Show Notes
On this week's episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman, Mitch is joined by Matt Beisswanger for a traditional bowhunting conversation. Matt is a team member of Inside Twenty whose focus is sharing traditional bowhunting and their faith in Christ. Matt has been toting the stickbow since 2006 on and off and has wrapped a tag around numerous critters including some magnificent whitetail bucks. He's learned a lot when it comes to transitioning from hunting with a compound.
The closer you need to get to your quarry, the more you need to learn about them in order to be successful. For those who have hunted with a crossbow or a compound, you'd think switching to a traditional bow would be as simple as changing equipment and hunting the same as with your modern bow. That has not been Matt's experience. In fact, Matt shares with us how he manipulates stand locations to cater to closer shot opportunities. He discusses stand height, cover needed within a set up, and different mindsets while scouting a location. There is some creativity in this episode you may or may not have heard before, and it all revolves around getting Inside Twenty yards.
