Show notes

On this episode, I'm joined by a Midwestern whitetail genius, adventure bowhunter, and Outdoor Writer Clint Casper as he made the trip to Pennsylvania to spend the weekend hiking the mountains with me. We hiked over 20 miles in search of elk sheds and scouting for mountain bucks. Bringing Clint's farm country whitetail knowledge and his experience hunting the west brought a unique perspective to looking at how these mountain bucks are potentially using the terrain. We covered some of the listener questions, scouting tactics, chasing dreams and much more! If you don't pick up anything else from this one, I'm sure you will still get a good laugh!

I got peaked…
Explaining wind and mountain thermals
Finding the “why” behind deer sign

Ep. 053: Spring Mountain Buck Scouting with Johnny Stewart and Greg Litzinger Mar 04, 2019

Show notes

On this episode, I'm joined by accomplished public land whitetail hunters, Johnny Stewart and Greg Litzinger. These guys joined me for an overnight scouting trip in the Pennsylvania mountains this past weekend. I picked a spot on the map that none of us have been to and we collaborated on going in and speed scouting it for a day and a half. All three of us have different tactics when it comes to scouting and hunting, which was great to learn from these unique perspectives. Be advised, this is a casual campfire conversation with some explicit language and a lot of fun being had.

Topics:

Looking at a new piece of big woods
Food sources
Spring scouting in the snow
Hunting specific bucks
Deer in the mountains don’t get big because people let them get that big
Reading rub lines
What to look for when scouting a new area
Expectations with mountain bucks
How to hunt the sign that you find scouting
