On this episode of The Nomadic Outdoorsman, Dan talks with Aaron Olson from Next Step outdoors about his progression as a hunter and to hear how the 2023 season turned out.

Growing up in the picturesque landscapes of Northern Michigan, Aaron Olsen discovered a love for the great outdoors early on. At the age of 12, he began bowhunting whitetail deer, honing his skills and building a deep connection with nature. During his college years, Aaron dedicated much of his time to playing college basketball, immersing himself in the sport. However, post-college, he reignited his passion for deer hunting, taking it to new levels of enthusiasm.

In 2017, Aaron took a significant step by founding the "Next Step Outdoors" YouTube channel. This platform became his canvas to share the knowledge he gained over the years, aiming to assist fellow hunting enthusiasts and expedite their learning curve. Just over a year ago, fueled by a strong desire to live his passion, Aaron made the courageous decision to leave his full-time corporate job and fully commit to building the channel. Since then, he's been on an exciting journey, traveling the country in pursuit of his hunting dreams and sharing the thrill of the chase with a growing community of like-minded individuals.

Harvesting a bear within a lifetime in Pennsylvania is an accomplishment by most hunter's standards.  However, doing so in regularity degrades the theory many say to a person's success - luck.  On this week's episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman we chat with Ryan Hausman.  Ryan has harvested a bear the last five years in a row with rifle, muzzleloader, and archery equipment.  One of his bears topped out at 615 lbs field dressed!

This episode revolves all around Ryan's stories and experiences.  There is nothing lacking from the entertainment department in this episode.  Some of the situations Ryan has found himself have turned into a rodeo.  But there is also a lot to take away and use within your own bear hunting schemes.  Patience, thoroughly scan thick cover, and place yourself where there is abundant food to name a few.  Hopefully Ryan's experience harvesting five bears helps you harvest one for yourself!  Check out the article that was written after Ryan harvested bear number five.

In this episode, Jon Teater (Whitetail Landscapes) and Roger Samson (REP-Canada) discuss improved warm season grass varieties that are available to habitat managers.  Roger explains his experience and natural grasses. Roger goes over the history of Switchgrass and other varieties like Cave in Rock and Blackwell. Roger details the original focus of switchgrass and benefits of cattle, mining locations, reclamation, mulching, and biofuels.

Roger explains the evolution of switchgrass, prior switchgrass problems such as slow emergence, morphology, seedling vigor, etc. Roger worked to solve these issues, taking 30 years to establish a breeding program that created taller, erect, and quick emergence grasses. Roger and Jon discuss wildlife uses and the benefits to our soil, and soil habitat.

Roger explains the advanced developed varieties of switchgrass, RC Big Rock and RC Tecumseh, and the benefits compared to prior varieties. Roger explains the differences in physical characteristics and the purpose behind each, and what varieties would be adapted to specific site conditions (rain, heat, etc.).  Jon and Roger dialogue about developing plants that can stand taller, more erect, and withstand ice and snow loads.

Roger discusses new planting methods and a new variety of big bluestem variety that will soon be in the market. Roger details specifics on plant spacing and why solid seeding stands may not be the best option. Roger discusses options for planting that provides ideal spacing for ground birds (turkey).

Roger discusses the cost variances of switchgrass versus other options like miscanthus, specifically miscanthus giganteus. Roger explains the performance variances versus miscanthus and the morphology as compared to other non-native plants. Roger details all the benefits of switchgrass why these next generation varieties outcompete other grass types. Roger explains more on herbicides, combinations of plantings and frost seeding as an option.

28 weeks... yep, that's how far we have to go until we can sneak out in the woods, plant our butts in a tree and hope for the big one to come by. It might feel too soon to let thoughts of booners enter your dreams, or allow your focus to drift from work as you try to picture how you'll slip in to send an arrow at your target buck. For many die-hards though, that couldn't be further from the truth as this is prime time for getting in the woods to do some post-season scouting.

