In this episode of the Hunting Gear Podcast, host Dan Johnson interviews Gregg Farrell from Tactacam about their new camera, Reveal. They discuss the company's history, the current rain situation in Wisconsin, and their personal hunting plans for the year. They then dive into the details of Tactacam's transition from action cameras to trail cameras, focusing on the reliability and ease of use of their products. They also talk about the evolution of trail cameras and the importance of not over-engineering them. Finally, they discuss the specific features and differences between the Reveal X 2.0 and Reveal X 3.0 models. The Tactacam 3.0 cameras have been redesigned from the ground up, with improvements in form factor and antenna design. The new antennas are mounted on the top of the camera and have a two-position pivot, allowing for better transport and positioning. The external antennas are necessary because the areas where the cameras are hung typically have poor cell service, and the antennas maximize signal strength. The new cameras also feature high-quality 4K photos and 1080p videos, improved image sensors for fewer false triggers, and an internal storage option that eliminates the need for SD cards. The cameras are more efficient with batteries and are priced the same as the previous models. Future updates include new accessories and an app update that will simplify the user experience.

Takeaways:

• Tactacam started as a company producing point of view cameras before transitioning to trail cameras with their Reveal line.
• The company focuses on building reliable trail cameras and providing excellent customer service.
• The Reveal cameras are designed to be easy to use, with a simple setup process and an intuitive app interface.
• Tactacam aims to strike a balance between incorporating new technology trends and maintaining ease of use for customers.
• The Reveal X 2.0 and Reveal X 3.0 models offer different features and capabilities, providing options for different user preferences. The Tactacam 3.0 cameras have been redesigned with improvements in form factor and antenna design.

On this episode of Huntavore, Nick is joined by recipe guru, Adam Berkelmans. Adam is the

author of hundreds of recipes and dishes, however our focus isn't on the recipe itself, but a

mastered dish. The guys talk about a couple of their favorites where they have made changes

and different variations to make the dish their own. Mastery is more than following the list, but

tweaking the list, going with your gut, and taking things to another level. Get ready to add a bit

of this, and a pinch of that, on this episode of Huntavore.

The conversation explores the process of mastering a recipe and making it one's own. The

hosts discuss the idea that a recipe is a living thing that can be adapted and changed to suit

personal preferences. They share their experiences of experimenting with different dishes and

making adjustments to create their own unique versions. The conversation also touches on the

importance of persistence and not giving up when trying to perfect a recipe. They highlight the

need to master the basic recipe before venturing into more complex variations. In this

conversation, Nick Otto and Adam discuss the importance of observation and adaptation in

cooking wild game. They emphasize the need to experiment with flavors and techniques to

The start of deer season openers is getting closer and closer by the day. Are you planning on a cell cam upgrade for this upcoming season? Evaluating cell cam options can be a bit overwhelming...with various trigger speeds, photo range, photo quality, etc. In today's episode, Jacob shares some of what he learned when he began examining 9 different cell cams and their respective specs. What he found was that there are some clear winners and some clear losers and today he runs through some of the categories that he used to evaluate these options for 2024.

No-till and soil health have almost become buzz words in the food plot world.  The practices themselves are sound and have a good purpose when it comes to wildlife use.  But does that mean you need to keep up with the Jones' just because someone else told you so?  This week Mitch shares his exposure to no-till food plotting, a few of the reasons why he adopted it, and shares a few hurdles you may face when making the transition.  This is all from the hip first hand experiences in Agriculture as well as food plots.  He discusses weed management, moisture management, and low budget planting equipment with practices to ensure you don't encounter the same challenges as he and many others.

In this episode of the Antler Up Podcast, host Jeremy Dinsmore is joined by Jim D’Agostino. In this conversation, Jeremy and Jim discuss their plans and preparations for the upcoming whitetail hunting season. 

Jeremy and Jim talk about their gear, including Jim's new Elite Ethos bow, and their approach to scouting and hunting. They emphasize the importance of enjoying the process and not putting too much pressure on themselves. Too many times over the years when unwanted pressure was put on by themselves nothing good came about.  So, they both share how they have kept each other in line regardless of an outcome. 

