This week on the Missouri Woods & Water Podcast we get the chance to talk with Matt Winstead, Micah's brother, and his two sons Brennon (12) & Ryker (10) about an awesome story of a buck that one of the boys killed during Missouri's youth season.  Without telling the whole story, both of these young men had a crack at this awesome buck in back to back seasons, which makes it that much more memorable for them and their dad.  The boys did great on their first podcast and congratulations to them and their dad on yet another memory made in the deer woods.  Thanks for listening!

On this episode of GOHUNT’s Western Rookie Podcast, Brian has Whitney Tramel on the podcast to talk about building a life to be able to hunt more!

In this episode, Brian Krebs and Whitney Trammell discuss the different approaches to hunting and the importance of starting with more approachable hunts. They emphasize the value of learning foundational skills and building experience gradually. They also touch on the misconception that hunting success is guaranteed and the impact it can have on new hunters. The conversation highlights the importance of patience, being adaptable, and understanding that hunting is not always about harvesting a trophy animal. Whitney shares her experience of hunting solo and the mental challenges that come with it. She initially felt scared and hesitant, but pushed through her fears and gained confidence. She emphasizes the importance of mindset and doing hard things to build resilience.

Brian also discusses his own experience with solo hunting and the difficulties of staying motivated and engaged without the presence of others. They both acknowledge that solo hunting can be mentally tough, but it also provides an opportunity for personal growth and self-discovery. In this conversation, Whitney and Brian discuss the importance of choosing hunting partners wisely and finding people who are on the same page. They also talk about the different strategies and approaches to hunting, including backpacking deep into the backcountry versus hunting closer to the roads. Whitney shares her experience with her podcast, Wild Strength, where she combines her passion for strength and conditioning with hunting and the outdoors.

• Having a positive mindset and embracing the process of doing hard things can help overcome mental obstacles.
• Solo hunting provides an opportunity for self-discovery and learning, but it can also be mentally tough and require a strong mindset.
• Acknowledging the difficulties of solo hunting and being prepared for the mental challenges can help hunters better navigate the experience. Choose hunting partners wisely and make sure everyone in the group is someone you want to be with.
• There are different strategies and approaches to hunting, such as backpacking deep into the backcountry or hunting closer to the roads.

This week on the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast, John is breaking down his controlled deer hunt at the McAlester Army Ammunition Plant. As soon as John found out he had been selected for the hunt back in June, he immediately began doing his homework and trying to learn as much as he could about the hunt and how it worked. What he found, is that there was not a ton of information out there on what to expect on this particular hunt. As he picked up bits and pieces from other hunters over the months leading up to the hunt, he still had a lot of questions leading up to the weekend of November 8^th. After going through the process and coming home empty handed, he made up his mind to provide as much information as possible to future hunters who drew this coveted tag.

John briefly tells the story of his hunt and what he experienced, but the bulk of this episode is more about the process, the lessons learned, and what he would do differently next time. John lays out all of the rules of the hunt, and also talks about the terrain he encountered, the vegetation, and recommendations on gear to bring. John talks about the challenges of this hunt, and how just because you see lots of deer, does not mean its easy to actually fill a tag. He also shares some thoughts on the quality tag system, and some thoughts on whether or not this hunt may or may not be right for you.

On this episode of Michigan Wild, host Nate Rozeveld welcomes Jake Bollinger, a passionate hunter and habitat manager. They discuss the excitement surrounding the upcoming gun season, family traditions related to hunting, and the importance of processing deer personally. The conversation shifts to hunting access, land management strategies, and the significance of creating wildlife-friendly habitats. They also explore deer movement patterns, the use of technology in habitat management, and the value of community knowledge sharing in hunting. The episode continues with a captivating story about Jake's buck from the current season, which was shot in late October after making an aggressive move because the farmer drove by on a UTV.

Jake knew about this buck and was able to put the puzzle pieces together by finding scrapes and understanding how deer like to bed on his property.  After making the shot the recovery was unique and Jake was in uncharted territory after not hitting the buck ideal. He discussed the challenge of tracking and recovering his deer, particularly after a gut shot, and how waiting until the following morning was critical to recovering his deer. 

Overall you can sense the passion Jake has for hunting and improving the landscape. He isn't afraid of some sweat equity and is always learning and attempting new strategies. He is very relatable to the majority of hunters who find themselves hunting the family farm or own their small piece of heaven. Leaving behind the property better than he found it is the driving force and he is already looking forward to starting habitat improvements this upcoming year.

