This week on the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast, Ben Harrison of the Bowhunting League is back and he brought along some friends. If you haven't heard of the Bow Hunting league, it is a family friendly nationwide bow hunting competition that is completely free to enter. The main reason it remains free is due to the help of great sponsors like the ones that joined in on this episode. Ryan Stricklin of Native Ground Land Co. and Bren Chapman of Okie Land Bow Hunters archery shop are two of the Oklahoma based sponsors of the league, and they joined Ben and John to talk about all the ins and outs of the competition. 

Oklahoma has held its own in the competition over the years. Last year Oklahoma was second in entries, and multiple Oklahoma Teams finished towards the top of the leaderboard. While it is called a competition, the league is much more about camaraderie and bringing folks together rather than tearing them apart. If you don't have access to prime hunting ground, don't worry. There are all kinds of prizes to be won, some as easily as just signing up! Did we mention it's free?

This is the 7th episode in "The Fall Sessions" series, where we talk about all things whitetail deer hunting. On this episode, Dan and Aaron talk about the time they dedicate to deer hunting. They discuss the balancing act between family and hunting, the different stages of deer hunting, how much time they schedule for out of state hunts, and some of their favorite thing about hunting deer and other outdoor activities.

Late July/early August is a great time to do some digital scouting and hang some stands. Understanding thermals and their impact on wind currents can help you take your scouting and stand sight selection to the next level. Thermals can make or break a hunt. Not only do they influence how deer move across the landscape, but hunting with thermals in mind can be the difference between you watching as a white tails bound off through the timber or you getting a chip shot at your target. But thermals can be tough to understand and predict. 

In this episode of the How to Hunt Deer podcast, Josh talks with Eric Ives of Red Bearded Predators for a little thermals 101. Eric hunts the hill country of southwestern WI, so he is no stranger to thermals, how they impact your hunting setups, and how deer use them to their advantage. Tune in to learn how to capitalize on thermals where you hunt!

On this episode of The Nomadic Outdoorsman Dan talks with Nathan and Katie Wright about their passion for connecting hunters with high quality firearms and hunting opportunities.

Nathan and Katie own Echo 3 Ordnance and Echo Outdoors. Through Echo 3 Ordnance they manufacture high quality AR platforms both for recreational use hunting and through Echo Outdoors they book hunts in several states where their clients can put their guns to use.

Nathan grew up hunting in the mountains of Virginia before enlisting into the Marine Corps. Katie also grew up in VA and would accompany her dad when he would go out to hunt. Six years ago they had the opportunity to start E3O and it has grown from there. Last year they started the Echo Outdoors as a side of the business and now book whitetail and ram hunts in Ohio, alligator and hog in Florida, bear in Maine. Dan chats with the Wrights about their business products/services and all the adventures that they get to enjoy.

On this week's episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman we interview an archery legend, Sherwood Schoch.  Sherwood is originally from Boyertown, Pennsylvania, and was one of the four men responsible for developing and marketing the first compound bow.  He worked side by side with Tom Jennings and changed the industry forever with Jennings compound bows.  This interview will be broken into two episodes.  

In part one, we learn about Sherwood's introduction to hunting and archery, leading to his job as an archery magazine editor after his service in the Navy.  From here, Sherwood shares his experience shooting at the highest level of competition archery, winning a national championship, and the doors that continued to open through this journey.  That journey would snowball into developing a compound bow and leading seminars all across the country to promote the compound as a valid hunting weapon during the archery hunting season.  You'll hear connections with big names including Pete Shepley, Fred Bear, Ben Pearson, Tom Jennings, and many other archery legends.  Be sure to watch out for part two soon!

Hey everyone, welcome to episode 180 of the Antler Up Podcast!

On this week's episode I was joined by Jake Vernon!! Jake resides in PA, but had a really unique upbringing when it came to hunting.  Growing up Jake traveled a lot to Kentucky to hunt whitetail, then had the opportunity to live in Montana.  This is where Jake seemed to really sharpen his skills as a whitetail hunter.  In this specific episode Jake and I cover a variety of topics and stories. To go along with this episode, please head over to our website www.antlerupoutdoors.com and on our In the Field page, Jake has an article written for you all.  So, listen to today’s episode and head over there to read his piece.   