This week, Pierce hops on the line once again with big buck killer Jacob Sklenar to talk about how he approaches post-season scouting, and some of the tips, tricks and hacks he uses to maximize his time in the woods and learn an area right now, to prep for fall. Jacob discusses what he looks for when selecting a property, what he believes are the most over and underrated land features, how he prioritizes sign when in the field, and even discusses thermals, scent control and how good a deer's sense of smell really is. All that and more on this week's episode!

Do yourself a massive favor and grab your notebook, and then head on over to Jacob's YouTube Channel, The Wild Calling to see the phenomenal content he's putting out, and follow along with his adventures on Instagram and Facebook at The Wild Calling Outdoors

This week's episode on Michigan Wild is with David (DJ) Riley. David is the co-host of The Fall Podcast with Arron Bleise and he loves chasing whitetails with his bow. Even though David and Nate both love targeting big mature whitetails they explain how they are more than just big buck killers. Not being complacent and striving to become better bowhunters transitions to hunting higher age class deer. However David has an all or nothing approach and realizes how much effort it takes each year. David does find success through scouting, being mobile in the fall, and always being a student of the game. 

Overall a top notch episode with an even better guest!

One thing that makes Oklahoma so unique is its wide variety of game animals. This week on the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast, John talks with Keith Hagen of Southern Plains Taxidermy about hunting Oklahoma mule deer. Keith grew up hunting whitetails like most of us, but after spending some time chasing mule deer in western Oklahoma and Texas, they have become a huge part of his yearly hunting routine. Keith strictly hunts mule deer with a bow, making it all the more challenging.

Keith and John go over some of the differences in mule deer behavior, and the differences in hunting them versus whitetails. Keith talks about his equipment and what he thinks is important for specifically hunting Oklahoma mule deer as opposed to states further west. Keith also uses his experience as a taxidermist to give some pointers on field care for your trophy if you plan to get it mounted, and some good and bad strategies for getting your animal out in the sandy brush country of the Oklahoma Panhandle.

Nick Muckerman is freelance outdoor writer, houndsman, professional bird dog trainer and school principal.

Chris was browsing articles on Field Ethos when he came across an article about hunting mountain lions with hounds.  Of course, he had to read that one. What Chris found was a fascinating, well written article that took a deeper dive into the nuances of hunting mountain lions written by Nick. The article was almost poetic and it was full of articulate details.

Nick Joins Chris on this edition of Houndsman XP on the Xtreme Performance Outdoor Network for an energetic conversation about hounds, bird dogs, lion hunting and how we must share our stories to the world.

This week's episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman is quite a bit different from normal.  Mitch rides solo and just talks about life during the winter months.  To cut it truthfully, February sucks.  Not a lot is happening if you're a deer hunter, and the reality is most of us do not have the ability to devote a lot of time to hunting, considering the months of neglect other things in life get while hunting season goes throughout fall.  

Most shows are doing a great job of keeping the fire lit for the upcoming season.  Mitch envies them, because for many it's everything we have to keep scraping by sanely this time of year!   Mitch reflects on how the Pennsylvania Woodsman began, and discusses the difficulty and frustration experienced along the way.  That begs the question, why is it here and where is it going?  Don't worry, this episode isn't all doom and gloom.  Just the reality that sometimes things get hard!  So if February has been tough on you, you're not alone.  

‍

As you plan your out of state hunts for this upcoming fall, what type of hunting partner do you have? Are they a BIG hunt partner or a little hunt partner? What are your S.M.A.R.T. objectives for your out of state hunt and how does your objective align to your hunting partners objective? Or, do they align at all? In this episode, Jacob offers a series of questions to help you determine if they are BIG hunt or little hunt partners.

If we want to continue our tradition and way of life in the hound world, we are going to have to come together. On this episode, Heath talks with James Hudson from the Hounds Tales Podcast, who is from central Virginia. They talk about breaking barriers, representing houndsman and as the Hounds Tales Podcast says shining a good light on all things hounds. Don’t worry there’s plenty of dog talk mixed in here. Join us on the Journey as we take this trip together.

