In this episode, The Troy Fowler discusses the critical elements of hunting, focusing on the roles of arrows and bows in the process of taking down deer. The discussion delves into the technical aspects of hunting equipment, particularly the importance of broadheads and inserts, and challenges common misconceptions about what truly contributes to a successful hunt. Troy also informs Nick of why there was no accumulation of blood between muscles, as the holes were not interrupted by other layers of tissue, allowing for more side meat harvest.

Arrows and bows both play crucial roles in hunting, each contributing uniquely to a hunter’s success. The choice of broadhead can significantly impact performance, making it important for hunters to understand the mechanics behind their equipment. Misconceptions about hunting gear often lead to poor decisions in the field, emphasizing the need for proper education and experience. Factors such as the weight of inserts and broadheads must be carefully considered to achieve optimal balance and accuracy. Beyond gear selection, effective hunting also relies on a solid understanding of animal anatomy to ensure ethical and efficient harvests. The debate between the importance of arrows versus bows continues among hunters, but one thing remains clear—quality equipment and a deep knowledge of its use can greatly enhance the hunting experience. Ultimately, hunters who prioritize understanding their gear and continually educate themselves on hunting techniques are the most likely to find consistent success.

In this solo episode, Jeremy Dinsmore checks in from the heart of Pennsylvania’s October woods to share where his 2025 season stands so far. From early-season encounters to the sting of a neighbor tagging the mature buck he’d been watching all summer, Jeremy breaks down the highs, lows, and lessons learned along the way. He unpacks how shifting food sources, scrape activity, and cold fronts are changing deer movement and what that means for his next moves as the pre-rut kicks in.

Jeremy also revisits some of his favorite past Antler Up conversations from hunters like Steve Sherk Jr., Brandon Barlow, Rich Yoder, and Beau Martonik—using their October insights on patience, pressure, and adaptability to frame his own mid-season mindset. He wraps up with a look ahead at his plans for late-October in PA, rut hunts at camp, and his upcoming Ohio trip before rifle season. Whether you’re grinding through the lull or gearing up for the rut, this episode delivers real-time perspective from the middle of the season.

In this episode, Nick Otto discusses five essential steps to ensure the best quality venison after
a successful hunt. He emphasizes the importance of shot placement, quick recovery, thorough
field dressing, proper cleaning and chilling, and effective packing and freezing methods. Each
step is crucial for maintaining the quality of the meat and ensuring a successful outcome from
the hunt.
The hardest part of hunting is often getting on the animal, as it requires patience, skill, and
understanding of wildlife behavior. Once the opportunity arises, shot placement becomes crucial
for ensuring a quick, ethical dispatch and maintaining the quality of the meat. After the shot, a
fast recovery is vital to prevent loss of meat quality. Thorough field dressing helps remove heat
and bacteria, while promptly chilling the meat is essential for preserving its freshness. Proper
cleaning during processing prevents contamination and spoilage, and careful packing and
freezing help avoid freezer burn. Using a vacuum sealer can further maintain meat quality over
time. Throughout the entire process, working in a clean environment and keeping knives sharp
are key to efficient and effective butchering.