Kicking this episode off, Jake introduces his interesting upbringing when it came to whitetail hunting.  This was a story unlike any that I have heard so far.  I really enjoyed Jake sharing his story and then talking about his experience getting his son into the outdoors and particularly archery.  Following this discussion Jake shares some stories about the time he lived in Montana and the tactics they used to hunt whitetail and how these strategies have evolved for him over the years.  Jake and I shared a similar story when we hit our early 20’s in that we got back into bowhunting. From there Jake discusses how the last few years he has been successful in an unorthodox way.  When listening to Jake you just hear how much he just loves hunting whitetail and isn’t afraid to be different. For example, Jake does not spend a ton of time scouting during the “post-season” time frame, but rather uses the rifle season to hunt but scout for next year's bow season as well.  Throwing this strategy on top of his preferred method of archery, Jake just simply grinds to be the best hunter and archer he can be.  We wrap things up discussing goals, build upon your experience in the woods and upcoming plans for this year.  Check it out and let us know what you think!  Enjoy this fun episode and see you next week! 

Thanks again for all the support and best of luck out there and Antler Up!

On this episode of the Michigan Wild Podcast, Marcus sits down and passes the torch to new host Nate Rozeveld. The guys talk about all things Michigan and what led Nate down the path of wanting to host a podcast. From there, the guys dig into whitetail hunting and how Nate has approached the season over the past 10 or so years. Nate also discusses what he has in store for the podcast going forward. Here's a glimpse into the future of the podcast and you should all be pretty excited about it. Enjoy!

In this week’s [UNCENSORED] podcast by GoWild, we talk with Paul Campbell from the 02 Podcast about every and anything turkey hunting related. He spent the majority of his season on the road chasing the thunder with some of his most memorable moments in the Everglades of southern Florida–it was HOT! Pro-tip: Don’t forget your Thermacell! He packed on the miles in pursuit of a Sunshine State public land Osceola, even after finding an unpromising sight at his camp site. He then transferred over to some private land for a completely different style of hunting hoping for success … find out if he finds it or not! Lots of firsts for Paul on his trip as well as plenty of excitement. Listen in to find out why he says he’d love to go back. 

We also cover public hunting perception and how the atmosphere is changing. How do we get more people outdoors and hunting? Paul gives some great advice on how he thinks we can change the perception of anti-hunting and how we should showcase hunting vs how it currently gets displayed on social media. What do you think outdoorsmen can do to help promote the hunting industry in a positive light? Paul goes on to talk about getting to speak to a conservation science class in Ohio. We talk about just how important it is to bring that curriculum into both high school and grad school levels of education as the numbers of hunters declines. Bass fishing teams and national archery leagues are really making a positive impact in that space but how else could we get kids involved?

We pivot to discuss just how stupid a whitetail can be during turkey season. Literally they'll walk right up to your lap! Also, Paul tells a story about how he comes to a whitetail’s rescue; the second time's the charm, right? Lots of fishing gear is dropping on the GoWild platform soon, as well as some collaborative stuff with gunbroker.com. It's going to be an exciting summer!

After waiting seven years, John finally drew a coveted Iowa bow tag. Now what?? This week on the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast, John is joined by the Sportsmens Empire Emperor himself, Mr Dan Johnson. Being born and raised in Iowa, Dan knows a thing or two about the big bodied big racked bucks that call the Hawkeye state home. This episode is not as much about hunting strategy as it is Iowa specific details that an out of state hunter like John should know. After waiting years to accumulate enough points to draw one of the state's best units, John wants to make sure he stacks as many advantages as he can.

One of the main topics the guys cover is simply what caliber of buck John should expect to encounter. While most think there is a 200" deer behind every tree in Iowa, Dan makes it clear that that is not the case. There is however, on average a much higher caliber of deer and especially if you are on private land which John hopes to be hunting. The guys also cover expected weather conditions, if a saddle is worth it, terrain features vs deer sign, and much more. If you have ever hunted Iowa, or plan to one day do it, be sure to listen to this episode.