They also discuss the benefits of staying fit and active, as well as the possibility of participating in out-of-state hunting trips. Overall, they express excitement and confidence for the upcoming season. In this conversation, Jim and Jeremy discuss their recent experiences with archery shooting and 3D shoots. They talk about the importance of having a comfortable grip and how it affects their shooting accuracy. They also share their experiences with target panic and how they overcame it. 

They discuss the challenges they faced during 3D shoots and the lessons they learned. They also talk about their hunting plans for the upcoming season and the adjustments they plan to make in their hunting strategies. They touch on the topics of wind direction, access routes, and scent control. They also mention the possibility of having more Sunday hunting days in Pennsylvania and the benefits it would bring to weekend warriors like themselves.

Corey Gruver is back and he and Steve have the porch rockers humming like the treadle wheel on Grandma’s sewing machine as they talk about a wide assortment of topics this week.

Hot weather is abundant and so are summertime tales in this episode.  Recent exploits of the boys Plott dogs as well as the announcement of the upcoming nuptials of Corey’s female Goldie to Bill Shininger’s stud dog are front and center.   The talk moves to the latest accomplishments of Steve and Mark Miller’s Plott Fever in field and water events and progresses to the realm of deep-thinking about how to decide when and to which stud to breed with an admonition to owners of females “not to wait too long.” 

With Autumn Oaks less than two months away, the boys share some of their favorite humorous stories from experiences at “The Event Where History Is Made.”

This one is jam-packed with good information concerning how to improve club membership, explores the dangers of a once-common practice of climbing trees and culminates with a very interesting conversation on the importance of track dogs in the sport.  The boys discuss the all-important question “which is more important, the track dog or the tree dog?”  If you don’t listen to anything else this week, check out this portion of the podcast.  It’s good stuff!

‍

On this episode I am joined by my wife Caroline Greer. While she may not be a turkey hunter she is married to one and we have a great conversation about teamwork, marriage and turkey hunting. Caroline grew up in Ontario and had family members who hunted so she is no stranger to it although she doesn't hunt much herself. She has, however been exposed to all sorts of hunting and fishing related things. From her husband bringing home turkeys to stingray she finds a way to not only be ok with it all but also encourage it! This is one you'll want to sit down with your spouse and listen to.

Topics include: Wild game cleaning protocols, the wonders of vacuum sealing, being where you are, appreciating what you have, and hunting unselfishly.

‍

We all make mistakes in picking, handling, and training dogs. Sometimes experience goes a long way. Heath has seen dogs being washed because of shyness. He tells us more about the behavior and what to watch for. Hunting young dogs together is another topic discussed in this episode. How does selling a hound affect you? Letting go isn’t easy.

This episode of the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast is all about gear. John has three out of the ordinary hunts this year that all feature different states, terrains, weapons, and gear. John breaks these hunts down one by one and discusses the drastic differences in gear he will need for the different hunts. John will start off with an early season September muzzleloader hunt in Kansas. After doing a lot of map scouting, John learned that the area of Kansas he will be in is much more remote than he realized. This hunt will probably be a truck hunting scenario, something John has not done much of recently.

Back in Oklahoma, John drew a tag for a traditional archery only hunt which means he will need to polish his archery skills. After testing out an old recurve he had, he discovered a bent limb which makes the more powerful bow not an option. He now has to decide to stick with his 40 pound longbow, or drop some money on a new recurve. He also has to decide if he wants to stick to hunting on the ground or practice shooting a long traditional bow from a tree stand.

The last hunt of his season will take place in the cactus covered mountains of south Texas. Clothing is the main concern on this hunt. Being just off of the Rio Grande River and Mexican border, this area has some of the most unpredictable weather in the lower 48. Add long hikes mixed with hours of sitting and glassing, you just never know what you are going to end up needing to put on or take off in a moment's notice. All while possibly needing to take a 300 to 400 yard shot at any second.

The long days of summer usually leave us with a lot of time to think. Usually that's just about how much we're sweating even though we're just sitting down, but when you can get past that, it can be a great time to reflect. That's exactly what we're doing in this week's episode with the Captain of The Sportsmen's Empire ship: Dan Johnson

This week, Pierce & Dan hop on the line to talk about a little bit of everything! From the story of how Dan got his start in business and the outdoor industry, to injuries impacting hunts, saddles vs stands, getting kids involved in the outdoors, perfecting hunting strategies, and much more. Check it all out in this week's episode and have a great 4th of July weekend everyone!