Although the calendar may not reflect Spring being close, the forecast certainly does and for many anglers that means one thing:  Walleyes! This week, Pierce sits down with Southeastern Wisconsin native, and avid walleye angler, Bryce Becker to talk about everything you need to know to target these famously finicky fish!

Bryce grew up in Waukesha County and has been targeting walleye with his grandfather for about as long as he can remember. Throughout that time, he honed and perfected his tactics to consistently catch these low-light "gravel snakes" everywhere from his local rivers in the southern part of the state, clear on up to the famous lakes of the Northwoods. In this episode, Bryce breaks down how walleyes see, when they are most active, what they feed on, the best habitat and conditions for targeting these fish, and so much more! Whether you're a lifelong walleye angler like Bryce or a total walleye novice like Pierce, you're going to learn something in this episode to help get you on fish this spring!

On today’s show with GunBroker.com, we’re at SHOT Show joined by Kevin Reese of Pulsar and Jeff Murray from Sightmark. We open the episode diving into thermal optics and the explosion in the outdoor scene over the last few years. A huge push came from predator hunting videos skyrocketing in popularity on YouTube, Instagram, and other venues. Predator and hog hunting gave outdoorsmen a way to utilize their year long hunting leases by giving hunters something to do during the off-season plus a way to keep the predator population in control. Make sure to tune into this episode presented by GunBroker.com to hear all about thermal optics from the view of Kevin and Jeff!

Closing out we dive into how much thermal optics have changed over the years. It wasn’t that long ago when thermal optics used to weigh more than your firearm did. Today’s thermal technology has shrunk dramatically which allows thermal hunters to be way more mobile than in days past. We discuss the difference between digital night vision and thermal, with Kevin’s opinion that almost everyone who tries thermal never wants to go back! While thermal and night vision alone are not cheap to get into, one of the good things is most of the optics if you invest in a good product truly do hold their value for when you want to upgrade in the future. Logan asks the guys their favorite thermal optic, the guys give the run-down of their favorite and why exactly they like it, you don’t want to miss this!

The Local Legend or the World's Worst Bowhunter Adam Miller joined Michigan Wild this week. Adam and Nate had a great conversation going over Adam's season, some mobile hunting gear, how the World's Worst Bowhunter came to be and why he insists on hunting with his trad bow for Michigan's gun opener.

 Adam did end up finding success this season in Kansas and in typical fashion for Adam it was a rodeo and got a little western. Since Adam is very involved in mobile hunting gear, Nate took the opportunity to ask him for some insight on some products. It's a great time to be in the market for gear because there are a plethora of options out there. Overall a great episode with lots of laughs and funny stories and some flat out bad luck. 

Thanks Adam for joining Michigan Wild. Go follow Bowhunter Chronicles to learn more and give his podcast a listen. It's filled with awesome guests and tons of real world experiences.

This week on the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast, John takes some time to cover a wide variety of topics that have been on his mind. First up are a few exciting events coming up that any outdoor enthusiast should be attending. After that, John digs into the 2023-24 deer harvest numbers published by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservations, and a new thought he has on why this deer season seemed a little odd. John also discusses some turkey harvest numbers and why he is optimistic about this upcoming spring season.

After nerding out on some numbers, John goes over a recent news article he came across about how wild hogs may be good for the environment. While hogs have their place, John is afraid this particular article had a hidden agenda in its midst. To round things off John touches on a few other topics like using forestry mulchers on hunting properties, preference points, and planning ahead for this upcoming hunting season.