Unless you've been living under a rock for the last several years, you know about saddle hunting. While saddle hunting has been around for a long time, the resurgence in its popularity recently had many asking the question, Is saddle hunting just a fad? While it's not for everyone,  most deer hunters could benefit tremendously from having a tree saddle as another tool in the belt. They're undoubtedly lighter, quieter, and some argue safer than a tree stand. And for many, they can also make you a more effective and efficient hunter. 

In this episode of the How to Hunt Deer Podcast, Josh talks with Jason Redd from Timber Ninja Outdoors about deer hunting and Timber Ninja Gear. Timber Ninja came on the market with the industry's first carbon fiber sticks. Now they've rounded out their offerings with saddles, accessories, and a lot of new cool stuff that's getting ready to launch.

On this episode of The Nomadic Outdoorsman Dan talks with Charmaine Leath, an outdoorswoman whose passion for the outdoors led her to make a name for herself in the outdoor industry and has allowed her to hunt and fish all over the world.

Charmaine is based out of Southwest Colorado but hunts and fishes worldwide. She grew up in a small oilfield town in New Mexico, spending most of her childhood with horses and in the outdoors hunting, fishing, and camping. After graduating she moved around the country working as a medical aesthetician and fiddled with photography. She would make yearly tips home to hunt and fish with her dad but ended up settling down in a small country town in Colorado in her late 20s which is when she really dove deep into making her outdoor dreams come true.

Charmaine didn’t come from money and didn’t have an “in” in the outdoor industry. Despite not having a connection she dove in feet first. She already had an eye and love for photography and she wanted to partner and represent companies whose passion and desire she could align with and whose gear and values matched hers. Her first partnership was with SKRE Gear and from there she continued to grow in the outdoors gaining more brands, sponsorships, traveling and hunting more and working expos and events.

Just when you though you have heard from every elite bowhunter in North America, along comes Andrew Muntz to deconstruct everything you thought you knew about hunting whitetails. On this episode of the Nine Finger Chronicles, Dan is joined by one of the hosts of the Ohio Outdoors podcast, Andrew Muntz, to talk about his journey in to bowhunting. Andrew talks about the struggles that he goes through every year, how he learns from his mistakes, and what ultimately led to him becoming successful for the last couple years. Just another fun episode with an average bowhunter and a great human being. Enjoy and share!

On this week’s episode of the Ohio Outdoors episode Paul is flying solo. We cover the news from the State, talk about counting birds…yes counting birds and tell you about the future of Team USA from right here in Ohio. The main episode this week is a throwback to our good buddy Doug Duren. Doug’s perspective on life and conservation is really fascinating. Enjoy the show!

This week's episode of the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast covers a topic John has been wanting to talk about for quite some time. Greg Willis runs US Hunts, a website that helps hunters find leases for deer, waterfowl, varmints, bears, and more. Greg has been helping connect hunters with land owners for many years now, but has recently upped his game and his outreach. US hunts is a simple to use website, which can filter what a person is looking for, much like any other online shopping.

Greg and John obviously talk about Gregs business, but they also cover many topics that are good for anyone looking to lease land should know. Obviously everyone wants to kill giant deer, but there are other things to consider as well like neighbors, water, food, accessibility for both hunting and other recreational uses, and don't forget about the land owner themself. The guys also talk about the advantages to leasing over owning. Such as being able to hunt multiple areas, or being able to simply pick up and go if something were to happen to the quality of the game a person is pursuing.

For many of us, our dads are the ones who got us into the sport of hunting. This week on Southern Ground, Parker and his dad reminisce on past hunts they've shared together. They talk through the highlights of their early days of hunting, and how that shaped the bond that they have now. 

There may not be a more important relationship in your life than the one you have with your dad. This week, we want to give dads a huge shout out. Thank you for bringing in the next generation of hunters!

It's late June! Hopefully you're ironing out your hunting plans for this fall. If your like many hunters, those hunt planning conversations with your spouse can look more like arguments, with neither side walking away very happy with how things went down. What if there's a better way? A way to argue less AND hunt more? And what if that way is NOT a divorce?