On this week's episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman, Mitch is joined by Nate Sellers of Average Jack archery.  The episode dives into opening the case and dusting off your bow from last season.  We discuss how to get back into shooting shape - this includes, reps, routine, gear checks, tuning, and more.  Practice makes perfect, but what about when you don't have a lot of time to practice?  Being intentional about what you are practicing, and practicing it the correct way goes a long way if reps are frequent but short.  Small steps build confidence for shooting at game this fall - start now!

For hunters, our passion for the outdoors has led to more life-long relationships than many can count. Eighteen years ago a red Toyota pulled up and joined Heath and a good friend on a morning hunt. Today Heath and Ben talk about that day and the many following hunts. The start of a life-long friendship between Ben Gadway and Heath started that day. Join us as the stories begin.

This week on the Missouri Woods & Water Podcast we get the chance to talk with Greg Farrell with Reveal Cameras.  We talk a little about trail cam strategy this time of year and how that changes as the season nears and gets here, then we get into all the new features and things Reveal is releasing this summer.  Lots of good information this week.

How do those compare to broadheads from Slick Trck, NAP and QAD that have 400 Series Stainless Steel blades. Lastly, Jacob discusses some new broadheads from Sevr, Oz Cut, Evolution and Annihilator.

On this episode of the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast, John reveals a secret project he has been working on all spring. John grew up fishing and duck hunting on small farm ponds, so they have always held a special place in his heart. For the last couple of months, John has made it his goal to turn one particular pond into a fish and duck paradise. While growing a 10 pound plus bass in a 1 acre pond may not be realistic, John's goal is to simply maximise its potential and create a fun and exciting place for him and his friends and family to enjoy.

Almost anyone can gain access to a small farm pond, which is part of the reason John feels so passionately about this project. After a lot of research, John set out to make the best fishery possible out of a one and a half acre pond that has been in his family for about 50 years. John's other goal was to do it as cheaply as possible. Structure, water clarity, and overall fish population are the main concerns, as well as hopefully growing some edge vegetation that will make the pond more attractive for waterfowl. So if that little mud hole in the middle of a cattle pasture is all you have to work with, don't fret. Almost any water source can serve a purpose for an outdoors man or woman willing to put in a little work!

On this episode of Michigan Wild, Nate sits down with Jake Vogel for part 1 of coon hunting. They recorded this episode before their coon hunt. Nate and Jake connected 5 years ago rabbit hunting, and that's the year Jake got his first coon dog.

Now Jake is a serious houndsman and has multiple hunting dogs and has his fair share of experience chasing coons. 

In part 1 the guys discuss..

- Not growing up in a hunting family

- What it's like starting out deer and coon hunting

- Constant learning curve trying to become the best hunter and dog handler

- The thrill of watching your dog do what it loves

- How anyone can do this, just need to be motivated and have a willingness to put in the time and effort

Thanks Jake for joining Michigan Wild. We look forward to part 2!

In this episode of the Hunting Gear Podcast, Dan Johnson and Jeremy Dinsmore discuss their experiences and preferences when it comes to hunting apps and digital mapping services. They talk about the importance of detailed maps, high-resolution imagery, and the ability to view different dates and seasons. They also discuss the value of journaling features, weather information, and the ability to drop pins for scouting and planning. They mention popular hunting apps like OnX, Huntstand, Spartan Forge, and Deercast, and share their thoughts on the predictive movement algorithms offered by some of these apps. In this conversation, Dan Johnson and Jeremy discuss different hunting mapping apps, including Spartan Forge, OnX, and HuntStand. They highlight the importance of imagery and ease of use in these apps, as well as the ability to import pins and access property information. They also mention the value of features like 3D imagery, topo lines, and the ability to track your location. While each app has its strengths and weaknesses, they both agree that having a reliable and user-friendly map is essential for efficient and successful hunting.