Tanner Herr, Ed Barnes and Cody Jenkins hunt the Rockin’ 4D Tournament with Clay Mindemann, Luke and Ty.  It was an exhausting three day ordeal hunting in central Oklahoma.  Despite getting away from the mountains of Northeast Oklahoma and going where it is relatively flat we still ended up in some rough hills wearing out our boot leather.  We caught some good hogs but nothing big enough to put us over the edge and into the winners circle. On the drive home we recorded a run down of the hunt and ideas for future hog hunts.

Topics discussed:

Logistics of hunting tournaments

New terrain

Hog/catfish/coon contest

Footlong coneys

Hunting public land can be incredibly challenging and rewarding. But, hunting private land offers it's own set of challenges and opportunities. As was discussed in the previous episode, now is the time to start reaching out to land owners to get permission to hunt this upcoming fall. In this episode, Jacob shares a strategy in targeting certain types of farms, and an accompanying tactic that has worked for him and could open some doors for you.

On this episode of the Hunting Gear Podcast, Dan talks with Bryan Broderick of Day Six Gear about a couple new products they have recently released. The guys kick off the episode by talking about Bryan's epic season behind the bow filling all of his tags. Then, Bryan talks about some of his favorite pieces of hunting gear, including a highly recommended pair of boots and the famous whisker biscuit.

On this episode of The Nomadic Outdoorsman, Dan talks with Nine Finger Chronicles and Sportsmen’s Empire podcast host Dan Johnson about a potential 2024 Alaska hunt.

Dan Johnson is the owner of the Sportsmen’s Empire podcast network. Although he has had the dream of hunting caribou and moose in Alaska since he was a kid, the trip has yet to happen. Dan and Dan sit down to talk about making the hunt happen this fall as they go over the cost and logistics behind a backcountry trip to Alaska. Dan Johnson shares that his number one bucket list hunt is caribou and the two figure out if they can put the pieces in place before September.

On this episode of Huntavore, Nick is joined by James Zandstra of The Fair Chase Podcast.
This past fall, James went on an epic adventure, hunting a Moose in BC, Canada. On top of
that, determined to bring the whole moose back to his own freezer here in Michigan, all by
driving. While finding and shooting the moose was one way up the mountain, getting the prize
back home is the way down. If you are thinking about a bountiful long distance meat hunt, then
this is the episode for you. Lots of heavy hauling on this episode of Huntavore.
James shares his experience of hunting moose in British Columbia. He discusses the
preparations he made for the hunting season and the planning involved in going on a moose
hunt. James also talks about the challenges of transporting the moose meat back home and the
process of processing the moose. He shares an exciting encounter with a grizzly bear and
reflects on the overall hunt. James concludes by recommending future hunts and the joy of
sharing the moose meat with others. James discusses his experience making sausage from
deer meat and shares his recipe. He also talks about his love for charcuterie and recalls a
memorable podcast episode with a charcuterie board. James then mentions his involvement in
creating hunting memes and his use of a recurve bow.
Takeaways: Proper planning and preparation are essential for a successful hunting season.
Transporting and processing the meat after a hunt can be challenging but rewarding.
Encounters with wildlife, such as grizzly bears, add excitement and adventure to the hunting
experience. Sharing the meat with others is a fulfilling way to enjoy the fruits of a successful
hunt. Making sausage from wild game meat can be a rewarding and enjoyable experience.
Charcuterie boards can be a creative and impressive way to showcase homemade cured
meats. Creating hunting memes can be a fun way to engage with the hunting community on
social media. Using a recurve bow adds an extra challenge and enjoyment to hunting.

On today’s show with GunBroker.com, we’re at SHOT Show joined by Louie Tuminaro, aka The Gunfather. Starting out Logan dives into the background of Louie’s restoration business, which you can see in episodes of the Outdoor Channel series, The Gunfather. Starting out on his show, Louie did a ton of Colt restorations, enough to the point that it caught the attention of Colt which has led them to being an Authorized Colt Service and Restoration Center! Louie gives us a rundown of what exactly they do under “restoration,” his biggest priority is doing the right service for people even if that means turning down a restoration on a beautiful firearm because it would be better suited left in the condition sent to him. Make sure to listen in to this episode Presented by GunBroker.com to hear all about Louie and The Gunfather: Restorations!