In this episode of the How to Hunt Deer Podcast, Josh talks with his wife, professional counselor Tiffany Raley, about how spouses can spend more time hunting and less time arguing about it. 

On this video we discuss all things summer whitetail related.  Some gear talk and changes we are making.  Trail cam discussion on settings and how we run summer trail cameras.  We bounce over to archery set up and bow shooting as well.

Later we discussed some elk hunting prep.  How we have gone DIY elk hunting and released 5 arrows over the years.  

Topics Discussed 

-gear ties

On this episode of The Nomadic Outdoorsman Dan talks with Josh Isely about his adventures hunting what most would consider once in a lifetime animals.

Josh is a regular 8-5 engineer with a grown son. He grew up in a small town in southern Wisconsin, worked on his grandparents farm and in his mother's bar. He was an athlete but always loved to be in the woods and on the water. He grew up admiring the mule deer and antelope on the wall in his grandfather’s basement and knew that he wanted to expand his hunting one day. He took his first trip to WY in 2009 which sparked a love for new hunting adventures and helped him make lifestyle changes that would allow him to travel the world in pursuit of big game. On this episode Dan and Josh discuss the ins and outs of expedition hunting and what it takes to break outside the “norm” of hunting your home state.

On this episode of Huntavore, we join Nick after a series of events, both awesome and not so awesome.  First, he was humbled by an article entitled Roast What You Kill, and is reflecting on his thoughts.  Second, in preparation for a bachelor party, Nick prepared Carnitas, and Venison Barbacoa to be slung out as blackstone tacos on a tailgate.  Finally, Nick was again humbled by a wall of water and ice coming from his freezer.  All sorts of ups and downs on this episode of Huntavore.

Nick is solo on this episode, and reflects on an article by Greg Morse.  Expanding on the Proverbs 12:27, Nick is noticing areas where he has gotten worn down and lazy.  In the examples it doesn't just point to hunters not roasting their game, but points to areas where we as men have lost motivation and slacked.  The Beautiful thing is we can alway get back up, and get better.

Next is what we were waiting for, and that is the Carnitas and Venison barbacoa on a tailgate.  Nick turned out almost 60 of these tasty birra tacos using the cooking liquid from the barbacoa.  Simple add ons like cheese, onion, cilantro, and a chipotle drizzle sauce make these babies a home run.

Last is a reminder to us all who eat out of the freezer.  Ajar doors are an ever present danger.  Be vigilant and have fail safes for these meat safes.  Nick talks about his quick plan to move the still frozen solid bounty, but also discard the thawed door items.  He also lays out the plan to be proactive about protecting that door.

Hey everyone, welcome to episode 178 of the Antler Up Podcast!

On this week's episode I was joined by Mike Lindahl from Domain Outdoor.  Mike was on the podcast two springs ago talking about how to improve your land and his company Domain Outdoor.  However, this episode Mike and I had an enjoyable conversation where we were able to just catch up! Last time we saw each other was at the 2022 ATA show and throughout the year we always keep tabs on what each other is up to.  So, we decided to catch up over a podcast for you all to enjoy!

Kicking this episode off, Mike lets us know what is happening with work and how much Domain is growing.  One aspect that really caught my attention in this discussion is how individuals over the last few years have turned their land habitat management into a year round process.  This is obviously great for Mike and Domain, but I love to hear how much he and his crew are still able to help individuals out with creating the best property they can.  From here I know Mike is a big golfer so we quickly share some golf stories and then discuss his best season to date!  Mike killed his biggest whitetail this past season with some great friends in Kentucky and a great buck in Wisconsin with his family.  Hearing the traditions he has with his friends and family in Wisconsin reminds me of what a lot of us hunters have here in PA.  Mike also shares his excitement for the Alaska caribou hunt that is on the horizon for this upcoming season! I really enjoyed this episode and having the opportunity to catch up with Mike! . Check it out and let us know what you think!  Enjoy this fun episode and see you next week! 

Thanks again for all the support and best of luck out there and Antler Up!