Takeaways:

• Detailed maps and high-resolution imagery are important features to look for in a hunting app
• Journaling features can be useful for recording hunting data and details
• Weather information is a standard feature in most hunting apps
• The ability to drop pins and track distances can help with scouting and planning
• Predictive movement algorithms may not be a significant factor for some hunters Having a reliable and user-friendly hunting mapping app is essential for efficient and successful hunting.
• Imagery and ease of use are important factors to consider when choosing a hunting mapping app.
• The ability to import pins and access property information can be valuable for planning hunting trips.
• Features like 3D imagery and topo lines can provide additional insights into the terrain and deer movement.
• Tracking your location accurately can help you navigate and make informed decisions while hunting.

John Hudspeth discusses hunting in Oklahoma and Texas, including the recent increase in non-resident hunting prices in Oklahoma. He also talks about the challenges of hunting with a young child and the impact of weather conditions on deer populations. The conversation then shifts to the topic of chronic wasting disease (CWD) and Oklahoma's plan to release captive deer that are deemed CWD-resistant into the wild. The conversation revolves around Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) and the proposed plan in Oklahoma to release deer that are resistant to CWD. The hosts discuss the ethics of charging people for these deer and whether it should be done for the greater good instead of for profit. They also question the effectiveness of using captive deer to solve the CWD problem and express concerns about the potential impact on the genetics of the deer population. The conversation touches on other topics such as the prevalence of CWD in Oklahoma, the lack of testing facilities, and the potential effects of agricultural chemicals on deer and the environment.

Takeaways:

• Non-resident hunting prices in Oklahoma have increased, making it less affordable for out-of-state hunters.
• Hunting with a young child can be challenging, requiring shorter trips and more strategic planning.
• Weather conditions, such as droughts, can impact deer populations and antler growth.
• Oklahoma has a plan to release captive deer that are deemed CWD-resistant into the wild to combat chronic wasting disease. The plan to release deer resistant to CWD in Oklahoma raises ethical questions about charging people for these deer and whether it should be done for the greater good instead of for profit.
• Using captive deer to solve the CWD problem raises concerns about the potential impact on the genetics of the deer population.
• There is a lack of testing facilities for CWD in Oklahoma, which hinders accurate data collection and understanding of the extent of the problem.
• The potential effects of agricultural chemicals on deer and the environment are a cause for concern and warrant further investigation.

Hunter Roenfeldt, co-host of the Duck Gun Podcast, joins Brian on the show. Hunter grew up hunting in Iowa near the Mississippi River with his Dad. We talk about what it was like learning to waterfowl hunt in that part of the country. We discuss his experiences with the boats they have used over the years on the Mississippi, the type of ducks they chase there and his love for Canvasbacks. We chat about how he became the co-host of the Duck Gun Podcast and also how he got involved in the Duck Gun Chronicles YouTube channel. We also get into his multiple season grind that averages over 50 hunts per season. And of course we dive deep into his tactics and tips that keep him successful over a 50+ hunt grind.

On this episode of the Nine Finger Chronicles, Adam Parr joins Dan to discuss their experiences with elk hunting in Colorado. They catch up on life and reminisce about past hunting trips. They also discuss the recent law change in Colorado that restricts non-residents from buying over-the-counter archery elk tags. The conversation explores the increase in hunting pressure from non-residents and the impact it has on the quality of the hunt for residents. Both Dan and Adam express their preference for waiting and hunting in draw units to ensure a more enjoyable and successful hunting experience. The conversation discusses the need to balance the quantity and quality of hunting experiences in Colorado. Adam and Dan explore the increasing number of non-resident hunters and the impact it has on resident hunters. They discuss the potential solutions, such as limiting non-resident tags and increasing tag prices for residents. The guys touch on the importance of funding conservation efforts through hunting revenue. They reflect on their own hunting experiences in Colorado and how the landscape has changed over the years.

Takeaways:

• The increase in hunting pressure from non-residents in Colorado has led to a decline in the quality of the hunt for residents.
• Residents are advocating for changes in the law to prioritize their hunting experiences and ensure a better quality hunt.
• Both Dan and Adam prefer waiting and hunting in draw units to avoid the overcrowding and enjoy a more enjoyable and successful hunting experience.
• The law change in Colorado restricts non-residents from buying over-the-counter archery elk tags, which aims to address the overcrowding issue.
• Residents believe that the law change will help improve the quality of the hunt for both residents and non-residents. Balancing the quantity and quality of hunting experiences is crucial in Colorado.
• Limiting non-resident tags and increasing tag prices for residents may be potential solutions.
• Funding conservation efforts through hunting revenue is important.
• The hosts reflect on the changing landscape of hunting in Colorado and the impact on their own experiences.

