land mountain bucks from the ground, Josh is passionate about sharing hunting with anyone who’s interested in learning. This season, he had a front row seat as the bowhunting spark has officially ignited in his son. Sometimes our children (or those younger than us) teach us old dogs tricks we’ve forgotten…or remind us to not take experience for granted. Not to mention, Josh ki...

Today on the podcast I'm joined by Michael Perry of Alabama. I was talking with a buddy about guys people may not know, or know very little about that are just absolute killers.

Today on the podcast I'm joined by my buddy Corey McKinney. One of my favorite things about traveling is meeting other hunters, particularly the locals. I met Corey in an Iowa public land parking lot…and then again, appropriately, at Casey’s. We shared what intel we each had about the piece of public we were both hunting, swapped a few trail camera pictures, and have stayed in touch since. This year Corey killed a killer Iowa hammer in that same area. Super cool hunt, and super cool story. Thank...

Today’s podcast is a little different. I wanted to revisit parts of conversations from the past year. Every year I go back and revisit episodes that I found to be extremely valuable…as a way to brush up on things I may have forgotten. Or identify holes in my approach I need to work on this coming off season. I thought creating a few “year in review" episodes would be fun…and may help you too. Thanks for listening!

He’s truly a freestyle hunter, adapting to the circumstance of each hunt…at times within the hunt. You’ll be hard pressed to find a better DIY bowhunter anywhere in the country. Or a more honest and straight forward fella Today’s session is also about DIY big buck strategies, hope you dig the episode. An...

Today on the podcast I'm joined by my buddy Dan Johnson of the Sportsmen’s Nation. Dan was able to fill his first out of state DIY buck tag this year spotting and stalking in South Dakota. He was there for mule deer, but an opportunity presented on a whitetail. Dan even had time to take a refreshing swim during the hunt…maybe not. I’ll let Dan tell the story.

Today on the podcast I'm joined by my good buddy Johnny Stewart. Johnny is one of the best hunters I personally know. He’s also one of the few people I know who actually enjoys hunting late season.

Today on the podcast I'm joined by my good buddy John Mulligan. We’ve not had a chance to chop it up since this summer. So it felt like a good time to catch up on the tags John has filled this season. And talk about the hunt he is currently on this week in Canada. This trip he has a few tags to fill, but the superbowl of tags for this trip is Canada moose with a bow! Hope you dig the episode and thanks for listening.

Today on the podcast I'm joined by my Paul Putera. Paul is one of those public land hunters I like to refer to as quiet killers. We all know a few of these guys. They fly under the radar when people think of some of the best hunters around the country. They're often in our own backyards, hunting highly pressured land, and just kill top end/mature deer for the areas they hunt...and do it consistently. Paul is one of those guys. Stoked to have him on the show and hope you enjoy the conversation - ...

Today on the podcast I'm joined by my buddy Aaron Hepler. Aaron scouts more than most people I know, and it shows in the number of quality encounters he has. This year he had intel on a good buck, but it was in an area that sees a lot of pressure...even during archery season. Aaron was able to find where deer, and this buck in particular, wanted to spend time in daylight once the pressure moved them out of their early season hangouts. Not being deterred by the hunting pressure, and being smarter...

Today on the podcast I'm joined by my buddy Troy Pottenger. I'm sure many of you are aware of Troy and his ability to chase down the oldest and biggest mountain bucks. The incredible part of his success is he's doing it in Idaho, a place not known for whitetails, and is competing against North America's apex predators for the same deer. Community scrapes, along with bedding, is a go-to-strategy he uses. But a community scrape isn't always in a place that's huntable based on access or wind. So Tr...