When turkey season comes to a close, many outdoorsmen and women hang the camo in the closet and prepare for the long summer off season. Bransen Shelton had other plans this year though. He and a few buddies loaded up the truck and headed west for a spring bear hunt. This week on the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast, Bransen joins John to talk about the insane amount of time and work it took to bring down a DIY public land bear.

Bransen had hunted the western mountains before, but never for spring bear. He talks about the intense grind the hunt required in order to be successful. Long days and lots of miles. Some days waking up before 4:30am and not going to bed till well after 11pm. He goes through some of the gear he used on the trip and how he was able to stay in the back country for so long. He also gets into the different hunting styles the group used throughout the week, and how he specifically went against some of the usual tactics a lot of people use.

In this week’s [UNCENSORED] podcast by GoWild, we start off with some silliness and ask where our regional accents and drawls come from. How much does alcohol influence their appearances? What happens to your accent when you’re born and raised somewhere and then visit or move to another area … do you fake it or have you made it? How does age affect how it happens? 

Derek went up to central Ohio to turkey hunt with our good buddy Paul Campbell of the O2 Podcast and How to Hunt Turkey Podcast. They hunted both private and public land, saw some birds, hunted a few different ways, and got real close to some toms … find out how they did. They follow two key tactics for killing birds: with your feet or with your seat. They also remind us that even if you’re calling and not hearing birds respond, they are still hearing you. How does vegetation affect hunting as the season progresses?

We also discuss how public land parcels are neglected and trashed by people. This may not be hunters or anglers doing it and it’s not the fault of the state wildlife agency; so who is creating these messes and what can we do about it?

Arica took her kids pond fishing and they got into some panfish. They’re planning a trip up to Michigan and are hoping to target pike, bass, and more. School gets out soon and they’ll be camping hard until the end of summer. Dan Johnson from Sportsmen’s Empire raises a great question about kids’ age and camping: how young is too young to take a big trip to somewhere like Yellowstone? At a young age, are they able to get around and will they even remember it? Can you train and condition kids to prepare for a big trip and long hikes?

Dan and Derek talk about the tags they’ve drawn already, are planning to draw, and hint at some of their fall hunting plans.

[UNCENSORED] by GoWild kicks off your week with shameful nonsense, inappropriate convictions, and unfiltered tales from the woods, waters and whatevers. [UNCENSORED] is a behind the scenes look at our adventures, failures, wins, embarrassing moments at trade shows, hilarious tales from the warehouse, and a good rant or three about the most recent tyranny from the Dark Lord of the Sith himself.

Welcome to the Limbhanger podcast! Turkey season is over and we don't want to talk about it. But this is a podcast, so we have to talk about it. The redeeming news is that Dave Owens of the Pinhoti Project is joining us this week. It's hard to give Dave an introduction. Do you talk about his unmatched skillset of being a hunter? Or should you talk about his championship calling? He's really just one of the most genuine, down to earth people in the hunting industry, and it's an honor to have him joining us. 

We're getting in the weeds this week as Dave gives us some insight into the things he's taken note of in his career as a travelling turkey hunter. Each spring, Dave travels across the country hunting turkeys. So who better to talk to about turkey populations, regulations that might need adjusted, or new regulations that might actually be working well? It seems to be commonplace for hunters to talk about a rise in pressure. Covid seemingly opened the flood gates and some people believe the spring turkey woods will never be the same due to increased pressure. What does Dave think about this? Well, rest assured you're going to hear this and a lot more this week. Thanks for listening!

This week on Southern Ground Hunting: We're pumped to have Brent Stubblefield from Join or Die Knives, along with James Moffit from Trailhead Creative on the show to chat a little bit about the history and trajectory of our newest partner, Join Or Die Knives. 

If you haven't heard of Join Or Die, you should definitely take a listen to this episode. If you're like Parker, you might not truly know what a "good" knife feels like after a lifetime of picking up Walmart specials or other cheap retail knives. He would tell you, without a doubt, there's a difference. Tune in to hear a little bit more about why Join Or Die is... different from your other run of the mill knives.

We are back for the 5th episode in "The Fall Sessions" and this week we talk about our favorite hunting gear.

This is just another great episode in this series.

Hey everyone, welcome to episode 177 of the Antler Up Podcast!