Next up, Louie dives into the process of restoring a gun to right-off-the-line, brand new condition! He covers the entire process from sanding in the right direction, to sourcing the parts that takes the firearm back to day one condition. We have a discussion on where he sources parts, why he sources the original parts, and how much of a difference it makes doing a complete date period restoration. We discuss the values of firearms such as the Colt 1911 in different states, including modified and completely restored. You may be surprised at just how much the values vary depending on what state the firearm is in at the time. Louie nails the values directly on the head with how they differ from one to the other.

Closing out, we discuss using laser engraving during restoration. Logan cringed a bit when he first saw a laser engraver going on a firearm restoration, however Louie discusses how his business uses them versus using roll marks to restore the firearm. Louie emphasizes how he and his business really pour their all into the restorations they do, with the customer’s happiness being the absolute end goal. This is not an episode you’re going to want to miss!

On this week's episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman, Mitch is joined by PA hunter Howie Miller.  Howie works his tail off in and out of the field to make the most of his time in the woods.  Howie reflects on the 2023 grind of a season where he played cat and mouse with a dandy buck throughout the fall.  Howie lives in the southern half of the state, but chooses to hunt as much as possible around his camp in the northern portion of PA.  This creates challenges when hunting deer that are not resident to your living quarters.

Howie wrapped his tag around a stud buck during the first week of the Pennsylvania rifle season.  Thrilled to no end, we reflect on the story, successes, and lessons learned throughout a satisfying fall.  Lastly, we discuss a new journey which began late last summer; managing a newly purchased property.  Howie has as much enjoyment working in his own dirt as he does scouting public land.  We discuss the new challenges and goals he has moving forward into the next season.  Thanks for tuning in!

Today’s show opens up with Brad talking about an interesting topic he read about before hopping on the podcast today. The topic is about merchant codes, and how states like California and New York are potentially looking at tracking them for firearm retailers so they can track that you bought a firearm. The problem with this is with retailers like Bass Pro, it would be almost impossible to track whether you bought a firearm or an item like a boat when using merchant codes, so it would be an incredibly hard thing to do. Make sure to tune in to this episode Sponsored by GunBroker.com to hear our conversation about it and let us know what your opinion on it would be!

Next up Jacob talks about his recent weekend out trail racing. It was a super cool experience with this trail running event allowing people to bring their dogs with them, he did a seven mile run and finished with a little gas left so he definitely wants to tackle a longer run next time! Arica spent some time outdoors with her son and found a really nice spot to fish in! We also discuss the upcoming turkey season and everyone’s plans to hopefully get after one. Closing out Dan talks about his new bow for this upcoming season and his planned weekend to watch the total solar eclipse coming up soon!

In this episode, Jon Teater (Whitetail Landscapes), discusses a hat giveaway this week from Whitetail Company. If you want to get in on the giveaway, please email me jon@whitetaillandscapes.com. This week Greg Berndtson (Berndtson Timber Management) and Jon talk forestry, logging, and deer. Greg is a forester and logger, and provides his background and management tactics that are intended to evolve properties as we know it. Greg explains the equipment he uses afield to manage his jobs to ensure he can perform and work is done efficiently.

Jon discusses ecological restoration, low grade timber and goal setting. Greg explains how to approach valuing timber and future potential. Greg explains what is good versus bad timber and what tree species we may want to keep or get rid of your property. Greg talks about diversity and what species in his region are considered low grade and explains the market option for low grade. Greg talks about steering the forest in a healthy direction and what you can do as a landowner.

Greg explains the human dynamic of property management, evaluating a property and why our forests need good work to ensure that commercial harvest creates better quality down the road. Greg explains the step-by-step process to changing the forest, and how he approaches the understory and overstory of our woodlots to improve areas for silviculture purposes. Greg mentions the legacy impacts of deer browse and harm it creates to better quality habitat that most are trying to develop.