On this week's episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman we are kicking things off in a different style.  While we are cruising through summer, we still have a ways off before the fall.  Work, honey-do list, and summer time activities are still the bulk focus of our time.  Therefore, if success in fall is to happen, it needs to be done by maximizing the little time we have to prepare and staying focused.  Mitch and the guest will set a timer for 30 minutes and dive into a topic.  When the timer runs out, it's back to the real world.  Take the same logic with your summer preparation and be deliberate!

This week's guest is Dan Johnson, host of the Nine Finger Chronicles and leader of Sportsmen's Empire Podcast Network.  Just because Dan works "in the industry," does not mean he is blessed with unlimited time to prepare each fall and kill tons of game.  He has a family and a business that requires his undivided attention all year.  Therefore, in order to stay sane in the hunting world, he has to be specific when setting goals and expectations.  This means being realistic and achievable, and yet also finding satisfaction.  Around this framework, we will discuss specifics of preparation for hunting at home and out-of-state trips with what little free time he has available.

‍

In this episode of the Antler Up Podcast, host Jeremy Dinsmore is joined by Andy May. This episode is the first of many where Jeremy will have guests discussing specific topics where the plan is to “Keep it Simple!”  Too many times it seems that “we” as hunters overcomplicate things and make tasks more challenging than they need to be! So, tune into not only this episode but the next couple weeks with guests from all over as they break topics down by “Keeping it Simple!” 

This episode is filled with valuable insights emphasizing the importance of continuous learning and personal growth in the field. Andy shares that experiences and challenges often outweigh the significance of the size of bucks harvested. Simplifying gear and equipment can lead to greater efficiency and effectiveness, and Andy provides tips such as using a multi-pin sight and hinge release to enhance shot execution and accuracy. He advocates aiming at larger targets to reduce tension and improve accuracy, as well as practicing shot selection and patience for better performance during hunts.

Andy also discusses the critical role of controlling heart rate and practicing from various angles to prepare for real hunting scenarios. He underscores the importance of realistic practice in archery and bowhunting, accurate and ethical shot placement, and proper bow alignment. Utilizing historical data and thorough scouting can significantly increase hunting success. Patience and confidence in one’s hunting strategies are crucial for efficiency, while slowing down the shot process and focusing on execution can lead to improved accuracy. Andy believes that challenging oneself both physically and mentally, while maintaining simplicity, can result in positive hunting outcomes. Tune in to gain deeper insights into Andy May’s hunting philosophies and practical tips for becoming a more effective and ethical hunter.

So, grab your gear, sit back, and join us on this episode as we Antler Up with Andy May on today's episode of the Antler Up Podcast.

Every year a new batch of broadheads hit the market and for whatever reason, it excites us as we imagine how much more efficient and effective a new broadhead could be when compared to our current broadhead set up. Expandable or mechanical broadheads are especially interesting as there are new ways in which these heads deploy a variety of blades. In today's episode, Jacob shares his thoughts on his recent evaluation of 6 different expandable broadheads: Sevr 2.0, Sevr 1.75, Mega Meat, Dead Meat, Grim Reaper Whitetail Special, and Rage Hypodermic NC + P.

Today I am joined by Gerard Van Den Boogaard, he is a hunting guide in Alberta and Ontario, Canada. Gerard grew up on a farm in a rural part of Canada, he was introduced to hunting at a young age and was hooked instantly. As he began hunting more and more he naturally transitioned into guiding his buddy's when he had tagged out. Years later he got in contact with Mike's Outfitting and started work as a guide for spring bear. This year Gerard started a new adventure, guiding for Turkeys in Ontario. We have a great chat about all sorts of interesting things and I'm sure you're gonna enjoy this episode!

Caden Riley is an extraordinary young man.  At nineteen years of age, the Georgia coon hunter has reached levels of vision for, and an understanding of, our sport usually attained by individuals well beyond his years.  In a word, Caden is a young hunter who cares.