On this week's episode I was joined by PA native Tyler Wilbur.  Tyler and I had a fun conversation about a variety of whitetail topics.  These topics included his success this past year, how that will help him for this upcoming season, learning from Steve Sherk and how his scouting is evolving.  We cover some more topics that I believe will fire you up for this whitetail season! The main topic of this episode is don’t leave anything to chance.  Get out there and scout, prepare by shooting your bow, go over past intel and be ready for when that moment comes!

Kicking this episode off, Tyler introduces himself and what is currently in the works for him.  It was great to get a chance to hear Tyler’s story from learning from his father and now getting a chance to learn from Steve Sherk to hunt the big mountain bucks here in PA.  We get into what specifically Tyler is looking for when scouting and hunting.  We get into the importance of looking into the smaller details to set yourself up for success.  This past season was also a rollercoaster type season for Tyler in that he was after a real good mature buck and had his chance but ultimately missed his opportunity.  We chatted about how he didn’t let this back luck shot tear him down and instead come back from that and kill another great buck.  We get into a heck of a lot more in this episode and hope you enjoy this one!  I appreciate Tyler for coming on and having this conversation with me. Check it out and let us know what you think!  Enjoy this fun episode and see you next week! 

Thanks again for all the support and best of luck out there and Antler Up!

Let's face it, we all need to find access to more hunting land. Your grandma's back 40 could be sold by a family member that doesn't share your passion. One year, your cherished lease might not hold the deer or turkeys you're after. The geese may totally avoid that crop field you've had permission on for years and spend their mornings on the neighbor's field. That public piece you've put so many years into scouting could be gone overnight, sold off or leased up by private parties. Permission on new ground is the only way to guard against these risks. But for many, finding new hunting ground is intimidating. 

In this episode of the Wisconsin Sportsman Podcast, Josh talks with John Roach about how John gains hunting permission on new ground. John collects hunting permission like kids used to collect baseball cards. He works hard to find the right places, maintain landowner relationships, and ultimately secure hunting rights on tons of ground with plenty of other permission-asking competition. In this episode, John and Josh discuss how they go about choosing properties to ask permission on, what makes a property stand out, and how they go about gaining permission even when others have been turned away.

In this episode, Jon Teater (Whitetail Landscapes) and Eric Lance (Hunt Science) discuss waterfowl and deer habitat and land management tactics.  Jon discusses his recent client visits and struggles he is evaluating on his own property and his strategy around drought proofing his property. Eric explains his business and podcast that listeners can consider when selecting a more in-depth discussion on the science side of hunting. Eric explains his expertise as a wildlife biologist, and his emphasis on game species such as predators, birds, and deer. Eric explains his expertise on upland birds and waterfowl and where he is headed with his career.

Eric explains the benefit of wetland habitat and resources like Ducks Unlimited. Eric explains the different wetlands systems and the differences of each and the benefits on the landscape. Eric explains the number one problem as it pertains to our habitat for waterfowl. Eric explains how to evaluate your wetland for quality. Eric discusses managing water in an easy to do manner that will amplify interests. Eric discusses the soil and the related plants that create preferences of ducks and deer.

Eric provides a layout and explanation of engineering of wetland areas for waterfowl. Eric details the benefit of duck ponds and explanation of what he prefers and how a small amount of water can go a long way. Jon and Eric discuss nesting areas and ideal cover for waterfowl and deer habitat. Eric suggests using artificial intelligence apps to evaluate plant life and consider the benefit of the respective plants to the animal that the landowner is trying to promote. Eric discusses managing existing vegetation (i.e. dogwoods) and how to promote those on the landscape.

Eric and Jon discuss hemorrhagic disease and suggest how to reduce these concerns on your property. Eric provides real life examples of how to think on a larger scale on disease and how to widen the habitat preferences to reduce populations around water resources. Eric explains why he does not use waterholes and why they may be unnecessary on your property. Jon explains the nutrient profile of plants and the difference in utilization in aquatic areas. Jon provides an aquatic plant that will provide excellent resources to deer on the landscape. Eric discusses the differences on why certain plants are eaten and a geospatial study on why deer may use certain areas over others.