Greg and Jon discuss forest health and looking at individual trees to determine what trees we want to keep on the landscape. Greg provides a formula on general and specific tree species to consider when making decisions to cut or leave. Greg explains the volume (in tonnage) that he would consider reasonable for considering a low-grade timber job. Greg the benefits of his business for clients and what doing good forestry means to him. Greg and Jon end with discussions around building a better property around an equation of smart timber management, resulting in better deer and deer habitat.

On today’s show with GunBroker.com, we’re at SHOT Show joined by Larry Zanoff from Independent Studio Services to talk all about movie firearms! Opening up, Larry gives us a history of Independent Studio Services, which is the largest prop house in North America, and most likely in the world, with that also including the largest armory of firearms. One of the largest industries for them has moved towards video games, ISS provides scans of firearms and also the sounds for each firearm. While firearms are a huge portion of ISS, they are indeed a full-service prop house that reaches worldwide. Make sure to tune in to this episode presented by GunBroker.com to hear all about Independent Studio Services and what services they provide to the media industry!

Next up, Logan asks about recent movies or work that ISS firearms were showcased in. Larry gives a run down on some of the TV shows and movies that ISS has provided firearms for, including huge titles like the Marvel Universe! During a typical year, ISS will provide 75 -80% of the firearms for the media industry. Dan asks how it works if a firearm or firearm accessory is banned in a country and needs to be used for filming in the country. In that case they will use rubber and replica firearms to get the shots needed. Larry also tells us his history of how he became an armorer for Independent Studio Services and got involved doing what he does now.

Closing out we talk about how armorers interact with actors on the set of films. The armorer is always there during the scenes and is supposed to be the first person on set after cut has been called to remove the firearm from the actor. Larry talks about how important it is to build an early rapport with the actors so that everything flows smoothly on set. Logan also asks what the most difficult firearm to convert to fire blanks would be. Larry tells us the most difficult ones to make fire blanks are long recoil firearms. Larry’s goal is to try to keep the gun as close to real as possible so that on screen it all looks seamless. Be sure to listen in to this episode to hear all about movie firearms and Independent Studio Services involvement in the industry!

You never know how or when you'll cross paths with awesome people but when it happens, you can't help but feel lucky. That happened for Pierce last week as he met Jeff Hintz at the BHA Northern Icebreaker Banquet, after raffling off a guest slot on the show to raise money for BHA. 

Jeff is a lifelong outdoorsman, hunting mentor, and current member of Wisconsin's Conservation Congress. In this episode, Pierce & Jeff talk about Jeff's upbringing in the southeastern corner of the state, how he got to be a pretty darn good shot by shooting rats out on the farm, who Jeff's mentors were and how he's transitioned into serving as a mentor himself, BHA, and the inner workings of the Conservation Congress and how folks like you can make your voices heard. All that and more on this week's episode! 

Big thanks to all members of the Wisconsin BHA chapter for putting on such a fantastic event to bring outdoorsmen and women together to share stories, build camaraderie and raffle off some awesome prizes for a great cause!

On this episode of the Nine Finger Chronicles, Dan interviews upstate New York resident Justin Taylor about the difference between hunting ag ground and big woods deer. Justin explains that hunting big woods bucks is not easy and takes a certain skill set to get within shooting range of a big buck. In northern New York, Justin tells us that 130 class buck is a big deal. Back in the late 1800's homesteaders planted apple trees near their homes, now, when scouting for places to hunt, Justin looks for these old homesteads and the apple trees that remain. The guys also break down big woods deer behavior, how they move through the terrain, and of course food sources.

In the BS portion of this episode, the guys share their thoughts abut the direction we are going with hunting, and how hunting is becoming a pay to play activity. Greed for big horns, and more acres per hunter resulting in over populated public, are causing many of us to struggle finding access for our hunting future. Enjoy and share!