Caden Riley is an extraordinary young man.  At nineteen years of age, the Georgia coon hunter has reached levels of vision for, and an understanding of, our sport usually attained by individuals well beyond his years.  In a word, Caden is a young hunter who cares.

Desiring to do something to stimulate activity and participation in coon hunting among Georgia’s youth, Riley approached Professional Kennel Club’s National Youth Director Chris Freiberger for ideas.  The result is the Peach State Shootout series of qualifying events held throughout the summer that will advance the overall winners to a championship to be held in the fall.

This episode spotlights coon hunting from the perspective of a young man that totally enjoys and totally gets it.  You are going to be energized by the demeanor and knowledge of a young man possessed of ways of thinking usually reserved for hunters much older than he.  If you love the sport and I know you do, you are going to especially enjoy it from the perspective of Caden Riley.

This week on the Missouri Woods & Water Podcast we get the chance to talk with The Hunting Public's very own Aaron Warbritton about what it means to be a dad in the outdoors world.  I think all of us outdoor parents can agree that there is nothing like taking your kids on their first hunt, or when they harvest their first deer or turkey, or just walking around the woods with them.  In today's show we talk about all that kind of stuff with Aaron and more.  It's a great talk with a great guy that just leads to one conclusion......take your kids hunting and fishing!!!  Thanks for listening!

In this episode, Jon Teater (Whitetail Landscapes) and Steve Barscz (Client) discuss his recent consulting visit and the changes that ensued during and after the onsite support.  Steve discusses why he hired Whitetail Landscape, the homework and process of evaluating a consultant, and dream of setting up an ideal hunting property in a tough to hunt area. Steve discusses buying a home with land and what his expectations are for his new property.

Steve and Jon discuss setting up bedding areas, deer movement, trails, food plots, atv and tractor trails, wetlands and managing a diverse habitat. Steve discusses doing the work and guidance around structuring bedding areas. Steve explained how his design and layout (map) aligned with the implementation strategy. Steve utilized Josh Streichert (JWS Logging) to work through implementation and enhancement of habitat, with the goal of creating a better ecology and environment for better hunting.

Effectively E-Scouting is a hill (pun intended) that for some, seems nearly impossible to climb. But like everything outdoors, it can be as complicated or as simple as you want to make it, and having someone who really knows what they're doing to help break things down for you can make a world of difference. That's why this week, we're joined by the map master himself, Jared Larsen of onX Hunt!

In this week's episode the guys cover a wide range of topics from crossing paths with wardens, getting into waterfowl hunting, not being afraid to go for a swim every once in a while, tricks to utilizing water access safely, developing a scouting process, the importance of utilizing onX features deliberately, and even some ethical dilemmas of technology in the outdoor space. All that and more in this week's episode!

Brandon and Tyler Travis joined Michigan Wild this week. They are the first set of twins to join the podcast and they didn't disappoint. Brandon is a returning guest and along with his brother they both help edit episodes for Vital Shot Productions. Vital Shot is a TV show that is on local TV here in Michigan along with the Pursuit Channel. New episodes start airing the first weekend in July. 

The guys start the episode with the backstory of Vital Shot and their roles with the company. However it doesn't take long for the conversation to steer towards all things whitetails. All the guys have experienced a change in the quality of deer hunting in Michigan over the past few years and which has them excited for the next 10 years. The topic of targeting enough does and even changing into a one buck state were covered.

Overall a great conversation with like minded hunters who love pursuing whitetails with their bows. A fun time getting to know the Travis brothers more and look forward to having them on more in the future.

This week on the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast John is joined by Brian Halbleid of the Migration Waterfowl Podcast. A Pennsylvania native, Brian grew up deer hunting like most young boys and girls in the Keystone state. It wasn't until a little later in life that he was introduced to duck hunting and he hasn't looked back since. John and Brian talk about some of the differences in hunting northern vs southern ducks, and how the timing of when things get good may differ. They touch on a little bit of everything, including decoy spread layout, when to use or not use spinning wing decoys, and the advancement of motion decoys over the years. 

Towards the end of the episode, John couldn't help but talk about deer a little bit. Brian discusses how the human population has changed hunting in his area in recent years, but that it's not all bad change. He also talks about what a difference antler point restrictions have made on the trophy quality in the state, and how education has led to more hunters passing younger bucks.