As the first few weeks of the season progressed Cam had multiple encounters with this deer. He stayed persistent and stuck to his game plan. Every encounter Cam continued to learn more about the buck and how he used the property. All that came together on October 17th when Cam shot his October Lull Buck!

On this episode of The Nomadic Outdoorsman, Dan chats with hunting buddy Austin Reinold about the ups and downs of their hunting season so far.

Dan and Austin started their 2024 hunting season by flying to Alaska and chasing moose and caribou. Although they came home empty handed, the disappointment from the hunt wasn’t quite over. Weeks later Dan discovered more upsetting news on his phone which the two discuss in this podcast episode. Both Dan and Austin have had encounters with their target bucks for this season but have not been able to capitalize on the opportunities. They discuss adjustments to their hunting strategies, improvements to their land and upcoming changes in the weather which they both hope will prove valuable as they try to get a mature buck on the ground in Missouri. With only a few weeks before rifle season they try to figure out what needs to change in order to have success with a bow early in the year.

On this episode of the Wisconsin Sportsman, Pierce is joined by the one and only Dave McChesney for a mid-season catchup and discussion around what they've learned this season since making the switch from hunting out of saddles to stands. The guys cover a wide range of topics including the stress and pressure that can sometimes come along with hunting, the weird and wild story of Dave's successful Michigan hunt, gripes and accolades of saddle hunting and treestand hunting, which gear they feel makes them the most efficient in the woods, how they deploy a hybrid style of hunting to maximize every tree they hang in, the dangers of bow-hangers, which gloves they like the most, how to nap in a saddle, which setup is easiest to pee out of, plans for the upcoming weeks, and lots more! 

Go follow along with Dave on social media and check out the great content he has coming out on his YouTube channel @barefootdave_

On this episode of Michigan WIld, Nate Rozeveld is solo this week. Nate takes the opportunity to do a season update and break down some of his hunts where he saw target deer and discuss the Recurve Debacle. The fall of 2024 has been exciting and challenging for Nate. He has had multiple encounters with target deer every week of October so far. Each encounter has been under different circumstances and yet to reveal a punched tag. 

Facing different crop rotations and an influx of deer density has been part of the challenge and has found Nate hunting multiple October mornings. The morning of the 25th proved to be the start of the Debacle. Nate goes into detail of the hunt and the decisions that lead to the tree he found himself in and what ultimately led to a shot on a buck with his recurve.

The story didn't end with a grip and grin, however Nate still has the desire and confidence to continue hunting with his recurve. October is almost to a close with some good hunts left. Nate will continue to make strategic moves to get in front of a target deer or kill a whitetail with his recurve.

Youth weekend has come and gone in Oklahoma, but this week on the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast John is sharing some of the success that his family had. It was hot and dry with bad winds for much of the weekend, but that didn't stop John from getting his niece and nephew out for a little deer hunting. It turned into a bit of a grind, but eventually they were able to get on a deer and fill the family freezer. In part 2 of this episode, John talks about the unusually warm weather Oklahoma and much of the country is experiencing, and how John thinks it will affect not only the upcoming rut movement, but also the late season deer hunting success rates.

On this episode, hostCourtney Wiliamson sits down with a few buddies of his that have had some crazy encounters in the outdoors. Courtney talks about his crazy stories that have happened to him that most people will not believe but he swears they happened. Most outdoorsmen who have spent a prolonged period in the woods have had experiences that they can't explain. If you like crazy encounters and some good spookystories then this podcast is for you!

On this week of The Last 7 Days, Shane Loney joins Nate Rozeveld to recap the 3rd week of Michigan's archery season. Shane's fall started with a hiccup as he had an accident while setting a treestand. After some surgery and having his thumb wrapped and splint he hasn't let that slow him down. Fortunately he is still able to shoot his bow, and has some great friends that have helped him set stands and make strategic moves.

Up until this point of the season both guys talk about their personal experiences with seeing some great deer and having some solid sits that just haven't had the desirable outcomes. Nate feels he was just too passive on a few sits and it cost him an opportunity at a target buck. Shane has been getting some daylight pictures of his target deer, but hasn't found himself quite there yet either.

However both Nate and Shane are eagerly anticipating the upcoming cold front paired with the later part of October. This is when both guys move into targeting specific transition areas next to bedding and feel it's a great opportunity to catch a mature buck on his feet, either in the morning or evening.
